Chapter 91
The children ran downstairs quickly, with Ji Fengxue trailing behind. As she passed her own front door, she suddenly stopped, glanced at the empty living room, and walked in.
The living room, kitchen, bathroom, and study were all empty. Xia Linxia didn't dare to enter Fang Xingyan's room, so there was only one place left.
She stood at the door of her bedroom. It was empty.
Holding her breath behind the door, Xia Linxia didn't dare to move, like a turtle. When she heard Ji Fengxue turn around, she finally relaxed, but Ji Fengxue suddenly appeared in her line of sight.
She almost cried out, quickly covering her mouth. She looked at Ji Fengxue with pleading eyes, hoping she would let her off the hook. She whispered, "Can you pretend you didn't see me?"
"No," Ji Fengxue blocked her in the doorway. "Unless..."
Xia Linxia waited for the condition.
"If you cover my mouth, I can't call anyone," Ji Fengxue said with a completely innocent expression.
"Sister Fengxue, where are you? Have you seen anyone?" Shengsheng shouted loudly from the first floor.
A hint of cunning flashed in Ji Fengxue's eyes. She parted her red lips and turned to reply, but a hand covered her mouth.
She didn't panic at all. She tickled Xia Linxia's waist. The other party endured the itch and let go to push her, but Ji Fengxue pinned her hands.
"Who told you to run away and leave me?"
In the narrow space, Ji Fengxue fiercely covered Xia Linxia's lips, licking and biting, intentionally or unintentionally caressing her neck.
"Mmm..." Xia Linxia wanted to escape, but her body felt soft and itchy, making her numb. As she pushed away, she couldn't help but let out soft whimpers.
The children ran upstairs again, their conversation clearly audible: "Why is Sister Fengxue gone too? Are they hiding again?"
"Let's go check Teacher Fang's house," another child suggested.
Xia Linxia's eyes widened. She rubbed against Ji Fengxue, signaling her to let go quickly. If the children came in, it would be too embarrassing.
Unexpectedly, Ji Fengxue ignored her and pressed even closer, the two of them almost touching.
Xia Linxia's face flushed red.
This really felt like an affair.
The children ran to the door. One of them said, "Huh? Teacher Fang, where did you come back from?"
Fang Xingyan stood outside the main door. "I went to buy some groceries."
"Mmm!" Xia Linxia's eyes widened even further. The main door wasn't closed, and the bedroom door next to it was half-open. It was too convenient for them to be caught.
She panicked, the corners of her eyes starting to turn red with a hint of tears. She struggled violently twice but couldn't break free.
Wuwu, Ji Fengxue, you damn woman!
As she struggled, she bumped the door, and everyone at the door heard the commotion.
Shengsheng exclaimed with joy, "They're hiding here!"
Several children rushed in. Just as they reached the doorway, Ji Fengxue suddenly poked her head out and said calmly, "Why are you all here? I just wanted to change my clothes, and Xiaxia ran downstairs."
"Let's go downstairs and catch them!" The children didn't hesitate and turned to run.
This lie could fool the children, but not the old fox. Fang Xingyan placed the groceries and fruits she had just bought on the table, gave Ji Fengxue a disgusted look, turned, and went out, closing the door.
"Ji Fengxue!" Xia Linxia finally emerged from behind the door, looking like she had been severely bullied. She pointed at Ji Fengxue and cursed, "You pig!!!"
"Keep talking," Ji Fengxue stood in front of her, smiling leisurely.
Xia Linxia slowly lowered her finger. Her current situation was very precarious. She was living under someone else's roof, dependent on others, like a lamb entering a tiger's den, caught between ice and fire. If she wasn't careful, she would become a fallen woman!
"I'm not playing with you anymore, hmph!" Xia Linxia snorted through her nose and stomped out of the door, sitting on the sofa in a state of post-coital clarity.
A while later, Fang Xingyan returned from a walk, knocking on the door before entering. Xia Linxia opened the door and quickly asked, "Auntie, where did you just go?"
Just now—she suddenly covered her mouth, as if she had let something slip!
"It's nothing, I was just telling Shengsheng and the others that you flew to the sky to become Chang'e," Fang Xingyan said.
Xia Linxia was amused by her. After spending the morning together, she was no longer as nervous around Fang Xingyan. It was just a different version of Ji Fengxue; she could handle it!
"Auntie, please come in quickly. It's quite cold outside." She quickly went to pour a cup of hot water. "Auntie, have some water."
Fang Xingyan took the cup and chuckled, "This makes it seem like I'm the guest."
Xia Linxia sat next to her, placing her legs on her knees, as well-behaved as a lucky cat. "Auntie, let me chat with you."
Ji Fengxue was preparing lunch in the kitchen. Seeing that they were chatting well, she walked to the doorway and listened. She happened to hear Xia Linxia ask, "Auntie, why don't you hit Sister Ji when she's so disobedient?"
