Chapter 493
"Don't you realize how impolite it is to comment on a lady so openly?"
Bai Yu rubbed her throbbing temples hard. What was she doing? Why was she saying such nonsensical things to Wu Liang?
Mo Qianhuan said that this guy was a very gentle, cheerful and stylish man, so why couldn't she see any of those qualities in Wu Liang?
Is it her or Mo Qianhuan who has the problem? The two of them see Wu Liang as completely different people. Or is it that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and Mo Qianhuan only thinks that the other person is very outstanding?
"What lady would strike a seductive pose and wiggle her buttocks on the first meeting with a strange man?"
Wu Liang glanced at Bai Yu. The guests in the villa were all his classmates. This was a hotel that Qiao Ranxin and Ye Luotong had specially chosen for the students of Class Two.
However, he did not recognize her. This woman was not a student in Class Two, yet she appeared inside the villa, which meant that she was likely someone close to Qiao Ranxin, just like Yun Xi.
The other party is not one of the female protagonists. All the female protagonists in this game have already appeared: He Xue, Ning Shuang, Su Qian, Ye Luotong, Qiao Xinying, and the hidden female protagonist Qiao Ranxin.
Are they uncontrollable characters like Han Yu and Yao Qing? Sigh, I feel like the plot is getting more and more outrageous, and he's starting to not know what to do anymore.
"..."
Bai Yu felt a lump in her throat when Wu Liang asked her a question. She wanted to refute him but didn't know what to say, since what he said didn't seem to make any mistakes.
She had indeed been very indecent in front of Wu Liang, so she could understand why he would make such a comment. In fact, it was already a great favor that Wu Liang hadn't mistaken her for a prostitute soliciting customers at night.
"Have you encountered any trouble lately, the kind of strange and inexplicable things, like—misfortune?"
After a moment of silence, Bai Yu slowly spoke. She no longer wanted to argue with Wu Liang here. What she needed to do now was to find out about his recent situation.
Since she had promised Huanhuan, she couldn't go back on her word. Besides, she was indeed somewhat interested in Wu Liang. She had never heard of or seen anyone with so many "Death Line" before.
Furthermore, given the deathly aura that doesn't belong to this world, if she could figure out the secrets surrounding the other party, perhaps her understanding of misfortune could deepen several levels.
Wu Liang was stunned upon hearing this. It seemed that he hadn't encountered any serious misfortune in a long time, since the last time such misfortune had befallen him.
Wait a minute, how would the other person know about this? If they didn't know him well, why would a normal person come up and ask him these things so directly?
"Where did you hear that from?"
Wu Liang frowned slightly at this point in the conversation. He didn't recall ever mentioning anything about misfortune to outsiders. Even Yao Shi and Milutin didn't know anything about it, so why did the other party...?
Misfortune hadn't befallen him for a long time, but before Mo Qianhuan left, she had said that the dark aura on his body had completely dissipated, so it was normal that no misfortune had occurred.
But why would this girl named Bai Yu suddenly ask about misfortune? Could she be like Mo Qianhuan? Can she also see the dark aura around her? Or does she have the same ability as Mo Qianhuan?
"You probably guessed it by now, right? My identity."
Upon seeing Wu Liang, Bai Yu was surprised to find that he instantly became wary and hostile towards her, as if he had become a completely different person. She raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Wow~ It turns out that a person's aura can really change in an instant. He was just a carefree and slovenly young man a moment ago, but now he looks like a wild beast full of danger.
"What is your relationship with Mo Qianhuan?"
Wu Liang squinted and carefully examined the girl in front of him. In this world, the only person who knew that he had the secret of "misfortune" was the motorcycle girl Mo Qianhuan.
Mo Qianhuan herself said that there are very few people like her who can clearly see "misfortune". She doesn't think that you can encounter a psychic with mysterious powers just by going on a trip.
This woman must have an extraordinary relationship with Mo Qianhuan, otherwise Mo Qianhuan would never easily reveal information about herself to outsiders.
"Huh? That's what you call Huanhuan?"
Hearing Wu Liang call out Mo Qianhuan's name directly, Bai Yu tilted her head in confusion. Why call someone by their name so coldly?
What's going on? Can't he call her something a little more affectionate? Huanhuan is his girlfriend, after all. Can't this man show even a little bit of concern for his girlfriend?
"?"
A big question mark popped up above Wu Liang's head. He and Mo Qianhuan were classmates and friends. If he didn't call her by her name, what should he call her? Should he call her by her nickname, "Motorcycle Hero"?
"Is that how you call your girlfriend? Can't you be a little more romantic? Huanhuan has been searching for clues related to misfortune all day long because of you."
