Chapter 452: The Secret of the Society
Xue Xi tightened her grip on the mouse.
She stared fixedly at the computer screen. She swore that this was the most bizarre scene she had ever seen in her life!
“Sister Xi, what’s wrong?”
Beside her, Xie Yingying sensed that something was amiss. As she asked, she walked over to look at her computer screen.
The moment she looked over, Xue Xi hurriedly closed the window and the computer.
She stood up. “Nothing.”
Xue Xi lowered her eyes and took a deep breath.
She finally understood why Jing Fei had said that Liu Zhao had committed suicide.
Xue Xi first went to the balcony and washed her face with cold water. After calming down, she realized that there was a WeChat message on her phone. It was from that unknown number: “President, the club will be gathering tomorrow. Will you be able to come and meet everyone?”
Xue Xi stared at this message.
A chill ran down her spine.
She felt that if she really went to this place, she would probably open another door in the world.
She thought about it and finally replied: “Time, location.”
She would deal with whatever came her way. Fear had never been in her dictionary.
…
That night, Xue Xi was still feeling uneasy as she lay on the bed.
She had a dream.
In the dream, Ji Silin appeared and Xiang Huai appeared. The short boy from the club also appeared.
The three of them stood in each of her three books and reached out to her.
Ji Silin said, “Xixi, come.”
Xiang Huai smiled. “Little kid, come here.”
The short boy shouted, “President, come to me!”
Xue Xi jolted awake.
She opened her eyes and realized that the sky was already bright. She looked at the time and found that it was 6 AM.
She took a deep breath, got out of bed, washed up, and walked out with the English dictionary. She walked around the tree path in the dormitory building and memorized some English words. After two rounds, she calmed down.
At this moment, she took out her phone and realized that the unknown number had sent her another message: “President, don’t bring your boyfriend! Our club has a huge secret. All the members are in a state of confidentiality!”
Xue Xi replied: “Okay.”
She realized that this group of people was afraid of Xiang Huai, just like how the rest of the people in the Moguls’ Group were afraid of Omnipotent Boss.
She shook her head and abandoned these thoughts. Suddenly, she saw Jing Fei swaying in front. He was wearing casual clothes, and because his face looked young, it would not be inappropriate to mistake him for a university student.
When he saw Xue Xi, Jing Fei’s eyes lit up. “Sister Xi!”
Xue Xi: “…Hello.”
The pigeon sprinted to her. “Sister Xi, I’m going to stay behind to handle the case. I’m scared alone. You must help me!”
Xue Xi: “…Oh.”
Jing Fei heaved a sigh of relief. “Sister-in-law… Sister Xi is the best. Do you know who is so heartless as to ignore me?”
Xue Xi: “Who?”
Jing Fei dared not say who it was. After all, Sister Xi still did not know that his boss was Xiang Huai.
He chuckled. “My boss!”
Xue Xi suddenly understood. “Is it my teacher, Omnipotent Boss?”
Jing Fei: “…You can say that.”
Xue Xi suddenly realized, “He’s in the capital?”
Jing Fei: “…”
Xue Xi: “Then I can meet him.”
Jing Fei: “!”
He coughed. “Erm, Sister Xi, I still have something to do. I’ll leave first!”
“Mhm.”
Just as Xue Xi replied, Jing Fei had already run far away.
Xue Xi: “…”
She sent Omnipotent Boss a WeChat message: “Teacher, I heard that you’re also in the capital. Where are you? I’ll go visit you.”
After she sent the message, Omnipotent Boss did not reply to her at once.
Xue Xi threw her phone into her pocket and went to have breakfast. She then returned to the dormitory to put down her book and followed the address on the message to look for the club.
The club’s gathering location was very strange. It was actually in the activity building.
It was on the 19th floor of the activity building, but the elevator only went up to the 18th floor.
Xue Xi had never known that this building had a 19th floor.
She took the elevator. When she reached the 18th floor, she followed the location indicated on the message and found a very secretive staircase.
Following the staircase, she slowly reached the 19th level.
There were no lights on the 19th floor. The entire renovated wall and floor were made of cement. Moreover, there was only one room on the 19th floor.
Xue Xi took two steps in that direction and saw a piece of paper pasted at the door. On it was written: TTXD Club.
… It looked very shabby.
Xue Xi pursed her lips. Just as she was about to push open the door, a voice suddenly sounded behind her. “What are you doing here?”
Xue Xi: “?”
She paused and turned around to see Gu Yunqing standing behind her. She stared at Xue Xi in surprise and then at the room. She frowned and slowly said, “Can you come here? Hurry up and scram!”
Xue Xi: “?”
She frowned. “Why can’t I come?”
Gu Yunqing sneered. “Do you know what kind of club this is? Our club is very mysterious. Everyone in the club has a special identity. How can we allow outsiders to come up here casually? You must have come here by mistake or are very curious about our club, right? But let me tell you, Xue Xi, this is not a place where you can come as you please! Even Qian Zheng is not qualified to come here! I advise you to scram if you know what’s good for you. Otherwise, if the people inside find out, you won’t have a good time!”
Xue Xi was surprised. “No one else can come here?”
Gu Yunqing raised her chin arrogantly. “Yes, our club is very special in the school. It doesn’t belong to any department. Oh, I know. Did you hear something and want to join our club? Ha, let me tell you, our club is not a place that just anyone can enter!”
Everyone in the TTXD club was formidable. Even Gu Yunqing was nothing compared to them, let alone Xue Xi.
Did she really think that being the top scholar in the college entrance examination was amazing?
After saying this, Gu Yunqing said proudly, “There are only twelve members in our club including me. The worst one won’t be someone like you. Let me tell you, good grades are nothing in our club. If you want to join our club… Ha, you’re not qualified enough. Let me ask you now, are you leaving or not?”
Xue Xi ignored her.
Gu Yunqing took a step forward and grabbed Xue Xi. She wanted to push her away, but before her hand could touch Xue Xi, she grabbed her wrist and yanked it. Gu Yunqing was instantly controlled by Xue Xi!
Gu Yunqing twisted her wrist so hard that it hurt. She shouted, “What are you doing? Let me go at once!”
Xue Xi’s eyes were calm and her expression was cold. “If I don’t, what then?”
Gu Yunqing was furious. “If you don’t let go, I’ll make you suffer!”
Just as she said this, a voice suddenly came from behind. “What are you guys doing?”
The two of them turned around in unison and Xue Xi saw the short man in the jeans standing behind them, looking at them with a frown.
When Gu Yunqing saw him, her eyes lit up and she said, “You came at the right time. This person is secretly investigating outside our club and even laid her hand on me. She must be trying to find out about us. Hurry and throw her out!”
All these years, there had been many people who came to their club to ask around. Some people dared to enter their rooms and, unsurprisingly, would be thrown out!
Hmph, Xue Xi still wants to come in?
Dream on!
Unexpectedly—
