Part 18 Your First Surprise

Li Ze said in a low voice, "Tell me what that girl looks like."

Zhong Liang squinted his eyes and, using the reflection in the train's glass, quickly described the girl's appearance to Li Ze. "She's not very tall, has an oval face, and... well, she's very well-endowed and..."

"That's enough," Li Ze interrupted, stopping Zhong Liang from giving more details.

Zhong Liang's description was enough for Li Ze to confirm that the girl was the same one from the original story who traveled with Ye Tian. It must be the world's will correcting the plot—although the timing had changed, many things remained the same.

Of course, if Li Ze found this girl in advance and kidnapped her, the storyline would change completely. As long as the distortion was significant enough, everything could be turned upside down.

At that moment, a peculiar smile appeared on Li Ze's face. He asked Zhong Liang, "Help me check if there are two people in the carriage behind the target. They should be tall and thin, with one having thinning hair..."

"Huh? Yes."

Though puzzled, Zhong Liang quickly acted, moving through the rows of seats to the next carriage. Pretending to look around casually, he spotted the two individuals in a corner.

"Young Master, I found them. They’re in the next carriage."

Zhong Liang whispered urgently. The two were tall and thin, with one having a mole at the corner of his mouth. They both looked shifty and untrustworthy.

Li Ze chuckled.

Sure enough, nothing had changed.

The two people Zhong Liang had been searching for, though unnamed in the plot, were minor characters.

They were professional swindlers who had the misfortune of tricking Ye Tian.

With the protagonist aura surrounding Ye Tian, he naturally couldn't be fooled, and even managed to take their wallets.

It's considered the first small satisfying moment in the plot.

And Li Ze planned to use this incident to give Ye Tian a big surprise!

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

He instructed Zhong Liang, "Follow my instructions later..."

"Yes!"

After giving the instructions, Li Ze found a reason to leave through a side door. Once outside, a driver pulled the car out of the garage and waited at the villa's entrance.

"To the train station," Li Ze said.

Confident but not arrogant, he couldn't afford to be careless against the protagonist Ye Tian. Despite having everything planned, Li Ze decided to personally oversee the situation on-site for peace of mind.

The car started slowly, heading towards its destination.

"Vroom vroom~"

Amidst the roaring sound, the train pulled into the station.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the train is now arriving at Haiqing City station. Passengers heading to Haiqing City, please prepare to disembark. Doors will open on the right side..."

Click

Doors opened one by one.

Countless people surged down from the train.

Among them, a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes also disembarked, carrying a bulky, rustic backpack.

"Ah, finally arrived at Haiqing City," thought Ye Tian to himself.

At that moment, the girl sitting beside him on the train leaned forward, cheeks flushed with admiration, eyes sparkling with stars.

"Um, Ye Tian, could I have your contact information?"

Ye Tian with a sly grin, "Of course you can..."

The pretty girl made such a request, how could he possibly refuse? So he immediately took out his phone and exchanged contact information with her.

"Great!" The girl exclaimed excitedly.

They proceeded together along the platform, chatting happily as they made their way to the waiting hall.

"Oh, my contact said they're waiting for me at gate three," Ye Tian mentioned casually while checking a message on his phone.

"By the way, Ye Tian, those two guys at the station were obviously scammers. Why did you actually give them a thousand bucks?" the girl couldn't help but ask suddenly.

Even she could tell how amateurish their tricks were; she almost called the train staff herself. Yet Ye Tian fell for it!

Ye Tian chuckled and unzipped his large backpack to show her.

"Look, what's this?" he asked curiously, showing her a stack of cash inside along with two black wallets.

"What's this..." The girl leaned in curiously, surprised to find a thousand yuan in cash inside, along with two black wallets.

"That's the thousand bucks I gave them earlier. I took it back myself. As for these wallets, consider them a bonus," Ye Tian explained with a smile.

The girl was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. "Those two scammers got what they deserved! Who told them to cheat people? And Ye Tian, you're so clever! I had no idea how you managed that!"

Hearing the praise from the beauty, Ye Tian smiled proudly.

He took their wallets not only to teach them a lesson and make them understand the cost of trying to scam him but also to impress the girl!

"Oh, what's so impressive about it?"

Just then, a voice suddenly interrupted from nearby.

Ye Tian and the girl turned to see several inspectors in uniforms standing in front of them, led by one who spoke coldly, "Someone has reported you for suspected theft. Please show your identification and come with us."

Ye Tian was bewildered.

What the fuck is going on?
