Rebirth of the Last Days: Double Pets - Chapter 72
“Wuwu… Please, please save me…” The ghostly figure raised her face, tears streaming down her cheeks, her eyes swollen and red like walnuts. She looked so miserable, resembling someone who had just been assaulted. This person was none other than Su Qianying, whom they had seen over and over again.
As soon as she lifted her face, Tang Ruo was taken aback upon seeing her.
If she had to summarize her feelings at that moment with a popular internet phrase, it would be: utterly stunned.
“Please save me! I was just… I was just…”
Before she could finish her sentence, a long leg kicked her away without mercy.
Bai Qi seemed to think her hands were too dirty to look at. He frowned tightly and glanced at the corner of his clothing, as if he wanted to disinfect it right then and there.
Su Qianying was kicked to the ground without any compassion, appearing greatly frightened. She shrank her shoulders and cried, “I was just forced by them… Please save me… Please let me explain…”
Tang Ruo couldn’t help but curl her lips.
Alright, she admitted that her man was charming and graceful.
But why did this girl keep coming back to tug at Bai Qi’s sleeve after being seen in such situations again and again? Where did she find the courage to approach him?
Who gave her that confidence?
Did Bai Qi have “I welcome all comers, I don’t choose my food” written all over his face?
Did she have “I’m a fool, feel free to steal my boyfriend” written on hers?
Su Qianying looked pitiful, her voice soft and particularly capable of evoking sympathy from others.
She lowered her gaze, tears streaming down her cheeks: “My mother… my mother is missing. They promised to help me find her… I…I didn’t agree to what they did to me… but I didn’t have the ability to refuse…”
Tang Ruo tilted her head back, leaning closer to Bai Qi.
Bai Qi asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Headache.”
Let her be a little melodramatic.
Experiencing such a dramatic scene firsthand was indeed quite a headache.
Those nurses were not lying to her.
It really is true that once you cross over, you encounter all sorts of peculiar characters everywhere in this world.
It turns out that people think in such different ways!
She hadn’t learned a single technique from the “Face-Slapping Manual” the nurses talked about; she wouldn’t be able to engage in those sharp-tongued, cutting verbal battles.
However, she remembered what the nurses said about the highest level of face-slapping.
To be unattainable!
To directly showcase one’s strength, making the other party clearly understand the vast gap in power, so that they aren’t even qualified to feel jealous—now that’s the supreme level.
As soon as Tang Ruo finished speaking, Bai Qi picked her up in a horizontal embrace: “This building is filled with foul air; we won’t come here again.”
With his tall stature and long legs, he walked slowly down the stairs while carrying her.
“Please help me! I don’t want to live that kind of life anymore…” Su Qianying also stood up, trying to follow them downstairs. But as she stepped down the stairs, she realized… the staircase didn’t lead any further down.
Her center of gravity shifted, but the ground was flat; naturally, she ended up sliding down the stairs.
Looking up at the two people in front of her, she saw the girl in the man’s arms wrapping her arms around his neck, resting her head on his shoulder, directly facing her with pursed lips.
Su Qianying’s expression darkened, her nails almost piercing her palm.
Now that she saw Tang Ruo’s demeanor, it felt like a mockery to her.
A mockery tinged with pity!
As if to say that she carried a disgusting stench about her, constantly oozing out.
How could she be mocked by such a woman!
She stood up again, preparing to reach out and grab Bai Qi’s clothing.
Suddenly, a splash of water hit her face.
The water streamed down her face and into her collar, chilling her entire body.
She looked up and glared in anger.
Above her, Tang Ruo glanced at her outstretched hand, then looked down, locking eyes with Su Qianying: “Sorry, I slipped.”
This was intolerable; it was absolutely unacceptable!
Su Qianying quietly lowered her gaze, suppressing the resentment in her eyes.
She would make sure that this girl would experience what she was going through today!
Bai Qi watched Tang Ruo in his arms, displaying a subtle expression, almost unable to suppress a chuckle.
