Chapitre 121: My Costar will help if he wants

Xie Bian's words mean Yao Shen spends another sleepless night twisting and turning in bed until morning.

He jumps out of bed as soon as dawn breaks. He sends Xin Hulei a message over a quick breakfast of microwave congee.

[Little Menace: Xie Bian says they're ready. I'm going there now]

[Little Menace: I'll come back to my place once everything is ready. Please have an answer for me by then]

[Little Menace: you know, you can always meet with them with Tan Liansi or something. I don't need to be there]

[Little Menace: anyway, I'm going now]

Perhaps foolishly, Yao Shen remains seated in place looking down at his phone in the vain hope of Xin Hulei replying.

Eventually, he's forced to face reality and give up.

On the way to the doorway to Youdu he tells himself that perhaps Xin Hulei isn't close to his phone.

He goes straight to the Wuji pavilion, where, as expected, he finds both Xie Bian and Fan Wujiu.
