Reincarnated as a Poor Little Green Tea, Am I Destined to Be Bullied? - Volume 1 Chapter 67

Chapter 67: Worry

***

“Yuebing…? Can you explain this to me? What’s that scary purple thing?”

“Chocolate? Don’t you know what chocolate is?”

“If that thing is chocolate, I’ll eat it right here and now.”

“Look at you, trying to scam food again.”

Don’t tell me these useless things, it obviously doesn’t match the style of other snacks.

Lin Yueye carefully got up and came to the table, gently picking up that purple-outlined thing decorated with metal studs.

She squinted for a closer look, and immediately recognized it!

“Isn’t this the collar that Xia Mujin was holding back then?! How did you manage to swipe this too?!”

“It’s not chocolate?!”

What kind of eyesight do you have!

Lin Yueye’s neck felt a phantom pain, and she quickly put this highly “lethal” item on the table, turning back to stare at Yuebing, demanding an explanation.

Yuebing didn’t know either…

The little cat curled up on the bed with paws tucked in, and could only narrate her autumn wind sweeping leaves harvest from that time.

“The situation was very urgent you know, I was worried that if I waited a bit longer she wouldn’t give it, the way she looked at me then, it was like she wanted to turn me into cat cookies to eat, it was too scary.”

“How could she not be hostile towards you… you’re playing the role of someone she’s hostile to, it’s already good enough she didn’t hit you directly, so you just randomly packed up everything on the table and ran away? How greedy are you, wait… the collar wasn’t even on the table?”

“I also packed stuff from the sofa, she had some chocolate in her handbag, I know human etiquette, I didn’t take those, but snacks already so far from the bag surely can be taken, she won’t eat them anyway!”

“You could see the chocolate… was her bag open?”

“Yeah.”

“……”

That basically solved the case.

It must have been that Xia Mujin’s bag was open, and the collar rolled out from inside, then got packed away by Yuebing.

There were quite a few things worth criticizing about this situation.

But the most important question was…

Little sister, it’s one thing to sleep while hugging this collar at night, but you’re even carrying it around with you? Weren’t you here to apologize to me, what are you planning to do with this thing?!

Thinking of this, Lin Yueye instead gave a thumbs up to Yuebing whom she was scolding just moments ago.

“Yuebing, well done.”

“Well done again? So this thing is actually edible?”

“It’s not edible, but you confiscating this is good news for me, listen, from now on we’ll seal it in the cabinet, and nobody touches it.”

“Oh, keeping it all to yourself to eat huh.”

“Get lost.”

Who knows who’s the one hoarding food to eat alone.

Opening the cabinet, it was full of salt bags that Yuebing had secretly stashed.

Putting the collar inside, Lin Yueye pushed all these bags to the corner, grumbling under her breath.

“Next time you pour salt in my cup… I’ll put this thing on you.”

“Ah?”

After closing the cabinet door, Lin Yueye secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

About this collar… let’s wait for Xia Mujin to come ask for it herself, if she doesn’t ask for it, then don’t give it back, just pretend we never found it.

After all, this isn’t something good, if Lin Yueye still had her memories as “Xia Muqing”, she definitely wouldn’t want her sister to come in contact with this kind of thing, it’s not good for mental and physical health!

Poor little Yueye, she hasn’t realized that the thing that affects Xia Mujin’s mental and physical health the most is herself.

The collar doesn’t matter at all.

Lin Yueye sat in the chair, thinking and hoping, just wanting to recover her memories soon.

She would often wake up startled from dreams of flower fields and her smile. Sometimes she would inexplicably cry at the sight of birds chirping in the blue sky and white clouds.

Lin Yueye really yearned to remember the life before that kidnapping, after all, that was also her life.

But before that… in order to help Mujin hold on as well, they can only continue with the “acting” plan.

“Yuebing, you remember the drama for later, right?”

“Of course I remember~ No problem, I really get into character when I act, right, Sister Yueye~”

“Ugh, you’re giving me goosebumps, don’t call me that when she’s not around.”

“Hmph, no sense of fun, what a boring woman.”

I know you’ve been watching videos on your phone lately, but please learn some better phrases!

—— Ding ling ling…!

Hmm?

The WeChat notification sound rang, Lin Yueye reached under Yuebing’s belly to retrieve the phone that was being pressed down.

Isn’t it already 10:30 PM now?

Opening the chat interface, besides Xia Mujin constantly asking about “Lin Lebing” situation over the past few hours, and trying to persuade Lin Yueye to let her move out, the latest message was from Teacher Luo.

【She might extend you an invitation soon, or she might not, we’ll see how it goes, if she tells you she’s inviting you somewhere, let me know.】

Invitation…? Where to?

After replying “okay”, Lin Yueye didn’t ask further.

She now pretty much understood Teacher Luo’s style of handling things, she believes in energy conservation, she’ll explain clearly if necessary, usually won’t say unnecessary things, and there’s no need to ask about things she doesn’t mention.

But looking at this simple message, there was still one thing quite remarkable.

“… Never thought that the Xia family’s maid would actually stand with us, to play the role against the Xia family’s young lady huh?”

……………………………….

Meanwhile, at the other end of Qihai city.

Completely different from Lin Yueye’s old small house, when the Xia family mansion lit up at night, it was truly a “scenic spot level view.”

If people from outside the city passed by, they would definitely think this was some castle building with a light show, who would think this was just a regular residence.

And in such a prosperous residential area, Luo Yahan had been forced to work overtime for a long time today.

As a maid, she should have been able to leave at sunset, but today the young lady of the house must have taken the wrong medicine, wearing a light blue nightgown, hugging a big teddy bear while sitting on the sofa, pouting her face, grabbing the teddy bear’s paw and chattering endlessly at Luo Yahan.

It’s now 10:30 PM.

This is probably… her fourth hour of having a fit?

“Yahan! You, you, you… why are you doing this! I know you’re kind-hearted and can’t bear to see people suffering, but you could arrange for Lin Lebing to go to other schools… there isn’t just one good high school in Qihai city!”

“Okay, okay, okay, are you done? Can you go take a bath and sleep now? I want to get off work.”

“I’m saying…! Haven’t I been saying all this time! But Yahan you’re not answering at all!”

“Well then.”

Luo Yahan sat on the sofa next to her and raised her finger, giving Xia Mujin some “advice.”

“Then tomorrow we’ll just do one thing, find some reason to announce that Lin Lebing doesn’t meet the special recruitment rules, don’t process the rest of her paperwork, expel her, let her go wherever she wants, then find some reason to kick her out of Lin Yueye’s apartment, send her back to the orphanage, would that make you happy?”

“Uwaa… Yahan, you’re so cold-blooded.”

“I think you should check if your brain circuits are working normally.”
