Chapter 289 Hiding in the Corner



Even with bright sunshine, sometimes the oppressive atmosphere can feel suffocating.

Seemingly sensing this discomfort, Lin Qianmo frowned slightly and opened her eyes: it was the first time she had felt palpitations upon waking up in the morning...

Lin Qianmo glanced at the time on her watch, paused for a moment, and suddenly stood up. "Oh no, if I don't hurry..."

Noticing Lin Qianmo's movements, Gu Liyan opened his eyes and looked at her as she was about to leave, asking, "Where are you going?"

Lin Qianmo said while putting on her coat, "After all, it's a part-time job, how can I waste my time here? I have to go back and train those kids!"

Gu Liyan looked at Lin Qianmo's childish face and said, "Aren't you a little kid too? Why are you teaching others?"

"Who said that! I'm 22 already!" Lin Qianmo proudly raised her chin. "I look young, don't I!"

"oh!"

Looking at that face that had matured considerably, Gu Liyan felt a pang of nostalgia for the Lin Qianmo of the past... innocent, romantic, and carefree—that was what he longed for.

"Is there anything else?" Lin Qianmo asked Gu Liyan with a puzzled look.

“I…” Gu Liyan thought for a moment and shook his head: Since the past was beautiful, let’s not disturb the beauty we have now!

"It's alright, you can go now."

Lin Qianmo glanced at Gu Liyan and said softly, "I have extraordinary senses, and sometimes I even have a sixth sense. The moment I saw you, I knew you were no ordinary person. And you also recognize me and know my real name. So let's not reveal this secret and just know that we have no ill intentions towards each other!"

No, Lin Qianmo turned and left.

Gu Liyan couldn't help but smile bitterly: So she also didn't want to have anything to do with me!

—Am I being rejected?

Gu Liyan lowered his head, looking at An Qianbai sleeping beside him, and murmured to himself:

"On this chessboard of heaven and earth, there are never any real winners or real losers. It's just that the game is too big and there are too many people involved. None of us can be the players."

Lu Rui walked out of the room and, upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, said, "My lord, you are right. All living beings are merely pawns, and only Heaven and Earth hold the pieces!"

Gu Liyan looked up at Lu Rui and said, "It's a pity you were born into this game; you're already caught in it!"

Lu Rui nodded and smiled wryly without saying anything more, then yawned, revealing dark circles under his eyes.

"Didn't you sleep well last night?" Gu Liyan asked, looking at his tired face.

"Sleeping in my grandma's bed, I thought of many people and many things, and I couldn't fall asleep." Lu Rui shrugged helplessly. "Luckily, I was so tired that I slept for a few hours."

"You still have death energy surrounding you, so try to avoid places where dead people have been," Gu Liyan reminded him.

Lu Rui said nonchalantly, "Everyone has to die eventually, so what do I have to fear?"

Gu Liyan shook his head. "You're wrong. Your life may be yours now, but in the future, it will belong to your wife, children, and elderly parents. You should live for them!"

Upon hearing Gu Liyan's words, Lu Rui suddenly realized and immediately said, "Thank you for reminding me, sir. I..."

Gu Liyan waved his hand to interrupt him, "I'm just giving you a warning as a friend, there's no need for such formality. Besides, if you call me 'sir,' then there will be villains around us. So, from now on, Brother Lu, just call me Brother Mo Li!"

Hearing Gu Liyan's words, Lu Rui laughed heartily, "Hahaha, after 25 years of life, I, Lu Rui, have finally found a true friend who understands me, guides me, and knows me!"

Seeing the tears welling up in Lu Rui's eyes, Gu Liyan smiled slightly and said nothing.

Who knows that every grain of rice on the plate is the result of hard work?

Who knew the loneliness in my heart, every day I am alone.

In Lu Rui's life, no one was willing to enter his inner world, so in his 25 years of life, he had not a single friend! Perhaps this is laughable, tragic, and even pitiful. But for a wise person, what kind of confidant can someone who only wishes to remain an outsider have?

——

The school bell had rung for three minutes, but the instructor still hadn't arrived, making everyone impatient.

"I thought the management system of higher education institutions was strict, but I didn't expect the instructor to be late! I'll have to teach him a lesson later!" said Hu Yingying, a carefree blue-haired girl.

"We can all go and report this after class!" said Bai Zhi, a rich girl who was patting herself in powder to make her skin look whiter.

Cang Yue, standing at the very front of the crowd, stood ramrod straight, her heroic and spirited appearance completely different from the "varied" group of students behind her.

Seeing Cang Yue's serious demeanor, Hu Yingying pouted and muttered, "What's she pretending for? She looks like she's begging for praise!"

Upon hearing her words, Cang Yue glared at her, and Hu Yingying was startled by her gaze, quickly shutting her mouth.

It's no wonder Cang Yue has such sharp eyes; she's just fuming with nowhere to vent her anger. She's realized that anything related to that Lin Qianmo is never good!

Having been tricked by Lin Qianmo, she not only ranked last in her entrance exam, but the instructor also gave her a score of "0"!

She gave a "0" out of 100!

Isn't this revenge? If it weren't for her good grades, she would have been expelled from school long ago! If she had been expelled, she wouldn't have the face to go back home!

Take a deep breath: The weather is so sunny, yet I'm so irritable. This isn't good, not good at all!

Click—

Cang Yue shuddered!

very good!

The weather turned bad; a thunderbolt struck!

Then a torrential downpour began, and everyone rushed to the eaves for shelter. Cang Yue thought for a moment but decided to stay put.

No one knows what the instructors are thinking during the first class. Just like in TV dramas, they usually try to torture you, deduct your credits to a negative number, and wish they could make you kneel down and cry!
