An SUV sped down a smooth, wide highway in Hangzhou.
Wind surged through the open windows, dispelling the sticky sweat on their skin, leaving a cool, refreshing sensation.
Bai Youwei sat in the passenger seat, humming a cheerful tune: "Little white rabbit, white and white, two ears sticking up, loves to eat carrots and greens, hopping and skipping, so cute~"
Tan Xiao chimed in from the back seat, "Haha! I know that one too! Let me recite one for you!"
He cleared his throat and recited with dramatic flair: "Little white rabbit, white and white, two ears sticking up, skinned and chopped into pieces, put in the pot and stir-fried, add water, cover the lid, sprinkle cilantro before serving!"
Before anyone else could react, he burst into laughter, "Hahahaha!"
"How about it? How about it? Don't you want to give me a thumbs up?" Tan Xiao nudged Cheng Weicai with his elbow. "Old Cheng, you do one too! Come on! ~Teacher Cheng, give us one~"
Teacher Cheng couldn't refuse, rubbing his chin. "Alright, let me think… Ah, I've got it! 'I urge you to drink a cup, do not refuse, I urge you to drink two cups, do not doubt, I urge you to drink three cups, then you will know…'"
"Old Cheng, that won't do!" Tan Xiao interrupted. "There's no little white rabbit, it doesn't count!"
"Hey, I haven't finished yet, listen to me," Cheng Weicai continued. "'I urge you to drink three cups, then you will know, the face today is old yesterday, the heart when drunk surpasses when sober…'"
Tan Xiao: "No, no~ Still no little white rabbit!"
Cheng Weicai became anxious: "Listen to me! There will be one soon, the rabbit is coming soon! … 'Heaven and earth are far and long-lasting, the white rabbit and the red crow chase each other, piling gold behind, supporting the Big Dipper, not as good as a cup of wine before life!' See! Isn't there one? The white rabbit and the red crow chase each other, the white rabbit, there it is, right?"
Tan Xiao: "Hahahahaha! Whatever, you pass since I don't understand it~"
Pan Xiaoxin sat silently beside them: "…"
Ever since this group found Brother Fei, ransacked his house, emptied his gasoline, and beat up his gang, they had basically been in a state of "singing and dancing."
…Are all adults so oblivious?
"Kid! You have good eyes!" Tan Xiao suddenly slung an arm around Pan Xiaoxin's shoulders. "You know how to rein in at the cliff's edge, choosing the right path! There will definitely be a place for you in the Jianghu in the future!"
Teacher Cheng corrected, "It's 'rein in at the cliff's edge'…"
"It's pretty much the same thing." Tan Xiao shook Pan Xiaoxin. "Come on, tell Brother Xiao, what were you thinking? Telling us their plan, weren't you afraid of their revenge?"
Pan Xiaoxin was dizzy from being shaken.
Teacher Cheng said, "Don't underestimate children, even they can distinguish right from wrong. Xiaoxin is a good kid, of course he wouldn't help a tyrant, right, Xiaoxin?"
Pan Xiaoxin: "…"
Actually, it wasn't quite like that…
He just felt that Shen Mo and Bai Youwei's side was more powerful than Brother Fei's.
Seeking advantage and avoiding harm is human nature, even children understand this principle.
"Brother Mo, where are we going next?" Tan Xiao asked.
"Let's find a place to stay for the night first." Shen Mo gripped the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. "North is Jiaxing, south is Shaoxing, both are places where a maze might appear…"
His voice trailed off as he slowly decelerated.
Everyone looked out the window and saw a long traffic jam ahead. On the side of the road, five people had set up tents. Three of them were the guys they almost had a fight with last time.
Tan Xiao instinctively whistled. "What a small world…"
Bai Youwei snorted disdainfully.
