To be honest, Wang Ziyan's attitude towards Xie Fang left Bing Tianyi feeling somewhat incredulous once again.
Although over the past two years of interaction, Wang Ziyan had significantly improved her standing in Bing Tianyi's heart, he often recalled the incident from years ago when the prank by Wang Ziyan and Huang Ke led to the deaths of the three of them.
This girl’s coldness, ruthlessness, and that venomous heart were enough to make any man hesitate.
However, ever since returning to high school life, Bing Tianyi felt that Wang Ziyan was undergoing constant changes; everything seemed so natural in comparison.
Seeing Wang Ziyan say this, Xie Fang smiled and nodded, softly saying, "Miss, I’ll go out to buy groceries now. You all sit tight."
"Alright, you go ahead," Wang Ziyan replied with a smile and a nod.
Once Xie Fang left through the door, Wang Ziyan, feeling quite excited, smiled at Bing Tianyi, Mo Yonggang, and Old Huang, saying, "What are you all still standing there for? Hurry up and take a seat. Do you expect me to invite you to sit down?"
"I say, Miss Wang, what’s gotten into you today? Your attitude towards me has suddenly changed," Bing Tianyi asked with feigned curiosity.
Although there hadn’t been any intense conflicts between Bing Tianyi and Wang Ziyan before, after such a long time, he still felt a certain distance between them. This sense of distance was indescribable.
Upon hearing Bing Tianyi's words, Wang Ziyan slightly furrowed her brows and pretended to be curious as she asked, "What nonsense are you talking about? How has my attitude suddenly changed? Haven't I always treated you this way?"
While saying this, Wang Ziyan thought to herself that it should be him whose attitude had changed. She recalled their first meeting when she gave him a phone and he actually threw it on the ground in front of the whole class. Looking back now, Wang Ziyan felt that this incident would likely remain unforgettable for her.
Noticing the strange smile on Wang Ziyan's face, Bing Tianyi, sitting on the sofa, calmly smiled and said, "What’s wrong? You seem to be thinking about something."
"Uncle Huang, do you remember that year when I gave a phone to our classmate?" Wang Ziyan turned her head and asked Old Huang with great interest.
Old Huang awkwardly smiled and shook his head, saying, "I really forgot about that."
After this was said, Bing Tianyi, sitting nearby, felt a bit embarrassed. Hearing Wang Ziyan say this, he naturally recalled the events from back then. However, he had indeed been too angry at the time and had forgotten other matters.
"Well, it's all in the past now, isn't it? What do you mean by saying that?" Bing Tianyi said with a wry smile.
Wang Ziyan chuckled and shook her head, saying, "No, I actually find it quite interesting."
"Then go ahead and say it; I’ve pretty much forgotten everything anyway." Bing Tianyi also played the fool, thinking that if he took things too seriously in front of a woman like Wang Ziyan, he would truly lose.
The group chatted in the living room for a while when Bing Tianyi suddenly thought of someone. Ever since the incident with Qiangzi was resolved, it seemed like this person had never appeared again.
Thinking of this, Bing Tianyi couldn't help but curiously ask Wang Ziyan, "I want to inquire about someone; I wonder if you can tell me."
"Who is it? Are you interested in one of our classmates again?" Wang Ziyan teased Bing Tianyi.
Bing Tianyi smiled wryly and shook his head, thinking that this girl was really something. Ever since what happened with Chen Qian, he hadn't really interacted with any girls at school.
"What I want to ask about is Ouyang Tian, Ouyang Xue's father. Wasn't he always your bodyguard? Where has he gone now?" Bing Tianyi asked with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Wang Ziyan didn't think much and looked at Bing Tianyi, speaking clearly, "Alright, you don't need to explain; I get it now. You must be interested in Ouyang Xue, right?"
Of course, in Wang Ziyan's mind, the last thing she wanted to hear was Bing Tianyi asking about any girl. Just like now, when Bing Tianyi inquired about Ouyang Tian, Wang Ziyan unconsciously thought of this.
Bing Tianyi felt helpless and curiously asked Wang Ziyan, "I say, Miss Wang, what's going on with you today? Have I always been like this in your eyes?"
"Almost." Wang Ziyan nodded without thinking much.
Bing Tianyi was completely speechless, sitting on the sofa and chuckling awkwardly. At that moment, Old Huang chimed in, "Hey, Wang, actually, when Bing asked about Ouyang Tian, he wanted to thank him. If it weren't for his help back then, we probably wouldn't have been able to resolve the Qiangzi issue so quickly."
Hearing Old Huang's words, Wang Ziyan suddenly had an idea and quickly smiled, "Of course I know that. However, after Ouyang Tian handled the Qiangzi situation two years ago, he resigned not long after coming to Lan City. He mentioned wanting to do something else, but my father isn't clear on the specifics."
