The Scum Is Chatty

Fortunately, he already had not eaten much and finished digesting the food. Or else, he'll vomit –

The thing that Cheng Sheng hates the most is the author who makes him feel this pain – ah, no. It's just the pain. He took a deep breath to lessen the pain he was feeling. His chest heaved up and down as he watched Dongfang Xiaoyun slowly walk towards him, sweetly taking his time. "You're qualified for the catwalk." He told him as he pushed himself up with his elbow.

Dongfang Xiaoyun chuckled. "You're really smart. I can't even understand what you are saying." He told him.

"However – " Cheng Sheng said as he finally managed to sit up. " – I really, really want to hit you with a bullet train on the runway – " he said and cried when his face was kicked by Dongfang Xiaoyun, making his face turn to the side. He felt dizzy and he fell on his back. His nose is bleeding and blood is trickling out of his lips. His hair was in disarray and his face was very dirty and bruised. However, he still looked beautiful. Those rounded eyes that are moist from the pain…

"Ah, Cheng-shidi. I really liked you the first time I met you." Dongfang Xiaoyun said as he knelt beside Cheng Sheng who was weakly lying down on the ground, his arms and limbs stretched taut. "You are so cute. It's a surprise you are also smart. Now, even if you're battered you still look beautiful." He told him as his eyes admired Cheng Sheng. However, there's no lust or malice in his eyes.

"You killed your sect?" Cheng Sheng asked.

"No." Dongfang Xiaoyun answered. "I wasn't lying when I said I killed nobody." He said.

"Since you killed everybody – " Cheng Sheng said and coughed up blood.

Dongfang Xiaoyun cut off his nonsense. "It was the strange corpses that killed them." He said.

"You indirectly killed them – " Cheng Sheng said.

"Shut up." Dongfang Xiaoyun said and slapped Cheng Sheng, annoyed. "Being smart also is a pain." He sighed.

"Yeah. Because it brings me pain after being beaten up by acting smart – " Cheng Sheng said.

"Shut up – "

"And also gives me a head pain – ngh!" Cheng Sheng cried when Dongfang Xiaoyun grabbed his hair and held his cheeks tight. Cheng Sheng tears up from the pain. Fuck! It really hurts! He cursed a hundred curses in his mind.

"You're too smart you found me out. How did you suspect me?" Dongfang Xiaoyun asked.

Cheng Sheng looked at the hand covering his mouth. Dongfang Xiaoyun immediately released his mouth, which was a mistake. "You're too stupid for a smart person like me." Cheng Sheng answered as he disdainfully looked at Dongfang Xiaoyun.

Dongfang Xiaoyun's face turned ugly as punched Cheng Sheng. Cheng Sheng felt like he was a punching bag. "Has no one told you you're annoying?" Dongfang Xiaoyun asked, frowning.

"Don't speak an overused script." Cheng Sheng told him and spat out the blood in his mouth. He felt like he lost a tooth. "And that's for shoujo manga. We're in BL genre." He added.

"Oh. Then, you're annoying."

"Wrong. It's still shoujo."

"I hate you."

"Shoujo – "

"I'll kill you." Dongfang Xiaoyun said.

"Passable." Cheng Sheng said, then froze when he felt something cold and sharp against his neck. "You're serious." He said.

"I have been serious." Dongfang Xiaoyun said.

Cheng Sheng sighed as he raised his hands. "I want to say something." He said.

"Speak."

Cheng Sheng looked at Dongfang Xiaoyun. "Villains die because they speak too much." He said, his eyes looking at him as if he was an idiot.

Dongfang Xiaoyun smiled as he stepped on the jade that transformed into a sword. Obviously, it was Cheng Sheng's. The sword struggled beneath the sole of Dongfang Xiaoyun's shoes. "Anything else?" Dongfang Xiaoyun asked.

Cheng Sheng smiled. "You talked too much you wasted too much time." He told him and glanced to the right.

