That night, Bai Fendou tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
It wasn't fear, it was excitement.
He couldn't believe he was going to do this, but he felt he could manage!
He got up early, plunged his head into cold water, and He Lan was startled. "What are you doing? If you're nervous, we don't have to go. I don't need any payment, I just want us to live our lives peacefully."
Bai Fendou shook his head: "No, this has to be done! I know you hate their family, we need to give them a taste of their own medicine. Plus, there are other things to consider..."
He Lan was worried: "Can we really do it?"
Bai Fendou: "Don't worry, I have help. I..."
He looked a bit stuck for words but quickly added, "Just trust me, this will work out. Even if I get caught, someone will cover for me."
