Oh no, my deskmate is a yandere!

If we want him to stay in that environment for another whole day...

He'll go crazy.

He would rather have Jiang Nianxi by his side at all times.

"..."

Jiang Nianxi stopped and turned around to look at her.

She smiled.

Why?

"I...I..."

Yang An gritted his teeth, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

But I just can't bring myself to say the word "fear".

"I……"

"Or, since I don't have anything planned for today, I could stay and keep you company, okay?"

Jiang Nianxi said with a smile.

She saw Yang An's struggles clearly.

Of course, she knew what Yang An was afraid of.

After all, she planned all of this herself.

How could she not know?

"I……"

"Turning on the lights is out of the question, sweetie... Electricity is so expensive, we need to save money for our wedding, okay?"

"But."

"No buts, if it can't be driven, it can't be driven. Am I leaving?"

Jiang Nianxi lifted the partition halfway, pretending to crawl out, but actually secretly glancing at the young man on the chair out of the corner of her eye.

Sure enough, under the extreme fear of confinement, Yang An almost stammered out his words.

"I...I want you to stay!"

"What? Say it again?"

"I want... you to stay with me..."

Yang An's head was spinning.

He was afraid of the blurry black shadows hiding in the darkness.

I'm afraid of the inexplicable whispers that occasionally appear in my ear.

Some people were laughing and joking, while others were whispering.

Yang An could not see anyone.

All that could be seen was a shadow that resembled a human but was not.

In the darkness where there is no light, it is mixed and illusory.

In the darkness, there is no concept of existence or non-existence.

There is only truth and falsehood.

He was terrified; the only way to alleviate this claustrophobic pain was through the abuser in front of him.

"...Alright, but I have one condition."

Jiang Nianxi nodded, feigning mystery.

"Wh...what?"

"Well, it all depends on your...performance?"

She crossed her arms, her eyes crinkling with anticipation.

As for what was left unsaid.

She knew it in her heart.

Yang An, who had spent so much time with her, naturally understood this as well.

"..."

"Since you've just eaten, shall we begin now?"

Her smile was alluring.

Step by step, slowly and deliberately, he placed his hand on the top of the collar.

……

Jiang Nianxi kept her promise.

She stayed by Yang An's side all day.

She moved a small stool over and sat down next to Yang An, her fingers flying across her phone.

Humming an unknown little tune.

Judging from the looks of it, they must be writing something.

Yang An was too exhausted to look at it; his only thought now was to get a good night's sleep.

It's very uncomfortable to sleep sitting up with someone strapped to you.

But during his confinement, he didn't get a single good night's sleep.

I sleep on and off, and wake up on and off.

All I could see were shadows, some real, some fake.

They were peeping and scrutinizing.

In extreme fear, the only way to alleviate the panic is to dig your nails into your flesh.

Now, Jiang Nianxi, the culprit, is also the only living person left to keep her company.

The lights are on.

The long-awaited relaxation finally began to slowly envelop my entire body.

If one day, getting a full night's sleep becomes a luxury.

Whether the person beside you is the abuser or not seems irrelevant.

All I need is companionship in the darkness and in the closed space.

No social animal would like such a suffocating environment.

This is the home ground of cold-blooded animals.

It is also hell for social animals.
