This bachelor's party was the perfect portrayal of a rotten lifestyle. Now, the bar was completely chaotic; it was filled with beautiful female pole dancers and muscular men who only wore red underwear. Empty beer bottles littered the floors, and even Yan Yan and An Ziyan couldn't escape. An Ziyan, in particular, was forced to chug a lot of beer. This was practically a tradition that the groom at a bachelor's party was not allowed to be sober. With deafening music playing in the background, An Ziyan leaned back on the sofa and rubbed the pressure points on his head, trying to ease his headaches.

In contrast, the other situation was a lot quieter. Mai Ding came out from the washroom to see Su Xiaomi turn on the TV, and sat down next to him. Although his mood and mind were not as scared and nervous as before, Mai Ding still felt as if there was something heavy weighing him down. Until he got married to An Ziyan, his heart would not settle. All he could do to distract himself was to watch TV.

The news talked about an urgent matter: "Tonight, at XX resort, after a man was raped, he was brutally murdered. The police have already confirmed the identity of the criminal." At that moment, a man's face appeared on the screen: he was bald, had an evil and murderous expression, and the dragon tattoo on his neck was horrifying. The news anchor continued: "This man is still on the run. If the public sees this man, please notify the police at once. We would also like to remind everyone to be careful when travelling at night. We will continue to monitor this case as it progresses."

Mai Ding was shocked and a coldness began to spread from within his heart. The XX resort that they mentioned on TV was the location of his wedding. He was very anxious and he kept having bad feeling at the bottom of his stomach. Nothing will happen will happen, right? Logically speaking, people next to him would probably tell Mai Ding to calm down at a time like this. However, Su Xiaomi was even more afraid than Mai Ding. He turned off the TV, locked the door, and pulled the curtains shut. From a little crack in the curtains, he peeked outside and said: "Maimai, did you hear the news just now? The target of this criminal is men! That means we're in danger! What if we've already been targeted? What if I get OOed and then XXed, what should I do?"

"We can't be that unlucky, right? Aren't all endings supposed to be good?" This sentence wasn't really said to comfort Su Xiaomi, it was more to comfort himself.

"That's not for certain, what if she suddenly changes her mind? What do we do? What do we do? What do we do? I once told Yan Yan to hire some people from the Shaolin Temple to protect me, be he didn't believe me. He and An Ziyan are able to deal with gangsters, but what about us? We, who are fragile like a flower, can break with a gentle pinch."

Mai Ding felt increasingly disturbed by Su Xiaomi's words and debated on whether to call An Ziyan or not. A frightened Su Xiaomi scooted up to Mai Ding and said in a hushed voice: "If you were raped by the murderer on the night before you wedding, that would be a real tragedy."

"Shut up! Don't jinx me, okay?"

Su Xiaomi patted Mai Ding's shoulder: "But, Maimai, I will protect you. Fortunately, I came prepared." Su Xiaomi took out his huge backpack and beneath all of his snacks, he pulled out a hammer, pepper spray, a big watermelon knife, and a bunch of other weird things. Su Xiaomi held the watermelon knife in his hands: "The snacks are only my coverup in order to make the enemy feel relaxed. Then, they're done for! Therefore, rest assured because I'm here! No one will destroy your wedding."

Mai Ding stared at Su Xiaomi with cold eyes: "I think the person I need to defend myself from is you."

At that moment, lightning flashed and thunder roared, piercing the heavens and the earth. Large raindrops fell from the sky and hit the trees, roofs, and windows below. He clearly checked the weather forecast, so why was it suddenly raining? Will the rain stop by tomorrow? Mai Ding frowned and looked out the window. He felt like the weak lights from the street lamps were about to be consumed by the darkness at any moment. In his heart, Mai Ding silently prayed that everything will go according to plan tomorrow. It will! Right?
