19 Days - The Bro Code

• 20 •

Cold wind struck Zheng Xi's face softly, and the car lights behind him gradually faded with distance.

"Ah, you're here, about time."

Zheng Xi stood before He Tian, his hands moving to fold against his chest, "mm, what are we doing here?"

The raven haired boy stood up as he was leaning against a pole, "I've taken care of She Li,"

Zheng Xi's eyes lit up with curiosity, and yet he still felt doubt within him.

He Tian's face relaxed, making his facial features more sharp, "you don't have to worry anymore, I expected some sort of a tha-"

"-thank you."

He again grinned with the same glint in his eyes, "that's what I like to hear, but there's still one problem."

Zheng Xi was gullible enough to give He Tian the reaction he wanted.

"What problem?"

"Oh, I think you know,"

"I don't?"

"Trust me, I think you-"

"Tell me what the problem is, dipshit, it's cold."

"I've noticed you've been in a bad mood lately, just like now- you've snapped a few times."

Zheng Xi's raised an eyebrow at this accusation, since when has he been moody?

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Hm, okay, you can figure it out on your own," which translates to, "I'm gonna enjoy seeing more of this chaotic behaviour for my own entertainment."

"If that's all, I'll be leaving,"

He Tian nodded, and that's when Zheng Xi turned to leave.

He Tian sighed out, his breath turning white into the exposed air, something She Li had said, stuck with him.

"Seeing him in danger, crying and screaming- It brings me joy~"

"Psychopath."

He lit a cigarette and inhaled the nicotine, calming his nerves, "Mo, brings joy?"
