Bu Yi’s eyes lit up . “Let’s go and eat smelly tofu?”
“Uh… Alright, just nice, I also wanted to say that, hahahahaha…” Lin Jie’s lips twitched and revealed an awkward smile .
As the Chinese idiom said, ‘Before the flowers and under the moon is the ideal setting for a couple in love and with a beauty as a company . ’ It was originally an extremely beautiful scene, a man and woman alone together late in the night when no one else was around, the two of them walking within the beautiful and serene park . Under the moonlight, they would look at each other and smile . Even if there was nothing between them before, it would definitely leave a favorable impression of one to the other or even directly confirm their couple relationship or something…
However, at this moment, Lin Jie’s face was quite bitter as he was unlucky . What atmosphere was it in the park? What atmosphere was this?
Looking at the stall owner wearing a white vest with his head full of sweat, frequently digging out some sauce to put it on the blackish smelly tofu, and then asking with a smile, “How many portions do you want young lady? Is it smelly enough? Do you want it to be smellier?” The smelly tofu stall, which reeked of bad smell, befouling the atmosphere, was known to be the best smelly tofu stall of the University of Arts and Sciences . F*ck any ideal setting for a couple in love! Even if it was a couple of gays who came, they would also become straight!
“No-no need to be too smelly…” Bu Yi’s face was red from embarrassment since she was a girl and a girl that was normal in all aspects . She was unlike Qiu Yuan, who could just sit down on the stool with a thud and then slam the table while shouting to the owner and ordering two portions of the smelliest tofu . Although she liked to eat it, she did not have the face to do so .
The owner chuckled and said happily, “Young lady, it must be the first time you’re here at the University of Arts and Sciences, right? My smelly tofu is famous far and wide, many youngsters from different universities rush here to eat it . I say, young lad, if your girlfriend likes to eat this, then you should buy more and go give it to her, girls all feel embarrassed eating it . ”
Lin Jie heard what the owner said . ‘This owner is good! Not bad, not bad, I’ll come to patronize his business more . ’
However, Bu Yi just smiled and said, “I’m not his girlfriend, I was just attracted by the fame of your stall . ”
“Oh?” The owner’s eyes lit up, and he said generously, “Young lady, it’s not simple for you to have come here once, it’s quite late already, so if today’s tofu can’t be sold, it will have to be thrown away tomorrow, or else it will not be fresh anymore . Come, Uncle will give you a 30% discount, eat more!”
Lin Jie hurriedly paid the money and carried the three big portions of smelly tofu, as well as two more cups of tea, to the table . He smiled and said, “Come, let’s eat!”
Bu Yi carefully used her chopsticks to pick up one piece of tofu and placed it beside her rosy lips, blowing it lightly . She bit half of it, and her eyes curved into a crescent moon . She praised, “It’s really very delicious!”
Lin Jie smiled . He started to chow down on the tofu without restrain and did not even mind how he looked when eating . He finished one with just a bite and a small plate in two mouthfuls . He ate as if he was a glutton .

Bu Yi felt that Lin Jie was much calmer, so she changed to a straight face and said, “Fu Sheng, everyone is very worried about you . You suddenly went offline, so we were all at a loss of what to do . ”
Lin Jie’s hands stopped moving, and he reluctantly shook his head . “I was just a little confused back then, now I’m fine, and I’ll go online later . ”
“Hehe, I knew you would not be defeated by such a small matter,” said Bu Yi seriously . Suddenly she turned her eyeballs and whispered, “Baili Changcheng said he wanted to come to find you, do you want to go fetch him?”
At that moment, Lin Jie’s phone just nicely rang .
Baili Changcheng: ‘Brother, don’t worry, it’s only a dungeon . Where are you? I specially brought a beauty, rumors say that she admires you! Hahahahaha . ’
Lin Jie raised his brows . ‘F*ck, forget it if you’re coming already, but bringing a woman along too? Even if you brought her along, you picked the darn perfect time when Bu Yi is here, I’ll be doomed if Bu Yi sees her!’
Lin Jie made a prompt decision to turn off his phone! He then stuffed his phone into his pocket .
“What happened?” asked Bu Yi .
“My phone is out of battery . ”
“No problem, I brought a power bank, if you want to use it…”
“I did not bring a charger cable . ”
“I have the universal charger cable . ”
Lin Jie stared at her . “My-my charging interface is broken!”

Bu Yi looked doubtful . She stared at Lin Jie’s pocket and asked meekly, “Fu Sheng… Weren’t phones that needed charging interface already eliminated since 50 years ago?”
Lin Jie . “…”
Indeed, the phones used now all used light energy to charge, so the so-called power bank was also just a solar panel . Thus, Lin Jie’s reason was a little nonsensical .
“Cough, cough, mine is an antique and is very valuable . Nokia, have you heard of it? You can use it to call and as a brick too . Safety first, right?” Lin Jie bullsh*ted his way through and quickly changed the topic . “It’s so late already, wouldn’t your school have already closed doors?”
Bu Yi was still doubtful of Lin Jie’s nonsense, but she cooperatively changed the topic . “Not yet, the Academy of Arts closes doors at 12, there’s still 20 minutes . ”
“Then… I’ll send you back . ” Lin Jie was disappointed in his heart .
This script wasn’t right! Shouldn’t it be the plot where the male and the female student went dating in a romantic place until late at night, then the school closed doors, which would result in them sharing a room? Naturally, the guy would righteously say that he would not cross the line, gaining the favor of the girl . Then, finally, they’d become a couple and meet each others’ parents?
