Chapter 38: The World Falls Silent Once More

  The breathing of the arrow that has left the string has gradually calmed down, looking up at Xiaoyu with a reluctant gaze, her voice soft and gentle enough to make people turn their heads: "Say it again, I'm not here to quarrel with you this time, please let unrelated people scatter."

  Haiying quietly reminded him: "Xiaoyu, this delicate young lady isn't here to quarrel, she's here to fight."

  "This slender arm, slender leg, and slender head, with a short neck and waist, and even shorter legs, this delicate Pacific physique, without even a meat pad, can it withstand our punches and kicks?"

  "No way, in this era, all living and non-living things can evolve, even M is no exception." Haiying said with a leisurely attitude, "So, Miss Ji's loneliness is really terrifying, not to mention the big men who don't take her seriously, let alone us two delicate girls?"

  "It makes sense, but the only decent gunner just got into a fight, and now you want to take on a private enterprise single-handedly? What if she accidentally ignites the fuse and blows herself up? Has she already prepared for that eventuality? Little Feather looked down at Miss M's pale face with her overwhelming height advantage, "Tell me, do you think you look better like this or as cannon fodder?"

  "Xiao Yu, when did your aesthetic taste become so low? You actually asked if the cremated ashes are good-looking. When you see her snow-white and delicate ashes, aren't you going to fall in love?" Hai Ying said, stretching out the umbrella in her hand with a flourish. "However, miss, if you keep getting sunburned like this, I estimate that by the time it's all over, even your ashes will have black spots. People will take one look and know you didn't do good deeds when you were alive. Let me help you salvage what little reputation you have left, okay?"

  I quietly tugged at Ha Ying's sleeve, kind-hearted person, why don't you cover up the ashes for me...

  Miss Mi finally couldn't bear it anymore, and two raging fires suddenly ignited in her eyes. She slapped the umbrella handle heavily with one palm, just about to speak, when she was suddenly turned around by a strong force from behind. I saw He Motian's pale face looking gloomy like a thick layer of dark clouds had covered it. Of course, although they had just quarreled, his girlfriend being scolded in such a way would make any man angry.

  "Come with me." The voice was no longer hoarse, and had regained its original magnetism and depth, but the flat tone made it impossible to discern any emotions.

  They didn't even find our fault? I was slightly surprised, and then continued to hold my arm and stopped looking at this pair of troublemakers, just hoping they could go back to their own nest and close the door to vent freely. I also wanted to go back and apply sunscreen, and with a flourish, I wiped away the raging waves on my snowy white skin.

  But heaven did not grant me my wish, and fate had it that the situation would develop in an increasingly chaotic direction, also destined for me to be poisoned by ultraviolet rays and suffer heatstroke today.

  "I won't go back!" Li Chi struggled free from his grasp, "Mo Tian, today you must have a thorough showdown with her. If you don't make things clear to her, she won't give up!"

  "There's nothing that can't be let go of, those are all things of the past, you're not unaware, I don't have any feelings for her."

  "But she did, she loved you to that extent before, how could she just let go? Women are very persistent when it comes to love, I'm a woman too, I understand that feeling, she absolutely didn't give up so easily!"

  "Enough!" He Mochen rebuked in a low tone, then seemed to realize his tone was too heavy and lowered his voice further. "Listen, follow me back, your current state is making things difficult for me."

  "Silent heaven, I'm thinking of our future!" Li Chi slightly opened her big eyes, which were shining with tears, and pointed at me with her slender fingers, "You may not take her as anyone important, but she has ulterior motives. Otherwise, why would she insist on opening a dessert shop here instead of somewhere else? It's because she knows you're in University Town, and she wants to cling to you and snatch you away from me!"

  At the time when Li Chi was talking as if she was about to cry, I seriously pondered with my scorching hot head whether the "her" in her words referred to me or not. Although I didn't know how she could see through my heart and its unyielding nature, or perhaps it was just a guess... but it seemed that among all the people who knew her present here, only I unfortunately matched the female lead in her play quite well.

  It seems that this year, the handsome guys and beautiful girls who are influenced by Qiong Yao's novels are really not ordinary. He Mochen has said many times that he doesn't like me, but this Qiong Yao fan still ignores that important evidence and insists on having a thorough showdown with me. The people around us can't help but sigh, among whom I am the one who is most seriously affected, after all, I am the main victim in both body and mind.

  "Don't be unreasonable." He Mian Tian's voice had a hint of anger in it, "Do you think I would wrong you?!"

  "Am I being unreasonable? You say I'm being unreasonable? Mu Tian," the words turned into a mutter, "don't you love me anymore?"

  "Pffft!"

  A passerby who was eating something immediately apologized repeatedly: "Sorry, sorry, miss, you continue, continue..."

  The atmosphere was ruined, Li Chiwei's face suddenly turned black, paired with her reddened eyes, and I suddenly had the unkind thought of recalling zombies and other non-living things.

  This is not surprising, such a wonderful twist, even if I were eating something, I would spit it out.

  However, thanks to that innocent bystander's unexpected interruption, the small feathered ones finally had a chance to make a stunning comeback against the main character.

  "What's wrong with you two, didn't we already show mercy by not sending you both to the hospital last year? We thought that was enough and just wanted to forget about it, but why do you still have the nerve to appear in front of Yaoyao?! Are you waiting for another 'accident' where someone breaks their arm or leg and gets covered in blood before you'll stop?! And today, you actually dare to come here and act like lunatics, don't you even consider yourselves human beings?! How do you two manage to be so despicable?!" Xiaoyu put away her umbrella and was about to rush over when she was stopped by Haixing.

  "What's the point of bringing up the past? Anyone with eyes can see that Yaoyao opened her dessert shop here because this night market street is booming, and we're all here. Now Yaoyao is happily being her own boss, and you two are just meddling in her life and business, like your lives are too dull or something. Why don't you go play with self-mutilation? Just get to the point, what do you want by coming here and stirring up trouble today?"

  He Mochen's pale face looked even more unsightly, and he frowned, saying: "It's not that big of a deal, we're just passing by."
