I have to say, this time I really got angry at Zhuang Ni.
In order to suppress the heart disease, I spent nearly two weeks to calm my mind, but I still wasn’t able to develop enough self-restraint.
Even if I knew that the so-called “curse” was not likely to have a real impact on other people’s lives, at best, it would make people feel uncomfortable and unlucky if something went wrong.
But you shouldn’t call my unborn relative “something”.
I always felt that in a sense, the only reason me and Xiao Qin was able to safely make it out of the crisis-ridden mountains, was because we were sheltered by our relative.
In connection with the dream my father had, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that they sacrificed themselves for me and Xiao Qin, for a brother and sister whom they have never met.
It was an affectionate and touching way to phrase it, so that people would be comforted, but once it passed through Zhuang Ni, it became like my brother / sister was an evil object used to block disasters.
It’s intolerable. Although in the suicide note, I told my dad to call him/her Ye Lin, but there was no guarantee that he/she would be a boy!
So there is a 50-50 chance that he/she would have been my sister! She would be my third sister in addition to Ai Mi and Xiao Qin.
Zhuang Ni, it looks like you have a lot of guts to compare my dead sister to witchcraft props right in front of a siscon.
I was so angry that I went straight to Zhuang Ni who was fiddling with underwear and shouted: “What did you just say, take back what you said.”
Although Zhuang Ni mostly noticed that my eyes were red and my tone was not good, she relied on the fact that this was the class leader’s house and thought I would not dare to do anything to her.
She closed the underwear drawer and slowly got up. She was second only to the class leader and Winnie in height among the girls of class 2-3, so she was not much shorter than me when she straightened her back.
She slightly tilted up her face to look at me with disdain, as if my stern voice was purely a bluff.
“What, Ye Lin, do you have the guts to hit me? Don’t think because you are lucky and have something to help you block a calamity…”
“Damn right I’m going to hit you.”
Before I finished speaking, I wasn’t able to keep calm and slapped Zhuang Ni across her face.
Zhuang Ni wasn’t prepared and her body wasn’t that strong. Because of the slap, her hair in front of her forehead was in disarray and her skirt shifted because of her body’s rotation as she was flung back. She wasn’t able to stand still and fell back onto the class leader’s single bed.
Although I was subconsciously suppressing my power because of my heart disease, I probably used sixty or seventy percent of my strength and it caused Zhuang Ni’s right cheek to swell up immediately.
Other than the place I hit, Zhuang Ni’s face became even paler. She slid her long fingers over the gradually swollen right side of her face, lying on her back in a bit of disbelief, staring straight at the ceiling.
I didn’t get over my anger and my breathing was heavy.
“Hehe… ahahahaha…”
Zhuang Ni instead began to laugh. The hand covering her right cheek was also casually thrown back on the bed, revealing her red and swollen skin below.
“So that’s how it is, so that’s how it is…”
As if she had encountered the world’s funniest thing, Zhuang Ni laughed until she was almost out of breath. Her body was also shaking as if she was having a spasm. Since she was lying on her back with the soles of her feet facing me, it was hard for me not to notice that she was tightly wrapped in black translucent stockings.
The television in the living room was playing a commercial, and as a general rule, the volume of the commercial was always louder than the program, so the noise I made with Zhuang Ni in the class leader’s bedroom was covered up without missing a beat.
After about 2 or 3 minutes, Zhuang Ni had laughed enough, and her face gradually turned cold. Instead of being annoyed that she had been slapped and touched by a man, she continued to lie on her back on the bed and said calmly:
“It turns out that Xiao Qin’s mother wasn’t hospitalized for so long because of the car accident.”
My heart trembled because I knew that Zhuang Ni had analyzed part of the truth from my overreaction, as well as from the information she had gathered earlier.
With her intelligence that was not inferior to that of the class leader, as well as her character of doing whatever it takes to achieve the goal, it was indeed very difficult to conceal anything from her unless it is something she was not interested in.
“So Xiao Qin’s mother and your father actually have that kind of relationship…”
Zhuang Ni was not seeking confirmation but saying it flat out and already assumed her analysis as an absolute fact.
“That silly girl, Xiao Qin, was actually kept in the dark about her mother from pregnancy to miscarriage, she actually did not know at all hahahaha, it’s too funny.”
“What’s so funny.” I angrily reprimanded, “Do you want me to hit your face again.”
