Chapter 85: Chapter 085 Dabai is a Big Bastard 5

Peng Shasha felt stars twinkling in her eyes from the hit, covering her face in pain. Hearing Ma Yiqing’s words, her eyes bulged even wider!

No... it wasn’t her doing!

Why shift the blame onto her?

"Sister Yiqing, you’re shirking responsibility! Clearly, this was all you..." Before she could finish, a tall boy covered Shasha’s mouth and dragged her away from the scene.

Ma Yiqing elegantly smoothed her hair, apologetically saying, "Xixi, as you can see, this was all a misunderstanding..."

Ning Xixi smiled serenely, "It’s okay, Yiqing. Youran is my good friend. I’ll be counting on your care in the future."

"Hey, what are you saying? Aren’t we as close as sisters!" Ma Yiqing laughed hypocritically, hooking arms with Ning Xixi.

Ning Xixi withdrew her arm discreetly, unwilling to play along with her pretense.

But... this issue couldn’t be left at that.

She blinked and said, "Since it’s Shasha who bullied Youran, then this meal’s expenses..."

"Of course, Shasha will pay!" Ma Yiqing declared decisively.

"Then I won’t be polite with her." Ning Xixi put the card away as if it were nothing, "I’ll take Youran and leave now, see you."

"Bye-bye, darling, let’s go shopping when we’re free." Ma Yiqing’s smile shone brighter than flowers while Ning Xixi just gave a slight smile, neither accepting nor declining.

Once the two had left, the others began to talk—

"Sister Yiqing, wasn’t Ning Xixi too much?"

"Talking about not being polite! Why act all generous but not settle the bill?"

Ma Yiqing coldly commanded, "All of you, shut up!"

They fell silent, disgruntled.

Ma Yiqing’s expression darkened, Ning Xixi, just you wait!

...

"Xixi, thank you so much. I really wouldn’t know what to do without you." Once they left the hotel, Cheng Youran hugged Ning Xixi, sobbing.

"There there, don’t cry." Ning Xixi patted her head to comfort her, "Actually, you should have called Qiaoqiao. Let Qiaoqiao come and beat them up!"

Cheng Youran chuckled, "Right, why didn’t I think of that..." She started rubbing her eyes again as she laughed.

How fortunate she was to have a friend like Ning Xixi.

Ning Xixi felt helpless, "I was trying to cheer you up, not make you cry. How about this, I’ll take you to your favorite comic book store! Sound good?"

"Yeah!"

The two headed to a 24-hour comic book store, ordered snacks and a private room, lying on the soft sofa, reading comics, and playfully horsing around, oblivious to the passage of time...

The clock struck ten o’clock sharp.

At the Ji Family home.

Ji Yebai sat on the living room sofa, his face grave.

The concert had ended an hour ago, yet Ning Xixi still hadn’t returned...

It was so late; what could she and Gong Xiu be doing...

Shit!

The phone suddenly rang. It was Xiao Xichen calling, his voice light and teasing, "Brother Ji, Miankong Bar, you in for some fun?"

He was about to refuse, but then...

"Wait for me."
