Chapter 350 - Eject the Card When You Should

Although that delivery man seemed somewhat strange, Shi Lei didn’t expect that he would actually be from the Eye of the Dark Night.

Damn, wasn’t being watched by them bad? Although this organization was almighty and could do many seemingly-impossible things, wouldn’t it be better to avoid direct contact with this kind of organisation that was as mysterious as death?

No wonder it was called “Suixin Express.” He really did follow his heart and said whatever he wanted to. Shi Lei hadn’t had time to search it up online, or else he would’ve known that the so-called “Suixin Express” didn’t exist.

The Scepter was pleased when it saw Shi Lei keeping silent, “So? Level Two Employee, would you still like to use the Millionaire Card to do the same thing?”

Shi Lei angrily bit his lip until it bled, but he could only clench his teeth and retain his fury. “There’s no need!”

The Scepter burst into unrestrained laughter, sounding as if it could shake the heavens and seas. Shi Lei believed that the Scepterthe Scepter was a person, it would be rolling on the floor laughing!

No wonder the damned Scepter had such good temper today, letting him curse at it. It didn’t even call him a “stupid marmot” in exasperation, anticipating this moment when he was helpless, expressing all its pleasure by laughing.

“Keep laughing, you bastard!” Shi Lei pressed the eject button and cut off its bitchy voice.

It was content but continued to laugh. “You have no manners,” it roared. “Actually ejecting the card—”

However, the card had already been ejected, so the Scepter disappeared from the screen without finishing its mockery.

“Although I can’t do anything to you, you can’t laugh at me like this! At least I’m capable of making you disappear immediately!” Shi Lei muttered angrily and turned around to leave. A person just walked in from the outside and glanced at Shi Lei in surprise after hearing his words. He looked around. After confirming that no one was there besides Shi Lei and himself, he murmured, “Idiot.”

Shi Lei was dizzy from hunger and realized that he had only brought the damned Black Card downstairs with him. Although it represented immense wealth, it couldn’t be used to withdraw money. His phone was also upstairs, so Shi Lei had no choice but to go back and grab some money. At the moment, he was so hungry he could eat a cow.

Even before he entered he could hear the constant ringing of his phone. What’s wrong with this person? Look at the time! Why are you calling?

He walked inside and looked at the phone. It was from Wei Xingyue. She had called more than ten times ever since 4 PM and he missed all of them.

Shi Lei picked up as he walked outside.

Wei Xingyue sounded extremely angry. “Hey, lil’man! Why didn’t you pick up my calls the whole day yesterday?”

“Huh? I didn’t hear it. I don’t have the energy to talk to you right now, I’m about to starve to death.” Shi Lei hung up after that and thought, I really don’t have the time to chit chat right now. No, I really don’t have energy. I’m so hungry I can barely walk.

Wei Xingyue fumed and almost threw her phone out her car window.

“This bastard. You take advantage of me and want to leave without saying anything? If I didn’t encounter Sister Nü, I wouldn’t even know that he’s going back to Runzhou. You want to leave after taking me? You dare hang up on me? Starving? You deserve it!”

After Miss Wei let out her rage, she felt that Shi Lei really did sound feeble over the phone. She was on her way home after going to karaoke with a few friends.

Following a moment of thought, Wei Xingyue turned around and drove toward Shi Lei’s apartment. “No, I need to ask him why he isn’t picking up and why he’s starving himself like this,” she muttered to herself.

She wasn’t far from his apartment, arriving in just a few minutes. Then she called him again.

Shi Lei didn’t ignore this time, but his speech was barely comprehensible, accompanied by the sound of loud chewing.

“What do you want now? I’m eating. I was about to starve to death—”

“I’m downstairs at your place. Where are you eating?”

“McDonald’s.” Shi Lei evidently took a sip of coke over the call. Wei Xingyue frowned and hung up.

McDonald’s wasn’t that far from her location. Although it was open twenty-four seven, the nearby universities were all on holiday and most students had gone home already. Even if they didn’t, they wouldn’t sit there and study like before. The McDonald’s was empty and Shi Lei was the only person sitting inside.

From behind, Wei Xingyue saw his shoulders moving up and down as he devoured the food. She quickly walked over and saw that there were already three empty hamburger boxes in front of him while he devoured the fourth one in his hands.

Seeing that someone was standing next to him, Shi Lei looked up and realized that it was Wei Xingyue. “ What are you doing here?” he asked almost inaudibly. Then he lowered his head and continued to eat.

After he finished his fourth hamburger, Shi Lei finally collapsed into the chair in satisfaction. Wei Xingyue frowned and sat down opposite to him with slight disgust.

“Are you a hungry ghost trying to reincarnate or something? Why are you eating this much?”

“I haven’t eaten for a day. Aiyo, don’t talk to me. Let me rest.” Shi Lei spoke feebly, picked the coke up from the table, and took another gulp.

Wei Xingyue watched in silence as he finished the first cup of coke, ate five or six fried chicken wings, then finally using his two oily hands to search for the tissues hidden under the hamburger boxes.

Feeling all sorts of discontentment and with many questions, Wei Xingyue eventually stretched out her fair and petite hand. She helped him find the tissues from the pile of boxes and threw it to him.

Shi Lei wiped his hands for a long time and sighed deeply before collapsing into the chair again. “Aiyo, I was so hungry. I didn’t think that McDonald’s hamburgers would be this delicious. What the hell have I been eating recently?”

Wei Xingyue rolled her eyes. “This is all junk food. It’s better to not eat this much. Now explain to me why you haven’t been picking up my calls since yesterday afternoon.”

“Miss, was I born to pick up your calls? Why don’t you find a telephone operator as a friend? He will definitely be on call twenty-four seven, ready to pick up anytime. And he will be extremely polite. You can even request for him to use Wudong’s dialect to talk to you. Or say, ‘yes, girlfriend, why are you calling me? Well, I’m not busy. Do you want me to talk with you~?’”

Wei Xingyue rolled her eyes. “Stop it. What happened to you? You don’t pick up my calls and when I see you, you’re starving.” 

“I don’t need to report everything I do to you, do I? Do you really think you’re my aunt?”

Wei Xingyue was speechless. She thought that they were only joking around about that night, but Shi Lei had used it again today.

“Enough. I’m speaking to you nicely. What kind of attitude is this?!” Wei Xingyue was really upset after being ignored by this lil’man so many times.

Shi Lei couldn’t bear to see her like that and sighed. “I was studying at home and didn’t want to be distracted by external factors. I did hear the phone ring, but I ignored every indiscriminately, including you. I didn’t bother picking up.”

“Didn’t you finish your exams? What are you studying for?” Wei Xingyue refused to buy it.