Ji Fengxue almost stomped on her toes with the knife in her hand.
Fang Xingyan, however, felt like she had found a kindred spirit. "Do you think I don't want to? I guess my intentions were too obvious before, so she went and signed up for a taekwondo class. She can break a board with one kick. Then, her dad and I didn't dare to lay a hand on her."
Xia Linxia: "..." Damn it, no wonder she has so much energy!
Ji Fengxue didn't want to hear them talk about how they dealt with her anymore. Their family relationship was repeatedly teetering on the brink of collapse.
After lunch, Ji Fengxue took Xia Linxia for a walk to aid digestion and to sightsee. The place they were staying was the school, with a serene environment. Now that it was winter break, except for the faculty buildings, other areas were very quiet.
Xia Linxia refused to let Ji Fengxue hold her hand, maintaining a proud and aloof distance of three meters, as if she wanted to stick four words on her forehead: "I'm angry."
Ji Fengxue extended her right hand and said softly, "Come here, let me coax you."
Xia Linxia tilted her head up, her lips pouting to the sky. After a while, she asked, "How are you going to coax me?"
Ji Fengxue took a piece of chocolate from her pocket. "Today's candy."
Xia Linxia's eyes lit up. She quickly snatched the chocolate, put it in her mouth, and her mood improved significantly. She asked in surprise, "Is this Doraemon's pocket? Pocket, pocket, I want a villa."
"I'll trade my life for it."
"Hmph, no," Xia Linxia considered herself a mature adult and wouldn't really argue with her. She let the matter go and then casually asked, "Why didn't you apply to this school? It would be so convenient."
"Because it was boring," Ji Fengxue looked up at the sky. "Since I was young, everyone around me thought I should inherit my parents' genes, become a scholar, marry someone of equal standing, and live a peaceful life."
Xia Linxia nodded. In this regard, she was a bit like Ji Fengxue; both chose a more difficult but brighter path to escape their predetermined lives.
"That's good. If you didn't act, how would you have met this peerless beauty like me?" Xia Linxia couldn't help but sigh.
Ji Fengxue was amused.
Before long, they walked out of the school gate and along the street. Unknowingly, they arrived at a place selling Spring Festival couplets and lanterns. The two rows of bright red goods were exceptionally festive. Xia Linxia pulled her around, buying many small items.
As they walked from one end to the other, they noticed a crowd gathered ahead. Ji Fengxue pulled her to the side to avoid them, but a camera suddenly blocked their path.
"Hello, we are from the local TV station's civil news program. May we have a brief interview with you?" a middle-aged male reporter asked, holding a microphone.
The two looked at each other. They were both wearing masks, and they didn't know if the reporter recognized them.
"We'll only ask a few questions. We mainly want to interview citizens about their ecological lifestyle. We definitely won't ask personal questions," the reporter repeatedly assured them. He had noticed two tall girls not far away since earlier. Although they were wearing masks, they were particularly conspicuous in the crowd.
Since it was a livelihood issue, there was nothing to refuse, and both agreed.
Reporter: "Hello, can you tell us your surnames? So we can register."
"My surname is Xia," Xia Linxia said, then pointed to Ji Fengxue. "Her surname is Ji."
"Okay, Miss Xia, Miss Ji, we will conduct a happiness index survey. Do you feel you were happy last year?"
Both nodded simultaneously: "Yes."
The reporter asked again: "Several vegetable markets were renovated last year. Which vegetable market do you usually go to buy groceries? And why?"
Xia Linxia looked at Ji Fengxue. Ji Fengxue had the right to speak on this matter. "I've been to all of them. It mainly depends on what I need. The vegetables at the East Gate market are fresher, the seafood at the North Gate market is good, and the prices at the South Gate are cheaper. The bosses are also enthusiastic and occasionally give away green onions or chili peppers. I usually go to the South Gate because I'm familiar with it."
The reporter was satisfied with this answer and turned the microphone to the girl next to her. "Okay, last question. Many citizens have suggested organizing a collective fireworks display. What do you think, Miss Xia?"
"Then I'll definitely look up at the sky," Xia Linxia blurted out. "Fireworks are so beautiful."
The reporter froze for a few seconds, unable to respond, experiencing a career Waterloo.
Ji Fengxue lowered her head and chuckled, putting her arm around Xia Linxia's shoulder and asking, "Are there any more questions?"
The reporter quickly said, "No more, thank you for your cooperation. We wish you a happy life."
"Thank you."
Half an hour later, this interview was broadcast on the local TV station. Occasionally, a few young people watched it with their families and suddenly spotted a highlight.
Word spread quickly, and soon, the interview video was clipped by netizens and posted online. In the video, the two were earnestly answering questions, each holding several red plastic bags. The subtitle bar below them introduced them—
Citizen Miss Xia, Citizen Miss Ji.
