Bai Lian Hua gazed at the computer screen that had not displayed any signs of life for a long time, internally feeling very upset.
God…what is wrong with your temper?! Why did you take it out on such an expensive computer?! Look at what happened! Games? As if you can play those now! Just wash up and go to sleep!
Bai Lian Hua viciously TA TA TA TA attacked his keyboard trying to vent the rage that had accumulated within him — FUCK his mother!
Coincidentally, just as he was about to take his anger out on his broken computer again, his cousin, who he had not contacted in a long time, called.
Bai Lian Hua’s cousin Bai Qingyu….In Bai Lian Hua’s memories was a strange person. Especially when you see him in person – his smile just seems so dark and dangerous! Despite the fact that they attend universities in the same city and are even related by blood, the number of times they had contacted each other could be counted on one hand!
Bai Lian Hua~
The voice of the individual on the opposite end sounded frivolous and light as if standing on cotton.
How about coming tonight to have dinner?
I… well ok.
Bai Lian Hua almost blurted out the words
I don’t have time
but he held them back.
Where is it at?
Bai Qingyi seemingly sank into thought for a moment then leisurely said,
‘Maksim Dining Room’? I will pick you up when I arrive.
Bai Lian Hua almost dropped his phone in shock. Maksim Dining Room is a famous western cuisine restaurant located in B city where the cheapest item costed two thousand! Two thousand! If you converted it – it’s one month of his living expenses!—-In summary, I really hate these rich second generations!
Having relatives who are rich is not necessarily a good thing. The richer and more well off you are, the more distant your relationship becomes. Rich families will always feel that their relatives will have requests to make while those without money are afraid that the rich would misunderstand……And so, even Bai Lian Hua felt this kind of inexplicable sense of alienation. Even if they shared the same blood, a wild peony and a Luoyang peony are on two very different scales.
However, relatives are still relatives and so Bai Lian Hua couldn’t refuse the request. He reluctantly opened his suitcase to find some decent clothes.
Lian Hia?
Seeing Bai Lian Hua’s unusual actions, Chu Zhongtian felt suspicious.
What are you doing?
Bai Lian Hua looked up sullenly:
My cousin asked me out to eat…
That’s great!
Chu Zhongtian slapped his thigh and made a decision.
Where is it? Which food stall?? Take me with you?
Bai Lian Hua licked his mouth and replied blankly:
‘Maksim Dining Room.
…Go well
Chu Zhongtian slowly said after hesitating for a long time.
As it is summer and the temperature had been very high recently, Bai Lian Hua pondered for a long time as he tried to pick out an appropriate attire. He pulled out a pale blue suit that he had bought from the last seasons sale and then wore a t shirt under it. He then found a pair of washed out jeans and paired them with a pair of sneakers.
Very good.
Thought Bai Lian Hua as he adjusted his tie around his neck.
After he got ready, he leaned against the wall playing on his phone and waited for his cousin to contact him.
At about 4 pm, Bai Lian Hua finally received the long awaited phone call from his cousin!
Hey Lian Hua? I am waiting for you downstairs.
He finally came – Bai Lian Hua placed his phone in his pocket and, ignoring the inquisitive eyes of Chu Zhongtian, proceeded to trot down the stairs.
As soon as he walked out of the dormitory building, the sparkling sports car blinded Bai Lian Hua’s eyes. His close yet not very close cousin stood beside car attracting the attention from onlookers. Bai Qingyi….such an arrogant appearance and such an arrogant sports car….if he didn’t catch the attention of others then that would be strange!
Bai Lian Hua took a deep breath and raised his lips into what he thought was a perfect smile:
Cousin… Good afternoon.
He didn’t realise how hideous his smile looked in the eyes of others.
Bai Lian Hua could clearly see the corners of his cousin’s mouth twitching. After a while, Bai Qingyi responded:
Un….afternoon
. After a pause, he continued,
Lian hua….your outfit today….
Very… passionate.
These two words were eventually spat out by Bai Qingyu.
Bai Lian Hua is naturally not stupid enough to think that this was praise. Not knowing whether it is because he is embarrassed or because it was hot, Bai Lian Hua’s face gradually became red – as if two red roses had blossomed on his cheeks.
