Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 687 - 110 What I Said Was Absolutely True

"If you don’t let go now, I’m going to report you to the principal for harboring indecent intentions towards me."

Li Mumu said sternly with a cold face.

"The principal is not a fool; he won’t believe such a thing. If I really had indecent intentions, would I be only holding onto your hand?"

Wang Yunxiao pressed down on Li Mumu’s wrist, his fingertips exerting slight pressure, causing a pained expression to instantly appear on her face.

"You’re hurting me!"

"I’m helping your blood circulation!"

Wang Yunxiao laughed and said, "It’s surprising to see that you, a young lady who returned from overseas, still hold such feudal thoughts in this day and age."

Li Mumu coldly snorted, "That’s not feudal thinking, that’s good upbringing from my family, understanding the principle that men and women should not touch hands freely. How can you claim you have no other thoughts when you take liberties with me like this?"

"I wouldn’t dare."

Li Mumu: "???"

"I have plenty of thoughts in my mind."

Wang Yunxiao said unabashedly, "For example, wanting to advance my relationship with you, Miss, and also fearing that you might not fancy me."

"Your concerns are indeed well-founded."

"So, having finally come upon this opportunity to hold your hand openly, how could I possibly let it go easily?"

"How can you have the face to utter such vulgar words?"

"Can a man who minds his face get a wife?"

"..."

Alright, Wang Yunxiao, you’re seeking your own death!

Li Mumu was so angry she felt itchy in her teeth.

Her nails felt itchy too.

Then she sharply noticed Wang Yunxiao’s gaze fixated on her fingernails.

Shit! Almost fooled by him!

Wang Yunxiao’s attention was indeed on Li Mumu’s fingernails; he was very curious how these soft and delicate fingertips with their neatly trimmed nails could gouge flesh from a person’s face.

Others wield swords that can project Sword Qi, can you also emit the Six Meridian Divine Sword?

And with your feet, can you shoot out foot odor...

He patiently waited for a while, but Li Mumu didn’t react.

Looking up, he saw the girl blushing, slightly turning her head away.

The library suddenly quieted down.

Wang Yunxiao: "???"

Seems like the atmosphere is off?

Li Mumu bit her lip, staying silent.

What’s this? Are you acting bashful now?

Wang Yunxiao raised an eyebrow and said, "Give me your other hand as well."

Unexpectedly, she obediently handed over her other hand.

"Who knows if you’re sincere or just playing the rogue..."

"What?"

Wang Yunxiao almost didn’t catch it, but Li Mumu turned her head away with a flushed face as if the words weren’t spoken by her.

Don’t think I can’t hear you clearly just because you’re speaking softly! I can clearly hear every fly in the next-door restroom!

"Of course I’m sincere!"

Wang Yunxiao said earnestly, "If you don’t believe me, ask my brothers. The words from my mouth are as firm as nails spit – Laozi never plays with feigned emotion!"

Li Mumu looked at him dimly, her face carrying a touch of shyness mixed with timidity.

"Really?"

"One hundred percent true! Li Mumu, I’ve set my sights on you!"

"And what about your wife?"

"You’ll be the main, and she’ll be the concubine."

Dammit, fists don’t lie!

A vein popped on Li Mumu’s forehead.

"Please, let go of my hand."

The moment Wang Yunxiao released her, Li Mumu raised her hand and slapped him.

"Shameless! Get lost!"

"Just kidding..."

"Bro, get lost."

Turning away from the library, both Wang Yunxiao and Li Mumu’s expressions cooled simultaneously.

Nothing came out of the probing.

Wang Yunxiao wiped his face; Li Mumu’s slap didn’t leave any trace on his cheek at all.

She’s a suspect, but that doesn’t mean she’s the Red-Clothed Woman Ghost.

It’s also possible she’s like Zhou Qing, someone affected by a Temporal Tide resulting in a dual existence or something similar.

Can’t jump to conclusions yet.

If there’s nothing to be gained from probing Li Mumu, then another angle must be pursued.

Start by figuring out the origins of the Red-Clothed Woman Ghost.

Arriving at the school’s communications office, Wang Yunxiao dialed the Church’s number.

"Oh? Section Chief Wang! What’s up, Mu Yusheng got someone bitten?"

Veronica’s hearty laugh came through the phone.

"No, the kid’s pretty well-behaved."

That kid is a real piece of work, as compliant as a good little grandchild when Bai Shanshan is around, not daring to make a peep.

"Been busy lately?"

"Busy, busy to the point of puking... What’s up? Out with it!"

"It’s not convenient to talk over the phone, how about we meet up for a massage?"

"Alright, the usual place tomorrow night?"

"The usual place, my treat."

"Sounds good!"

Hanging up the phone, Wang Yunxiao saw the security guard uncle casting a sly glance his way.

"Yuanxiao, you’ve got a wife at home..."

"Home is different from the outside world."

Wang Yunxiao smiled and didn’t bother to explain further.

...

Meanwhile, Li Mumu stood with her arms wrapped around herself by the windowsill, her mind racing.

"What do you think he actually knows?"

"So what if he knows?"

Wendy countered listlessly, "If he knows, he knows. Do you really care that much about how you appear in his eyes?"

"What do you think his identity is?"

"A loafer at school?"

"A loafer at school who’s got nothing better to do than attend an auction? And is trying to investigate the Red-Clothed Woman Ghost?"

"Isn’t he an informant for the police? Maybe he also works for the Special Service Bureau."

"But I’ve checked with the Special Service Bureau."

"Could it be that your security clearance is higher, and a loafer like him couldn’t access it?"

"How could there be such a convenient coincidence? Do you think it’s possible he’s a spy for the group that Shen Qingxi is investigating?"

Wendy fell silent for a long while, puzzled, "Why would you think that?"

"Last time I went to the Seaside District, he happened to be there with his brothers... And then, as you know, the Shen Family just suddenly collapsed."

Li Mumu felt more and more uneasy the more she thought about it.

"And then there was the time when Li Lingling suddenly popped up, saying she wanted to escape, but what was she really up to? What did she do in the time I was away?"

"And about King Mu’s Mansion, why did he suddenly bring up my dad’s connection with King Mu’s Mansion?"

"This kid’s identity is definitely not simple!"

"So what are you planning to do?"

"I’m going to find out what he’s really about first."

"How? By holding hands?"

Li Mumu couldn’t help but roll her eyes, "I was just acting with him!"

"Really?"

"One hundred percent real! Would I be interested in someone like him?"

"Well, who knows?"

"Hehe," Wendy chuckled, "It’s okay to fool me, we’ve known each other for so many years, I won’t mock you... just don’t deceive yourself."

"It’s absolutely impossible!"

Li Mumu was brimming with confidence.

"Just watch how I play with the emotions of a scumbag like him!"
