Bab 47: "Eliminated Right Away"
The people around all looked at the unsightly young master with his butt hitting the floor.
Silence filled the corridor as no one spoke, not even the culprit who dropped Zhao Yang straight to the floor.
'...ah...ah...I...I...drop the target!!'
Lai Jiayi really felt like dying. She didn't know what to do. The girl only stared at the man looking shocked silly before doing something incredibly...surprising.
"A-ahhhh!!" Lai Jiayi shouted as if she just saw a ghost, and the next second, the girl ran toward the stairs next to the elevator.
Her figure disappeared in no time, leaving the three dumbfounded beings in the corridor.
Yaya: (￣■￣;)!?
Others: (」ﾟﾛﾟ)｣
'….WHAAAAT?? Did this girl just...drop someone and run??'
Yaya felt like his circuit was about to break down. He looked at the empty corridor with blank eyes.
'Did we just mess up, and the culprit ran away, leaving me behind?'
'...JIA YOU FCKING COWARD!!'
"Jia!! Wait for me, quack!" Yaya shouted on top of his lung as he dashed away following his already gone contractor.
Thus once again, the AI didn't even glance at the victim and instead, leaving him alone just like what his contractor did.
Zhao Yang: …..
Tianjin: …..
"Did that AI...just ran away?" Zhao Yang asked awkwardly.
The two looked at each other with a blank face as if only now ever seen something as absurd as this.
They didn't speak for a few seconds, not even moving from their place before Tianjin finally reacted.
"Master! Ah ah, are you okay??" Tianjin circled her master. The man was still sitting on the floor in his previous position, not moving at all.
He was dropped from quite a height, but luckily he didn't get injured.
'But...the incident somehow makes his brain stop functioning?'
The man only stared at his AI with another blank face, too surprised to react. His mind was processing things fast, and only after another few seconds, he could think of something.
'...I...did I just fall? Fell because a certain cleaning service...dropped me off after heroically caught my body?'
Zhao Yang's eyes shook, and the temperature around seemed to drop for a few degrees.
Seeing Zhao Yang's eyes squinted and there's a layer of ice on his blue eyes, Tianjin froze on the spot.
'Uh oh…' Tianjin panicked.
Thankfully Zhao Yang didn't flare-up.
"...I'm fine," Zhao Yang just murmured in a low tone as he slowly raised.
The man then dusted off his pants, acted as if nothing happened.
Sure, nothing happened except for his demeanor turned severely cold this morning.
Tianjin couldn't help but curse the so-called 'Jia' girl causing her master to be in a bad mood.
'Fck you!!'
While Tianjin was cursing, Zhao Yang looked down at the floor and resumed walking again. He didn't speak at all, and his face was so stoic one would think that he's an iceberg.
There's a chill around his body, and surely anyone would shudder if they approached him.
'Jia?'
Recalling this name, Zhao Yang gritted his teeth as his aura grew even colder, cold enough to make Tianjin shiver.
He quickly entered the elevator and disappeared without a trace leaving the empty corridor.
No one knew what's going on in his mind as he acted like usual except for his cold aura. But, a certain duck AI knew exactly what's going on in the guy's mind.
"Jia!!" Yaya caught up with Jiayi, who was hiding under the stairs. The girl was hugging her knees, trembling.
Upon seeing her, he immediately rattled in a super-fast tone enough for him to be a rapper,
"THE BAROMETER DROPS, QUACK!!"
Lai Jiayi stiffened.
She slowly looked at Yaya's angry face with wide-open eyes.
"It can drop??"
'Dropped? What's dropping? The love barometer? The one I manage to raise to 1%?'
"Yes!! Fck, it can drop, quack! Ah ah ahhhh, it's dropping super fast! -0,1%, -0,2...0,5...0,10, ah ah QUAAACK!!"
Yaya's face turned pale as he reported the status to Lai Jiayi, who could only stare blankly at him.
'I know the barometer is bound to drop after I dropped that man, but…'
"I know it's going to drop. Why are you panicking?" Lai Jiayi bit her lips, pretending to be fine when, in fact, she was still terrified.
Just when Lai Jiayi's voice landed, Yaya's eyes widened. He looked at Lai Jiayi as if the girl was an absolute fool.
The duck brought his face closer to Lai Jiayi, took a deep breath before shouting with all his might.
"WHY I AM PANICKING, QUACK?! WHY YOU SAID, QUACKKK??" his chest was moving up and down as he roared in anger.
His voice was so loud that Lai Jiayi had to cover both of her ears in fear of getting deaf.
Lai Jiayi felt like Yaya was overreacting. She wanted to refute. But before Lai Jiayi could protest, Yaya's next words stunned her silly.
"BECAUSE ONCE THE BAROMETER HITS MINUS, YOU ARE IMMEDIATELY ELIMINATED, QUACK!"
His voice pierced through both Lai Jiayi's ears and heart. Her whole body stiffened, and her blood turned cold. Her heart thumped loudly as she widened her eyes in both shock and fear.
'What? Once the barometer hits minus...I will be eliminated? Game over?'
"What are you...why didn't you…" Lai Jiayi stared at Yaya with moist eyes.
'If what he said was true then...with the dropping of the barometer...if it touched minus…'
"I...will be eliminated right away?"
'!! No!!! No, no, no, no!! Don't, don't. It can't be!!'
