A group of people gave up on taking a taxi and walked to the rather nice Western restaurant Cao Jianhui had mentioned for dinner.

Under Lin Lin’s insistence, Cao Jianhui eventually had no choice but to accept the decision that both would cover half the cost of the dinner.

“Little Bro, you could use this opportunity to invite Miss Lin out for a meal alone, we won’t be there to be your third wheel,” Li Fuming whispered to Cao Jianhui when he saw him looking a little gloomy.

Upon hearing this, Cao Jianhui immediately brightened up and even gave Li Fuming a hearty slap on the shoulder as praise for his idea.

After dinner, the group prepared to return to the university.

As soon as they entered the campus, Luo Ziling’s phone rang. He hesitated for a moment after seeing the number displayed, which was Ouyang Huihui’s, but eventually walked aside to answer the call.

“Boss, who’s calling?” Cao Jianhui noticed Luo Ziling’s strange behavior, knowing it was definitely a woman on the line, and ran over to ask with a lecherous tone, “Is it Mrs. Yang?”

His voice was very soft, audible only to Luo Ziling, but it still made Luo Ziling furious.

“Get lost,” Luo Ziling kicked Cao Jianhui and then ran off a few steps.

The others looked at him oddly, but no one else came over to ask out of curiosity.

“Let’s go, let’s go, let’s not interfere with the boss’s good fortune,” Cao Jianhui, having been kicked by Luo Ziling, immediately lost his dignity and yelled at the other classmates, “We’ll head back to the dorm. Don’t worry about the boss’s life or death; it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t come back tonight.”

Hearing Cao Jianhui say this, Lin Lin, who had her own designs on Luo Ziling, suddenly felt very frustrated.

In the end, the group of curious classmates still left Luo Ziling behind, heeding Cao Jianhui’s shouts.

The phone took a while to connect, and when it did, no voice could be heard, only a string of noisy laughter. Ouyang Huihui on the other end of the phone wasn’t sure what was happening and hesitated for a while before asking tentatively, “Luo Ziling, where are you?”

“I just got back to the university, what’s up?” Luo Ziling asked, not very amicably.

Upon hearing Luo Ziling’s displeased tone, Ouyang Huihui couldn’t help but feel angry and said with annoyance, “Of course, there’s something, can’t I contact you if there isn’t?”

“If there’s something, just say it!” Luo Ziling couldn’t be bothered with her senseless talk.

“I want to talk to you face to face,” Ouyang Huihui’s attitude further angered Ouyang Huihui. “It’s about Li Jiaqing. If you don’t want to, then I won’t bother with it.”

“Fine,” Luo Ziling thought for a moment but eventually didn’t reject Ouyang Huihui’s request, “Name the place, I’ll come over. Somewhere close to the university, it’s getting late.”

There was a moment of hesitation on Ouyang Huihui’s end before she said softly, “How about Lake Wuming? It’s just to talk about some matters.”

“Alright,” Luo Ziling hesitated for a second but agreed: “Then let’s meet at the eastern corner there.”

The fact that Ouyang Huihui proposed meeting at Lake Wuming took Luo Ziling by surprise.

“Alright,” he finally agreed.

About fifteen minutes later, Luo Ziling met Ouyang Huihui at the agreed place.

The spot where they met was the brightest part of Lake Wuming’s shore, and also the last place couples coming here for a date would want to stay.

Luo Ziling wore a pair of big glasses, and Ouyang Huihui, also fearing recognition, wore a baseball cap, nearly making Luo Ziling fail to recognize her.

“What’s the matter??” As soon as he saw Ouyang Huihui, Luo Ziling asked impatiently, “Does Li Jiaqing still want revenge?”

“No,” Luo Ziling’s impatience irked Ouyang Huihui, and she replied irritably, “Why are you so annoying? I came here with good intentions to tell you something, yet you’re so impatient?”

“Isn’t it because of the trouble you caused?” Luo Ziling replied just as irritably, “How could all this have happened without you?”

“Without me causing trouble, how could you have received so much compensation?” Ouyang Huihui said as she suddenly bounced in front of Luo Ziling, “Do you know how much money Li Dongjun and his son paid you because of that day’s incident? Do you know what kind of price Li Jiaqing paid for hiring people to beat you up?”

“What?” Luo Ziling was a bit confused, unable to react all of a sudden.

“Do you know that because of your mother, Li Dongjun’s father was forced to shell out ten billion to settle this incident,” Ouyang Huihui said with a bit of gritting her teeth, waving her arms, “Ten billion, have you ever thought your life is worth that much money? Li Jiacheng’s assets total about fifty billion, and most of it is real estate. He only resolved the matter after selling off all the shares of one of his companies. Li Jiaqing had it even worse; not only did his family pay a terrible price for his folly, do you have any idea how dreadful that price was? And he himself was also forced to leave Yan University.”

“Ah?” Luo Ziling was stunned by Ouyang Huihui’s words, looking at her in disbelief, “Are you telling me the truth?”

“Of course it’s true,” Ouyang Huihui pouted discontentedly, “all because your strong-willed mother, when people learned of her identity, they were scared half to death. They just begged your mother to let them off, willing to pay any price. Hmph, over ten billion, even if you find a job after graduating from college, do you think you could earn that much money in your lifetime?”

Luo Ziling didn’t respond; he hadn’t come back to his senses yet, and what Ouyang Huihui had just said had frightened him.

Li Dongjun actually paid a price of ten billion, something Luo Ziling had never even dreamed of.

Ten billion is a one followed by nine zeroes, how huge a pile would that be if converted into cash?

For Li Jiaqing to drop out of Yan University, the price his parents paid was even greater—the thought of it all was terrifying.

These two families were willing to pay such a huge price simply because they feared Ling Ruonan, was this woman really so ruthless?

Luo Ziling didn’t fully believe these circumstances; he thought his mother, who was so beautiful, couldn’t possibly be so heartless and cruel. It must be Ouyang Feifei’s anger. But Ouyang Feifei was also quite beautiful, so by that logic, it didn’t quite add up.

Could it really be because of Ling Ruonan’s ruthlessness, or perhaps it was Ling Ruonan’s threat combined with Ouyang Feifei’s strong-willed nature?

Seeing Luo Ziling standing there with a face full of shock, Ouyang Huihui grew even more unsatisfied and snorted before walking ahead, ignoring Luo Ziling.

“If you don’t believe it, you can ask my sister; of course, you can also ask your mom, they’ll tell you,” Ouyang Huihui said as she walked away, turning her head to shout back at Luo Ziling.

Just then, an accident occurred, as Ouyang Huihui, who was turning back to talk to Luo Ziling, didn’t watch her step. Failing to see a gap in the stones piled along the lake shore, she stepped into the void and slipped into the lake.

A “plop” sound splashed water up to the sky.
