OVTTGTBE Chapter 32

Forget it, it’s meaningless (Part 2)

Forget it, it’s meaningless (Part 2)

“I was just about to look for you.”

Being dragged into the alley by them, Bai Yao said in a low voice, “You’re quite proactive, coming to find me yourself.”

Liu Angran laughed heartily.

Although he no longer held the knife against Bai Yao’s neck, the tip of the knife was still pointed directly at Bai Yao’s chest. “As long as you cooperate obediently, we certainly won’t make things difficult for you. After all, you’re my ‘good’ brother’s classmate.”

After he said that, the others beside him echoed him, letting out a burst of snickers.

“You just want money, right?” Bai Yao also laughed. “Let me hear it. How much do you want?”

“I originally didn’t want to ask for too much from you.”

Liu Angran, holding the small knife, sized Bai Yao up and down. “But if I ask for too little, it would seem like your life as a young master isn’t worth much, wouldn’t it?”

Bai Yao didn’t say anything.

It was pitch black all around. Not to mention surveillance cameras, there wasn’t even a street lamp. These people had obviously scouted the place beforehand. Being cornered here, the stinging sensation on his neck couldn’t help but make him feel afraid.

How could he be so unlucky? How could he run into such a messed up thing?

“Three million. How about it? Not much for you, right?”

Liu Angran gestured for him to take out his phone. “I’ll tell you about an app. You download it now, and then you don’t have to worry about anything else. That app will directly transfer your money. I believe you, this young master with the supreme black card, definitely has enough credit.”

“If you dare to call the police afterward, it won’t be you who dies, but your good classmate—Liu Yucheng.”

Liu Angran said with a smile, “We’re all family. He’s been afraid of us since he was little. To kill him without anyone knowing would be too easy. When the time comes, I’ll post it online, and the rubberneckers will only think that you, this rich young master, killed your poor classmate.”

The next second, Bai Yao directly grabbed his blade with his hand.

“His life or death, what does it matter to me?”

After Bai Yao said that, he raised his foot and kicked towards Liu Angran’s abdomen.

This kick was merciless. Liu Angran staggered backward a few steps and sat down on the ground with a thud. When he came to his senses, he found that the small knife in his hand was already in Bai Yao’s hand.

“Damn it, get him!”

Someone shouted this sentence, and several people swarmed up and wrestled with Bai Yao.

The knife in Bai Yao’s hand fell, was snatched away, and he snatched it back. This happened repeatedly many times.

“Brother Liu! Don’t just sit there! Get up and help!” one of them shouted.

In the pitch-black alley, a few drops of blood dripped onto the cement floor. After a few seconds, the walls were stained with blood.

“Say it! How would you know about Cheng Tianyang’s things?! What’s your relationship with him?!”

During this time, Bai Yao was like a madman, roaring while pressing Liu Angran hard against the wall. The astonishing force in his hands scared Liu Angran so much that he wet his pants.

Isn’t this Bai Yao a pampered young master?

Where did he get so much strength? Wasn’t he just asking for some money? He must be crazy, wanting to die together with them.

“I , Brother Liu’s tooth just fell on the ground…!”

“Brother Liu is spitting blood! Save him!”

“Damn it, the knife has been snatched away by him again! This person fights like he doesn’t want to live!”

“Quick, help me hold Brother Liu up, let’s run!”

They were also shouting and yelling. Bai Yao had tinnitus, his head buzzing. His hand loosened, and Liu Angran was rescued by them.

These people ran far away, and the alley quickly became quiet.

Bai Yao could no longer stand. His legs trembled uncontrollably. Panting, he leaned against the wall and sat down. The blood-stained knife fell not far from his feet.

He slowly lowered his head. There were many knife marks on his jacket. The white hoodie inside was already stained red, and blood and his flesh were stuck together.

While he was still conscious, he used a lot of effort to pull out his phone from his pocket. The unstoppable blood in his palm quickly blurred his screen.

He called for an ambulance, persevering, and told them the location and his condition.

The desire to survive had never been so strong.

In order to stay awake, he wiped the blood on the phone screen with his sleeve while quickly flipping through the phone apps.

Although he didn’t have much strength left, he especially wanted to talk to someone at this time, even if it was a salesman.

Muscle memory, the phone screen stopped on Honey Peach Milk’s Wechat interface. The last message was still the voice call he hadn’t gotten through before.

Forget it, it’s meaningless.

He didn’t want to waste any more time. It was really meaningless.

He locked the phone screen and looked up at the sky above the alley.

The weather was actually very good tonight. The sky was very clean, and you could see a few stars in the distance, twinkling with faint light.

University life could obviously be very beautiful. His life was originally also very beautiful.

The bloody smell on his body made Bai Yao unable to resist wanting to vomit. Why did things turn out like this? Recently, he had been unhappy every day. When did this unhappiness start?

