Chapter 934: Chapter 590: Experiment

As the school bell rang for dismissal at Yanyun Middle School, students began to leave the campus in small groups and pairs.

Yun Ting was holding a few textbooks while greeting her classmates and walking out of the school.

Being amiable in her daily interactions, she enjoyed a good deal of popularity among her peers, who were very enthusiastic towards her.

After all, it was only natural for someone who would instinctively help a classmate they didn’t even know to receive such treatment.

Not far behind her,

Luo Qiao was watching her back with a trace of a cold smile on her lips.

"Soon, everyone will be looking at you with disgust. I really want to see your face then," she thought and then turned into an alley.

To outsiders, and even in Yun Ting’s own view, Luo Qiao and Yun Ting had a good relationship.

After all, they were not only classmates but also attended the same interest classes and often went to and from school or hung out together, appearing quite close.

In truth, however, Luo Qiao loathed Yun Ting.

She loathed Yun Ting’s delicate appearance, her upbeat nature, and her constant presence around herself. What she loathed even more was that others always compared them.

Despite both of them having excellent grades, the other students’ attention always seemed to stay on Yun Ting. Boys always inquired about Yun Ting, whether overtly or covertly. Despite coming from a less fortunate background, she always wore that carefree smile.

All of these things filled Luo Qiao with jealousy. If only she weren’t around... That’s right, it would be better without her!

It was just a few days ago that her cousin "Alon," who for some reason had visited the school, sought her out and inquired about Yun Ting.

He said he had seen Yun Ting at school and wanted to learn more about her. He asked Luo Qiao to arrange a meeting with Yun Ting...

At that time, Luo Qiao was not angry, but instead very pleased.

She knew... an opportunity had arrived.

Alon was a well-known local delinquent and had even been imprisoned for a few years because of a burglary.

He had a very nasty character and was greedy and lecherous. Even Luo Qiao, a relative, had no intention of associating with him.

And now this man had taken an interest in Yun Ting... Thinking of this, Luo Qiao became excited.

Ruining Yun Ting might be the best method!

She wanted to ensure Yun Ting could no longer keep that carefree smile, to see the gazes of those classmates change from admiration to disgust when looking at Yun Ting, to let everyone know how the spotlighted Yun Ting became tainted and disgraceful!

Imagining all the scenes that would follow, an excited flush appeared on Luo Qiao’s face. She quickly stepped into a taxi.

What she did not know was that behind her, a dark shadow flashed past.

It moved so quickly that it followed the moving taxi closely.

About ten minutes later, the taxi stopped outside a factory building by the river, guarded by several security guards who were smoking.

After Luo Qiao paid and got out of the taxi, she walked into the factory building. Seeing that it was Luo Qiao, the security guards did not stop her.

This was where Alon worked for the Jiangyun Company. Alon, through some connection in prison, managed to get some money after his release and started working in river transport. Of course, Luo Qiao also knew that what they were transporting wasn’t exactly legitimate.

Recently, Alon mentioned a big overseas order that could make a tidy profit.

Luo Qiao noticed, however, that there were many unfamiliar faces in the company now.

Normally, the people Alon brought in were delinquents he was familiar with. Usually, when she came here, they were all smoking and playing cards.

Now, they were actually working seriously.

And those strangers, although they were dressed just like the long-time employees, had an indescribable coldness about them.

Each stood in their respective corners, as if they were inanimate objects.

If the room hadn’t been brightly lit, Luo Qiao might not have been able to see these people at all.

Faced with these unfamiliar faces, Luo Qiao didn’t bother with them.

Instead, she hurried towards the office, and as she pushed the office door open, she blurted out, "Alon, the plan you talked about, I agree! Tomorrow I’ll ask Yun Ting out..."

She had already thought of a strategy, to use her relationship with Yun Ting to lure her out and then slip her something like a sleeping drug. Then... heh.

However, her words came to an abrupt halt. Because she saw that there were outsiders in the office.

That was a man with an effeminate appearance, probably around thirty years old, with handsome features and skin as fair and smooth as a young girl’s.

He sat in the boss’s chair, holding a teacup as he sipped his tea elegantly.

And her cousin Alon, who normally strutted around with an air of authority, was now seated courteously in the guest seat, pouring tea for the effeminate man.

Seeing Luo Qiao barge in, Alon’s face twitched, and he frantically made faces at her. With dignified outsiders present, this was clearly not the time to discuss the plan.

Luo Qiao’s heart skipped a beat, and she thought about leaving. But she found that her legs wouldn’t move.

"It’s fine, have a seat," said the effeminate man with a smile, then he looked to Alon and said, "I don’t mind at all what you do, but it’s best not to draw attention during this time. Among the members of the Association, there are plenty who would be willing to rid the community of nuisances."

"Yes, yes," Alon kept nodding, and inside, he rejoiced. He had always been afraid that his actions would displease this boss.

This man was the one who had pulled him out of prison, with an unfathomably deep background. And... his methods were exceedingly mysterious. The eerie painting was brought here by this boss.

Fortunately, it seemed that the boss didn’t care what he did at all.

Hearing that Luo Qiao was willing to help, Alon was extremely eager.

He had seen Yun Ting while helping the boss inspect the strange painting at Jiangyun High School.

At that moment, he made up his mind. Since the boss didn’t care at all, he could go ahead with his plans confidently.

Once this critical period passed, he’d surely have her.

Luo Qiao also sat obediently on the sofa, finding the effeminate man made her feel very strange. She dared not go against his words.

But the effeminate man looked at Luo Qiao for a while and then laughed, saying, "This Yun Ting you mentioned... seems very perfect?"

Luo Qiao was startled, pondered for a moment, and then nodded, "At least from my perspective, she is very perfect. Even though her family is not well-off, her grades, looks, and personality are all good. We are all quite... envious of her."

"What a coincidence," the effeminate man said with a smile, "I’ve recently been focusing on a research project by Rat. It appears that under the influence of certain stimuli from the outside world, some individuals undergo wonderful changes. Alon, are you suggesting that we use Yun Ting as a test subject?"

"If boss has taken an interest in her, I will make sure to bring her to you unharmed," Alon didn’t know what the experiment was about, thinking the boss was also interested in the girl. Although he was reluctant to give up the ’meat’ right at his mouth, he still promptly agreed, "How does that sound to you?"

"No need," said the effeminate man with a smile, "Just do as I say."

Yet in the next second, the effeminate man’s expression changed slightly.

...

Elsewhere, at the entrance of the Factory Building.

A bicycle slowly came to a stop by the roadside.

Riding the bike was a delicately handsome high school student, and on the back seat was a petite and cute girl. They looked like a brother and sister pair.
