After waking up, Bai Ye rubbed his eyes wearily and prepared to go to his 8 a.m. job.
He just signed the contract yesterday and is moving out of the dorm, which makes him really excited. He couldn't sleep last night.
After thinking about it, it's obviously not realistic to move in today, because if I don't live in the dormitory, I have to report to the class teacher and let the school know.
Otherwise, if he's not in the dorm and gets seen by the dorm inspectors, he'll get a disciplinary action.
So I have to go see the homeroom teacher today to explain the situation.
...
After telling his homeroom teacher about renting a place outside, the teacher didn't say much, just told Bai Ye to wait a moment.
When he returned, he was holding several sheets of paper.
Bai Ye was asked to sign a statement specifying where he would stay after leaving campus, and also to sign a liability waiver, since they would no longer be responsible for him after he left the school, and they would be held accountable if any problems arose.
After happily signing his name, Jin said goodbye to his homeroom teacher.
...
I stretched wearily; the club's recruitment had come to a complete end.
Due to some issues, the dessert-making event in collaboration with the food club at Mengxuejie's place needs to be postponed for a few days, so there's no rush to finalize the list of participants.
Just as Bai Ye was about to return to his dormitory, he received a message that surprised him.
After leaving the school gate, I arrived at a quiet bar.
He walked in with a complicated expression and saw a handsome man.
As soon as he entered, the other person started waving and greeting him.
Bai Ye pulled out a chair and sat down next to him, asking in confusion, "Why did you call him out?"
Bai Ye wasn't originally going to come, but he made a condition that forced Bai Ye to go.
When he was pursuing Yao Yuyan, he made a promise to Gu Yanzhi when he asked Gu Yanzhi for help.
Bai Ye was filled with regret. He owed Gu Yanzhi four conditions, and even if he used one now, he would still have two left.
At the time, he confidently declared that unless he died, he would agree to any of Gu Yanzhi's conditions as long as they were not illegal or immoral.
He is a man of his word; he keeps his promises.
Although I don't know what he's up to, it would be good to use those four conditions as soon as possible, so that I can stay as far away from this ex-love rival as possible.
I ordered you a Deep Sea Pearl drink!
Bai Ye rolled her eyes: "Get to the point, I'm very busy, you know that!"
You better not just ask me out for drinks; we're not that close.
Gu Yanzhi smiled and kept everyone in suspense: "Drink first, then I'll tell you."
"Is Mr. Gu treating us?"
"certainly."
Since a wealthy man was treating, Bai Ye wouldn't stand on ceremony with him, especially since it was money from his ex-love rival, so spending it was even less of a burden.
"One drink isn't enough, bring another one!"
Gu Yanzhi's bangs slightly covered his eyes as he said helplessly, "Drink as many cups as you want, it's all you can eat!"
Where Bai Ye couldn't see, a sigh flashed in his eyes.
Brother, it's not that I want to hurt you, I just had no other choice!
Bai Ye found it strange that Gu Yanzhi agreed so readily.
Seeing him with his head down, could it be that he's worried about the money?
Surely not. This rich guy is a young master; how could he be so sentimental over a few drinks?
While Bai Ye was speculating, in a dimly lit corner of the bar, a woman stared at the scene with a sickly smile.
How can you escape?
The props and the location are all ready, all that's missing are the characters!
...
The Deep Sea Pearl arrived, and Bai Ye looked at the same cocktail as always, but a sense of foreboding lingered in his heart.
This bar has an inexplicable strangeness about it; how could it give off such a gloomy feeling?
Bai Ye frowned, intending to slip away quickly.
But judging from Gu Yanzhi's demeanor, it didn't seem like he was going to simply let him go if he didn't drink.
Why am I inexplicably afraid to drink it?
Damn, would he fail and then harm me?
We have no money, nothing, and nothing to scheme for.
He's not a policeman, so what am I afraid of?
Thinking of this, Bai Ye grabbed the cocktail and drank it all in one gulp.
The bitter taste traveled down his tongue and into Bai Ye's brain.
Why does this drink taste different from usual?
What the hell!
Seeing that Bai Ye had drunk the drink, Gu Yanzhi said with a guilty expression, "I'm sorry, Bai Ye."
Bai Ye was bewildered, not understanding what he was up to: "What do you mean?"
But the next moment, a wave of dizziness washed over me.
Bai Ye tried to stand up, but felt completely powerless.
There's something wrong with that drink!
Bai Ye's eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth, trying to stay awake.
He didn't understand why Gu Yanzhi would drug him.
He wanted to question him, but as he opened his mouth to make a sound, his mind became increasingly muddled.
As her consciousness gradually faded, in her final moments, Bai Ye felt herself fall into a soft embrace before completely losing consciousness.
Yao Yuyan sat beside Bai Ye, resting Bai Ye's head against her chest and stroking Bai Ye's unconscious face.
A silly smile lingered on his lips.
The two of them were the only ones in the bar at the moment; Gu Yanzhi had long since disappeared, and the surrounding customers had also left.
In the dimly lit hotel room, only the two of them were present.
...
A day ago, Yao Yuyan called Gu Yanzhi out.
Gu Yanzhi originally thought that Yao Yuyan hadn't let go yet and wanted to try to persuade her again.
But Yao Yuyan's target was not him at all.
Yao Yuyan said without room for argument, "Do me a favor."
"What kind of help?"
"..."
"What? You're going to do this?"
"That's why I need your help!"
Gu Yanzhi said confidently, "Bai Ye is my good brother, I would never do anything to betray him."
Yao Yuyan smiled, a hint of red flashing in her eyes: "Oh! Is that so?"
"If you don't want your life and your girlfriend's life to be disturbed, I suggest you do me the better."
"Otherwise, I can't guarantee that your girlfriend won't find out about those things you've been doing!"
"Ahem, I think everything can be discussed!"
"Then do as I say!"
"Yes!"
...
Gu Yanzhi sighed and glanced at the location of the bar in the distance.
Baiye, I'm so sorry!
But my brother's happiness for the rest of his life cannot be ruined by Yao Yuyan.
So I'm afraid I'll have to make you suffer a bit. I'll definitely treat you to a big meal another day!
Gu Yanzhi's expression was initially very bitter, but he burst out laughing the next second.
To be honest, he didn't care at all about what Yao Yuyan used to threaten him. Even if his girlfriend found out, it wouldn't matter. He had nothing to fear.
He deliberately feigned compliance to probe Yao Yuyan's purpose.
Upon discovering that Yao Yuyan harbored inexplicable feelings for Bai Ye, he was so happy he almost jumped for joy.
My silly little sister, who's been clueless since she was little, has finally come to her senses and stopped paying attention to him.
So, while he felt a little guilty about betraying Baiye, it wasn't much.
Most people felt that Bai Ye had struck it rich.
Who knows, Bai Ye might even have to thank me afterwards!
I do good deeds anonymously, please call me Gu Sanlang!
