Chapter: Chapter 201
“Instinct? I can only say that sometimes instinct can be deceiving.” Leticia made a face at Shirley. “For example, I might be some great demon king trying to destroy the world.”
“Pfft, Sister Qianqian is so funny.” Shirley clearly didn’t believe Leticia’s little warning.
These are mortals, flesh and blood, even if Leticia told her her true identity, she would only be told “You’re so humorous.”
It truly made one speechless.
“Believe it or not.” Leticia didn’t dwell on the matter. Currently, the person standing here was the ordinary girl Su Qianqian, not the demon empress Leticia.
Chatting with Shirley by the roadside to pass the time, Leticia also learned some information about Shirley.
Shirley came from a city to the west of the human world. The culture and geography there were vastly different from the central city. If the central city was a world of technology, then that place could be called backward and superstitious.
Various religions prevailed, and the city leaders all believed in different doctrines, which often led to them sabotaging each other during decision-making.
“Some religious doctrines are very strange… Forget it, since I’m out this time, I won’t talk about these unpleasant things.” Shirley seemed to have thought of something unhappy and abruptly interrupted the topic. “Sister Qianqian, can you tell me what the central city is like? I could only get some news about the central city from newspapers before.”
Letica sighed with regret that Shirley didn’t delve deeper into the topic. “The central city is very developed, the people there are very enthusiastic, and it’s quite safe to live there.”
“Safe?” Shirley showed an envious look. The city she lived in had no connection to the word safe.
Leticia nodded naturally. Although there were still many dark forces vying in secret in the central city, they were generally well-behaved and did not bring their conflicts into the open.
Once it affected the lives of the citizens, they would have to face not their peers, but the elites sent by the Hero Association and the United Government.
“It’s no exaggeration to say it’s the safest place in this world.” Of course, this was just a compliment. In Leticia’s heart, her Demon King’s City was no worse than the central city.
But when it came to safety, Leticia had to admit defeat, because her Demon King’s City had always faced a very realistic threat: having her home raided by the Sword Saint.
The Sword Saint was too much of a variable. With her around, every city of a different race was unsafe.
As if on cue, just as Leticia thought of this, a yellow taxi stopped beside her.
The window of the passenger seat slowly lowered, revealing a beautiful little face she hadn’t seen in months.
Bai Ling’s eyes first swept over Shirley, then fell on Leticia’s face. “Hurry up and get in the car. We can still make it back in time for afternoon tea.”
“You have a habit of drinking afternoon tea?” Leticia asked, raising an eyebrow as she opened the rear door.
“If you have it, I must have it too.” Bai Ling replied concisely.
As Shirley closed the car door, the driver wearing sunglasses turned the steering wheel, making a U-turn on this almost deserted road.
Through the rearview mirror, Bai Ling carefully observed the blonde girl she had met once. To be clear, Bai Ling wasn’t jealous; she was just curious about this girl who couldn’t even speak the common language fluently.
She had just asked the driver, and this street was a “ghost street” in this city, and even the city’s upper echelons deliberately ignored its existence.
Backward and out of place with the rest of the city, that was the first impression of this street.
Almost no one would think of coming here, and most of the original residents who lived here had moved to other parts of the city.
Those who remained here were almost all homeless vagrants. They could be considered quite dangerous people.
Fortunately, it was afternoon, and those people didn’t dare to cause trouble in broad daylight. If Leticia had arrived at night, Bai Ling wouldn’t have been able to get a taxi.
It was one thing that the driver was unwilling to come, and another that Bai Ling was afraid the driver would be scared unconscious after coming.
Leticia’s temper was always very bad. If anyone dared to touch her, there would only be one outcome.
If you weren’t Bai Ling, you could go to the underworld and tell King Yama what you did to get there.
It was easy to understand why Leticia entered this neighborhood. It was also the entrance area of the city, so it was normal for Leticia to travel here.
But the appearance of the blonde here was a bit strange. Bai Ling remembered that she arrived here at the same time as herself, which meant this blonde had been playing in the city for several days.
Bai Ling had been hiding near the hotel without moving much, but this blonde should have been wandering around. How could she not know about this neighborhood?
So, her appearance here was strange.
Leticia’s gaze shifted back and forth between Bai Ling and Shirley. Bai Ling did not hide her gaze.
“What is this guy doing?” Leticia muttered to herself.
First, the possibility of Bai Ling being seduced by beauty was ruled out. Leticia thought Bai Ling wasn’t the type to like big things.
Although Shirley’s bulging chest was indeed eye-catching, based on the reason Bai Ling liked herself, Leticia dared to guarantee that Bai Ling actually liked flat chests.
“Ahem, Ms. Bai, pay attention to your gaze.” But it wasn’t good for Bai Ling to keep staring at the girl’s chest, so Leticia coughed lightly to remind Bai Ling to restrain herself.
Leticia’s voice woke Bai Ling from her thoughts. She realized that when she was thinking, her eyes had happened to rest on Shirley’s chest.
Seeing the girl’s blushing, angry face, Bai Ling had to be grateful inwardly that Leticia wouldn’t misunderstand anything because of this.
It seemed that Leticia and Bai Ling had reached a consensus on the fact that she actually liked flat chests.
This was probably a good thing. At least Leticia wouldn’t be jealous or angry because Bai Ling’s gaze fell on another girl’s chest.
However, Leticia had never been jealous or angry so far, and it was always Miss Bai who was jealous.
She wondered if she would ever see the Demon King小姐 get jealous in her lifetime.
