Transmigrating Into a Book, the Villain Becomes the White Moonlight!

31: Chapter 31 This girl took the wrong medicineLin Wan felt conflicted deep down.

”I... I never said I had to marry him! I even hate him!”

”But... even if I don’t like him, I’m still his future fiancée in name!”

”By doing this, where does he leave the Lin family’s reputation and my own dignity?!”

Two conflicting emotions clashed violently within her, making her expression turn even colder. The low pressure radiating from her almost caused the air to freeze.

For the entire day, she hadn’t uttered a single word, and even her breath carried a bone-chilling coldness.

The surrounding classmates, including Zhou Feng, clearly felt the ”do not approach” aura radiating from the class monitor. Naturally, no one dared to provoke her at a time like this.

In the car after school.

As soon as Lin Wan sat in the car and closed the door, she could no longer hold back. She spoke to Uncle Fu in the driver’s seat, her voice stiff as she struggled to suppress her emotions:

”Uncle Fu, where did Su Bai... go today?”

She tried to make her inquiry sound like a casual mention.

Through the rearview mirror, Uncle Fu saw Lin Wan’s tense, displeasure-filled face. Still wearing that kind and impeccable smile, he answered in a steady tone, ”Miss Lin, the young master went to the company today, mainly to inspect the development progress of his game project.”

”To the company?” Lin Wan’s slender eyebrows immediately furrowed, a hint of doubt rising in her heart.

Was he completely unaware of the uproar on the Campus Network? Or... did he just not care at all?

”Was he at the company all day?” she pressed, her tone unconsciously taking on a hint of interrogation.

”Yes, Miss Lin. The young master stayed at the company for quite a while and discussed many things with the development team.” Uncle Fu’s answer was airtight, his tone so sincere that it was impossible to doubt him.

Lin Wan pursed her lips and stopped speaking.

Uncle Fu’s attitude was too natural and frank; it didn’t sound like a fabricated lie at all.

But... what could Su Bai possibly do at a game company?

Someone like him, who didn’t even bother to flip through a textbook—could he understand code?

Could he understand technical discussions?

She was deeply skeptical.

The car fell into silence, save for the faint hum of the engine running smoothly.

Lin Wan gazed at the street scenery rushing past the window, but the irritability and doubt in her heart didn’t diminish in the slightest.

After a long while, she spoke again, her question even more direct this time:

”Uncle Fu, those... things Su Bai does outside, how much do you know?” She tried to fish for information from the butler who was closest to Su Bai.

Uncle Fu’s hands on the steering wheel were steady as a rock, and his voice remained calm. ”Miss Lin, I am only responsible for the young master’s travel and some daily arrangements. I am not clear about the young master’s private affairs, nor is it appropriate for me to ask.”

”Then where does he usually go... besides school and home?” Lin Wan didn’t give up and continued to probe in a different way.

”You know the young master’s temperament; he prefers... quiet.” Uncle Fu chose his words carefully. ”Most of the time, he likes to stay at home, watch movies, or play with some novel electronic products. Occasionally, when the mood strikes, he’ll go on a short trip to relax.”

Uncle Fu’s answer was perfect; he addressed the questions without revealing any substantive information, skillfully avoiding all clues that might point to Mu Xue or those hotels.

Listening to these steady, faultless answers, the sense of helplessness and that inexplicable anger in Lin Wan’s heart only burned more intensely.

Lin Wan took a deep breath. ”Uncle Fu, take me to him.”

”Right now?” Through the rearview mirror, a flash of genuine surprise crossed Uncle Fu’s eyes.

He thought to himself: Has the young master’s skill in picking up girls improved again? Before, he only knew how to throw money around crudely. Is he playing hard to get now, enough to make someone as proud as Miss Lin seek him out voluntarily?

”Right now.” Lin Wan’s voice carried an urgency that even she didn’t fully understand.

”Very well, Miss Lin. However, I must first call to confirm the young master’s current location.” Uncle Fu maintained his professional respect and then dialed Su Bai’s number using the car’s system.

The phone rang only a few times before being picked up.

”Young Master,” Uncle Fu spoke, his voice steady as usual. ”Miss Lin says she wants to see you. May I ask where you are right now?”

Hearing Uncle Fu’s words, Su Bai’s tone carried obvious surprise: ”She’s looking for me?”

The background was exceptionally quiet, revealing no clues.

”What does she want with me?” Su Bai asked instinctively, feeling a bit baffled.

Wasn’t this little brat always ignoring him and treating him like air?

What kind of act was she putting on today?

”Where are you?” Lin Wan ignored Su Bai’s question and asked coldly into the car’s microphone, the dissatisfaction in her tone almost overflowing.

”I’m busy, what’s up?”

This girl has definitely taken the wrong medicine!

Su Bai thought to himself, Usually she won’t even look me in the eye, and today she’s actually tracking my whereabouts?

Lin Wan was infuriated by his dismissive attitude. No longer beating around the bush, she cut straight to the chase: ”Have you seen the Campus Network?”

She wanted to see how Su Bai would explain the storm brewing all over the city.

”I saw it.” Su Bai’s answer was flat and calm, without even a hint of guilt or embarrassment, as if he wasn’t the Protagonist being discussed.

These words were like a block of ice, instantly choking Lin Wan.

All her prepared questions, sarcasms, and even a sliver of help she might offer—something she herself was unwilling to admit—froze in her throat.

That’s right, she didn’t actually want to care about this mess in the beginning.

Su Bai misbehaving outside—what did it have to do with her?

But... sitting in the car, the contents of those unsightly posts and that inexplicable stifling anger in her chest had somehow driven her to have Uncle Fu make this call.

Perhaps, subconsciously, she wanted to question his absurdity as a fiancée, or at least a friend, or even... see if he needed to join forces to deal with this storm?

Or maybe, she just wanted an excuse to scold him harshly and vent her dissatisfaction?

But Su Bai’s completely indifferent, even slightly impatient tone was like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing all her surging emotions.

Her pride wouldn’t allow her to continue questioning; it would only make her seem more ridiculous and delusional.
