Chapter 69: Mountain Stronghold Wife?
Under normal circumstances, Luo Shuangxing would never doubt that her older brother’s wife could be taken away by another girl, but this is not a normal situation, and clearly, Dark Butterfly is not a normal person.
Everything about this guy exudes the word “weird,” especially her attitude towards Sister Xia Mo, which is simply “weird beyond weird!”
Licking ears, putting fingers on lips, and that joyful expression on her face truly makes it hard not to suspect Dark Butterfly’s feelings towards Sister Xia Mo.
Luo Shuangxing never expected that her older brother’s enemy would not be another man, but a woman!
An ordinary childhood sweetheart versus an irritable opponent falling from the sky—wow, Luo Shuangxing suddenly felt that her older brother was in a bit of danger.
It is well-known that childhood sweethearts cannot compete with those who fall from the sky, and now this “falling from the sky” character has so many buffs—not only is she a magical girl like Sister Xia Mo, but she also has a bad yet good relationship with her. Isn’t this just a super common setting for a protagonist’s couple in cartoons?
“Who is she, Sister Xia Mo?” Luo Shuangxing glared at Dark Butterfly with full hostility. If it weren’t for her current identity, which shouldn’t involve knowing Dark Butterfly, she would have exploded at her long ago!
Knowing the true identity of this bad woman in front of her, but having to pretend she knows nothing, truly made Luo Shuangxing feel a sense of blockage in her heart.
“She is… my friend; you can call her Miss Die,” Xia Mo also felt helpless, as Dark Butterfly only knew her identity and now had to introduce her to Luo Shuangxing.
This feeling was simply strange.
“That’s right, just a friend,” Luo Shuangyue nodded repeatedly from the side.
If I hadn’t seen you and Sister Xia Mo getting cozy, I would believe you, Luo Shuangxing muttered softly.
“Uh, Miss Die, why are you here?” Xia Mo noticed that if this continued, the atmosphere would completely deteriorate, so she quickly changed the subject.
At the same time, she reminded Dark Butterfly not to forget that she still had important matters to attend to.
“There are some things here that concern me. Didn’t you come here to deal with this too?” Luo Shuangxing shot Xia Mo a look that said, “You can’t not know what I’m here for.”
Are you kidding? All the intel is provided by me; isn’t it strange for me to be here?
“Aren’t we here to play?” Luo Shuangxing now played the role of a little girl who knows nothing about everything.
However, this sentence also contained her true thoughts; after all, Sister Xia Mo had not told her why they came to the zoo. The excuse for taking leave was that they discovered something abnormal at the zoo, but Luo Shuangxing had never taken this matter seriously.
But now, after Dark Butterfly’s words, Luo Shuangxing suddenly realized that perhaps the excuse Sister Xia Mo mentioned was not just an excuse.
“Yes, we’re here to play, and by the way, take care of some matters… I’ve already been to the reptile area; there’s nothing worth seeing,” Luo Shuangyue responded, then shared her current findings with Xia Mo.
“And the wild animals here seem to be more irritable than usual; it truly catches the attention…”
“Indeed, we’ve discovered that the animals in the zoo are indeed wilder than usual,” Xia Mo said, casting aside her previous awkwardness as she began to engage in conversation with Dark Butterfly.
This scene, in Luo Shuangxing’s eyes, made this girl feel even more of a crisis.
Sister Xia Mo and Dark Butterfly’s relationship is clearly not ordinary; just look at how they speak now, as if they are old friends who have known each other for many years!
Yet just a few days ago, Sister Xia Mo had been facing off against Dark Butterfly… could this be the charm of a rival from the sky?
After exchanging intel with Xia Mo, Luo Shuangyue noticed that a certain girl beside her was looking at her with an odd gaze.
What’s with the look like you’re seeing a thief? Did I steal something from this girl?
Dark Butterfly’s identity and Luo Shuangxing’s relationship are not that good, but she shouldn’t be a thief!
“It’s almost noon; should we go have lunch together?” Luo Shuangyue asked, glancing up at the sky.
Xia Mo looked at the displeased Luo Shuangxing beside her and shook her head a bit apologetically, “Maybe we should skip it.”
After all, there’s a child here who doesn’t like Dark Butterfly.
Seeing Xia Mo’s small gesture, Luo Shuangyue understood the situation.
“Alright then, I’ll continue to check other places.”
It wasn’t until Luo Shuangyue disappeared into the crowd that Luo Shuangxing huffed angrily.
“That damn girl, I really want to punch her in the face!”
“Eh? Isn’t Miss Die a really nice person? Why do you hate her so much, Linglan?” Completely unaware of the love-hate relationships, Xiaomimi looked confused. Shouldn’t this be their first meeting? Why do they act like sworn enemies?
Luo Shuangxing shot Xiaomimi an annoyed glare, “Dumb cat!”
“?”
“Don’t you think she looks familiar?”
Familiar? Xiaomimi recalled carefully, but it wasn’t quite that familiar, right? Isn’t she just white-haired with red eyes?
Seeing Xiaomimi’s serious expression as she thought but couldn’t come up with a result, Luo Shuangxing covered her forehead and sighed helplessly.
Saying Xiaomimi was a dumb cat really wasn’t wrong; doesn’t Miss Die look exactly like Dark Butterfly?
The hair and eye color are the same!
“She is Dark Butterfly!” Luo Shuangxing raised her hand to make a scary gesture, “She’s that big bad guy!”
“Eh? Dark Butterfly? She is Dark Butterfly?” Shocked, Xiaomimi finally connected Dark Butterfly with Miss Die after the hint from Luo Shuangxing.
Hmm, thinking back, it seems there are indeed some similarities between the two?
But those similarities hadn’t led Xiaomimi to directly connect Miss Die and Dark Butterfly.
“Yes, she is Dark Butterfly, so Sister Xia Mo, why is Dark Butterfly’s attitude towards you so strange?” Luo Shuangxing turned her probing gaze onto Xia Mo.
This is not a topic that can be brushed off in a sentence or two; even an outsider can see that there is a problem with the relationship between Dark Butterfly and Xia Mo.
This is not the kind of relationship enemies should have!
“I don’t know what’s going on; her attitude towards me was very bad before. Maybe now, because we have a common enemy, her attitude has slightly improved,” Xia Mo scratched her cheek, uncertain of how to explain.
She doesn’t have mind reading abilities; how could she know what Dark Butterfly is thinking?
“Why do I feel like Dark Butterfly wants to take Sister Xia Mo back to be the Mountain Stronghold Wife?” Luo Shuangxing said with squinted eyes.
“…That can’t be, right?”
