Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Can I Beat Them Up?

"Uh, the food in the cafeteria isn’t bad," you suddenly blurt out.

"Mhm." Wu Qiyi nods her head, picks up her chopsticks, grabs a chicken leg from your bowl, pops it into her mouth, and savors it. Finally, she doesn’t forget to smile at you and say, "It really is good."

You laugh, shaking your head slightly, "That’s because this piece of chicken was stolen from my bowl, and stolen food always tastes better."

Wu Qiyi slightly tilts her head back, chuckles lightly, and teases, "I just like to steal your food. What are you going to do, not let me?"

"Sure, sure, sure, you can eat however you want."

Wu Qiyi was the same way when you were kids. Whenever you ate together, she would always snatch your food and then act triumphantly. What could you do, when she had your mom backing her up?

To others, Wu Qiyi seemed untouchable, a goddess whose presence only inspired awe; but to you, she was simply Er Ya, a childhood sweetheart who had grown up with you. And now, there was only half a meter between you.

Watching Wu Qiyi’s playful look, you couldn’t help but tease, "Why aren’t you eating? Our school’s cafeteria food is quite good, you know."

Wu Qiyi still doesn’t speak, just stares at you.

"What, you want me to feed you?"

"Yes, I want you to feed me."

Wu Qiyi rarely shows a hint of mischievousness, her red lips naturally curling into a sexy and lively smile.

Seeing you not moving, she laughs and says, "Scared, aren’t you?"

"I’m telling you, don’t think that by provoking me, I’ll be afraid to feed you."

"Hmm, you just don’t dare," Wu Qiyi straightens up, her face full of pride and challenge.

"Kid, I’ve never been afraid," you say, and at once pick up a piece of green pepper with your chopsticks, grinning as you offer it to Wu Qiyi, "Here, eat this green pepper."

Heh, trying to compete with me.

Like with Wu Qiyi, you both knew each other’s temperaments very well, and you also knew that Wu Qiyi had disliked green peppers since childhood.

You chuckled inwardly, taking a proud delight.

To your surprise, Wu Qiyi slowly opens her mouth, coated with lip balm, her red lips revealing a row of pearly whites, and bites the green pepper you offered.

She swallows the green pepper in a few bites and provocatively arches her eyebrow at you.

"Huh? Since when can you eat green peppers?"

Your curiosity about Wu Qiyi eating a green pepper was piqued, knowing she had tried eating them as a child. Each time, as soon as she put one in her mouth, she would spit it out, and later a doctor deemed it a green pepper allergy.

Wu Qiyi looks straight at you, a firmness in her gaze, "As long as it’s you feeding me, I’ll eat anything."

You smile, changing the subject, "The day after tomorrow, Zongzi and I have to attend a friend’s wedding; are you coming?"

"The day after tomorrow?" Wu Qiyi thinks for a moment, then shakes her head slightly, "I can’t, I have to leave in a bit."

"Where to?"

"To see Grandma. It’ll probably take three or four days," Wu Qiyi smiles and says, "Thinking I have to leave for several days, I made a special trip to see you. Moved, aren’t you?"

"Moved, of course moved! I’m so touched, I might start crying."

At this moment, your conversation feels like that of two good friends.

From an outsider’s perspective, you seem like a couple in the throes of love, chatting away happily, sweet nuances in every word and gesture. As for the two of you, the present situation felt quite odd. To use an old saying, it was "more than friends, less than lovers."

After eating, Wu Qiyi left under the watchful eyes of everyone.

To the students, both you and your supernatural detective society had long become a major topic of casual conversation.

Mention you, and people naturally connect you with your relationships to two goddesses. It was exactly for this reason that countless boys saw you as an enemy.

Just as you, Zong Wangyue, and Jin Qi step out of the school cafeteria and onto a path to the dormitory, six boys block the way.

"Li Muyun, you must give us an explanation today!"

Zong Wangyue turns to look at you and asks, "Boss, do you owe them money?"

You laugh and reply, "What do you think?"

"Doesn’t seem like it," Zong Wangyue says to the leader of the boys, "Hey, what sort of explanation do you guys want?"

"What’s all this pretense?" Another tall and strong-looking boy steps forward, pointing at you, "What’s the meaning of hogging two goddesses to yourself? Are you trying to have the happiness of a man with two wives?"

"I just can’t understand, based on your character and looks, how those two goddesses could possibly be smitten with you. You must’ve used some despicable, disgusting trick!"

Being pointed at and accused by three people would be uncomfortable for anyone. Just as you’re about to speak, Zong Wangyue asks, "Boss, can I beat them up?"

"Fatso, you think you can hit people?" The tall and strong boy sneers coldly, his fists cracking as he clenches them.

You don’t say anything, but your pupils slowly reveal two spinning Sen Luo Curse Marks. For you, violence was not a solution to problems; on the contrary, it would only complicate matters.

Ever since childhood, your mother taught you a principle: when faced with a dilemma or trouble, one must find the fastest, most direct way out of the predicament and solve the issue.

Clearly, words wouldn’t dispel these six, so you had to resort to special measures.

You step forward, addressing the six, "Look into my eyes."

The six, not particularly on guard, all look into your eyes, and right then, the Sen Luo Curse Marks in your pupils start to rotate clockwise. Immediately, Sen Luo Curse Marks appear in the pupils of the six, except theirs rotate counter-clockwise.

"From today on, your aesthetic standards change; ugly women become your goddesses, not beautiful elder sisters."

"Yes."

The six respond in unison.

"Let’s go now, and don’t come within fifty meters of me in the future."

The six nod and walk away.

Zong Wangyue turns to you, his eyes full of stars, an expression of admiration on his face, "Boss, you’re amazing! That move just now resolved the trouble without a trace, and you’ve made a great contribution to us men! On behalf of the girls who look almost as ugly, I offer you my heartfelt thanks!"

"You’ve got time to gab, you should practice Taoism more when you’re home."

"Heh, I’ll pass. My job is to gather information, take orders, catching ghosts isn’t my thing," Zong Wangyue thinks for a moment, then asks, "Boss, was that a secret technique you just used on them?"

Seeing you nod, Zong Wangyue adds, "How long does that secret technique last? A day, or a month?"

You consider and say, "It depends on my mood, the stronger the spell power, the longer it lasts."

"How many years did you put on them just now?"

"About a hundred or so."

Zong Wangyue covers his mouth and bursts into hearty laughter, "Awesome, just awesome! Thinking of them hugging a messed-up ugly girl and kissing, oh! The image is too beautiful, I don’t dare to think any further."

However, you then add, "Actually, I was originally planning to make the six of them get together, three couples, just the right pairing."

Zong Wangyue and Jin Qi cringe at the thought!

Both simultaneously give you a thumbs-up, exclaiming in unison, "Cruel! That’s so cruel!"
