Tang Wan raised her head and looked at the striking red-haired girl floating next to Zhou Li, a trace of bewilderment flickering in her eyes.
“My sister.”
Zhou Li stuffed the silver note into his chest and introduced her, “Her name is Zhou Yi, my sister from a different father and even a different race.”
“Miss Tang, hello, my name is Zhou Yi, the eldest sister of my brother.”
Waving towards Tang Wan, the red-haired girl with a ponytail revealed her small fangs and smiled brilliantly at Tang Wan.
Just as Tang Wan was about to wave back, she suddenly remembered her “Tang Wan must become manly” plan and her raised hand stiffened mid-air.
Then, clenching her fist with vigor, she made an encouraging gesture and said with a rough voice,
“Just call me Uncle Tang.”
Ah?
Zhou Yi was taken aback, her lips parting slightly as she stared dumbfounded at the girl pretending to have a beard in front of her.
Is my brother’s friend a fool?
“It’s nothing.”
Zhou Li glanced at the white-haired girl beside him, who was smug about her transformation, and said nonchalantly, “Your Uncle Tang is a bit mentally challenged, don’t mind her.”
Wow, that’s really aggressive.
Zhou Yi floated beside Tang Wan, scrutinizing the cute sister who claimed to be an uncle.
But no matter how she looked, this sister was a genuine beautiful girl.
Then why did she claim to be an uncle?
“Right, Zhou Yi, why aren’t they surprised to see you?”
Tang Wan asked Zhou Yi, looking at the bustling street with some confusion.
She noted that until now, no one around them seemed surprised by Zhou Yi floating in mid-air.
“Ah~”
Zhou Yi drifted over to a woman picking radishes and waved gently at her, but the woman showed no reaction and continued to haggle with the vendor.
After doing this, Zhou Yi returned to Zhou Li’s side and cheerfully told Tang Wan,
“I’ve now learned to reveal my Soul Spirit only to specific people, so apart from Miss Tang and my brother, no one else can see me.”
“Oh~~”
Tang Wan had an epiphany, then her brows furrowed as if she was muttering to herself about a revelation, “So that means…”
“Exactly.”
Zhou Li sighed and said bluntly to the crowd’s odd looks, “To the passersby, we are two idiots talking to thin air.”
“Hehe~~~”
Zhou Yi tucked her long hair behind her ear, laughing nervously.
Tang Wan did not inquire about Zhou Yi’s origin; instead, with round eyes, she followed Zhou Li like a Samoyed that drank fake liquor.
She started pondering how she could further masculinize her behavior.
Eureka!
“Oh, by the way, the old scholar seems to be looking for us.”
Just as a fantastic idea popped into Tang Wan’s head, Zhou Li suddenly stopped, turned around, and said to Tang Wan,
“Seems like he discovered something with the zombies, wants us to take a look.”
“Oh.”
Lost in her gradually enriching plan, Tang Wan nodded instinctively and echoed, “Sure, sure.”
“Let’s buy some candies on the way, sister wants to eat.”
“Sure, sure.”
“What do you think this is?”
“Sure, sure.”
“I’m thinking of drowning you in a manure pit.”
“Alright, alright…wait!”
Tang Wan’s face turned pale as she was lifted by Zhou Li.
She mechanically turned her head, looked at the amiable Zhou Li and forced a reluctant smile, “I think this might not be a good idea.”
Zhou Li brought Tang Wan to his face, squinting his eyes and asked thoughtfully, “Are you up to some mischief again, lad?”
“Not this time.”
Raising four fingers, Tang Wan’s little face was serious as she said earnestly, “I’ve found the key to reclaiming my masculinity.”
“Oh?”
Zhou Li raised an eyebrow, released Tang Wan, and asked curiously, “What did you think of?”
“Hmm-hmm.”
Tang Wan placed her hands on her hips and laughed mysteriously, “You’ll see soon enough.”
Zhou Yi, floating in midair, shifted her gaze from an old man making sugar figures to the side and started to wonder as she listened to their conversation.
Masculinity…
Watching the cute and petite Tang Wan humming a tune and hopping along the street, Zhou Yi pondered.
Could it be that masculinity is the trend of the times?
Looking at her own slender and symmetrical arms, Zhou Yi subconsciously bent them but failed to reveal the muscular build that Zhou Li possessed; instead, her skin was as soft and smooth as snow.
Not at all~~~
As a delicate girl who could pulverise a mountain god that stood several dozen meters tall with a single punch, Zhou Yi sighed and then a fierce flame ignited in her heart.
If that’s the case, I’ll train too!
For some reason, Zhou Li felt a chill down his spine as he walked down the street.
He turned his head, and to his left was a silver-haired girl with her hands behind her back, casually taking in the surrounding scenery.
He looked to the other side, where Zhou Yi with her fiery red hair was floating in mid-air, her clear and pure eyes revealing a beautiful longing.
There shouldn’t be…
any problem…
right?
About fifteen minutes later, the familiar Maple Forest Manor appeared before the trio.
Zhou Li approached the gate and scoffed at the tightly locked door on the other side.
“I’ll do it.”
Tang Wan stepped forward, rolled up her sleeves proficiently, moved beside the door, and smiled confidently, “I’ve been out of practice for so long, I need to find the old feeling again.”
Before Zhou Li could speak, Tang Wan went straight for a slide tackle at the gap under the door.
Bang!!!
Following the activation of the explosion magic formation, Tang Wan, covered in dust, scrambled to Zhou Li’s side and leaned on his shoulder, coughing nonstop.
“Why didn’t you, cough cough, warn me sooner…
cough cough.”
Zhou Li glanced at Tang Wan, who looked like a little flower cat, shrugged his shoulders, and said, “You charged so fast I didn’t even have the chance to stop you.
My fault, huh?”
Zhou Li stepped forward, crouched down, and unceremoniously removed a light blue stone placed behind the door.
With the sound of the dissipating Spirit Qi, the black smoke at the door gap also vanished.
Tang Wan stared blankly as Zhou Li casually pushed the door open with an air of nonchalance.
After a moment, Tang Wan turned to Zhou Yi and said gravely, “Don’t follow your brother’s example.
He’s really bad news.”
Looking at the not-so-bright Tang Wan, a trace of pity crossed Zhou Yi’s eyes.
She nodded, mumbling an unclear ‘hmm’, then turned her head, pretending to gaze at the scenery.
It was the familiar corridor of books, the familiar flower beds, the familiar vegetable garden, but alas, there was no sign of the junior brother scooping manure whom they had met last time, which left Zhou Li feeling quite disappointed.
After a while, Zhou Li and Tang Wan arrived at the door of the old scholar’s room.
This time, Tang Wan was wiser.
“After you, Zhou Li.”
In a humble gesture of invitation, Tang Wan did not dare to knock on the door herself, afraid of repeating the tragedy of the door gap explosion.
“He’s not stupid, what normal person would…
”
Zhou Li was somewhat speechless, stretched out his hand, and pushed the door open.
Then he fell silent looking at the old scholar who was sticking his head into the Peashooter’s mouth.
Close the door.
Take a deep breath.
Open it again.
Seeing the old scholar in front of him turning the Peashooter upside down and preparing to stick his head into the tubular stem, Zhou Li was shocked.
What do you think?