"If Huanhuan knew you called her that, she'd be heartbroken. How can you be so inconsiderate as her boyfriend? Even if you're shy, you should still call her Qianhuan or 'baby' or something."
Bai Yu hugged her breasts and muttered unhappily, "This is a boyfriend? Not only does he call me 'girlfriend' so casually, but he also has no feelings at all. He doesn't seem to miss Huanhuan at all. Huanhuan was really blind to have found such a boyfriend."
I really don't know what that girl is trying to achieve by staying up all night studying theoretical knowledge for him. If this man were her boyfriend, she would have kicked him in the face long ago.
"Huh? Girlfriend? What are you talking about?"
"Don't use your own thinking to make malicious assumptions about us. Mo Qianhuan is a very good friend of mine. Even if you are her friend, I don't want you to make jokes about her casually."
Wu Liang stood up and walked to Bai Yu, looking down at her fair and clean face. He had a good relationship with Mo Qianhuan, but he didn't want to be the subject of such meaningless jokes by outsiders.
"Ah?"
Bai Yu was startled by Wu Liang's aggressive approach, and stared blankly at the boy in front of her who was almost touching her.
Only then did she see Wu Liang's true face clearly. He had dignified and handsome features, and his cold and handsome face was sharply defined. He was staring at her with cold eyes, and his icy gaze made her shiver involuntarily.
"She's my good friend, so don't make those kinds of jokes again."
Wu Liang leaned down and looked seriously at the silver-haired girl in front of him. Did Mo Qianhuan telling her his secret mean she was a trustworthy partner...?
Chapter 5: Helpers from Greece
Bai Yu's brain went blank for a moment. The unique scent of a man blew on her face with the evening breeze, and Wu Liang's handsome face kept magnifying in her pupils.
The two were so close that she could clearly hear the other's heartbeat.
Bai Yu swallowed hard to soothe her dry throat. She wanted to take a few steps back to increase the distance between herself and Wu Liang. They were too close. She felt that she could touch the tip of his nose if she just stood on her tiptoes.
"Babble!"
The sudden tightening sensation on her wrist startled Bai Yu, who screamed and froze on the spot like a stone, too afraid to move an inch.
Her body taut like a longbow, Bai Yu stared wide-eyed at Wu Liang, who was getting closer and closer to her, her beautiful eyes filled with shyness. Wait, wait, what... what's going on... why did it suddenly turn out like this...?
She didn't do anything. She only said that he wasn't a good boyfriend. Could it be that he's angry? Is he angry because she said something bad about him?
What should she do? Should she apologize? But he looks so fierce right now; even if she apologizes, it probably won't calm his anger... Oh no, oh no, oh no... She should just run away...
"Huh?"
Bai Yu, who was trying to escape, turned Bai Yu. Wu Liang's hand gripped her wrists tightly like an iron clamp, and she had no way to break free. His strength was terrifying, even though his body didn't look particularly strong...
Bai Yu was suddenly stunned. Beneath that white T-shirt were beautifully sculpted, powerful muscles, the streamlined lines of which spoke volumes about his strength.
Although the man appeared somewhat thin from a distance, she only realized how terrifying his body was upon closer inspection.
"I am her senior, and we met in an ancient church in Greece."
After an unknown amount of time, Bai Yu finally recovered from her shock and looked at the man in front of her again.
Her heart was pounding violently, and she couldn't even explain why. She just felt her heart pounding wildly, like she had just finished a two-kilometer race.
"When I encountered misfortune before, Mo Qianhuan helped me a lot. She is my good friend and I am very grateful to her."
"So please don't make jokes about relationships, I think she might not be happy if she heard them."
Smelling the orchid fragrance emanating from the girl, Wu Liang realized that the two of them were too close, so he released her wrist and stepped aside.
No wonder she knew about her misfortune, but why would she return from such a distant land as Greece? Coincidence? Or...?
"I understand. It was my fault just now. I didn't expect you to react so strongly."
Listening to Wu Liang's explanation and seeing his serious expression, Bai Yu opened her mouth as if to say something, but swallowed the words back and changed her words.
This man wasn't lying; he genuinely considered Huanhuan a very important friend. There must be some misunderstanding; perhaps she really was mistaken.
Thinking back carefully, it does seem to make sense. Huanhuan never mentioned that Wu Liang was her boyfriend in front of her; it was just her own subjective judgment.
It seems I need to find an opportunity to talk to Huanhuan. If we were just ordinary friends, why would that girl have specifically asked me to come here to help?
