Chapter 592: Alive and Kicking

This house is not a garbage dump, allowing others to make noise and mess around.

…all of you, go outside and make noise!

Yagyū Simozi stood up and scolded, and also angrily broke a cheap table.

But at the moment, everyone didn’t feel anything was wrong.

It was just right for her to interrupt this strange atmosphere.

With no parents at home and Bai Wei being unmarried, she, as his sister, became the only female head of the household.

Since she was the female head, she had some say in the conversation. Bai Xinghui could only step back for now and not engage in a verbal battle with Yagyū Simozi. Especially since Yagyū Simozi was a newcomer who hadn’t even set foot in the house yet, she would have to see if she was willing to be called her sister-in-law.

With a scolding, the tension eased a little, but it also became more stiff.

Ao Hanli stopped speaking, taking a deep breath to calm herself.

Ying Mu twirled her fingers around her hair, purposely provoking the princess from the East Sea with her gaze.

Bai Xinghui sighed softly, giving Bai Wei a disapproving look – "What kind of woman have you brought home, brother?"

Bai Wei calmly picked up a disposable cup from the ground and took a sip of tea – "No worries, you haven’t seen them really go at it yet."

At that moment, the aunt in the kitchen popped her head out and asked. If the table is broken, how are we going to have dinner tonight? This is our dining table.

Yagyū Simozi looked at the broken table and nervously rubbed her hands together, saying, "I didn’t mean to break it completely."

"When someone is very angry, they can unleash some hidden potential," Bai Xinghui said. "Should we go buy a new table?"

Ao Hanli said. No need to bother, just have someone deliver one to us.

Ying Mu raised an eyebrow and asked. You think we need your help? Is that what you’re implying?

All of them were dragon maidens from the Eastern Sea, who all came from wealthy families, didn’t they?

Bai Wei stood up and said. I’ll go get some tools. We can fix it and still use it instead of buying a new one. Don’t you know what it means to be thrifty?

The fallen ruler who chopped down several golden trees and drained the national treasury to build an aircraft carrier, said so.

Ying Mu volunteered, saying, "I’ll help."

Ao Hanli chuckled. You need me? Who do you think you are?

"Sit down, all of you, and talk nicely," Bai Wei said, rubbing his forehead and speaking in a stern tone, "If you keep arguing, I’ll kick you out."

Ao Hanli had no intention of arguing either.

Ying Mu asked insistently, "Are you here to kick?"

Everyone turned their heads to look.

Ao Hanli glared at Ying Mu and couldn’t help but say, "Calm down a little, don’t go crazy here!"

Bai Wei took out a toolbox, found a hammer and a golden tree resin to use as glue, and began repairing the table. The girls moved to another living room and sat on the sofa, while the transparent coffee table trembled with fear. It wasn’t made of wood, so if someone slapped it, it would just crack and couldn’t be fixed.

Yagyū Simozi had an indifferent attitude towards these people, but deep inside, she was filled with anger and wanted to kick them out immediately.

It was Bai Xinghui’s turn to lead the conversation, and she asked. So, who is this person?

"Ying Mu," the dragon maiden introduced herself, "I live in Chao Lake."

"Is it in Chao Lake city?"

"Exactly in Chao Lake."

Without much thought, Bai Xinghui looked at Ying Mu and noticed a blurry mist covering her face. She asked. Are you two relatives?

"Yes," casually replied Ao Hanli, "we are blood relatives. We see each other all the time. I’ve disliked her for many years. I heard she almost died recently, but she managed to come back alive. How disappointing."

Their words were very hurtful. To insult someone by saying "Why don’t you just go die?" is very emotionally damaging. Unfortunately, they had already severed their relationship, so there were no feelings left to hurt. Moreover, Ying Mu wasn’t bothered by it at all; she even took pride in it.

"After all, I’m different from someone," Ying Mu said with a smile. "I don’t like staying at home, I prefer going out and exploring. It’s inevitable that I’ll encounter some risks. That’s why I can meet better people."

"It’s ridiculous! When you first met, your attitude was so arrogant," Ao Hanli brought up an old grudge. "You even got physically assaulted."

Bai Xinghui exclaimed in surprise, "Brother, you hit a woman?"

Bai Wei hammered a nail with a casual "uhh" sound, and added. As a true egalitarian, I’ve beaten up plenty of women.

Ying Mu disagreed, saying, "Our first meeting wasn’t pleasant, but it’s in the past. When I think about it, I really deserved a beating back then. I was asking for trouble, but unfortunately, it didn’t wake me up."

