Book 2: Chapter 4: Alcohol and games

Ruan Zhan already felt a chill down his back before he saw Xiao Xia enter. This was because Yue Xiao Xia equaled trouble, and he was most afraid of trouble.

Bloody Mary. Xiao Xia acted like a new customer as she spoke seriously to Ruan Zhan. Ruan Zhan had no choice but to put on his usual gentle expression and elegant smile. She was a customer. It wasnt like he could kick her out.

Sis Xiao Xia! Ni Yang greeted with a loud voice.

Youre also very close with this young man! The woman next to her was sour.

Its because were close that theres no chance of anything happening between us. Keep doing your best. Xiao Xia spouted some nonsense. Boss, let me borrow your servers for a chat. Send the alcohol over later. She knocked on the bar a few times and pulled the two people to sit by the corner while it wasnt too busy yet. She acted as if all the murderous gazes, including that of the hypocritical boss, were disinfectant rays.

Ive helped you guys get some time off. To repay me, you should tell me about that girl.

Shes called Qian Li. She was closer to Liu Tie so he should be the one to say it. Ni Yan said. Ill go entertain the customers. I cant bully the boss along with sis Xiao Xia.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Xiao Xia rolled her eyes at him and then turned to Liu Tie.

Alright. Liu Tie sighed. He was shocked and upset about Qian Lis death, even though he wasnt interested in her like that. What should I talk about?

Anything, as long as its the truth.

Actually, there isnt much to say. Shes an ordinary student. Shes more quiet and graceful, and normally doesnt like to stand out.

Did this matter stand out?

Of course! Everyone knows how scary Bloody Mary is. Ever since last semester, this game had been spreading around the school but no one had dared to try it. The first person to do so would naturally stand out.

Goodness! Xiao Xia was rueful. Society is really progressing fast these days. Just a few years is enough to leave a generation gap. When I was in college, there werent any such games. Girls these days! Arent they scared?

What proof can there be with such supernatural things? These are all legends. At most, such proof would be hearsay.

Did you say evil red eyes earlier? Xiao Xia recalled something Liu Tie mentioned and thought about her vision in front of the mirror. She felt chills down her back. This meant that the girls at T. University had awful luck and managed to summon it right away? And it was lingering around, refusing to return?

Whats wrong? Liu Tie saw Xiao Xias expression was strange and couldnt help but ask.

Nothing! Xiao Xia brushed over it. Im just timid and got a little scared.

Then you shouldnt get involved in our schools case.

Im just acting as your schools consultant. She also wanted to give up on it, but wondered whether it would have the opposite effect. Every time she tried to get away from something, she would get pulled in further.

Was this fate messing with her? Who could fight against fate!?

That girl was called Qian Li, right? If she was such a quiet and introverted girl, why would she be the first to play this game? Did you hear any relevant rumors?

Rumors? The rumors are all from other classmates. Its said the girls in her dorm room have all fallen ill from the fright. They all went home on sick leave the next day so there are no primary sources left. However Liu Tie hesitated, suddenly recalling something. Ive previously heard Qian Li played this game because of a bet with another student.

With whom?

This I dont know. Perhaps I can go ask around for sis Xiao Xia.

That would be great. Xiao Xia was very happy. This was a huge potential clue into Qian Lis motivation. Whether or not you manage to help, Ill treat you to a meal.

I also want to go. Ni Yang suddenly appeared and said.

No problem. But you must also act as my spy. Xiao Xia felt there wasnt anything left to ask, and thus left after saying her farewells to the two. Before leaving, she didnt forget to get both of their numbers to make it convenient to communicate. However, she completely forgot to thank Ruan Zhan who had helped her a ton last time, making her appear extremely unconscientious. Ruan Zhan didnt care about that. What he cared about was that for some reason, his mind was still unsettled after she left.
