"Sister, you're back."
"..."
Zhong Yan's gaze fell on her with a hint of scrutiny. No wonder she was no match for her in her past life. Look how quickly her tone and manner of speaking changed.
Bai Zhixuan couldn't help but shiver. Why was she looking at her like that? Could it be that she had overheard what she just said? Even so, she wasn't afraid.
That idiot doesn't like ghost-catching at all, what does she have to worry about?
"Sister, why didn't you tell me you were coming home early? You always waited until dark to come back before you arrived, and you even said you didn't like watching Grandma fiddling with those things..."
"Enough." Zhong Yan interrupted her, her brows furrowed with coldness: "Bai Zhixuan, are you deaf at such a young age? Didn't you hear what I just said? I said, who told you I didn't want to learn the Zhong family's ghost-catching technique?"
"What do you mean?" Bai Zhixuan was taken aback, her brows furrowing slightly, her face full of complicated emotions. "Sister, you told me this yourself before. Otherwise, I wouldn't have told Grandma like this. Are you planning to deny everything before? Wouldn't that make me seem like I'm spreading rumors? Grandma, am I that kind of person?"
"Grandma, I want to learn the art of exorcising ghosts, the art of exorcising ghosts in our family." Zhong Yan took a step forward and said, word by word, "As the 187th generation successor of the Zhong family, who is more suitable than me?"
His words carried a certain air of self-assurance.
From the moment she entered, Zhong Qin's gaze fell on her, her eyes filled with a hint of doubt: "Little one? Have you thought this through? Learning the Zhong family's magic is very hard work."
Zhong Yan's thin lips pursed slightly. How much harder could it be? Compared to her previous life, she hoped that in this life she could firmly control her own destiny and hold everything in her own hands.
“Grandma! My sister must be joking. She has never learned anything since she was a child. She has never even turned a few pages of a scripture. How could she possibly learn it now? Besides, she herself said that she has no talent at all.”
"Shut up, nobody's talking to you." Zhong Yan made no attempt to hide her disgust: "Bai Zhixuan, don't try to provoke me, or you'll pay a price you can't afford."
Originally, she had considered dealing with her ahead of time.
Now, she wants her to live, and then slowly lose what she values most.
Bai Zhixuan's heart sank slightly. She finally realized that Zhong Yan was acting very strangely today. Why would she say such a thing out of the blue? Could it be that she had done something wrong and made Zhong Yan suspicious?
wrong.
To make things easier, she deliberately got into a better school so that she could stay away from her. As such, Zhong Yan couldn't possibly have noticed anything.
"Sister, did I offend you in some way? I was just telling the truth. If you hate me, just tell me and I'll leave."
"Then leave!" Zhong Yan parted her thin lips slightly, a half-smile on her face: "Bai Zhixuan, if you leave now, I might look at you with more respect. Go, go, go, hurry up and leave, don't get in my way here."
"Grandma..." Bai Zhixuan's eyes were slightly red, as if tears would fall at any moment. She looked pitiful, as if Zhong Yan had bullied her and made her very sad.
"Enough!" Zhong Qin frowned, her expression grim. "Zhong Yan, what are you really thinking?"
