Chapter 983: 983
Qin Mo studied the youngster, her hair was still drenched from the shower, the surprise from his sudden appearance clear in her face . Her gaze was as bright and clear as always; it was as though she had no idea what he was referring to .

Qin Mo took another step forward .
The guy who fell from the stairs retracted his arm hurriedly, burrowing into his blanket . In this hot summer day, it was indeed a feat to be hidden under his thick woolen blanket .
Bo Jiu could sense his overwhelming aura with every step he took .
She wondered if her roommates would believe if she told them that the Almighty had come out of boredom .
“All of you, get out . ” These were his first words, his voice cold and emotionless .
They were short five words but it sent a chill down their back . They glanced at each other before scrambling to the safe zone with their belongings . It was beside Jiang Zuo, who had an enigmatic smile on his face .
“Seems like we are interrupting . ” Jiang Zuo placed his head on someone’s shoulder as he spoke . “Let’s have a smoking break outside . ”
The guy nodded . There weren’t many options for them since they couldn’t stand in Young Master Qin’s way . Besides, Young Master Qin seemed like he was out for vengeance . They weren’t being unfaithful and didn’t have thoughts of betraying their boss . But even if they took action, it would have been futile .
“Wait a minute . ” Qin Mo turned over and glanced at the three of them . “He has been in the room and hadn’t left?”
“Huh?”

Bo Jiu cursed internally when she heard that confused exclamation .
Fortunately, the bespectacled one had a bit more sense . He pushed his spectacles further up his nose bridge before replying firmly, “No, he hadn’t gone out . Boss briefly showed his face in class before coming back with his instant noodles . ”
With that, Bo Jiu broke into a light smile . That was the perfect excuse . Indeed, those that studied were better liars . He was indeed worthy to be known as the odd intellectual of their dorm room .
Qin Mo glanced at the bespectacled guy before turning towards the other two . Their faltering glances made him smirk . “Is that so .
“Yes, Almighty Qin, you should know, the revision at night isn’t something you can continue for long,” the thorn-headed one replied after regaining his composure .
Based on Bo Jiu’s understanding of the Almighty, he hadn’t believed them at all . Fortunately, she wasn’t thrown under the bus by burdensome teammates .
“Alright . ” Jiang Zuo reached out to close the door, leaving a meaningful last line . “Have a good talk, the duration doesn’t matter, just keep it down a little . I’ll be watching the door . ”
Bo Jiu watched him as he shut the door, his expression looking very much like a pimp .
After the door was shut, the three roommates heaved a sigh of relief .
Their hearts were racing when Young Master Qin questioned them . But their boss was amazing; how did he know what Young Master Qin was going to ask them?

Indeed, their acting was world-class .
After their self-appreciation, they couldn’t help the curiosity and thus turned towards Jiang Zuo . “Young Master Jiang, what’s wrong with Young Master Qin and our boss? Are they having a rocky period?”
Jiang Zuo leaned against the door, lit a cigarette, and held it between two fingers . He smiled . “How can it be a rocky period? They have something to discuss regarding the competition tomorrow, so we shouldn’t be disturbing them . ”
As for how their discussion would go, only Qin Mo would know . Honestly, Jiang Zuo rarely saw Qin Mo in such a state, radiating a coldness from within . Hopefully, it wasn’t anything serious .
Jiang Zuo tapped the cigarette in his hands as he glanced at the messy hallway . He felt a need to remind Qin Mo to hurry . Any longer in such an environment would leave him with a murky odor .
Right at this moment, Qin Mo was too preoccupied to read his messages . He ignored the vibrating phone, a hand stuffed into his pocket as he stood in front of Bo Jiu . Qin Mo glanced down at her, his expression light as he studied her . But his gaze was so intense she could feel a chill run down her spine .
Bo Jiu blinked .
Qin Mo reached out to touch the bowl of noodles . It was piping hot, which meant there was indeed water inside .
Bo Jiu glanced over . She watched as the slender hands tested the temperature . Qin Mo’s nails were short and neat but that didn’t mean they were harmless . Instead his actions meant that he was indeed suspicious .
“419 . Did you move in because of the room number?” he asked coldly .

Bo Jiu stiffened . “I didn’t pay attention to the number . ”
“Is that so?” Qin Mo watched her expression .
Bo Jiu exposed her two front teeth, breaking into a faint smile . “I’m too righteous to have such thoughts . ”
“That includes watching all those half-naked guys walking around . ” Qin Mo’s gaze dimmed .
At this moment, Bo Jiu felt a need to save herself . She caressed the bridge of her nose . “After I’ve seen you, it’s difficult to take an interest in those ribs . ”
Qin Mo paused . “Behave yourself . ”
“I am behaving . ” Bo Jiu broke into another laugh . “Brother Mo, you aren’t angry at me anymore . ”
Qin Mo eyed her, his gaze so deep she could barely catch the emotion brewing inside . “I can stop being angry but you have to sing me a song . ”
Bo Jiu smiled . “Alright, Brother Mo, what song do you want to hear?”
“An Ordinary Road,” he replied softly .
But that name made her stiffen slightly . “Alright, let me search for the lyrics . ”
Just as she lowered her head to search for the lyrics, Qin Mo positioned both hands by her sides, lowering himself towards her . There was barely any space between them . They were so close their faces could touch .
Fortunately, Jiang Zuo had chased the others out . If they had seen them in this position, it would have been hard not to think otherwise .
Bo Jiu felt her heart clench, it was the tactic the Almighty used specifically to interrogate her .
Qin Mo studied her face, his lips curving into a smile that carried a devilish air rarely seen on him . “Jiu, do you know a person’s heartbeat increases when they are lying?”
Bo Jiu glanced up, her face serious . “I don’t know about lying but with Brother Mo so close to me, it would be hard for my heart not to race . ”
“Should I hold your chest when I question you?” Qin Mo chuckled, looking warm and gentle but behind that mask, there wasn’t a hint of warmth because that laughter didn’t reach his eyes .
The Almighty’s gaze moved from her face up towards the roots of her hair . He reached out his left hand, trailing under her shirt, pulling her entire top upwards as he moved towards her tenderness .
Bo Jiu froze .
Just then, the Almighty asked casually, his breathe slashing onto her lips . “Why did you wash your hair at this hour?”