It was after getting to know Liu Yucheng. The feeling of gain and loss was really annoying.

The phone vibrated “woo woo” for a long time. Bai Yao thought the ambulance had arrived, but found it was a voice call from his mom.

“Hello? Dudu, are you asleep?”

“Mom just happened to be near your school and wanted to come see you. If you’re already asleep, then tomorrow…”

Hearing her voice, all the defenses in Bai Yao’s heart collapsed in that instant. He only felt his eyes heat up, and tears couldn’t stop falling. “Mom…”

“Huh? What’s wrong?”

“Why are you crying?”

“Mom…”

Bai Yao burst into tears on the phone. “Mom, I was wrong… I will listen to you from now on. I will definitely fight less in the future, and I will definitely bring bodyguards when I go out…”

“What happened?? Where are you now? Mom will go find you.”

…

It was after twelve o’clock in the middle of the night when Bai Junyi arrived at the alley Bai Yao mentioned. Bai Yao was already lying on a stretcher, and several paramedics were carrying him into the ambulance.

“Dudu!”

“Dudu, Mom is here!!”

Across the street, Bai Junyi vaguely saw the person lying on the stretcher through the car window, as well as the patches of dark red on his body.

She was like a madwoman. Before the car had even stopped, she opened the door and rushed out of the car. After kicking off her high heels in two steps, she ran barefoot towards the ambulance parked on the side of the road.

“President Bai, it’s very dangerous for you to rush out of the car like this!” Assistant Zhou couldn’t help but shout, and hurriedly parked the car on the side of the road.

“How did it turn out like this?! Who did it??” Bai Junyi screamed.

“Hello, may I ask who you are to him?” the emergency personnel asked.

“Who can I be to him? I’m his mother!”

In her grief, Bai Junyi became extremely irritable. “Get out of my way! I’m his mother, let me go see him!”

“Family member, please calm down.”

The paramedics blocked her outside the ambulance. “Don’t worry too much yet. We are currently stopping the bleeding for him. You need to wait a moment. He suffered a lot of external injuries, fortunately the wounds are not too deep. There is no immediate danger to his life, but he still needs to go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination.”

Bai Junyi couldn’t listen at all, and stretched her head hard to look into the ambulance. “Is he still conscious?? Dudu, Mom is here!”

“He’s conscious, his thinking is also very clear. He can’t speak for the time being… Family member, please calm down first, don’t rush into the car.”

The emergency personnel took out a form. “You will delay the treatment if you are like this. Please sign first, and then go to the hospital with us later.”

Assistant Zhou ran over and held her down. “President Bai, you will delay the rescue if you are like this.”

Bai Junyi finally calmed down with great difficulty.

A few minutes later, she finally got into the ambulance and saw Bai Yao.

Seeing the six knife scars on her son’s body, which were shocking, she shed tears of distress.

The last man who stalked her home and hurt her son, the grass on his grave should already be three meters high now. This time, no matter who it is, she will not be soft-hearted.

…

“Bai Yao?”

At the same time, Liu Yucheng hurried back to the dormitory. The dormitory was quiet and the lights were not turned on.

He quickly went into the bathroom to wash his hands, walked to Bai Yao’s bed, and put his hand into Bai Yao’s bed curtain.

Finally, he pulled open Bai Yao’s bed curtain. The bed was empty, and Bai Yao was really not there.

Liu Yucheng took out the half-broken phone from his pocket and dropped it on the table dejectedly.

He met his aunt a few days ago, and they had a dispute. During the process, his phone was smashed by his aunt and was completely scrapped. Although Bai Junyi reimbursed him, he hadn’t bothered to buy a new phone.

At this time, Bai Yao was not in the dormitory waiting for him to come back. Where did he go?

Two minutes later, Liu Yucheng left the dormitory again.

Let’s start looking from nearby KTVs and internet cafes first.

…

On Saturday evening, Bai Yao regained his spirits.

“Mom, you didn’t see it, you don’t know how handsome I was! I fought so many people by myself… hiss, ouch, my wounds hurt when I speak loudly.”

Bai Junyi sat aside and couldn’t help but glare at him: “I was scared to death by you, do you know that? Learn a lesson! You know the bodyguards on my side, pick anyone you want, pick as many as you want. You are not allowed to go out at night without a bodyguard, did you hear me?!”

Bai Yao had already thought about the bodyguard matter before falling asleep last night, and said: “I want those two sisters to come over, they just happen to be on early and late shifts.”

Anyway, the bodyguards on his mother’s side were all women. Bai Yao thought about it for a while. Since picking anyone was about the same, it would be better to pick two relatively younger ones, only five or six years older than him. Maybe they could chat about games and fitness topics.

“You mean Qianqian and Manman? Okay, I’ll let Xiao Zhou arrange it later and try to get them to come over in the next few days.”

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Junyi confessed: “Dudu, I’m sorry. It’s my responsibility that you were injured this time.”