"Meow~~"
The kitten that had been sticking to Wu Liang cautiously approached Bai Yu's feet and rubbed its slightly dirty head against the girl's side.
"Hmm... this little guy..."
While still thinking about how to explain to Wu Liang, Bai Yu looked at the kitten at her feet, squatted down, and gently stroked its head.
Completely disregarding the kitten's filthy dust and bacteria, she held it in her arms and gently stroked its fur; it was a pitiful creature after all.
"It's a bit clingy to you. Since you two are so destined to be together, why don't you just adopt it?"
Wu Liang smiled helplessly as he looked at Bai Yu, who had suddenly hugged the stray cat. He seemed to have been a little too sensitive just now.
Although he sensed a hint of pride in her during their conversation, she was surprisingly gentle with this small animal.
"I have no interest in this kind of creature, and I would never keep it as a pet."
Bai Yu glanced at Li Yue and then blushed slightly as she said that keeping such a small animal was of no use to her and that it was best to let it die on its own.
"Is that so? Then it's your choice. I've been out for so long, it's about time I left."
Wu Liang glanced at his watch and left. Although he cared a lot about the girl named Bai Yu, he had to practice with Mo Qianhuan first.
It's been a while since I last contacted him. I haven't received a response to the messages he sent before. He's probably too busy to check them.
"We will meet again."
Bai Yu watched Wu Liang's retreating figure, then patted his chest and smiled slightly. Misfortune is unpredictable; no one can know when it will strike.
Moreover, judging from the "Death Line" on that man's body, his future is truly very dangerous. Just as Huanhuan said, if things don't go well...
"I might die, and it's an unavoidable death."
Bai Yu's expression gradually darkened, his scarlet pupils gleaming with a chilling light in the night, as numerous and complex "Death Line" appeared on one person at the same time.
Wu Liang's future is extremely dangerous. If this is not dealt with in time, he will definitely not be able to escape his "certain death" fate.
Her eyes could see the "Death Line." The more "Death Line" a person had, the more difficult it was to avoid death. But the number of "Death Line" on that man's body was simply...
"Meow~"
A soft whimper came from her arms. Bai Yu looked at the stray cat rubbing against her and felt her heart soften the moment she met the kitten's big, watery eyes. It was just too cute.
"Tonight, and only tonight, you can be with me."
Bai Yu coughed a few times to cover his embarrassment, then furtively looked around. After confirming that no one was around, he hugged the kitten in his arms and gradually disappeared into the darkness in the distance.
When you get back, contact Huanhuan first. Tell her about the man's misfortune and what kind of relationship they have. But she probably already guessed it.
Huanhuan probably really likes Wu Liang, but that man just doesn't know it.
Chapter Six: The Late-Night Phone Call
Looking at the empty room, Wu Liang was quite surprised. Even though Qiao Xinying wasn't there, Milutin and the others still liked to come and visit.
For the past few nights, Milutin and Ning Shuang would sneak into his room to do naughty things, which made it hard for him to sleep. When he woke up during the day, he was listless and had no energy.
It seems those women noticed this too, which is why they didn't continue to bother him in his room today, allowing him to get a good night's sleep.
"So, there's still no reply to the message."
Lying on the tatami mat, Wu Liang took out his phone, opened his contacts, and smiled helplessly when he saw that the message he sent to Mo Qianhuan was still in the "only" status.
I wonder what this girl has been busy with lately. She doesn't even have time to check the news. It seems that Mo Qianhuan's life in Greece is not as leisurely as she said before she left.
She even said that she could live freely according to her own ideas after going to Greece, but judging from the current situation, that's not the case at all.
"Make a phone call..."
Wu Liang dialed Mo Qianhuan's number. It seemed that Greece time was six hours behind here, which meant it was about 8 p. m. there.
It's been a long time since I've received any contact from Mo Qianhuan. I wonder how she's doing in Greece. It would be nice to make a call and have a quick chat.
Moreover, he happened to have something to discuss with her right now, something about Bai Yu. He wanted to confirm with Mo Qianhuan why she had come here.
"Hello... The number you dialed is currently busy... Please try again later..."
The familiar busy signal came through the speaker. Wu Liang rested his chin on his hand and smiled slightly as he stared at Mo Qianhuan's avatar on the screen.
He's really busy, still on the phone at this hour. Oh well, I'll contact her again in half an hour. I'm not that sleepy right now anyway...
(Half an hour later)
"Hello... The number you dialed is currently busy... Please try again later..."
"?"
Wu Liang tilted his head in confusion. Why was Mo Qianhuan's phone still busy even after so much time had passed? What was this girl doing? Why could she talk to someone on the phone for so long?
