Chapter 964: Laying the Groundwork

y alone stretches as far as the eye can see. General Feng Ming stood on the city wall, looking down at the convoy below, his eyes flickering before he asked his deputy:What do you see"The Panlong King...Even during the day, Li Gang would instinctively avoid his neighbors and choose the least populated times to go out. Therefore, when something happened in her past life, no one stood by Ripples' side, assuming it was all just her delusion.

Ripples carried her things back to school directly. After all, the final exams were coming up soon, and she had to get through them first. She couldn't lose the image of the diligent student that her original self had cultivated.

When the ripples came back, most of the people in the dormitory were there. Seeing her carrying her luggage back, they all knew she wasn't renting a house outside anymore.

Ripples, are you not renting a house anymore

A short, round-faced roommate asked.

"Don't mention it, I didn't want to come back originally, but Li Gang found the opportunity to block me at the rental house and even found where I was working. I had no choice but to move out."

With a complexion paling, Lian Yi said.

The ripples' words caught everyone's attention, after all, this was the first time Ripples had spoken about her own private affairs.

"How come Aren't you from the same hometown I thought you two got along well before"

Another girl with her hair in a ponytail was reading at the desk.

She saw the two of them together several times, but because Luo Lianyi rarely spoke about this in the dormitory, they didn't ask much. Since she brought it up this time, she couldn't help but ask a question.

Although not true hometown neighbors, his hometown is right next to mine. Since we're from the same region, people in our hometown would know each other. He said we're practically half-hometowners and even introduced me to a few job opportunities.

As you know, my family isn't well-off and I mostly earn my tuition fees myself. Since he introduced me to this opportunity, I went. Afterwards, I also treated him to a few meals as a way of repaying his favor.

Later, he hinted that he wanted to date me. I didn't want to talk about it, so I politely declined. He wouldn't give up and found out where I rented my place. Today, he even blocked me in the alleyway. I directly refused him.

But seeing his face wasn't good, I was afraid of trouble, so I went to find Aunt Fang from the landlord and checked out, moving back to the dormitory.

If Li Gang comes looking for me, please help me cover for me and say I'm not here. Just keep it up until the holiday starts, please!

After finishing, Lianyi bowed to the surrounding classmates.

"Alright, we'll definitely help you. It's right that you moved back. Besides, it's the end of term exams now, and you need to attend evening study sessions. Don't waste time on those kinds of people."

The round-faced female classmate immediately said.

Although they don't interact much on a daily basis, as fellow females, they would definitely trust their roommates more. The original owner's grades speak for themselves, and she was the hard-working type. She spent all day working to earn money, who had time for dating The only person she got close to was a fellow villager, and that was also just for work.

Liàn Yī gave her roommate some biased information, and after making the bed tidy, she also took out her book to review and shared her notes with her roommate.

On the other side, Li Gang went to the rental house the next day to pack his belongings and found that the door wouldn't open. Just as he was about to call Lianyi, the door swung open from the inside. It was a middle-aged man wearing a vest and shorts.

The man glared at Li Gang with malicious intent.

"Who are you Why are you knocking on my door" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I'll get my luggage, please let me through."

Li Gang's face was a little unsightly.

"Lao Ji, who is it"

At this moment, a woman's voice came from inside the house. Li Gang was clearly taken aback.

"Strangers."

The man still stared intently at Li Gang.

But the woman still walked out, standing beside the man. Seeing Li Gang, she frowned and asked:

Whom are you looking for

He said he came to get his luggage.

A man answered before Li Gang could speak.

"Hey kid, this house is brand new to us. The landlord didn't leave anything in it when we moved in except for a few pieces of furniture. She said the furniture belongs to her. If you have any questions, just ask the landlord!"

The woman was about thirty-five years old, and her speech was still polite.

Li Gang, after hearing this, looked at the top of both people's heads to make sure they weren't lying. Then he turned and left.

As he stepped out of the alley, he frowned and dialed Lian Yi's number. For the sake of convenience with their part-time jobs, they had both bought phones, though they were the cheapest kind with blue screens.

Lian Yi was in the dormitory at this time, when her phone rang. The sound was quite loud, so everyone instinctively looked towards Lian Yi.

Lianshan picked up her phone and, looking at the name displayed on the screen, frowned. The round-faced classmate next to her glanced over and saw that the caller was Li Gang.

Liàn yī dī zhí àn diào le diàn huà, jiāng shǒujī fàngle zài yī páng, gāng ná qǐ bǐ, shǒujī yòu xìngle.

Ripple, is that an emergency call Or should you just pick it up

The dorm manager said to Lianyi, "I think she was being so roundabout because she felt disturbed by us studying."

"It seems like it's Li Gang."

The girl with round cheeks spoke first.

"Sorry for interrupting, I'll be turning off now to review."

Ripple apologized and then hung up the phone again, turning it off directly. The dormitory returned to silence, and everyone focused on their studies without asking further questions.

After having his phone calls hung up twice in a row, Li Gang's face turned extremely ugly. He immediately went back to school, certain that Lian Yi must have returned to the dormitory.

Li Gang came to the girls' dormitory building and asked a classmate from the next-door dorm to tell Lian Yi that he was waiting downstairs. The classmate delivered the message while Lian Yi's dormmates were present.

"Wow! He actually came after me!"

My round-faced roommate whispered.

Ripple frowned and shook her head, then thanked the classmate who was passing her the note.

"Thank you, classmates. I understand!"

After the other person left, she continued to read her book and didn't plan on going downstairs at all.

Ripples, why don't you come and see

"I'm not going. I've made myself very clear, and now he's being clingy. I even quit my part-time job, and I don't want anything to do with him anymore. If I go see him, it could give him the wrong idea."

Ripples shook her head.

Everyone thought that Ripple's actions were justified, so they didn't persuade them further. After all, this was someone else's business.

When their roommate went out for dinner, LianYi made an excuse that she was afraid of being stopped and asked her roommate to bring her some food.

The dorm head brought back the cooked rice and handed it to Ripples, saying:

"Ripples, I see that Li Gang is still waiting for you downstairs. This time he asked me to pass on a message. Maybe you should go down and talk things through It's not good for him to keep hovering around like this."

"Whew! I know, I'll go down after dinner."

Ripple said helplessly.

"Don't worry, when they come back, we'll go down with you, just standing far away and not getting close, so you won't be at a disadvantage."

The head resident immediately said.

"Thank you, dorm leader. Please rest assured! I will be more firm in my attitude this time."

Ripples clenched her fists and said.

All of the roommates who lived in the same dorm as Ripple were back, and then the girl with round face said to her:

"Ripples, that Li Gang stopped us, seemed to want us to bring a message to you, but in the end he didn't say anything, just walked away with a dark face, looking quite scary, you have to be careful in the future."

What did you think of him back then

Ripples knew that Li Gang must have used mind reading to see what these roommates were thinking.

"I think he's really disgusting, keeps bothering me even after being rejected!" asked me to go after Feng Junyi for a special punishment. Unfortunately, they didn't even have the target's accurate birthdate, nor any personal belongings of Feng Junyi as a medium. This mission was...
