289 Demonic Posesions

He pursed his lips and looked away before sighing in resignation and looking back at the intercom camera, "I will keep my distance. I just want to talk to you."

Lu Xinyi snorted and bowed her hands on her chest at the obvious bait. He must be an inexperienced, young demon! Not even a seven-year-old would fall for this juvenile trick! 

He should have said there was something of hers that he wanted to hand over to her or he should have acted like he was heartbroken about something if he would have been in tears and vulnerability, any woman would fall for it!

"We are talking." She said coolly with a smug smirk. She was too ahead of his game to fall for his demonic charms and sugary baits. Ha!

Yu Youhan finally was at the end of his wits and sighed, "I want a cup of coffee."

She clicked her tongue in boredom, "I have run out of coffee."

"I will drink tea."

She cried out in exasperation, "I don't drink tea!" They both knew she did and she did it a lot.

He resigned and retorted vehemently, "I will have water."

She scoffed at the clear desperation and nailed it, "The water in my house is contaminated. It is laced with holy water!" The last part was to scare whatever thing was on her door.

Fisting his hand, he glared at the intercom camera and took out the key that he had extorted from the reception, and dangled it in front of the camera, "I am coming in!"

Lu Xinyi jumped back in fright at the sight of the duplicate key. That was such a stalker psychopath move! But how foolish! That rookie should never have shown her the key, instead should have pretended to leave then when she would be asleep he could murder her easily!

She ran all the way to her bedroom and hid behind a curtain, hearing the footsteps that followed.

Yu Youhan entered the Condo to everything dark but only the LED screen lightening up the place, showing him the pathway. He turned on his phone light to see and after a little juggling, he found the light switch. He was surprised by the tastefully elegant decor of the place. 

He was expecting feather or fluffy stuff with fairy lights and pastel colors, totally vomiting-worthy girlish stuff. Her place was so well organized unlike her personality that he would assume he was in the wrong place if Lu Xinyi hadn't spoken gibberish with him a while ago.

The footsteps were nearing and Lu Xinyi's heart was thudding in her chest by fear and her body was breaking out in cold sweats.

She prayed to GOD to help her 'exorcist' the demon although she didn't know many verses what so ever. She held her Baseball Bat tighter to her chest and kept murmuring prayers.

"Lu Xinyi, are you behind there?" She heard the demons' voice and her breath stilled. The Devil's spawn had found her and now he was going to make a virgin sacrifice out of her! And then eat her meat like a cannibalistic beast! 

But she knew she was selected by the Great Entity to end this 'unholy' being for once and for all so she steeled her resolves and as the silhouette of the man neared her, she cried out, "In The Name Of The Lord, By The Power Vested In Me, I Condemn You BACK TO HELL!" And with that final call, she swung the baseball bat right on his face.

Yu Youhan's eyes widened and on pure instinct, he took hold of the baseball ball mid-air that was aiming at his face. He jerked the bat and threw it across the room.

His disbelieving eyes fell on Lu Xinyi whose eyes were wide and… face was 'stoned' by flour?

"What the hell was that? Were you trying to kill?" He asked incredulously.

Lu Xinyi instinctively shook her head, and gulped, "I… You… You were possessed!" With a calculative step backward she stammered, "I am sorry but the demon exorcised from your body the exact time I tried purifying you!"

Whatever it was that was making her feel so fidgety but for a matter of fact, she looked like a clown minus the tomato nose and she was speaking like a lunatic on loose.

He looked at her with a frown, trying to make sense of whatever it was she was trying to make him understand, "Possessed… Demon… Exorcist… Purify." He shook his head not getting a word of what she was trying to deliver, "What the f*ck Lu Xinyi? And what have you done to your face? Is that... cement on your face and what have you done to your hairs?!"

She touched her face and remembered her mask that was stretching her face as it was dry, she needed to wash it off soon, "This… this is a facial mask and theses are rollers on my hairs." She mumbled in embarrassment.

Her eyes turned sharp a moment later and lit up with fury as she jumped on him to take off his mask and reveal his identity.

"Lu Xinyi! Have you gone mad?!"

She was scratching and pinching his face like a deranged stray cat and the only thing keeping her from biting it was his hand on her waist, keeping her at a distance.

After her thorough 'inspection', her eyes widened at the realization that he was the REAL Yu Youhan! 

She gasped and stepped back then her eyes fell on her appearance in the front mirror, giving her another jolt of a close call to a heart attack.

"This is not a prosthetic mask and you don't look possessed." She sheepishly whispered and bowed her head to look innocent. Well… as much as she could with her current appearance.

He looked at her for a moment without blinking, he had no resolution as to if he was supposed to burst out laughing at her obnoxious thought process or bang his head against her hers to transfer some common sense. But he in fact wanted to drag her to the laboratory to check if she was onto something.

While he was contemplating, she hissed looking at her heinous Halloween get-up of Medusa, and ran past him to the bathroom to fix herself.

She washed off her face and combed her hair after taking off the rollers, looking like an almost decent woman when her eyes fell on her see-through robe and bugs bunny socks.

She groaned banging her head against the Timber door. She totally made a fool out of herself, in front of the guy she recently discovered she had a crush on for a long time and the guy she was supposed to seduce to be in the cool girls club!

Now, she was by far the most stupid girl! What was wrong with her?! Weeping and wailing for a while she changed her attire to some night suit with strawberry prints.

Her obsession with morbidity and her superficial fantasies are to be faulted for today! He was probably laughing at her while holding his stomach or planning her funeral for real, after all, she really was going to ruin his face with that baseball bat!

She felt like filling her bathtub with lukewarm water and suicide! 

Having drawn all the wrong lots for the night she took a calming breath and took out her phone which she had picked on her way to this room to call security if needed.

She really needed a girlfriend's advice at this moment. Her thumb hovered over Su Qing's name for a while but then she chose against it and dialed Yin Lin's number instead.

Yin Lin was far more genuine and she liked hearing from her. Whatever it is she had to say, she knew she would follow whatever will please Yin Lin even if meant jumping off the cliff!

The bell rang three times and just before it could die down the phone was picked but it wasn't Yin Lin who spoke but a familiar yet unfamiliar voice.

"Who the f*ck is it?" A harsh husky male voice stunned her to stone on her place. Apparently, he was sleeping and was rudely awakened nad he was in no way thrilled about it.
