Hong Yin laughed then, without saying anything, turned around and walked downstairs. Bai Yunfei and the two girls also went with him. After casually tossing a gold coin to the manager to pay for the damages, they walked out of this restaurant immediately.
Hong Yin looked at the two girls behind Bai Yunfei and frowned slightly. Bai Yunfei understood what he meant so he turned around and said to Liu Meng: “Meng’er, you and Xiao Ning just wait here for a while, I’ll be back very soon.”
Liu Meng nodded with a seemingly somewhat worried expression, saying softly: “Mm, be careful, Yunfei. I’ll be waiting for you here…”
……
Bai Yunfei followed Hong Yin into a nearby empty alleyway. The latter looked around then halted his steps, turned to Bai Yunfei, nodded slightly and said: “What’s your name, little brother?”
“Bai Yunfei.”
“Mm, my name is Hong Yin.” After introducing his name, Hong Yin inclined his head to look at Xiao Tang on his shoulder, saying smilingly: “This is my friend, Xiao Tang. Don’t think that he’s just an ordinary little rat. He’s a very formidable soul beast.”
Slightly startled, Bai Yunfei looked at this ‘little rat’ rather doubtfully. However, now was not the time to be curious so he folded his hands to Hong Yin, saying: “What do you want to tell me when calling me to this place?”
“Ha ha, looks like you’re doubting me somewhat. I can tell you that I want to get to know you a bit just because I know the relationship between you and the Fate School.” Hong Yin firt revealed why he had looked for him instead of answering his question right away.
Bai Yunfei was surprised: “You’re from the Fate School?”
“No, there’s no connection between me and the Fate School, but two days ago I had a discussion with senior Qin Zheng of the Fate School, um, he’s the senior who looked for you that night.”
Bai Yunfei fell silent, seeming to be arguing with himself in his mind. Hong Yin did not disturb him and waited for him patiently. A while later, Bai Yunfei raised his head again and asked with a much less cautious expression: “Then what do you want to tell me, brother Hong Yin?”
Hong Yin said laughingly: “I discovered some matters, and I feel that I should tell you about them. You…”
……
Liu Meng and Xiao Ning were standing in front of a market stall that sold baubles next to the restaurant. Xiao Ning was looking at the various little things on the stall with a curious expression, but Liu Meng was glancing at that alleyway where Bai Yunfei and Hong Yin had gone into in a somewhat preoccupied manner.
Suddenly, her eyes brightened as she saw Bai Yunfei walk out from the alleyway and go towards her. With a happy expression, she pulled Xiao Ning and went up to meet him.