Along the way, there was no communication between the three girls in the car. They were strangers for now, and Shirley didn’t seem like a girl who was good at socializing.
As for Leticia and Bai Ling, their social skills were probably inversely proportional to their combat power.
When Bai Ling sat next to her, Leticia didn’t have the courage to chat and laugh with other girls. Bai Ling’s yandere expression last time had left a deep impression on her.
But if she talked to Bai Ling, she might get heated and say something that others would find strange, so it was better to obediently look at her phone and pretend to be mute.
“Wow, why didn’t you say anything just now? Aren’t you good at talking?” After getting out of the car, Leticia let out a long sigh. The atmosphere in the car just now was too awkward.
Bai Ling gave Leticia a speechless look. This girl’s ability to tell lies with her eyes open had not regressed at all.
She said she couldn’t talk before, and now she said she was good at talking. So, in Leticia’s mind, was she good at talking or not?
“Sister Qianqian, Miss Bai, thank you both very much for giving me a ride back.” At this moment, Shirley walked over to thank them.
She slightly bent over and bowed. The two prominent parts of her body swayed up and down with her movements, causing Leticia to raise her eyebrows.
This girl was really over-nourished.
“What, jealous?” Bai Ling nudged Leticia with her elbow. “Want such big ones too?”
“Forget it, I’m not interested in such things.” Leticia’s gaze shifted to Bai Ling. “It’s better to be not too big or too small. Too big lacks aesthetic appeal.”
“Oh? Can I take that as you praising my aesthetic appeal?”
“If you give them an inch, they’ll take a mile, right? Get lost.” Leticia pushed Bai Ling’s slowly approaching face away impatiently. “Shirley is still watching.”
Shirley’s eyes darted back and forth between Leticia and Bai Ling. She seemed to smell gossip.
There might be a special relationship between these two girls.
“Ahem, I was just giving you a ride back, Sister Shirley. We live in the same place anyway, so it won’t cost me anything to bring you back.” Leticia said to Shirley with a smile. Her change of expression was indeed perfected. “As for this guy, just ignore her.”
“Ignoring me is too hurtful.” Bai Ling smiled and hugged Leticia from behind, burying her head in Leticia’s silky black hair, only revealing her eyes that shone with a threatening light.
From those eyes, Shirley felt as if she could hear Bai Ling saying, “Don’t interfere in our business, or I’ll kill you.”
The relationship between these two is definitely not normal!
“Then, I’ll go back to my room to rest?” Shirley forced a smile. She felt her breathing was a little difficult under Bai Ling’s threatening gaze.
Her heart began to pound, and a wave of dizziness made Shirley want to leave immediately.
With just a glance, she had such great destructive power. This Miss Bai must be a very powerful character.
“Shirley, you don’t look well.” Seeing Shirley’s complexion gradually turning pale, Leticia turned her head to look at Bai Ling with some confusion. “Did you do something?”
Before Leticia’s gaze came over, Bai Ling had already hidden her eyes in Leticia’s hair.
When she turned her head, all Leticia saw was a big, snow-white head.
“Hmm? It has nothing to do with me.” Bai Ling raised her head again, looking innocent.
But Shirley saw a hint of threat from the depths of those blood-red eyes, as if saying that if she dared to reveal what happened before, she would kill her.
“It’s okay, I just have a little low blood sugar.” Shirley quickly lowered her head and ran away in shame without even a proper goodbye.
“Strange.” Leticia tilted her head, then reached out to push Bai Ling’s head away. “I say, can you stop being so close? It’s really hot, you know?”
The sun was very bright today, and it was the hottest part of the day. Bai Ling, as everyone knew, had a warm body. With such a big furnace sticking to her, Leticia felt as if she had entered a furnace.
She was wearing rather thick clothes today. With such a hug, sweat was pouring out of her.
In just a short time, Leticia’s underclothes were already soaked with sweat. She really wanted to go to her place to take a shower.
“Hot?” Bai Ling looked up at the sun. It was probably hot, but she wasn’t that sensitive to temperature changes. “Then let’s go inside quickly. The hotel has air conditioning.”
She clearly had no intention of letting go of Leticia.
“Please, you can’t hug a girl without her consent, you know this is a crime?” Leticia had no choice but to drag the big furnace behind her and walk step by step towards the hotel entrance.
If she argued with Bai Ling here, she would probably be completely soaked by the time she entered.
She couldn’t even settle the score with Bai Ling in a cooler place after the fact.
With great effort, they entered the hotel lobby. Before Leticia could speak, Bai Ling let go of Leticia very consciously.
This made Leticia, who was about to speak, open her mouth halfway, looking a bit at a loss.
What the heck? Why aren’t you playing by the rules? This makes me very awkward, you know?
“Register at the front desk. Your identification documents should be fine, right?” Bai Ling asked softly.
Problems? Of course not.
Leticia took out Su Qianqian’s documents from her pocket and registered with Bai Ling, who had experience.
After registering, Bai Ling grabbed Leticia’s hand and pulled her into the elevator.
By the time Leticia reacted, the elevator doors had already closed. In the somewhat narrow elevator, there were only the two of them, which made the demon empress’s heart start to race.
Looking at Bai Ling operating the elevator panel, Leticia cautiously leaned back a little. She was a bit worried that Bai Ling would give her a forceful kiss like before in this place.
In such a small space, she didn’t even have room to dodge.
Wow, no way, this Miss Bai wouldn’t do something like this, would she?
“You, what’s wrong?” Bai Ling turned around after operating the elevator, only to find that Leticia seemed a bit off.
