Chapter 53: Chapter 53 Oh no, it broke accidentally Chapter 53: Chapter 53 Oh no, it broke accidentally When he tried to lift it, he found that beyond the pain, there was no other sensation.
His hand!
The hand he used for reading and writing, the hand that would one day take control of everything, how could this be, how was this possible!
He looked at Bai Zhi with rage blazing in his eyes, along with an unending torrent of hatred that would never cease…
“Oh dear, I’m sorry, it just broke accidentally.”
Bai Zhi blinked her eyes as if she were truly perplexed. She placed her finger on the corner of her mouth, pouting in dissatisfaction as she spoke.
“I really wasn’t using much strength. How did your hand break so easily, like a pair of chopsticks? Here, let me take a look!”
Bai Zhi swiftly picked up Bai Yu’s hand?
“Ah, let me go, let me go!”
This Bai Zhi was just insane; why did she have such strength…
The next moment, he had no energy left to think.
Because no matter what he did, he could not regain control over his fingers; his hand just dangled there, powerless.
“Bai Zhi, you…”
Just as Bai Yu was about to fight desperately with Bai Zhi, Bai Zhi’s smile widened, looking even more terrifying.
Her hands were clasped together, fingers moving. Her palms were unsightly, but her fingers were long and graceful, moving now like waves, quite beautiful.
“What, would you like me to ‘accidentally’ bump into your other hand too?”
Bai Zhi’s eyes sparkled, seemingly excited by the suggestion.
Seeing Bai Yu being bullied, the group pet stopped crying as well. She stood up bravely in front of Bai Yu, with a determination as if ready to die a noble death.
It’s really, quite touching, isn’t it?
Not really, for she kept stepping back.
Truly a mismatch between actions and words.
Is this the heroine? Bai Zhi doubted the author’s values more than once, wondering if it was just for thrills, where the heroine could do no wrong and everyone loved her no matter what?
As for Bai Yu, Bai Zhi considered the emotion in his eyes.
Perhaps because he was an important male character, he trusted the heroine a lot. In Bai Zhi’s view, if Ye Xiu could realize certain things, why couldn’t he, who was supposedly intelligent?
Or was there something she was overlooking?
But no matter, their deadly feud was already sealed, the kind that could never be undone. She quite liked Bai Yu as he was, ready to take action when necessary.
“Sister, if you really hate me that much, then break my hand; don’t hurt my brother. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have come into this family. It’s me, causing discord between you and your siblings… It’s all my fault…”
The group pet lowered her eyes.
But,
but she truly, truly loved this family.
She wanted to catch hold of this bit of warmth.
Because of dad and mom, and her brothers.
She was willing to believe once again in the warmth of family, to believe that someone still loved her. She was just too afraid, afraid of being alone, afraid of loneliness.
But, unexpectedly, it was because of this that she made her sister suffer.
“I just, just wanted a home. Sister, my dad didn’t want me anymore, I didn’t have a home anymore, I was so scared and lost, I didn’t know what to do.
It was dad who brought me home; it was you all who gave me warmth. I wanted to hold on, to hold on to such warmth; I just wanted to be part of your family!”
The group pet’s near-desperate roar echoed, like a small animal wailing in its final struggle.
Bai Yu felt immense pity, Xixi was so good, so obedient; tears poured from his eyes in empathy. He could even feel Xixi’s sorrow and confusion at that moment.
Bai Zhi listened with a headache, hearing such words too much could become tiresome.
You don’t have a home, so you feel entitled to take someone else’s.
“You think you can just snatch away the only warmth someone has because you want it?
Just because you want it, everyone has to like you? And if they don’t, they’re the odd ones out, the ones in the wrong?
It’s all his… mom’s, what twisted logic!
“Have you said enough?”
Bai Zhi watched their sibling affection with impatience. Even Bai Fei and the others looked at them like they were crazy. Running over here crying and squatting, what was that all about? If it’s nothing, can’t you just not block the way?
Besides Bai Yu the oddball, who would listen to this?
Everyone has their own things to do, so what if Dad’s not home?
A lot of people in the village have fathers who aren’t home because they need to earn money, because they need to live.
“You…”
The group pet lifted its head and was surprised by the impatience in Bai Zhi’s eyes, sobbing spasmodically, looking so pitiful.
“I’ve already told you, stay away from me, have you no ears to understand? Who else has nothing better to do than to sit around blaming heaven and earth?
Can crying solve anything?
If you want to ask me for something, just say it!”
Such a waste of time, a waste of expressions. They obviously wanted to ask her for something, and yet they had to speak of their grievances first, to earn a tearful sympathy?
But they had no time to watch their performance.
“What a hassle!”
Bai Zhi really was out of patience, and with one move, she picked up the group pet as if picking up a chick. Moving it to the side, she grabbed Bai Yu’s hand…
“Ah!” Bai Yu screamed loudly…
“Click”
In the blink of an eye, Bai Zhi had clicked his hand back into place?
Bai Zhi waved her hand indifferently, looking disdainfully at Bai Yu.
“There, good as new, a grown man screaming like that, what a scaredy-cat.”
Bai Yu looked at his hand. It still hurt, but when he moved it, his fingers responded.
Finally, he had regained control of his fingers, but he would never thank Bai Zhi. If it hadn’t been for her, how could he have felt such prolonged despair?
So, he continued to glare at Bai Zhi fiercely, feeling that she had no remorse whatsoever.
“I originally, wanted to let you come back. We forgave you, willing to accept you, but now, it’s impossible for me to let you return.”
Bai Yu looked coldly at Bai Zhi, dropping a harsh line.
“Ha?”
Bai Zhi’s lips twitched. Was there something wrong with this person’s brain?
Bai Zhi felt frustrated because she realized something: these female and male leads… they’re particularly prone to delusions and are so arrogant, thinking everyone should act according to their wishes or script?
“Sister, if you’re willing to fix brother’s hand, does that mean you realize your mistake?”
The group pet also joined in the excitement, it stopped crying and feeling guilty, instead looking at Bai Zhi with relief.
“Sister, if you really mind me being at home, I can leave.”
Once again, sadness engulfed the group pet. It was a painful struggle, as if making a huge decision.
“As long as you’re willing to come home, I can leave.”
“No way!”
Bai Yu roared vehemently, pulling on the group pet’s hand tightly.
“Xixi can’t leave. We’re a family, without you we’ll never accept Bai Zhi, Bai Zhi your wishful thinking!”
Bai Zhi felt that this was probably a brain-dead story.
