100 No need to verify (1/2)
Wang Reiji's slow and shallow breaths pummeled with her heart beat as her consciousness drifted in to dreamland where a fragment of her memory suddenly started playing inside her head.
”Oi, Xing Yin! Are you sure your plan is gonna work? Let's not make trouble for ourselves!”
”Oi , Yang Mei! Are you really my friend? How about you trust me more?” Wang Reiji was busy prepping herself in front of a life size mirror inside her walk-in closet while her best friend was sitting on her bed, impatiently waiting for her.
”You just have to wait and see! Even Detective Di Renjie won't even see through my disguise!” Wang Reiji giggled as she donned a pair of oversize white cat ears eyeglasses to finish her get up. Her smile broadened as she scanned herself from head to foot and felt overly satisfied with her look.
She wore a gray off-shoulder V-neck cross sweater paired with a black high waist pencil skirt. Her hair which she usually let loose, was tightly pulled into a bun. She also wore make up and tinted her lips with a bright red lipstick in contrast to her usual bare face.
”Huh! Even my ancestors won't recognize me!” Wang Reijie said proudly. She then marched out of her closet, eager to see the surprise look on her best friend's face.
As soon as she was in the closet door, she paused, stood up straight, shoulders back, core in, and chest out. She then asked, ”How do I look?”
It took a second or two for Yang Mei's brain to process the scene before her eyes. Even she knew that the person in front of her was her best friend, she can't help but stare at her in awe, wondering if she was admiring Xing Yin's beauty or she wanted to look like her. Unfortunately, she was originally born a male, thus she didn't possess the natural charm of a female species.
”Hey, Yang Mei-Kao! Don't tell me you are starting to get attracted to me? Too late my dear! You already have your mighty sword cut!” Wang Reiji grinned at Yang Mei, teasing her a bit.
”Ee a lawyer. I will support that dream ofyours. Besides, what's to be afraid of when I already incurred the wrath of your entire clan when I paid for your operation anyway?”
Yang Mei abruptly raised her shoulders, tossing Wang Reiji's face away from her.
”You! Don't tell me you are just helping to become a lawyer so that I can repay you when I become successful?!”
”Wow! You are really smart, Atty. Yang Mei!” Wang Reiji chuckled as Yang Mei hit her with a pillow.
”Thank you, Yin. I thought you only have big boobs and ass. You also have a big heart too.” Yang Mei smiled warmly as she tightly embraced her friend.
”How can you soundsweet and disgusting at the same time?”Wang Reiji asked as she hugged her friend back.
”Of course, my mentor is an expert.”
As soon as the best friends' drama was over, they hurriedly drove toward Yang Mei's university. Their plan was to make Yang Mei pass the final stage of the student exchange program which required an interview with any member of the applicant's family. However, since the Yang clan had already turned their back at her, this final stage became a major obstacle. And the only solution they have in mind was to find a person who will post as a member of Yang Mei's family. Initially, they opted to hire a con artist, but dismissed the idea later on due to safety reasons.
”You ready, sister?” Yang Mei halted her steps, her voice almost tremble from too much nervousness.
”Shouldn't I be the one asking you that? Geez, Mei-Mei! Act natural!” Wang Reiji discreetly reminded her friend.
The two of them began walking toward the waiting area again. As soon as they reached their destination, they sat on one of the couches. It didn't take long for a university staff to approach them.
”Excuse me, are you here for the interview?” A woman in her mid 30s politely asked.
”Yes. My cousin Yang Mei's interview is today.” Wang Reiji swiftly replied.
The face of the staff suddenly paled, seemingly hesitant to tell them the bad news.
”I regret to inform you but the last slot for the student exchange program was already reserved for General Prosecutor Zhang's son.”
”WHAT?!” The two yelled in unison.
(End of dream)
”Damn it! Using his father's influence to secure the spot?! I am gonna whip that cheater's ass!”
