Bai You straightened his hair, sorted out all his emotions, then looked at Zhou Yan and said with a smile: "Why...are you here?"
The party had ended two hours ago. The school leaders and the old man had probably left the school and gone out to party. Was his sudden appearance here an accident or intentional?
The more she thought about it, the more terrifying it became. Bai You didn't want to become a sensitive and suspicious person, but the feeling this man gave her was really strange. It felt like he was possessed by a poisonous snake, and his whole body was filled with a gloomy and cold aura.
Everything he did was probably the result of careful consideration, so why did he approach her?
When Zhou Yan heard Bai You's words, he unexpectedly stopped smiling and sighed deeply. His voice was inexplicably bitter and self-deprecating, sounding a bit pitiful.
"If I tell you I'm looking for you, would you believe me?"
Bai You really wanted to force a smile for him, but she found that she didn't have the ability to do so and couldn't even fake a smile.
She lowered her eyes, not looking him in the eye, and smiled to change the subject, "Stop messing around, I...what do you want from me?"
Zhou Yan just looked at Bai You silently without saying a word. With his eyes lowered, Bai You was not sure what his expression was like. But the gaze that fell on his head was scorching and unbearable. Bai You had never felt so miserable before.
After a long moment, Zhou Yan finally spoke. Compared to before, his voice was more solemn and sincere. "I'm not joking, and I'm not messing around anymore. I'm serious. I was really looking for you. I saw you in the auditorium. I originally wanted to look for you after the meeting, but something delayed me. Your school is quite big, so it took me an hour to find you."
Bai You's first reaction was not to be moved or surprised, but to the meaning revealed in the man's words. According to the schedule, she had a full class schedule this afternoon. At this time, she should be sitting in the classroom, but he knew very well that she did not go to class, nor did she go anywhere else. He searched for her in the school for an hour.
Among the four people in their dormitory, who was bribed by him?
Bai You finally raised his head, looked him straight in the eyes, and asked without a smile: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Bai You's cold and distant attitude seemed to hurt him. A trace of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and he said bitterly: "We are still friends, aren't we? It's only been a month since we last met, how come we have become so estranged?"
Bai You didn't say anything, just remained silent.
Friends? To be friends with him, she'd probably need to prepare a few more organs. The Zhou family was guilty of all sorts of crimes, and how many illegal and criminal acts they had committed behind the scenes was still unknown. In such eyes, there was no emotion, only exploitation.
Bai You didn't want to really make him suspicious of her, so she adjusted her mood, then smiled casually and said casually: "There's nothing I can do. After getting married, I have to be careful when meeting friends. There's a jealous person at home, and I'm helpless."
Bai You said this to remind him indirectly that she was already married and her husband was Lu Yunxiao, so no matter what he wanted, he had to think carefully. Secondly, she wanted to tell him that she was distancing herself from him not because of anything else, but simply because Lu Yunxiao didn't like her getting too close to other men.
