Anyone who ranked C or below would be destroyed……

  The news Lin Yan had received tonight had dealt her a heavy blow.

  She had always cherished the hope that her brother would be alive in another corner of the world. Regardless of the state he was in, as long as he remained alive, she would definitely find him.

  However, this piece of news had nearly smashed all her hopes……

  Lin Yan stood on the balcony in a reverie as the icy night wind blew against her face.

  She was deep in thought when her phone rang. An unknown number was calling her.

  Lin Yan answered the call. “Hello, who is this?”


  “Big Sister-In-Law, it’s me.”


  The gentle voice on the other end startled Lin Yan, who took some time to recover. “Pei…… Mr. Pei……”


  “Sorry for calling you this late. Did I disturb your rest?” Pei Nanxu sounded rather exhausted.

  “No, no, I’m not asleep. What’s the matter?” replied Lin Yan hurriedly.

  Pei Nanxu replied, “Indeed, there is something…… I may have to ask your help with……”


  Lin Yan asked, “Help?”


  What could she possibly help Pei Nanxu with?

  “Yeah……” Pei Nanxu fell silent for some time before he said, “Can you call my Big Brother now?”


  “Huh?” Lin Yan was puzzled. “You want me to call Mr. Pei now?”


  Pei Nanxu reiterated, “Yeah.”


  Lin Yan answered, “But…… Why do I have to call him so suddenly? What should I say?”


  Pei Nanxu quipped, “Just say anything when you call him. Perhaps you can ask him out tomorrow night……”


  “Errr……” Lin Yan felt completely lost.

  Why would she have to call Pei Yucheng so abruptly?

  She had been racking her brains for ways to break up with him…… Naturally, she should minimize any contact with him first……

  Pei Nanxu spoke earnestly once more. “Please…… Can you?”


  This was her idol’s request…… How could she say no to him?

  Lin Yan agreed readily. “Sure, I’ll call him.”


  “Thank you!” Pei Nanxu heaved a sigh of relief.

  Even though she did not know why Pei Nanxu had made such a request, he sounded really earnest and desperate. This should be important.

  Lin Yan did what Pei Nanxu had requested and called Pei Yucheng immediately.

  “Hello, Mr. Pei……”


  Her call got through in no time, and she heard a deep voice. “Looking for me?”


  Lin Yan had no idea if her mind was playing tricks on her. It was the same familiar voice, yet it sounded really scary.

  Lin Yan said without mulling this over, “Errr…… Yeah…… Tomorrow night…… Can we meet?”


  Pei Yucheng replied, “Okay.”


  The feeling she’d had vanished like an illusion and Pei Yucheng sounded like his usual self again.

  Lin Yan ended the call soon and sent Pei Nanxu a message. ‘Mr. Pei, I’ve already called him and asked to meet him tomorrow.’


  ‘Great, thank you so much!’


  ‘You’re welcome.’


  Lin Yan collapsed against the wall and sighed to herself.

  It was easy to make a call. However, what should she do tomorrow when she saw him?

  She was in a predicament, as she couldn’t say no to Pei Nanxu either. From his perspective, Pei Yucheng was her boyfriend, so calling him to ask him out was perfectly normal.
