Chapter 57. I’m So Happy!
Now, an idea was gradually solidifying in Ye Zhibai’s mind.
— I need to see how I was turned to ashes in my past life!
A good beginning makes a good ending.
As seasons change, how wonderful!
Ye Zhibai was planning her future grand strategy when she heard Guang Yu’s light complaining and pleading voice.
“Ye Zhibai, I can’t clean the floor properly. The towel isn’t working.”
“Nonsense, if you don’t wet the towel, how can you clean anything?”
“Oh, I need to wet it? Got it.”
Guang Yu wasn’t very good at housework.
The great deity had never done chores before.
Ye Zhibai had just told her to use a towel to clean up the drink she had spilled on the floor.
But she was just wiping back and forth with a completely dry towel!
Aren’t you just making it stickier?
But perhaps Ye Zhibai shouldn’t have told her that the towel needed to be wet.
Because Guang Yu… actually grabbed Ye Zhibai’s water cup! And poured the remaining half cup of water all over the towel!
“Guang Yu, I told you to wet the towel at the faucet… not to touch my water cup. After all… you already ruined my cup when brushing your teeth, do you have a grudge against water cups?”
“Oh my, why so many rules? Isn’t it just changing the order a bit? No big deal, I’ll go fill your cup at the faucet later. Half a cup becomes a full cup, you’re even gaining!”
Logical genius.
Even a master of logic would have to bow to you.
Ye Zhibai didn’t want to be beaten down dimensionally again. She sighed lightly and was about to put away the fountain pen on her bedside table to prepare for sleep when there was a knock on the door frame.
“Sister, are you still awake? Can you open the door?”
“Just a moment, let me put on my shoes.”
Ye Zhibai responded skillfully in her cool tone.
As she got out of bed, she didn’t forget to give Guang Yu a six-word policy instruction.
“Turn into a cat, curl up, don’t move.”
This instruction was very important.
They couldn’t let Zhiyun come in every time and not see the cat. They said they were raising a cat, but if it’s never seen, they can’t always say it’s gone to the flower bushes. A cat isn’t a caterpillar, it can’t stay in the bushes all day.
But Guang Yu, this fellow, was extremely uncooperative.
“Eh~~ I don’t want to change, I haven’t finished cleaning the floor, I’m so tired.”
“Stop arguing, change quickly.”
Zhiyun was still waiting outside.
In her urgency, Ye Zhibai raised her snow-white little foot and gave Guang Yu’s bottom a light kick!
“Wah…!”
It should be said… Ye Zhibai really underestimated Guang Yu’s light and petite body.
Just a light kick.
And this fox tumbled forward with a thud!
She was cleaning the floor, there was water on the surface, and she slid forward more than a meter!
— The entire floor was instantly spotless.
Well, floor cleaning master, Great Guang Yu, one-click convenient operation, worry-free and effortless?
Guang Yu lay on the ground, pouting and glaring back at Ye Zhibai.
Helplessly, she demonstrated another round of shape-shifting.
She shimmered and turned into a brown kitten, jumping onto the chair and curling up motionless.
If you had done this earlier, wouldn’t you have avoided that kick? Why make things difficult for yourself?
Only then did Ye Zhibai feel at ease to open the door.
The time taken was a bit long, Zhiyun must be getting anxious waiting.
Turning the lock, opening the door as quickly as possible… Ye Zhibai was dumbfounded.
Standing at the door, Ye Zhiyun was holding a key, about to unlock the door herself!
“…”
“…”
The two looked at each other, their actions freezing simultaneously.
Ye Zhiyun hurriedly hid the key behind her back!
She even whistled, pretending nothing had happened.
Ye Zhibai was greatly shocked. Locking the door was indeed useless!
She has a key!
“Hehe, good evening, sister~”
“Mm, good evening.”
Alright, she’s pretending nothing happened.
Then I didn’t see anything either.
This is what you call high EQ!
Ye Zhiyun stepped into Ye Zhibai’s room.
She closed the door, and with her back to Ye Zhibai, took a deep breath first.
