11: Go on a Date with Me
Yuan Xiaoning thought that if she wasn’t supposed to speak, she could just be put down to silently play with her phone on mute.
But Bai Ling had already closed her eyes, concentrating, so she didn’t dare disturb her.
Ah, hopefully she’ll be quick.
In another room, Zhang Shanshan was arguing with her mother, Huang Ling.
“Mom, what did I say wrong? Why are you all like this!”
“Your father said not to get involved in this matter.”
“So we’re just going to watch that White girl and her busty lover ride roughshod over us? This is our home!”
“Don’t concern yourself with this, your father…”
“No! I must… yawn.”
As Zhang Shanshan was yelling at her mother, a sudden wave of drowsiness washed over her, and she collapsed into a chair, falling asleep.
Huang Ling also fell onto the bed.
Without idle chatter, the villa became very quiet, with only one person’s voice clearly audible.
Ring ring ring, ring ring ring, beep.
“What is it?” a deep voice came through the phone.
It had a strong electronic distortion, not the original voice.
“Mr. Gray, pardon the intrusion. It’s like this…”
Zhang Shengkang carefully explained, telling the other party about Bai Ling’s thoughts and current situation, most importantly about her spiritual awakening and desire to investigate the truth from half a year ago.
“Is the awakening true?”
“Absolutely certain.”
In fact, Zhang Shengkang didn’t know if it was true or not. He had no way to verify it, he was just worried about Bai Ling taking back the family assets.
The other end of the phone was silent for a long time. Just when one might think the call had been disconnected, the deep, hoarse voice finally spoke again:
“You don’t need to worry about this matter. You just need to report her whereabouts to me when she goes out.”
Zhang Shengkang hesitated for a moment, asking softly: “Like before?”
“Yes!” Mr. Gray on the other end laughed hoarsely, “Just like half a year ago!”
Bai Ling unconsciously clenched her fists.
Although she had long suspected in her past life that those who assassinated her and those who killed her parents were the same group, and that this relative family was involved, when she actually heard the other party admit it, she still had trouble controlling her emotions.
Next, Zhang Shengkang reported Bai Ling’s recent activities to the other party in detail, not omitting even minor details of her daily life.
Bai Ling’s anger gradually increased.
Yes, this was how they did it in her past life, selling her out to the shadowy figures behind the scenes, subjecting her to wave after wave of endless assassination attempts.
In those days filled with blood, her fingers were broken, her eyes injured, she was battered and travel-worn, as if the entire world was bent on her destruction.
And the source of all this suffering was merely a phone call and a few meaningless words of nonsense.
How laughable.
In her arms, the blonde girl suffered.
Yuan Xiaoning wanted to speak but held back, then wanted to hold back but speak, trembling, not daring to say a word.
No, they offended you, why are you bullying me? Ouch… be gentle, be gentle.
Ah, the protagonist is like this, overbearing and unreasonable.
Being the villainess is really too unfair.
After who knows how long, Bai Ling finally opened her eyes.
Yuan Xiaoning raised her little head and saw that her face was ice-cold, her eyes a crimson red, very frightening.
“Are you in a bad mood?”
“Yes,” Bai Ling’s tone was emotionless, “Bad.”
More than bad, she felt like killing someone.
This phone call, although it let her hear useful information, also stirred up many hateful memories.
The anger that was stirred up needed to be vented.
“Being angry is bad for your health,” the blonde girl said with concern, “Do something else, relax a bit.”
See how good I am to you, even worried about your health.
Bai Ling didn’t speak, just silently looked at her.
Yuan Xiaoning suddenly felt a sense of danger.
“No, it can’t be,” the blonde girl forced a smile, “I just followed your instructions and didn’t open my mouth.”
“On this point, you indeed did well,” Bai Ling put her down, “So there won’t be any punishment.”
Though she said this, Bai Ling was raising her hand to undo her collar.
Yuan Xiaoning blinked in confusion: “No punishment, then what are you doing?”
“A reward.”
“Huh?!”
The blonde girl was bewildered: “How can you do this, we clearly agreed…”
“I never promised not to do anything to you.”
“You’re twisting words… Eep!”
Bai Ling pressed her down with one hand, expressionless:
“What, are you not convinced?”
Seeing those crimson eyes, Yuan Xiaoning softly shuddered.
“I’m convinced, I’m convinced.”
Then the steaming began—
“Wuwuwu, why is it like this.”
“Why do I suffer when others offend you.”
“Wuwuwu… waa.”
In her hazy state, the blonde girl once again recalled the priest’s admonition, hearing him call out about heaven being made… and then she fainted.
Who knows how long it was, but when Yuan Xiaoning woke up again, she saw that it was already bright outside.
The violation started after dinner, she didn’t know when she fainted, but looking at her phone, it was already 9 AM.
Bai Ling wasn’t in the room, having gotten up and gone out long ago.
“Always overdoing it, always overdoing it, that’s all you know how to do,” Yuan Xiaoning spoke ill of her softly, “I don’t know what future wife could endure you.”
You really think others are like me, also having the Water Dragon King’s recovery ability.
[Ding dong, please continue to work hard on the new day as well. There are four days left until the weekly task settlement time.]
“Don’t rush, don’t rush, I know,” the blonde girl sighed, “It really is when it rains, it pours. Misfortune always finds the unfortunate.”
Endured a round of violation for nothing, and the task still isn’t completed.
She tidied up her clothes, used her ability to clean up, fixed her appearance, and opened the door to walk out.
She didn’t see Bai Ling anywhere outside either, until she looked up and found the big villain enjoying the breeze on the balcony.
Yuan Xiaoning tiptoed up, thinking of suddenly calling out to startle her, but Bai Ling spoke first:
“Awake?”
“Not awake, sleepwalking,” Yuan Xiaoning puffed her fragrant cheeks, “What about you, have you vented your anger?”
Very resentful, meaning you were angered outside, why vent it on me.
Bai Ling turned around, shaking her head: “Some fires can’t be extinguished with water, only blood can do it.”
Yuan Xiaoning’s face paled in fright: “No, no, no, I give in, don’t shed my blood.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t use your blood.” Bai Ling glanced at her sideways, “You’re too useful, I haven’t had enough of you yet.”
“Right, right, that’s so right, sustainable development is the best.”
Yuan Xiaoning patted her chest, letting out a big sigh of relief.
Scared me to death, I thought she had heard me talking bad about her behind her back.
“So, are you better now?” Bai Ling asked.
“Better from what?” Yuan Xiaoning tilted her head, indicating she didn’t understand.
Bai Ling didn’t answer her, continuing to speak on her own: “You should be better. Given the recovery ability you’ve shown the past few times, sleeping until now, you must be fine.”
Emmmm, although I am indeed better, but why ask this? You’re not thinking of doing it again, are you?
As Yuan Xiaoning was thinking fearfully, Bai Ling suddenly came over, wrapped her arms around her slender waist, and hugged her gently like a lover:
“Will you go on a date with me this afternoon?”