"Wake up." Ao Hanli sneered. You still deserve a beating now, and you haven’t made any progress.

"But such is life, unpredictable. You never know if opening a box will reveal chocolates or a heavy punch. For me, I took a punch and was almost killed, but in the end, I still got to enjoy some candy. I’m pretty satisfied." Ying Mu boasted confidently.

Although there were others enjoying the candy, she could now pretend they didn’t exist and be the only one who lived through the years.

Bai Xinghui sensed an underlying meaning and leaned forward slightly, asking, "Could you please elaborate?"

"Of course, I owe my life to your brother, thanks to his rescue. I barely escaped death and came back alive." Ying Mu said openly.

"So that’s the connection." Yagyū Simozi replied calmly, "So you’re here to repay the favor as well?"

"To some extent."

"It seems like you don’t deny it, but why does it have to be in this way?"

"To repay a debt, offering oneself, is this a traditional skill in the Ming Country?"

"Fox spirits repay favors like this, but you shouldn’t be a fox spirit," said the younger sister. "Think it over carefully."

"I have already thought it through," Ying Mu said earnestly. "I don’t joke about these things, after all, I am not…"

Ao Hanli argued sharply, "There’s no such thing as joking or not joking, only whether it’s appropriate or not. Is your situation a bit too one-sided in enthusiasm? Do you know what this behavior is? With such a strong intention, it can’t be called mutual love, let alone soulmates. Even if this marriage is forced, it will surely fall apart in the end."

She glanced at Bai Wei, hoping for his approval. Ao Hanli didn’t believe Bai Wei would be interested in Ying Mu. There was no "spark" between them, nothing that would make someone go "wow" at first sight.

"Stop looking, brother can’t hear," Yagyū Simozi said. "His hearing was just sealed off. Even if you gasp beside him, he won’t hear."

"Who would…" Ao Hanli didn’t expect a young girl to have such explosive remarks.

"Let me go and try," Ying Mu stood up directly.

"Sit down!" Several people looked at each other with cold expressions.

"It was just a joke," Dragon Maiden said helplessly. "You guys have no sense of humor. I would never…"

"You wouldn’t?"

"Not here, we should save this kind of excitement for later," Ying Mu shared some lesser-known knowledge for everyone to consider. "I heard that if you close off certain senses, the remaining ones become incredibly strong. For example…"

Bai Xinghui waved her hands frantically. "Why are you suddenly talking about these things? I’m still an innocent girl, not suitable for hearing such things. Let’s stop here!"

Hearing this made her blush, and she discreetly looked at Bai Wei. Bai Wei, with an expressionless face, was busy fixing the table, which was already partially repaired.

"What a mess," Yagyū Simozi sighed, finding life challenging.

"So, both of the potential marriage partners for my older brother are people he already knew?" Bai Xinghui noticed a loophole.

"Not me," Ying Mu said. "Originally, I was not supposed to be the one, but I took another girl’s place. However, I made it up to her as well."

It was a very scary and exciting action.

"Although it’s not completely understandable, it’s really unbelievable."

Bai Xinghui had one direct question in her heart – What kind of people are you all?

"Let’s end today’s visit here." Ao Hanli planned to leave, as there was no point in staying here, maybe they should stay and finish dinner?

Ying Mu smiled and replied. Take care!

"You’re coming with me too!" Ao Hanli said without hesitation, "Our matter isn’t resolved yet."

Ying Mu’s smile faded. Sure, let’s go to the dance studio…

Just as the words fell, once again, a startling sound came, knock knock knock… it was the crisp sound of knocking on the door.

Even though Bai Wei closed off his hearing, he still felt a surge of anxiety that made him instinctively pause, exerting great willpower to resist turning back.

Yagyū Simozi’s expression had twisted slightly, looking grim.

"Let me open the door." Bai Xinghui knew from Yagyū Simozi’s expression that if she opened the door, there might be a bloody incident. She had to take responsibility herself.

Standing up, taking steps, reaching out her hand, she opened the door… A beautiful figure stood outside.

Bai Xinghui glanced at this unfamiliar woman and asked. Who are you?

"I’m here to find Bai Wei, my name is…"

"Are you also here for my brother’s blind date?"

"Huh?" Xue Hanlei tilted her head. But I’m already married.

"What?" Bai Xinghui exclaimed. My brother would even go after a married woman…
