Chapter 176: Be a lemon
He didn’t realize it until he had left the building, when his subordinates told him.
He had been humiliated big time.
He had given them potatoes, and this was how they treated him.
“Ah, I’m really so embarrassed. Brother Chen, you’ve helped us so much, and we can’t even afford to treat you to a meal. My heart aches. I’m ashamed.” Lin Murong expressed with deep feeling, but Chen Yuan felt sick to his stomach.
“It’s okay, I just hope you guys find work soon. Sleeping on the floor every day is bad for your health.” If they had any ability, they should go find work, and he would make sure they paid for it.
“It’s okay, we love sleeping on the floor.”
Chen Yuan: “…”
The kitchen was checked as well and was completely empty, with minimalism as its main feature.
Chen Yuan was stuck in an awkward position, but Lin Murong wasn’t, as he could grin foolishly.
Every time Chen Yuan saw his smiling face, he wanted to hit him.
But he had to endure it.
He couldn’t win in a fight, absolutely not.
So many had tried before, and no one could beat him.
There was no one around this time; the subordinates Chen Yuan brought were the dregs of the dregs, and they stood no chance at all.
He was afraid of starting a brawl; he might end up being the one left behind.
Chen Yuan wasn’t strong in combat and mainly relied on his brains. His superiors also valued his intellectual agility, but if he really got his limbs broken, they would definitely not want him.
His brain was good, but there were many at the base whose brains were better, shrewder than his.
Chen Yuan could only endure.
He had to grit his teeth so hard they nearly shattered, yet he still had to smile.
It was infuriating.
Chen Yuan had planned to ask others for help.
But he worried that these three people were too strong and might break the limbs of anyone he borrowed.
He couldn’t afford that.
He would borrow them, but if they were returned broken, the owners would not let him off lightly.
Yet he truly couldn’t reconcile with this.
Chen Yuan left with a dark look on his face.
Lin Murong then began to furiously flatter the other two.
“I was scared to death just now; I thought he was going to find out. I didn’t expect you two to be so smart, so impressive. You even cleared out the stuff on the second and third floors; you guys move so fast.”
“It’s alright, using ‘space’ to store things is quite convenient.” Indeed, it was just a flick of the fingers, no need to move things physically.
How easy was that.
“Why don’t I have a ‘space’ too? I wish I could just wave my hand lightly, and have everything tucked away like you guys.”
As Lin Murong was talking, he began to feel jealous again.
The more time he spent with the two of them, the more he wanted a ‘space’ for himself. Having a ‘space’ was just too convenient.
Materials could be carried with him, and even throwing away trash was a breeze.
Like when he’s lying in bed, and after using a tissue, he still had to get up and run out of the room to throw it in the trash can. Those with a ‘space’ could just toss it right into their ‘space’.
Extremely convenient.
“Stop being envious, or you’ll turn into a lemon.” Su Yinhe patted him. People should maintain a common heart.
“If turning into a lemon would give me a ‘space,’ then I wish I were a lemon,” Lin Murong whimpered.
Su Yinhe: “…”
Alright.
Don’t understand, but respect.
After dealing with Chen Yuan, they decided to celebrate.
Lin Murong got the fried chicken and burgers he had been craving.
The moment he took the first bite, he was moved to tears.
Su Yinhe didn’t know whether to comfort him or not.
Seeing Chi Yan utterly indifferent, she ultimately decided not to comfort him.
Even his long-time friends didn’t bother, so why should she meddle?
Su Yinhe peacefully sipped on her cola.
She always felt the cola served with fried chicken seemed a bit more special.
Before Chen Yuan showed up, they had almost forgotten about him. But once he showed up, they remembered.
They hadn’t finished searching every place yet, but they could start by dealing with Chen Yuan.
They decided to trick Chen Yuan first, give him a beating or two as an initial measure.
That person was up to no good. Lin Murong and Chi Yan had been staying up all night hitting and dragging people around, missing out on sleep, and they just weren’t satisfied without giving him a good thrashing.
The first step in the sack-hooding plan was to get a clear grasp of Chen Yuan’s movements.
Figure out where he lived.
Chen Yuan was actually pretty easy to find; he’d usually roam around with a few of his subordinates, claiming to be on inspection.
But Lin Murong still thought he was just loafing around, slacking off.
They followed Chen Yuan and discovered that the place where he lived was quite well guarded, and he held a rather high position at the base.
After discussing amongst the three of them, they unanimously decided not to hood him outside his own home but to catch him off-guard on his way back home after his usual loitering.
If they tried at his place and were discovered, it wouldn’t be too convenient to make a quick getaway.
Although the three of them were quite formidable, Lin Murong had a bit of a wicked sense of humor and didn’t want to completely fall out with Chen Yuan just yet.
It would be inconvenient to tease Chen Yuan if he were spotted.
Su Yinhe didn’t quite understand this wicked sense of humor.
“Don’t you think it’s interesting to see Chen Yuan with his face all red, yet having to be polite and smile at us?” Lin Murong found him quite amusing.
Su Yinhe shook her head.
Not really.
She couldn’t see what was so amusing.
She just found it a bit irritating.
It was annoying how they always sent people around, enough to drive one mad.
Chi Yan and Lin Murong had been making sure they kept the noise down when they attacked people at night, but sometimes Su Yinhe would still be woken up.
Then, on the odd day when the noise woke her, she’d find herself unable to fall back to sleep, and then she’d end up watching videos, scrolling through them, staying up all night, and her sleep schedule would be all over the place.
She blamed all this on Chen Yuan.
Just seeing him irritated her.
“You don’t understand my pleasure,” Lin Murong said, shaking his head, feeling lonely.
Su Yinhe: “…”
Hey, hey, hey.
Go get yourself cured.
But it seemed there were no hospitals around now.
He was sick, and it looked like he would just have to stay sick.
The sack-hooding plan went very smoothly.
After they were prepared, they picked a day when Chen Yuan was late getting home.

Then they hooded him.
For this, Su Yinhe even contributed a few anesthetics.
Just for the purpose of using them on Chen Yuan’s subordinates.
Next, it was time to sack-hood Chen Yuan.
And then the three of them, fully armed, began to beat up Chen Yuan.
“Who are you?”
“Do you know who I am?”
“I am Chen Yuan.”
Chen Yuan was baffled when the sack came over his head.
After getting punched once, he came to his senses and started shouting.
But the people hooding him didn’t waste words, their hands never pausing, continuing to beat him.
Chen Yuan whined, nearly half dead from the beating, and that’s when they finally slowed down.
This was only because their hands were sore, but hey, their feet weren’t tired yet, so they began to kick.
Lin Murong was the main force, Su Yinhe occasionally chimed in, and Chi Yan kept watch.
After they finished, they ran.
By that time, Chen Yuan was breathing out more than he was breathing in.
He had absolutely no strength to struggle out of the sack.
And his subordinates were still knocked out.
If he knew who it was, he would definitely kill them.
After the beating, the trio headed back home, and Lin Murong began to feel a tinge of regret.
“Damn it, we even left a sack behind.”
Su Yinhe: “…”
It’s just a sack; he was taking it too hard.
“We might as well have given him a sack for free. He got a sack for a beating, we really got the short end of the stick.”
