Little Jiu wasn’t very knowledgeable about oral contraceptives but she knew had to do it under the radar .
There weren’t many patrons in the pharmacy, just a few scattered around the store and fortunately, they were all middle-aged women . It would be horrible if it had been younger girls and they had recognized her . Although she personally didn’t really mind but Manager Feng would definitely go crazy . It would be best if news of an esports player buying contraceptive didn’t spread .
Bo Jiu fastened her face mask in place and scanned the store but couldn’t locate the pills she was searching for . Such pills were probably restricted pills that couldn’t be placed on the racks . It seemed like she had to consult the pharmacist .
Bo Jiu sighed internally, heading towards the counter . “Hello, I need a pack of oral contraceptive . ”
The pharmacist behind the counter glanced up at Bo Jiu . “Which brand are you looking for?”
There were brands?
This was the first time she felt ignorant thus she decided to go for the most conservative reply . “The brand with the best result . ”
The pharmacist shook his head, muttering under his breath . “The youngsters these days…”
She wasn’t really that young but in her past life, she had never experienced such things before .
If it had been a better time, she would have wanted to bring the Almighty’s child back to the Fifth Avenue with her . But now… Bo Jiu tightened her grip over her phone . She had no choice .
“$25 . Cash or Alipay?” the pharmacist asked as he scanned the barcode .
As Bo Jiu didn’t think it was a good time to use her phone, she reached for her pocket . But she realized she didn’t have cash . In the end, she inhaled deeply . She could only use her phone . “WeChat pay?”
“Okay,” the pharmacist replied expressionless .
Bo Jiu swiped open her phone and received a message from the Almighty with three words . “Where are you?”
Guilt washed through her as she glanced at his profile picture . Her fingers hesitated slightly but she did not reply . Instead, she tapped on the payment app .
After the pharmacist scanned the barcode, she passed the box of pills over to Bo Jiu .
Bo Jiu glanced down, her silver hair falling forward as she reached for the medicine .
At that moment, a familiar, deep voice came from above her head . “Shouldn’t you be explaining your actions?”
Bo Jiu felt a chill run through her back . She had only one wish at that moment, for the Almighty to be as clueless as she was in a certain area .
The outreached arm stiffened and she hurriedly stuffed the pills into her pocket . She moved at a speed faster than when she gamed . After she had kept the pills, Bo Jiu glanced over to face the hostile cold stare .
She had never seen the Almighty wear such an expression . His gaze was so deep it was almost hollow .
Before she could say anything, he reached his hand out to pull the hand she had stuffed into her pocket . His voice was as calm as the sea before a thunderstorm . “What is this?”
Bo Jiu opened her mouth, her throat moving . “Medicine . ”
“What medicine?” There wasn’t a hint of emotion on his handsome face but the chilliness that radiated from him was enough to freeze the surroundings .
Bo Jiu didn’t reply as she didn’t know how to explain .
Qin Mo glanced over at the word ‘contraception’ . He wanted to tear her into bits and swallow her whole . That way, she would know who exactly she was . That way, she wouldn’t be here buying these pills . That way, she wouldn’t be thinking of leaving even at this moment .
Qin Mo lowered himself, grabbing the pills in her palms .
Bo Jiu watched as the box of pills started to disfigure in his palm . He used the kind of strength that could destroy someone . But there wasn’t a change in his expression . And that was how Bo Jiu knew he was really angry .
Bo Jiu glanced down to look at the box of pills . He used a tone she had never heard before . “I asked you to wait at your original spot but you never did . Before I sleep, I would wonder what that arrogant Little Jiu is doing and that thought would keep me awake till the next morning and that way, I would be less time away from her . It was the first time I had the desire to kiss someone and yet, I restrained myself . You must not understand how that feels, which is why you are buying such pills . ”
“I…” Bo Jiu wanted to say something but the Almighty didn’t seem willing to hear it . “Do you think I’m illiterate or that I don’t know this brand? If you don’t wish to be together, let’s break up . ”
With that, the Almighty turned, leaving her to face a distant and untouchable silhouette .
Bo Jiu had seen that silhouette many times before she had gotten close to him . But it had never been like this, leaving her breathless .
Unknowingly, it had started to rain .
When Bo Jiu came out, the Almighty was no longer in sight . He must have left in the Qin family’s car .
Bo Jiu toyed with her fingers, her gaze sinking . She stood under the rain, her hair dampening .
She stood upright but had never been as listless as she was right now . She was like a soaked little tiger, who didn’t know how to warm herself up .
Or perhaps, the person who could bring her warmth had left, which was the reason she didn’t seem bothered .
That was her state when Feng Yi had rushed over . He had never seen the devilish youngster in such a state before .
Had the two of them fought? That was Feng Yi’s first reaction .
Where was Boss Qin?
He glanced around in search of him . As he couldn’t find him, Feng Yi was sure they had indeed gotten into a fight .
He reached out to caress his temples . He felt an impending headache .
If even Little Spade was acting this way, he could only imagine how Young Master Qin was feeling . This was going to be a bad day . It seemed like the various department managers weren’t going to have a good time .
But what could have caused a quarrel of this extent?
With Young Master Qin’s personality, even if he was angry, he would punish Little Spade in private . How could he have just left him here?
Feng Yi frowned . He brought Bo Jiu to the car since she was getting soaked from the rain . Then he tried to communicate with her . “Wasn’t everything alright just a moment ago? How did buying medicine end up like that?”
