Things are always easier said than done, I thought as I stood outside Zhong Yilan's hall, gripping the box of pastries hard with my clammy hands. I couldn't wait till the tournament anymore, but I needed an audience to expose her doings and give her the justice she deserved. I had to make a scene.
And making a scene was the last thing I thought I was capable of doing.
I glanced at the occasional groups of disciples passing by and took a deep breath. I could handle this, I told myself. All I needed to do was to attract some attention. I mustered my courage and shouted at the top of my lungs, "Zhong Yilan! Do you dare take a bite out of these pastries you made for Senior Xie?"
A couple of people stopped in their tracks, studying me curiously. The door remained closed.
"Or should I show everyone the poison you added inside?" I shouted louder.
I’m sorry for killing those goldfishes T_T But I couldn’t find a better alternative that works as a good proof here… I hope they’ll rest in peace and not seek revenge on me.
The next batch of recurring characters is coming up! Wen Shiyin is one of them, and the Gatekeeper, Chu Yang (who appeared in chapter 13/14), will make his re-entrance soon. Will they be friends or foes?
