Li Xuan was miserable.
He also shouted back, âI did! Heâs even fiercer after I f*cking beat him up! Weâre going to be wiped out if we keep fighting!â
Zheng You was about to break down. The country road was uneven to begin with, and she accidentally fell and scraped the skin on her arm and hand. She was in so much pain that she wanted to cry, but there was no time for her to be sad. The terrifying old man behind her quickly closed the distance between them.
After five minutes of running, everyone was exhausted. Wang Can ran out of energy and fell to the ground; he decided to give up. The old man stepped on him, walked over him, and rushed toward Zheng You.
The others slowed down and stopped in the end, panting as they watched Zheng You being chased.
As Zheng You cried, she ran in circles around the rest of the group. âWhy is this thing only chasing me?
Li Xuan caught his breath and felt much better. He crossed his arms and gloated, âMaybe youâre too annoying.â
âDonât make such sarcastic remarks! Hurry up and help me!â
At this moment, Bai Lin and Yan Ruo walked over unhurriedly. Zheng You saw Yan Ruo as if she had seen her savior. She ran over to him with the old man behind her. âYan-ge! Help me hack it to death!â
Bai Lin raised her eyebrows. âMiss Zheng, youâre wrong. Heâs already dead. How could he die again?
Zheng You was furious. She lost control and shouted, âBai Lin! Are you crazy? Why are you always going against me?!â
Zheng You was already close to them. She wanted to stop and pounce on Yan Ruo, but Bai Lin did not give her the chance. She grabbed her hand and ran around the house with her under her horrified gaze.
Bai Lin laughed heartily. âMiss Zheng, if your deduction is correct, how do you explain this old man who suddenly appeared?â
Zheng You was going crazy. âDonât be calculative about this at this point!â
Bai Linâs smile grew brighter. She ran quickly and skillfully. She used the house next to her to keep the old man in a state where he almost caught up with them.
Under Bai Linâs precise control, the old manâs withered hand grabbed Zheng Youâs skirt several times, making Zheng You cry in fear.
âBai Lin, Bai Lin, stop running. I really donât have any more strength.â Zheng You was out of breath, and her body and legs were at their limits, but Bai Lin was still fine.
She had no choice but to give in. âYour train of thought may be right. Please stop making fun of me. Letâs get rid of this old man and go back earlier.â
Bai Linâs movements slowed down. âThen tell me, where does my train of thought go right?â
Zheng You revealed an expression as if she had seen the sky fall and the earth collapse.
[Hahaha, the classic Bai Lin. Sheâs born to be the king of torture.]
[Iâm a fan of Bai Lin, but I feel sorry for Zheng You. She was forced to practice long-distance running with Bai Lin. How many laps have they run?]
[I donât care whether I should say it or not, Zheng Youâs physical strength is not bad. If it were me, I mightâve vomited directly.]
Zheng You was about to go crazy.
How would she know what Bai Lin was correct in?! Her words were just a temporary measure. She actually did not agree with Bai Lin.
Seeing that Zheng You was silent, Bai Lin sighed helplessly, âWell, youâre a stupid student, but Iâm not a bad teacher. Iâll ask you a question, and youâll answer me after thinking about it carefully. Then Iâll help you get rid of the old man, okay?â
Although Zheng You hated Bai Lin, she felt a sense of security because of her words.
She looked at Bai Lin with a complicated expression. Perhaps it was because hope was right in front of her, so her tired and numb legs were reinvigorated.
âGo ahead.â
Bai Lin laughed and relaxed a little. She led her around where the others were resting so that everyone could hear their voices.
Bai Lin said, âMiss Bai l s class has started. The first question. In every village, there must be who being in charge of the situation? âA rich man!â Zheng You answered confidently.
âItâs the village chief,â Bai Lin replied.
Zheng You was still confident. âThe village chief is also a rich man.â
Bai Lin was speechless.
[Hahaha, Bai Linâs expression looks like my supervisor whoâs editing my thesis.]
[Bai Lin: Iâve never taught such a stupid student in my life.]
[I feel that Zheng Youâs image in my heart has been shattered. Shouldnât she be a lady from a wealthy family? I just think sheâs a nouveau riche now..]
