Chapter 188

Everyone present were smart people. After Si Chengyou understood Shen Yue's meaning, no emotions could be seen on his face. He only took a step back to keep some distance from No. 14 and asked Shen Yue, "The agreement is forgotten, then what about the deal?"

Shen Yue didn't turn her head and calmly said, "Not forgotten."

After getting an accurate answer, Si Chengyou didn't want to attract more attention either. He turned around and left.

The two of them looked like they had just greeted each other briefly before parting ways again.

Shen Yue had not been assigned a new prison building yet, so she could only go back to the newcomers' building first. No. 14, Danni La, Mo Aman followed behind her.

They were also among the few who were not injured.

After walking for a while, they met Tang Yi on the way.

Today, Tang Yi was wearing a white T-shirt with loose knee-length shorts below. He had a baseball cap on his head, and there were two more earrings added to the ones on his ears, three earrings lined up together on one ear, somehow giving Tang Yi's original sunny temperament a bit of roguishness.

Seeing Shen Yue, Tang Yi seemed very happy. He opened his arms and rushed over, "Yueyue! Congratulations! Come here and give me a hug!"

No. 14's eyebrows furrowed, wanting to throw him away, but Shen Yue glanced at him to stop his actions.

No. 14 was a little surprised, but still withdrew his hand, while also stopping Mo Aman who wanted to make a move as well.

For the first time, Tang Yi hugged Shen Yue unhindered into his arms. When the softness carrying the faint bloody smell penetrated from his nostrils into his lungs, when the temperature between their bodies was transmitted to each other through their clothes, Tang Yi finally had some sense of reality.

He had actually hugged Shen Yue!

Surprise was followed by joy, and joy was followed by panic. But even so, Tang Yi didn't let go. He held Shen Yue in his arms, confirming her existence, leaned to Shen Yue’s ear and asked softly, "Why didn't you dodge today?"

Shen Yue's eyes fell into the distance. Her voice was unusually gentle, "Thanks to what you taught me in Building No.4, I survived."

Shen Yue clearly felt Tang Yi's body temperature rise after she finished saying this, and his heartbeat was faster than before.

Shen Yue silently judged Tang Yi’s bodily reactions and did not care about the impact her actions had on the onlookers.

On the contrary, Tang Yi was very happy. He leaned against Shen Yue coquettishly, "Does that mean you want to give yourself to me as a reward? I'm so happy!" Hearing this, Shen Yue pushed Tang Yi away, looking into his eyes and said seriously, "I don't belong to anyone, neither do you." Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "I feel like you've changed a bit, Yueyue."

Shen Yue nodded without refuting, "Well, anyone would change after experiencing life and death."

Tang Yi nodded solemnly, then returned to normal, "Are you going back to rest now?"

Shen Yue nodded, "Yeah, I can only go back to the newcomers’ building for now."

Tang Yi moved closer to Shen Yue. Now in addition to the bloody smell on Shen Yue's body, there was also a faint scent of rosemary, which was his scent. Tang Yi was very satisfied.

"I want to take you back." Tang Yi whimpered while sticking to Shen Yue, completely lacking the authority of the ruler in Building No. 4, making several people behind Shen Yue have complicated feelings.

No. 14 even had the urge to record Tang Yi's current appearance and play it on the big screen in Building No. 4 every day.

Too bad there were no cameras. What a pity.

Shen Yue nodded at Tang Yi, "Well, let's go together."

Hearing Shen Yue say "we", the joy in Tang Yi's eyes couldn't be concealed at all, "I like you saying ‘together’ to me."

Usually, Tang Yi's words were just him talking to himself, and Shen Yue would not reply to him, nor did he expect a reply from Shen Yue, but for some reason, whether it was because Shen Yue had just won a big victory today, she actually responded to him this time.

"Then I’ll say ‘together’ to you more often from now on."

Shen Yue's voice was very soft, soft enough to be easily blown away by the wind. But Tang Yi still heard it.

To be precise, his hearing aid captured Shen Yue's voice.

Tang Yi knew something was wrong with Shen Yue now, but he didn't care. As long as he was happy, that was enough, "Then...let's eat together today to celebrate for you!"

Shen Yue nodded, "Okay."

"By the way, you’re going to Building No. 7 to be the ruler, right? When you become the ruler, we can meet anytime."

"It’s not necessarily."

"Haha, no way, you will definitely become the ruler, trust me."

"Okay, I trust you."

"Yueyue, can I hold your hand?"

"No."

"Oh, alright..." Tang Yi was a little disappointed. He thought he could take advantage of Shen Yue while she hadn't regained her senses yet.

"Tang Yi, I want something sweet."

"Huh? Didn't you just eat two puddings yesterday?" Shen Yue's eyes flickered as she understood something, "The caramel on the pudding yesterday melted. The texture wasn't good."

Tang Yi nodded, "Okay! I'll have them put caramel on the pudding today, big pieces!"

"No need for too big pieces."

"No, you have to eat the biggest ones!"

"Too big pieces are tedious to eat."

"Then have them make it easy to eat."

Shen Yue chatted casually with Tang Yi as they walked together like old friends.

Side by side.

But walking behind the two, No. 14 somehow sensed an indescribable sense of dissonance from this peaceful atmosphere.

After Shen Yue returned to the newcomers' building, she went straight back to her room. After resting for less than two hours, she was called out by Tang Yi to eat.

This time Shen Yue ate with Tang Yi at the No. 1 canteen. Tang Yi was surrounded by a bunch of his underlings, as if declaring something.

Shen Yue was alone among them, but she didn't show any panic at all.

In the next few days, Shen Yue was always with Tang Yi, wherever he was, she was there too. The two even completed an assassination mission together, and Shen Yue even commented on Tang Yi's approach.

From Tang Yi’s point of view, he finally met a partner who could completely understand everything about him.

From the perspective of other prisoners in the prison, there was one more big lunatic.

If Shen Yue really became the ruler, Building No. 7 would definitely become like Building No. 4 too.

For a while, the major forces in the prison all had their own ideas and were secretly maneuvering the outcome of this floor distribution battle.

A month later, the inmates who had become half dead from the floor distribution battle finally fully recovered. The prison also finalized the schedule for the floor distribution ceremony.

On the night before the floor distribution ceremony, Tang Yi called Shen Yue out alone.

That night, the prison simulated a clear night sky with no clouds blocking the moonlight spilling over every corner of the prison, including Shen Yue.

She walked under the moonlight and saw the darkness in Tang Yi's eyes at a glance.

"Where's No. 14? You didn't bring him along?" Tang Yi seemed to ask inadvertently.

Shen Yue shook her head, "I felt you had something you wanted to tell me alone, so I didn't call him."

Tang Yi's pupils shrank slightly, seemingly not expecting that he had already been seen so clearly, but in a flash, the corners of his mouth revealed a smile, "Yeah, I just suddenly wanted to chat with you."
