Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 429 An Encounter (Part 1)

In Nevada during seasonal changes, the weather is always unpredictable.

On their way to the hotel, the sun was shining brightly outside, but when they returned, a strong wind began to blow.

The clouds in the sky drifted away as quickly as if a video had been fast-forwarded.

The hurricane, like a drug addict indulging in debauchery, pounded wildly against the bushes in the hotel's green belt, as if trying to uproot them.

Such terrible weather makes one worry for the lighter pedestrians on the sidewalk.

After dinner, the weather outside still hadn't improved.

Yi Wenna stood in the hotel lobby, looking towards the door.

"Don't you ever check the weather when you're planning your trip?" Ai Liang sighed.

"Well, how was I supposed to know that the weather in Nevada was so unpredictable?"

Yi Wenna said with some grievance, "It's perfectly fine during the day, but why does it look like it's going to pour rain at night?"

Ai Liang kept glancing at her phone and then at the elevator entrance, as if she were waiting for someone: "It's currently the month when the seasons change in Nevada City, so the timing of the joint entrance exam isn't very convenient."

"Why didn't you remind us before you left?" Yi Wenna shouted, pouting.

"You were the one who told me to go downstairs and wait first."

Ai Liang looked at Yi Wenna as if she were an idiot: "Besides, with such a strong wind outside, any normal person would think to bring an umbrella, right? Do you really need to remind them?"

Yi Wenna was both angry and frustrated after being ridiculed.

I'm angry because Ai Liang called me stupid, and I feel frustrated because he's absolutely right...

It's one thing to have misread the weather before coming, but I never expected that this silly deer, Yi Wenna, wouldn't even bring a spare umbrella, only a light lace parasol.

With that umbrella frame, it would probably fall apart as soon as it's opened in this kind of weather.

Fortunately, Ye Qing had a lot of life experience and knew that she had to be well prepared before going on a long trip.

However, Yi Wenna was in a hurry when we went downstairs and I forgot to take my umbrella. I'm going back to my room to get it now.

As for why Yi Wenna wasn't allowed to go up...

Firstly, since the umbrella belonged to Ye Qing, it was inconvenient for Yi Wenna to rummage through her suitcase.

Secondly, Yi Wenna didn't want to create any space for Ai Liang and Ye Qing to be alone, so she chose to stay and wait with Ai Liang in the lobby.

"Ai Liang, what are you preparing for..."

Chen Zili suddenly appeared out of nowhere, accompanied by three roommates.

That's right, Xu Tao is one of them.

I was rejected by Yi Wenna this morning, and then tonight I saw Ai Liang standing in the hotel lobby with my goddess, looking like they were about to go out. This feeling is just...unbelievable.

"She wanted to take Ye Qing out to see a movie, and Ye Qing gave me a ride along."

Ai Liang didn't give them a chance to misunderstand and made things clear directly.

After hearing Ai Liang's explanation, Xu Tao felt a little better.

But another friend jokingly said, "Where did Ye Qing go? Why are you two the only ones here? Could it be that you're planning to sneak out without Ye Qing knowing..."

Before the man could finish speaking, a sudden pang of heart palpitation shot through his chest.

It was as if an invisible force had gripped his heart, ready to unleash a juicer-like performance the next second.

Ai Liang watched indifferently as the man's face gradually turned pale, without feeling that anything was amiss.

"Yo, Ai Liang!"

Ye Qing's voice came from the elevator entrance behind her.

Ai Liang withdrew her mental pressure and turned around, regaining her previous calm demeanor.

The student who had been gossiping quickly regained his rosy complexion.

He assumed it was just another relapse of his old problem and didn't pay much attention to it.

Ye Qing gave Ai Liang and Yi Wenna an apologetic smile: "Haha, I forgot that Silly Na put the umbrella in the storage rack yesterday. I looked for it in the living room for a long time."

After greeting the two, Ye Qing looked at Chen Zili and his group and asked, "Are you also planning to come out and have some fun?"

"No, we're going to the bathhouse in the back. They offer free massages there."

Chen Zili explained.

Ye Qing nodded slightly with her mouth slightly open: "Oh, I see... We're planning to go out to see a movie. If we come back late, please let the teacher know."

Chen Zili waved his hand with a smile: "I know. With Ai Liang, a local, leading the way, the teacher won't make things difficult for you. Just remember to come back soon."

"We might as well have told them in advance, so the teachers don't keep asking around. What if they make us come back before the movie is even over?" Yi Wenna muttered quietly beside her.

Chen Zili pretended not to hear Yi Wenna's words.

You broke the rules and ran away secretly. You should have told the teacher before you ran away, right?
It's no wonder the teacher wouldn't let you leave.

Teachers can turn a blind eye to students sneaking out to play after dinner.

But if you openly ask the teacher for permission, the school will definitely cause trouble for the teacher in charge.

Ye Qing asked Chen Zili to say something so that she could smooth things over after being discovered.

The deed is done, and the teacher won't say anything more.

But Yi Wenna's greeting was tantamount to openly telling the teacher that she was going to break the rules.

If anything happens outside, the teacher will be fully responsible. Who gave you permission to let them go out at night?
All I can say is that Silly Na truly lives up to her name; she may have a wrong given name, but she never gets a wrong nickname.

I really don't know how this silly guy will inherit the family fortune without being swindled out of it.

Ai Liang and her group arrived at the mall by taxi.

The movie tickets that Yi Wenna booked will, unsurprisingly, be for Ai Liang, Yue Qihua, and Yang Xingyue, at the same cinema they went to yesterday.

Just like yesterday, Ai Liang brought two girls to the front desk to buy popcorn.

The good looks of Ai Liang, Yue Qihua, and Yang Xingyue clearly left a deep impression on the two waiters.

After all, they had a fight about it yesterday.

When they encountered Ai Liang again today, the two waiters didn't secretly peek at her like they did yesterday. Instead, they looked at her with strange eyes, glancing at Ai Liang one moment and then at Ye Qing and Yi Wenna the next.

"If I remember correctly, these weren't the two who came with him yesterday, were they?"

After the three people had walked away, the male waiter asked in a low voice.

"Are you blind? Of course not," the waitress retorted with a sneer.

"Tsk tsk tsk, who was it that wanted someone's contact information yesterday? Bringing four different girls to the movies over two nights, that's definitely a scumbag."

The male waiter said gloatingly.

"Heh, look how much better she is than you. I'd be happy even if she dumped me," the waitress retorted sarcastically.

The male waiter retorted defiantly: "You? I at least have some self-awareness. Even if he's a jerk, look at all the girls around him, aren't they all beauties? You're even happy to be dumped. It's not even certain that he'd even be interested in you."

"Are you trying to pick a fight again?"

"They attacked my appearance first!"
