Chapter 23
The Little Devil
The girl returned after five minutes.
In her hands was a bucket of cool water. Erm, to be exact, it was a bucket of… icy cold water!
She had especially concocted this mix of cold water with ice cubes that she emptied from the entire fridge!
Back in the room where Su Jieyu was trying her utmost to seduce Chi Zuxu…
Suddenly, a loud splash could be heard— WOOSH!
A pail of cold water with ice cubes flooded down on Su Jieyu’s head.
“Ahhh!”
Shivering from shock and cold, she screamed, “Who’s that?! Who’s the crazy one to splash water on me?!”
“What the hell!”
The little devil stood high and above on Chi Zuxu’s study table. With the big steel bucket still in her hands, she made a face at Su Jieyu, stuck her tongue smugly at the latter and then jumped down from the table.
Now, she felt so much better.
“You’re crazy!” Looking extremely embarrassed and messy, the woman quickly put back on the dress that she had removed earlier.
“Sister Jieyu, I did this out of good intentions! I saw you removing your clothes so I thought you must be badly affected by the hot weather! I was just helping you to cool down so how can you turn around to scold me instead?”
She put on a face of innocence.
The lass’ action gave the man quite a headache, though.
She really gave him a taste of what she was capable of!
Su Jieyu’s face had turned a shade darker from rage. She looked terrible and almost burst into tears from the humiliation. Pointing a finger at Chi Yi’s small face, she lambasted, “You’ve gone too far this time!”
With that, she picked up the handbag on the floor and dashed off, crying as she left the mansion.
After the woman left, the little girl threw the bucket on the floor indignantly. The steel container hit the floor with a loud ‘PONG’ as she sneered angrily at her uncle. “Third Uncle, you’re such a casanova! It’s a pity that she’s a lousy pick!”
She ran out of his study room after saying that and refused to leave her bedroom thereafter.
Unfortunately, the man did not show any intention to pacify her which only antagonized her further.
She could not imagine what could have happened if she had appeared a moment later!
Would his uncle be held captive by Su Jieyu, that bad woman?!
...............
For the next few days, Chi Yi did not return home immediately after school. Instad, she went to the bar with Su Yunhua and another classmate.
Her friends were there to relieve stress. As for her, she went there to drown her sorrows!
Inside the bar, the deafening sound of heavy metal music could be heard over the blaring neon lights of red and green.
The three of them drank and went to the dance floor to strut their stuff occasionally. Half an hour later, however, only two girls remained. Li Mi had mysteriously gone missing.
“Where’s Li Mi?” Chi Yi asked her friend once she returned from the dance floor.
“Her boyfriend is here so she should be outside coddling him!”
“Boyfriend?”
Tsk tsk!
So people around her already had boyfriends!
She was reminded that the man she liked was currently in love with someone else instead and this upset her even more.
“Her boyfriend is Lu Liye, he recently transferred from another school. This boy is hot! He is especially good-looking and charismatic! Have you seen him before?”
Lu Liye?
This name was not foreign to her.
Her boy-crazy classmates would occasionally mention this name, however, she had never seen him in person.
