Gu Yang beamed. “Thank you, Teacher Xiao.”
Their interaction was just shy of exchanging handshakes and bidding each other “Happy cooperation.”
Observing Gu Yang’s swift change in demeanor after Devon’s departure, Ruan Meng couldn’t help but feel a mix of emotions, her expression inscrutable.
Gu Yang, however, remained in high spirits. Finding a seat, she promptly scanned the QR code on the table to place an order.
Ruan Meng, her mind preoccupied with questions, looked at Gu Yang. “Gu Yang…”
Gu Yang handed her the phone. “I’ve placed the order. Feel free to pick whatever you like.”
“I’m not picky,” Ruan Meng responded absentmindedly, her thoughts elsewhere as she glanced at the menu screen. After selecting a few dishes at random, she pulled a chair closer to Gu Yang and exclaimed, “Wait, you’re a mutant too? And a hypnotist?”
Gu Yang nodded, slightly taken aback. “You are too?”
Ruan Meng nodded proudly. “That’s right! My brother, my mother, and I are all mutants!”
She never expected Gu Yang, who exuded such a gentle and unassuming demeanor, to possess mutant abilities.
However, upon considering Gu Yang’s status as a rare hypnotist, Ruan Meng didn’t find it surprising.
Mutants fell into two categories: regular mutants with enhanced physical abilities surpassing those of ordinary individuals, and hypnotists possessing exceptional mental prowess. Often, a hypnotist’s physical strength wasn’t particularly formidable.
Gu Yang found herself slightly taken aback.
Determining a mutant’s level was usually quite challenging if they didn’t actively demonstrate their abilities.
“By the way, what’s your level? I’m an A-rank!” Ruan Meng declared proudly.
Gu Yang pondered for a moment. “That Tally is an S-rank hypnotist, ranked tenth on the Dark Web. If you can counter her hypnosis, you must be at least an S-rank, right?”
“I suppose so,” Gu Yang replied, though she wasn’t entirely certain.
Previously, she had joked with the small blood bank, who claimed she was SSS-rank. However, in reality, SSS-rank was merely a theoretical limit and practically nonexistent.
Observing Gu Yang’s ambiguous response, Ruan Meng opted not to press further. After all, some mutants preferred to keep their true abilities concealed.
Ruan Meng widened her eyes and inquired cautiously, “Where do you rank on the Dark Web Hypnotist Rankings?”
Gu Yang, clearly superior to Tally, led Ruan Meng to speculate about the top nine spots. However, after recalling all she knew about those nine hypnotists, Ruan Meng couldn’t find a match for Gu Yang.
Gu Yang observed Ruan Meng’s mixture of fear and curiosity and felt a mischievous urge to tease her. Fixing her gaze on Ruan Meng’s face, she remarked nonchalantly, “Curiosity killed the cat. Are you absolutely certain you want to know?”
Trembling with fear, Ruan Meng recoiled from Gu Yang and vigorously shook her head. “No, no! Gu Yang, I’m your cousin. My brother knows I’m meeting you. You wouldn’t silence me, would you?”
The corners of Gu Yang’s mouth twitched. Had she failed to notice her cousin’s timidity before? Did she truly appear so menacing?
Suppressing a chuckle, Gu Yang reassured her, “I’m only teasing. In China, killing is a capital offense. Who would harm you without cause?”
Still visibly shaken, Ruan Meng eyed Gu Yang skeptically and ventured in a timid tone, “Are you sure?”
Pointing at herself, Gu Yang gazed back with earnest sincerity. “Do I strike you as someone sinister?”
Ruan Meng remained silent, her thoughts racing. Despite Gu Yang’s seemingly harmless demeanor, everyone knew that members of the hypnotist group were adept at deception.
Just like Tally. At first glance, she seemed like a non-mainstream loli. Who would have imagined that her hands were stained with blood? She had even been wielded as a weapon of mass destruction by the Katie family.
Observing Ruan Meng’s hesitation, Gu Yang queried, “Hmm?”
Ruan Meng’s response was swift. “Gu Yang, you’re a good person!”
Gu Yang could discern from her tone that Ruan Meng was eager to stay alive.
