Chapter 3588: Chapter 3580: Sneaky Maneuver
"Tribal sayings? What’s that?"
"It’s something like a family motto," Xiao Bing said:
"Just like in ancient times, big families would have family mottos to educate their offspring."
"I can understand the ancients doing this, but for the island Natives to do the same, I simply can’t fathom. Do they really deal with this stuff?"
"For now, it seems so, but it’s just a rough guess. The specifics might take some time to translate."
"Alright, I get it. Go on with your work."
The two chatted for a while and then Lin Yi ended the video call.
But he couldn’t focus on watching the movie anymore.
Sitting in the car, he rested his hands behind his head, his mind filled with thoughts about this matter.
The transaction involving the E-class serum was all fair and reasonable.
Keeping it was of no use to him.
Might as well exchange it for something beneficial to him.
The thing that baffled Lin Yi the most was the so-called family motto.
To the modern society, it’s a product of feudal backwardness.
But to the Natives from thousands of years ago, it must have been synonymous with a new civilization.
In such a society, the existence of sayings like this was unimaginable to Lin Yi.
So much so that it sent shivers down his spine.
Ring ring ring—
At that moment.
Lin Yi’s thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of his phone.
He saw it was a call from Chen Yuying.
"Hello."
"Where’s Tongtong?"
"Where? She’s gone to class. I’m waiting for her at the entrance."
"Her teacher called me, said she hasn’t shown up. You should go check on her. I tried calling, but her phone is off."
"Alright, got it."
After hanging up, Lin Yi checked the time.
It was already ten past two.
No wonder the teacher called Chen Yuying.
On a whim, Lin Yi tried calling Chen Yutong.
Phone was off.
Holding his phone, Lin Yi dialed Yan Ci.
"Director Lin, any instructions?"
On the phone, Yan Ci’s voice was enticing, stirring restlessness in him.
"Can you help me check if there’s a music festival in Zhong Hai today?"
"Hmm? There is indeed one. Why are you suddenly interested?"
"It’s something. Just help me check."
"No need to check, our company is one of the organizers. It’s at the Music Park on Fengqi Road. Just drive there and you’ll see."
"Got it."
Hanging up, Lin Yi drove towards Fengqi Road.
Finding Chen Yutong wasn’t difficult for Lin Yi.
A girl who hasn’t even graduated yet, her thoughts are simple.
She mentioned in the morning wanting to go to the music festival and skipped class in the afternoon.
The obvious place she’d be, naturally, was there.
Fengqi Road is on the outskirts of Zhong Hai.
It took about forty-plus minutes to get there.
Parking at the entrance.
He could already hear the loud music inside.
Standing outside, Lin Yi frowned.
Couldn’t understand what was so appealing about it?
Buying a ticket, Lin Yi entered the venue.
The stage design was very much in line with the current punk style.
Young fans were bouncing and singing loudly below the stage.
Some girls were so wrapped up in it they didn’t notice their own exhibitions.
With the large crowd in front, finding Chen Yutong wasn’t easy.
Lin Yi sent Yan Ci a message with Chen Yutong’s photo.
And instructed her on what to do.
All that was left was to wait.
The singer on stage finished performing two songs, and the music temporarily quietened down.
The fans also calmed down a bit.
In the front row under the stage, the fans had gone wild, waiting for the next singer to come on.
Chen Yutong was among them.
She had already changed into a sexy little black dress, with a large part of her chest exposed.
Beside her, there were two guys and a girl, all dressed very stylishly.
"Tongtong, you snuck out. Won’t your sister come and catch you?"
The girl next to Chen Yutong, named Zhou Yunxi, a close friend, said.
Coming from a well-off family, she belongs to the type who are always out and about.
"Don’t worry, my sister won’t find me."
"Didn’t she specifically get you a driver to watch over you?"
"Doesn’t matter if he’s watching, I snuck out and he doesn’t know where I am."
Chen Yutong raised her head and said:
"Stop overthinking it. We’re already here, just have fun."
"We’re worried you’ll suddenly get caught and it’ll ruin the mood."
"Don’t worry, my phone’s off. No one can find me," Chen Yutong said:
"After the festival, let’s hit the bar. I’ve been dying of boredom."
"Alright."
Suddenly!
All sound at the music festival stopped.
The fans, in high spirits, were momentarily stunned.
Not knowing what was happening.
Then, on the big screen, a photo appeared!
It was a selfie of Chen Yutong!
"Wow!"
A chorus of exclamations echoed through the venue.
"Is someone going to propose here?"
"Probably, what an extravagant setup."
"The girl in the photo is so lucky."
"Came for a music festival, and now this, haha..."
Standing at the front, Chen Yutong was dumbfounded.
She didn’t even have a partner.
How could someone propose to her?
"Tongtong, is this your admirer?" Zhou Yunxi excitedly said:
"Isn’t Zheng Ye pursuing you? Could it be him?"
"Possibly, Zheng Ye has been asking me about you these past few days. But you told me not to say anything, so I didn’t," said the male friend beside.
"That guy, just unbelievable, how am I supposed to face this..."
Even though she was complaining, Chen Yutong felt a little gleeful about such a spectacle.
Her vanity too got a boost.
Buzz buzz buzz—
At that moment, the sound system emitted a static buzz.
"Everyone, please note, the girl on the screen has a contagious disease. Everyone around her, please quickly move away."
"Huh?"
The announcement left everyone in shock.
They all glanced around, trying to locate Chen Yutong.
Soon, they spotted Chen Yutong standing at the front.
Instinctively, they stepped back, afraid of being infected.
Chen Yutong and her friends were bewildered as well.
They thought someone was going to confess, to satisfy her vanity.
Never expected they’d announce she had a contagious disease!
What the heck is this!
This is utter nonsense!
"Please, the fan on the screen, leave the venue immediately. Your attending doctor is waiting at the east entrance."
"Tongtong, I feel like someone’s deliberately messing with you," Zhou Yunxi whispered.
"Damn it, I’m going to see who it is!"
Chen Yutong turned around and left.
The people around her instinctively stepped back.
Clearing a wide path for her.
The four of them moved quickly, soon arriving at the east entrance of the venue.
From afar, Chen Yutong saw Lin Yi.
"So it’s him!"
