Chapter 3,
“Mister, Jiang Nan University, hurry!”
As everyone was engrossed in the music, Lin Hai grabbed Liu Xin Yue’s hand and ran straight out of the bar and into a taxi .
After boarding the taxi, Liu Xin Yue felt uncomfortable and unclasped her hand from Lin Hai’s .
“I’m sorry for pretending to be your boyfriend and holding your hand . ” Lin Hai laughed awkwardly and reluctantly let go of her soft hands .
[Fuck, it was so smooth and soft . ]
“It’s okay . ” Liu Xin Yue blushed . “Thank you for helping me just now . ”
“You’re welcome, helping others is what this generation ought to do!” Lin Hai mimicked the words of a martial arts movie character, not forgetting to strike a pose in the cramped taxi .
Liu Xin Yue laughed when she saw Lin Hai’s funny pose .
[Beautiful…] Lin Hai couldn’t help but stare .
“Oh yeah, you sang really well just now . It was so emotional that it made me cry . ”
“Yeah, I thought it was really good too, I was by moved myself . ” Lin Hai agreed wholeheartedly .
“Wow, your skin is really thick . I’ve never met anyone who would praise themselves like that . ”
After getting out of the taxi, Liu Xin Yue looked at Lin Hai weirdly .
“Wait, how did you know that I go to Jiang Nan University?”
“Because I can read minds . ” Lin Hai answered seriously .
“Yeah right . Like I’ll believe that . ” Liu Xin Yue’s lip’s twitched; she was itching to smile . The more they talked, the more she realized that Lin Hai could never be serious .
Deep in thought, Liu Xin Yue suddenly asked, “You’re a student at Jiang Nan University too? So, you’ve already recognized me just now?”
“Guess you’re not dumb after all . ”
“Wait, but why don’t I recognize you at all?” Liu Xin Yue was puzzled .
[Crap, was he really that invisible?] Lin Hai frowned .
He had already spent 3 years in university . Even if she didn’t recognize him initially, after meeting a few times he should have at least looked somewhat familiar .
“Oh yeah, why did you start singing in bars anyways?” Lin Hai finally asked the question that has been plaguing his mind the whole night .
Liu Xin Yue’s face fell and her mood dropped .
“Thanks for today, I should go . ”
“Uhh…I’ll walk you . ” Lin Hai mentally scolded himself for prying .
After sending Liu Xin Yue home, Lin Hai received a call from Wang Peng, who sounded very worried .
“Lin Hai, where are you? Don’t leave, baldie is looking everywhere for you . ”
“Don’t worry, I’m with Liu Xin Yue and we’ve already reached school . ” Lin Hai’s heart was warm .
“Shit, that was fast!” Wang Peng sighed in relief .
“I must say, you were pretty awesome . I can’t believe you saved a damsel in distress and even left baldie standing there in shock . How did Liu Xin Yue repay you? Oh yeah, you didn’t really sing much whenever we went to karaoke . I didn’t expect you to sing so well, I even started to cry…”
Lin Hai hung up immediately, otherwise Wang Peng would not stop talking .
Lying in bed, Lin Hai recalled the day’s events and thought that everything felt like a dream .
The effect of exceeded Lin Hai’s expectations and helped to save both Liu Xin Yue and him .
At that moment, Lin Hai decided that the silly WeChat group was undoubtedly made up of deities .
With that thought, Lin Hai quickly picked up his phone and opened WeChat .

The High Heaven Trading Circle and Yu Tu were still there .
[I really wasn’t dreaming!]
Lin Hai felt a wave of excitement . His life was definitely going to change .
Soon after, Wang Peng and his friends arrived . Naturally, they talked about what happened that night and continued chatting past midnight .
The next day .
“Eh?” Upon walking into class, Lin Hai noticed that Wang Ting was engrossed in playing with her new tablet .
Sitting beside her was a boy sporting various luxury brands, with one hand straying dangerously up her thigh .
Lin Hai recognized the boy . He was Zhao Lei, from the class next door . Rumour has it that his family runs a big company and is very rich; must be how Zhao Lei affords to drive his BMW to school every day .
Lin Hai couldn’t believe that Wang Ting had already found herself a new guy, having only broken up with him for a day .
“Hey, Ting Ting, isn’t that your boyfriend?” Zhao Lei mocked as Lin Hai walked into the room .
“Ex-boyfriend . He was so poor, who would even like him? I was just playing with him; dumped him yesterday . Right now, you’re the only person in my heart . ” Wang Ting said as she rubbed Zhao Lei’s bicep .
“Haha, you’re right . Look at all his cheap clothes . Even a swine wouldn’t like him . ”
“You’re right, swine only like you . ” Lin Hai replied as he found a place to sit .
“Of course…” Zhao Lei nodded arrogantly before ending his sentence abruptly .
“HAHAHA” The students in the classroom roared with laughter .
Wang Ting’s face turned the color of pig’s liver — red .
At this moment, the teacher walked in and everyone quietened down .
Lin Hai wasn’t very interested in this class . He opened WeChat and saw that High Heaven Trading Circle was active again .

Hong Hai Er: Everyone, please vote for me while you’re at it . (Wide-eyed emoji)
“Hahaha, turns out these deities are like regular humans too . ”
Just then, Lin Hai felt like he could relate to these seemingly unapproachable and unrelatable gods .
“Ahem…” Lord Lao Zi couldn’t watch any longer .
Lord Lao Zi: Everyone please note, this is a transaction group . Chatting is allowed but please refrain from posting advertisements, asking for likes and garnering votes .

…
Various advertisements were sent and Lord Lao Zi’s words were lost in a sea of messages .
Everyone ignored him .
“Haha, interesting . ” Lin Hai decided to tag @Lord Lao Zi .
Xiao Hutu Xian: @Lord Lao Zi, if you can solve a problem using a red packet, then it’s not a problem at all . (speak no evil monkey emoji)
Lord Lao Zi: @Xiao Hutu Xian, (3 thumbs up emojis)
“What the shit is this?” Lin Hai realized his name in the group chat was not Lin Hai, but Small Confused Fairy instead .
Ding Dong!
Suddenly, a big red packet appeared on his screen .
Lin Hai clicked on it swiftly .
“You have redeemed Lord Lao Zi’s red packet . ”
He got it!
