LBOT-43

Yibo got out of the car and opened his umbrella after he told them to stay still. The sound of rain pummeling the umbrella was loud.

Xiao Zhan, who was only 10 meters away, stood there pointing a gun at this place and did not budge.

Fuck. Yibo had planned to kill him until yesterday, but when he saw Xiao Zhan, he changed his mind again.

Yibo walked forward while holding an umbrella. The rain soaked his pants and shoes, but he didn’t mind.

He could see Xiao Zhan’s face clearly even when he was only 2-3m away.

His skin was slightly tanned, his eyes still looked like those of a wounded cat, and the sight of him aiming a gun drenched in rain made him look captivating.

With the gun in front of him, Yibo stopped walking.

“Long time no see.”

Xiao Zhan didn’t even move with his gun still pointing at him.

“I guess you still don’t want me to hear your voice.”

Yibo smiled and walked forward. The nozzle landed squarely on his left chest as he got closer.

Xiao Zhan raised his eyes and glared at Yibo.

“Where is Kim Yaan?”

Yibo grabbed the nuzzle, pushed it to the side, and attempted to take another step forward.

However, Xiao Zhan refused to let him approach and aimed the gun under his chin. With the intention of blowing up his head at any time.

The two’s eyes were intertwined.

Wang Yibo, whom he saw after a year, had a more relaxed expression than the demon-like expression he saw on the screen.

Despite the loaded gun under his chin, he didn’t blink an eye and appeared as happy as if he had received a bouquet of flowers.

“Your brother is fine. I also put his fingers back together. Of course, I don’t know if it will stick well.”

“…”

“I’ll let you talk to him now if you want.”

When Xiao Zhan did not respond, he dialed a number.

The figure of Kim Yaan soon appeared in the video. He was dressed in a hospital gown and had bandages on his finger. He was in better condition than when he first saw him yesterday morning.

He shouted at Xiao Zhan with a surprised face.

[You come here? Did you come alone? I told you not to come,]

Tuk, and the phone hung up.

Xiao Zhan took his gaze away from the screen and glared at Wang Yibo in front of him. The relief that Yibo did not harm Kim Yaan softened his ferocious spirit.

Yibo smiled and asked.

“Can I put an umbrella over you now? I don’t want you to get rained on.”

Yibo took a step forward, grabbed the gun aimed beneath his chin, and slowly set it aside. Xiao Zhan walked in under the umbrella.

The silence between the two was broken by the sound of rain. Yibo held out his hand while looking at Xiao Zhan.

“It’s been a while since we met. A handshake is okay, right?”

“Don’t play tricks.”

He suddenly grabbed Xiao Zhan’s hand. When Xiao Zhan tried to pull away, Yibo pulled him with force.

Xiao Zhan lost his balance and was dragged into Yibo’s arms as his body moved forward. Xiao Zhan tried to push him away, but Yibo hugged him tightly.

Xiao Zhan was embarrassed by the unexpected action, but he was feeling a tingling pain in his neck at the time.

Xiao Zhan’s eyes widened. Yibo took a syringe from the inside of his sleeve and inserted it into Xiao Zhan’s neck.

When the drug went in, he felt a stiff pain in his neck.

Xiao Zhan pushed Yibo away, pulled the syringe out of his neck, and aimed the gun at him again.

However, Wang Yibo quickly grabbed the gun, threw it aside, and grabbed Xiao Zhan’s neck with one hand.

His breathing became more rapid, and his eyes widened. He tried to take Yibo’s hand, but his entire body couldn’t muster the strength.

Wang Yibo pushed the syringe with half the drug in front of him and smiled and a stiff pain came to his neck.

“Sorry. There still some.”

He couldn’t tell if the suffocation was caused by the medicine or by Yibo strangling him. His vision was becoming increasingly hazy.

He threw the syringe to the ground to see if the medicine was completely injected. Xiao Zhan staggered backward, drew his knife, and swung it around.

Xiao Zhan redirected the knife and swung it again, but his hand loses strength and it falls to the floor. His eyelids trembled, and his breathing became increasingly fast.

