While Zhao Jiayin and others were in their dorm room deciding that Hao Ren wouldn't have any women interested in him for three years, Hao Ren was already anxious to leave school. He hailed a taxi and went to the best dermatology hospital in Donghai City, Huaxi Hospital.

After going through a series of tedious procedures and examinations, the dermatologist expert held up a large pile of instrument reports and clearly informed Hao Ren that the stripes on his arm were caused by some kind of dye—like the fading of poor quality bed sheets.

The report showed that there was nothing abnormal about his body cells; all indicators were normal. The blue color wasn't due to pigment deposition in the cells, and the scale-like patterns were simply a regular spread of colors—and there was absolutely no possibility of it being contagious.

This explanation, although somewhat勉強，也足以讓郝仁暫時安心。

With the report in hand, Hao Ren left the hospital and returned to school. He scrubbed his arms vigorously with soap and noticed that the color seemed to have lightened a bit. After being on edge for so long only to be relieved, he changed into a fresh bedsheet and fell asleep.

The afternoon sun of Saturday shone directly onto Hao Ren's buttocks through the curtains.

"Ah Ren! Ah Ren!"

The dorm room door was being pounded on.

"Damn it! Who is it" Zhao Jiayin, who was sleeping in the bottom bunk, picked up a pillow and threw it at the door.

"Ah Ren, there's a beauty waiting for you!" The voice of Gu Jiadong from room 301 across the hall could be heard outside the dorm room.

Chu Liren, still groggy from his dream, suddenly woke up with a start and sat up. Ever since Chu Liren failed in courting the school's flower queen, he had lost the courage to date but maintained his enthusiasm for observing beauties.

"Ah Ren, get up quickly! Cao Ronghua asked me to come and call you. There are already a lot of people gathered at Shanming canteen entrance; there’s a little beauty waiting for you there, and everyone is waiting to see what happens!" Gu Jiadong continued shouting from outside the door.

"What nonsense." Hao Ren rubbed his still sore stomach, suddenly remembering something. He raised his wrist and saw that the blue marks had neither faded nor spread further, which slightly reassured him.

The knocking on the door continued.

"Coming, coming!" Hao Ren jumped out of bed and went to open the door.

Zhao Jiayin, who was in the lower bunk, couldn't sleep either and got up angrily. Zhou Liren had already started getting dressed excitedly upon hearing the word "beautiful woman."

"There are a lot of people gathered outside the Shanming cafeteria. I went to eat with Cao Ronghua and thought something must have happened. When we looked, it turned out to be a beautiful woman waiting for someone," Gu Jiadong said hurriedly when Hao Ren finally opened the door.

"Damn it! Just because she's waiting doesn't mean she’s waiting for me! If you want some fun like this, just call Zhou Liren!" Hao Ren was irritated as he glared at Gu Jiadong. He had a bad stomach last night and only fell asleep late into the night; now he felt even worse being woken up.

"Let me finish speaking!" Gu Jiadong tugged at Hao Ren, "The beautiful woman is holding a portrait that's exactly like you! She said whoever can bring this person to her will get 500 yuan!"

"Me" Hao Ren was bewildered. He stared at Gu Jiadong and asked, "So you’re after the 500 yuan by calling me"

"Hehe..." Gu Jiadong laughed rather brightly.

Upon hearing the increasingly noisy voices outside their dorm building, Hao Ren went to the balcony. He saw a large group of guys he knew dashing towards his dorm room and guessed that they had come for the bounty to capture him. Therefore, he quickly put on clothes and shoes and followed Gu Jiadong downstairs.

Zhao Jiayin, as head of their dorm, fearing any mishap, got out of bed without further delay and dressed up to go with Hao Ren. He was closest friends with Hao Ren; while he often cursed at him, he also cared about him the most.

As for Zhou Liren, when it came to watching beautiful women, he always took the lead.

