Early the next morning, Bai Yujing decided to head to gx to find Li Hao. Bai Yujing thought that if this was indeed a key left by the Merfolk, it might possess some special encryption that only their kind could decipher to obtain the true results. Bai Yujing wanted to take another look at Shuiyuan Village, as it held many things related to the Merfolk, and there were surely many insider details he was unaware of. Additionally, Li Hao and Lin Ruoqiao were also there.
With this in mind, Bai Yujing immediately set off with Center. He traveled light, carrying only a backpack, and took the high-speed train to gx. During this time, Li Hao had been staying there, and Bai Yujing wondered whether it was truly for his career or if this guy's obsession with girls had flared up again.
Since the two locations were very close, it didn't take long for him to arrive at his destination, Nanning. After getting off the train and queuing to pass through the exit, he suddenly felt something drop at his feet. Bai Yujing quickly swung his backpack in front of him and bent down to pick up his phone.
At that moment, a woman with big waves in her hair approached him. She was wearing a purple low-cut dress and flesh-colored stockings. As Bai Yujing picked up his phone, he seemed to catch a glimpse of something when he looked up, but it was fleeting. As the woman stood in front of him with her legs together, Bai Yujing snapped back to reality.
This was an incredibly charming woman; her delicate features combined with three-dimensional facial contours made her stand out. Her light blue eyes were as deep as the ocean, and she wore exquisite silver jewelry around her neck that seemed to draw one into the glimpse of white revealed by her low-cut outfit.
This was the same woman who had sat across from him on the train; many people in the carriage had been sneaking glances at her, including Bai Yujing himself. He wiped his phone with his sleeve and handed it over, saying, "Fortunately, it didn't break!"
"Thank you!" The woman said as she took the phone from Bai Yujing's hand and playfully squeezed his fingers just right, leaving him with a somewhat dreamy feeling. She was a woman full of allure.
"Can we get acquainted? Handsome! My name is Catherine!" The woman put her phone into her bag and extended her hand to introduce herself.
Bai Yujing shook her hand and replied, "Bai Yujing. Are you a foreigner? This is my first time meeting a foreigner who speaks Chinese so well!"
"I have a quarter Chinese ancestry, so I'm not really an outsider," Catherine said playfully while winking at Bai Yujing.
Bai Yujing chatted with Catherine while holding onto his backpack until they completed security checks. Afterward, they began to part ways. Just as they were leaving, Bai Yujing suddenly said.
"Catherine, I've always wanted to ask you something!" Bai Yujing shrugged.
Catherine smiled but felt secretly pleased; sure enough, here it came—was he asking for contact information? However, she maintained a calm smile on her face.
Bai Yujing hesitated for a moment before blurting out, "Aren't you cold dressed like that?"
"What?"
For some reason, Catherine stormed off angrily in the end. Bai Yujing was somewhat puzzled but immediately spotted Li Hao waiting for him after exiting the station. Li Hao was dressed sharply in a suit and tie and was chatting up a girl who looked decent while leaning against a Cadillac XLR parked at the exit.
When Bai Yujing walked up to Li Hao, Li Hao finally reacted: "Old Bai, you made it!"
Bai Yujing leaned against the railing and said, "It doesn't look like you're here to pick me up! Are you just bringing me along while trying to flirt?"
"Where are you? I'm here to pick up Yin Yin. There's not enough space, so just take a taxi later!" Li Hao said shamelessly.
"......"
Bai Yujing glanced at the two open-top cars and realized that this guy wasn't wrong. At that moment, a girl named Yin Yin shouted, "You are Bai Yujing!"
Bai Yujing was taken aback for a moment and looked at the girl named Yin Yin, "Who are you?"
Yin Yin immediately replied, "I'm your fan! I've been following you for a long time and even bought your book!"
Bai Yujing nodded, "Thank you for your support."
"Can you sign something for me?" Yin Yin looked very excited. Bai Yujing's looks and figure were top-notch, attracting a lot of attention wherever he went, not to mention his legendary experiences that immediately captured the girls' attention.
Bai Yujing quickly said, "Well, I didn't bring a pen!"
The girl immediately took out a notebook and a lipstick from her bag. "Just sign it here!"
Bai Yujing smiled as he wrote down his name and added a few words of blessing. After Yin Yin took back the notebook and pen, she wrote down a series of numbers on another piece of paper and stuffed it into Bai Yujing's hand, then hurriedly kissed him on the cheek.
Bai Yujing was caught off guard and froze for a moment. This girl was so bold! By the time he came to his senses, he saw Li Hao's resentful little eyes.
"Here, it's a gift for you!"
"I don't want it!"
On the way, Li Hao kept pouring out his dissatisfaction to Bai Yujing: "I’ve realized that walking with you is simply a form of harm to me. In the future, if you don't have anything important to do, please keep your distance from me!"
"Come on! Didn't I just attract all those buzzing bees away from you? Sacrificing myself to save you—there's no one else who would do that! You should appreciate it!" Bai Yujing thought Li Hao's mindset was very misguided and could easily lead him astray.
Li Hao spat at Bai Yujing: "Pfft!"
After the joke, Li Hao immediately asked, "Did you come here for something? I’m telling you, I've been really busy lately! I don’t have much time to hang out with you!"
Bai Yujing said, "It's nothing too important. I want to go to Shuiyuan Village again, and I might need your help with a small task!"
Li Hao immediately caught on, "No way, are you getting involved in that matter again?"
Bai Yujing hesitated for a moment but ultimately made up his mind, "Forget it, no need to be coy. I've been feeling restless lately, and I've already dug into this much. No matter the dangers ahead, I'm going for it. I've thought about it these past few days, and I find this matter very interesting. If I can pull it off, it will be a memory worth cherishing and bragging about for the rest of my life!"
While driving, Li Hao took a bag of betel nuts from the glove compartment and tossed one to Bai Yujing. "Cats have nine lives; curiosity can get them killed. Can you handle this?"
Bai Yujing caught it, "What's wrong with me? Do you know about the Night Guard of Ten Maidens?"
"Want to give it a try?"
"What? You want to see a live performance? I'm afraid you'll feel inferior!"
"Damn it, I really won't back down!"
Meanwhile, after Catherine exited the station, she immediately bumped into another short individual. "What's going on? Did you get the item?"
The short individual shook his head. "No way; he's very alert and keeps it close to him or within his line of sight. Just now when you went over to distract him, he held the backpack tightly in his arms, making it impossible to take action."
Catherine frowned and glanced at the short individual. "Forget it; let's think of another way!"
