Volume 3 Chapter 16: A Small Test of Skill (Part 2)

  Xīn Yuè quickly stir-fried a plate of eggs and radish slices, and brought it over for Bīng Tóng to eat. She then went to check Xià Yán's homework.

  "Hmm, that's great! You're absolutely right!" Xiang Yue closed the book and stroked Xia Yan's head, saying: "You little scamp, I didn't expect you to make progress so quickly!"

  She waited for her brother to say: "This is all the credit of the second sister!" But instead, she heard Bingtong's old voice saying: "This is all my credit!"

  "Bingtong! You're talking nonsense!" Xiaoyan was so scared that he almost died and quickly stopped Bingtong from continuing.

  "Heh heh, Bingtong, you're being too arrogant, aren't you? What does this have to do with you?" Xinyue said, looking at the greedy rabbit.

  Bingtong swallowed a mouthful of food and said, "Think about it, if I didn't discipline him strictly, would he be so obedient? Don't worry, his studies from now on won't need you to worry about! And if there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me!"

  "You're still quite knowledgeable! No wonder you wear big glasses!" Xinyue happily picked up the rabbit and held it in her arms.

  "Wait, I haven't finished eating yet! And don't drool on your clothes, it's not good!"

  Xīnyuè saw that there were still two or three dishes left on the plate, smiled and put down the ice crystal: "It seems you haven't eaten enough?"

  Bingtong filled up both plates and then wiped her mouth, saying: "It's alright, it's alright! You don't have to go to any more trouble!"

  "Hey, you still know how to be polite!" Xia Yan teased.

  "Hey kid, go get me a toothpick!" Ice Eyes started giving orders.

  "Alright, let's go!" Xia Yan rushed out of the door like a whirlwind.

  "Hey little beauty, you're back late today! From now on, just come home on time and cook for me, I think eventually I'll grant one of your wishes!"

  "Really? Then it's settled!" Xinyue was overjoyed! It seems like going back is only a matter of time! But, but... Xinyue suddenly thought of the mistress of this house and stuttered: "Can I, can I have two wishes granted?"

  "Hey, I didn't think you were so greedy! But anyway, as you know, my abilities are limited right now, and apart from being a bit clever, I can't do anything big... I understand your grievances, let's just say I owe you one, okay? When I recover my powers, don't just ask for one thing, ask for a hundred or a thousand, just open your mouth!"

  "Oh my! Ice, you're so cute!" Xiang Yue suddenly lifted the rabbit up and spun around in circles in the middle of the room.

  "Stop! Oh dear ancestor, spare me..."

  "Here's your toothpick!" Xia Yan handed over the toothpick with a smile.

  "Put me down quickly! Do you want to let me live for two more days? Although it's great to be held by a beauty, I'm not a toy, please respect me! Don't treat me like a kid and hold me in your arms all the time! Ah, those were the days..."

  "Good! Good!" Xinyue quickly put the old rabbit on the chair, and the two siblings looked at the rabbit lying there with its big belly, picking its teeth.

  "Right!" Xinyue asked: "Have you found Silver Hoof?"

  "Alas, it's been found! But it's stupid and can't speak, who knows if it's the real Silver Hoof?"

  "What if it's really a silver hoof?" Xiangyue asked curiously.

  "Alas, if it's really Silver Hoof, I'm afraid there's no cure! It's probably been sealed for too long and has gone stupid! Even worse than me! You know, back then we were the two great demon kings ruling the north and south! Alas, life is unpredictable... one moment you're fine, the next you wake up like this! Just thinking about it..."

  "It's like a rabbit! Haha... Summer Yan felt amused."

  Xīn Yuè was afraid that Lǎo Tùzi would be upset again, so she pushed Xià Yán and comforted him: "You don't know how cute you look now! Why think about the past? What's good about being a demon king? Everyone hates you! After death, you'll go to hell! Since heaven has tamed you, it's likely that you're meant to be transcended to become a true god!"

  "Ah! I didn't think of that! Hehe... Cute little beauty, you extinguished the last bit of anger in my heart! Thank you! Thank you so much! Haha..." Bing Tong burst out laughing unusually.

  Xīn yuè xīn xiǎng, dōu shì zì jǐ hào qí xīn hài de, kě néng bǎo bīng tóng de fēng yìn gěi jiāo zǎo le...

