Kapitel 29: 1.1.29: Chatting with Some Tea

When Xiao Yunhua got back, her face was ashen and her eyes blazing with anger. Despite whatever the system was making her feel for Zhou Feng, she still hated him.

Reminiscing through the original body's memories, she remembered how cold blooded he and Zhou Lang were when they saw the original being beaten up. Their indifference led the original to pass away!

Not only that, she remembered how Zhou Feng simply believed a dumb text over her without any investigation.

And after her conversation with the Zhou family, as well as Zhou Feng, she hated their family to the core! They were so shameless.

"Little girl?" Ni Ming noticed that Xiao Yunhua was extremely angry for some reason. "How did it go?"

"How did what go?"

"Meeting your boyfriend's family, you doofus!" Ni Ming joked, only to get a disappointed look from Xiao Yunhua.

"Awful. They're awful people. Honestly, I just need a cup of tea to calm my nerves." Xiao Yunhua sighed.

"Lucky for you, I just made some oolong tea!" Mrs. Bao's sweet voice resounded as she held a cup of tea for Xiao Yunhua to drink. Giving the elderly woman a grateful look, she slowly sipped the tea, finally finding some peace. She raised her head to see Ni Ming and Mrs. Bao looking at her with eyes full of expectation.

Xiao Yunhua furrowed her eyebrows in confusion until she realized their motive—they wanted to know what happened! "You gossiping old ladies!" She mumbled with amusement.

Mrs. Bao wasn't offended, but Ni Ming gasped in dramatized horror. She looked like she was going to faint.

"Old would not be a word to describe yours truly!" She cried, completely playful.

Xiao Yunhua only chuckled and shook her head at Ni Ming's playfulness.

"So anyways, what happened?" Ni Ming asked after she had calmed down. Despite her hesitance to keep what happened to herself, she talked anyways. And when she did, she poured out everything that happened to her while there. She didn't keep any detail and could only see the two women's eyes widen as she revealed every detail.

"Goodness..." Ni Ming sighed when Xiao Yunhua finished. "That's a lot to take in." Mrs. Bao nodded in agreement. Both women were clearly astonished that the infamously cold young master Zhou Feng would behave in such a way.

But Ni Ming suddenly smirked mischievously, "I'm not surprised though. Our Yunhua is clearly more beautiful than his bratty fiancée Kang Yiyi. Besides, I think it's just so romantic to see you both behave so secretive."

Xiao Yunhua choked and began to cough from her tea. She had almost sputtered the tea in her mouth from Ni Ming's words. "Ni Ming, what part of any of that was... romantic?"

Ni Ming shrugged her shoulders, her beautiful eyes glimmering with humor. "I mean, it's a prime example of the cliché possessive business man." Hearing her response, Xiao Yunhua rolled her eyes. Ni Ming was too busy being absorbed into silly little fantasies to see the bigger picture: reality wasn't just simply being in her position and falling in love at first sight. It was much crueler. Much harsher.

Personally, she, didn't believe in 'love at first sight' because it made her too superficial. She did believe in 'lust at first sight' which is exactly what her situation with Zhou Feng was—him simply being interested in her appearance. Unfortunately, the system always demanded for love, hence why this target was so tough.

"At least he doesn't hate you..." Ni Ming added sheepishly, not knowing how accurate her words were. Years ago, he despised her without any investigation. Now, albeit not hating her, he still harbored the wrong emotion for her.

"Yeah... But I'm not interest in him anyways. I am, after all, dating Zhou Lang. This whole scenario may have confused me for a bit, but I won't stray at all!"

Ni Ming rolled her eyes when she heard Xiao Yunhua's words of virtue. "Little girl, don't think we don't see it. The only relationship between you and Zhou Lang is the relationship two friends. Every single time that I see you both together, I just see two best friends. There is no chemistry, passion, nothing."

Xiao Yunhua glanced at Mrs. Bao, only to see her nodding with Ni Ming's words. Had it really been that obvious? She thought it was only her, but apparently, everyone else was too kind to tell her. Then again, they probably respected her decisions on who she was dating. But as they were giving her advice now, it meant that it was pretty clear that Xiao Yunhua didn't really exhibit the glow of being in 'love'.

"Love is too complicated of a word." Besides, it wasn't like she would ever fall in love. It was too much of a taboo, especially since she had multiple targets to worry about in every world. She was only a fleeting memory that they would surely forget... in fact, this identity of hers, eventually, she'd forget too.

"Goodness, let's forget about all this and get you ready for your performance tonight!" Ni Ming exclaimed when she saw the time. Xiao Yunhua stood up and bid Mrs. Bao goodbye, following Ni Ming to drive to Riverside.

When they arrived, Xiao Yunhua quickly got ready and walked out. Ni Ming hadn't gotten prepared because she hadn't done a performance in a month or so. It was all because she was planning her wedding with Wang Yaowan.

Ni Ming patted her back in encouragement as Xiao Yunhua took a deep breath. She walked forward with a smile as her usual fans shot smiles at her. Like usual, half of her face was covered and she extruded an aura of mystery. She opened her mouth and sang to her heart's content. While singing, her eyes wandered but paused in alarm when she saw someone that didn't ever come to her performances ever since that one time.

What was he doing here!?
