Chapter: Chapter 80
“I don’t know. Let’s talk about the specifics tonight.” Bai Ling shook her head and refused Qira’s request. She was willing to ask for the truth here, but if she did, she would have to hand over the book.
She couldn’t give Qira the truth first and then the book later that night, could she?
Bai Ling believed that with Qira’s personality, she would never do such a thing.
“We’re so familiar with each other, so what’s wrong with doing it a little earlier? Why must it be at night?” Qira pouted unhappily. It would be best if the transaction could be completed here.
But judging from Bai Ling’s reaction, this plan might fall through.
“The book isn’t with me right now.” Bai Ling said that it wasn’t that she didn’t want to do it, but that she didn’t have the item for the transaction.
“Eh, I thought Sister Bai Ling came here to scope out the place. Is that not the case?”
“No, I’m meeting someone.” Bai Ling glanced at the billboard where Leticia was hiding.
Qira nodded thoughtfully. If she was meeting someone, she could probably guess who Bai Ling was meeting.
After all, Bai Ya had mentioned her sister’s emotional issues to Qira quite a bit. One of the heroines, the prideful girl who lived downstairs from the Bai family, should be the person Bai Ling was meeting this time.
“Is it Miss Qianqian?”
“…Yes.” Bai Ling nodded. She felt that Leticia might not be able to hide anymore.
Qira’s sudden appearance caught them both off guard. Bai Ling couldn’t even imagine how beautiful the scene would be if Qira caught Leticia here.
“I’ve always heard Xiao Ya talk about her Sister Qianqian. I wonder if I’ll have the chance to meet her today?” Qira asked with a smile.
If she guessed correctly, this Sister Qianqian should be the white-clothed person from the Black and White Duo.
Of course, this was just a guess, but it was a pretty reliable guess.
“No.” Bai Ling said with a cold face. Although it wasn’t visible on the outside, she was trying her best to make her expression look fierce.
Her expression made Qira break out in a cold sweat. She felt that the young girl in front of her seemed very angry.
Why was she angry? She just wanted to meet that Sister Qianqian.
What was so wrong with that? Bai Ling wouldn’t be so petty as to not let anyone see her, would she?
“She’s shy around strangers, Miss Su. You shouldn’t force her.” Bai Ling maintained her expression as much as possible, telling a white lie. “If there’s nothing else, could you please leave quickly?”
Qira’s mouth twitched involuntarily. The current Bai Ling looked like she was protecting her little wife, which was truly a very peculiar feeling.
“Alas, alright then.” Seeing that Bai Ling was so impolite and asking her to leave, Qira sighed and stood up from the chair with great reluctance. “I’m leaving, I’m leaving.”
Holding a cup of un-drank milk tea, Qira took a deep look at the billboard. Of course, she knew there was someone hiding behind it. She figured it must be the shy Miss Su Qianqian.
She had wanted to meet Bai Ling’s white-clothed partner as well, but now it seemed her plan had gone down the drain.
Bai Ling was likely just a henchman for the person behind the scenes. She probably didn’t know much.
However, her strength was indeed a bit outrageous.
Thinking this, Qira walked towards the main entrance, looking back frequently. Anyone who didn’t know would think she had fallen for Bai Ling.
After watching Qira leave with extremely kind eyes, Bai Ling said to Leticia, “You can come out now. Qira has left.”
After about a minute, Leticia tentatively poked her head out, looking nervous. “She really left?”
“She’s really gone. You should be able to sense it, right?”
“I’m worried she’ll pull a U-turn. You have no idea how difficult that girl is to deal with.” Leticia breathed a sigh of relief and slumped back into the chair Qira had just vacated.
After calming her racing heart, Leticia looked at Bai Ling with a probing gaze and asked the question she had wanted to ask earlier, “You’ve known Qira for a long time?”
Qira’s calls of “Sister Bai Ling” were so sweet that even the original sister, Leticia, felt a slight pang of jealousy.
“Don’t explain yet, let me guess.” Leticia declared that she had guessed everything. Recalling the events of the past few days, she felt that she had been severely betrayed by Bai Ling.
“Qira is that good friend Xiaoya made named Su Qi, right? After you borrowed my glasses, you must have realized that Su Qi is my sister Qira, but you lied to me, saying you didn’t know Su Qi.”
“I trusted you so much, but you kept this from me on such an important matter. Bai Ling, you’ve disappointed me too much!”
In the face of Leticia’s unwarranted accusations, Bai Ling raised her hand and placed it on the somewhat agitated Leticia’s shoulder. “You never had any hope for me.”
Didn’t Leticia always say they were enemies and their relationship was bad?
So, as enemies, was there anything wrong with Bai Ling lying to Leticia? No, right?
It was just that Leticia was too naive to believe Bai Ling wouldn’t lie.
“I misjudged you.” Leticia was stunned by Bai Ling’s words. After thinking for a long time, she could only dryly utter a soft sentence.
She was the one who kept emphasizing that they were enemies, yet when Bai Ling deceived her, she got angry. What kind of logic was that?
Leticia didn’t want to be an unreasonable girl, even though she had the status and strength to be unreasonable.
“People change. But why are you so afraid to meet Qira? She’s your own sister.”
“It’s precisely because she’s my own sister that I don’t dare to see her.” Leticia covered her face, not wanting Bai Ling to see her expression. “I really don’t know how to face Qira. How can I, such an incompetent sister, have the face to see her?”
“Then you’re still going to frame her tonight?”
“Tonight, I’m Xiao Hei, not Leticia.” When it came to the matter tonight, Leticia immediately stated that she was good at role-playing. “I just don’t want Qira to know that Su Qianqian is Leticia. As for Xiao Hei? I will never admit that I am Xiao Hei.”
Xiao Hei and Leticia were different people. By hiding herself under the white robe, Leticia believed she could talk to Qira without any psychological burden and get what she wanted from her.
“If you feel it’s too much, I can help.” However, Bai Ling was still a bit worried about Leticia’s state.
Her performance just now, like a startled bird, was really unconvincing.