Bai Qingyu faced him and smiled slightly:
Lian Hua, get in the car. It’s only four o’clock, let’s go shopping first? Uh huh?~
It was clearly spoken with a tone of inquiry yet there was an unspeakable force to it that one could not resist and reject…
Bai Lian Hua nodded and sat stiffly in the passenger seat. After ensuring that Bai Lian Hua was fixed with a seat belt, Bai Qingyi stepped onto the gas pedal. The engine made a subtle roar, the tires moved, and they drove off the campus.
The inside of the car was too quiet. The music that the radio automatically played is almost the only sound that could be heard. Bai Lian Hua carefully watched his cousin through the corners of his eyes but quickly looked back ahead when Bai Qingyi turned his head and looked at him.
Lian Hua.
Oh… ah?
Bai Lian Hua showed a confused expression.
There is still half an hour to go. You can go to the back seat and play on the laptop there.
Bai Qingyi sighed in the bottom of his heart. Even though they are brothers, every time they interacted it was like interaction between a superior class and a lower class person.
Bai Lian Hua nodded. Although the car had not come to a complete stop, he had already unbuckled his seat belt and hopped off the car; as if he was a prey escaping a lion den. Bai Qingyi, for a second, felt ridiculed.
Bai Lian Hua sat in the back seat, turned on the computer and found that the computer required a password. After debating for two seconds, Bai Lian Hua weakly asked:
Cousin… What is your computer password?
90011011.
Bai Lian Hua typed out the string of numbers and successfully logged onto the computer.
He had originally only wanted to go on penguin for a while and play QQ Fight the Landlord but he unexpectedly found the game icon of
Shenzhou ShenLu
sitting on the desktop. It was an unexpected harvest.
He smoothly logged into his account and just when he logged in, he surprisingly received a private chat notice – and not just one!
[Private chat] Chu Zhongtian: Lotus sister! Protect your chrysanthemum!!!
[Private chat] Roommate: Fck! Where did you die off to White Lotus?! I found the hacker! Quickly come and PA PA PA him!
[Private chat] Great God: White Lotus, where are studying?
Directly ignoring the first one, Bai Lian Hua hesitated over the latter two and instinctively opened the private chat with Great God.
[Private chat] White Lotus: Great God, I am studying in B city.
[Private chat] Great God: Elementary school, Junior high school, High school or University (KKnote: elementary school?! Why would even you ask that Great God!)
[Private chat] White Lotus: University
[Private chat] Great God: Which university?
Great God is checking my details? Is he interested in me? … Bai Lian Hua stiffened up and immediately tossed that stupid idea aside.
[Private chat] White Lotus: A University.
[Private chat] Great God: Oh
After that, the Great God did not speak. Bai Lian Hua patiently waited for two minutes and then changed the private chat to the other person.
[Private chat] White Lotus: Who is the hacker?
[Private chat] roommate: Yu Yun. Do you know him?
[Private chat] White Lotus: Who?
[Private chat] Roommate: His reputation in the hacker world is equivalent to the
Great God
in your online game industry.
[Private chat] White Lotus: Why did he hack me?
[Private chat] Roommate: Who knows!
[Private chat] Great God: A University right? I just submitted an application to enrol to A university.
[Private chat] White Lotus: !!!!!
[Private chat] Great God: ?
[Private chat] White Lotus: Great God… You… What do you mean?
[Private chat] Great God: After completing the college entrance examination, I haven’t filled in my university preferences. My parents wanted me to go to Cambridge but I didn’t want to go abroad.
[Private chat] White Lotus: Great God… How old are you?
[Private chat] Great God: There is still a month until I turn 18
[Private chat] White Lotus: ………
Bai Lian Hua was shocked!!! Your mom, the Great God is not even fully 18?!! Then wasn’t his actions earlier…hooking up an minor? No wait. What kind of nonsense am I spouting?! Bai Lian Huan felt as if his brain had crashed. If this was happening to that no good fan of Great God, Hundred Days Red, then it wouldn’t just be his brain crashing…I’m afraid his brain may actually die from the shock!
[Private chat] Great God: Please take care of me in the future White Lotus Senior.
