The next day, Lin Huai thoughtfully made Li Liner some delicious breakfast. However, their breakfast was also their brunch because they usually woke up late. Considering the ‘exhausting business’ they had last night, Lin Huai prepared a hearty breakfast for Li Liner to help get her strength back up. Then, he picked at the food, shortly before he set off for the rendezvous.Now that they knew Lin Huai’s identity, everyone in the restaurant who saw him addressed him as ‘Brother Huai’. Lin Huai made his way to the room, where it was already full of people. He then embarrassedly said, “I’m sorry for being late.”Thunder God waved at him in response. “Sit down. You’re not late. It’s just us who came earlier.” Lin Huai did as told and sat furthest away from the center. After all, he was still the novice among the five red canes, despite having moved up the rank following Gong Zhenglong’s death. Besides Thunder God himself, there were a few veterans present in the

“Err…” Lin Huai said with an awkward smile, “You’re jealous, aren’t you?”“Oh come on, I already knew what’s going on when I first saw her.” Wei Qimian snorted and continued to add in a complacent manner, “Anyway, I don’t blame you. After all, she owes you her life, and for that, I bet she wants to repay her debt by committing herself to you. Am I right?” Lin Huai was rendered speechless by Wei Qimian’s accurate guess, and his guilty conscience started to haunt him.“Well, I’m not surprised if she thinks that way. Furthermore, I can’t blame her because you two are living under the same roof. You might not have had a thing for her at first, but as time went by, it’s hard to say whether you can still hold yourself against the temptation. I understand men have ‘needs’. After all, I’ve seen a lot of playboys among those whom I hang around with. Compared to them, you’re a lot better.”“Mianmian, you’re my only girlfriend,” Lin Huai guiltily said.

Amidst the loud cheers of excitement, many hands were seen raised up in the air. Some were even bouncing up and down, while shouting ‘me’. Wei Qimian turned to look at Lin Huai, and raised his hand up. Lin Huai was tempted to give a shot, but he didn’t put up his hand due to his concern for Wei Qimian’s feelings. Therefore, seeing what his girlfriend just did, he curiously asked, “What’re you doing?”“I’m a lady, and you don’t expect me to go up onstage and perform, do you? So, raise up your hand, gentleman!” Wei Qimian said with a smile.“Err…”“Relax, I won’t get jealous. She is a big star, not like those random girls whom you hit on. So, get yourself up there, and don’t forget to get me her autograph.”“Okay, but there are so many people here. So, I can’t guarantee I’m going to stand a chance.” Lin Huai did as Wei Qimian told him and raised his hand. Although he felt like there was only a slim chance he would get chosen, he was

Knowing Lin Huai, Wei Qimian was certain that her boyfriend didn’t mean flirting with the singer. However, the serious look on Lin Huai’s face worried her. She felt an urge to ask him more questions, but was soon held back by the fear of wasting Lin Huai’s time. Therefore, she nodded and said, “Alright, we’ll get back to your apartment. Tell us what is happening when you get back.”“Alright,” Lin Huai replied in agreement and raced in the direction of the stage. He then saw Wang Jiarui’s agent along the way, whom he knew could take him backstage. However, Lin Huai had to first make it through the crowd that was packed like sardines. Fortunately, he managed to squeeze through and made his way to the lady whom he worriedly asked, “Miss Zhou, please take me to Wang Jiarui.”“Oh,” Zhou Ranran was a little surprised to see Lin Huai. She soon asked with a smile, “Did you just change your mind to join our company?”“No,” Lin Huai anxiously answered, “

Lin Huai proceeded to tell the ladies what he had just dealt with in a serious tone, “If I hadn’t been there any sooner, you ladies wouldn’t have been able to see Wang Jiarui ever again. The assassin’s needle was poisonous, and only bleeding could save one from dying. However, I doubt anyone else on the spot was capable of doing that.”The ladies shuddered at Lin Huai’s story. Soon, Song Tingting, who was shocked by the assassination attempt, asked, “How did you know there was an assassin?”“Would you believe me if I said it was a hunch?” Lin Huai smiled and replied, which Song Tingting didn’t seem to buy.“Actually, this is also my gift. If I hadn’t been so alert, I wouldn’t have been able to be the big boss in Yulan College. Instead, my enemies would have succeeded and done me in. At that moment, I just had a hunch that Wang Jiarui would be in danger, yet I couldn’t tell where the danger was coming from. So, I decided to rush to the back of t