Dongfang Xiaoyun turned. However, he saw no one. The next thing he knew he was kicked on the back of his head. He felt like his head had almost left his neck. He immediately was knocked out.

Fei Yin, on the other side, coldly looked at Dongfang Xiaoyun who was passed out cold on the ground, lying beside Cheng Sheng. Then, he ruthlessly kicked Dongfang Xiaoyun's face away from Cheng Sheng, making his body roll along with his head since it was still, fortunately or unfortunately, attached to his neck. Chen Han, Li Tian, and Feng Mo who finally arrived saw Dongfang Xiaoyun's bloody face he looked like nothing from his previous appearance. They looked at Cheng Sheng who was tidying his clothes using the Cleaning Talisman, then wiping his face off the blood and grime. Fei Yin was standing next to Cheng Sheng, his right hand clenched into a fist. His left hand… was holding a drink. They speechlessly looked at the two. What the hell just happened?

"Bind him." Fei Yin threw a look at them, then ignored them as he turned to Cheng Sheng who had finished cleaning himself. He only had some bruises on his arms, cheeks, and forehead. "Your drink." Fei Yin said as he gave Cheng Sheng the drink.

Cheng Sheng's eyes lit up as he immediately chugged down the water. "Ah! Many thanks, da shixiong!" he said and wiped his lips. However, he touched his lip cut and it bled.

Fei Yin took out the salve and thoughtlessly applied it to Cheng Sheng's lips. Then, on his cheeks and forehead. Finally, he applied it to Cheng Sheng's arms. The other three silently watched Fei Yin very gently apply the salve to Cheng Sheng's skin. They already had tied Dongfang Xiaoyun with the Immortal Binding rope.

Cheng Sheng turned to the three who were gaping at them. "Oh. Right." He said and walked towards Dongfang Xiaoyun after Fei Yin finished applying the salve. He kicked Dongfang Xiaoyun on his head, nose, chest, shoulders, stomach, legs, and knees. They can hear the bones crunching beneath the muscles. Dongfang Xiaoyun's chest almost caved in after Cheng Sheng broke all his ribs with just a kick. "Now he really was run over by a bullet train." Cheng Sheng said and triumphantly smiled. "OW – " he cried and grimaced when his stomach hurt. "I felt like my digestive organs were squashed flat." He said and doubled over, whimpering.

"Ah Sheng!" Chen Han called as he threw Dongfang Xiaoyun down to the ground. Li Tian and Feng Mo closed their eyes and grimaced when they heard Dongfang Xiaoyun's head hit the stone next to their feet.

Cheng Sheng shook his head as he immediately swallowed down a Restoration Pill. "I just forgot to heal my insides – " he said and took a deep breath when he felt his limbs cool down. He immediately sat on the ground in a lotus position. Then, he closed his eyes as he felt the qi moving inside his body.

The four watched Cheng Sheng until he fully recovered. "Can you move now?" Li Tian asked as he helped Cheng Sheng up.

"Mn." Cheng Sheng nodded as he stretched and felt his limbs. He recovered 80% of his strength.

Chen Han turned to Fei Yin and frowned. "Fei-shidi. What just happened? Why was Ah Sheng hurt?" he asked, glaring at Fei Yin. "Why did you leave him with Dongfang Xiaoyun when we still haven't even confirmed if he's an ally or foe?" he said. "I made you accompany them for you to ensure Ah Sheng's safety. Why did you still leav - ?" he asked.

Cheng Sheng cut him off. "It was I who made him leave." He said. They all looked at him. Cheng Sheng looked at Fei Yin. He knew his da shixiong was taciturn. He won't speak even if the other party is wronging him. He turned to Chen Han. "Da shixiong did nothing wrong. I was hungry and made him buy me a drink." He explained.

"You only made him buy you a drink?" Feng Mo asked.

"Feng-shidi, that's not the point here…" Li Tian reminded him.
