Chapter 19: The Swing in the Garden and the Tao outside the Wall (Seeking a Buyer)

  Lin Nan's voice came out somewhat dazedly through the receiver, no need to think that this was a symptom of being woken up from sleep.

  "It's nothing, really." Li Xiaobai carefully said a sentence.

  There was no other way, at that time only Lin Nan's number had just been dialed, and she could only be disturbed again.

  "You..."

  Then there was no then, Lin Nan hung up the phone decisively.

  Won't you get angry because of this?

  It's impossible. Lin Nan is a teacher, and as a teacher, one should be more broad-minded. And I'm also a good student in the eyes of the teacher. Although the teacher may not admit it, but I couldn't go against my own heart.

  In summary, Li Xiaobai felt that it was reasonable and understandable for Lin Nan not to be angry.

  Even if I got angry, it shouldn't be his fault, but rather because I had a nightmare.

  What a coincidence, Lin Nan would be grateful for this, because he was the one who woke Lin Nan up from his nightmare. Otherwise, Lin Nan would have continued to suffer from the torment of the nightmare.

  Even without the guidance of the greeter and waiter, Li Xiaobai still walked out of the restaurant that was like a maze with ease.

  As soon as he walked out of the restaurant, as expected, he saw Yuan Garden waiting anxiously.

  Yuan Garden's small mouth opened slightly, and she was stunned on the spot, as if suddenly seeing something unbelievable, when she saw Lin Xiaobai appear suddenly.

  "You... how did you get out? Where's Guo Jing?"

  Yuan Garden forced a smile, but that smile was far inferior to Guo Jing's earlier one.

  Li Xiaobai hadn't even had time to respond when Yuan's phone rang at just the right moment.

  "Yuan Garden, Li Xiaobai suddenly disappeared, the waiter won't let me leave, what to do?" Even without turning up the volume, Guo Jing's anxiety could be heard.

  "He...he's already out."

  "Ah...... how is that possible? At that time, his family suddenly received a phone call......" Guo Jing was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Damn it, that phone call wasn't even from his family."

  Then there was no sound on the phone, and Guo Jing probably hung up in a huff.

  In the blink of an eye, both girls were already furious. It seems that there is still room for development in my unknown abilities. However, since Guo Jing is so angry, Lin Nan won't be this angry too, right?

  Although she is a good teacher, after all, she is only in her twenties, and it's possible that she might really get angry.

  No, how could Teacher be angry? Li Xiaobai hurriedly comforted himself.

  "Li... Xiaobai, how did you expose it?" Just a brief moment of awkwardness, and Yuan Garden regained his usual smile.

  "Why don't you worry about your friend first?" Li Xiaobai said with a carefree tone, "If she didn't bring any money, I reckon the restaurant will have to contact the school directly."

  At that time, Guo Jing Xiao Niang was so embarrassed that she lost her way in the Sahara Desert, just thinking about it feels great.

  "Go ahead and have your grand spring and autumn dreams!"

  The words had barely fallen when a discontented voice came from not far away, and it was clear that Guo Jing had already been released from the restaurant.

  "You... are you really being released without a guilty verdict?" Li Xiaobai said with some regret, "You didn't pawn your student ID or something and that's why the restaurant let you leave, did you?"

  "You're just released for no crime?" After being tricked by Li Xiaobai, Guo Jing looked like a wilted eggplant and said in a depressed tone.

  He has been doing well all along, where did this guy find a clue?

  Couldn't find the answer, Guo Jing began to doubt his own intelligence wasn't enough.

  Li Xiaobai wouldn't care about Guo Jingyu's sulky mood, he took out his phone to check the time, it was only half past twelve. At this point, it was still early for class, and going back to the dormitory would be pointless as the door would already be closed, and the classroom door would definitely be locked too.

  Alas, swings within the wall and roads outside the wall, each place has its own advantages.

  "Now where are we going?" Guo Jing temporarily put away his depressed mood, looking at the two of them, "We can't keep walking forever, I'm getting a bit tired."

  You've only walked a few steps and you're already tired, Li Xiaobai was so disdainful he didn't know what to say.

  "I happen to know there's a garden nearby," said Yuan Garden, "Why don't we go sit there?"

  As they were talking, Li Xiaobai walked alone towards the direction of the campus.

  He had also been to that garden, but the direction was clearly opposite to the campus. He didn't eat much originally and he didn't bother wasting extra calories continuing to do those useless tasks.

  "Li Xiaobai, where are you going? The classroom hasn't opened yet?" came the shout from behind by Guo Jing.

  "I didn't say I was going back to the classroom," Li Xiaobai said without turning his head, starting to feel proud and pleased with himself. "At this time, no one is competing with me for the playground. Think about it, at this moment all the lawns on the playground are under my feet, doesn't it feel like I have a whole pasture that's all mine?"

  Unlike those theorists, Li Xiaobai considered himself both a theorist and an activist. In this era destined for peace, he was eager to conquer the school playground.

  Although he had conquered several times in high school, what's the matter, who made the classroom not open at this time, he could only continue to conquer.

  The two girls looked at each other in dismay, having run out of things to say.

  "Guo Jing, don't you want to go to the garden? I always feel like it's very dangerous with him around?" Yuan You hesitated, actually she didn't want to take a detour either.

  "What can I do, Lin Nan has already arranged for me to sit with him," Guo Jing said, gritting his teeth as he looked at Li Xiaobai's back, "Besides, I still don't know why he exposed us, so I have to follow him."

  Yuan Garden nodded in agreement, this was also something she couldn't understand.

  The process of entering school is also nothing to mention.

  Although the three of them arrived a bit early, high school was lacking in everything except for enthusiastic activists. At this point, students returning from home were not many, but not none either, and the old man at the gate had already gotten used to it.

  Three people slowly strolled to the playground, and when they arrived at the playground, Li Xiaobai tidied up a bit and lay down on the ground. Girls are much cleaner than boys, but in the crisp autumn season, their concerns seemed to be reduced as well.

  However, despite this, both girls tacitly did not lie down.

  If there were more people, it would be better. As Li Xiaobai said, at this time, the playground was empty, and if they lay down, they would be seen by others, what a joke.

  "Hmph, men are simply detestable, easily taking advantage of their upper hand."

  "Li Xiaobai, you haven't said how you found out yet?" Seeing the boy with his eyes slightly closed, Guo Jing pushed him.

  "Why should I tell you?" Li Xiaobai said matter-of-factly, "If I told you, wouldn't you be even more skilled at deceiving people in the future? I've been to hell once and that's enough. As a man, I don't want others to go to hell."

  Li Xiaobai is so noble, how is it possible?
