CHAPTER 46 GIVE ME DEATH!
The blonde girl stared into Ye Zhibai’s eyes.
But Ye Zhibai did not return the gaze.
She kept her head down.
Who asked her to step out into the scorching sun? Did she think it looked cool?
It’s blinding!
Did she just call me “Little Bai’er”?
Eww… such a sappy nickname. Who is she calling anyway?
Guang Yu flicked her tail against Ye Zhibai’s butt, kindly reminding her.
“She’s calling you, the only one here with ‘Bai’ in their name.”
“……”
Oh right, she’s calling me.
Ye Zhibai still wasn’t used to having “Bai” in her name since it used to be “Bo,” which sounded different.
And as soon as Ye Zhibai fully realized the nickname was directed at her…
She got goosebumps!
“And also, Ye Zhibai.” Guang Yu left this remark before darting behind the car to watch from a safe distance, “A big fight might break out! Look at your sister’s face… I’m out, might get caught in the crossfire!”
“Hey…?”
What could possibly scare a brave little fox like this?
Ye Zhibai looked to her side, against the light.
“!”
I have to say, now I understand Guang Yu’s fear!
At this moment, Ye Zhiyun was a completely different person compared to just now!
Her brows were furrowed tightly, and she glared fiercely in the direction of the blonde girl. Her beautiful face was filled with murderous intent.
She looked ready to kill.
This wasn’t just a description.
There was actual murderous intent!!
Ye Zhiyun instinctively stepped in front of Ye Zhibai, blocking the blonde girl’s view of her sister.
Then, in a low voice, she spoke.
“Lin Zihan, what did you just call my sister?”
The blonde girl named Lin Zihan smiled gracefully, her crimson eyes full of an unfathomable mystery.
“Oh my… how frightening, Zhiyun. It’s been so long, and you’re still so impatient. Haha, no matter what, the three of us were childhood friends. Remember the days when Xiao Bai’er, you, and I used to play hide and seek in my garden!”
This is what you call the art of speaking~
Xiao Bai’er.
And you.
The way she paused was truly impactful.
Although she was reminiscing about old times, her expression did not match the sentiment.
It was impossible to read her thoughts.
She said all that just to answer Ye Zhiyun’s earlier question.
“You mean the nickname…? Haha, it’s Xiao Bai’er, of course. Xiao Bai’er is just as cute as ever~. Oh, Zhiyun, you’re blocking me. How can I see Xiao Bai’er now? Could you step aside? Thanks so much~”
Ye Zhibai clearly saw Zhiyun’s fists clench tightly, with a force that could strangle a giraffe.
And from her sideways glance, she could see the determined murderous intent in her eyes.
Look at how angry she made her!
Watching the blonde girl across from them, Ye Zhibai could only think of one thing.
——This woman is playing with fire!
Ye Zhiyun was so furious that she laughed.
Restraint… keep calm.
She adhered to the principle of avoiding physical conflict if possible.
After a brief laugh, Ye Zhiyun showed no sign of recognizing this Lin family young lady as an old friend, but instead, she assumed the stance of the student council president, speaking seriously and sternly.
“Lin Zihan, your words will have consequences, that’s for sure. Also, it’s class time right now. As a student of Qihai No. 1 High School, you’re blatantly skipping class and dare to appear in front of a student council member with such a bad attitude. I advise you to disappear from here immediately and return to class.”
Student council member referred to herself, the ultimate boss, the student council president.
Class?
Lin Zihan seemed to hear a hilarious joke, and her silver-bell-like laughter rang out again.
Instead of responding to Ye Zhiyun’s warning, she took small steps and moved slightly to the side.
This way, I can see the blocked Xiao Bai’er~
Of course, Ye Zhiyun kept moving in sync with her to continue blocking.
“……”
Lin Zihan decided not to argue with her anymore and directly raised her voice to address Ye Zhibai.
“Xiao Bai’er! Why don’t you come out? Do you remember me? I’m Lin Zihan! We used to play together all the time when we were kids! I even fed you cake myself! Oh… these past two years while you were in a coma, I’ve been thinking about you day and night, losing my appetite and sleep, missing you terribly…”
Ye Zhibai pondered…
What do I even say to that! I don’t know you at all!
I don’t get it, this body used to be just an empty shell, yet it had such a rich emotional life!
And me, before I died, was so full of soul, yet had no emotional life whatsoever?!
Comparing myself to myself is infuriating enough to kill me!
Just as Ye Zhibai was about to step out and ask, Ye Zhiyun acted first.
Since polite persuasion didn’t work, there was no need to keep trying.
“Your pretentious act is disgusting. Also, Lin Zihan, how many times have you called my sister ‘Xiao Bai’er’ since earlier?”
“Huh?”
“Can’t remember, huh? It’s okay, I’ve been counting for you—seven times. Head maid, hand me the wooden stick you’re holding.”
“Yes, Second Miss.”
The second miss’s command was absolute.
The head maid handed over the more than one-meter-long wooden stick without question.
Ye Zhiyun took the stick, weighed it in her hand, and nodded in satisfaction.
She first looked back at Ye Zhibai, her cold expression changing suddenly into a warm smile like the spring breeze!
“Sister, don’t worry. If possible, please go sit in the car or close your eyes, because what’s going to happen next might be a bit violent and not suitable for you to see.”
“!”
Ye Zhibai’s first reaction was one of shock.
She thought that Yun’er was really going to hit someone over such a small matter!
But then she reconsidered… it couldn’t be.
This had to be Yun’er’s cleverness!
Using the wooden stick to scare this Lin Zihan into retreating and going back to class without further entanglement was indeed a good strategy!
After instructing Ye Zhibai, Yun’er turned back.
The dramatic change in her expression was in full force.
She was cold again.
Ye Zhiyun walked steadily, holding the wooden stick firmly, taking steps forward.
Each step she took exerted palpable pressure.
The smile on Lin Zihan’s face became stiff, she was still smiling with squinted eyes, but a drop of cold sweat trickled down her temple.
Her lips trembled as she tried to maintain her graceful posture: “Zhiyun, you don’t need to go this far… Hey… don’t come over, Xiao Bai’er! Help me out here! This is a serious problem!”
Oh, what are you afraid of?
Yun’er is just trying to scare you.
She’s so kind, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart; she won’t really hit you.
Ye Zhibai crossed her arms in front of her chest, nodding to herself, fully confident in her reasoning.
However…
In the brief moment she nodded and then looked up again…
“Lin Zihan!! You’re dead!!”
“Ah!!!”
“!”
Ye Zhibai trembled all over!
She looked up ahead.
Her pupils shook with shock!
Yun’er had not hesitated at all, swinging the wooden stick, sweeping it towards Lin Zihan’s shins.
With a pained scream, Lin Zihan’s elegance vanished instantly!
The stick struck her shins and then swept across the ground, knocking Lin Zihan down.
She landed hard on her bottom!
Sitting on the ground, Lin Zihan blinked her uncovered right eye in bewilderment.
Uh… who am I? Where am I?!
She actually hit me?!
What did you expect?
Ye Zhiyun’s principle was to avoid physical conflict if possible.
But when it was time to act, she would hit with full force!
“Call my sister Xiao Bai’er one more time! I’ll beat you to death, you damn fox spirit! You called seven times, I’ve hit you once, six more to go, get ready to die!”
“Your sister is crazy! Crazy! Xiao Bai’er, help me!”
“That’s the eighth time you’ve called her, one more hit!”
“Ah!!!”
