Xin Hulei gives the message on the screen a disinterested once-over before turning once again to Yao Shen. "I'd rather talk more about your yin yang eyes, that can see the world of the living and the dead."
Yao Shen glares at him while shaking the phone in front of his face. "Don't change the subject. What's the meaning of this?"
"Aren't you changing the subject, too?" he asks, after slowly chewing a mouthful of noodles. "Besides, I didn't send the message so that's a question better suited for Gao-laoshi."
Yao Shen lets out an exasperated sigh. Talking with Xin Hulei is like going in circles inside a labyrinth.
"He was acting all weird today, what did you do?" Yao Shen insists. He isn't letting Xin Hulei drop the issue so easily.
"I caught him snooping around your trailer this morning, while you were shooting."
He says it as naturally as if he were mentioning the weather.
