” Ding! Ding! Ding!”
Zhao Yu was so engrossed in his coding that he only snapped back to reality when the cla.s.s bell rang.
He felt a menacing stare, as if being watched by an old ghost at the same time.
Turning his head around, he saw that it was indeed Huo Xiao Xi was still staring him.
She hadn’t left yet. When she noticed Zhao Yu looking at her, she tried to pull off an intimidating face. However, her cheeks were a bit chubby, which made her attempted glare look not menacing at all but rather cute.
“???”
What did she want? Was she watching me all this time? Was she trying to act cute in front of him? I have no idea!
It was already the appointed time. Zhao Yu quickly packed his things and walked towards the teaching building with terror in his heart.
Huo Xiao Xi had hoped that Zhao Yu might came over to say something to her. However, Zhao Yu just walked away without uttering a single word, leaving her both annoyed and disappointed.
“Hmph~!”
Huo Xiao Xi muttered, “This isn’t over!”
“Did Zhao Yu decide not to come?”
“Zhao Yu won’t be coming, right?”
“He probably don’t dare to come!”
Outside the teaching building, Liu Si Yu and Qiao Bing Bing waited for a while but Zhao Yu was nowhere to be seen.
“If he doesn’t come, it’s better. Saves me the trouble…” Liu Si Yu said with a smile. However, deep down, she felt a sense of loss, as if something that was supposed to be hers suddenly vanished.
Qiao Bing Bing was also a bit disappointed, the show for this evening was gone.
She knew that the vice-president of the student union had been invited tonight.
“Bon Bon”
From a distance, the sound of a car’s horn was heard. Huang Zi Long’s vehicle pulled up among the crowd, drawing glances from onlookers.
Many knew this was Huang Zi Long’s car. They just took a fleeting glance and moved on.
However, a few girls giggled among themselves, mustering up the courage to approach the car and knock on its window.
“Hey, can 1 get your contact?” one of them asked.
Huang Zi Long observed the girls up and down, then responded dismissively, “Sorry, I have a girlfriend.”
With that, he honked the horn again.
Liu Si Yu and Qiao Bing Bing walked over.
The girls, who were initially a bit miffed at being rejected, felt ashamed upon seeing the approaching pair. Without another word, they quickly left.
“Where’s Zhao Yu?”
Huang Zi Long poked his head out and asked as the two approached.
“I’m not sure, he didn’t come to cla.s.s tonight!” Qiao Bing Bing said cheerfully.
Huang Zi Long’s face showed a hint of disappointment. He had hoped for some special entertainment tonight.
“Ladies, get in the car! Haven’t you seen how the other guys are staring? They’re almost ready to stab me…”
Liu Si Yu looked around and indeed noticed several gazes directed their way. She quickly climbed into the back seat.
Huang Zi Long had a notorious reputation in school. He was a known playboy with countless current or ex-girlfriends.
Liu Si Yu felt anxious. By getting into his car, she feared rumors might spread, potentially tarnishing her reputation.
She looked at Qiao Bing Bing and felt relieved.
She had gotten into the car with her sister, not alone. Moreover, she was sitting in the back seat.
“Sit tight…”
Huang Zi Long was about to leave when the door of the pa.s.senger seat was suddenly open. Zhao Yu got in skillfully.
“Zhao Yu? You’re here!”
Huang Zi Long chuckled and didn’t ask why he was late. He stepped on the accelerator.
“Zhao Yu, what are you doing with the laptop?!”
Qiao Bing Bing asked curiously.
“I was studying in the library and forgot the time. I just remembered my agreement with you guys and rushed over!”
Zhao Yu smiled and said that he was in a good mood. His efforts in the afternoon were not in vain.
The progress of the artificial intelligence was nearly done. As long as he attend to cla.s.ses with server provided, he would be able to create an Al to support him.
At that time, with the help of the Al, his mission would become much easier.
Initially, Liu Si Yu had been chatting and laughing with them before Zhao Yu got on the car. After he got on the car, she kept quiet and leaned back in her seat. She tilted her head and looked out of the window as if someone owed her a lot of money.
Huang Zi Long glanced at the rearview mirror and smile.
His hobby was to sleep other people’s lover or partner especially Zhao Yu’s G.o.ddess. Liu Si Yu’s att.i.tude suited his appet.i.te very well. Only such a woman was worth pursuing.
“Beep beep beep —!”
Throughout their drive in the campus, Huang Zi Long’s constant honking was a clear display of his ent.i.tled ‘rich second-generation’ att.i.tude.
Many students on the road had to dodge quickly. Some hot-tempered guys ready to shout a retort. Yet, upon recognizing Huang Zi Long, they held their tongues.
Since the reign of the Milky Way Empire, the rules of wealth and power had become prominent. The bond between money and authority reached unprecedented levels.
In the past, many would dare to confront someone like Huang Zi Long.
Now, anyone who dared to be disrespectful had to question their own fate.
Within a month, everyone had adapted to the new set of rules to survive.
Soon, the group arrived at the entrance of the ‘Heavenly Earth’ bar..
