Scheming white lotus (4.06) - I don't like men

---

Today, Shen Ze didn't play truant but lay sprawled on his desk for the entire day.

Xiang Han didn't understand what Shen Ze did every night, it couldn't be that he was practising his knife-play everyday, right? Thinking of that knife once again, he hurriedly flipped through the information of this world once more.

Shen Ze's case was merely a passing murder case and by the time the protagonist shou traced it back to him, he was already in his third year. As for what happened in between, the novel did not contain much information. It was only after he was arrested that a sentence, briefly summarising his relationship with Xue Ling was written as well as the short period of time he had spent together with the protagonist gong.

But details such as when he got to know the protagonist gong and went under his wing was not mentioned at all. Xiang Han could only infer the timing according to the protagonist gong's timeline. When the protagonist shou cracked the case behind Shen Ze, the protagonist gong had already left prison for a full year and adding on to the six years he had spent behind bars, meaning he must have been imprisoned seven years ago.

At that time, Shen Ze was in his third year but had fallen into a pit dug by the original host and a scum man, causing him to miss the national exams and as a result, had to repeat a year.

Therefore, taking these seven years into account, the protagonist gong should have entered prison when Shen Ze was still in his first year. Having calculated to this point, the only time where Shen Ze and the protagonist gong could have come into contact would be when he was still in his first year, which should be around...now.

Xiang Han wrote everything down on a piece of paper and soon understood where Shen Ze must have been going every day when he didn't turn up for class. The protagonist gong was currently operating some underground business and Shen Ze was most likely his underling, running errands for him. No wonder his proficiency in handling knives was so high, it was highly probable that he learnt his skills by fighting with others.

Xiang Han looked at the snoozing person, hating iron for not becoming steel. Not knowing how to study at such a young age but messing around and helping the villain? Your boss is about to be arrested.

Moreover, of all the people he could hang around with, he just had to hang around the protagonist gong. Before he met the protagonist shou, he was extremely pretentious and domineering but after meeting, his personality underwent a great change. After learning that Shen Ze was in trouble, his first reaction was, "I'm done for, my wife needs to work overtime again." Followed by this was, "Turns out, the one in trouble is an old underling, I just need to find him a lawyer."

Ah, this sort of uncultured big brother, what good will come out from following him? Xiang Han only felt that he had to quickly pull Shen Ze out of this mess. Although the plot did not mention anything, when the protagonist gong went to prison, how could his underlings remain unaffected?

Most likely it was due to Shen Ze's young age and his contacts that he was the least affected and was even able to continue his schooling.

Shen Ze slept for the entire day, waking right when only five minutes were left to the end of school; he suddenly sat up and asked, "Which lesson is this?"

Xiang Han was startled and replied in a small voice, "The last class."

Shen Ze only gave an, "En" before closing his eyes again. When the bell rang, he immediately left, angering the teacher who wanted to drag the lesson on for a couple more minutes.
