81: Chapter 81 No one can renege on a bet with him.

"What did you do to Director Zhou?"

Why did Lin Xiao feel like that sounded weird?

What could he possibly do to that pervert?

However, to keep Lin Wanwan from worrying, he didn't mention any of Director Zhou's dirty deeds.

Nor did he intend to report this matter to the principal.

Sometimes, a sword hanging over someone's head is more intimidating than actually stabbing them.

After the meal, Lin Xiao took Lin Wanwan for a stroll around the school to relax.

When they reached the bottom of the dormitory building, he suddenly stopped.

Listening to the sudden notification from the gossip system in his mind, his expression turned serious.

"Sis, do you have any elective classes or study sessions tonight?"

Lin Xiao looked up towards the dormitory balcony and asked, somewhat abruptly.

"There is an elective class. I remember quite a lot of people taking it; most of our major should have signed up for it."

Lin Wanwan thought for a moment before answering truthfully.

"Then why didn't you pick it?"

Lin Xiao was taken aback, wondering if Lin Wanwan had been ostracized again.

Lin Wanwan quickly explained, "Because I already took it last semester. The credit requirements were adjusted this semester, so many people who didn't have extra credits before have to take one or two more classes this term. The teacher for this class is very interesting, so everyone just chose this one."

"So that's how it is."

Lin Xiao nodded silently, but remained standing where he was, with no intention of going upstairs at all.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Wanwan noticed Lin Xiao's unusual behavior.

Lin Xiao glanced to the side and said with a smile, "It looks like there are reporters over there doing a live broadcast and interviews; let's go take a look."

Lin Wanwan looked in the direction Lin Xiao pointed, and sure enough, she saw several people holding phones and live-streaming.

She usually had no interest in such things and was unwilling to participate in street interviews.

While she was hesitating, she had already been pulled over by Lin Xiao.

"We don't have anything to do back there anyway, let's just watch from here."

Lin Xiao looked quite interested as he brought Lin Wanwan into the crowd of onlookers.

To be honest, this kind of activity was indeed boring.

It was just that he couldn't go upstairs right now, otherwise he would miss a good show.

While Lin Wanwan was confused, she suddenly heard Lin Xiao's inner voice again.

[Lu Fei's dormitory is going to catch fire in a bit, and they'll come running out naked. Such an interesting event must be seen on-site.]

[Good thing it's just a small flame and won't affect anyone else. It'll serve as a lesson for them!]

...

Hearing these words, Lin Wanwan was so shocked she couldn't speak.

Lu Fei's dormitory is going to catch fire?

That's the dormitory right across from them!

Will it really not spiral out of control?

Lin Wanwan felt a bit anxious, but there was nothing she could do.

Even if she rushed to Lu Fei's dormitory to tell them now, they would only think she was crazy!

Plus, this was just Lin Xiao's inner voice; who could say if it was true or false...

While Lin Wanwan hesitated, the bell for the end of class rang.

More students came out of the teaching building one after another and headed towards the dormitories.

Just at this moment, screams erupted from the dormitory building!

"Ah! There's a fire!"

"Quick, put out the fire!"

"..."

Lin Wanwan's pupils contracted in shock.

It really caught fire?

Judging by the spot where the black smoke was rising, it was indeed the dormitory where Lu Fei lived!

"How could this happen..."

Lin Wanwan seemed to be asking Lin Xiao, or perhaps talking to herself.

Lin Xiao gently patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, the fire truck is already at the school gate."

Lin Wanwan vaguely sensed that Lin Xiao must have called the fire truck in advance.

Fortunately, everyone else was in shock, so no one noticed that the fire truck's timely arrival was somewhat unreasonable.

Some people went to call for help, while others took out their phones to film from a distance.

Even the reporters who were live-streaming earlier swarmed over, finding the best angles to capture the incident.

Lin Xiao silently brought Lin Wanwan to an optimal vantage point.

They saw several girls rushing out of the dormitory building, screaming as they fled.

They seemed to have run out in such a hurry that they hadn't even put on their clothes properly; they were almost half-naked.

It really was them!

They actually came out naked!

Lin Wanwan was even more surprised when she saw the faces of those girls clearly.

"Heh, that's truly an eyesore!"

Lin Xiao smacked his lips, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

When the system told him earlier that the dormitory building would catch fire, he was a bit worried at first.

But upon hearing that the fire started in Lu Fei's dormitory and would not cause any casualties or property damage to others, he felt relieved.

The cause of the fire was that they forgot to turn off their curling iron, which caused it to overheat and ignite the curtains.

In fact, the fire was very small at the beginning; as long as they had turned off the power in time and splashed a cup of water on it, it could have been extinguished.

Unfortunately, they were all pampered and spoiled, and having never seen such a situation, they were too scared to do anything but run.

So, after Lin Xiao confirmed with Lin Wanwan that most people on that floor had gone to class, he decided to just watch the show.

These girls treated dormitory regulations as mere whispers in the wind; it was time they learned a lesson.

The fire truck arrived quickly and promptly extinguished the fire.

The fire was even smaller than previously anticipated, only burning the curtains and a desk by the window.

But even though the fire was small, it caused a great psychological shock to Lu Fei and her group.

After receiving the news, the school leaders rushed over in a hurry.

Upon learning the cause of the fire, they scolded Lu Fei and the others severely and gave them all demerits!

Lin Wanwan watched all of this and suddenly realized something, looking at Lin Xiao in astonishment.

Could it be that Lin Xiao really can predict the future?

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xiao asked with a smile.

"No, nothing."

Lin Wanwan didn't dare to voice her suspicions.

She was afraid that if this matter were exposed, the situation would spiral out of control.

"Sis, look, no one has ever been able to renege on a bet with me!"

After saying this, Lin Xiao headed towards the dormitory building first.

Watching Lin Xiao's retreating figure, Lin Wanwan felt increasingly conflicted.

She couldn't see through this younger brother of hers at all.

Could he be some kind of hidden expert? Or perhaps the reincarnation of an immortal?

But that didn't matter anymore; since her younger brother could really predict the future, it was a good thing for the Lin family.

She would also have to keep this matter strictly confidential, just like her eldest and second sisters.

If it were exposed and her younger brother was captured for dissection and research, that would be truly terrifying...
