"Alright, sit down." Zhou Ling Yun lifted his chin, "Don't just stand there. I'm only here to have a chat with you."

Bai Luo Yin grabbed a chair and sat in front of the bathroom door as to prevent a certain animal that love to wallow in jealousy and explode in rage from busting out if he heard any irritating words.

"Why are you sitting so far?" Zhou Ling Yun was puzzled.

Not knowing exactly how to respond, Bai Luo Yin weaved a preposterous excuse. "I like the smell of the bathroom."

Zhou Ling Yun was slight taken aback, "...how about we go chat in there?"

"There's no need to!" Bai Luo Yin swiftly reached out to decline, "Just let me enjoy it alone!"

Zhou Ling Yun sat as steady as Mount Tai in front of Bai Luo Yin and looked at him with an expression in his eyes that he could not decipher. After a long moment of silence, the corner of Zhou Ling Yun's mouth rose before he calmly said, "I've already captured Gu Hai."

"What?"

Bai Luo Yin's train of thought went haywire with shock. How was he discovered so easily when he had been hidden so well?

When Gu Hai—who was listening from the other side of the door—heard those words, he immediately wanted to open the door. But just as he was about to turn the doorknob, he heard another sentence. "He's in my office!"

As a result, Bai Luo Yin firmly closed the door that was slightly cracked open and mentally heave a sigh of relief. Geez, got me all nervous when he was actually talking about Gu Yang.

"What's the matter with you?" Zhou Ling Yun said, casting a glance at the door behind Bai Luo Yin.

Bai Luo Yin replied with a sarcastic tone, "It's the wind."

Zhou Ling Yun simply nodded and did not question any further.

Straightening himself, Bai Luo Yin couldn't help but to ask, "How did you capture him?"

"When he came out of your dorm earlier today, I captured him by force as he was leaving."

As Bai Luo Yin listened, his expression became that of astonishment. Damn, it's really not Gu Yang's day! First, he was beaten by Gu Hai, then he actually got captured by Zhou Ling Yun on his way out...thinking that, made him feel somewhat sorry for him.

The moment Zhou Ling Yun caught sight of Bai Luo Yin's expression, he threw in a few kind words to appease him. "Don't worry. Since he's your little brother, I'll definitely treat him well."

Zhou Ling Yun especially emphasized the words, 'treat him well'.

Bai Luo Yin adapted a sympathetic attitude of siding with the evildoer. "Wing Commander, you don't have to take me into consideration. It's a matter between the two of you, as an outsider, it's not good for me to get involve."

"But I heard that you two have an exceptionally good relationship!" Zhou Ling Yun said, trying to probe for more answers.

Not one to back down on his words, Bai Luo Yin immediately denied that statement. "My relationship with him is normal. Think about it, we are not blood related and we only met at the age of seventeen. Not long after, I enlisted so there weren't really any time to deepen our feelings."

"Since you put it like that, I can be at ease!" Zhou Ling Yun carried a generous expression, "You already know that the more ruthless I treat someone, the more it proves how much I am fond of that person. I was merely afraid that when the time comes, and you see the large-scale of ruthlessness, it might make you hate me."