Ah… sister’s scent, thank the heavens for this gift! Tsk, just that cat curled up there is a bit of an eyesore.
Feeling Ye Zhiyun’s unfriendly gaze, Guang Yu finally understood Ye Zhibai’s good intentions in making her curl up and play dead.
Thank you, Ye Zhibai, you really are a kind human.
Next time I’ll add wasabi to your water cup.
Then, Ye Zhiyun’s gaze inadvertently fell on Ye Zhibai’s bed — where the fountain pen was lying.
Ye Zhiyun’s expression changed instantly!
A noticeable dimming, an undisguisable disappointment.
Ye Zhibai walked around to face her, hands behind her back, tilting her head to look at Ye Zhiyun’s expression, and asked in a monotone.
“Zhiyun, what’s wrong?”
“Sister is so cute… Ah no! I mean, is sister still very concerned about what she saw in her dream?”
“Things… from the dream?”
Automatically ignoring the first half of Zhiyun’s sentence, Ye Zhibai straightened her head.
She wasn’t tilting her head to be cute, she had been lying on the bed for a while and her neck was a bit stiff!
Ye Zhiyun walked to the bedside, not touching Ye Zhibai’s precious fountain pen, just pointing at it with her finger.
“This pen, sister seems to have been staring at it from time to time since lunch, and hasn’t put it away now. Is there something sister is still concerned about? Can you tell me? Although I might not be able to help much… but you can just think of it as venting your worries, okay?”
“I’m wondering if the good friend from my dream has been turned to ashes yet…”
“Hm?”
“It’s nothing.”
This was indeed very difficult to describe.
But what a coincidence.
Zhiyun had come this time with a good suggestion.
This suggestion happened to coincide with Ye Zhibai’s current thoughts.
Ye Zhiyun stepped forward, coming in front of Ye Zhibai.
She held Ye Zhibai’s fingers with both hands, her words full of understanding for her sister.
“I was just thinking, didn’t sister say before that this person in your dream was an orphan? Sister is so kind, you must be worried about whether anyone is taking care of his funeral arrangements, and how well they’re being done. Sigh… although I don’t want to admit it, but this person in the dream helped sister understand this world, which is indeed a great deed.”
“You mean…”
“Yes, I mean, tomorrow we’ll arrange for someone to inquire about what’s happened after this person’s death, how the arrangements are. If nothing has been arranged yet, then we’ll pay for a grand enough funeral for him. This way, won’t the worries in sister’s heart dissipate?”
“!”
Not just dissipate!
They’ve turned into carbon dioxide and merged into the atmosphere!
Ye Zhibai was overjoyed inside. Doesn’t this perfectly solve the problem she was just worrying about?
But on the surface, Ye Zhibai only had one word to say.
“Okay.”
Classic.
“That’s great! If sister agrees, then let’s do it this way! However… the cremation process might not be suitable for sister to watch… Why don’t we skip that part, just pay for it, and sister can just attend the funeral?”
“No need, I can watch the whole process, observe it.”
“That’s… that’s fine too, as long as sister is happy.”
Isn’t that right.
I’m so happy.
Being able to watch myself being burned to ashes, who else in the world could have such an experience?
I’m so happy I could die, wuu wuu wuu!
Originally, with this matter settled, Ye Zhibai should go to sleep and wait for the day of her grand farewell to herself.
But Ye Zhiyun suddenly said something that made Guang Yu overjoyed!
“I say… sister, let’s consider tomorrow’s matters tomorrow… but now, it’s time to sleep, right?”
Huh?
Isn’t that right, it’s past 10 o’clock, even BabyBus should be asleep.
But Ye Zhiyun obviously didn’t mean it that way.
Her right hand suddenly covered Ye Zhibai’s soft belly, frightening Ye Zhibai… oh, no, she was super calm (on the surface).
To make it clearer.
Ye Zhiyun leaned close to Ye Zhibai’s ear, almost whispering, with her heart beating wildly, she said softly:
“Today… sister saw my speech at school, right? Wasn’t Zhiyun working very hard? So sister… can you give Zhiyun a little reward?”
