Chapter 6: 1.1.6: Painstakingly Losing All Her Points - EDITED
<<Your progress has started all over.>> Xiao Taotao's voice ringing in her head was the very first thing Xiao Yunhua heard the next day.
She paled and quickly asked to be summoned in the dimensional space. "Why?" She immediately asked when she saw the little fairy.
Xiao Taotao shook her head and said, "I can't tell you. You can use one hundred Pretty Points to find out." Xiao Yunhua sighed as she didn't know if she should or not. It was very hard for her to earn points so giving away nearly half of her points was going to be hard to gain back.
"Do I really have to?" Xiao Yunhua muttered in annoyance. How did her progress start over if she had been so careful? Zhou Feng was definitely interested in her, that much she was sure about.
"Yeah! Sorry, but rules are rules!" Xiao Taotao's adorable expression was apologetic yet dutiful.
For the first time since her transmigration into the body of this Han Yunhua, she was lost. She didn't know what to do.
Finally, after a few seconds of somewhat careful consideration, Xiao Yunhua unwilling mumbled, "I'll give away points. Let me see what happened."
Xiao Taotao nodded as snapped her fingers. Xiao Yunhua could feel Points being drained away and she shuddered. Getting points taken away for something other than skills was so different.
"Yes, for skills, it's mandatory. But since your using your points for an explanation, it's a little different." Xiao Taotao explained meticulously after hearing her thoughts.
Xiao Yunhua awkwardly smiled when she remembered that the little fairy could hear her thoughts. She'd best be careful about what she thought, due to the violation of privacy.
"I can't help it though!" The little fairy muttered as she snapped her fingers again. Suddenly, a large, swirling violet appeared before both fairy and human.
The swirling violet was vibrant and rapidly swirling nonstop. Xiao Taotao whispered incoherent words and the swirl began to turn into a dull color.
Not only in color, but the swirl began to lose speed and slowly lost its former rapidness and vibrancy. Instead, a dully lavender circular screen appeared and memories began to play.
It was shown from a third perspective and portrayed the moment when Xiao Yunhua appeared in Zhao Meiliang's house. But it also showed Zhao Meiliang's hypocritical smiles and her eyes full of malice.
Xiao Yunhua gaped in surprise as she saw that the person she considered as a friend was behaving in such a way. They had grown up together, yet who was this monster that she considered as a friend? She covered her mouth to prevent her gasp from being audible when she saw Zhao Meiliang tamper with her phone and text messages.
Seeing the message that the teenager girl sent to Zhou Feng, Xiao Yunhua paled and felt her knees buckle. No wonder her progress was over! Such a vulgar side was shown to Zhou Feng, why would he still be interested?
Xiao Yunhua felt all hope leave her. Her soul was going to perish on her first mission!
"Is there anyway of restarting? Please." Xiao Yunhua didn't care that she sounded desperate; her only goal was to save herself from ultimate demise.
Xiao Taotao shook her head. "Restarting a mission costs one hundred thousand points." Hearing the enormous number, Xiao Yunhua felt even more helpless, hopeless and doomed.
"What can I do? Please tell me." Tears started streaming down her face because she didn't want her soul to be extinguished. Suicide, she could do, for she still had a chance of reincarnation. But permanently disappearing? Xiao Yunhua didn't want to even think of the possibility.
Xiao Taotao sighed and her eyes suddenly glazed. Even though Xiao Yunhua could not see, Xiao Taotao was speaking with the Creator.
Xiao Taotao mental conversation with the Creator lasted approximately five or so minutes before her glazed eyes returned to normal. In these five minutes, Xiao Yunhua nearly started having a mental breakdown. This was her first ever mission, yet why was she so foolish to trust in people?
"Host," Xiao Taotao's voice snapped her attention back away from her thoughts and back into the dimensional space, "the Creator is willing to show you a way."
"What? So there's a way of salvation without restarting?" Xiao Yunhua was amazed. She had raked her brain to find a solution yet couldn't find any. To think a five minute conversation could get her a way out; this so-called Creator was amazing.
Xiao Taotao nodded. "But it'll cost you another fifty points!"
Xiao Yunhua wanted to cough up blood. Shameless! They offered to help, but their help was going to cost her another fifty points! She would only have approximately fifty points left afterwards! She spent eight years to earn such an amount, why was she forced to spend them so soon! It would take her so long to earn them again.
But in the end, she really had no choice. She nodded and felt the familiar, cold chill fleeting through her body.
Xiao Taotao snapped her fingers and the same swirl began to rapidly spin and became vibrant in color; completely the opposite of its earlier behavior. The swirl began to show her and Zhou Lang smiling happily together and behaving like a couple. Xiao Yunhua was obfuscated as she watched her seducing someone that wasn't her target. But as she continued to watch, she saw that Zhou Lang would introduce her as his girlfriend to his family, and that was where Zhou Feng would remember her once again.
Xiao Yunhua wanted to continue watching what seemed to be a future prediction, but Xiao Taotao snapped her fingers and the scene disappeared. Xiao Yunhua was disappointed, but she knew that the little fairy had shown her as much as needed to amend her mistake.
"Is it clear on what you need to do?" Xiao Taotao asked. When the little fairy saw Xiao Yunhua nodding, she smiled, pleased, and said, "I wish you luck!"
Before the little fairy could send her away, Xiao Yunhua shouted, "Wait!"
The little fairy was surprised and paused. She listened to Xiao Yunhua explain her final request.
