Listening to the conversation between them, Lin Bai silently made a decision.
For the sake of the mental health of his roommates, he absolutely could not let them know that not only was he being pursued by the school beauty, but he had also won five million dollars.
Although Lin Bai did not intend to make the matter of winning the lottery public in the first place in order to protect his life from being disrupted, he now had a new reason to do so.
They were classmates. He could not let them suffer such a huge shock. He had to leave some room for them to survive.
It was not easy to make it to the end of class. Lin Bai could not wait to pack up his school bag and prepare to go home.
Lao San, who was next to him, nudged him twice with his elbow and teased, "The great beauty is waiting for you at the door. Hurry up and go."
Lin Bai looked up and indeed saw Yu Jinmo waiting for him at the corridor.
He walked out of the classroom quickly and said to Yu Jinmo with a smile, "I was going to look for you after class, but I didn't expect you to come here first."
Yu Jinmo pursed her lips and smiled. Her clear eyes were filled with Lin Bai's shadow.
"I missed you. I wanted to see you earlier, so I skipped class a few minutes earlier."
Lin Bai felt a warm and fuzzy sweetness in his heart, but he said, "Silly, don't do this again."
"Otherwise, if the teacher calls your name in the last few minutes, won't he find you that you're absent from class?"
Yu Jinmo nodded obediently.
"Alright, I'll listen to you. Then I'll come and look for you after class."
Lin Bai corrected her, "You should wait for me to come over."
"You're my girlfriend now, you should give me a chance to spoil you once in a while."
As he said that, he held Yu Jinmo's hand and pulled her out.
When the students at the side heard their conversation, they were both envious and jealous.
What a guy, his girlfriend is the campus belle and he only wants to pamper her once in a while?
Once in a while?
?
At that moment, countless boys cried out silently in their hearts.
'I'm willing to pamper you every day, all the time!! Dear School Belle, look at me!!'
However, in Yu Jinmo's eyes, Lin Bai was the only one from the beginning to the end.
No matter if it was a man or a woman, they were all non-existent in her eyes.
"Uh... It's my birthday today," Yu Jinmo whispered.
Lin Bai was very surprised.
"Why didn't you say so earlier? I didn't even prepare a gift."
"Wait a minute, I'll order a cake first, then we'll discuss the gift."
Lin Bai took out his phone and searched for the best cake shop in the city.
Yu Jinmo pressed her slender fingertips gently on the back of his hand and said with a smile, "No need, it's fine as long as you're with me. Those aren't important."
Lin Bai couldn't help but sigh. This girlfriend of his was so sensible that it made his heart ache.
"These don't conflict with companionship. It's not like I won't accompany you after buying the cake and gifts. Be good, how can you not have these on my birthday?"
Lin Bai didn't want to let such a good girl down.
However, Yu Jinmo was very embarrassed.
She said, "I originally wanted to spend some time alone with you, but Zhang Li insisted on throwing me a birthday party."
"Besides, she's already booked everything and has invited a lot of friends. It's really not good if I don't go..."
Lin Bai expressed his understanding.
"Then go, have fun with your girlfriends."
He couldn't just stop Yu Jinmo from socializing with her friends just because she was now in a relationship.
Yu Jinmo said, "But I want to stay with you. Can you go with me?"
"Sure."
Lin Bai agreed with a smile.
Yu Jinmo heaved a sigh of relief. She hugged Lin Bai's arm with a smile and took a taxi with him to the KTV that Zhang Li had booked.
On the way, Zhang Li kept calling to ask where Yu Jinmo was and kept urging her to hurry up. She even said that everyone had arrived and were waiting for her.
Yu Jinmo was under a lot of psychological pressure, so she could only report her schedule all the way.
Lin Bai was a little bored, so he took out his phone and planned to read a novel for a while.
However, the future news app suddenly popped up, indicating that there was new news.
Lin Bai clicked on it.
He saw a black-and-white photo of Yu Jinmo!
Lin Bai's heart skipped a beat. He looked at it carefully, and the big words written on the title bar made his heart turn cold.
[ Local news: the daughter of the richest man in S city has been kidnapped and unfortunately, murdered. ]
The daughter of the richest man.
Murdered.
These two keywords deeply stimulated Lin Bai's nerves.
He hoped that this was just a coincidence and that the person who was killed was a stranger who looked similar to Yu Jinmo.
However, in the main text of the news, the words "The daughter of the Yu Corporation" were clearly written.
The surname 'Yu' was rare to begin with. Furthermore, they had to look exactly the same, so it was even more impossible.
Moreover, the news also said that the victim was the only daughter of the richest man in S City, Yu Jianhao, and the sole heir of the Yu Corporation.
The only daughter.
Therefore, it was impossible that her twin sister had been killed.
It was Yu Jinmo herself.
The last bit of luck was completely shattered. Lin Bai had no choice but to accept this cruel reality.
He could no longer care about being surprised by Yu Jinmo's background and why she had been hiding it from him.
Right now, there was only one thought in his mind. No matter what, he could not let Yu Jinmo be kidnapped!
Changing the future system popping up at this time was obviously to give him a chance to change the future.
If he did not even succeed in this, Lin Bai would never be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.
Yu Jinmo finally finished dealing with his best friend Zhang Li's life-threatening series of reminders. He hung up the phone and realized that Lin Bai's expression was very ugly.
She asked worriedly, "Lin Bai, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"
Lin Bai shook his head and held her hand tightly, afraid that if he let go, he would lose her forever.
Yu Jinmo became even more worried.
"Oh my God, why is your hand so cold? Is it very cold?"
"Sir, could you please turn off the air conditioner?"
After saying that, she even held Lin Bai's hand to her mouth and exhaled to warm his hand.
"Why didn't you ask him to turn off the air conditioner when it's cold? Are you afraid that it will affect my call?"
"It's not an important call. Besides, even if it's an important call, it's not as important as you. Don't do this again."
Yu Jinmo's heart ached terribly.
The driver held back his tears and silently turned on the radio, trying to cover Yu Jinmo's voice.
This dog food was too much to handle.
Lin Bai grabbed her hand even harder and interlocked his fingers with hers.
"Don't take a single step away from me."
He said these words with difficulty. His mind was filled with the black-and-white photo from the news.
In the photo, Yu Jinmo was smiling beautifully. She was so beautiful that it couldn't be described with words.
However, the black-and-white color made Lin Bai's heart feel like it was being cut by a knife whenever he thought about it.
Yu Jinmo had no idea what kind of terrible fate she was going to face. She thought that Lin Bai just wanted to stick to her, so she agreed with a smile.
She also wanted to stick to Lin Bai.
"Okay, okay, okay. Then we'll just hold on to each other like this, and we won't let go of each other no matter where we go."
"Okay."
