Demon King – Chapter 518 – Traps and Counter-Traps in Preparation

With a bang, the dorm door was once again suddenly flung open, and two dorm supervisors rushed in with an air that strongly resembled an “FBI OPEN THE DOOR” moment.

Of course, they came up empty again. Scenes like this had already happened who knew how many times during this period. Because of it, a certain girl had developed a conditioned reflex. Even when she was half-asleep and dozing, she could instantly jump up and cast illusions.

In the entire dorm, only she could handle this kind of situation. To be honest, even she was starting to get mentally tense from it all. In order to keep everyone from getting written up, she stayed in the dorm the whole time and did not even go to work. Being on edge all day long like this was truly torturing the mental state of this poor girl.

“I’m just saying, dorm supervisor, even if you don’t believe us, if we really brought someone in, wouldn’t they have to sneak past you downstairs right under your noses? If we could really bring someone in, then what are you guys even doing downstairs? Or are you saying you think you’re just slacking off down there every day?”

After so many times, the guys in 1503 had also started to get annoyed. The more hot-tempered Ziyu directly started complaining at the dorm supervisors. Jixian beside him reacted quickly and immediately jabbed him with his elbow, signaling him to watch his attitude.

In a place like the dorms, the supervisors were the biggest authority. Offend them, and the whole dorm would be screwed. You can be fired up, Ziyu, but do not actually drag the rest of us down with you.

Ziyu quickly shut his mouth. It was hard to tell whether the dorm supervisors heard him or not. After finding nothing again, they soon left the dorm and closed the door behind them.

“This is just ridiculous. Are they rushing to hit some kind of performance quota? Do they get bonuses for catching violations?”

After the supervisors left, Ziyu started complaining again. Every time everyone was focused on their own stuff, the dorm supervisors would suddenly kick the door open. Anyone would get fed up with that.

Especially a certain someone who felt sorry for his little girlfriend. Who had it the hardest during this period, everyone knew. Seeing Eiru still lying there like a startled kitten, nerves stretched tight and unable to relax, Yuki reached out to comfort her as she lay on the bed.

“If I knew which bastard reported us, I’d peel his skin off!”

He said that, but Jixian had already reported the investigation results once. After Yunyue was cleared of suspicion, everyone was completely out of leads. Yuki’s words carried more than a hint of helpless rage.

“Stupid Yuki, go take a shower. I’m not that weak yet.”

The little Demon Lord patted the hand stroking her head and, remembering that he still had not showered, took the chance to remind him.

“If you don’t shower, I’m not sleeping with you. No shower, no getting on the bed. You don’t want to sleep on the floor, do you?”

“Alright alright, be good, wifey. I’m going right now.”

Yuki replied with a placating smile, grabbed his towel, and gathered his clothes, preparing to go shower in the balcony bathroom.

“This is already full-on wife discipline, huh. Tsk tsk tsk… Brother Yuki is really being completely wrapped around the little princess’s finger.”

Ziyu naturally was not going to miss the chance to tease at this ridiculous scene.

“But more often than not, isn’t it the little princess who’s being completely eaten up?”

Jixian leaned in close to Ziyu’s ear and voiced a different opinion.

“I’ll bet a meal that the little princess is on top.”

“Hah, if you’ve got the guts, make it that the loser covers all three meals for a whole day. I dare say the little princess will definitely be the one on the bottom.”

“Hey, you two assholes, what the hell are you talking about?”

Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s face was about to turn black. You are discussing this right in front of the person involved. Do you have any respect for her at all?

—— More than ten minutes later ——

Because the topic had gone way too far off the rails, Jixian and Ziyu were laughing and joking as they were directly kicked out of the dorm by a certain girl who had gone berserk from embarrassment and rage. Of course, they took the opportunity to go hang out in the neighboring dorm and would naturally come back later.

After Yuki finished showering, he was about to wash some clothes at the sink on the balcony when he suddenly discovered that his little girlfriend was actually on the phone with someone inside the dorm.

Maybe because she was the only one left in the dorm, this carefree girl had even turned on speakerphone. As long as Yuki focused a little, he could clearly hear what the person on the other end was saying.

It was just a phone call. Although it was pretty rare for Eiru, Yuki truly had no intention of prying into other people’s privacy or eavesdropping on phone calls. But the somewhat familiar voice on the other end made his movements come to an abrupt halt.

“So, LuLu, are you still planning to buy that model to give to your boyfriend? If you don’t have enough money, I can lend it to you first…”

Isn’t that the voice of that bastard? Yuki’s heart jolted. If it was that asshole Agui, he really could not afford not to pay attention. If his stupid girl got tricked by that punk again, he would have nowhere to cry.

“No choice, I haven’t saved enough yet… and I’ve had things going on these days so I can’t work part-time…”

The little Demon Lord sighed.

“But don’t even think about it. I’ve told you before, I won’t agree to that kind of thing. Don’t use lending money as a pretext to screw me over.”

“No, don’t misunderstand. I was just joking that day… we’re friends, lending you money isn’t a big deal, and you don’t need to do anything.”

The voice on the other end sounded both amused and helpless. If not for knowing the guy had ulterior motives, the first impression would already have been set. Otherwise, even Yuki might have been fooled by his attitude.

“Emmmmm…”

Propping her chin up with both hands, after hearing that there were no additional conditions, Eiru really did hesitate a bit.

Seeing no response for quite a while, just as the other party seemed to think the girl was about to agree, drawing in a slightly excited breath, Her Majesty the Demon Lord still sighed and rejected the proposal.

“Let’s forget it. My parents have taught me since I was little not to borrow money from others and stuff like that. So I think it’s still not appropriate.”

In this regard, Ei Yuan and Liu Wan had done a pretty solid job. With the two kids, they had always instilled this idea. When facing difficulties, rely on yourself as much as possible. Unless it was absolutely unavoidable, do not borrow money from others. Especially relatives or friends. You absolutely should not seek financial help from them.

As people who had fought their way through the business world, they understood human relationships very well. In the view of this pair of parents, once money was involved, it was very easy to affect relationships between friends and even relatives. So they had indeed instilled this kind of thinking into their children from a young age.

“I see. That’s understandable too…”

The person on the other end sounded thoughtful. Amid the little Demon Lord’s regretful and disappointed sigh, he proposed a new plan.

“You also wouldn’t want it to be snatched up by someone else. How about this. I’ll buy it for you first. I’ll keep the item with me. When you have the money, you can come to me and buy it. I’ll sell it to you at the original price. How about that?”

“Huh? Really?!”

As if a village had appeared beyond the dark willow trees, Her Majesty the Demon Lord’s eyes lit up, and her emotions instantly surged.

That way, it would not count as borrowing money. The nature of the issue really did change. Eiru felt she could accept this kind of arrangement. With the surprise gift for Yuki now secured, she became happy all at once.

‘Stupid. Too stupid. How did you fall for it just like that?’

Yuki sighed, picked up his phone, and dialed a number. Since the other side had laid a trap, he naturally had to start preparing a counter-trap.

“Hello, Aunt Xuan? Yes, it’s me. I need to trouble you with something. I’ll send you the address of a model shop. See if it’s convenient for you to head over there right now…”
