Chapter 89

But to Yang Kang's surprise, after standing in the crowd for a full ten minutes, the fat man tiptoed, craned his neck, and searched through the crowd, yet still found no trace of the scholar.

Thus, the fat man became somewhat impatient and took out his phone to call the scholar again.

Yang Kang somewhat understood the situation: the scholar should have arrived on the next train, but he had deceived the fat man, making him come early to pick him up, saying he had already gotten off the train, which was a complete lie.

So, he found a place to sit down and waited patiently, thinking, "Since I'm here, I might as well wait it out."

In his heart, he was even more curious about this scholar.

"Scholar, have you arrived? Why can't I find you?" the fat man asked, holding his phone.

"Arrived, arrived, soon, the train will be at the station in twenty minutes," the scholar said with a chuckle.

"What?" Guo Fatzi jumped up and shouted, "Didn't you say you had already gotten off the train?"

"I did get off the train, but it wasn't Jinling Station," the scholar said nonchalantly, still smiling.

"You—!" Guo Fatzi finally realized he had been deceived.

"Fat man, you've arrived at the train station, please wait for me here!" the scholar laughed, "I'll really be there soon, um, that's it, I'll hang up... Ah, Fat man, let me tell you, the stewardess is really beautiful, with long legs, she's walking this way, I'll hang up."

Then, the scholar hung up the phone very irresponsibly.

The fat man wanted to smash his phone and leave with Yang Kang, cursing, "This damn scholar, he's still on the train, looking at the stewardess's long legs..."

"Sit down!" Yang Kang saw Guo Fatzi walking towards him with a look of anger and immediately said with a smile, "Is the scholar still not here? No problem, let's wait! We have nothing else to do anyway."

"Huh?" Guo Fatzi was taken aback and asked, "You guessed it?"

"This is too obvious." Yang Kang smiled, "We didn't find him, so I guessed. When we were in school, we often played similar pranks."

"Hmph, that damn scholar, he's still on the train, flirting with the stewardess," Guo Fatzi cursed angrily.

After he finished cursing, Guo Fatzi looked at Yang Kang and suddenly grinned mischievously. Then he stood up, walked to one side, and called the scholar again.

"Fat man, what's up? I told you, I'll be there soon, don't keep bothering me," the scholar said.

"Scholar, I just want to tell you something," Guo Fatzi suddenly felt triumphant. He and the scholar had grown up together, and it seemed that he was always the one being pranked. This time, he wanted to prank the damn scholar.

"What? You don't want to pick me up? No problem, if you don't pick me up, I'll have Monkey pick me up," the scholar said nonchalantly. In fact, even if Guo Fatzi didn't pick him up, he could just take a taxi, which wasn't a big deal.

"How could I not pick you up!" Guo Fatzi laughed strangely, "We're old friends, you know!"

"Right, right, right!" the scholar agreed, but he had a bad feeling.

"The Young Master sends his regards!" Guo Fatzi laughed.

"What?" the scholar was a bit confused.

"I mean, the Young Master is also at the station, waiting to pick you up," Guo Fatzi said smugly, "If I tell the Master... hehe... hehe..."

"Don't..." the scholar shivered, almost dropping his phone, and hurriedly said, "Fat man, Fat Master, I'm wrong, I'm really wrong, I apologize, I shouldn't have made you come early, I..."

"Ah, so you admit you were wrong?" Guo Fatzi was instantly happy.

"Is the Young Master really here?" the scholar thought for a moment but still believed that Guo Fatzi was probably lying.

"Little Master, the scholar sends his regards!" Guo Fatzi said nothing and walked over to Yang Kang with his phone.

"Ah?" Yang Kang was taken aback and instinctively said, "Scholar, hello!"

"Scholar, did you hear that?" Guo Fatzi was smug now.

"Heard it..." the scholar sighed.

"Hehe!" Guo Fatzi hung up the phone, went to buy two bottles of water, and handed one to Yang Kang, saying, "Little Master, you know, the scholar has been smart since he was young."

"Obviously, if he wasn't smart, he wouldn't be called a scholar," Yang Kang unscrewed the bottle cap and laughed, "Fat man, your luck is really good, you won a prize."

"Prize?" the fat man hurriedly looked and saw "Try Again."

"Go get another one, it'll be perfect for the scholar," Yang Kang smiled, "Your luck is really good, you should consider buying a lottery ticket today."

"Alright, I'll buy a lottery ticket!" the fat man also thought his luck was incredibly good, even a bottle of water could win a prize.

"Little Master, what I want to tell you isn't this," the fat man thought for a moment and said, "The scholar has been smart since he was young, often bullying me and Monkey..."

Yang Kang waited for him to continue, but after a long time, the fat man said nothing. He couldn't help but ask, "Then?"

"My point is—Little Master, your intelligence seems quite high, how about helping me get back at him?" Guo Fatzi leaned in and laughed.

Yang Kang shook his head, "Don't joke around, I'm not close to him, if I play a prank, he'll be angry."

Guo Fatzi and Hou Zhi clearly grew up with the scholar, so their friendship was extraordinary. A small prank was nothing serious.

For example, today the scholar made Guo Fatzi come half an hour early to pick him up, but although Guo Fatzi was a bit annoyed, Yang Kang knew he wasn't really angry. But he was different; he was just an outsider.

The scholar's physique was completely different from Guo Fatzi's, he was slender, probably only about 1.75 meters tall, and his face was somewhat pale, making Yang Kang wonder if he had some health issues. He should get Guo Fatzi to get some medicine for him, to take care of himself and avoid falling ill at a young age.

"Fat man!" the scholar saw Guo Fatzi, put down his luggage, and gave him a bear hug.

"Ha—" Guo Fatzi punched him in the chest a couple of times, showing his happiness, which made Yang Kang somewhat envious of their friendship.

"Come, come, let me introduce you!" Guo Fatzi pulled Yang Kang over and said, "You know."
