Chapter 368 - A CAT HITCHHIKER (2/2)
----------
Bai Ze, the 'eternal unlucky one', was driving a two-horse drawn carriage towards the direction of the Wild Land. Inside the carriage was his traitor cousin and the pink-haired witch loli.
He was still sulking a bit. He couldn't understand why he always lose to Su Yuqi. In real life and even inside the game, he couldn't win a verbal argument. That girl was simply his nemesis. And Luo Jin, who should take his side, with them being cousins and all, took Su Yuqi's side instead. As he always did. Bai Ze was close to thinking that Su Yuqi made his cousin drink some ecstasy potion that's why he's so obedient to her.
Bai Ze didn't continue to argue with them and just reluctantly concede. Thus, ending up with him driving this carriage like some coachman or something.
It's because he also wanted to meet up with Shen Ji Yun and Luo Yan as soon as they could. He already sent a message to Shen Ji Yun but he still hadn't read it. He wasn't sure if it was intentional or if he was just in a situation where he couldn't read his messages. But then again, he read Su Yuqi's message. So, why couldn't he read his?
He doubted if he was discriminating against him. After all, between him and Su Yuqi, surely Ji Yun would choose him. Their friendship of more than ten years was surely not just for nothing. So, did that mean that he intentionally didn't read his message? But why?
He once again remembered the reason why they were here. Because of those rumors floating around that Shen Ji Yun and Luo Yan was on a date here. Bai Ze didn't believe a whiff of it. This was Shen Ji Yun they were talking about. The same guy who wouldn't smile even if the prettiest girl confessed to him. Well, granted, Luo Yan was indeed much prettier compared to any girl or boy out there. But still.
Besides, why would Shen Ji Yun even go to a date with his cousin? Although he knew that there were people out there who preferred the same gender, the possibility of his friend liking Luo Yan had never entered his mind. It's not that he had something against two men falling in love. In fact, he had no opinions about it.
His problem here was that one of the people involved was his cousin who was a minor and was in a coma for seven years. So, he didn't like that kind of rumor involving Luo Yan. Not that he believed it, mind you.
In conclusion, the only possibility he could think of why the two were together here was because of a task. Which was more believable and definitely more acceptable.
Bai Ze's train of thought was suddenly cut off when someone called him.
”White Marsh!” – It was a female voice that sounded familiar but he couldn't remember where he heard it.
He looked around. He hadn't yet found the owner of the voice when someone suddenly jumped on the carriage and sat beside him.
It was a girl with short ash brown hair cut into a bob. A pair of cat ears was on top of her head. There were even whiskers on her slightly plump cheeks. She looked a bit plain but her pair of cat-like green eyes were very attention grabbing. It made her face more charming.
Bai Ze, who almost had a heart attack, certainly recognized this girl. No wonder that voice earlier seemed familiar.
”Catnip?”
Xia Li smiled a toothy grin, making her look like some mischievous cat. ”Hi. Mind if I hitchhike?”
