Chapter 205: Rain, I Have No Melon

Shen Fang didn't think about what consequences she would face, and Wu An neither thought nor cared to think.

Who would care about someone who schemes against them?

He felt nothing but disgust for Shen Fang.

Everyone had already gone their separate ways, but you insisted on stirring up this mess.

You're asking to die, huh?

Fine, die far away—don't bother me.

But Mao Wang...

He thought this guy was rather pitiful.

The ultimate embodiment of a sycophant and a warm-hearted guy is truly "hopeless"!

Shen Fang schemed to get Chen Long by using herself, aiming to be with him; she succeeded, but it brought Mao Wang no benefit at all.

If she failed, Shen Fang would surely suffer a great loss, and Mao Wang would gain nothing either.

Just what is this guy sucking up to, and warming up to?

All about selfless sacrifice, moving himself, right?

I just can't figure it out, I really can't.

Every cause has its effect.

Everyone has their own karma; meddling recklessly easily brings trouble upon oneself.

Being a saintly mother is not an option.

Wu An didn't think he was all that capable; he was just an ordinary person who had been reborn and turned on a cheat.

After washing up, he lay in bed.

He couldn't fall asleep right away.

Left with no choice, he silently recited a hundred times in his heart: "The pitiful inevitably have something hateful about them."

As for how Shen Fang would fare...

He hadn't thought about it.

From the moment he learned Shen Fang had gone mad and planned to use Chen Long to scheme against him, his heart had already been sealed in cement.

Late night.

Shen Fang arrived at an old house in Zhenzhongcun.

This was rented by Chen Long.

Chen Long had fallen out with his family, claimed independence, and his parents specially rented this house for him.

They also gave him an independent fund.

After Chen Long rented the house, he began preparing actively; once ready, he invited Shen Fang over.

Shen Fang knew Chen Long harbored ill intentions.

So she agreed.

But she waited left and right, yet no reply came from Mao Wang, and she couldn't wait any longer.

She believed Mao Wang would surely summon Wu An.

Mao Wang had always satisfied her every demand; this time would surely be no exception.

Thinking this, she suddenly felt Mao Wang was actually quite nice.

"What good does it do?"

"He's like a block of wood—not my type."

"Wu An... I'm doing all this for you!"

Shen Fang took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

The door opened; Chen Long poked his head out, saw Shen Fang alone, and couldn't help but grin.

In the darkness, that smile was especially terrifying.

Shen Fang's heart pounded; she felt a creepy chill and instinctively stepped back half a pace.

"Smack!"

The next moment, Chen Long grabbed her hand: "You've come all this way—are you leaving?"

"Come in."

Chen Long said, pulling Shen Fang as he walked into the house.

Shen Fang resisted a little, but thinking of her plan, she eventually let herself be led inside.

The lighting inside the house was rather dim.

Junk piled up under the stairs; as they followed Chen Long upward, the steps creaked.

Just halfway up, the door was blown shut by the wind, letting out a loud bang.

Shen Fang lowered her head, suppressing the urge to turn and flee.

They reached the second floor.

The furniture was complete, albeit a bit messy; the TV was on playing news, and the coffee table held beer and various braised dishes.

"Come, have a seat."

"Let's drink and chat."

Chen Long plopped onto the sofa, then patted the spot beside him.

Shen Fang walked over and sat down.

Chen Long opened a beer; it was canned.

Shen Fang saw the beer had just been opened, so she relaxed and clinked glasses with Chen Long.

Actually, by this point she had already completed half of her plan.

In an ideal scenario, she only needed to coax Chen Long, wait for Wu An to arrive, then pretend to be bullied by Chen Long.

Chen Long watched Shen Fang take a sip of wine and swallow, then gave two cold laughs and said, "Shen Fang, you and Wu An teamed up to frame me, slandering me and threatening you—how do you plan to compensate me for this?"

Shen Fang asked, "How do you want me to compensate you?"

Chen Long gave a hehe laugh: "Simple, just spend the night with me."

