Hearing the man, Liu San immediately bowed his head. “Young Master,” he murmured quickly. “We have searched many organizations in City A, but the doctor you’ve spoken of remains unknown. Even with the reward, nobody dares to say anything. It’s almost impossible to find her.”

“Impossible?”

“You really are useless!”

The richest man widened his eyes, shaking his head in disappointment.

While he was expecting the blunt response, he still couldn’t help but curse at his men. After all, with the money he was offering, couldn’t they have at least given him a clue on the doctor’s location?

“But we are positive that the doctor resides in City A,” Liu San quickly said. “Since you’ve come, we could definitely succeed in finding him.”

“Hm.”

The young man simply turned away and gazed out the window. The high-rise buildings and colorful shops looked amazing compared to the dull shops he’d see in Country K.

His fingers drummed against the window as his thoughts wandered elsewhere.

..

The next day, the school was bustling with students once more. Everyone was enjoying their break, bringing in snacks from the cafeteria.

Lin Xin reached out and placed all the snacks from her bag on Yao Tang’s table just as Qin Jinghad walked out of the classroom. A slow smile bloomed across her face.

“These snacks are all for you,” she said, cupping her face in a cutesy manner.

“Why?” Yao Tang furrowed her eyebrows.

“Well, I have a few questions I wanted to ask you about Physics. I was wondering if you’d be free later so we can discuss them together. Please?”

Lin Xin’s eyes widened pleadingly.

However, the other student didn’t say a word. Instead, she gazed at the bags of chips and candy before glancing back at her, deep in thought.

“The other classes are working so hard right now. We can’t let Class 20 fall behind. Maybe we can just run over what we’ve learned later, just to refresh our memory before the big test?”

However, before Yao Tang could even say a word in reply, she saw Lin Xinclasping her hands and closing her eyes. She looked like a puppy begging for treats.

“Fine.”

Unable to refuse her, Yao Tang relented, rubbing her temple.

That afternoon, Yao Rong and Jiang Wanhad requested that she head back earlier. They said something about making pastries at home, but it seemed that she’d have to wait for another day.

The big exam was coming up. It was only natural that they’d review before the exam.

Glancing at the clock, she stood up. “I’m heading to the bathroom.”

“Okay.”

Lin Xin clapped her hands together, cheering in her seat.

She could finally study with Sister Tang again! Maybe she can even drag Qin Jingand Meng Yanginto the study session so that they could learn a thing or two.

Just as Yao Tang was walking out the door, another person was about to recklessly bump into her.

Noticing this, she glanced at the boy and stepped aside, dodging him.

What she didn’t expect was for another boy to run toward her, unable to stop.

It was a good thing Yao Tang had fast reflexes. She immediately wove a path for herself where she was able to dodge the young boys almost effortlessly.

However, as the two boys couldn’t stop, they ultimately bumped into each other. The sound echoed across the hall as the two boys dropped on the floor with a resounding thump.

“Ow!”

“Ouch!”

“What the hell?”

The two boys groaned clutching their heads.

Yao Tang glanced at the pair. “Are you guys okay?”

Seeing her offering to help, the two boys glanced at each other. A secretive glint shown in their eyes before they turned to Yao Tang. Immediately, their lips started to tremble.

“My foot hurts,” the boy immediately groaned, clutching his foot. “Please help me, it hurts! If you could help us up—”

“I’m not helping you up.”

Yao Tang stared at them expressionlessly.”

Hearing this, the other boy staggered up as he glared at Yao Tang. “What kind of person are you? You were walking so fast, causing both of us to collide. Now that we’re already lying on the ground, you won’t even help us up?”
