Chapter 85: Rui Bing (2/2)

Before they left the room, Rui Su hopped down and stuck out her tongue, speaking mischievously, ”Heehee, can’t let them see this, if not, your elder sister’s going to lose face!”

Rui Bing affected an expression that meant she knew that as well!

Rui Su knew that her younger sister, obsessed with the martial arts, was a very traditional person. She had obeyed all the traditions strictly, and resisted modernisation. She even avoided mechs and walked home every day.

In the dining room, Rui Bing sat straight, in full solemnity, while Rui Su was lazily half stretched across the table, with no grace to speak of. As their mother went to get the dishes, Rui Su slid closer to Rui Bing’s side and spoke charmingly, ”Bing Bing, I’m bullied at the academy! Bing Bing, you got to help me!”

Rui Bing replied lightly, ”No!” She understood her elder sister very well, including her nickname as the Witch of the academy. ”Heh, it’s fine if the Witch doesn’t go around messing people, who’d invite trouble upon themselves and mess with the Witch?” thought Rui Bing.

Rui Si explained with a furious undertone ”It’s that Ye Chong, that horrible guy!” Rui Su shook Rui Bing’s shoulders, tears almost escaping her eyes. ”That guy’s new to the academy, and the first thing he did is bully me, and I can’t win against him, *sob*, dearest Bing Bing, you can’t let me be bullied like this!”

Rui Bing watched her elder sister skeptically.

Rui Su cried as she explained further, ”That guy’s amazing! He’s so fast I can’t even see him move!” Rui Bing grew attentive at that, her fighting instincts instantly awoken. In the past 2 years, Rui Bing did not meet any worthy challenger, and one with her level of skills would not be able to improve without real combat experience! As for her elder sister’s insights, Rui Bing still trusted them. Rui Su was more talented than her in martial arts when they were young, but her sister had stopped practicing later on due to a lack of interest. Their father had been unhappy with her decision for a long time. Even so, her elder sister’s skills were better than an average person’s, and if she could not win against someone, then the other party must be on par with a martial arts practitioner!

Seeing her elder sister’s fighting instincts invigorated, Rui Su was secretly pleased, and continued, ”Dearest Bing Bing, he bullied me right in front of everyone else, you must make him pay for this! Dearest Bing Bing, please!” Rui Su implored endearingly.

Rui Bing hesitated, but in the end yielded to her elder sister and nodded in assent!

”Yay!” Rui Su cheered, her arms raised, the tears that once clouded her eyes vanished in an instant. Her glorious smiling face was now without a trace of her previous pitifulness!

Rui Bing could not help but roll her eyes, knowing exactly that this would happen!

Rui Su grinned to herself. She knew that once her younger sister promised something to her, she would definitely keep it!

Rui Su and Rui Bing walked side by side in the Blue Ocean Academy grounds. The duo of beautiful ladies, one flirtatious, another as cold as ice, together as a contrasting existence, turned heads wherever it went.

Rui Bing’s thoroughly white training garb was eye-catching in particular.

The two ladies were not affected in the least by the attention they gathered. For Rui Su, Blue Ocean Academy was her territory, why would she be intimidated? As for Rui Bing, she would probably not even cower before a crumbling mountain, much less in an insignificant situation like this! Their ease with the situation made them look extra confident with themselves.

At Blue Ocean Academy’s modification workshop 1, so-called Blue Ocean Academy’s most advanced modification workshop. The person in charge of the workshop looked at the Witch, instantly terrified. The Witch was still an influential person, the most intimidating person to most, but the headmaster had placed great trust in her. Now that she had asked to enter the workshop, how could he refuse? Besides, Ye Chong was still inside. The rumours running in the academy about the two were numerous, and perhaps the Witch was here on a date. If he interrupted them, he might just be in for some horrible consequences!

The person in charge could see that something was amiss, and immediately left the workshop!

Rui Su and Rui Bing moved into the modification workshop with overbearing confidence!
