"How did you find me?"
"That's none of your concern." Luo Wen walked into my room, poured herself a glass of water, and continued, "So, how is it? I didn't lie to you, did I? Your peach blossom luck has arrived, right?"
I nodded. "It really has."
Luo Wen smiled smugly. "Hmph, I knew it all along!"
I scratched my head. "By the way, Luo Bansian, can you help me check if this Peach Blossom Fate is a good thing or a bad thing?"
Luo Wen frowned slightly. "Well, it's hard to say. But..."
"But what?"
Luo Wen said mysteriously, "If you end up with her, then your later years will be filled with success."
"Is that true?"
"Absolutely! But..." Luo Wen dragged out the last word.
"But what?" I pressed.
Luo Wen became serious. "But if you end up with her, you'll only revolve around her for the rest of your life!"
"What do you mean?"
"Advance brings good fortune, retreat brings disaster," Luo Wen said earnestly. "In other words, you have to face this Peach Blossom Fate! You can't back down!"
"Oh, I see." I immediately felt deflated.
I had thought it was something good; turns out it was a hot potato.
Luo Wen noticed my mood. "What's wrong? Are you backing down?"
I scratched my head again. "Not really, it's just..."
Luo Wen waved her hand dismissively. "Alright, alright, I get it. How about this: before you go find her tonight, I'll perform a little ritual for you to ensure you're safe!"
"Is that for real?"
"Of course it's true!" Luo Wen said with a serious face. "Do you think I would lie to you?"
I nodded. "Then... I’ll leave it to you."
"Don't worry, my brother!" Luo Wen patted my shoulder. "I’ll definitely help you turn this crisis into a blessing!"
As he spoke, Luo Wen pulled out his phone to check the time.
"Wow, it's already eleven fifty-five. So, are we ready to go?"
I nodded. "Let's go."
Just as we reached the door, I suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Luo Wen asked.
I whispered, "Well, she asked to meet in the bathroom. Is that appropriate?"
Luo Wen couldn't help but laugh. "Hahaha! How can you still be so innocent? What era are we in? Why are you so nervous?!"
I scratched my head awkwardly.
Luo Wen patted my shoulder again. "Remember what I said! Moving forward brings good fortune; retreating brings disaster!"
I nodded.
The bathroom it is, at least there won't be too many people bothering us.
Besides, meeting Xu Chi in public isn’t suitable for either of us.
Looking at her figure and face, she would probably cause quite a stir as soon as she appeared.
Thinking this way, I felt a bit more relaxed.
The hour and minute hands on my wristwatch gradually aligned vertically.
My heart began to race again.
On the way to the business class carriage, I took a deep breath.
It's just a girl, right?
What’s there to be afraid of?
It’s just a matter of taking a nap!
After all, I won’t lose anything!
With that thought in mind, I stepped toward the business class compartment at the front of the train.
Luo Wen watched my retreating figure, a suggestive smile spreading across his face.
“Go for it, brother!”
I glanced back at him and nodded.
The business class compartment was sparsely populated, with only a few passengers from first and second class.
But then again, who would take a train at a time like this?
Driving is much faster, right?
Still, it was better this way; I wouldn’t be disturbed when I met Xu Chi.
With that thought, I slipped into the restroom.
To avoid affecting Xu Chi when he came in, I didn’t lock the door.
The mirror reflected my youthful face.
My Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
Damn it, I was so nervous.
