Reincarnated as a Poor Little Green Tea, Am I Destined to Be Bullied? - Volume 1 Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Tricked Her Good

***

“I…! That’s not exactly what I meant… It’s just… How should I put it…”

Even someone as domineering as the landlady was at a loss for words.

Lin Yueye hadn’t expected her sudden inspiration and shameless behavior to be so effective.

Of course, she didn’t know.

After all, people can’t see their own faces without external help. The pitiful expression she was making now was an emotion that the old Lin Yueye had never shown before. It was a brand new weapon, with devastating power.

Lin Yueye decided to throw away her dignity.

After all, she had already died once, so many things didn’t matter anymore.

However.

If you think that the group of older ladies who had extensively converted the basketball courts into square dancing areas back then were just pushovers, you’d be gravely mistaken.

The landlady’s spirit had indeed been somewhat shaken.

But she gritted her teeth, stood up from Lin Yueye’s chair, and her attitude was no longer as overbearing as before — this was the only apologetic gesture she could muster for the guilt she felt inside.

“Well… why don’t you pack up your things, young lady? It’s not what you think, auntie really just wants to clear out this room for other purposes, and doesn’t want to rent it out anymore. Haha, thinking about how you’ve lived here for a year and taken good care of our house, how about this, auntie will reduce the rent for your last month. You can take whatever you want to bring with you, just pack it up.”

“Hmm… you’re right, auntie. I also think that if there’s a new tenant, they might not like using the furniture I’ve used…”

“I told you that’s not what I meant! Oh…! You child! Don’t… don’t jump to conclusions!”

Haha, you see, the landlady’s face was flushed from holding back.

Lin Yueye’s beautiful eyes shifted, wiping away the tears she had deliberately squeezed out by keeping her eyes open without blinking.

She didn’t understand why, but she felt no panic at all.

It was as if she had always had this talent, but in her previous life, being a man, she had some inexplicable persistence and never discovered it.

Now, it was like she had opened up a whole new world.

That being said.

This landlady was determined to kick me out, even if I continued to play pitiful, it wouldn’t have a killing effect.

I need to think of something…

Under her silver bangs, her bright red eyes observed the surroundings through the gaps between her fingers as she wiped her tears. The actual look deep in her eyes was not as weak and helpless as she appeared on the surface. Her incredibly clear mind was working rapidly.

Suddenly.

Little Yueye’s gaze stopped on the black fluffy ball lying on the ground.

To be precise, that was Yuebing in her cat form.

The position where she was lying seemed to be…

Just then, Yuebing glanced back at Lin Yueye, and the eye contact between the human and the cat was like a relay in the air, with a subtle tacit understanding.

At this moment, the landlady also happened to notice the cat lying on the ground.

“You’re keeping a cat?” The landlady raised an eyebrow, she hadn’t noticed there was a cat in the room earlier because she was focused on thinking about how to persuade her to leave.

Of course you didn’t notice, I had her rolled up in the blanket earlier.

With a plan in mind, Lin Yueye walked over to the cat.

She imitated the manners she had seen from other girls, holding down the skirt of her white dress before half-squatting beside Yuebing, gently stroking the cat’s head with her hand, her eyes full of tenderness.

“Yes, I heard that keeping a small pet can help change one’s mood. You know I’ve been under a lot of pressure lately, I’m so useless, I can’t handle even the smallest things. So I adopted a little cat, I just picked her up on the street. A poor little creature with no home… Sigh, I don’t know how she would have survived out there during wind and rain if no one had picked her up, with no place to stay…”

“……”

Speaking about the cat, but meaning the person.

The drunkard’s interest is not in the wine, Yueye’s words are not about the cat.

It’s a good thing Lin Yueye was squatting in a position that blocked Yuebing’s head, because Yuebing’s little eyes were rolling so hard in disdain, they were about to roll to the sky.

But to the landlady’s ears, these words were like daggers to the heart.

You’re the kind person who picked up the cat.

Am I the villain kicking people out?

“If you’re keeping a cat, remember to report it to the property management, okay? They have their own regulations.”

“No need, auntie. I was prepared to leave when I picked her up. I’ll pack my things now.”

“There’s no need to rush… Oh! Then you go ahead and get busy, I’ll leave first…”

Hehe, trying to run away now?

Lin Yueye suddenly stood up, her silver hair cascading down her back like a solitary angel, giving off an ethereal feeling, as if she might disappear from this world at any moment.

But when she turned back with a forced smile, it was clearly a brave face, a little angel unwilling to hurt anyone.

She called out to stop the landlady, pointing at the wall behind the bed, gesturing for her to come over.

“Wait a moment, auntie. Before I leave, I should let you know that there’s a safety hazard here. This part has cracked a bit, maybe you should call a renovation worker to take a look someday?”

“Where?”

“Here, you probably can’t see it from there.”

“Let me see.”

The landlady turned back and walked towards the wall edge that Lin Yueye was pointing at.

And on her way over, where Yuebing was lying was right in her path. The room was so small, there was no way around it.

And when the landlady was about to lift her leg to step over Yuebing…

Yuebing suddenly jumped up on the spot!

“Meow!”

“Ah?! What’s wrong with this damn cat… Oh my goodness!!”

— Crash!

The landlady tried to dodge the jumping cat, her body swayed, and she lost her balance, followed by a cry of surprise.

Along with her cry, came the sound of floor tiles breaking.

The landlady looked down and was shocked to find that her foot had stepped into the broken tiles.

Lin Yueye secretly smiled.

She took the bait.

The previous 【Lin Yueye】, a magic brush, your painting played a decisive role.

When Yuebing was lying there earlier, she had used her body to hide the collapsed floor, and had quietly used her paws to erase the paint around the floor.

Then she jumped up on the spot, cooperating with Lin Yueye calling the landlady over, and just as the landlady stepped forward, it created the scene of the landlady breaking the floor tiles on the spot.

While the landlady was cursing in shock and confusion, Lin Yueye quickly ran over with a “worried” frown, supporting the landlady to move her foot out of the rubble.

Before the landlady could speak, little Yueye had already hurriedly spoken before her.

“Are you alright?! This… this is really strange, this place has always been quite solid, hasn’t it? Never mind that for now, are you hurt?!”

“It’s… it’s fine, my goodness… that gave me a big scare, it really scared me…” The landlady was already incoherent.

This was exactly the effect Lin Yueye wanted.

As for showing concern, that was done.

That “class monitor” would probably arrive soon, and I don’t have time to waste anymore.

It’s about time to play the trump card.

Lin Yueye bent down to clean up the broken rubble, throwing them one by one into the trash can, completely looking like she was more shocked than the landlady, at a loss, even forgetting to get a broom.

“I’m… I’m sorry, I’ll get someone to fix it later. It had never broken before… why did it have to happen right before I leave… It must be because I didn’t take good care of it, but I’m glad you’re not hurt… glad you’re not hurt.”

“What are you getting someone to fix for!”

“Eh? But the floor tiles…”

“Wasn’t it me who just broke it?! Child, auntie has been meaning to tell you, don’t take everything upon yourself. This is why people bully you, you know! Let me be frank, kindness invites bullying!”

“I… I understand.”

Brothers.

Look, I’ve tricked her good.
