Chapter: Chapter 14
“I suspect you’re screwing with me,” Leticia said resentfully to Bai Ling, who had the same expression on her face.
“That’s right,” Bai Ling actually nodded naturally, admitting it.
“I’ll kill you!” Leticia, enraged, lunged at Bai Ling, swinging her small fists.
Facing the oncoming pink fists, Bai Ling calmly reached out and effortlessly grasped Leticia’s fists, saying, “Good girl.”
“Get lost!”
“Hahaha, Sister and Sister Qianqian really have a good relationship,” Bai Ya, standing beside them, suddenly felt like an extra. She let out a dry laugh and said to the two girls, “The clothes are all sorted. Shall we go eat barbecue now?”
After spending nearly three hours at the clothing store, Bai Ling waved her hand and ordered over ten outfits, causing the eyes of the sales assistants to shine, wishing they could rush forward, hug Bai Ling’s legs, and shout, “Rich woman, support me!”
These over ten outfits also included three for Leticia, which was Bai Ling’s strong request.
“When the clothes arrive, I’ll come to your place to check them out,” Bai Ling said to Leticia after paying.
The implied meaning was that she would force Leticia to try on these outfits.
To this, Leticia could only say, “MMP.”
Why did she have to wear these clothes? Why!
Undoubtedly, those clothes would be dresses, and dresses were Leticia’s least favorite type of clothing.
Not to mention that the spider spirit happily said to her at the end, “By the way, the matching socks are on me.”
Socks? Leticia had already guessed what kind of socks she was given.
“Roast Bai Ling’s meat? Then I might be a little interested,” Leticia gritted her teeth and squeezed out a sinister voice.
Bai Ya smiled awkwardly, deciding to take Sister Qianqian’s silence as acquiescence.
“Then let’s go to that famous Minotaur barbecue restaurant. I heard the ingredients used there are high-grade beef imported from the plains of the beastmen tribe. The taste is much, much better than our local beef.”
“Okay,” Bai Ling clasped Leticia’s wrist, preventing the girl, who was already fuming, from doing anything irrational.
Seeing her sister’s hand tightly gripping Leticia’s wrist, Bai Ya revealed a knowing expression.
Her sister had denied her relationship with Sister Qianqian just last night, and today they were holding hands. It truly was a case of saying one thing and doing another.
And although Sister Qianqian appeared resistant, her resistance wasn’t that strong, which led Bai Ya to unconsciously believe that Leticia still had some feelings for Bai Ling.
Little did she know that beneath the calm exterior, an extremely intense battle was raging.
Bai Ling’s sword energy and Leticia’s demonic energy were fiercely clashing at the point of contact between their bodies. It was precisely because of this that the atmosphere between Bai Ling and Leticia appeared so harmonious.
Only when Bai Ya led them to the entrance of the barbecue restaurant did the two cease their struggle.
Neither of them could suppress the other in a pure energy comparison. Although Leticia felt somewhat strained, she could still sustain it.
“You’re still as annoying as ever,” Leticia said without preamble, rubbing her slightly bruised wrist.
Bai Ling, on the other hand, stared blankly at her still fair palm and slowly nodded, “You too.”
These two exchanges made Bai Ya even more convinced of her suspicions. Look at what these two were saying; it’s unbelievable they weren’t involved!
Perhaps because it wasn’t yet the official lunch hour, there were few customers in the barbecue restaurant, and the three girls easily found an empty seat.
The waiter brought over the menus. Looking at the dazzling array of items on the menu, fine spiral patterns gradually appeared in Bai Ya’s eyes.
What on earth was this “pan-fried French sweet and sour tomatoes with butter egg granules”!
“Damn, it’s just scrambled eggs with tomatoes, why make it sound so fancy,” Leticia peeked and said speechlessly.
“Ahem, at least it sounds more sophisticated than scrambled eggs with tomatoes, right?” The young waiter naturally chimed in with Leticia’s complaint.
“And the price is much higher too.”
“We have to make money, you know.”
While Leticia was complaining to the waiter about the menu names and prices, the dazed Bai Ya had already picked out what she wanted to eat.
After handing the menu to Bai Ling, Bai Ya suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a set menu for multiple people.
“How about we order a three-person set meal?” she suggested.
“With your sister’s appetite, she can finish a three-person set meal by herself,” Leticia objected, afraid she wouldn’t get what she wanted if they ordered the set meal.
Bai Ling’s face flushed imperceptibly. The amount of food she needed to consume daily was indeed quite large, and the breakfast her sister had prepared that morning, with a normal girl’s portion, had not satisfied her hunger.
In other words, she was… a bit hungry.
However, for a girl, having a large appetite wasn’t a good descriptor.
“I only need this one portion…”
“Don’t be shy, it’s not good to treat yourself poorly.” Before Bai Ling could finish, Leticia snatched the menu from her hand and quickly ordered several more main dishes.
After ordering, she gave Bai Ling, who was already rubbing her hands together in anticipation, a “you’re welcome” smile.
