Chapter 41 (1/2)

41 – Gossip about Ye Zhen

With each step spanning a great distance, she hurriedly moved her feet.

Although she wasn't running, but Xue Qilin still moved as fast as the wind.

Little Seven shouldn't be able to catch up, right? Xue Qilin took a look back, and then immediately felt relieved. She didn't see Qi Qiqi's furious figure chasing after her.

As a result, an accident happened.

Xue Qilin suddenly detected another person's aura, and then quickly turned her head.

A girl hastily emerged from a corner and appeared in front of her.

“…!” The two were already very close, and so Xue Qilin hastily pulled the brakes.

The girl apparently sensed that Xue Qilin was about to knock into her, and she widened her eyes in surprise.

There's going to be a collision! It was already too late for Xue Qilin to slow down.

Since the reduction of speed won't work, then I'll jump over! In a moment of panic, Xue Qilin jumped up reflexively.

Her field of vision widened in a split second, and she thought that she has successfully avoid an accident.

The girl's face painted with astonishment once again broke into sight.

She also jumped up.

“Ah!”

“s.h.i.+…”

The two inevitably collided.

Xue Qilin plunged between two soft ma.s.ses, and then sensed a sweet body fragrance that smelled a bit like orange.

The impact wasn't as big as she has imagined, but it was enough for the two to bounce back.

Xue Qilin flipped her body in midair and landed nimbly on the ground, while the girl opposite to her took a few steps back before she stabilized herself.

The girl was pet.i.te, probably only a little taller than Xue Qilin, but her upper body was well developed.

Wavy, shoulder-length hair and big almond eyes complemented each other to create a unique picture.

“Oh, so it's you, Little Xue…” Xue Qilin scratched her face, “I'm sorry! I didn't notice you, hha…”

At this moment, Xue Qilin quickly withdrew her gaze.

Perhaps the motion was too big, but part of her dress turned up, revealing half of Xia Xue's thigh.

Xia Xue who apparently has also detected this shot Xue Qilin an unhappy look.

“Really, Young Ancestor, running so fast, were you rus.h.i.+ng to reincarnate?” As she tidied herself up, Xia Xue criticized the Young Ancestor.

“If I didn't run fast, I might really have to reincarnate.” Xue Qilin spread her hands.

She has just finished speaking, when Xia Xue reacted and asked, gloating: “Have you offended the Temple Master?”

Xue Qilin didn't found it strange when Xia Xue guessed the reason.

Of the Merak Temple's five Elders, none of them was an idiot. On the contrary, they were all clever people, not to mention that the other party was very familiar with Qi Qiqi.

“Isn't it just a few drops of ink on her foot…” Xue Qilin added with emphasis, “I was just a bit careless!”

“Oh, and you're still alive?” Xia Xue covered her mouth with her palm, and feigned a look of surprise, “Junior Sister Temple Master takes bath three times per day!”

In other words, Qi Qiqi has an obsession with cleanliness.

When she thought she has dirtied a “girl” who was not only a clean-freak, but also had violent tendencies, Xue Qilin shuddered, “Is, is it…”

“It seems that our Young Ancestor is rather cowardly!” Seeing Xue Qilin's reaction, Xia Xue made fun of her while playing with her hear.

“I'm suffering! You see my small body, how can I not surrender to the Temple Master's tyrannical abuse?”

“Tyrannical abuse~” Xia Xue didn't know what to think, “If I told Junior Sister Temple Master what you just said, what would happen to you?”

Xue Qilin's complexion turned sluggish, and she pleaded at once: “Don't! I want to see the sun of tomorrow!”

“Well…” Xia Xue showed a reluctant look on her face, “How do we settle this?”

“With a meal!” Xue Qilin clenched her teeth and suggested.

Although it couldn't be said that she knew her inside out, but Xue Qilin roughly knew what this girl with a poisonous tongue was after.

“In Luoyang's Shangbai House?” Looking askance at Xue Qilin, Xia Xue asked flatly.

This Little Xue is merciless! Xue Qilin breathed in.

Shangbai House is one of the most high-end restaurants in Luoyang, and the people who frequent it are all wealthy.

She still remembers going to Shangbai House to have a meal. Even though the two of them ordered cheaper dishes and the shopkeeper gave them a 40% discount on account that they were from the Merak Temple, but the bill was still more than 20 silver taels [1].

Although Qi Qiqi ate five times as much as ordinary people, but when paid separate, Xue Qilin raked up a bill close to four silver taels.

Xue Qilin's monthly allowance is only five silver taels. In other words, Xia Xue wanted her monthly allowance.

“So, do we have a deal?” Xia Xue looked a little disappointed, but what came from her mouth was the following: “Or I might have to tell the Temple Master.”