Upon hearing this, Bing Tianyi became even more curious. It was obvious that someone like Ouyang Tian was not an ordinary person, and the fact that he helped them with the Qiangzi matter indicated that he was not a bad person.
Thinking about it, first serving as a bodyguard for Wang Debiao and then choosing to resign after resolving the Qiangzi issue—could there be more to this?
"You usually get along well with Ouyang Xue. Could you call her and ask where her father is now?" Bing Tianyi pondered and asked Wang Ziyan.
Wang Ziyan raised an eyebrow playfully and asked Bing Tianyi, "If I ask her, how do you plan to repay me?"
"Well..." Bing Tianyi thought for a moment and then looked at Wang Ziyan with a smug smile. "How about I give you a sweet kiss?"
"Shameless! Is that really a repayment?" Wang Ziyan frowned helplessly at Bing Tianyi.
"Isn't it?"
"You're being a rogue." Wang Ziyan suddenly shot back at Bing Tianyi.
Bing Tianyi couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this. Looking at Wang Ziyan, he said frankly, "Alright, I'm serious. As long as you can help me find out about Ouyang Tian, you can ask me to do anything."
Mo Yonggang, sitting nearby, was starting to feel restless. He thought they had come today to visit Wang Debiao. Although Bing Tianyi and Wang Ziyan were classmates, since Wang Debiao wasn't there and they had a lot of things waiting outside, what was the point of sitting here chatting with this girl?
Thinking of this, Mo Yonggang couldn't help but step forward and whisper to Bing Tianyi, "Mr. Bing, since Mr. Wang is not here, how about we focus on other matters for now and come back in the evening?"
"What are you in a hurry for? My father should be home soon," Wang Ziyan quickly interjected with a smile before Bing Tianyi could respond.
Mo Yonggang glanced at Wang Ziyan and, from the look in her eyes, he surprisingly sensed a hint of reluctance.
"Could it be that this girl has taken a liking to me?" Mo Yonggang thought to himself, his heart racing with excitement, and more importantly, his face turned red.
Bing Tianyi didn't pay much attention to this; after Mo Yonggang finished speaking, he cheerfully said, "Manager Mo, why don't we wait a bit longer? After all, it's still early."
"Alright then, we'll wait," Mo Yonggang awkwardly nodded and smiled while stealing glances at Wang Ziyan.
Meanwhile, Wang Ziyan was entirely focused on Bing Tianyi. After all, this man had made the deepest impression on her during the past three years of her life.
"Earlier you said that as long as I could help you find information about Ouyang Tian, you'd do anything for me. Is that true?" Wang Ziyan asked.
"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you?" Bing Tianyi replied, almost patting his chest as he spoke.
In fact, Bing Tianyi's eagerness to find Ouyang Tian was driven by a reason. He recalled how Ouyang Tian had helped him during his most difficult times in the county town. Moreover, Ouyang Tian's abilities were recognized by Old Huang. If he were to develop in Lan City in the future and could bring Ouyang Tian under his wing, it would likely be a success.
After Bing Tianyi finished speaking, Wang Ziyan blinked her big eyes at him. After some careful consideration, she finally whispered, "How about this? Let's wait until I figure out exactly what to do before discussing it further."
"So you're saying you're willing to help me look for him?" Bing Tianyi asked excitedly.
Wang Ziyan nodded with a smile and said, "But whether we can find him is still an unknown."
"Don't worry, your chances of finding him are better than mine," Bing Tianyi said with a smile.
Wang Ziyan nodded, casually took out her phone, and dialed Ouyang Xue's number. Once the call connected, Wang Ziyan and Ouyang Xue began chatting. As time passed, Bing Tianyi grew a bit anxious seeing that Wang Ziyan still hadn't gotten to the point.
Sitting on the sofa, he kept giving Wang Ziyan subtle hints with his eyes. Wang Ziyan appeared unconcerned, laughing as she chatted merrily with Ouyang Xue on the other end of the line.
Finally, after more than ten minutes, Wang Ziyan playfully asked Ouyang Xue, "Hey sister, I have something I want to ask you."
"What is it?"
"Is your uncle home recently? I need to talk to him about something," Wang Ziyan asked with a smile.
After Wang Ziyan finished her question, Bing Tianyi stared intently at her. A few seconds later, surprise crossed Wang Ziyan's face as she curiously asked Ouyang Xue on the phone, "How did you know that?"
"Alright then, I'll tell him," Wang Ziyan said. After saying this, her eyes filled with helplessness as she placed her phone on the table and looked at Bing Tianyi with a wry smile. "Guess what he told me in the end?"
Bing Tianyi felt a bit frustrated and thought to himself that since it was the two of them on the call, how would he know what they talked about? Even if his divination skills had significantly improved, there was no need to play this game.
"I don't know."
"Ouyang Xue told me that when her father left two years ago, he said that if she looked for him two years later, he would let her know that he would appear if necessary," Wang Ziyan said with a bitter smile to Bing Tianyi.
