799 Mutual Harm (2/2)

Sihwa intended to extend her fingers towards Fina so she could flexibly wiggle them in front of her and ridicule her as a stupid Orange Tabby who was both arrogant and self-deprecating!

However, when the words were on the edge of her mouth, she recalled what Zhang Zian had said earlier: ”Don't do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you.” Suddenly, she felt a little soft-hearted and swallowed the words back. She knew that once the words left her mouth, Fina would definitely retaliate by ridiculing her for being a stinky, salted fish that would never be able to leave the bathtub for her entire life. Then another fight of bloodshed would begin.

Fina saw Sihwa's lips twitch while her eyes were fixed on its paws. It did not look like she was going to say anything good, so Fina, too, fixed her gaze on Sihwa's light blue caudal fin, planning to ridicule her for not having legs; it had even thought of the nickname ”fish no legs.” The nickname probably came from the television show that Old Time Tea watched. Fina occasionally heard that there was a person with the name Lu Youjiao, which meant Lu with legs…

In the end, Sihwa extended out her fingers but she did not wiggle them. Instead, she held her phone and said softly while pouting, ”You… do you want to play with the phone?

The unexpected development left Fina in a momentary blur. Fina could not help but look at her suspiciously, thinking that it was a trap. She was using her phone to lure the queen over, then she would splash it with dirty water… The stupid, stinky, salted fish was able to set up traps now?

Fina did not approach Sihwa carelessly, because once it got wet, its fur would stick to its body, its usual grace would all disappear, and it would definitely be laughed at by Sihwa. Fina did not move from the entrance; its current position allowed it to go on the offensive or to retreat with ease––it was waiting to see what Sihwa had planned out.

Sihwa raised her phone. Offering her phone was already the greatest good will she could offer. The phone was currently her biggest pleasure, so what would happen if Fina were to run away with it? What if Fina damaged the phone by dropping it? Cheapskate Zhang Zian would definitely not buy her a new phone and she could only continue her boring days staring at the ceiling.

Her arm was starting to feel sore, so she swapped hands.

”You… you don't want to play?”

Somewhere in the bottom of her heart, she was hoping for Fina to reject her offer. She was even wishing for Fina to take the initiative to ridicule her and start a fight so they could just battle it out.

Fina raised its legs and walked two steps inside the bathroom. Most of its body was now exposed, but it was still being vigilant; it was prepared to retreat out of the bathroom at any time.

Fina had absolute confidence in its dynamic vision and speed. From its days of observation, it knew that when Sihwa's abdominal muscles contracted, it meant that she was going to use her fishtail to attack. Fina didn't even need to wait for Sihwa's tail to be out of the water to know.

However, Sihwa's abdomen remained relaxed throughout. There was no sign of force being used, and Sihwa's soft, flexible arms did not pose a threat to it at all.

As Fina walked closer, Sihwa waved her phone and said reluctantly, ”There's not much battery left, so I can only let you play with it for a while––only a while, okay? Really just a little while! I can't even bear to play with it myself!”

Fina hesitated for a moment. If it were to continue to walk towards Sihwa, it would no longer have the confidence to avoid Sihwa's water attack. Sihwa's caudal fin was very strong and the water that she splashed out hit like a bullet. If Fina were to receive the attack head-on, it could even send it flying towards the wall.

Fina had always seen Zhang Zian playing with his phone, so it knew that there were a lot of fun things in there. But it also knew that it was unable to operate the phone with its paws, so it had always put on the act that it doesn't care for it.

What Fina really wanted to know was what exactly Sihwa was planning.

The only way to get the answer was to risk itself.

But it was Fina Paris XIII, the guardian of the Kingdom of Eternity. It was not even afraid of the mighty Caesar, so why would it be afraid of a small, salted fish?

So, Fina leaped forward and in a flash and landed on the edge of the bathtub close to Sihwa.
