Chapter 292 – Great God, I heard you’re going to travel a thousand li to deliver (26)
The ‘boy’s features were simply too exquisite. As she turned her head slightly in the sunlight, the sight left the Senior Sister delivering the message stunned for a few seconds. It wasn’t until the Senior Sister noticed the faint smile at the corner of Yan Luo’s lips that the Senior Sister felt a little embarrassed and looked away.
Still, the Senior Sister couldn’t help but remind Yan Luo, “She’s this year’s campus belle from the freshman class, but judging by how aggressively she’s coming this way, it doesn’t seem like she’s here for anything good. She even brought a group of ‘escorts’ with her. Be careful, Junior Brother. Should we inform the professor first?”
Campus belle from the freshman class?
A trace of confusion flashed through Yan Luo’s eyes as he tilted his head.
—Who?
“I think her name is Yan Yuqi,” the Senior Sister said after a moment of thought, noticing Yan Luo’s blank expression.
At the mention of that name, Yan Luo immediately remembered.
Wasn’t that the original owner’s so-called ‘younger sister’? The first daughter of Yang Si and Yan Yuxu?
What was she doing here?
“It’s fine, Senior Sister. I’ll go take a look.” Yan Luo casually rolled up the sleeves of her lab coat. Suddenly, a sharp pain pulsed in his lower abdomen, causing his brows to furrow slightly. He gave the senior sister a nod before heading out.
“Alright, just be careful.” The Senior Sister watched Yan Luo’s retreating figure with slight concern. She recalled the arrogance on that freshman girl’s face earlier. The girl was undeniably beautiful, but the malice in her eyes ruined the charm.
After hesitating for a moment, she picked up her phone and dialed a number. The call rang twice before being answered. “Hello, Professor…”
The moment Yan Luo stepped out of the door, he saw a girl standing there in an off-shoulder top and denim shorts, exuding an aggressive aura. Behind her stood three or four male students, their postures tense.
Yan Luo raised an eyebrow slightly and strode toward them.
Yan Yuqi immediately spotted Yan Luo the moment Yan Luo exited the lab. Normally, she never took someone like Yan Luo—an idle, good-for-nothing troublemaker—seriously.
But today, in this instant, the ‘boy’ seemed cloaked in golden sunlight, like a deity walking out of a painting. Her expression was indifferent, her features so refined that it made people hesitant to approach.
The words Yan Yuqi had prepared suddenly caught in her throat. She could only watch as Yan Luo approached, Yan Luo’s voice lazily hoarse as it reached her ears.
“You need something?”
Snapping back to her senses, she clenched her fist tightly around the cold water bottle in her hand. Remembering why she had come, she suddenly hurled the bottle’s icy contents at Yan Luo’s face.
Caught off guard, Yan Luo had no time to dodge.
Cold water drenched her hair instantly, leaving damp strands clinging messily to her face. Her bright, starry eyes darkened, turning into an abyss. Without hesitation, she grabbed Yan Yuqi’s wrist before Yan Yuqi could retract it.
Yan Luo’s expression was so terrifying that it sent a shiver down Yan Yuqi’s spine. The tightening grip on her wrist brought a sharp pain, making her involuntarily tremble.
“Are you out of your damn mind?” Yan Luo voice was slow but filled with barely contained fury, making Yan Yuqi’s pupils contract.
Instinctively, Yan Yuqi struggled to break free. Her sharp voice rang out, “Still pretending? Dropping the act now, huh? Playing the good student just to get your hands on the shares Dad gave you? And you even dare to bully my little brother?”
The situation escalated so quickly that the male students who had come with Yan Yuqi hadn’t even processed what was happening. Seeing that Yan Luo had already retaliated, they quickly moved to intervene.
“What are you guys doing?”
A stern voice rang out from a distance, startling the group. They turned their heads to see the lab professor approaching with a deep frown, striding quickly toward them.
