Chapter 32: Poor Chen Rou’er

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Zhang Peng arrived at Chen Rou’er’s house, Chen Rou’er welcomed him into the house.

As soon as Zhang Peng’s butt touched the sofa, Chen Rou’er leaned on him and cried.

“Sob, sob, sob, I’m so scared. That Ye Xingchen is really a beast!”

“I just went to borrow some food from him, but he…he actually molested me!”

“He wanted me to sleep with him! I rejected him, but he hit me…”

The bruises on Chen Rou’er’s body were clearly caused by her fight with Chu Yao yesterday, but now, she directly blamed these injuries on Ye Xingchen.

“Zhang Peng, I’m so sad. You know that my upbringing is strict. It’s just that I rejected his pursuit previously, and in the end, he… He actually used such words to humiliate me!”

Zhang Peng felt both annoyed and sweet in his heart.

What annoyed him was that this Ye Xingchen was so shameless. He actually dared to bully his Rou’er like this. However, he couldn’t help but think that after Chen Rou’er was wronged, she first came to him and complained. This showed that in Chen Rou’er’s heart, he was a very important person.

His heart ached and he hurriedly said, “Rou’er, don’t cry. Just wait, I’ll go find that dog Ye Xingchen right now. He actually dared to treat you like this, see if I don’t kill him!”

Chen Rou’er and Chu Yao secretly looked at each other, thinking that this Zhang Peng was really easy to fool. They had found the right person.

Chen Rou’er had originally prepared a lot of words to brainwash Zhang Peng. In the end, this guy didn’t need to be brainwashed at all. He played the hero first, saving her a lot of effort.

She held Zhang Peng’s hand again and stared at him with tears in her eyes. “Ye Xingchen has a lot of supplies at home. He might even have some power generation equipment. Previously, when I visited him with Yaoyao, there was still heating at his home after the power outage. He even told me that he had caught a summer cold.”

“He’s so cheap…” Chen Rou’er paused and almost blurted out the word ‘bastard’. She paused and hurriedly changed her words.

“Why does a bad person like him live so well?”

“Yaoyao and I haven’t eaten in a long time. Zhang Peng, why don’t we think of a way to snatch his house and move in together in the future?”

Zhang Peng didn’t like Ye Xingchen.

They were both pursuers of Chen Rou’er, but Ye Xingchen’s family background was much better than Zhang Peng’s. Zhang Peng’s family only had a little money. He could not take out hundreds of thousands or even millions to chase a girl like Ye Xingchen. He was envious of Ye Xingchen and his cousin.

But now…

Chen Rou’er tightly hugged Zhang Peng’s arm in her embrace, and strands of hair brushed past Zhang Peng’s exposed face.

In an instant, Zhang Peng actually felt that Ye Xingchen was only so-so.

After all, he was the one accompanying Chen Rou’er, and Chen Rou’er had personally invited him over.

“Alright, alright, alright. Rou’er, whatever you say is fine!”

Zhang Peng had lost his mind. Chu Yao gave Chen Rou’er a look and quietly went to the kitchen to take out two fruit knives and two kitchen knives.

“But Ye Xingchen is very cunning. I’m afraid you’ll be injured. How about this, Zhang Peng, you bring some weapons with you.”

Two kitchen knives were stuffed into Zhang Peng’s hands, but Zhang Peng was clearly hesitant.

“What if I killed him with a kitchen knife?”

Chu Yao continued. “So what if he’s killed? I’d be scared if he didn’t die. What if he’s alive and comes to take revenge on us?”

Murder was easy to say, but in this civilized society, if one really killed someone, they would be imprisoned or even sentenced to death.

Zhang Peng, his hand holding the kitchen knife, was a little hesitant. Seeing this, Chen Rou’er hurriedly started to pretend to cry again.

“Yes, yes, that Ye Xingchen…He took off half of my clothes at that time. Fortunately, Yaoyao came over in time and saved me…Otherwise, I, I… I’ll just die!”

As she cried, she leaned against Zhang Peng again and sobbed softly in his ear.

In the end, her methods were superb. Zhang Peng was originally hesitating, but when he heard Chen Rou’er cry so sadly, he instantly stuffed the kitchen knife into the thick “cotton coat” that was a roughly tied-up quilt.

“Let’s go! There is no time to lose! Let’s go now to avoid any more trouble!”

There were two women and one man. Zhang Peng had two kitchen knives in his arms, while Chen Rou’er and Chu Yao each had a fruit knife.

Before long, they arrived at Ye Xingchen’s house.

The first floor had been sealed off by snow, and now they were standing in front of Ye Xingchen’s second-floor door.

Chen Rou’er and Chu Yao had already hidden in a corner at the side, and Zhang Peng was the only one who came forward.

“Xingchen, Xingchen, are you home? I’m Zhang Peng!”

“Are you home, Xingchen? I want to talk to you about something! If it’s convenient, can you open the door? I’ll go in and talk to you in detail!”

Zhou Peng leaned against the door, knocking on the door while pressing the doorbell.

He did not know if the doorbell was still working. After all, the power supply had already ended.

“Zhang Peng?”

Ye Xingchen raised his head and pulled his attention away from the movie. He didn’t understand why Zhang Peng would come here to find him. After all, love rivals would be especially jealous when they met. Even if he no longer liked Chen Rou’er, he and Zhang Peng were really not friends.

He took the remote control and pressed pause. He got up and looked at the surveillance cameras around the house.

He saw Chen Rou’er and Chu Yao hiding behind his house. They stuck their heads out and looked in Zhang Peng’s direction. Zhang Peng would also touch his chest from time to time.

Hmm? What was that? A kitchen knife?

Ye Xingchen saw Zhang Peng pull open his clothes and adjust the position of the kitchen knife in his arms.

Even though Ye Xingchen was mentally prepared and knew how vicious Chen Rou’er was, he still couldn’t help but gasp when he saw the scene on the surveillance camera.

He really didn’t expect that Chen Rou’er would actually want to take his life so quickly!

Ye Xingchen’s eyes were cold as he took out a pistol from his space and loaded it.

He took the elevator to the third floor and entered the control room on the third floor to change the one-way sound transmission device on the second floor to a two-way sound transmission.

“Who is it?”

Zhang Peng waited for a long time and shouted for a long time, but no one responded. He was anxious and afraid that his actions would attract the attention of others.

When he finally heard Ye Xingchen’s reply, Zhang Peng’s eyes lit up. He quickly gestured to Chen Rou’er and Chu Yao to get ready.

Zhang Peng continued, “Xingchen, I’m Zhang Peng. I don’t have anything to eat at home. Can you see if you can give me something to eat?”

His voice was full of pleading, but Ye Xingchen could clearly see the madness in his eyes.

“It’s useless for you to look for me. I don’t have anything to eat at home.”
