My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 835 - 467: Between Sisters (Double-Length, Part 2)
"Do you like Chang’an?" Zhu Pingniang clicked her tongue: "I do like him, that’s true, but how did you see that? You haven’t visited me for a long time."
Zhu Pingniang almost engraved her resentment into her tone.
Li Zhibai was silent for a moment, ignoring Zhu Pingniang’s resentful gaze, and said, "That’s your Glazed Body, and it just shattered like that, yet you can still laugh."
If it were someone else, Zhu Pingniang would probably have fought fiercely.
She spent unknown amounts of time, resources, and endured countless hardships to cultivate this Golden Glazed body.
That is a gigantic number that the "pauper" Xu Chang’an absolutely cannot imagine today, yet it vanished cleanly with the two words ’breaking the body.’
"If I don’t laugh, should I cry?" Zhu Pingniang blinked, smiling: "Ah Bai, you haven’t come to see me for so long, and I haven’t shed any tears. Just a mere Glazed Body, it’s gone, so be it."
Li Zhibai: "..."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhibai finally couldn’t maintain her composure anymore, she turned to look at the smiling Zhu Pingniang, and sighed.
This girl... has really changed beyond recognition.
Is this something Tong Jun would say?
Li Zhibai realized she might need some time to gradually adapt to this seductive sister of hers.
"Tong Jun, you’re refining your heart, it’s not convenient for me to come see you." Li Zhibai seriously explained: "The refining heart of Hehuan Sect’s Charm Technique most warns against past ties, how could you not understand."
Therefore, she hadn’t come to visit to prevent her presence from affecting Zhu Pingniang’s completion of her cultivation technique.
"Ah Bai."
"Hmm?"
"I’m a woman." Zhu Pingniang pointed to her face.
"I know." Li Zhibai laughed seeing Zhu Pingniang’s ’flirting’ posture.
Of course, she knew Tong Jun was a woman.
"In Flower Moon Building, I’ve learned one thing." Zhu Pingniang pursed her lips: "Women... are unreasonable."
"What kind of talk is that?" Li Zhibai frowned.
Li Zhibai, who was born into a prominent family, couldn’t stand hearing such disparaging remarks about women.
"Don’t rush, what I mean is." Zhu Pingniang blinked: "Even if I know you shouldn’t have come to see me... even if it’s right for you not to visit me, I’m still not happy."
She’s a woman, she just wants to be unreasonable.
"So, don’t reason with me." Zhu Pingniang yawned, her eyes narrowed into a slit: "Ah Bai... At times like this, what I want to hear is not you reasoning with me, but... comforting me, you get it."
"Like this?" Li Zhibai seemed thoughtful.
If a third person heard these two women’s conversation, they would feel extremely odd, because under normal circumstances, Zhu Pingniang shouldn’t be speaking to Zhibai like this.
But this was their way of communicating.
Zhu Pingniang suddenly understood why she naturally had a good feeling towards Yun Qian.
Because Yun Qian is like Li Zhibai, the type of person you can’t beat around the bush with.
With Yun Qian, she wouldn’t understand if you went around circles, Li Zhibai is exactly the same.
Zhu Pingniang knew that if she wanted Li Zhibai to comfort her, she could only speak directly, otherwise, just relying on hints... Li Zhibai would only ever reason with her.
In contrast, Xu Chang’an was much smarter and more considerate. With many things, she didn’t have to voice them. Just a slight hint, and Xu Chang’an understood everything.
Li Zhibai, while recording the battle data between ’Zhu Tong Jun’ and Wen Li, thought about Zhu Pingniang’s words.
Want her to comfort her?
This was the first time hearing such a request from Tong Jun.
But when Li Zhibai thought about how she praised Zhu Tong Jun, even if the other party kept a chilly face, would still tug at the corners of her lips and smile, then she knew... Tong Jun was still Tong Jun.
"I’m not good at comforting." Li Zhibai truthfully stated: "How about you look for your Ah Zi."
Though she prides herself as Tong Jun’s elder sister, the fact is... Zhu Pingniang does have an eldest sister — the current Sect Leader of Hehuan Sect, Gu Qiancheng’s Second Lady, she’s Zhu Pingniang’s eldest sister.
Li Zhibai wasn’t mocking Zhu Pingniang, but truly giving her advice.
