Silence lingered on the other end of the line. No one spoke.
Yet Ruan Jin could still hear a clamor in the background, which sounded like a group of young men and women talking.
"It's snowing at our school! It's so beautiful!"
"You bet! The snowscape at Dongli is famous among all the colleges in East Sea."
"Alright, kids, stop chattering and let's have a snowball fight before the snow gets cleared away. Dad's going to take on three of you at once today!"
"..."
Although Wan Yan hadn't said a word, Ruan Jin guessed where he was.
Gone was the arrogance he'd shown when speaking with Wan Yan and the bank manager. Now, he asked cautiously, with a fawning tone, "Brother Wan, are you at Dongli University?"
"What is it?"
Wan Yan's voice was frigid.
Ever since learning of Xu Lai's true power from his grandfather, Wan Yuanshan, he no longer dared to associate with the Ruan Family.
