Usually when class ended, Wu Hao, the assistant, would have already rushed to Yin Shaojie’s side to begin his round of bootlicking. However, the former did not dare to go near him right now until Yin Shaojie called his name, whereupon he walked over, trembling in fear.
Yin Shaojie’s face was dark. He was drumming his slender fingers on the table and looked especially frustrated. After he called Wu Hao over, it was a long while before he opened his mouth to speak.
“You. Go to Year One’s Class S and do something for me.”
“What’s the matter, Young Master Jie?” Wu Hao answered obediently, practically standing at attention and awaiting his instructions.

Even though Wu Hao did not comprehend Young Master Jie’s intentions for doing this, he still nodded obediently and answered, “Understood.”
“Be quick about it.” Yin Shaojie waved him off, and the gloom in his face seemed to have relaxed a little.
“I’m on it!” Wu Hao said obsequiously as he ran out of the classroom. ????n????????????????????.＆nbsp;????????????
Yet, he had not gone far from the classroom before he ran into Bai Meijiao walking towards him.
Bai Meijiao was the prettiest girl in the freshmen batch of Year Ones, and she was also Young Master Jie’s current girlfriend.
Seeing Bai Meijiao, Wu Hao quickly fawned upon her, calling out, “Sister-in-law! Looking for Young Master Jie? He is waiting for you inside.”
Bai Meijiao smiled prettily. Her face was fair and clear and looked as white as snow. She asked, “Where are you going then? Buying something for him?”
“No, Young Master Jie wants me to go to Year One’s Class S to help him look for someone.”
Bai Meijiao’s curiosity was aroused. With an air of nonchalance, she asked, “Who is he looking for? Is it a guy or a girl?”
“She’s a girl called Mu Xiaoxiao.” Usually, Wu Hao curried favor with the women Young Master Jie hung out with by answering all their questions faithfully. This enabled him to cultivate excellent relationships with them under the table.
“Mu Xiaoxiao…” Bai Meijiao narrowed her eyes. She remembered the girl who came to look for Yin Shaojie yesterday. Could it be her?

“About that… I don’t really know either. I’m only acting upon Young Master Jie’s orders,” Wu Hao replied awkwardly.
If there were any news, he would not conceal it from Bai Meijiao.
Even though he did not know how long she would be hanging around Young Master Jie, being able to offer his usefulness in exchange for her connections was also a form of bribery that he thought might be useful in the future.
Bai Meijiao remembered her fury yesterday and began to harbor animosity towards Mu Xiaoxiao. She smiled suddenly and said to Wu Hao, “I’m a little thirsty. Go and get me a drink from the grocery store, and get one for Brother Shaojie too.”
Seeing Wu Hao hesitate, Bai Meijiao glared at him with her pretty eyes and said, “Is Mu Xiaoxiao more important, or am I more important? Think about it carefully.”
She lifted her chin with pride.
Wu Hao considered this. Recently, Bai Meijiao had been highly favored, and she might even break the record to become Young Master Jie’s longest girlfriend. Also, there were currently no signs of Young Master Jie getting bored of her or acquiring a new target. With this assessment, he concluded that Bai Meijiao was slightly more important.
Thus, in a bootlicking manner, he answered, “Sister-in-law, the answer is obvious! You’re naturally more important. Alright, I’ll go and buy the drinks right now!”
Bai Meijiao then gave a satisfied smile. “Relax. I’m on your side, so Brother Shaojie won’t be angry. Go and get the drinks for us first before searching for Mu Xiaoxiao, whoever she is.”