She thought if Tong Jun now had regained her youthful personality, wanting to find a girl to act spoiled with, wanting someone to comfort her, the best candidate wasn’t herself, but that person from Hehuan Sect.
"Ah Bai, you’re teasing me." Hearing Li Zhibai’s words, Zhu Pingniang’s face turned entirely black.
To go find her sister...
Unless she really lost her dignity and wanted to be fiercely mocked by the woman who abandoned Hehuan Sect’s tradition... otherwise, she wouldn’t go see her.
"Tong Jun, you also..." Li Zhibai wanted to say something.
"Stop talking about these things." Zhu Pingniang interrupted Li Zhibai, her tone serious: "I and that woman who abandoned Ms. Gu’s tradition, abandoned Hehuan Sect, have nothing to discuss."
Li Zhibai: "..."
Her eyes flickered.
Zhu Pingniang could actually say such words openly.
In the past, despite having many displeasures about her sister, Zhu Tong Jun would only bury them in her heart.
In a certain sense... this could be considered a good thing.
Li Zhibai didn’t make a comment, she actually always felt that the changes in Hehuan Sect were correct. Although Charm Technique fundamentally is the great avenue of Yin and Yang rotation, cultivating it has too many restrictions. In the past, there was no choice, but now, since joining Chaoyun Sect and receiving the Sect Leader’s help, having a better path, more complete cultivation techniques...
Change is necessary.
Abandoning the cultivation of Charm Technique is a trend, doesn’t Tong Jun see that Hehuan Sect’s overall strength now is several times better than before?
Li Zhibai felt that Zhu Tong Jun should definitely see it, but as she just said... she’s a woman, still an unreasonable woman.
So, the matter being correct is one aspect, her dissatisfaction is another.
After all, Li Zhibai is a teacher from Sword Hall, she can thoroughly deduce from one instance to draw conclusions.
"Anyway, I’m just a troublesome woman." Zhu Pingniang pursed her lips.
"Why think that way?"
"Does Ah Bai not find me troublesome?"
"A little bit."
Zhu Pingniang: "..."
Li Zhibai shook her head: "Your change is quite big, I need some time to adapt."
"Tsk." Zhu Pingniang clicked her tongue, her gaze seemed very unhappy, but if you seriously observe, you could sense the steadily rising body temperature and heartbeat of Zhu Pingniang.
This seemingly calm or even slightly ’strange’ conversation between Li Zhibai and Zhu Pingniang was exactly how they’ve interacted in the past.
It may seem strange, but if you look closely, you’d find every word spoken is truth.
This is anything but strange, rather a thorough heart-to-heart conversation.
Previously, Zhu Tong Jun only felt comfortable chatting with Li Zhibai, but since her heart became so ’impure’ after transforming into Zhu Pingniang, she’s sensed phases of heart-stirring within this daily routine.
Suppressing the impulse to charge up and hug Li Zhibai’s slender waist tightly, Zhu Pingniang’s knuckles turned white from the pressure.
"In any case, Chang’an has no master yet, and he’s your student... He broke my body, so you as the teacher should compensate." Zhu Pingniang said.
After recording a new part of Wen Li’s data, Li Zhibai said: "That’s only fair."
She’s Xu Chang’an’s teacher.
The student stirs trouble, being orphaned, if she doesn’t compensate, then who would?
Zhu Pingniang felt the natural pampering Li Zhibai has for Xu Chang’an and felt a bit envious.
Indeed, Ah Bai thinks it’s entirely natural.
So, she was right to think that since Li Zhibai would readily take responsibility, then if Xu Chang’an were ever bullied outside, she would likewise stand up for him.
Zhu Pingniang calculated internally.
Indeed, if Chang’an were bullied outside, like getting beaten by someone with higher cultivation, then Ah Bai would surely help him get back on track... so, she could see Ah Bai making a name for herself once again?
Clenching her teeth, envying.
"You say I like Chang’an, I return the same to you." Zhu Pingniang grunted: "Clearly, it’s you, Ah Bai, aren’t you too fond of that kid."
"Chang’an." Li Zhibai continued to record Wen Li’s combat data, then casually said: "Like him a lot."
Zhu Pingniang: "..."
The jealousy jar spilled.
For a moment, not knowing whose jealousy to express.
