?Chapter 279: Chapter 203: Run Forward in a Moment, Don’t Look Back_2 Chapter 279: Chapter 203: Run Forward in a Moment, Don’t Look Back_2 “What are you talking about?” Wenyan didn’t even think before she rejected Shen Jingchuan’s proposal, “No! How could I possibly abandon you and run away first.”
“Are you stupid? It’s not about you abandoning me, it’s about me telling you to run. We can’t both be wiped out, right? One of us has to escape and call the police.”
“No, don’t talk like that. I’m not afraid of those two making a coffin for me outside, because you are with me. But the idea of leaving you here alone while I run away, I can’t accept that. We must stick together, otherwise, I won’t go anywhere!”
“You really are stupid. It’s better for one to live than for both to die, right!”
“Not better! I just want to ask you one question, if I say I’ll hold them off and let you run first, will you run or not?”
“Are you joking? With those thin arms and legs of yours, how could you possibly hold them off? This is something that only a big guy like me can do!”
“Don’t change the subject, I’m just asking if you’d run or not?! Just answer that one question for me!”
Shen Jingchuan sighed, “I wouldn’t run, then I certainly couldn’t leave you here alone. But you can’t be stubborn about this, you have to listen to me. If you go out for help, I might be rescued soon too.”
“Don’t,” Wenyan shook her head, “You might think I’m being irrational. But I don’t have my phone on me, this is an abandoned factory, and most likely there’s no one around for miles. You tell me to go out for help, who am I supposed to ask for help? By the time I run to where there are people, you would probably be long dead. I can’t accept that outcome.”
As she spoke, Wenyan started to choke up.
When Shen Jingchuan heard her voice falter, he paused, “You, you’re crying?”
“What, is that not allowed? You’re here giving me your last words and I can’t shed a few tears?”
At this point, Wenyan started to sob uncontrollably.
Shen Jingchuan wasn’t afraid of death, but hearing Wenyan cry threw him into disarray; frustratingly, she was back-to-back with him, just a step away, yet he couldn’t face her to offer comfort.
“Alright, alright, stop crying, will you? I take back what I just said, okay? None of that counts! We’ll stick together. In a bit, I’ll deal with the stutterer, and you go after the other one, alright?”
“That’s more like it!”
The two had finally come to an agreement and temporarily stopped talking.
Just at that moment, they faintly heard someone shouting outside.
And by the sound of it, that person wasn’t far from the abandoned factory building.
“Who’s inside there?!! Speak up!”
At first, Wenyan wasn’t sure when she heard the voice.
She immediately asked Shen Jingchuan, “Did you hear that, it sounds like someone’s coming.”
Shen Jingchuan grunted, “He seems to be banging on the door.”
Indeed.
The person outside was hammering on the rusty iron door of the old factory building.
“I see a light, where are you guys getting electricity from? Hurry up and open the door, if you don’t open up I’m going to call the police!”
As soon as that person finished speaking, Big Head’s voice followed closely.
“Who are you, disturbing the peace in the middle of the night like this?”
“I’m the watchman, on patrol. This factory building has been out of use for a long time, who are you with, where’s the electricity coming from. Open the door, hurry up!”
Big Head then whispered to the Fur Coat Man for a moment, but they spoke so softly that Wenyan and Shen Jingchuan couldn’t hear clearly.
However, they soon heard the sound of the two men hustling to pack up.
Then Big Head spoke up.
“Coming, coming, I’ll open the door now, don’t get impatient.”
Following that, the voice of the person who had been outside became clearer, obviously he had entered.
“What’s going on here, how did you get in, didn’t you know this is private property?”
Big Head immediately responded with a cheeky laugh, “We’re homeless, we thought this place was abandoned, so we figured we’d just spend the night. As for the electricity, we don’t know, just flipped a switch and it worked, heh heh, if it’s free, why not use it?”
“Just flipped a switch and it worked, I think you’re stealing electricity. By the way, I saw sparks from the crack in the door just now, what was that about? Are you trying to set this place on fire or what?”
“No, no, that was us setting off fireworks, we found them on the street, we’ve never set them off before, wanted to see what it’s like.”
“Really? What kind of fireworks make a sizzling noise?”
“It’s over now! The sizzling noise was me making it up, don’t believe me listen. I just like to make sizzling noises while setting off fireworks. Heh heh heh, don’t worry, as soon as it’s light out, we’ll leave, we won’t cause you any trouble.”
