After waiting and waiting without seeing Que Guanghuai return, the group decided to leave the library and wait for him near the Aurora River.

Just as he stepped out of the library, a whirlwind-like figure flashed before his eyes. Judging by his build and clothes, wasn't that Old Que?

Where is he going?

"Let me tell you, I've never seen him run this fast in school. He's always the last one in exams... What's wrong with him this time? Did he eat a bomb or is he in a hurry to be reincarnated?"

Song Wenzhi's eyes widened immediately.

No, no, if he runs this fast, won't I end up in last place?

"Old Que!"

Qian Bolun shouted at Que Guanghuai's retreating figure. But the guy ignored him, turned a deaf ear, rushed into a shopping mall, and came out a minute later, carrying a large black umbrella, heading straight for the Aurora River.

Following Song Wenzhi, Qian Bolun also swore that in all the years he had known Lao Que, he had never seen this guy run so fast!

Everyone: "..."

“There’s a hidden world beneath the Aurora River.” Yan Chiyu snuggled closer to Wu Yue, leaned down, squinted, and rested his chin on her shoulder, saying lazily, “Although I don’t agree with you meddling in this.”

Wu Yue didn't find it troublesome at all—oh, if it were the old her, she definitely would have found it troublesome.

But now it's her friend who's in trouble, the friend she's supposed to build a fortune with and incubate into a billionaire.

So it's not so troublesome after all.

"Isn't Lao Que's grandfather your friend? Isn't Lao Que your classmate?" Wu Yue turned her face away and looked up at him.

The two were quite close at the moment. When Wu Yue turned her head, her thick eyelashes gently swept across the young man's jade-colored cheeks. The warm breath she exhaled as she spoke stirred up a thousand layers of heat on Yan Chiyu's face.

The boy slightly twitched his fingers, almost as if he wanted to put his arm around the girl's waist.

The three single people glanced over, and the same words floated from their eyes: 'The dogs were all tricked in and then killed,' they thought all the time.

The five people waited by the roadside for a while longer.

"Yan Xiaoyu".

"Yes, I'm here."

"Stand up straight, are you spineless? You go weak at the sight of me?"

Heaven knows that Wu Yue didn't mean anything by those words; they were just saying them literally.

Can--

Upon hearing this, Yan Chiyu immediately straightened his posture. His handsome eyebrows rose slightly, then lowered. His eyes were deep and dark, and he exuded a chilling aura, with a hint of anger swirling around Wu Yue.

The girl paused for a moment, then suddenly realized what she had said and quickly tried to cover it up: "Oh dear, I meant you're very hard!"

The words fell.

The three of them blushed...

They looked at each other in bewilderment and then decisively moved aside, increasing the distance between themselves and Wu Yue and the others.

"I'm hard? Have you tried?" Yan Chiyu said expressionlessly, clearly hurt by Wu Yue's initial words. Even the girl's subsequent attempts to explain couldn't soothe his wounded heart.

Wu Yue glanced at Yan Chiyu. Admittedly, she had made a small mistake, but she had already explained it. If he was still unwilling to forgive her, then he was deliberately giving her the cold shoulder.

For the sake of Yan Xiaoyu, she forced a smile and tried to maintain her last bit of patience: "Of course I haven't tried it. What about you? You're so old, you must have met many women who secretly admired you before. Who knows, maybe you've tried it."

Yes, with someone as outstanding as Yan Chiyu and so handsome, how could he not have women around him?

Men need to satisfy their physiological needs.

Oh.

Wu Yue was suddenly amused by her own thoughts, and the heat on her face instantly turned cold.
