Chapter 73: Seemingly Understood
“My brother is back,” Mu Qingran said, which was the main point. The first thing Mu Qingyi did upon returning was to eagerly await Yin Lingyan’s reply regarding the important ring in his hand.
Upon hearing Mu Qingran’s words, Yin Lingyan’s eyes sparkled with a brilliant light. Does this mean Han Wuyu is back too?
“Oh, Qingran, I have something to do, so I’ll hang up now. Bye-bye.”
Her heart was filled with joy, and she wanted to call Han Wuyu quickly. After the call connected, Yin Lingyan nervously listened to his voice.
“Hello.” The voice was somewhat cold, making one feel chilled upon hearing it. However, Yin Lingyan, caught up in her excitement, didn’t notice any of that.
“Han Wuyu?” Yin Lingyan asked nervously, her heart filled with apprehension.
Han Wuyu was startled when he heard the voice. Seeing that the contact was Lingyan, he realized he had answered without looking, as he had been tired and resting with his eyes closed.
“Mm.” Although he was surprised she would call him, his happiness couldn’t be outwardly expressed by someone as proud as him. However, this “Mm” was clearly gentler than the last time.
“Um… I have something to tell you tomorrow,” Yin Lingyan said awkwardly, as if she had mustered all her courage.
Han Wuyu paused, then replied, “Mm.”
Then… Yin Lingyan hung up the phone. However, throughout the entire call, Han Wuyu had only spoken three words, which made Yin Lingyan feel a bit insecure again, but…
Love should be spoken aloud; it’s so boring to keep it hidden.
So, all the things she had pondered for a long time were no match for Mu Qingran’s timely phone call that enlightened her. It was that call that made her realize how happy she was knowing he had returned.
Han Wuyu stared blankly at the screen, lost in thought. He fiddled with the hairpin in his hand, his messy hair looking incredibly handsome under the sunlight.
As if he had also figured something out, Han Wuyu stood up, tightly gripping the hairpin in his hand. His heart began to race with excitement. Lingyan, wait for me. At this moment, he suddenly looked forward to what Yin Lingyan wanted to tell him.
“Lingyan…” Yin Lingyan heard Mu Qingran’s voice from afar. She saw Mu Qingyi and Mu Qingran together.
“Qingran, Brother Qingyi,” Yin Lingyan greeted them happily. Perhaps this was a way to release her nervousness.
“Let’s go to school together.” Mu Qingran pulled Yin Lingyan’s hand, but Yin Lingyan refused.
“No, Qingran. I have something to do today, so I won’t be going into school with you. Wait for me in the classroom,” Yin Lingyan said, not daring to look at Mu Qingran’s expression. This was the first time in their history as best friends that she had refused.
“Ah… I…” Before Mu Qingran could finish, Mu Qingyi pulled her, stopping her from speaking further. Mu Qingran looked at Mu Qingyi and sensibly remained silent.
Yin Lingyan smiled slightly, gave Mu Qingran an apologetic look, and ran into the school.
Meanwhile…
“Yu…” As Han Wuyu just entered the campus, he heard a girl’s voice. This voice was one he was very familiar with.

PS: Yes, some of you might find this unrealistic, but this is a novel, and it’s fictional. Although my portrayal of the underworld isn’t entirely realistic, I will do my best to write the most exciting plot for you. If a campus novel were to lack this element, it would truly be dull.
Some readers have asked if I will write another book. After this one, I will definitely take a month or so to rest before writing a new book. This book is still new, so it’s still a long way from completion. Everything is just beginning.
