Reincarnated as a Poor Little Green Tea, Am I Destined to Be Bullied? - Volume 1 Chapter 87

Chapter 87: Where Is She?

***

Sacrificing Yuebing in exchange for the funeral proceeding smoothly without incident, really, Yuebing, I’m crying my heart out.

“But I’m not dead yet.”

“I know.”

Lin Yueye stood at the edge of the ravine, beside her stood Yuebing who had returned to human form, with a bump on her head.

Yueye gazed from afar at the hole being filled behind the tombstone, one edge of the coffin had been completely sealed, symbolizing that the once wind-swept and rain-tossed youth had finally found a resting place.

While the youth’s family members were burning paper offerings and paying respects, they gathered in small groups discussing memories and words of comfort.

Especially when stealing a moment to check the phone and seeing the message from 【Mengyu】, it was quite fitting to the occasion.

【Have you finished watching the anime I recommended? Wasn’t it really emotional? Ah, when you need to cry, you should let it out, you know? In my opinion, the most touching part was the separation between family members, but there are miracles of reunion after separation. Though, do you think such things happen in reality?】

【Probably not, reality is quite realistic, the dead cannot come back to life.】

【Where’s your sense of romance! But what if it does happen, and maybe when people die they continue living in other ways!】

This Mengyu really has quite an imagination…

Saving the “angry cat” emoticon she sent, if nothing else, the emoticons she sends are quite cute.

Putting away the phone for now, looking around.

Scene after scene, strangely lost in thought, with some melancholy, the silver-haired girl looked at Yuebing’s empty hands and couldn’t help but ask.

“Where’s the potted plant you brought?”

“Put it on your tomb, on the platform.”

It really was there.

Looking at the offering platform in front of the tombstone, filled with various offerings, that half-dead spider plant stood out particularly.

Perhaps others who saw it were holding back their criticism without daring to speak, they might also want to ask who placed it there, but asking would be too awkward, so they all maintained a tacit silence, no one saying anything.

But Lin Yueye was actually quite grateful.

After all, fallen wood symbolizes mourning, dead wood grows new buds.

“Yuebing… thank you, I know you’re poor, you’re also commemorating my past life in your own way… ah, by the way, what are you eating?”

“Rice crackers, want one?”

“Where did you get those…?”

“Took them from the platform over there, it was full, if I didn’t eat them, where would I put the potted plant?”

“……”

You little…

You ate my offerings again, didn’t you?!

Lin Yueye promptly snatched the rice crackers from her hand and ate them tearfully, her own offerings couldn’t all be given to the deities, she had to save some for herself!

Suddenly…

“Good work, Lin Yueye.”

“Cough… cough cough cough cough! Cough! Teacher… Teacher Luo?!”

“What’s wrong with you?”

Luo Yahan’s footsteps were naturally quiet, suddenly appearing behind Lin Yueye and speaking, little Yueye was already feeling guilty about eating the offerings, hadn’t even swallowed the rice cracker yet, hearing the voice naturally resulted in such violent coughing.

Yuebing was good at improvising.

Now whenever she saw Luo Yahan, she thought of acting, and thinking of acting reminded her of her dream of becoming a crosstalk performer.

Lin Lebing stood on tiptoes and patted Lin Yueye’s back with her strong little hands, her words covering up the situation were first-rate.

“Uwah…! Sister Yueye’s asthma must be acting up again! Don’t die, Sister Yueye!”

“I… I won’t die! Look at what you’re saying… cough.”

If I really died, it wouldn’t be from coughing, it would definitely be from your patting!

Luo Yahan happened to be holding a bottle of mineral water she had taken two sips from.

She thought for a moment before handing it to Lin Yueye, her tone actually carried some concern, but due to her expressionless face, it sounded like she was reading from a script.

“Want some water to help calm down? I heard you’re often sick, the air is quite good here, you still get asthma?”

“Maybe… maybe there’s too much dust in the air, it’s an old condition.” Lin Yueye went along with the act, deliberately coughing a couple more times, taking the bottle from Luo Yahan’s hand, “Thank you, Teacher Luo.”

“Aren’t you going to drink?”

“……”

I don’t have another cup either…!

I certainly wouldn’t mind drinking from a bottle you’ve used, but I’m afraid you’ll mind wuwu.

Luo Yahan seemed to see through something, raising her eyebrows somewhat disapprovingly, and actually said some words that weren’t easy to understand.

“Paying attention to hygiene isn’t wrong, but special times call for special measures, my health check-up shows I’m healthy, using this bottle won’t harm you unless your immune system is ridiculously low, unless of course you have some mental aversion to me, then I won’t…”

I’ll drink it, okay! Please stop lecturing!

Lin Yueye unscrewed the cap and tilted her head back to gulp down half the bottle, she didn’t want to listen to the teacher giving a lecture in this setting!

A satisfied “hah” sound, but that was just her own perception, little Yueye certainly couldn’t imagine that with her current body, even drinking water was especially slow, her imagined satisfying gulp sounded no more than a kitten’s exhale to Luo Yahan.

“That’s better.”

Luo Yahan nodded, speaking frankly: “I do have some common sense, leaving aside the pathological risks, psychologically, two people sharing a water bottle certainly raises some points of concern, but I think when having an asthma attack, you shouldn’t think too much about it.”

“Teacher Luo’s lesson is well taken…”

“Do you want more?”

“No more…”

“Then give it back to me, I’m still a bit thirsty.”

“?!”

You’re going for round two?!

You’re really too practical.

Luo Yahan took back the half-full mineral water bottle, after observing that Lin Yueye was not seriously ill…

—— She also slightly bowed her head, expressing gratitude.

“Lin Yueye, thanks to your quick reaction earlier, I’m thanking you on behalf of the Xia family, they’re busy now, but I’m sure once things settle down, they’ll thank you for this matter as well.”

“It was nothing, and… I couldn’t just watch the urn fall to the ground… I think anyone would try to help in that situation.”

“Thinking and doing are two different things, you can be proud of having such initiative, hmm…?”

Luo Yahan noticed that Lin Lebing, who had been missing for a while, was silent — but pointing at her own head bump.

“Lin Lebing, where did you go just now, uh… what happened to your head?”

“Got hit by conscience, feeling dizzy.”

“Huh?”

Lin Yueye quickly pressed her head, followed by a twitching smile: “Ahaha… Lebing means she got hit by a bamboo mat, we were tidying up bamboo mats this morning and it hit her, didn’t expect the bump to just swell up, don’t worry Teacher Luo, I’ll take her to get it treated in a bit.”

“Is that so… alright, what I mean is, Lin Lebing you’d better not run around here, when the funeral is over I’ll take you home, it would be troublesome if we can’t find you.”

“Got it.”

Bamboo mat is fine, as long as there’s conscience.

Lin Yueye looked around.

Couldn’t find the person.

It was because she couldn’t see her that worry gradually clouded the girl’s eyes.

“Teacher Luo, may I ask… how is Mujin doing now, where is she.”