Shen Fang shook her head: "Chen Long, if you're going to say that, there's nothing left to talk about."

"I'm telling you, it's impossible between us."

After saying that.

Shen Fang suddenly stood up.

Then she felt the world spin, her vision went black, and she fell back onto the sofa.

Chen Long gave a hehe laugh: "Shen Fang, when did you become so naive?"

"You actually thought I really invited you just to drink and chat?"

"You slandered me and sexually harassed me, so today I'll really sexually harass you!"

As he spoke, he lunged at Shen Fang.

Shen Fang shoved him hard, then swung a slap that sent Chen Long reeling to the side.

Chen Long covered his face, his head buzzing.

He was dazed.

How could he still be so strong after being drugged?

He almost got knocked senseless by the blow.

Chen Long, burning with rage, lunged at her again.

At first Shen Fang could still push back against Chen Long, but her body gradually went limp, and she pleaded, "Chen Long, stop!"

"Let me go, and I promise not to tell anyone what happened today."

"Get up!"

I don't know where she got the strength, but she actually managed to push Chen Long away.

Chen Long was both angry and anxious!

"Don't I care about face?"

After all that, he was sweating from the pain, yet he still hadn't even taken off Shen Fang's coat.

He felt humiliated.

Chen Long lunged again; this time Shen Fang couldn't push him off— that earlier shove had been her last bit of strength.

"Rip."

Her clothes were torn open, Chen Long's eyes lit up, about to continue, when a hurried footsteps sounded together with the creak of the stairs.

Mao Wang arrived.

Seeing this, Mao Wang's eyes instantly turned red: "Chen Long, let go of Shen Fang!"

Although Mao Wang is a simp, his fighting ability is nothing that Chen Long, a little dog, can compare to.

In a single exchange, Chen Long was shoved far away.

Chen Long grabbed the fruit knife from the table and charged, but he was so inept that Mao Wang simply dodged the blade.

Mao Wang didn't even think— "puff"— and stabbed.

Chen Long looked down, then instantly collapsed powerless to the ground.

Mao Wang was also stunned.

Had he killed someone?

Although Shen Fang had no strength left, she was still conscious and shouted, "Call the police, dial 120."

Mao Wang reacted, trembling as he dialed the phone.

As soon as he spoke: "I… I killed someone…"

……

"Ding ding ding."

The alarm rang, Wu An silenced it, but outside it was still pitch black.

At three a. m., it's when people are most sleepy.

He rubbed his eyes hard, wiped his face, sat up, but his eyelids still wouldn't open.

He truly didn't want to get up.

But for a better life, Wu An knew he couldn't be lazy.

He called A Qing; after a while it connected, and A Qing, still half-asleep, said a couple of words to him.

He fetched water to wash up.

Seeing the daily luck value of 122 points, he instantly felt much more awake.

He left the house and headed straight for the dock.

Mai Hangyu had already arrived, lying asleep in the car.

Wu An patted the car door and called him to wake up, seeing his heavy dark circles, he said, "You look exhausted; since you came home with me yesterday, you don't need to go back and forth— at least you can get some extra sleep."

Mai Hangyu shook his head, yawning, and said, "It's not that…"

"Something happened in the village yesterday— police and ambulances came; I heard a knife was drawn and someone was stabbed."

"My grandfather suffers from an occupational illness, and he insisted on dragging me to see it."

"Oh right, the thing that got me stuck… I almost forgot, my grandfather asked you to give him a call."

Wu An felt strange and called Lao Mai.

Lao Mai answered quickly, and his first words completely dispelled Wu An's drowsiness: "Something happened to Chen Long."

"It wasn't you who plotted this, was it?"

Wu An blinked, then gave a wry smile: "Lao Mai, what do you think I am?"

"It's got nothing to do with me."

"I don't even have time to scheme this."

"Did someone get killed?"

Lao Mai let out a breath of relief and said, "No, he's been taken to the hospital; his injuries are quite serious."

"Since it has nothing to do with you, I can relax."
