Chapter 64.2

Wen Chi said, “No, I’m not.”

Zhang Heng spoke with certainty: “Definitely.”

“…” Wen Chi didn’t bother to explain and thought that Zhang Heng wanted to pin the blame on his head. Anyway, no matter how he explained, Zhang Heng would not listen, “Think whatever you want.”

Unexpectedly, after Zhang Heng heard this, he suddenly raised his voice: “Look, you admitted it.”

Wen Chi: “…”

Like Liu Da Shan just now, he threw the hood and handkerchief on the ground, turned around, walked to the stool and sat down.

“Where are you going?” Zhang Heng asked, “Come here and untie me!”

For the first time, Wen Chi laughed angrily at Zhang Heng’s righteous attitude and casually slung his arm over the table while squinting at Zhang Heng, “You’ve said I’m in cahoots with them, so why should I untie you?”

Zhang Heng was at a loss for words and his angry gaze looked like he wanted to glare a hole through Wen Chi.

Wen Chi just pretended not to feel Zhang Heng’s gaze, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea and drank it slowly.

Seeing this, Zhang Heng was so angry that his mouth twisted with contempt.

In the end, a person who came to deliver the food cut the rope on Zhang Heng’s body.

Although Zhang Heng’s resentful eyes never moved away from Wen Chi’s body, he still ate the food thoroughly and then, seemingly unable to eat any more, he shoved the food into his mouth.

After eating, Zhang Heng went to bed and lay down, without bedding or removing his shoes, he curled up like a shrimp.

Wen Chi sat at the table for a while to digest the meal, wiped his face and feet briefly with the cold water available in the room, and then took off his shoes and went to bed.

The room was so silent that a pin drop could be heard, and there was no telling if Zhang Heng had fallen asleep but Wen Chi could hear his even breathing.

After a while, Wen Chi felt sleepy and his consciousness gradually became heavy.

Just when Wen Chi was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt a weight on his body, and he jerked his eyes open——

He saw that Zhang Heng had climbed onto his bed at some point and his entire upper body weight was resting on his body. A gleeful smile spread across Zhang Heng’s bruised face as he placed a hand on Wen Chi’s neck.

Wen Chi felt a sharp pain coming from the nape of his neck.

He strained to look down and saw a dagger cupped in Zhang Heng’s hand held above his neck, glinting coldly in the candlelight.

Wen Chi was stunned and didn’t dare to move: “Zhang Heng, what are you going to do?”

Zhang Heng didn’t answer his question but directly gave the order: “Scream out.”

Wen Chi was stunned: “Wha.. what?”

Zhang Heng said impatiently, “I told you to scream out!”

While Zhang Heng was speaking, the strength in his hand unconsciously increased a bit and the pain made Wen Chi howl subconsciously.

Before Wen Chi’s voice fell, Zhang Heng immediately climbed off Wen Chi’s body, and quickly ran behind the door to hide.

Not long after, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, followed by the sound of the lock being unlocked.

The door was pushed open and the man who delivered the food not long ago walked in.

The man saw Wen Chi lying on the bed with blood on his neck and was taken aback for a moment and without thinking further he quickly walked towards Wen Chi.

But before the man had taken a few steps, Zhang Heng, who was hiding behind the door, rushed out suddenly, raised his hand and plunged the dagger into the back of the man’s head.

Blood gushed out, splashing all over Zhang Heng’s face.

Zhang Heng’s hands were shaking when he pulled out the dagger and he tried his best to suppress the fear in his eyes. He walked quickly to the bed, grabbed Wen Chi who was still in a dazed state and dragged Wen Chi to run outside.

Although this was not the first time Wen Chi saw a corpse, the shock in his heart at this moment was no less than the first time he saw Shi Ye killing someone. He even forgot to struggle and just stumbled and ran out following Zhang Heng.

Strangely, the people who were guarding outside during the day were all gone and what surrounded them was only the hazy night and the sound of insects chirping one after another.

Wen Chi followed Zhang Heng for a while, and both of them were out of breath. Taking advantage of the time to stop to catch his breath, he asked Zhang Heng in a low voice, “Where are those people?”

Zhang Heng glanced at him with gloomy eyes and then explained: “According to my observation, every other day they gather at midnight, which is the best time for us to escape.”

Wen Chi was silent for a moment and asked the most crucial question: “But do you know how to get out?”

Zhang Heng said, “I don’t know.”

Wen Chi was shocked: “You don’t even know how to escape, did Liang Jingru (Liang Jingru (English name: Fish) , whose real name is Liang Cuiping , is a Malaysian Chinese and a female singer in the Chinese pop music . She has a very high reputation and a large number of fans in China.) give you the courage to escape?”

“Who is Liang Jingru?” Zhang Heng frowned, but that’s not the point and he didn’t intend to ask Wen Chi to answer this question. He looked around, grabbed Wen Chi’s arm and continued running in one direction.

“Zhang Heng, we can’t run away, we will definitely die if we get caught…” Wen Chi said while panting, “Let’s go back and find another way.”

Zhang Heng gritted his teeth and said, “I’ve already killed someone, how can I go back?”

Wen Chi was silent.

While running, Zhang Heng turned his head to look at Wen Chi and suddenly showed a smile: “Even if we are caught, I still have a way out.”

Wen Chi asked, “What is it?”

As soon as the question was uttered, there was a sudden rustling in the grass around them, but in a moment, a bunch of people poured out of the hazy night – it was the group of kidnappers.

Almost all of them held knives in their hands, approaching fiercely.

“These two bastards killed Li Lao Er,, damn it, just kill them.” A man cursed in a rough voice.

“Yes!” Someone echoed angrily, “Kill them to pay for Li Lao Er’s life!”

Wen Chi didn’t expect that this group of people would catch up so quickly and silently and he was so frightened that his legs went limp. He turned his back and grabbed Zhang Heng’s hand and was about to pull Zhang Heng to run, but Zhang Heng backhanded him and yanked him back.

Then, a dagger touched Wen Chi’s neck.

Zhang Heng hid behind Wen Chi, holding a dagger in one hand and pinching Wen Chi’s neck with the other, shouting loudly, “Don’t come over! If you come over again, I’ll kill him!”

Wen Chi: “…”

It turned out that Zhang Heng’s retreat was referring to him.
