There is a silence in the air and the cold wind slowly blowing inside the room, making it colder for Wu Xie and he can't help but tremble a little. Yu Qin saw that and threw a coat hanging on the hanger at him. He seems to mumble something like troublesome or weak, and even though Wu Xie hears it he doesn't say anything, because Wu Xie himself also thinks that he has caused trouble for the people around him. That he is lucky that a lot of people are worried about him.


Wu Xie said his thanks, looked at him questioningly, and couldn't help but ask again

"So.. what is it that you came for?"

Yu Qin immediately cut to the chase, "I came to take back my belongings", when Wu Xie heard this, he hesitated awhile in case he have heard him wrong,

"Didn't you say that you will not take back the things that you already gave?" he thoughts 'You even got mad when I wanted to give it to Jin Ye'


Yu Qin, "When it is not doing what it is doing anymore, of course, I have to take it back", hearing this Wu Xie becomes confused. According to Xiao Ge and Pang Zi, the necklace he gives has saved him many times, why is he saying that it no longer has an effect?

Wu Xie took a glance at him and he didn't seem to be faking it when he said it didn't have an effect anymore, so he took off the necklace and gave it to him. Yu Qin looks at it and takes it, after taking a look at it for a long time, he looks at Wu Xie sharply

"Where have you been? You must have gone somewhere far from home" his last words don't seem like asking but a statement. It seems like Yu Qin knows that something has happened.


Wu Xie doesn't know why but his heart is beating fast, "I indeed have gone somewhere far, and even managed to escape the death door once again", Yu Qin frowns and looks back at the necklace again. Footsteps can be heard coming and also in a hurry.

"Tian Zhen!!" Pang Zi shouted in a hurry, his hand still grabbing the tongs and scissors, when he saw a man there, Pang Zi already wanted to attack him with the things in his hand when he saw a familiar figure and immediately stopped.


"Yu Qin!! And you! Fu Yin and Yu Yao?!" Yu Yao squeaks happily and comes to snuggle with Pang Zi. Pang Zi who is still confused only pats his head and looks at Wu Xie, which he returns with a smile.

"He came to visit" Wu Xie said, and when his expression was still that stupid, Wu Xie tried to change the subject.

"How do you know he is here?" Wu Xie asked

"Of course, it is Xiao Ge. I originally wanted to come to ask you to eat when your food is ready, but Xiao Ge suddenly ran here and only said someone is coming, so I immediately ran here" Pang Zi said, Wu Xie didn't know when Xiao Ge had stood in front of the door, but he surely has a great sense when intruder comes.

The once bustling night, the sound of cups clinking and meat sizzling suddenly settled down and immediately turned into a very awkward situation with the appearance of three uninvited guests. One with a very weird appearance and two is not even a human. There were not a lot of people coming, only a few very close friends of The Iron Triangle, mainly the event was held because Pang Zi wanted a feast, and some wanted to visit Wu Xie to look at his condition, who knows that something big like this would happen.

"Wu Xie.. this?" Pang Zi has become speechless and Xiao Hua has even frowned and built up his defence. Wu Xie could only laugh awkwardly

"It is fine, everyone can enjoy their food freely" Wu Xie said.

"How could we enjoy it? You should at least give me an explanation" Pang Zi said and Wu Xie wanted to say something when Yu Qin said

"I have come and you are not happy?" Yu Qin's tone is not kind at all, it makes people shudder and Pang Zi can't complain anymore, but Xiao Hua is not the type of person who is easy to be feel intimidated


"Why would we be happy when someone threatened us here, even taking his weapon around" Xiao Hua said sarcastically, Wu Xie who felt that the atmosphere had gotten cold and dangerous, he immediately got up and tried to cut off their death stare

"Stop it.. we are here to have fun, not to fight" Wu Xie gave each of them a piece of meat, telling them to eat.

"Why are you looking... Au!" Pang Zi wanted to ask about his appearance but Wu Xie kicked him on his feet, gesturing him to shut up. The dinner is considered ruined by some people, but Wu Xie could still consider this night peaceful since no one is starting a fight at least.


Fu Yin and Yu Yao are really an eater, they eat so much that Wu Xie thinks that they are going to swallow the whole table, Kan Jian and the others have to stop by the supermarket again to buy meat. The main dish is mostly meat, so Wu Xie couldn't eat the dish with so much oil in it, he just munched on vegetables, chicken soup, and salad. Pang Zi suddenly put a big glass of herbal drink in front of him.


"I have boiled it for a long time, no matter how bitter it is, you have to drink it all"

Wu Xie could only smile and hold the glass in his hand, slowly sipping it, no matter how many times he drank it, he couldn't get used to the bitterness, when Pang Zi saw that he already drinking it, he nodded and sat back down, enjoying his beer and meat. Wu Xie sighed, the bitterness in the drink was all written on his face. He put his head on his chin, slowly twirling the cup, and sipping it little by little. A hand from the side comes and gives him a candy, Wu Xie looks at it and at the person who gives it to him, smiles, and takes it away

Wu Xie, "Where did you get it"

"Shopping" Xiao Ge replied, since there was not a lot of candy stored, Xiao Ge must have gotten some when they were buying ingredients.

"I can give you something that they can't and yet you are willing to stay here suffering?" Yu Qin suddenly commented beside him, slowly munching away the meat on his plate.

"If I agree, wouldn't I be able to get out anymore", the stares Yu Qin gives let Wu Xie know that he has said something wrong, and feels sorry, so he decides to shut up and change the topic.


"The reason you come, it is not only to get back your necklace right? There must be something that made you come so far away here", Yu Qin smirked and their gazes met

"You.. have something latching into you" when Yu Qin said that, Wu Xie couldn't help but feel cold all of a sudden, his eyes trembled, but quickly hid them away. To be honest, since coming back, Wu Xie has begun to feel weird and his body is always warm as if he had a fever, but he never really thought it was serious up until Yu Qin mentioned it.


"So you and I, have to go there once again," Yu Qin said, and Wu Xie's heart is about to fall.

'I have to go back again!!!'