The South District dorms were outside of campus. The four of them entered through the south gate and saw posters featuring Hao Ren's pencil sketches plastered on all bulletin boards along their way. Under each image was written in large characters: "500 yuan reward for finding this person waiting at the cafeteria door!"

Given the number of bulleting boards, these images had to be printed in at least several hundred copies. The scale of this bounty hunt rivaled that of a nationwide manhunt!

"What did you do to that woman You've got people hunting for you on campus!" Zhou Liren asked out of curiosity and anticipation.

"How should I know I don't even know who she is!" Hao Ren said exasperatedly.

Amidst this crowd coming to call him, Hao Ren was involuntarily led towards the cafeteria. At such a moment, he had no way to retreat.

"Here he comes! Here he comes!" Some people spotted the main person and gloatingly shouted.

The densely packed crowd automatically made way for him as they parted like a river.

Hao Ren walked awkwardly towards the cafeteria entrance under the gaze of hundreds of people, seeing... that cute girl from yesterday.

A crisp white shirt and washed-out jeans, a very ordinary outfit, yet striking nonetheless. Under the fluttering strands of hair in the wind, she revealed an intimidating expression.

"Oh... Oh..."

Someone started to tease.

Zhao Jiayin, known for having countless beautiful friends, whispered to Hao Ren, "That little lady is really pretty."

Zhou Liren, eager and winking at Hao Ren, said, "When did you meet this beauty Introduce her to me."

The little beauty finally saw Hao Ren approaching and pursed her lips.

Hao Ren, suppressing his embarrassment, walked up amidst countless piercing eyes, asking, "Are you looking for me"

"Did you take my things yesterday" the little beauty asked, staring at Hao Ren without backing down.

"Things What things" Hao Ren was genuinely surprised and puzzled to find out it was her.

Gu Jiadong hurriedly interjected when he saw them talking, rubbing his hands together and saying, "Well..."

The little beauty glanced at him and pulled out a wallet, taking out 500 yuan and handing it to Gu Jiadong.

The surrounding students were surprised by the actual payment of five hundred dollars but also regretted not running faster than Gu Jiadong.

Gu Jiadong, satisfied with his earnings, squeezed through the crowd, no longer wanting to watch the spectacle and fearing that this little beauty might change her mind.

So she turned out to be a wealthy young lady... Hao Ren thought to himself.

"You! Did you take my things yesterday" The little beauty continued questioning Hao Ren.

"What are you talking about" Hao Ren glumly stared at her, knowing that thanks to her antics, he was now famous in school.

"It's just a bead, a blue one," she said.

"I haven't seen it. Maybe you dropped it somewhere else." Without thinking, Hao Ren replied.

The people around them felt somewhat disappointed upon hearing their conversation; they had thought the pretty girl was looking for someone to retaliate against after being bullied, but she was just missing something.

"That bead is soft and elastic," the pretty girl added. "Give me two minutes to think."

"Can we talk somewhere else" Hao Ren looked at the crowd of onlookers around him and sighed helplessly.

"Just give back what you took! It’s so unmanly to snatch a pretty lady's things!" A few troublemakers among the boys called out.

"Shut up! This doesn't concern you!" The pretty girl suddenly burst into anger.

The boys were taken aback for a moment and didn’t dare to argue back.

“Let’s leave, let's disperse...” Zhao Jiayin saw that the situation wasn’t serious and pulled Zhou Liren and some close friends to start dispersing the crowd.

The pretty girl ignored others' actions and continued staring at Hao Ren. "That thing is very important to me; I hope you can return it."

"I don't know what you're talking about..." Hao Ren was interrupted mid-sentence as she suddenly reached out and covered his mouth.

"I feel that it's here with you," she said, then furrowed her brows in concentration as if listening for something.

Then suddenly, she reached towards Hao Ren's abdomen.

Hao Ren was about to pull back his stomach when the pretty girl grabbed his wrist and pulled up his sleeve, revealing a layer of blue dragon-like tattoos! nearly a day and night, Zhao Kuo faced several dangerous moments while refining the crystal.
