Chapter 26 Chapter 26. Return
As I thought, it was Li Ziyu’s doing.
No wonder the Bai family was able to take me away so smoothly.
After getting the answer I wanted, I pushed open the toilet door without saying a word. I went to the sink beside them and turned on the tap.
During this time, I didn’t forget to provoke them.
“Everyone, where’s the gossip?”
Those who usually didn’t get along with me were listening to Li Ziyu’s bragging wholeheartedly. They were all annoyed when they were suddenly interrupted.
One of the more irritable ones turned around and said irritatedly, “Who asked you to meddle in our business?”
Before he could say the word ‘business,’ he saw my face and stopped in shock.
As I spoke, I washed my hands. I had been in contact with the Bai family for a long time, so I had to wash my hands to avoid being
contaminated with bad luck.
The sound of the water flowing was undeniable.
“Continue.” I turned off the tap and casually said, “I was quite amused just now. If you guys don’t continue chatting, I’ll be bored.”
With just a few words, the originally noisy bathroom instantly became silent.
After a long time, Li Ziyu calmed down and said firmly, “Luo Li, you’re not in school. Did you take a leave of absence to do something? Have you finished your business?”
Li Ziyu asked the obvious.
I didn’t intend to let him put on an act and was ready to expose him, so I said without mercy, “Li Ziyu, don’t play dumb. You know that I was kidnapped.
A thousand-year-old fox, why are you playing with me?
You even know who the kidnappers are, so why are you still acting in front of me? Do you think I’m like you, with a water-filled brain?”
My cold attitude made Li Ziyu’s expression change.
The smile on his face froze, and the corners of his mouth began to twitch. It was ridiculous to see him like this.
“Luo Li, how did you escape? You begged Bai Yan, didn’t you? You must have betrayed your dignity to beg for forgiveness from the Bai family.
You’re now a dog tamed by the Bai family, right?”
Li Ziyu revealed his true colors, and there was even anticipation in his eyes.
I could roughly understand his feelings.
After I escaped from the Bai family if the matter of my kidnapping spread or if I insisted on an explanation, the Bai family would never let Bai Yan take responsibility.
And Li Ziyu, who had passed on the news, was the best scapegoat.
He was afraid.
He’s afraid he’ll have to spend the rest of his
life in prison because of me.
“Can you guess?”
I didn’t give a direct answer and just gave a
vague answer.
Li Ziyu’s eyes were wide open, and there was anger in his eyes. “Luo Li!”
He roared my name.
However, I was too lazy to give him a look. I only rubbed the space between my eyebrows and didn’t even look at him. “Your father is here. If you have something to say, say it
quickly.
Oh, right, there’s something I didn’t tell you.”
I approached Li Ziyu’s position, and when the distance between us was less than half a
meter, I stopped and looked at him with burning eyes.
“Do you still remember what I told you before? I’m carrying a paper-knife with me now. I’ll kill you if you try to trick me.
My voice was dark, and I narrowed my eyes dangerously.

…
Li Ziyu swallowed his saliva and retreated
silently.
The arrogant look he had just now was
completely gone, and his face changed exceptionally quickly.
Thus, I patted his shoulder lightly.
“Good luck,” After that, I turned to leave the toilet.
I strolled, and when I reached the door, I heard a commotion behind me. “Brother Ziyu! Are you alright?”
“Quickly get up; what’s wrong with you? Why should you be afraid of him?”
The Bai family is only temporarily forgiving him. In the end, he will still pay the price.
“Brother Ziyu, don’t be afraid. Young master Bai Yan is your backing.”
“I hate his arrogant look. He’s going to fail
sooner or later.”
“I
…
I curiously
turned my head to look.
It turned out that Li Ziyu was sitting on the
ground, his eyes listless.
He was pathetic.
…
There were still 20 minutes left before the
mathematics class started. It was enough time to return to the dormitory to get my books and rush to the classroom.
I’ve already missed enough classes; I can’t continue to delay.
When I returned, the dormitory was empty. They were probably all in the classroom.
I took my books and walked to the teaching
building. There were still ten minutes before the official start of the class.
“Hey, Li Fei, why isn’t Luo Li back yet? Was
he kidnapped?”
Just as I reached the classroom door, I suddenly heard my name.
I stopped in my tracks and listened.
“My ass!” Li Fei was the one who spoke.
“You’re the one who was kidnapped! He just
went out to do something, don’t make wild guesses.”
As soon as he finished speaking, many people started to refute him.
“Tsk… We don’t believe you. You’re just lying
to yourself.
“I have heard that Luo Li was indeed
kidnapped.” “That’s right. My friend said that he went to
pick up a delivery three days ago. He wanted
to say hello to Luo Li when he saw him, but
who knew that he would see him being taken away.”
“If this isn’t kidnapping, then what is it?” “Are we not going to do anything about this?”
“What do you care? Didn’t you see that the teacher didn’t even ask why Luo Li wasn’t here? The force behind the kidnappers must be powerful.”
“It’s the Bai family. Luo Li even provoked Bai
Yan.”
“I don’t dare to guess, but I’d better not
provoke Bai Yan in the future.”
…
“I
They all had their guesses.
As for the suspect who kidnapped me, they were almost sure that it was Bai Yan. After all, they know well the conflict between
Bai Yan and me. “They’re going too far.” Li Fei, who had
always been calm, was suppressing his anger in his voice.
On the contrary, Shen Fang, who was usually
noisy, did not say a word as if he was thinking about something. However, he looked lonely, probably because
he thought the Bai family had already harmed
me.
Suddenly.
“Ring! Ring! Ring!”
The bell for class rang. The Math teacher, who
was usually late by a few seconds, also walked
toward the classroom in her high heels.
“Student, why aren’t you going to class?” She patted my shoulder from behind. I returned to my senses and realized that a
long time had passed. “Teacher, I’ll go to the classroom now.”
As I spoke, I turned to face my math teacher.
The teacher’s expression was no longer calm. When she saw it was me, she opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn’t know what to say.
A teacher would have more information than
a student. She couldn’t say that she knew I was kidnapped by the Bai family and
remained unmoved.
“Go to class since you’re back,” she said after
a while.
The Math teacher looked very calm, but after
she finished speaking, she took a turn and went to the classroom.
It was likely that there was already a storm in
her heart.
I’m the only one who can return from the Bai
family.
“Can you guess what happened to Luo Li?
with Bai Yan’s personality, he’ll torture him to death.”
“Quiet down!”
When the Math teacher went in, some students were still quietly discussing. It wasn’t until the teacher put the textbook on
the table and reminded them that they were utterly silent.
In silence, I calmly walked into the classroom.
“???”
“Luo Li?”
As soon as he arrived in the classroom, he was greeted by gazes from all directions.
