Chapter 151: I Agree

Even the women following her chimed in, “You, You Yuelan! Sister Song discussing this with you is giving you face, and you dare to think about brushing it off? I think your gall is a bit too big. Hurry up and give us an honest explanation, or we’ll have to teach you a lesson!”

“That’s right, that’s right! Who do you think you are? These things aren’t for you to grasp. After you honestly tell us, you’d better tuck your tail and leave on your own. Lin Huanhuan’s resources are for us to enjoy together, or you’ll be sorry!”

Song Qingqing watched with smug satisfaction. But as time ticked by, and You Yuelan remained expressionless, even seeming like she wanted to just turn and leave, she finally couldn’t hold back, her face darkening as she said, “Sister You Yuelan, I advise you to speak honestly. Otherwise, we won’t let you leave just like that!”

This was an overt threat. You Yuelan couldn’t help but sigh softly, “Forget it.”

…

Half a minute later, You Yuelan left the spot with a calm expression.

On the ground, Song Qingqing and the other women were scattered in all directions, groaning incessantly.

Song Qingqing watched her departing back, her face full of venom as she said, “Damn it! Not only did you refuse to give me face, but you also dared to lay hands on me. I definitely won’t let you off!”

“Just you wait!”

Halfway there, You Yuelan’s footsteps halted, and she stopped.

She turned her head towards a young woman who had appeared at her side at some point. She remembered this girl; her name was Dong Yun’er. Yesterday, Lin Huanhuan had gone back with Dong Yun’er. Even her slow-moving brain remembered this fact clearly.

Yesterday, it was just a fleeting glance, with most of her attention on Lin Huanhuan, so she hadn’t paid much notice to Dong Yun’er. But today, taking a closer look, her eyes immediately flashed with surprise.

Her face was like a blooming peach blossom, her brows like delicate smoke. At first glance, she seemed like a noble lady who had stepped out of a painting.

‘She’s really beautiful… but what does she want with me? She probably isn’t here to strike up a conversation, right?’

At the same time, Dong Yun’er standing opposite her had a similar impression. Yesterday, she had been a bit far away and hadn’t seen clearly. Today, up close and with a careful look, she immediately sensed the charm emanating from You Yuelan.

Her body was as light as willow catkins. Dressed in a violet long gown, it set off her skin, making it appear crystal clear. There was also a faint sense of weariness about her, which could even earn special points with certain types of people.

Dong Yun’er couldn’t help but grit her teeth inwardly, ‘Damn it! The young lady’s taste really is as high as ever. She picked her out at a glance. If I’m not mistaken, among this batch of new disciples, she’s probably the best-looking, right?’

‘What a playgirl!’

Dong Yun’er mercilessly criticized in her heart, then secretly resolved, ‘It seems I must make this You Yuelan leave. I was still holding onto the fantasy that maybe one day the young lady would lose interest in her and just choose to leave.’

‘But looking at this level of beauty now, how could she possibly leave? She’s probably already listed You Yuelan as a harem candidate!’

‘Originally, I planned to wait until You Yuelan was beaten down by that group, then I’d step out to save her, using that favor to threaten You Yuelan into actively leaving the young lady. I didn’t expect her to have some skill. Forget it, it’s the same now.’

Dong Yun’er had naturally arrived early. She had been tailing You Yuelan since her class ended, witnessing the scene where she was cornered by Song Qingqing and the others. She had wanted to wait for a good opportunity to appear, but none came.

Now, seeing that You Yuelan was almost back at her residence, Dong Yun’er finally couldn’t hold back and chose to reveal herself.

And so, they stared at each other.

A few seconds later, You Yuelan, eager to get back to sleep, was the first to lose patience. She asked faintly, “May I ask what you need from me? Could you speak quickly? I’m in a hurry to get back.”

Dong Yun’er glanced up at her, slightly surprised, and said with a smile, “Let’s talk somewhere else. There are a bit too many people here; it’s not very convenient.”

Although the two of them were standing at the edge of the path, there were quite a few Lingyun Sect disciples coming and going. In just that short time, no fewer than ten Lingyun Sect disciples had cast strange glances their way.

If she threatened her here, Dong Yun’er strongly suspected that within a day, news of an inner sect disciple of the Lingyun Sect bullying and threatening an outer sect disciple would spread throughout the entire sect, and her reputation would be completely ruined.

There was no helping it; there were too many busybodies. Dong Yun’er, having done this sort of thing many times before, knew this well from experience.

You Yuelan gave a somewhat speechless pout. ‘Another ‘let’s find a place to talk properly.’ Why so much trouble? Just like before, can’t you just say it directly?’

This expression was naturally taken in by Dong Yun’er, who snorted inwardly, her impression of You Yuelan dropping another notch. ‘Getting impatient now? I, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, have come to discuss matters with you, a mere Qi Condensation ant, and you dare to be impatient? It seems you really haven’t received enough beatings.’

Walking to a secluded area, You Yuelan randomly let her thoughts drift to the situation earlier with Song Qingqing looking for trouble. Dong Yun’er followed closely behind. Without thinking, You Yuelan asked, “Was that Song Qingqing earlier sent by you? Are you here to threaten me too?”

Dong Yun’er, who had been organizing her words, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and immediately laughed coldly, “So what if I am? What are you planning to do about it?”

Dong Yun’er, who was practically inseparable from Lin Huanhuan, naturally didn’t have a great personality either. She usually just needed to put on an act, hence her amiable appearance.

Now, having just met, she was being threatened without any explanation. The fact that she hadn’t directly attacked was only because she didn’t want to bully someone weaker. Explain kindly? Dream on.

“So that’s how it is.” You Yuelan nodded thoughtfully, then said in a calm voice, “Then, could you not trouble me anymore in the future? I don’t like being bothered by others, and I don’t like being bullied.”

“Huh?”

Hearing this, Dong Yun’er, who had been waiting for You Yuelan to utter threats, couldn’t help but be taken aback, her almond-shaped eyes widening in an instant.

‘Wait, when ordinary people are cornered and troubled, shouldn’t they react with angry threats afterwards? Even if they’re timid, they should beg for mercy, right? What’s with this calm, negotiating attitude?’

‘This… does she really think bad people are something to reason with? Isn’t she afraid of being laughed at on the spot for having a screw loose?’

Dong Yun’er was utterly speechless. Meeting You Yuelan’s calm gaze, she nodded in agreement. ‘Good thing I’m not a bad person.’

“Thank you.”

“By the way, may I ask what you needed from me? Can you say it now?”

You Yuelan asked. Dong Yun’er thought for only a second before directly stating her demand, “It’s simple. You should know my relationship with Lin Huanhuan. I’m asking you not to actively appear near Lin Huanhuan anymore in the future. Don’t actively approach her again.”

‘Not allowed to actively approach Lin Huanhuan? Not allowed to actively appear near her anymore? Even though we’ve only just met…’

A few ripples stirred in You Yuelan’s calm eyes. She quickly replied, “Okay, no problem.”
