The City of Terror Chapter 400

Chapter 400 - Extreme Narcissism

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

 Wei Xiao Bei could forgive Zhang Jin Hua’s ignorance. After all, she was thinking about her home. However, he felt that he should mention his salary level. Otherwise, she might say even dumber things.

“I work at Long Hu Dou Restaurant with a salary of 20,000 a month, so….I apologize.”

Wei Xiao Bei hoped the number would be enough to shut her mouth.

However, he never imagined that Zhang Jin Hua was not of the same perspective.

“20,000 a month? Great, my parents would agree.”

The words she said afterward had stunned him.

 I have a 20,000/month salary, what do your parents have to do with it?

However, he did not even need to rack his brain for an answer as she continued, “I agree with your proposal.”

Pfff!

After hearing this, Wei Xiao Bei wanted to vomit blood. He was doubting his memory as he tried to understand why such a misunderstanding had occurred.

 How did it reach this step?

However, after carefully thinking, he was certain that he never said anything that could make Zhang Jin Hua misunderstand.

The only problem was her.

 Could it be that she is still under the effects of hallucination?

No matter what, he was unwilling to continue talking to her.

It was like the phrase, ‘Never argue with an idiot. They’ll drag you down to their level and defeat you with experience.’

Wei Xiao Bei had this kind of feeling.

Zhang Jin Hua’s thoughts were completely perpendicular to his.

Thus, he could only leave.

After he decided to leave the Dust World, his body became transparent without any hesitation.

Seeing Wei Xiao Bei close his eyes as his body was disappearing, Zhang Jin Hua was stunned. When she thought of touching him, her hand passed through the air,

She never imagined this would happen.

 Running away? Don’t think about it!

It is impossible for men that I fancy to run away!

Humans were like this. The more they cannot obtain something, the more they want to obtain it.

Although her brain might work differently from normal people, this still stayed true.

…..

As Wei Xiao Bei gradually opened his eyes, the steel roof of the room entered his eyes.

 I have returned.

Wei Xiao Bei sighed. He could not recall the battle with the Thousand Eyed Devil or digging out its eyes, but instead, he could only think about Zhang Jin Hua.

It could be said that he felt as if he had been cursed by her.

Naturally, her impression in Wei Xiao Bei’s mind was very deep because she was simply too weird.

After a while, he tossed these thoughts to the back of his mind.

Going back to the matter at hand, Wei Xiao Bei recalled something.

 I seem to have forgotten to tell Zhang Jin Hua how to leave the Dust World.

 It should not be a problem, right?

Even if he wanted to remedy this, Wei Xiao Bei could not enter the Dust World again. Zhang Jin Hua could only rely on her luck now.

He left the office and greeted the project manager. Then he immediately drove away from the construction site.

Wei Xiao Bei never imagined that after leaving, he would suddenly receive a phone call.

The number looked familiar and he remembered that it was a number that Zhou Xing Yuan had dialed before. It was the number of the construction site.

“Hello, this is Wei Xiao Bei.” Wei Xiao Bei slightly deepened his voice.

“Teacher Wei, it’s me, Old Zhang. It’s like this, a woman appeared in your office and said she knew you, but did not know your name.”

The project manager’s words were strange.

 A woman appeared in the office who knows me but doesn’t know my name?

Wei Xiao Bei was baffled. He thought that it might be a swindler. When he was about to say that he did not know her, he suddenly remembered someone, “Ask her if her name is Zhang Jin Hua.”

Although he told Old Zhang to ask this, he felt that this was impossible.

The place Zhang Jin Hua had entered was not the construction site office. Even if she found a way to leave, then the place where she should appear in the real world was the place she was previously. It should not be in his office!

However, after two minutes, Old Zhang had called back, “She said her name was Zhang Jin Hua, your fiancee.”

Old Zhang wanted to curse Wei Xiao Bei for why his fiancee was in the office, could it be that he was trying to turn the place into their love nest?

It was easy to imagine how arrogant Zhang Jin Hua was when dealing with old Zhang.

 It’s Zhang Jin Hua?

 This is illogical!

Wei Xiao Bei was baffled.

