Chapter 4

Before I even made it back to school, I received a message from my friend Jiang Shaotian.

[Sister Ruyi! Hurry and check our school’s confession wall!]

I hadn’t even had time to look when Chen Ling shoved her phone right in front of me.

It was practically in my face.

“Ruyi! Look!”

Someone had posted a video on the confession wall, and the likes and comments were climbing by the second.

Chen Ling looked frantic. “There were people from our school at that restaurant just now. Someone filmed it and posted it!”

The video cut off right at the end, just as Zhu Songan was pointing at me and accusing me of grabbing his butt.

Judging by this video alone, I had already become some perverted woman with bizarre tastes who liked stealing her roommate’s man.

The comments below were flying by.

I glanced at them casually.

[Holy crap! This is wild!]

[Yun Ruyi is usually so aloof. Who knew she was into this type!]

[I feel like I have a chance now, hahahahaha.]

[…]

The comments were all over the place. Some defended me, some were just there for the drama, and some were making dirty jokes.

I looked away and turned toward the car window.

Chen Ling sounded uneasy. “Ruyi, are you okay?”

“I’m fine.”

“I’m just thinking about something.”

Chen Ling grew curious. “What?”

I looked at her and curled my lips. “Tell me, what’s the tastiest way to cook pork?”

…

After getting out of the car with Chen Ling at the school gate, I patted her arm.

“You go back and rest first. I’ll probably need to go out tonight and take care of something.”

She saw Jiang Shaotian waiting off to the side. After thinking for a few seconds, she nodded.

“Then be careful while you’re out.”

Chen Ling didn’t know my real identity. She simply trusted me, so she never asked too many questions.

Once I watched her enter the school, Jiang Shaotian walked over.

“I’ve already had someone delete all the posts on the confession wall.”

“Sister Ruyi, what exactly happened?”

Jiang Shaotian was a junior member of one of the Ten Great Spirit Sects-the Jiang Family of Phoenix City. His grandfather had sent him to stay by my side for training and experience.

His convertible sports car was parked nearby. I walked over, braced one hand on the body of the car, and vaulted straight in.

“Let’s go. I’ll explain on the way.”

As the car gradually merged onto the main road, I told him the whole story from start to finish.

Jiang Shaotian said, “So Zhu Songan is a pig demon?”

I considered it for a moment. “The demonic aura on him tells me he is, but…”

Jiang Shaotian glanced over at me. “But?”

“But something about it feels off.”

Jiang Shaotian didn’t seem too concerned. “If there’s a problem, we’ll naturally figure it out once we find Zhu Songan.”

He turned the steering wheel, and the sports car drifted through an empty intersection before swinging onto another road.

I formed a hand seal, and a golden Spirit-Seeking Array flickered faintly into view.

Earlier, outside the restroom at the restaurant, I had left a mark on Zhu Songan. Tracking him down now was convenient enough.

“Find somewhere to park at the intersection up ahead. We’ll walk from there.”

His yellow sports car was way too eye-catching. It would be far too easy to alert the enemy.

This area was a well-known wealthy district.

The security was pretty strict, too.

I stood not far from a residential complex with my head lowered in thought. After Jiang Shaotian parked and came over, he asked in confusion, “What are we waiting for?”

“There are a lot of cameras in this complex. I’m thinking about how to get in.”

Jiang Shaotian fell silent for a moment. Then he simply grabbed my arm and walked over.

The security guard at the entrance poked his head out for a look, then immediately smiled. “Mr. Jiang, you’re here this late?”

“…”

Jiang Shaotian led me into the complex openly and confidently.

He explained, “My grandfather bought me several properties in Fengcheng.”

Without a doubt, one of them was in this very complex.

The way he did that made me look a little stupid…
