508 Do It For Yourself (2/2)

”Why? Should I bring comrades?” Her retort earned her a glare. ”Bad idea, I guess. But what do you mean?”

”Bring a date.”

”What?” Ying was baffled at his suggestion. ”Why?”

He knocked on her head as he questioned, ”Is this floor empty? Why are you so slow? Do you wish to become the laughingstock in front of your rival?”

”People can laugh all they want at my failed love,” replied Ying offhandedly.

”I'm not asking you to do it for others. Do this for yourself.” She narrowed her eyes at him but refused to continue this topic and it seemed like he wasn't intending to continue either as he began to complain, ”In the year I didn't see you, I finally grew out some hair. But here you're at it again. Can't you leave my hair alone? You're definitely gonna pull all my hair out one day.”

”I can also pull your tongue out if it's such a burden inside your mouth.”

He immediately sealed his mouth and refused to talk. He definitely wasn't someone who would take Ying's words lightly. If she said it, it won't take long for her to actually do it.

Meanwhile...

From the time Xiu had walked back inside, she had silently been staring into space. She was again lost in her own thoughts which Dylan definitely couldn't read. In fact, he barely even noticed that something was odd about her.

”Dylan!” she called out and when he looked at her, she beckoned him with her finger.

He scurried over to her side. ”Yes, Shifu!”

”Is Ying Jie very close with Zhou Jinhai?” Dylan was startled by her question as he slightly zoned out. ”Dylan! Dylan!” she had to shake him up. ”Be honest with me.”

He nodded his head after a long and deep breath. ”I think they were close.”

”You think?”

”As you might have noticed, I barely know anything about Ying Jie and Dazi only got familiar with her when he got into that accident. She was the one who helped him stand back up on his feet.” Xiu silently listened and didn't interrupt him. ”As for who sent Ying Jie to Dazi for help... I don't think I need to say his name out loud now.”

Seeing how silent Xiu was, he was apprehensive a little.

”I think you should ask Dazi for details on that matter.”

Xiu also nodded her head as she whispered, ”I indeed need to ask him.”
