Chapter 1670: Chapter 1376: Is This Guy Crazy?
With great anticipation, Lin Weiwei watched the person, but he just grinned at her without saying a word.
“Why don’t you just tell me?”
In the end, Lin Weiwei couldn’t hold back any longer.
“Here, finish this for me. I’m having fun with this game, and you interrupted me. Once you’re done, I’ll tell you.” The man said boldly, adjusting his glasses.
People in Ladoga loved playing crossword puzzles. Bai Xiaosheng and his friends once saw in a café an uncle ordering a hot coffee and playing the crossword puzzle on the newspaper until the coffee turned cold, finishing it with a satisfied look before gulping down the cold coffee.
So it seemed, this man was also playing a crossword puzzle.
Not just Lin Weiwei, even Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying thought so.
Lin Weiwei grabbed the little notebook and the pen from the other person, noticing that there seemed to be boxes and numbers, and immediately looked confident, “Is it a numbers-based puzzle? I’m really good at these.”
Westerners sometimes exhibited an exaggerated incompetence in basic arithmetic, often exemplified in life when giving change. Huaxia’s quick mental math for giving change could astonish ordinary Western folks, showcasing the disparity…
Therefore, Lin Weiwei was very confident. She had no issues with number-based crossword puzzles.
However, upon opening that notebook and seeing the scribble and sketches, Lin Weiwei instantly frowned.
“What is this thing?!” The more Lin Weiwei looked, the more astonished she became and couldn’t help but ask.
“It’s a game I use to pass the time.” The man chuckled.
Lin Weiwei erupted in anger, “You call this a game?!”
Speaking, Lin Weiwei showed the contents of the notebook to Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying.
Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying, curious, walked over, and upon looking, were stunned.
The notebook was filled with dense molecular formulas!
How could this be leisure!
Lin Weiwei’s face had a “you’re messing with me” look, immediately gritting her teeth in anger.
“Can’t solve it, huh? Then don’t just interrupt someone’s game. As for asking for directions, even if I told you, you might not find it. It’s an intelligence issue.” The man sneered, trying to retrieve his things from Lin Weiwei.
“I can try.”
Suddenly, a voice came, a hand reaching out to take the item from Lin Weiwei before the man could.
The speaker, of course, was Bai Xiaosheng.
“You?” The man sized Bai Xiaosheng up and down with a skeptical chuckle, “Alright, if you can solve my biomolecular formulas, I’ll take you there!”
In his eyes, he didn’t believe it at all.
“Don’t be arrogant. If my Xiaosheng says he can, then he can. Just wait to lead the way!” Lin Weiwei angrily replied.
The man smirked without speaking, watching coldly from the side.
Lei Ying, a bit worried, gazed at Bai Xiaosheng.
It’s true Bai Xiaosheng knows a lot, but with such a highly specialized biomolecular formulas, can he really do it?
Even if Bai Xiaosheng could do it, how long would it take?
Might as well find someone else to ask for directions.
Of course, since Bai Xiaosheng had already said he’d try, Lei Ying naturally didn’t say more, quietly watching.
Bai Xiaosheng held the notebook with one hand, looking at the contents, while pressing the ballpoint pen with a series of clicks.
For over a minute, Bai Xiaosheng maintained this posture without putting pen to paper.
Growing impatient, the man said, “Are you capable or not? Don’t waste my time; I still have to go to my uncle’s place for a meal…”
“What’s the rush, you freeloader, speaking so righteously. It’s only been a minute. Can you finish it in a minute?” Lin Weiwei retorted angrily.
The man sneered, showing a face that he wouldn’t argue with a woman, and looked at Bai Xiaosheng.
Suddenly, Bai Xiaosheng smiled.
Then, his pen fell swiftly on the notebook, quickly completing the unfinished molecular formulas.
Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying were a bit dazzled and couldn’t judge the situation, looking at the man beside them.
The man was initially curious, then surprised, and finally shocked.
This young Asian had thought for only a minute and actually completed all the remaining parts?
It was incredible!
“I thought only my Lai Yin could do this speed!” The man exclaimed in astonishment.
Lin Weiwei immediately gave him a big eye-roll.
Still bragging, huh?
Shameless.
After Bai Xiaosheng finished writing, he directly handed the notebook back to him, smiling, “Check it. If it’s correct, lead the way.”
The man named Lai Yin glanced briefly, then closed the notebook, smiling, “No need to check. You’re correct!”
“Then I’ll take you there.” Lai Yin shrugged delightfully.
This man was straightforward, accepted the bet, and was even willing to guide them, making him appear less obnoxious.
As they walked, Lai Yin tried to get acquainted with Bai Xiaosheng, “Are you studying biology, medicine, or something? You’re very talented. Interested in exchanging knowledge?”
Bai Xiaosheng politely declined with a smile.
He won, thanks to Red Lotus.
Under Lai Yin’s lead, they quickly found Building 19, which was not far ahead.
“Thanks, you can go now.” Lin Weiwei casually said.
Unexpectedly, the other shamelessly followed them into the building.
In Lin Weiwei’s surprised gaze, Lai Yin revealed a smile, chuckling, “I was originally heading to Building 19.”
Bai Xiaosheng and his two companions were momentarily stunned.
Turns out, they’re on the same path!
Yet this guy didn’t mention it and made them go through all that drama, saying he’d lead them if they won.
Angry, Lin Weiwei gave him a fierce glare.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled helplessly, reassuring Lin Weiwei with a glance.
They followed the staircase up, and Lai Yin trailed along.
With only one corridor, even if Lin Weiwei didn’t like it, there was no choice.
However, when they reached the floor where Mr. and Mrs. Jonas lived, the guy still followed, and even when Bai Xiaosheng knocked on the Jonas’ door, he remained behind them, not leaving.
“Hey, what’s your problem, why are you following us!” Lin Weiwei angrily asked.
Lai Yin shrugged, with a “what can I do” look on his face.
Bai Xiaosheng also looked at him in surprise; this person didn’t seem like a desperado at all.
Lei Ying frowned a bit, contemplating grabbing the man’s collar, teaching him a lesson, and scaring him off.
Just at that moment, the door to the Jonas’ residence opened.
Jonas appeared at the door, looked at Bai Xiaosheng and the others, and was immediately delighted, “My esteemed guests, you’ve finally arrived!”
Before Bai Xiaosheng could reply, behind them Lai Yin shouted, “My dear uncle, it’s me! I’m here again!”
