“It’s so late, why go out?” Xiao Le was the first to reply. “Besides, the dormitory is closed now.” Actually, if they wanted to go out now, they still could, since the dormitory would still be open before 11pm. However, he was too lazy to gp. It was already so late; where did Jinzhou want to go?
Xiao Le shook his head and no longer paid any attention.
Lu Yunfeng also had no intention of going out. Tang Zhaoming was already in bed.
Yu Jinzhou could only leave himself. He was about to go out, when Yang Mingwei suddenly came out and closed the door before locking it. “Why are you going out so late?”
He was much more agile than before, but on closer inspection, his movements were still very sluggish. His voice didn’t sound any different from usual, but in fact, it was ear-piercing and unpleasant.
Yu Jinzhou’s face grew darker and darker, and his sense of foreboding worsened. Yang Mingwei was smiling, but it gave Yu Jinzhou the creeps.
As the talisman in his pocket grew hotter and hotter, his face turned very pale and his heart surged with stormy waves. If he had only believed 50% of Lu Chengfu’s words before, it was now at 90%.
This Yang Mingwei was very strange.
He didn’t dare reveal anything to Yang Mingwei. Seeing that he was standing motionless at the door, it was clear that he didn’t intend to let Yu Jinzhou out. Fortunately, Yu Jinzhou was still calm. Even though he foresaw a terrifying event in the future, his face grew calmer and he nodded. “Forget it, it’s too late. I’ll go tomorrow!”
Yang Mingwei stared at him for a moment, as if to confirm that he really had no intention of leaving, then shifted his gaze and clumsily locked the door.
As Yu Jinzhou walked back to his bed, he inadvertently saw out of the corner of his eye how Yang Mingwei’s smile turned creepier as he locked the door. Yu Jinzhou’s heart turned cold.
He now really believed Chengfu’s sister-in-law’s foreboding words.
No matter how calm Yu Jinzhou was, he was scared witless by his own conjecture.
Afraid, he sat on his bed and sent a message to Lu Chengfu when Yang Mingwei wasn’t looking, asking him to help find his sister-in-law, but the message never went through.
Yu Jinzhou tried a few times and even borrowed Xiao Le and Lu Yunfeng’s phones, but failed to send the message.
Yu Jinzhou’s forehead was covered in cold sweat. At that moment, Yang Mingwei, who had been ignoring him, suddenly turned his head and smiled at him. Yu Jinzhou was so shocked that he almost dropped the phone in his hand, and his face grew paler.
He suppressed the tumultuous waves in his heart and struggled to maintain the calm on his face. Then, ignoring the strange smile on Yang Mingwei’s face, he suddenly said to Lu Yunfeng, “Yunfeng, how about we sleep together tonight?” He did want to ask Xiao Le, but not to mention that the bed was too small, Xiao Le was too noisy and Yu Jinzhou couldn’t take it.
Thus, he could only choose Lu Yunfeng.
To be honest, Lu Yunfeng and Yu Jinzhou didn’t get along especially. Even though they had lived in the same dorm for a few years, they usually only nodded at each other and hardly exchanged words. So, when he heard Yu Jinzhou’s words, Lu Yunfeng choked on a mouthful of water and stared with wide eyes, thinking that he had misheard.
“What did you say? I didn’t hear you clearly!”
On the side, Xiao Le and Tang Zhaoming’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets when they heard Yu Jinzhou’s words. They looked at Yu Jinzhou in disbelief.
Yu Jinzhou ignored them and said to Lu Yunfeng again, “I don’t want to sleep alone tonight. How about it? Let’s sleep together. It just so happens that I have some questions to ask you about my thesis!”