Yibo, who approached cautiously, kicked the knife to the side with his foot.

Xiao Zhan finally sat down, barely raising his head to look at Wang Yibo. Fuck. Bastard…

Rain poured down his cheeks. He opened his mouth to speak, but no sound came out.

Yibo sat down in front of him and placed his lips against his ear.

“Welcome back.”

His voice felt as distant as a dream.

“I’ll preserve you nicely, just wait a little bit.”

His consciousness faded away as there was a buzzing sound. He reached out and tried to grab the gun again, but to no avail.

He fell backward and blacked out as he felt himself sinking into the ground.

The bloody Xiao Zhan woke up in a shabby warehouse. He frowned as he noticed bugs and rats crawling under his feet.

He took a deep breath and looked around, but all he saw was a drum.

He tried to stand up, but his legs refused to cooperate. He slumped into his seat without hesitation. He even attempted to crawl away.

At that moment, a creepy sound came from the drum in front of him.

He directed his gaze to the drum. The head slowly rose as bright red fingernails appeared on top of the drum.

When Xiao Zhan noticed a cheap jewel bracelet glittering on the wrist, his eyes widened.

The woman whose face was visible above the drum was his late mother.

The man he called father crawled out of the other drum next to it. He had that terrifying expression on his face when he whipped him.

With that face that appeared to be about to leap out of the barrel and kill him.

The frightened Xiao Zhan sat back and stepped back. They flowed like liquid out of the drum and crawled like spiders toward Xiao Zhan.

[Are you happy being the only one alive? You traitor!]

[I shouldn’t have given birth to a bastard like you in the first place!]

[I should have killed you by breaking your neck, not your legs!]

[Come with us! You also come with us!]

It feels like his ears were being ripped apart by their evil voices.

Ah, don’t come. Do not come! Xiao Zhan fumbled to the side, looking for something to throw.

The previously rough ground was transformed into a smooth, high-quality floor. His mouth dropped open the moment he turned his head and looked up.

Wang Yibo had a devilish smile on his face and a scalpel in his hand.

[I’ll preserve you nicely.]

As soon as he finished speaking, he thrust the scalpel down into Xiao Zhan’s eyes. Arghh!

Ugh. Xiao Zhan jumped up from his seat, surprised.

He took a deep breath and looked around, only to realize it was all a dream.

He regained consciousness and looked around after rubbing his cold sweaty face with both hands. It was a place that felt familiar.

Inside, there was not only a bed, but also a refrigerator, a dining table, a sofa, and a variety of household items.

He got out of bed and put his feet on the floor, but his legs were weak. He still hasn’t had enough strength in his body. Come to think of it, he remembered Wang Yibo inserting a syringe into his neck.

After running his hand over his neck, he slowly moved forward, wary of his surroundings.

Xiao Zhan walked out the door and into a long corridor. And every room adjacent to the hallway. He suddenly realized he was in Wang Yibo’s basement.

He frowned and looked around for people, but he couldn’t even find a single ant.

Instead, CCTVs have been installed throughout the ceiling, which did not exist previously.

Yibo changed him into a pajama, but he noticed a strange sensation in his chest area. When Xiao Zhan sneakily lifted his clothes, his nipples were slightly swollen and the teeth marks were clear.

His butt is fine. Only then did he realize that it was Wang Yibo’s work and gnashed his teeth. This perverted nipple asshole!

Xiao Zhan went to the elevator’s front, but it didn’t work even after he pressed the button. He kept the gloves imprinted with Wang Yibo’s fingerprints in his bag just in case.

Damn it, it must be in Wang Yibo’s hands now.

Bang! Bang! He slammed his fist against the elevator door, but it didn’t budge.

Xiao Zhan went to the shooting range location. He looked inside, but it was empty.

Each room was empty except for the one where Xiao Zhan stayed, which was furnished with household items.

He couldn’t even get out and was completely trapped.

Xiao Zhan clenched his teeth and looked up.

This bastard. What are you going to do with me now.
