Just as Yue Xin was about to leave the dining room, Su Yu appeared out of nowhere. He walked up to Yue Xin and wrapped his arm around her shoulders.
Realizing that someone was hugging her shoulder, Yue Xin did not have any intention of resisting. Su Yu’s eyes curved into a smile. Clearly, he was very satisfied with Yue Xin’s reaction. He greeted her naturally from behind, “Oh my, we meet again.”
When Yue Xin heard someone speak, she turned around. The man behind her was about a head and a half taller than her. He was wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans. His eyebrows were very gentle and he had a smile on his face. His fair skin contrasted well with his peach-colored lips, and his handsome facial features were very eye-catching. Yue Xin clearly knew that the person in front of her was a prisoner, but his current appearance still reminded her of the words “cheerful and handsome”. His head was slightly tilted, and there was a sparkling diamond stud on his left ear, enhancing his appearance.
Yue Xin was sure that she had never seen this man before, but when she saw the cross on his chest, she remembered his identity.
“You were the one who opened the door.” On her first day in prison, Yue Xin’s attention was focused on the salary of the person who opened the door. Moreover, Su Yu was wearing a prison guard’s hat that covered part of his face, so Yue Xin did not recognize him. However, the cross on Su Yu’s chest was very different. There was a gap at the top of the badge, which was how Yue Xin identified Su Yu.
When Su Yu saw that Yue Xin had recognized her, the smile on his face widened, like a child who had just gotten his favorite toy. “Do you really still remember me? Do you still remember our agreement?”
Yue Xin was stunned. An agreement? When had she ever made an agreement with this person? However, she had only met Su Yu for a few minutes. There were only a few things that had happened. Yue Xin recalled that part of her memory and finally understood what Su Yu meant.
She raised her head slightly and looked at the stranger in front of her with her dark eyes. She said calmly, “Are you here to tell me your salary?”
When Su Yu heard Yue Xin’s words, he was obviously happier. His expression was even brighter than before as he covered his mouth in excitement. “I knew you would remember!”
Su Yu had originally planned to cut off Yue Xin’s tongue if she dared to forget the agreement so that she wouldn’t be able to make an appointment with anyone else in the future. However, it seemed like he didn’t need to for the time being. This was great!
Yue Xin’s identity was very special, but it was fine as long as she kept her life. It was not a problem to cut off her tongue. This was the bottom line that Su Yu had probed from the higher-ups the day before.
Yue Xin did not reply or escape. She could feel that although Su Yu looked full of smiles, he had already locked her body. She could not escape at all. If she could not escape, she would wait and see. She would wait for the right time to take action. This was what Yi Chengxuan had just taught her today.
Su Yu continued to talk to himself. When he realized that Yue Xin was ignoring him, he did not get angry. Instead, he took out the salary slip from his pocket and handed it to Yue Xin. “This is my salary for this month. Take a look. I can go out six times a month. I can go out for two days each time. I’ve been guarding the door non-stop for the past two days. Although it’s a little tough, the salary is not bad.”
Yue Xin opened the note and took a look. She echoed, “It’s indeed not bad. Are you still short of people?”
Su Yu’s curved brows remained unchanged as he tilted his head and asked, “Do you know how to open the prison gates?”
Yue Xin shook her head and said without changing her expression, “I can push the door open. I’ll help you push it open after you open it.”
Su Yu was stunned. Then, he burst out laughing in the dining room.
When Su Yu laughed, Yue Xin realized that the noisy restaurant had suddenly become quiet. Moreover, many prisoners had terrified expressions on their faces. She quietly memorized the faces of these prisoners. The man in front of her was a dangerous person. This was the conclusion Yue Xin came to after testing him a few times.
Su Yu laughed for a long time before he stopped. He looked at Yue Xin again and suddenly became serious. “I’m Su Yu, the person in charge of Building No. 4. I’m looking forward to your performance in the branch battle.”
In fact, Yi Chengxuan had never left. While Yue Xin was being pestered by the restaurant auntie, he retreated to a blind spot in the restaurant and continued to observe. After spending a day with Yue Xin, Yi Chengxuan felt that Yue Xin’s expression was too calm; it was as if she didn’t care about the danger around her at all.
Yi Chengxuan wanted to know what trump card Yue Xin had to be so fearless, or it could be that the ignorant were fearless. There was also a possibility that Yue Xin knew everything in her heart, but she didn’t care. To put it bluntly, she wasn’t afraid of death.
After the brief confrontation between Yue Xin and Su Yu, Yi Chengxuan understood that Yue Xin really did not care. When Su Yu first approached Yue Xin, Yi Chengxuan sensed that Yue Xin’s body instinctively reacted warily. However, she quickly suppressed her reaction, so when Su Yu placed his hand on her body, she revealed an unguarded state..
