The sea breeze whistled in his ears, the salty wind brushing against Jiang Yu's cheeks. An Ning's magnified face was so close, and the touch on his neck felt so real, so real that a shiver ran through him.
Jiang Yu swallowed hard, managing to squeeze out a sentence from his throat, "How do you want to act?"
It's said that you should try to go along with the person when they're having a mental breakdown. Has he gone along with them enough now?
Surely we can't just slit his throat, can we?
A million curses ran through Jiang Yu's mind, but he still managed to force a very awkward smile. "How do you want to act? Let me see if I can cooperate."
His tone was very gentle, as if he was afraid of accidentally angering An Ning, so he didn't dare to breathe loudly.
The other person was silent for about ten seconds before replying, "I want to play a psychopathic killer. Can you let me kill them and then dismember them?"
silence.
Endless silence.
It was a deathly silence.
This time, there was truly no sound other than the sea breeze.
Jiang Yu felt that he had already stopped breathing.
He was scared to death by An Ning.
What kind of talk is this?
After killing them, they dismembered them. And then what?
After dismembering the body, did you sew it back together with thread?
That's an absolute joke.
But Jiang Yu didn't dare to refute, so after much hesitation, he decided to go along with An Ning's words, "I think it's okay, but these kinds of psychopathic killers all have henchmen. How about I become your henchman and you go kill others and collect their bodies?"
Jiang Yu's words were unambiguous, decisively betraying the rest of them.
It was unclear whether An Ning thought his idea was good or decided to deal with him later, because what An Ning said next was this:
"So who do you think is most suitable to be dismembered?"
An Ning asked very seriously, even touching her chin as she did so, "Apart from you..."
Upon hearing the prefix "peaceful," Jiang Yu no longer dared to hesitate.
She blurted out, almost without thinking and unafraid of offending anyone, "I think you can give Pei Jinnian a try!"
"With such good looks, he'll still look great even after they break up!"
An Ning's eyes widened slightly, filled with surprise. "If you put it that way... it seems to make some sense."
"Let's go then, let's go find Pei Jinnian."
Since they were leaving without warning, Jiang Yu didn't dare to object and could only follow An Ning, occasionally pointing her down the wrong path in an attempt to delay her from finding the person.
I just hope that when Pei Jinnian sees the surveillance footage, he will believe that he was just a pitiful person who had no choice but to become someone else's underling.
But he was wrong. He remembered the route Pei Jinnian and Meng Qi took when they escaped. Now that so much time has passed, their locations have long since changed. The wrong paths he pointed out to An Ning led directly to the hiding place that Pei Jinnian and Meng Qi had found.
Seeing the person who suddenly appeared in front of him, Jiang Yu felt a little overwhelmed.
Would anyone believe him if he said he really didn't know they were here?
Even his fans probably wouldn't believe it, right?
They've already gone straight for the heart of the enemy... Could it be that they deliberately gave the wrong directions?
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he memorized everyone's escape routes perfectly...
But Jiang Yu really isn't that amazing.
Just as Jiang Yu was about to say something to ease the suffocatingly awkward atmosphere, his temporary leader spoke up, "The way you led us was pretty good."
With just one sentence, he successfully sent Jiang Yu to the guillotine.
Feeling two gazes suddenly directed at him, Jiang Yu froze, feeling as if he was about to suffocate.
Why did he do that?
What is he trying to achieve?
Can An Ning really resolve this in front of so many cameras?
That's really hard to say...
Jiang Yu swallowed hard, looked away, avoided eye contact with Meng Qi and Pei Jinnian, and acted as if he were invisible.
"Do you two want to fight me?"
The question was too gentle, and Jiang Yu couldn't bear to listen. So, after An Ning finished speaking, he added, "What she means is that she's having a moment of acting urges right now and wants to play a psychopathic killer, and you guys are her victims, the victims who get killed and dismembered..."
Jiang Yu rambled on and on, and after he finished speaking, the gaze fixed on him changed from two lines to three.
One of the death stares came from Anning.
"What nonsense are you spouting?" An Ning looked at him, her face expressionless.
It's clear that Anning is a little angry now.
Jiang Yu didn't know if it was because he had become bolder after starting something or what, but suddenly he didn't find An Ning scary anymore. He just repeated what he had said, "Didn't you say you were acting and wanted to play a psychopathic killer? I said..."
His uninterrupted speech was abruptly cut short. As he stared at the dagger that was only a centimeter away from his mouth, Jiang Yu broke out in a cold sweat, and his lips trembled uncontrollably.
He was so close to getting a cleft lip...
An Ning looked at him with a gentle smile. "Why did you stop? Tell me."
Jiang Yu closed his eyes and took two steps back. "From now on, I am mute."
After saying that, he even made a zipping motion, as if afraid that An Ning wouldn't believe him.
Seeing this, Pei Jinnian and Meng Qi both had strange expressions. After An Ning finished her intimidation and turned around, Pei Jinnian didn't wait for An Ning to speak first. Instead, he spoke first, "Hit her."
Very decisive, I really like this kind of personality.
"Then you don't need to play along with my act."
An Ning spoke as if she were showing great mercy, her expression completely serious.
Pei Jinnian was taken aback upon hearing her words, and after a moment said, "Then I'm very happy."
"Don't get too excited yet!"
Before she could finish speaking, her fist came flying. An Ning's clenched fist grazed Pei Jinnian's cheek. If Pei Jinnian hadn't tilted his head at the crucial moment, half of his face would probably be swollen by now.
An Ning's offensive came swiftly and fiercely, giving Pei Jinnian almost no time to prepare, with an unwavering determination to beat him to a pulp.
After dodging several times, Pei Jinnian finally launched his first counterattack: when An Ning tried to grab his collar, he preemptively grabbed An Ning's neck, but he didn't use his full strength. After pushing her onto the boulder, Pei Jinnian stared at An Ning and said, word by word, "With so many surveillance cameras around, aren't you going to restrain yourself a little?"
He was coaxing her like a child, if you ignored the hand gripping Anning's neck.
Even though Pei Jinnian didn't use much force, An Ning was indeed being choked, and her breathing became difficult. She forced a smile and said, "Is that so?"
Pei Jinnian didn't understand what she was laughing at, but when he realized it, his and An Ning's positions had been switched. An Ning was holding Pei Jinnian by the neck and answered his question in the same tone, "I was quite restrained. I didn't dare to pull out a knife from beginning to end."