After being slapped by my backhand, the left side of Zhuang Ni’s face had swollen to the point that it slightly affected her speech, but she didn’t care as if it was someone else who was injured, as if it wasn’t her own body.
“Hmph, so you’re angry because your sister died for you.”
“You… how can you be sure it was my sister.”
“I learned it in my dream world… I spent so much to curse you and failed, so at least they have to give me a reason why and they told me it was some woman who saved you.”
“A bunch of nonsense. If you’re really so proficient in witchcraft, why not use witchcraft to make the class leader like you.”
Instead of answering my question, Zhuang Ni muttered to herself, “Although I paid the price and wasn’t able to curse you to death, but I did a good thing, at least your sister did not have to come to this world to suffer.”
“What did you say?” The anger that had just been eased was again provoked by Zhuang Ni.
“Is there something wrong with what I said.” Zhuang Ni looked all fearless with empty eyes as if death had swept past.
“There is much more pain than pleasure in this world. If one is wise enough, they would not choose to be born into the world.”
“Also… hehe, with that appearance of yours, your sister won’t look any better and be ridiculed all her life by men who judge people by their appearance.”
“They will have an ugly face and a future of misfortune, so wasn’t it good for me to end her myself, it would also be a kind of mercy.”
“Hahahahahaha… hahahahaha… hahahahahaha…”
As I looked at Zhuang Ni, who was lying in bed and laughing madly, my anger was like a wild horse on the verge of breaking free of its reins.
“Shut up, if you say one more word, I’ll…”
“What are you doing to do?” Zhuang Ni stopped laughing, but the corners of her mouth were still tinged with a mocking smile, “You’ve already slapped me once, are you going to do it again.”
“And I’m sorry to tell you, it didn’t hurt at all. The damage I suffered is far less than the torture I inflict on my own flesh, a mere mortal like you can’t hurt me.”
I took a step forward, “I’m a mortal, so you’re a transcendent? I can overlook it if you mock me, but if you continue to say bad things about my sister…”
“What are you going to do?” Zhuang Ni did not budge at all, “I’m always ready to die, what can you do to me, kill me?”
“If killing you can bring my sister back from the dead, I’ll kill you right now.”
Faced with Zhuang Ni, who was convinced that her black witchcraft was effective, I gradually accepted that the unborn child was a girl, and began to blame Zhuang Ni for my sister’s death.
“Coward.” Zhuang Ni chuckled lightly and commented about me.
“Declaring your defeat before you act… why don’t you kill me first and then go and see if your own sister has been brought back to life?”
Because of my slap and being touched by a man, Zhuang Ni spared no effort to humiliate me.
“Cowards are cowards, you guys are the best at making excuses for your cowardice… In fact, you’re now scared to death inside, right. Let alone kill me, you don’t even know how to explain the swelling on my face to the class leader, right?”
“You’re only strong on the outside, but since you don’t have the courage, don’t stand here and pollute the air around me. Quietly back down and let me rest in the class leader’s bed for a while, maybe I might be nice and help you say some words in your favor later…”
“No, on second thought, that’s not going to work. I can’t forgive you for kissing the class leader in front of me. I must find a way to get the class leader to kick you out today. What should I say you did before slapping me?”
“Huh, why aren’t you saying anything? You call yourself the Metal-Blooded Lone Wolf, but in fact, you’re not even a dog in front of the class leader. Are you that afraid of being hated by your master?”
“How about this, as long as you kneel down and apologize, I might be able to let you off the hook. After all, I am a compassionate person, so compassionate that I could not bear to see your ugly sister come to the human world…”
My anger could no longer be controlled and it exploded like a volcano.
I’ve warned you, I’ve tolerated you, and now I can’t stand it anymore.
You’re not afraid of death, you think death is easy, right? You think you’ve done a “good deed” by not bringing my sister into this world.
Then I’ll also do a good deed. If you think death is sweet, then I’ll let you taste that sweetness today.
I lost my last trace of reason and pounced on top of Zhuang Ni like a wild animal. I used my two large vise like hands and firmly strangled her white and slender neck.
“Don’t you want to die, didn’t you say I was a coward and didn’t dare to do anything, then I’ll fufill your wish today.”
Zhuang Ni’s body tightened and it was too late for her to resist and she began to feel the pain of suffocation.
