Chapter 96: They Made Their Move



Back in the dormitory, the others rushed to ask Lu Qing and Leng Wei about the details, but they could only shake their heads.

"Sorry, everyone, this is classified information, we can't tell anyone!"

Leng Wei's father's identity had to be kept secret, and the fact that there were spies at Kyoto University was even more unsuitable to be spread. Therefore, before they left, Yan Ruijin repeatedly told them not to tell anyone.

Upon hearing this, the three expressed their understanding.

Nothing happened that night. The next day after class, Leng Wei went to play billiards with Kou Chengxuan as agreed.

Lu Qing slipped a small paper doll into Leng Wei's bag for her protection, while he himself sat in Gu Xicheng's car and followed at a distance.

Lu Qing didn't tell Gu Xicheng what had happened; he just asked him to come and act as his driver.

Gu Xicheng wisely refrained from asking any questions.

Kou Chengxuan arranged to meet Leng Wei at a billiards room outside the school, seemingly ready to take action.

Sitting in Kou Chengxuan's car, Leng Wei was tense and nervous, as it was the first time she had done something like this.

Kou Chengxuan glanced at her and chuckled as he asked:

"Weiwei, why are you so nervous? I'm not going to do anything to you!"

"Ah? I..." Cold sweat broke out on Leng Wei's back in an instant:

"I... this is my first date."

Kou Chengxuan didn't seem to doubt this excuse.

"Are your family members that strict with you?" he asked with a smile.

Leng Wei nodded slightly: "Yes! My parents are quite conservative and never let me go out with my classmates alone, especially at such a late hour."

"Then if I bring you out, will they know?" Kou Chengxuan's words carried a hint of probing.

Fortunately, Leng Wei was just nervous and didn't lose her composure.

“I didn’t tell my parents. They’ve both been quite busy lately, especially my dad. I haven’t called him for several days.”

"Besides, I'm already in college, I'm an adult, I don't need to report to them every time I go!"

Leng Wei deliberately raised her head, and her nervous yet feigned nonchalance successfully established her image.

At this moment, in Kou Chengxuan's eyes, Leng Wei was just a well-behaved girl who had developed a rebellious spirit, and she was easy to control.

He couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth into a smile:

"Then let me take you out tonight to celebrate you becoming an independent girl!"

Leng Wei nodded, feigning excitement.

Upon entering the billiards room, everyone's gaze swept over Leng Wei, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Leng Wei knew that these people must have been arranged by Kou Chengxuan.

She took a deep breath quietly, trying her best to calm herself down.

Kou Chengxuan took a bottle of water from the refrigerator, unscrewed the cap, ran his finger around the bottle opening, and then handed it to Leng Wei:

"Weiwei, have some water first!"

Leng Wei smiled and took the water, but did not drink it immediately.

She didn't see Kou Chengxuan put the drug in, but her vigilance told her that there might be something wrong with the bottle of water.

Just as she was hesitating whether to drink it or not, Lu Qing transmitted a message to her through the little paper doll:

"There's a little bit of sleeping potion smeared on the bottle opening. Don't be afraid, just pretend you don't know anything and drink a little."

Hearing Lu Qing's voice, Leng Wei took a sip of the drink with peace of mind.

She knew that with Lu Qing around, she would be safe even if she fell into a coma.

Seeing Leng Wei drink the water, a smug, sinister smile crept onto Kou Chengxuan's lips.

Not long after, Leng Wei felt a wave of dizziness.

Kou Chengxuan quickly helped her up, pretending to know nothing, and asked:

"Weiwei, what's wrong?"

Leng Wei pretended not to know anything and replied:

"I feel a little dizzy."

"Then let me help you sit in the chair for a while."

Kou Chengxuan helped Leng Wei to a chair, and as he watched her gradually lose consciousness, he sneered.

"If I had known it would be so easy to fool you, I wouldn't have gone to all that trouble."

A portly middle-aged man walked in and handed Kou Chengxuan a device for collecting iris data.

