Chapter 9: Under the Bed
He didnt think hed get the bed. Last night, he wasnt offered the bed in the master bedroom either.
Do you not want it?
No, no. Xie Yu was shocked. Thank you, Boss.
Brother, then where do I sleep? Fatty asked Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng was irked that Fatty didnt call him boss, but he still replied, Youll take the couch, and Ill sleep on the ground. Fatty stood beside the bed and stared at Xie Yu, who was lying in bed. His eyes filled with resentment. Then, he turned around to tell Jiang Cheng, I think I can sleep in the bed.
Jiang Cheng spread the mattress on the ground and wiggled into position. No. You cannot.
Jiang Cheng and Fatty had to stay up to keep watch. Neither of them trusted the one in the bed. Jiang Cheng snatched the watch from Xie Yu since he wouldnt need it. He made a deal with Fatty that Fatty would stay up for the first three hours, and he would keep vigil for the later three.

At least when he woke up, the room was still dark. He rubbed his eyes and felt afraid.
Someone slept beside the bed. It was Jiang Cheng. Xie Yu was still a cocoon on the bed. Everything looked normal.
Even though Fatty was tired, he didnt dare to go back to sleep. To make matters worse, he suddenly wanted to use the toilet. The bedroom had an attached toilet, and it was 5 meters away from Fatty. It was very small, and it was cornered off with half-transparent glass.
However, ever since the middle-aged man died in the toilet, Fatty had a mental and physical resistance to using the toilet. He didnt even want to go near it.
He suddenly remembered Jiang Chengs solution!
The water bottles!
However, he soon sunk into a new pool of despair. Jiang Cheng tossed all the bottles into the trash can before he went to bed, and the trash can
