Chapter: Chapter 65
In the end, Leticia’s confrontation turned into a farce. Unable to break free from Bai Ling’s embrace, everything she had just said lost its credibility.
“This is… so incredibly annoying,” Leticia muttered through gritted teeth.
She used her last request to tell Bai Ling not to bother her anymore today, so she could finally calm down and properly think about what had just happened.
That is, if she wasn’t online with the Commander.
“What’s wrong? You sound a bit unhappy, Qianqian?” The Commander’s voice was as pleasant as ever, and it felt vaguely familiar to Leticia.
The voice of that gray-haired girl she had beaten sounded quite similar to the Commander’s.
Could it be… no, no, no, impossible. With the Commander’s personality, which wasn’t that different from her own, how could she go out of her way to be a hero?
The Commander should be a shut-in who liked to stay at home, be very beautiful, and act perfectly in front of others… just like in some manga.
Although Leticia knew her thoughts were pure wishful thinking, people always had to have hope. Maybe the Commander was just such a perfect girl?
“It’s nothing, I had a falling out with someone,” Leticia mumbled, resting her chin on her hand.
The Commander pondered for a moment and asked, “With Xiao Bai?”
She didn’t really understand Leticia’s social circle, but from her previous online interactions with the Bai Ling sisters, she had deduced that Leticia was a shut-in with practically zero social activities.
The only person she could have a falling out with seemed to be Xiao Bai.
As for Xiao Ya, the Commander really didn’t believe Leticia would be so petty as to argue with a younger girl.
But Xiao Bai was very likely. After all, according to Xiao Bai herself, she and Leticia had had a small conflict in the past, and this conflict still caused Leticia to hold a grudge.
“Who else? I clearly told her not to bother me, but she just does whatever she wants. What about my dignity? She comes and goes as she pleases, like my house is a public restroom?” Leticia complained about Bai Ling like a machine gun, her voice filled with resentment that could make the Commander visualize something pitch-black.
“Um, Qianqian, did something happen between you and Xiao Bai before?” the Commander asked cautiously.
She actually didn’t know exactly what had happened between Leticia and Bai Ling. She only knew that the incident had made Leticia hate Bai Ling, but Bai Ling hadn’t shown any particular reaction to it.
“We had a very bad relationship before. Really bad. I mean, it was genuinely bad. For example, I wanted to kill her, and she wanted to kill me.”
“Later, I transferred schools, and she stayed at the original school. I thought I would never interact with her again, but a few days ago, she suddenly appeared.”
“It would have been fine if she had just appeared, but for some reason, she seems to have latched onto me. She comes over every day, which is really annoying.”
“Commander, what do you think I should do?”
The Commander felt she was clueless when it came to relationships and couldn’t understand the emotional issues between these two little geniuses.
No, this description from Leticia made it easy to misunderstand things.
What did she mean by “had a very bad relationship before”?
If their relationship was that bad, could they be like this now?
“Qianqian, tell me honestly, do you actually dislike Xiao Bai?”
“Of course I…”
“Don’t be tsundere at this moment. I want the real answer.” The Commander interrupted Leticia because she knew what word would come out of Leticia’s mouth.
“I…” Leticia fell silent. She remembered Bai Ling’s embrace that made her unable to resist. In fact, she didn’t dislike Bai Ling that much.
“Actually, I don’t dislike her that much, right?” The Commander chuckled. This girl Qianqian was truly a textbook example of a tsundere.
She claimed to hate Xiao Bai so much, but in reality, she liked her a lot. This girl was just awkward and unwilling to admit it.
In this world, being tsundere leads nowhere. When someone has already made a move, you’re still playing hard to get; that’s just being a failure in love.
“I really hate her, but I don’t know why I can’t bring myself to refuse her.” Leticia was truly distressed. She just couldn’t bring herself to refuse Bai Ling’s requests.
She was a Demon King, after all. Not being able to be ruthless was a joke.
Back then, she could hang her younger sister from a tree and whip her severely with a big whip. It would be foolish to say she couldn’t be ruthless then.
But Bai Ling was an exception. Leticia truly felt the inability to be ruthless. She wanted to refuse Bai Ling but could never say the words.
“Sigh, Qianqian, although I, your Commander, have never been in a relationship and don’t have many good friends, based on my years of immersing myself in anime and manga, you’ve developed feelings.”
“Developed feelings for what? I hate her to death!” The Commander’s words made Leticia a little bewildered. Developed feelings? She couldn’t possibly develop feelings for Bai Ling.
Absolutely not.
The Commander felt a wry smile. As expected, Qianqian’s tsundere nature was etched into her bones. Look at her now; wasn’t she just like a young girl in her early stages of romantic love?
And she still insisted she hadn’t developed feelings. In the Commander’s opinion, this girl was already head over heels.
“Really?”
“Really,” Leticia said decisively.
Of course, she hated Bai Ling. That was a feud of life and death; she couldn’t forget it so easily.
“Uh-huh?” The Commander was also amused. It was quite interesting to meet such a classic, stubborn tsundere like Qianqian in this day and age.
“Commander, what do you mean by that ‘uh-huh’? Don’t you believe what I’m saying!” Leticia was about to fly into a rage. The Commander treating her like someone who says one thing but means another made her extremely unhappy.
“No, no, no, I absolutely believe you, Qianqian.” The Commander immediately stated that she absolutely believed Leticia. She was Leticia’s Commander, after all, so why wouldn’t she believe Leticia?
However, Xiao Bai was also her good friend, right? So, later, the Commander planned to find Xiao Bai to ask about the situation.
Listen to both sides to be enlightened; believe one side only leads to darkness, especially not trusting the words of a stubborn tsundere like Leticia.
The words of a tsundere are generally better understood in reverse.
“Commander, your words are very perfunctory.”
“Hahahaha, how could that be? An illusion, an illusion.”
…
The cover image was a sticker she happened to see in a group chat. She felt it matched her image of Bai Ling quite well, so she used it.
But Leticia is not that fat cat!
She’s not that fat!
