Yun Bilu yelled, “Elder Sister Yaoyao, don’t go! Don’t leave me in the lurch! Elder Sister Yaoyao, you’re my kind elder sister, aren’t you?”
Bai Yaoyao smiled and looked at Yun Bilu, and a playful glint flashed across her eyes. “He just wants you to run. What’s there to be scared of?”
Yun Bilu noticed the iciness in Huang Yize’s eyes and shuddered. The corners of her lips turned down as she whined, “Elder Sister Yaoyao, he’ll make me run for a long time.”
Huang Yize patted Yun Bilu’s head and asked, “Are you that scared of me?”
Hearing Huang Yize’s words, Yun Bilu immediately straightened her back. With her hands akimbo, she puffed up her chest and looked at Huang Yize. “I’m not afraid of you at all.”
Huang Yize saw the expression on her face and couldn’t help but chuckle. “Fine, you don’t have to run tonight, but you still have to do it in the future. Your stamina is horrible.” In reality, Huang Yize had a reason for everything he did—he wanted to train Yun Bilu’s abilities. After all, once she accompanies him in the Black Dragon Gang in the future, she shouldn’t be in this state.
Yun Bilu clasped her hands together and begged for mercy. This time, Huang Yize refused to give in to her. “There’s no use in begging me. Will you be more willing to run if I do it with you?”
Yun Bilu hesitated. She pursed her lips, then answered, “That’s more like it.”
Bai Yaoyao watched their interactions and felt that they were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with youthful energy, not to mention that they were exceptionally warm to each other. She suddenly recalled the days of her youth and how she used to be so sprightly. However, she had used up all her energy and effort on Xirong Ziye, and in the end, she grew weary and couldn’t find the motivation to love someone else again.
If she could go back in time and be given a chance to choose again, she wondered if she would still fall for Xirong Ziye. Would she still be as courageous and reckless for his sake?
As she thought about this, she shook her head. Xirong Ziye was getting married soon, and there was no point in thinking about it anymore. She would never think about him ever again.
Bilu showed her the photos of those handsome men, but she just browsed through them half-heartedly. Deep down, she couldn’t stop herself from thinking about Xirong Ziye.
She thought that she needed time to wash away all her memories. Perhaps she needed a new relations.h.i.+p to erase her pain.
At that very moment, Bai Yaoyao made a life-changing decision—she shall start afresh. Goodbye, Xirong Ziye. They would become strangers from now on, and they would forget about each other until the end of time.
She stood rooted to the spot as she s.p.a.ced out while looking out the window.
Yun Bilu ran to Bai Yaoyao’s side. Hugging her arm, Yun Bilu complained, “Elder Sister Yaoyao, you saw everything, right? He’s bullying me.”
Bai Yaoyao looked at the pure and naive Yun Bilu and smiled. Patting her hand, Bai Yaoyao answered, “Haven’t you heard of tough love? Do you understand now, young lady?”
Yun Bilu replied anxiously, “Oh no! Elder Sister Yaoyao, even you are bullying me.”
Bai Yaoyao’s eyes lit up. “I’m bullying you? Come here, I’ll show you how I’m bullying you!” As she spoke, she started tickling Yun Bilu.
Yun Bilu giggled loudly. “No! Elder Sister Yaoyao, it tickles! Okay, I’ll stop fooling around!”
Bai Yaoyao withdrew her hands and said, “Now you’re begging for mercy! Look at you. Only he can handle and protect you well.”
“Elder Sister Yaoyao, are you complaining about me?”
Bai Yaoyao gently flicked Yun Bilu’s forehead. “Young lady, you’re so heartless. How could you say that I’m complaining about you? I think you’re the one who thinks that I’m too old.”
Yun Bilu held Bai Yaoyao’s arm and said, “Stop it, Elder Sister Yaoyao. If you continue, I’ll hide in a hole. You’re not old at all, okay? You’re gorgeous. I’ll arrange for your blind dates with those men tomorrow. I’m very sure you’ll charm them.”
Although Bai Yaoyao giggled softly, she couldn’t help but feel anxious. Could she really take her love back and give it to someone else?
