"Will you please stop harassing me, Jack?" Bailey shouted.
The man called Jack smirked at her. "Harassing you? You're my girlfriend! How is this harassment, huh? Or did you lie to this guy about being a virgin?"
"You're shameless." Bailey flushed scarlet in the face, glowering at Jack.
Jack seemed oblivious to her rage, looking Wilbur up and down.
Wilbur frowned. "Get lost before you piss me off."
"Oh my, I'm terrified! Do you know where you are right now?" Jack smirked. "This is Shia, not Dasha."
"And so what if it's Shia?" Wilbur said coldly.
Jack smirked. "I can make you disappear anytime I want here. Got it, Mister Dashan?"
"Aren't you from Dasha too?" Wilbur frowned.
Jack sneered. "I used to be, but not anymore. I'm going to change nationalities in no time and become Shian for good.
Wilbur could not help but shake his head. "You ingrate, forgetting your roots."
"How dare you say that to me, you bastard! I've not even given you any trouble!" Jack said.
Wilbur chuckled. "Giving me trouble, huh?"
"Yes! You were hitting on my girlfriend, weren't you? What are you going to do about it, huh?" Jack sneered.
Wilbur looked at Bailey, who scrambled to say, "We're just classmates! He tried to hit on me, but I turned him down, and he's been giving me trouble ever since."
Wilbur turned back to Jack coldly. "Get lost right now before I break your legs."
For some reason, a chill ran down Jack's spine under Wilbur's stony gaze.
Jack faltered for a second, before glaring viciously at them. "Just you idiots wait."
The next second, he turned to run off.
Wilbur sat down on his sofa, satisfied as he lit a cigarette.
Bailey stood around awkwardly. "Where are your bags, Mister Penn?"
"Didn't bring any."
Bailey did not really understand how one could travel without any luggage, but that was not something she was going to question.
"Well, Sir, where would you like to go, then?"
"I'm here to look for someone," Wilbur smiled.
Bailey peered at him. "Who would that be?"
"Loja," said Wilbur.
Bailey widened her eyes. "You know Loja, the reincarnation of Buddha?"