It could be said that the total amount of time Wei Xiao Bei had been baffled all his life could not compare to today.

After he hurriedly drove back, Wei Xiao Bei’s face was filled with displeasure as he dragged Zhang Jin Hua out of the construction site guardhouse.

He had no choice. If he did not deal with her, she would be sent to the local police station. If that happened, he did not know what she would say there.

In short, Wei Xiao Bei wanted to send her back and cut off all connections with this trouble magnet.

Naturally, he would first find out why Zhang Jin Hua appeared in his office before sending her back.

Just as Wei Xiao Bei predicted, Zhang Jin Hua became surprised when she saw the Volvo in front of her.

It was clear that in terms of car brands, Zhang Jin Hua knew more than Wei Xiao Bei.

“I remember that this vehicle cost around 1.58 million in last month’s showcase.”

She had accurately recalled the true price of the car.

After sitting in the front passenger seat, Zhang Jin Hua began to fondle it admiringly. In the end, her eyes moved to Wei Xiao Bei’s body, making him feel as if she was about to devour him.

“Where is your home? I’ll send you back.”

Wei Xiao Bei wore a pair of sunglasses to hide his expression.

“You want to meet my parents immediately I know, but I am still not ready for it.”

Perhaps because Zhang Jin Hua’s brain was truly stranger than most people’s, she had once again misunderstood Wei Xiao Bei’s words as she displayed a shy expression.

Wei Xiao Bei rejoiced that he was wearing sunglasses as they covered his jerking face muscles. He had successfully endured the impulse; Otherwise, he would have to deal with a murder case.

At this moment, he most wanted to say, “Lady, do you have any shame?”

Naturally, he knew that her world view was different from his. Perhaps his so-called shame was not even in her dictionary.

However, she also had times where she was normal.

Just when Wei Xiao Bei was about to throw her out of the car, Zhang Jin Hua said her home address. Although she still appeared to be squirming out of shyness, he was finally able to suppress his anger. After driving the car like an F1 racecar, he was able to drive to her home in just ten minutes.

Just as Zhang Jin Hua had said, their home was truly a restaurant called Zhang Family Restaurant. However, their business appeared to be performing quite bad. Otherwise, Zhang Jin Hua would not try to get him to marry her.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei could only decline.

After the car stopped, he told her to not move.

Zhang Jin Hua had thought that Wei Xiao Bei wanted to give her a goodbye kiss. Who knew that when Wei Xiao Bei looked at her, she felt as if he had seen through everything as if the depths of her heart had been exposed. Fortunately, Wei Xiao Bei immediately pulled back his gaze. However, she had been frightened to the point that she did not even think about goodbye kisses anymore. She immediately got out of the car as if a crazy dog was chasing behind her and disappeared inside the restaurant.

There was no doubt that Wei Xiao Bei had used [Status Appraisal] on her.

Wei Xiao Bei was stunned that she had noticed the soul-peeking feeling of [Status Appraisal].

It must be known that although [Status Appraisal] could be detected, only strong creatures could do so, or someone with a special innate skill like Zhu Xin Yi.

Zhang Jin Hua’s actions were no doubt odd.

No matter what, being able to scare Zhang Jin Hua away made him feel good.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei was worried that once she came to her senses, she might once again attach herself to him. He quickly stepped on the gas and drove away.

It was only when he was on the way back did he relax and began to check her status.

The floor and table were covered in dust, his new poster of Zhang Liang Ying that had just been posted on the wall a few days ago had already become yellow and tattered all over. Even Zhang Liang Ying’s beautiful face became monstrous, as if an old devil was looking at him with a terrifying smile. The walls were covered by a mist of cobwebs and the fruits placed on top of the coffee table were withered and rotted to the point that the mold on them had turned black. The fruits below even seemed to have turned into mush. The aluminium framed window that the landlord had just installed not that long ago was now covered in a layer of white ash and the glass was filled with cracks and covered in dust. The computer beside his bed was also covered by cobwebs and was accompanied by an empty water glass with a withered worm inside of it. Dust filled the air making Wei Xiao Bei choke as he tried to breathe. Everything seemed to be ash gray without any light, as if looking at television static.
