Zhou Sheng frowned.
Yu Hao said, "Did he wake up naturally?"
They had already been sleeping for a very long time, and Yu Hao had even experienced a dream within a dream. Zhou Sheng crouched down to pick up the coin. "Let's talk about it in reality ba."
"Un..." Yu Hao looked at Zhou Sheng and suddenly said, "You're too smart."
"How does it feel to see me get hit?" Zhou Sheng asked with a smile.
Yu Hao, "I was a little afraid, but it was still okay. I believe that you've always had a solution, so you wouldn't just let him beat you up as he pleased. But I'm always worried. What if he comes knocking on our door soon?"
"So I got Kaikai to arrange for a meet-up in three days." Zhou Sheng said, "It's just that I misjudged the time a little. I didn't expect this good-for-nothing Zhao Liang to lunge at the street so soon...By the time we meet Ren Chong, it'll be a chance for us to hand over the real goods."
"You decided to give it to him?!" Yu Hao asked in surprise.
"No, this is the second trap." Zhou Sheng smiled, "Trust me. I've already designed strategies for dealing with all three of their demands. I'm currently waiting for them to walk right into my traps themselves."
Yu Hao said, "Ai, do you still need me to cooperate with you without knowing anything?"
"Not anymore," Zhou Sheng answered, "We only needed your unaware cooperation this one time with Zhao Liang. It doesn't feel good to be kept in the dark, I understand that. Let's go home first? I'll slowly explain everything to you when we get back."
Yu Hao said, "No, explain it clearly to me now."
Zhou Sheng pondered for a moment, then said, "I've never been able to find the most crucial point for resolution previously, so I wanted to try a way for you to be able to activate the Golden Crow Wheel as well. But the conjecture of Zhao Liang's subordinates did give me some inspiration..."
Yu Hao, "Me?!"
Yu Hao frowned. Zhou Sheng scratched his head and said, "Yes. Let you obtain the right to activate the Golden Crow Wheel first, then there'll be a chance for us to act separately. We'll have to cooperate first before we can deal with Ren Chong. After all, with the precedence of Zhao Liang's case, Ren Chong definitely wouldn't make light of his enemy."
Yu Hao said, "How do I cooperate? Tell me ba."
Zhou Sheng thought for a bit, then leaped onto the railings and sat down. He motioned for Yu Hao to go over, and the two of them watched the Golden Crow Wheel like that. Zhou Sheng said, "I wanted to use the Golden Crow Wheel as bait and hand it over to Ren Chong of my own accord, as well as take him into a dream at least once to prove that the Golden Crow Wheel is real. After that, before he figures out what to do with it, he would definitely be very much on guard and wouldn't give me the chance to activate it."
Yu Hao knew he has never been able to reach a verdict on any one of Zhou Sheng's plans through his own reasoning, so he only needed to listen most of the time. He asked, "What next, then?"
"Next," Zhou Sheng said, "it'll be up to you to think of a way to activate the Golden Crow Wheel, then pull me into your dream, and we'll deal with Ren Chong together again." When he spoke, Zhou Sheng slashed through the air with two of his fingers, and a memory impression materialized in front of him — it was the way to deal with Ren Chong that he had imagined.
Yu Hao didn't utter a word and just watched with a slight frown.
Zhou Sheng took the Golden Crow Wheel and went up to Ren Chong, then, Ren Chong left the Golden Crow Wheel behind, and Zhou Sheng was taken away to be locked up in a sealed off room. Huang Ting would then steal the Golden Crow Wheel after Ren Chong leaves and hand it to Yu Hao. Yu Hao lay in bed, closed his eyes, and entered his dream.
