Chapter 170 Misunderstanding, Straight Man
Just as I was about to enter the room, that annoying guy called me back.
The other person walked over and peeked into the room, asking in confusion, "Hey, Boss, there are so many rooms, why do you two have to stay in one? And your room looks pretty big, how about I stay with you? There's strength in numbers, and when we gather together, we don't have to worry about any bad guys from outside.
I'm a little scared to be alone. Of course, if you don't want me to, I can squat at your door. I'm not afraid of the cold, and I don't need a bed!"
Ji Changqing twitched the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help showing some sarcasm on his stern face.
He bent down slightly and moved closer to the annoying idiot, staring at the active man with cold eyes at close range.
He spoke word by word, leaving no room for doubt, "Go next door."
The other party quickly raised his hands in surrender, shrinking his neck and slowly retreating, "Okay, I'll go next door, I'll go next door, don't be angry, boss, you're like this and I'm scared."
Just as Jiang Sheng finished speaking, He Rui's puzzled voice suddenly rang out from not far away, "Hey, are you two kissing? So close?"
This one sentence caused Ji Changqing and Jiang Sheng beside him to have their expressions twisted for a moment.
He Rui pushed the automatically closing small window on the edge of the French window in the room and called out to the two people, "Stop kissing! Come here! Come here and listen to what that sound is outside. Why do I feel like I hear a wolf howling?"
"I didn't." Ji Changqing looked at Jiang Sheng with disgust, took a few steps back, and quickly moved away from the man.
"Don't talk nonsense! I don't like men!!"
Jiang Sheng also explained with a look of horror on his face.
He Rui was surprised by the strong reaction of these two people to his joke. He felt a little puzzled and asked in confusion, "I just made a joke, what are you two talking about?"
Looking at the awkward expressions of the two men, he felt for a moment that there might be something fishy going on between Brother Ji and Lao Liu.
Indeed, this can also explain why Brother Ji would forgive Lao Liu unconditionally and without reason again and again, no matter how badly the other party behaved.
His mind raced, and he inexplicably felt that he had eaten a strange melon. He Rui shrugged his shoulders and turned to look out the window as if it was none of his business.
To be honest, he doesn't care about any emotional entanglement between the two people.
Even if his two buddies were fighting fiercely, it would not prevent him from eating two pounds of dumplings without dipping them in garlic in one meal.
He called out to the two again, "It's okay for you two to suck your heads off. We have some serious business to attend to now. Stop talking nonsense and come over here and listen. Is that a wolf howling outside?"
He Rui scanned every visible area outside to see if there were any wild animals.
He pushed the window open a little further and leaned forward to listen carefully.
After listening to it, he impatiently pulled the gas mask off his head.
Listen carefully to the noise outside.
There was indeed a howling sound, but I didn't know which direction it came from.
A slender figure came up to him.
He Rui tilted his head and asked, "Brother Ji, do you think this is a dog or a wolf? I can't quite tell."
The other party did not answer him, but continued to struggle and explain the previous question.
"I can't possibly be with Jiang Sheng..."
He Rui was speechless, "Alright, Tietie, I was just joking. If we didn't kiss, then we didn't kiss. You don't need to explain it over and over again. Why bother with this? You haven't broken any laws."
And there are no outsiders here.
He doesn't discriminate either.
After He Rui finished speaking, he saw Ji Changqing open his mouth and move his thin lips, as if he wanted to say something, but then he closed his mouth inexplicably, pursing his lips so tightly that they were bloodless.
She lowered her eyes and looked at him silently without saying a word.
He doesn't look very happy.
He Rui scratched his cheek, wondering if maybe his brother Ji really hated being joked about like this?
Just as he hated Lao Liu's implicit meaning, Ji Changqing also didn't want to be involved with anyone?
Hate being made fun of about this attribute?
He Rui thought about it carefully and realized that he was indeed wrong and that he had spoken without thinking.
In essence, what he just said was really no different from the nonsense that Lao Liu said.
He would be angry if he heard it, and Ji Changqing would naturally be angry too if he heard it.
A joke is only a joke if the person who hears it finds it funny. If the other person gets angry, then the so-called joke should be called offensive.
He Rui honestly admitted his mistake, "I'm sorry, Ji..."
The other party's voice also sounded at the same time, "It's a wolf."
"? Ah?...Oh." He Rui almost forgot what he had asked before. He paused and found that the other party was silent after he finished speaking. He then apologized to the other party.
"I'm sorry, Brother Ji, I'm sorry. Next time I won't talk nonsense or make such jokes again."
He has a bad memory and forgot something.
When I think about it, I realize that the other party's reaction of being eager to defend themselves and distance themselves from the matter is actually quite normal.
After all, his brother Ji is homophobic.
...
He Rui confirmed that there were wolves outside, but the tension that the BGM had originally brought him was completely eliminated by his previous conversation with Ji Changqing and his own reflection and apology.
He thought, if it is a wolf, it is a wolf. What can he do?
Judging from the howling just now, I can hear that there are more than one or two wolves in the distance.
There are quite a few.
The elevator was out of service due to a power outage, but this luxury hotel, in addition to the fire escape, also had a large staircase that led directly from the first floor to their place.
This place is a hotel after all.
Apart from the messy places downstairs like the restaurant, banquet hall, sauna, etc. that were flooded by the tsunami when they came up, the upstairs was full of rooms and beds, so there was no need to squeeze together.
But now they are not really staying in a hotel and can sleep soundly in their own room.
The door was broken and couldn't be locked. He was not deaf and heard what Ji Changqing and Lao Liu said.
Indeed, there is still the possibility that an evolver might sneak in at night and set a fire, or a wolf might sneak in and take Lao Liu away.
Even worse, a terrifying giant tornado might suddenly form in the middle of the night and sweep towards them.
So there needs to be someone on guard, always alert to whether there is any danger outside.
He Rui felt that he was the most suitable candidate.
His brother Ji needs to rest, and Lao Liu is in a listless state, so he is in the best condition.
He actually agreed with the idea of three people staying in the same room.
But since his brother Ji is not happy about it, then forget it.
What his brother Ji said must be a first-level instruction.
He Rui asked for another pistol, loaded it with bullets, and put it in his waist bag.
Just in case, in case something really outrageous happens, a wolf happens to run into the hotel they are in, come up the stairs, push open the door and bite people.