He had witnessed her using her psychic power to make Su Qianying roll down the stairs earlier, and then pouring water on Su Qianying afterward…
He took it all in.
Although knocking over the vinegar jar seemed meaningless, the sour scent wafting from the situation felt rather nice.
Lowering his head, he directly kissed her lips, saying, “I’m very happy.”
Tang Ruo blinked and pouted at him.
What a man who naturally attracted bad luck wherever he went!
Bai Qi’s kiss toward Tang Ruo made Su Qianying stop in her tracks. She watched the man she admired carry another woman as they strolled down the cloud-like staircase, her face turning ashen.
Give up?
How could she!
After leaving Building 2, the two of them ran into Pan Xiaoxuan on the street.
Seeing Tang Ruo being carried by Bai Qi, Pan Xiaoxuan approached them: “What happened?”
Tang Ruo felt a bit shy; she had only intended to show off her affection to that girl, but now being the center of attention on the street made her feel embarrassed. She asked Bai Qi to put her down.
Once he did, Tang Ruo said, “I felt a little unwell earlier.” Then, noticing Pan Xiaoxuan’s appearance, she asked, “Are you out shopping?”
“Yeah, I’m helping my dad buy some seeds. I knew someone who was selling them, so I came to buy all his stock today.”
While Pan Xiaoxuan was talking to Tang Ruo, she spotted Su Qianying running down the hallway not far behind them.
At this moment, Su Qianying had already tidied herself up and was ready to fight again.
When she saw Pan Xiaoxuan, she seemed very happy and quickened her pace toward her.
Pursing her lips, Pan Xiaoxuan expressed some disdain: “What a twisted fate!”
Before Tang Ruo could comprehend the situation, she heard Su Qianying’s gentle and weak voice: “Xiaoxuan, it’s so nice to see you here.”
Indeed, it was a twisted fate!
Tang Ruo silently agreed with Pan Xiaoxuan’s words and leaned closer to Bai Qi.
“Xiaoxuan, are they your friends? We’re all friends here, so why don’t you introduce us?” Su Qianying adjusted her hair and skirt as she looked at Bai Qi.
Bai Qi didn’t stop walking and led Tang Ruo toward the villa area.
In broad daylight, he didn’t actually mind giving Su Qianying another kick.
However, seeing the way Pan Xiaoxuan interacted with her, he decided to show some consideration for Pan Dawei.
At that moment, Pan Dawei, who was busy educating two followers, sneezed.
How strange, even though the sun was shining brightly, it felt oddly chilly.
He looked around.
Indeed, the weather had turned colder.
Meanwhile, Pan Xiaoxuan turned her gaze back to Su Qianying, following her line of sight to Bai Qi. After taking in her outfit once more, she instantly understood what Su Qianying was up to.
Having lived with Su Qianying for more than a month, she was already quite familiar with some of her little antics.
It turned out that Su Qianying had taken a liking to Bai Qi!
Upon realizing this, Pan Xiaoxuan instantly got goosebumps and nearly vomited up the leftover food from yesterday.
What a huge pile of drama!
In the past, they had both liked the same man at school.
Now, they were both interested in the same man at the base!
“Xiaoxuan, you all chat; we’ll head off first,” Tang Ruo said to Bai Qi, her feet moving quickly as if they had encountered a plague, and in an instant, they were gone.
Pan Xiaoxuan: “…”
She felt an overwhelming wave of sadness wash over her.
I really don’t want to talk to her at all!
Seeing Tang Ruo drag Bai Qi away at a swift pace, Su Qianying also wanted to grab Pan Xiaoxuan to catch up.
However, Pan Xiaoxuan stepped aside a few steps, leaving Su Qianying empty-handed.
“I’m heading back too. Goodbye.” Pan Xiaoxuan didn’t stop and directly made her way toward the villa area.
But how could Su Qianying miss this opportunity to find out who Bai Qi was? She immediately clung to Pan Xiaoxuan.
As someone with strength abilities, Pan Xiaoxuan couldn’t break free from Su Qianying, who had space abilities.
