The two sat down in a small cafe nearby.

Lou Youran picked up the coffee spoon and stirred it, his eyes narrowed. "I didn't expect you to finish the test so quickly, Yijue."

"Now that there are only two of us, is there any need to pretend?" Chu Yizi curled his lips and looked at her calmly.

The air conditioning in the cafe was turned up a bit too high, and a cold breeze blew into my hair.

The curve of Lou Youran's mouth widened a little, "You've changed, squeak."

Looking at her bright and fair face, Chu Yizi's eyes flashed with obvious sarcasm.

In the initial consciousness of his life, the most memories he had were of Jing Nan.

Everything was doomed from the moment he saw her dead body at the age of twelve.

He held the coffee spoon, his hands shaking uncontrollably, and his throat was so dry that he couldn't speak.

After a long pause, he asked, "Who are you?"

Lou Youran smiled as gently as ever, "Squeak."

"We grew up together, who do you think I am?"

Chu Yizi clenched his tense hands into fists and smiled, his smile revealing a deadly calmness.

Lou Youran's gaze drifted gently from his hand. "Zhizhi, have you read the letter I sent you?"

Chu Yizi: "Shut up."

Lou Youran laughed softly, her laughter was like a bell in the wind, refreshing and clean.

"I know you blame me for leaving without saying goodbye."

"You said that no matter when or where, we will always be the closest people."

She took out a rape flower from her bag. The flower was in full bloom, with small and delicate petals and a light and friendly scent.

"Look, the flowers are about to bloom again. I also told you that I would come back to find you."

Chu Yizi stared at her for a long time.

Jing Nan's figure occupied his entire childhood. She was not only his sister who depended on him for everything, but also all his hopes for kindness and emotion.

But these are all fake.

In a trance, everything had already revealed its clues.

He looked at the star-speckled flower, then the next moment, he snatched it and crushed it, his eyes smiling coldly, "Who are you? What's your relationship with Feng Mulin, the interstellar world, and the system world?"

Lou Youran wasn't surprised. She slowly took out another flower and carefully fiddled with the petals with her eyelashes drooping. "Of course I'm the me you know, from the beginning to the end."

"As for Feng Mulin..." She raised her head, her slightly hooked eyes staring at Chu Yizi without blinking, "You've heard that he's my fiancé."

-

Outside the examination room.

"Huo Yijue! Where did you go just now?" Seeing Chu Yizi coming back, Fang Mulin strode forward anxiously.

Someone told him that Chu Yizi and Lou Youran went out together.

Chu Yizi said nothing, but looked at him with complicated eyes.

There were other students coming out of the examination room looking over here, and some were calling out to them from afar, but Chu Yizi seemed not to hear them.

He pulled Fang Mulin's arm and pulled him behind an empty tree while the other party was confused.

Fang Mulin sensed that something was wrong with his mood, and after hesitating several times, he asked, "What on earth..."

Having said this, Fang Mulin suddenly froze, and Chu Yizi hugged him.

He wanted to ask if Lou Youran had spoken to him just now.

I also want to ask him if he likes Lou Youran.

The warm body temperature of the person in his arms came over little by little, so hot that it seemed to melt him. Fang Mulin's mind went blank, and his whole body seemed not to belong to him.

After a long time, he raised one arm, and his palm stopped above Chu Yizi's shoulder. Just as he was about to gently drop it, his arms suddenly felt empty.

Fang Mulin withdrew his hand in shock.

For a moment, he seemed to see the true soul beneath the skin of "Huo Yijue".

Blurred, pure and dazzling.

"Silly?"

Seeing that he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, Chu Yizi couldn't help but raise his hand to touch his forehead.

Just one second after the finger touched his forehead, Fang Mulin reacted quickly as if he had been electrocuted and took a big step back.

This familiar scene made Chu Yizi pause.

Fang Mulin walked away from him and circled the tree several times. After his mind and consciousness finally returned to normal, he returned as if nothing had happened. "What did Lou Youran say to you?"

Chu Yizi said slowly, "I didn't say anything, but I suddenly remembered that we are from the same hometown, so I spoke some local dialect."

Fang Mulin looked hesitant. "Really? Then why did you suddenly... hug me?"

Chu Yizi's expression was meaningful. "Oh, I suddenly realized that you are very... cute."

"I'm... cute?"

Fang Mulin, who had felt something was wrong, grabbed his hair in disgust when he heard this.

He's cute? What about him even fits that description? Does Huo Yijue even know how to use words?

But... Huo Yijue actually thought he was cute...

No one has ever said that he is cute. Could it be that... Huo Yijue treats him...

Thinking of this, Fang Mulin immediately came to his senses and tried to change the subject to calm his mind. "Then you and Lou Youran—"

"Fang Mulin! Huo Yijue!"

Qin Shaoxi ran over breathlessly, "What are you two doing hiding here? I called you so many times but you ignored me."

Fang Mulin was about to pull Chu Yizi away, but he found that Chu Yizi had already walked towards Qin Shaoxi. "Nothing, just checking the answers."

Qin Shaoxi immediately shifted his attention, "Answer? Oh, I was just about to talk to you about it. I'll tell you..."

Several people took the school-arranged car back to Beijing North High School, but Lou Youran was missing on the way back.

Ji Huichen did not have time to participate in this competition. The main reason was that Chu Yizi found him too annoying some time ago and caused some trouble for the Ji family.

This little trouble is a small matter for Chu Yizi, but it is the lifeline of the Ji family. Not only can he not cause trouble for Chu Yizi, but even his relationship with Xuan Wang cannot continue to develop.

After the competition, students from Beijing North High School suddenly discovered something strange:

The previous few college geniuses in the school have all taken long vacations.

The specific list is: Fang Mulin, Huo Yijue, Lou Youran, and Ji Huichen.

The rumors about the Silver Beads brand on the Internet have only increased, and there are all kinds of rumors in school, but the only thing that cannot be denied is that Huo Yijue is indeed a genius.

People are always particularly tolerant of geniuses.

At the same time, shocking news broke out in the financial circle of Jingyun City.

LY Finance and several companies controlled by financial giant LY suddenly began to sell off Li Group stocks on a large scale.

As an old investment bank with a ten-year track record, LY's boss became famous in one battle at that time, and later he accurately grasped the wind direction, attracting many investors to follow.

This news caused quite a stir in the circle.

Many people began to inquire about the inside story of the Li Group. Some did not take it seriously, some remained on the sidelines, and some actively followed.

And just a few days after this incident, even more heavy-hitting revelations completely ignited public opinion -

The chairman of the Li Group was suddenly exposed to be involved in a number of gray industries such as hiring murder, bribery, and human organ trafficking. The various accounting and data falsification problems within the group were shocking.

As soon as the news broke, it was quickly forwarded by many parties. The Li Group's stock price plummeted. After many rescue measures failed, the former local tycoon declared bankruptcy in just half a year.

In the end, the once glorious Li Group was acquired by a company called "Ftwo".

No one knows who the boss behind this company is, and only a few people guess that it has some connection with the Fang family.
