60: Chapter 60 Waiting for Him
“Ahem, little girl, it was my fault you got dragged into this ss.” After ushering Driver Uncle Cao away, An Yiqing slowly walked into the school gate with Bai Yiming trailing behind her eagerly.
“Let’s leave this incident behind.
However, Young Master Bai, you should really avoid such pesky admirers in the future.
Even though you’re young and vigorous, it’s still best to take it easy,” An Yiqing warned Bai Yiming with a double entendre.
Watching the girl’s slender figure, Bai Yiming scratched his nose in embarrassnt.
The girl was still so sharp-tongued; doesn’t she know a man can’t admit to being unable to do it?
“Alright, alright, it’s my fault this ti.
I promise I’ll change,” Bai Yiming let An Yiqing prod with her soft knife and hurriedly assured her, “This ti consider it a favor you’re owed.
Whenever you decide what you want, I’ll be ready to deliver it with both hands.”
An Yiqing’s eyes twinkled as she thought of a plan.
She gave Bai Yiming a gentle smile, her little face shining radiantly.
But Young Master Bai always felt that this little girl was sowhat like a sly fox…
“Since Young Master Bai has made a promise, naturally, I can’t dismiss your kind intentions.” An Yiqing’s smile grew brighter, eying Bai Yiming like a lamb ready for slaughter, “There’s a piece of wasteland on the eastern side of Xuandu City I’ve taken a liking to.
However, the land is owned by Fenghua Real Estate.
I hear it belongs to Bai Group.
What do you say, Young Master Bai?”
Bai Yiming’s forehead throbbed, so this girl was waiting for him here?
“Little girl, if I hadn’t co to find you today, were you planning on setting this trap for
to fall into?” Bai Yiming crossed his arms, his dark eyes filled with amusent.
“Hmm…” An Yiqing tilted her little head, “With Young Master Bai’s charm that attracts countless won like moths to a fla, since the fire has spread to , I naturally can’t forfeit such an opportunity.”
The corner of Bai Yiming’s mouth twitched; not only was this girl sharp-tongued, but she was also very cunning!
“Sly little thing!
If you want that piece of land, then take it!” Although he was annoyed, Bai Yiming still indulged An Yiqing’s wish.
“Young Master Bai, I would never take it for free; we should follow the market price.
However, giving
a ten percent discount wouldn’t be too bad,” An Yiqing smiled slyly like a cat, then waved at Bai Yiming, “I’ve reached my dorm, Young Master Bai, I won’t see you out.”
Watching the girl’s cheerful and relaxed figure depart, Bai Yiming smiled helplessly, sly little girl!
——The little foodie’s dividing line——
Night, quiet and silent, in so corners, fearful and bizarre things were unfolding…
“Don’t co over!
Stay away!” The man’s face contorted strangely with fear.
“Tap—tap—tap—” From the unseen shadows, soone seed to approach the man step by step, the footsteps even and slow, but they hamred into the man’s heart with each drop.
Who in the world is this person?!
He must be soone sent by the mysterious figure!
It must be!
With difficulty, the man staggered backward, his wounds torn open, dripping blood continuously.
His panting was heavy and frantic, his pupils contracting violently with fear and despair.
“Don’t—don’t co closer!
I—I don’t know anything!
Let
go, please!
I don’t know anyth—ah!”
A strange dark shadow whizzed by, bringing with it a chilling and eerie breeze, and the decaying scent hidden in the air.
“Thud!” The man’s body stiffened as it crashed hard onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of unidentified dust.
Then, his skin rapidly began to wither; his face turned pitch-black, and eyes were wide open.
In the last mont of his life, his eyes captured nothing but terror…
The darkness continued to spread throughout the night, with horrifying things happening in every corner…
——The little foodie’s dividing line——
“Tsk tsk, Xuandu City is getting more and more unstable!
Murder and arson right under the feet of Tianzi, that’s so crazy!” Ruan Xue, eating breakfast in the canteen, lifted her pretty eyebrows and comnted sarcastically as she watched the news on TV.
“Eat your food!
All these things, yet they can’t shut you up!” Gu Tingting imdiately grabbed a bun and stuffed it into Ruan Xue’s mouth.
“Mmm—mmhmm—” Ruan Xue struggled for a while, finally managing to yank out the surprisingly large bun from her mouth, “Gu Tingting, dammit!
Are you itching for a fight?!”
“My grandpa isn’t ho!” Gu Tingting rolled her eyes.
Ruan Xue only knew how to say that crude phrase, and it had already worn out its welco.
An Yiqing, sitting across from them, shook her head helplessly at the sight.
These two seed like eternal enemies from a past life, bickering wherever they went, and as an innocent party, she was always caught in the crossfire.
╮(╯▽╰)╭ But…
another murder in Xuandu City?
She recalled Gu Yelin and Duan Tang ntioning it briefly last ti, but apparently, due to the Qin Family’s people scrambling for credit, Gu Yelin didn’t intervene much in the matter.
But now that it’s on TV, it seems like the Qin Family’s performance was indeed lacking.
As long as it doesn’t endanger the people around her, these events don’t concern her.
The laid-back An Yiqing couldn’t anticipate that trouble would find her that very afternoon.
——The little foodie’s dividing line——
Gu Family Mansion
“Three more murders occurred last night.
The Qin Family can’t cover it up anymore.
Ye Lin, what do you think?” In the quiet study, sat a vigorous old man who, despite his half-white hair, did not show his age and appeared more like soone in his fifties.
This man was the renowned Old Master Gu, Gu Zhongyi!
And sitting to his right was Gu Yelin’s father, Gu Weijun.
“The higher-ups will soon revoke the Qin Family’s decision-making powers.” Gu Yelin, dressed in a black shirt and trousers, looked dignified and aloof, “Only ‘Red Thorn’ can resolve this now.”
“Hmm, good,” Gu Zhongyi nodded his approval, proud of his grandson, “The chief has already called
today, and he’s entrusting the matter to you.”
“Understood,” Gu Yelin responded without saying much, maintaining his usual reticence.
“However, because this matter is particularly strange, I’m considering asking for help from the dicine Sect.
I’ll call the Sect Leader shortly, hoping the old fellow will co out of seclusion.
…”
For so reason, upon hearing Old Master Gu ntion the dicine Sect, Gu Yelin couldn’t help but think of An Yiqing’s radiant face.
He wondered how she had been these past few days…