"Nakata-kun, you've worked hard! As long as you successfully bring the items back, your bonus will definitely be no less than six figures!"

Kou Chengxuan gave a cold laugh, then pried open Leng Wei's eyelids and pointed the instrument at her eyes.

Her iris data was extracted shortly afterward.

"Now that we have the goods, what are you going to do with this girl?" the middle-aged man asked Kou Chengxuan.

Kou Chengxuan gazed at Leng Wei's face, a wicked smile suddenly creeping onto his lips:

"I've never liked taking things from others for free. Since she likes me so much, I don't mind satisfying her for one night."

As he spoke, Kou Chengxuan reached out and gently stroked Leng Wei's cheek with his finger.

Upon seeing this, Lu Qing immediately got out of the car and headed straight for the billiards room.

Just as Kou Chengxuan was about to undress Leng Wei, there was a knock on the door.

"Weiwei, Weiwei, are you inside?"

Kou Chengxuan's expression changed drastically.

Why would Lu Qing come?

"You go upstairs quickly, I'll handle her!"

The middle-aged man said disdainfully, "It's just a girl, isn't it? Let her in. We don't have enough to go around with!"

Kou Chengxuan was furious:

"What do you know! She's not an ordinary girl, she's Gu Xicheng's fiancée!"

“The Gu family has too much influence in Kyoto. If we really offend them, we will die without even waiting for the National Security Bureau to arrest us.”

Upon hearing the name Gu family, the middle-aged man looked terrified and immediately went upstairs.

Kou Chengxuan buttoned up Leng Wei's clothes, then took out a handkerchief from his pocket and held it under her nose, letting her smell it for a while.

Leng Wei quickly regained consciousness, and Kou Chengxuan went to open the door.

Upon seeing Lu Qing, he feigned surprise:

"Lu Qing, what are you doing here?"

"Senior Kou, I'm so sorry, I need to talk to Weiwei about something."

Lu Qing walked towards Leng Wei, feigning anxiety, and said:

"You went out to play before handing in the homework the teacher assigned yesterday. The class representative has reminded you several times. If you don't hand it in soon, the teacher will deduct points from your grade."

Leng Wei was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening and began to play along with Lu Qing's act:

"How could I have forgotten about my homework!"

Lu Qing: "I've been looking for you for so long. You didn't reply to my messages or answer my calls. If I hadn't seen your posts on WeChat Moments, I wouldn't have known you were here."

Leng Wei blinked and took out her phone:

"I'll send the assignment to the class representative right now."

At this moment, Kou Chengxuan walked over and asked:

"Lu Qing, you went to such lengths to find Leng Wei so she could hand in her homework. You two are really close!"

Kou Chengxuan clearly had doubts about Lu Qing.

He scrutinized Lu Qing's face, seemingly trying to find a trace of a lie in her expression.

But Lu Qing just smiled:

“We’re not just roommates, we’re friends. How can I just stand by and watch Weiwei get punished by the teacher!”

After saying that, Lu Qing immediately changed the subject and asked Leng Wei:

"By the way, why didn't you reply to my messages or answer my calls just now?"

Leng Wei took out her phone, frowning as she said:

"There seems to be no signal here. I haven't even successfully sent my homework yet!"

To prevent any accidents, Leng Wei would call for help from the outside world; there was a signal jammer in the billiard room.

Kou Chengxuan immediately gave the person at the bar a look, and he quietly turned off the equipment, and only then did the phone get a signal.

Leng Wei's assignment was successfully sent, and unread messages and missed calls also popped up.

"The signal is bad here. I was feeling a bit unwell just now, dizzy and lightheaded, like I'd been drugged!"

Leng Wei said this on purpose, and now it was Kou Chengxuan's turn to be nervous.

Lu Qing glanced at the water bottle on the table next to Leng Wei, a playful glint in his eyes, then picked it up:

"Weiwei, did you just drink that? I'm actually a little thirsty!"

This action startled Kou Chengxuan, who quickly reached out and snatched the water away.