Bo Jiu replied with a “Mmh . ” She glanced out of the window, water droplets trailing down the ends of her silver hair but she didn’t seem to care . She turned her head to the side, not letting anyone see her expression .
All she could think about was his last words . “If you don’t want to be together, let’s break up . ”
Leaving was only a matter of time . Even if she was unwilling, there wasn’t any other option .
She had overestimated her tolerance because just a sentence could affect her so much .
If she waited until the Almighty found out about her identity, she probably couldn’t tolerate the reaction she was going to be faced with .
Bo Jiu reached out to comb her fringe down . When her phone started to ring again, her voice was slightly raspy .
It was a call from the school, her dorm application was ready and the school wanted her to send her luggage over . She would have to follow the normal protocol even if she still participated in the National League .
In reality, Bo Jiu wasn’t in the mood to hear anything but it was best to be kept occupied so that her thoughts could be diverted .
If she stayed in school, it wouldn’t be that abrupt when she left .
Bo Jiu kept prolonging the process . She knew the sudden disappearance of someone would never be great for anyone . But if everyone knew that a wanted criminal had been amongst them, He Honghua would definitely be shocked and she didn’t wish to see that .
This time, she had used her identity, meaning there were people who knew she was back . That included those that wanted her dead . If her identity was exposed, He Honghua might be in danger . Hence, she had to leave .
Just like back then when she had to leave her pet regardless of how unwilling she had been .
Bo Jiu could still remember that night, after climbing the wall, she had used a huge amount of strength to enter his room . In order to prevent an ambush from her in the middle of the night, he would keep plants around on his balcony .
At that time, she had completely disregarded the plants . After she had entered his room and seen his sleeping figure, she had stepped forward to plant a kiss on his face .
Kidnapping him had crossed her mind since she had enough strength . But Bo Jiu had known that her pet wouldn’t have wanted to go with her because he had things he wanted to do and his own family members . It would be a bore to watch her type every day .
Besides, he would be faced with danger .
Her father had once mentioned that the Young Master of the Hacker World wasn’t suited to have friends…
It was still raining . The raindrops were trickling down the car window .
The Land Rover had great water protection, especially those used by the army . The sound of raindrops hitting the car could barely be heard .
But because of that, the driver didn’t dare to utter a word . Ever since his young master boarded the car, he hadn’t said a word .
Young Master had never liked rainy days and wouldn’t go out during such weather . This time, he probably made the exception because of Young Master Jiu .
But where was Young Master Jiu?
The driver didn’t ask aloud because of the chilliness that erupted from his young master .
Qin Mo didn’t feel much . Ever since the beginning, his hands hadn’t loosened because of the box of pills within his palm .
The box was so crushed up, the words could barely be read . But Qin Mo’s fingers remained firm as ever, not a hint of softening .
If it hadn’t been for the box of pills, perhaps he could tell himself that he meant something to her .
Even though she carried so many secrets, in front of him, she was sincere and wasn’t against towards their relationship .
But now, he was the only one that wanted to be with her . He was practically forcing her .
In her heart, perhaps, he wasn’t that different .
He had misunderstood, he had assumed they were special to each other .
It was like he had taken a step confidently only to realize there wasn’t a step in front . He crashed and smashed his head, blood pouring out . The overwhelming pain was clouding his senses .
Qin Mo released his left hand and glanced out of the car window .
When the car entered the military courtyard, he was still in the same position as before .
Movie Queen An had just finished shopping with He Honghua and had wanted to have a chat with Jiu, she hadn’t expected him to not be there when she opened the car door .
This?
Movie Queen An raised her brows and studied her son’s face .
Qin Mo walked out of the car, he didn’t care if rain was splattering onto him as he left a faint line . “I’m tired, I’ll head up now . ”
The smart Movie Queen An instantly detected a problem and had wanted to probe but on second thought, she concluded that a parent shouldn’t be meddling in her son’s relationship .
After entering his room, Qin Mo acted as though nothing had happened . He unbuttoned his shirt and tossed his shirt aside before entering the shower .
He stood under the shower, allowing the water to smash down his head, to clear his mind .
He was indeed much clearer than before, at least he knew how a certain someone really felt .
On deeper thought, there wasn’t anything good about her . She never listened to him and had never really cared about him .
When did he have to relegate to such a state?
Qin Mo chuckled, but the laughter didn’t reach his eyes .
The chilliness that radiated from him didn’t seem to be lessening, instead, it thickened after he left the shower .
He sat there and watched the opened laptop, his neck stretching back . “Enough . ” Indeed, it was enough .
Even though that was what he said, after he had gone down, Movie Queen An noticed the difference in her son .
He kept glancing at his phone as though he was waiting for something . But every time he saw the screen, his gaze dimmed . When there was finally a message, it was from his secretary .
“I’m going to the office . ”
Qin Mo stood up . This was the first time he wanted to be kept busy .
As time trickled by, in No . 1 Middle School dormitory, as the last student to register, the dorm caretaker wasn’t very pleased but she didn’t make things difficult for Bo Jiu .
The news of her entering the school dorm spread across the entire school almost instantly . Of course, there was a crowd waiting .
Those that stayed in the dorm paused to sweep her a glance .
Since having the school hunk stay here wasn’t something they could be happy about . Moreover, their school hunk was an esports celebrity which was more reason for the girls to be attracted .
There wasn’t any more hope for them .
But some had a more positive view . With Bo Jiu’s arrival, some things were going to be much easier, for instance, $5 for a photo of the school hunk .
No one knew that Bo Jiu chose to move on this day entirely because she wanted to keep herself busy .
