Chapter 117: Stay in the Prison
"You are kind of stupid, you know! That guy told you to go to jail and you are here...? No questions asked? ", Seiren asked Xing who was sitting in the bed sipping her warm milk.
Xing just rolled her eyes and continued drinking her milk. How can he complain about this place?
This prison is called ’Iron Gates Prison’ and is the one meant for violent crimes and is heavily guarded and they were taken to the underground cell that was the most secure place and there were two separate beds with neat, clean blankets set. We’ll, they aren’t bed per se but oversized benches and that does not matter for a one night stay, right? Especially considering this is a PRISON!
The captain even apologised for not able to prepare warm bath for them since that place being a prison. Xing and Seiren who were in no mood for baths magnanimously forgave the captain. They were given dinner delivered from Seiren’s restaurant and warm milk to top it off.
Kudos to Shengli for making prison stay this comfortable!
"Why do you get silk sheets while I get these.... These... Rough ones?", Seiren frowned pinching the sheets provided for him, they were new and clean but not something he’s used to.
"Well, that’s because Shengli is my husband, not yours!", Xing snorted. How hard is it for him to understand?
Seiren just made a face at her and reluctantly made his bed.
"Do you have a woman in your heart?", Xing asked Seiren after he settled. He really got mad when she said that she’ll take his wife. Even though they spewed profanities at each other, she didn’t mean to offend him purposely. Even though she didn’t want to apologise she didn’t want him to misunderstand either.
Seiren looked at Xing confused at first and then he realised why she asked that, "I don’t, not yet... But I don’t know why I got that mad before", he answered.
"Aww! Your wife is so lucky to have a man like you!", Xing smiled and Seiren just rolled his eyes.
"Never thought we’d work well together like this.... But in the past, even though I thought of you as an enemy, I never hated you", Seiren said sincerely. He knew today’s success has her contribution the most. He must thank her but he felt awkward to do so after years of standing against her.