"Can you make me a false voice recording of the timeline of last night. I want it to be Zhao Meiliang bragging about what she did to another friend, and for that anonymous friend to send the voice recording to me." Such a request, Xiao Yunhua hoped it was not impossible. But looking at her scrunched eyes of Xiao Taotao, she had a feeling it was.
But wasn't this the almighty Ultimate Goddess System? Such a trivial task, surely it wouldn't be hard for it to achieve and complete?
Xiao Taotao's eyes glazed again and Xiao Yunhua was left to wait for a few minutes before the little fairy regained her senses again. She apologetically said, "I can do your request, but it'll cost you your remaining points!"
Holy mother! Xiao Yunhua felt all energy leave her and she felt slightly faint. Who knew in a short span of about an hour, she would be losing all her points? She wanted to curl up into a ball and cry at the injustice of wasting eight years, but she decided to be mature about it.
She nodded as she felt that familiar chill sweep across her body one last time. The little fairy nodded and said, "When you open your phone, it should be in your text messages. I will also save it to a USB flash drive and keep it here in the dimensional space in case you change your phone or something happens to your phone in the future."
"Little fairy, you're so thoughtful!" Xiao Yunhua praised with a joyful smile, her earlier sorrow of getting her points taken away almost completely gone.
"Anything else?"
Xiao Yunhua shook her head and with that, the little fairy snapped her fingers and she found herself slowly waking up in the bed of Zhao Meiliang. Recalling what the vicious girl did and how she really felt about her, Xiao Yunhua couldn't help but feel disgusted.
Such a horrible person, it was best to cut all contact immediately!
She stood up and saw that Zhao Meiliang had already woken up like her. When Zhao Meiliang saw her, she smiled and enthusiastically said, "Good morning!" But Xiao Yunhua saw that her eyes narrowed.
Really, she had been a fool not to notice it all this time that this person was so wicked and hated her this much! She had been letting Zhao Meiliang know everything about her, mostly everything, and in exchange, she would get her hypocritical and false sympathy. Xiao Yunhua felt ashamed for believing that she could finally have a friend.
It seemed like no matter if she was the old her or the new her, she was destined to be alone. Friendship was something that she was cursed to never have, unfortunately. Xiao Yunhua didn't know if it was bad accumulated karma, but this was her fate. And she would stop hoping that it would change...
Xiao Yunhua ignored her greeting and picked up her phone. Seeing the text from an anonymous number with the voice recording of what Zhao Meiliang did, she smiled momentarily before gripping her phone with silent anger. Zhao Meiliang noticed that something was off and she saw that the dumb girl that regarded her as a friend didn't have the optimistic attitude that she usually did.
"Zhao Meiliang," Xiao Yunhua said coldly, stunning Zhao Meiliang, "from this moment on, you and I are no longer friends."
Before Xiao Yunhua could leave, her so-called friend anxiously called out, "Wait!" With her unshed tears, Zhao Meiliang was in full-actress mode. "Why? Yunhua, your my best friend!"
"Liar!" Xiao Yunhua felt her eyes fill with even more tears than Zhao Meiliang. If she was going to act fake, then Xiao Yunhua would show her how a professional acts even more fake than her.
How did Xiao Yunhua know about such excelled acting? It was all thanks to her lovely stepsister, Xiao Huaxiu. If there was one thing that Xiao Yunhua was grateful for, it was the fact that her stepsister was fake to the utmost extreme. And seeing such fake-ness, who wouldn't learn from it? Especially living with it for so long.
Seeing Xiao Yunhua's pained expression, Zhao Meiliang was stunned and momentarily stopped her act.
Seeing her behave like this, Xiao Yunhua released more tears and pointed with an accusing finger. "You did such an awful thing, you disgust me Zhao Meiliang!"
"What did I do?" Zhao Meiliang paled at the thought of Xiao Yunhua having found out about what she did last night. There was no way; she was hiding underneath her blanket!
"Shameless! You don't even admit your sins! You are truly a..." Xiao Yunhua hesitated before blurting out, "a bitch!" Using such vocabulary was a big no-no for her, especially with her angelic reputation. This was just to prove that she was angry, mostly anger because thanks to this white lotus, she lost all her damn points!
Zhao Meiliang was shocked still when she heard the angelic student using such a word. Before she could retort, Xiao Yunhua slammed her door closed and left a pondering Zhao Meiliang to realize what she did wrong.
Mrs. Zhao saw that Xiao Yunhua was leaving, so she quickly asked, "Yunhua, dear, why don't you stay a bit longer?"
"No way! From this moment on, your daughter and I have nothing to do with each other!" Xiao Yunhua huffed and left, not bothering with the Zhao family any longer.
She wanted revenge, but she also didn't want to stray from her main purpose. Getting back at a high school girl just wasn't her style, no matter how angry she was because of those precious two hundred points. Therefore, she could only use such a method to get rid of her.
Now that Xiao Yunhua thought about it, Zhao Meiliang must've sensed that she would become quite popular when she befriended her. Thus, unfriending her would definitely do more damage than revenge, especially for such a vain girl that loved being popular.
As the somewhat official most popular girl in school, unfriending Zhao Meiliang would definitely cause her so-called popularity to suffer.
Even though it was dumb, but Xiao Yunhua knew it was because of how high school was. If it was anywhere else, such ideology would have been considered ridiculous.
But high school had a category all by itself.
For now, she was too focused on where to find Zhou Lang and quickly become his girlfriend!
