Xiao Huan couldn’t call Yun Bilu in front of the student union members. Seeing that they were not budging, Xiao Huan pretended to check up on Yun Bilu in the bathroom and called her. However, after several tries, Yun Bilu still didn’t pick up the call.
Xiao Huan was so anxious that she almost smashed her phone. She clasped her hands and said, “Little Lulu, it’s not that your sisters don’t want to help you. It’s all up to you now!”
When Xiao Huan returned, the student union members’ eyes lit up. “How is she? Is Yun Bilu coming out?”
Xiao Huan giggled awkwardly. Waving her hands, she said, “Err, haha… Bilu really had had too much to eat. Her stomach is feeling upset, y’know? You’ll have to wait for a while.”
After fifteen minutes, Chu Xin went to take a look. She also secretly called Yun Bilu. When she returned, she continued to claim that Yun Bilu was still feeling unwell.
They were still saying the same thing after half an hour. The student union members began to look livid. If they still weren’t able to tell that something was up, they must really be stupid.
A few of them barged into the bathroom. After confirming that no one was inside, they stormed back to Room 302 and yelled at Xiao Huan and the rest. “Are you really her roommates? Your roommate is missing, and you’re still covering up for her! It’s late at night, and she still went out. Don’t you know it’s dangerous outside?”
Xiao Huan and the rest didn’t dare to say a word as they put up with the student union’s fury. Bilu had clearly been lying on the bed when they last saw her. Aside from that, the lights had been switched off. Who would have thought that this would happen?
After the student union members were done venting their anger, they sighed several times before leaving with their notebooks.
Chu Xin looked at Xiao Huan and Xiao Nan, then asked, “Is it that serious?”
Xiao Huan and Xiao Nan nodded. “It seems like it.”
“That simply won’t do. We have to hurry and look for her.”
…
When Huang Yize found out that Yun Bilu wasn’t in her room that night, his expression turned cold.
At first, Ji Zhiye thought that Huang Yize would be affected, but he couldn’t hear any change in his tone. “Huang Yize, I called you to report this. Why aren’t you reacting?”
“I’m still in a meeting. I’ll talk to you later.”
After ending the call, Huang Yize continued the meeting with the superiors of the Black Dragon Gang.
As the elders of the Black Dragon Gang, they wouldn’t probe nor be curious about their Master’s matters. They continued listening attentively in the meeting.
As soon as the meeting ended, Huang Yize called two of his trusted subordinates into his office and relayed some instructions.
That same night, he also told his father that his schedule would be pushed forward. He would be returning to school earlier.
Everything appeared calm, and nothing seemed to have changed. However, underneath it all, everything seemed to be changing at the same time.
Back in the university, Ji Zhiye was letting his imagination run wild. Feeling extremely conflicted, he wondered, “Does Young Master Huang care about Yun Bilu at all? It seems like he does, but it also seems like he doesn’t. Could he be in the middle of being fond of her and also not repulsed by her?”
…
Meanwhile, in Country A’s Zi Bei City, the results of the drama’s publicity were great. Because of that press conference, the criticisms were long gone. Everyone was now paying attention to Yun Bixue’s drama. On the other hand, someone began investigating the Snow Cloud Group—they speculated if the Snow Cloud Group indeed belonged to Yun Bixue.
If that powerful organization really belonged to Yun Bixue, then her capabilities were truly limitless. The progress of the Snow Cloud Group within this year was absolutely remarkable.
Because they suspected that Yun Bixue was a force to be reckoned with, she was ostracized by the noble families in Ning An City. The important political parties in Zi Bei City also didn’t dare to grant Yun Bixue too much power, that was why the schedule of her drama was in constant review.
Yun Bixue had experienced a rather long delay in Zi Bei City, and she didn’t want things to drag on any further. She could only buy some gifts and look for the most senior figure in the entertainment industry, Senior Hong.
When she stepped in the Hong family’s living room, however, Yun Bixue was stunned as she saw another person sitting inside. It was Young Master Wang—Wang Qianjin!