“It was me who asked Xiao Zhou to give some of Cheng Tianyang’s information to that young man surnamed Liu. I didn’t expect his thoughts to be so crooked. I will never let this person go.”

This Saturday and Sunday, Bai Yao heard a lot of things from Bai Junyi, and also about a woman nicknamed Little Popsicle. Bai Junyi had never mentioned her before. She was Bai Junyi’s best friend in her student days; Bai Junyi also said that Little Popsicle studied ballet, she was slender, tall, and beautiful, and her ballet dancing was particularly good. At that time, at least half of the boys in the school had a crush on her.

After listening to what she said, Bai Yao patted his chest and said to her, “Mom, since you find it difficult to talk about Dad’s matter, I will investigate it myself. Trust me one more time, and this time it’s different, I have bodyguards now.” After this incident, Bai Junyi initially disagreed, but she was someone who responded to soft approaches better than hard ones, and couldn’t resist Bai Yao’s constant coaxing, so she reluctantly agreed.

On Monday night, it was snowing when Bai Yao was discharged from the hospital. It was rare to snow this season, but when Bai Yao stretched out his hand, a snowflake did fall into his palm.

Before getting into the car, he saw Liu Yucheng. Recalling the scene of the first snow last semester, Bai Yao felt that the most stupid person had always been himself. He still foolishly thought that the two of them could change something through online dating.

Liu Yucheng was in the mobile phone store across the street and did not notice him. Bai Yao didn’t feel anything about this anymore, and didn’t care what he was doing there, just silently pulled up his clothes and got into the car.

He had already decided to move out of the dormitory and wanted to find a bigger house outside. One room for him to live in, one for the two bodyguards to live in, and he could usually invite Zhang Yifang and Li Jinyang to come over to play, which would be great.

But this was an idealized situation, and it would take a few days to complete the formalities for the most suitable house. Before leaving, Bai Junyi wanted Bai Yao to stay in a hotel, because climbing up and down the dormitory was very inconvenient.

Bai Yao refused, so tonight he still had to go back to the dormitory, just to pack his things.

An hour later, Liu Yucheng returned to the 219 dormitory with a new mobile phone, and was stunned when he opened the door.

Bai Yao was draped in clothes, sitting directly below the air conditioner. He was much thinner, his upper body was covered in gauze, revealing only his right shoulder.

Li Jinyang, Zhang Yifang, Tao Lin, and Yan Hao were all there, sitting on both sides of Bai Yao. Before he came back, they seemed to be chatting.

“Bai Yao?! These days you…”

Liu Yucheng was rarely flustered, and everyone saw it.

Seeing that he was about to rush to Bai Yao’s side, Tao Lin and Li Jinyang stood up at the same time, blocking him and Bai Yao on the left and right.

“What are you doing?”

Liu Yucheng threw his bag on the ground, in a posture that he would start fighting if they didn’t move away. “Get out of the way.”

Li Jinyang said unhappily: “Buddy, we already know everything. To be fair, what you did was pretty bastardly.”

“What are you referring to?” Liu Yucheng asked coldly.

“Tell me, where have you been these past few days when you haven’t been in the dormitory?” Zhang Yifang couldn’t help but interject.

“I can explain.”

Liu Yucheng was very anxious and looked at Bai Yao, “But this matter… I can only talk to you alone.”

In an instant, that initial feeling of being out of reach came again.

He was only a few meters away from Bai Yao.

Right now, he just wanted to walk over those few meters, and then hug Bai Yao and never let go. Compared to this idea, other things seemed not so important.

“Unfortunately, I’m not interested in listening anymore. I’m really not interested this time.”

Bai Yao lazily raised a finger, stared into Liu Yucheng’s eyes, and said, “I don’t want to see you now. Are you going out on your own or do you want me to personally kick you out?”

The dissipation of this relationship was definitely not just because of the days Liu Yucheng left. But if he had to start from the beginning, Bai Yao didn’t have that interest now.

The good show of tearing off his mask still had to be saved for later.

Liu Yucheng asked with difficulty, “Where do you want me to go?”

Bai Yao took out a few stacks of cash from the left and right pockets of his clothes, “I’ll give you fifty thousand yuan. I will move out of the dormitory before next week. Before that, you can go wherever you want. Don’t let me see your face.”

“You’re moving out?”

Liu Yucheng suddenly felt like the sky had fallen.

“Aren’t you afraid to sleep alone at night?” Liu Yucheng was still struggling, “We have to give a speech together this Friday, and we still have to meet in the lab class.”

Bai Yao couldn’t help laughing.

“Putting aside everything else, I’m definitely going to move out. I want to be my young master again.”

Bai Yao’s eyes looked particularly innocent at this moment, “My two new bodyguards are both big girls, they can’t enter the boys’ dormitory. Otherwise, why do you think you could possibly be in the same room with me like this, and still be so close to me?”