  In physical education class, classmates were paired up in twos to practice volleyball. Xinyue happened to be paired with Yuduo, and she felt a bit clumsy, always hitting the ball too far away.

  Xin Yue smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "How come my hands are no longer obedient? Ah, I'm getting old, my skills have declined, can't compare to you young and vigorous little girls, cough cough!"

  Don't look at Yu Duo's ordinary appearance, but he is a master of playing volleyball! Other track and field events like throwing iron discs and shot put are also very good. At this time, hearing Xiang Yue say so, she felt that she was carrying a big burden, and couldn't help but chuckle: "When did you have skills? It's always been a mess hitting the ball! Now it's already not bad!"

  Xīn Yuè suddenly came to her senses. When she was a boy, whether it was basketball or volleyball, although not particularly good at it, but still could play beautifully. Now that she's controlling Xīn Yuè's body, it's a whole different story! It can be seen that Qing Chi is so savage! There's a frantic energy in her bones! As soon as she makes a move, the ball flies away. She must be extra careful herself! Lighter, even lighter!

  "Have you gone on a date with Yan Wei recently?" Xinyue asked casually while dribbling the ball.

  "I don't have so much free time! We agreed to meet every Monday."

  "Is it you who doesn't have the leisure or is it him?" Xiangyue said with a hint of implication.

  "Of course, he is very busy too..."

  "You've been cheated, did you know?" Xinyue said frankly, holding the ball in her hand.

  "Didn't I tell you that the beauty is his sister? What do you mean? You're jealous because someone's chasing me, aren't you?" Yu Duo snatched the ball back.

  "Slow down! I'm telling you, you've really been deceived! If you don't believe me, go ask Hei Tong and Huo Yang from Class 7. Last night we saw Yan Wei with another girl wearing glasses again! That girl is so ugly! I even went up to ask him if the girl with glasses was his sister..."

  "Damn it!" Yu Duo slammed the volleyball in his hand to the ground.

  "Yu Duo, don't be angry! It's not worth it for someone like him!"

  "Xīnyuè!" Yu Duo grabbed Xīnyuè's hand and said: "You must help me! Tonight we're going to catch that pair of scoundrels!"

  "Is this really necessary?"

  "It's absolutely necessary! I'm going to pull out that woman's hair! Let that little scoundrel Wanyan lie on the ground and beg for mercy!"

  "But maybe we can't beat them..." Xiang Yue didn't expect Yu Duo to be so angry, and was scared.

  "Who wants you to hit people? You just need to call your pursuers, let them all listen to my command, and that momentum will scare people to death!"

  "There's no need for such a big fuss..."

  "Do you still consider me a friend? Can't even help with this little bit of trouble? It's just a matter of moving your lips!"

  "Alas, Yu Duo! Don't you have a brain? If we don't want everyone to know about this matter, let's keep a low profile. Can't you just ignore him and be done with it? Do you think that kid will really bow his head to you? At most, he'll just make a fool of himself."

  "Hum, in any case, I won't let him off easily! At least he has to return the money he cheated from me!"

  "Never mind, Yu Duo, this might be it! Alas, who made you...". Xinyue said, seeing Yu Duo sit on the ground with a thud and start crying sadly.

  "Yu Duo, Yu Duo, don't be like this, it's not worth it for that little kid..." Xiang Yue hurriedly squatted down to comfort him.

  "Woe... The full do not know the hungry! You're a beauty praised by all, with all the boys surrounding you, of course you can speak lightly! We 'inferior goods' finally get a boyfriend, but he's a cheat! Woe... What's the point of my living..."

  "You're too much! Don't you know how to appreciate yourself? In my eyes, you're a kind and lively girl, very lovely! There are always people who can recognize 'treasures'!"

  "It's easy for you to say! If you were a boy, would you fall in love with me?" Yu Duo stared at Xiang Yue with tears streaming down her face, looking like a mess.

  "Come on, don't cry anymore, quickly wipe your eyes. Look, your makeup is all smudged, like a little kitten. Xīn Yuè handed over tissues to Yú Duō and sat beside her, letting this poor girl bury herself in her arms and cry nonstop, gently patting her back, but feeling very sorry for her, what should be done? That despicable dark ghost, he must not have a good day!"
