Chapter 227: I Believe In Her
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zheng You saw Yan Ruo looking up at Bai Lin from the window and became even angrier.
She had always looked up to Yan-gege and admired him like this. However, this tall and handsome man was looking up at another woman the same way, and Zheng You suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.
It seemed like she was really going to lose her Yan-gege, and the person who had s.n.a.t.c.hed him away was this Bai Lin.
A sense of crisis that Zheng You had never felt before engulfed her in an instant.
She was born with a silver spoon and everything had always been smooth sailing for her. She could get whatever she wanted and was a blessed girl in everyone’s eyes.
She and Yan-gege were clearly the childhood sweethearts that were the most compatible…
Zheng You saw Bai Lin beckoning Yan Ruo to help her tear the curtain in half using the gla.s.s shards she had found earlier as a knife. She could not help but clench her fists so hard that one of her exquisite manicured nails broke. The pain on her fingertip gradually woke her up.
“I don’t know what Miss Bai is trying to do, but we still have to focus on solving the riddle. Don’t you all agree?”
Yan Ruo and Bai Lin completely ignored her. Jing Shan echoed her words and praised her repeatedly.
Li Xuan did not comment. He was not on the same side as Zheng You to begin with, and he even teased Ye Xing, “Baby, do you have any ideas? If you have something to say, you can say it so that we can all discuss it.”
Ye Xing bashfully punched him in the chest and pouted, “Why are you asking me? Everyone here is so good. How can I be smart enough?”
Li Xuan ruffled her hair. He had come to this show to bring resources to Ye Xing, so it did not matter if she could make any great contributions or not. As long as she made her presence known to the audience, it could pave her way for the future.
[What’s going on? Didn’t they say that Li Xuan’s a playboy? Why do I feel like he really likes Ye Xing?]
[Our Xingxing’s beautiful and gentle. It’s only normal that people like her!]
Zhou Guang glanced at Zheng You and slowly said, “What do you think about the riddle to open the door, Miss Zheng?”
Zheng You tried to ignore the turmoil in her heart and tried to maintain the etiquette that a lady from a wealthy family should have. “The color palette is definitely used to mix the colors. The three lights on the blackboard just so happen to be a combination of red, yellow, and blue. We can try to mix with these three colors.”
Zhou Guang was listening halfway when he saw from the corner of his eye that Bai Lin had tied a dead knot between the two sections of the curtain to form a long rope. She then tied one end of the curtain to her hand.
“Xiao Lin, what are you doing? Don’t tell me you’re thinking of jumping to the third floor directly?” Zhou Guang was shocked. This was the fourth floor. If she fell without any protection, she would definitely be injured no matter how skilled she was.
“This is the fastest and most direct way. Solving the problem is also to open the door. If I open the door now, won’t we be able to escape from this school faster?” Bai Lin stretched her long legs and stood on the windowsill. She opened the window and looked at the height.
“Xiao Lin! Wait a minute! Zheng You has an idea! She said she could open the door!” Zhou Guang strode forward and anxiously tried to negotiate with Bai Lin. “We’re not in a hurry. Let’s take our time to solve the riddle, okay?”
Yan Ruo had never seen Zhou Guang like this before and could not help but feel surprised.
Zhou Guang had also partic.i.p.ated in the entire program of Traveler back then, and there were quite a few dangerous scenes. Why was he so nervous now?
“San-ge, just wait and see. I’ll come for you immediately.” Bai Lin squatted on the windowsill and turned around to give Zhou Guang a confident smile. She turned on the flashlight and bit it before she jumped down with a swift flip.
Zhou Guang angrily pointed at Yan Ruo and questioned, “Why are you doing the same when she’s messing around? This is the fourth floor! I only have one sister. How are you going to give her back to me if something happens to her?” Entrusted by Bai Lin, Yan Ruo was holding the other end of the curtain tightly in his hand.
When Bai Lin asked him for help just now, she carefully peeked at the area between his thumb and index finger. She only relaxed when she saw that the previous sc.r.a.pe had healed.
Now that Bai Lin had jumped down, he pulled the curtain hard to act as her support. His sleeves were rolled up a bit for convenience, revealing his arms that were bulging with muscles and veins due to the exertion.
In contrast to Zhou Guang’s anxiousness, Yan Ruo was extremely calm. “Since she chose me to be her backing, I’ll definitely do my best for her.”
Feeling the pulling force on the other side of the curtain disappear, Yan Ruo knew that this was Bai Lin sending him a signal. Bai Lin must have safely arrived at the cla.s.sroom on the third floor.
“Zhou Guang, you can rest a.s.sured.” Yan Ruo slowly rolled the curtain up before putting it to the side. He turned around and told Zhou Guang with determination, “I believe in Xiao Lin’s ability, and I also believe that I can protect her..”
