As soon as he left, Luo Yingbai got up and checked his phone.
Deng Wanlin didn’t notice Luo Yingbai’s momentary change of expression and said irritably: “You acted so convincingly, I thought you were dead! Why are you getting up?”
Luo Yingbai quickly returned to normal, jumping down from the desk: “I haven’t brushed my teeth yet… and I have something tonight, I’ll probably need to go out and won’t be back to sleep.”
Deng Wanlin was surprised: “What’s so sudden?”
Luo Yingbai winked at him and went to the bathroom.
When alone, his face became slightly serious. After a moment of contemplation, he took out some blank talisman paper, bit his finger, and drew symbols on them with his blood, then carefully put the papers in his pocket.
He had just received a text from an unknown number, brief and to the point – “Be at the school’s back gate by 10, or your entire dorm will be in trouble.”
Luo Yingbai decided to make them suffer first.
There were not three people in the car; besides the muscular driver, there was also the small-eyed glasses guy who had covered his mouth earlier. He looked at Luo Yingbai like he was looking at an idiot: “Posting on your damn Moments! You think I brought you out for a joyride? I’m warning you, stay honest and don’t play crazy or try any tricks, or I’ll mess you up!”
Luo Yingbai touched his chin: “Hmm, this sounds like something from the underworld.”
The small-eyed glasses guy went crazy: “Shut up!”
He wanted to teach Luo Yingbai a lesson, but just then the car jolted heavily, and his hand didn’t reach out.
Luo Yingbai seemed not to hear him, muttering to himself: “No, that’s not right. This is a Bentley Brooklands limited edition, with only 550 globally produced. In this city, only two were acquired – one given by Old Master Xia to his grandson as a birthday gift, and the other owned by the top-tier superstar Ou Ziheng.”
The small-eyed glasses guy and the muscular man: “…”
Irritation and pain were temporarily forgotten. The two looked at each other, having been instructed earlier not to reveal any information. Yet, before they could say much, their cover was blown.
