”Nothing. I have done nothing! Look at you, in cloth and all, what could I have done to you?”
Zhou Sisi fumbled as she patted herself down out of instinct. She found nothing, although she wasn't sure what she was looking for. She glanced at Wang Tong’s innocent, watery eyes and then heaved a sigh of relief.
”I'm sorry, I can't remember what had happened last night.”
With his weary eyes, half closed, Wang Tong briefly described what had happened last night, omitting a few details here and there. ”The only thing that might have crossed the line was that I had touched your belly with my hand. I swear that was all. And I had no other options; you were on the verge of becoming deranged.”
Zhou Sisi's face turned pale and then flushed red. Wang Tong regretted immediately. ”I should have just told her that nothing had happened, only a fool would speak the truth,” Wang Tong thought.
Some girls were outgoing and open, and some were more reserved and shy, if not overly-sensitive when being approached by the opposite sex. Instinct told Wang Tong that Zhou Sisi was the latter; therefore, he was not entirely surprised when he saw Zhou Sisi raised her hand for a slap on Wang Tong face.
Perhaps what Wang Tong told her was true and nothing had happened, but it must have been a close call. Zhou Sisi could have guessed that much, with or without Wang Tong's confession.
Wang Tong conceded his fate; he gritted his teeth and narrowed the eyes while waiting for Zhou Sisi's slap to come.
He waited for a while but felt nothing on his face. He opened his eyes and saw Zhou Sisi had already lowered her hand. She bit down her lower lip and then spoke grudgingly, ”It's not your fault… But I hate you. I hate you!” Zhou Sisi stormed out, leaving Wang Tong sitting on the floor, mulling over the meaning of Zhou Sisi's confusing utterance.
”She said that it was not my fault, but why does she still hate me?” Wang Tong shook his head, unable to make sense of her logic. ”Women are more perplexing than Zergs, considering we spoke the same language,” he thought.
With the trouble out of his way, Wang Tong yawned loudly and quickly fell asleep again.
He didn't sleep long. While half asleep, he heard exciting screams outside of his room.
The morning news had just announced a shocking revelation. It might be good news for some people, but it would also break many hearts.
”Good morning everyone, our live studio had just received a shocking story: The son of General Hu Ben had passed his second mind opening operation, meaning that he will now be even stronger than if he had succeeded the first time. While everyone still guessed just exactly how powerful he is, he had just announced yet another news regarding his choice of school. Our reporter had just told us that he had officially accepted an offer from Ayrlarng Academy and will be attending Ayrlarng in a few day!”
The news went on to introduce Ayrlarng Academy, the once legendary military academy that had been forgotten.
The girls of Ayrlarng Academy were ecstatic: first came Hu Yangxuan, who was polite, gentle, and romantic, then came Wang Ben, who was wild, dangerous, and sexy. Unable to contain their fit of euphoria, the girls screamed Wang Ben's name at the top of their lungs.
With Ma Xiaoru, Hu Yangxuan, and Wang Ben joining its ranks, Ayrlarng had finally resurfaced into public's view. But no one could ignore the elephant in the room: ”Why did Wang Ben choose Ayrlarng?” Regardless of the answer, what was done had been done.
Samantha hung up the phone. It was Martyrus. Apparently, even the old fox didn't anticipate Samantha's unexpected gain. ”The old fox is finally becoming concerned,” Samantha thought. She wagered that with Wang Ben joining her team, she could theoretically win the tournament. However, ”theoretically” also meant that it was just as risky as before.
Samantha didn't let the good news lower her guard. Even with the all-star roster: Ma Xiaoru, Hu Yangxuan, and Wang Ben, she was still wary of the outcome of the fourth and fifth match. ”What if Martyrus has a secret weapon just like I have Wang Tong?” Samantha pondered, calculating all the possibilities meticulously.
Wang Tong rubbed his dark eyes and reluctantly got out of his bed. He wondered if Wang Ben's arrival would make his mundane school life more interesting.