Firstly, they had miraculously come to the smelly tofu stall, where they had gulped down their food crazily . Next, the school actually closed doors so late, what do you want those guys that couldn’t calculate the time correctly do?
Without any other choice, Lin Jie could only send Bu Yi back .
There was no improvement in the relationship between them at all .
After sending a message to Zheng Ziliang for him to enter Lin Jie’s information into Zheng Ziliang’s Rolls-Royce remotely, Lin Jie brought Bu Yi to the car park .
“After you go back, tell them not to worry and just say that it was because my stomach hurt, ” said Lin Jie . “After I go online, I’ll arrange the plan for what’s next and prepare for the next dungeon!”
Bu Yi nodded . “Got it!”
“Lin Jie…”
A coy moan could be heard from the distance . Beside a quaint Land Rover was a girl wearing a long white dress and had long black and silky shoulder-length hair . The moon very cooperatively allowed the moonlight to shine on the face of the girl .
It was actually Wei Lu!
After she had failed in hyping up the price of the Middle-Grade Natural Recovery Potion, her standing had hit rock bottom, where she was even directly ordered around by Baili Xuanyuan to do odd jobs until she could repay all her debt . How could Wei Lu endure such torture? Thus, Baili Changcheng had caught her attention, and she had secretly handed over part of Baili Xuanyuan’s information in exchange for freedom . Moreover, she had found out the number of a person named “Brother Fu Sheng” from the negotiations and that number… was very similar to a certain someone!
In Wei Lu’s mind, the hotheaded high school student, who had taken the fall for cheating in her stead, and the invincible person, who was striving to be the top in The New Age, their figures gradually combined to become one! Lin Jie, who was thrown away like trash by her, was it possible that he was… Codename Lone Wolf?
When she saw Lin Jie again, Wei Lu could confirm that it was him! Not because of Lin Jie’s temperament, but because of that girl! The sixth sense between women was always that strong; in the game, beside the Codename Lone Wolf always stood Bu Yi .
Time flew, everything might seem the same, but everything had already changed .
Wei Lu’s appearance was exactly the same when Lin Jie had first seen her, that long white dress and beautiful black hair . The only difference was the contrast in their statuses .
“Lin Jie…” Wei Lu held on tightly to Lin Jie’s hand, and her tears flowed out like falling rain . “I have finally found you . Please forgive me, please forgive me… I was forced to leave you back then . You also know how hard it is being a high schooler, if I did not leave you, that person would most probably have crippled you . ”
Lin Jie and Bu Yi were stunned at the same time .
“Remember Liu Kai? He was the head of thugs in our school . After that day, he had threatened me that if I didn’t leave you, it would be over for you! That’s why I…” Wei Lu said in a tearful voice, “I have always liked you all these years, but I had always been forced by Liu Kai . So now, until I had the entered Baili company, and was finally freed from him, I could come and find you, boohoo…”
When Bu Yi saw Wei Lu holding Lin Jie’s hand, a strange emotion surged from her heart . Although she rarely fought alongside Fu Sheng, when he transformed to Lone Wolf, he was always active on all kinds of forums, pictures, and posts… He was bloodthirsty, powerful, and merciless . He never showed fear on his face even when facing hundreds and thousands of people . Bu Yi had also been used to looking through posts about this “teammate” of hers on a daily basis .
Meanwhile, now, in her impression, that person, who was always cold, actually showed an astonished expression .
Bu Yi took a deep breath and smiled as she said to Lin Jie, “According to the script, the plot next would be that the male lead shows a surge in empathy towards the female supporting lead, which results in the male lead getting into trouble and be cheated of everything before finally hitting rock bottom . Then, the female lead will save him and start afresh . ”
Wei Lu’s eyes turned cold and hugged onto Lin Jie’s hand . She shouted, “Who are you? I’m speaking to him, it’s none of your business!”
“Let go!” Lin Jie wanted to pull his hand out as if he had been electrocuted . However, who expected that Wei Lu refused to let go no matter what and firmly grabbed onto Lin Jie’s hand! He was her straw to clutch at, how could she let go?
“Who am I? You can treat me as a brain impaired girl that only knows how to watch Korean dramas . ” Bu Yi’s fist was clenched tightly, her eyes looked at Lin Jie as she said seriously, “In Korean dramas, these plots are already so common, it’s cliche! What first love breakups are all for your sake, what all she did is for your safety… In the end, it’s just that she thinks you’re not worthy of her!”
Lin Jie took a deep breath, and his body gradually calmed down . He slowly stretched his hand towards Wei Lu’s fingers that were grabbing him tightly . He said faintly, “Let go . ”
“No, I’m not letting go! Lin Jie, you should believe me! Believe me! You like me, right? As long as you want, I can give you anything…”
Kacha—
Wei Lu’s finger drooped down as if it had lost its support .
“Let go,” said Lin Jie calmly .
This time, Wei Lu did not dare to persist, she could feel that if she continued, then most likely, all her fingers would be broken .
“There is no one that is an idiot, not you and not me,” said Lin Jie calmly . “If a person is willing to be deceived by you, it is because he loves you so much that he does not have the heart to expose you . But what a pity, too many people think that this is because others’ IQ has a problem, who in the world would like idiots? So this group of people would be thrown away, again and again like trash!
“For example you, did you know how important you were to me? I really thought that after losing you, there was no need for me to continue living anymore, but then I gradually understood afterward that with you or without you, it was all the same .
“And now, to me, you’re also just a pile of T-R-S-H!”
