Thinking of this, Chen Bing's eyes began to fill with aggression as she looked at Shang Yunmiao, as if she had been eyeing her prey.
Facing Chen Bing's intense gaze, Shang Yunmiao stood tall and met his gaze without flinching. Her eyes were as resolute as a seasoned soldier's, which further fueled Chen Bing's rebellious spirit.
Hey, you little punk, do you think I can't handle you?
Chen Bing, who was always very bold, put a hand on Shang Yunmiao's shoulder, thinking that she had to teach her disobedient little sister a lesson. She dared to glare at her now that she was only in the first year of junior high school, what would she do after they got married? Would she dare to make her kneel on a washboard?
Although she was a little surprised to be suddenly put on the shoulder, Shang Yunmiao, who had become more perceptive, was not intimidated by such a gesture.
Just like a child pouting and leaning towards another person out of spite, in this contest of courage, whoever backs down first loses. Whoever backs down first has something to hide and is not innocent!
So, pretending to be innocent, Shang Yunmiao leaned against Chen Bing as if it didn't matter, resting her cute little face on the other's shoulder.
How about that! Scared yet?
Chen Bing was not afraid at all. He placed his other free hand on Shang Yunmiao's head, pinched her cute ear, and gently blew a breath into it.
The skin around Shang Yunmiao's ears visibly flushed red; she nearly succumbed to the sudden attack. Fortunately, after bolstering her courage, Shang Yunmiao strengthened her resolve.
Whoever is innocent loses!
"I like you."
!
What did I just hear?
Shang Yunmiao's face was filled with an indescribable expression. She mechanically turned her head to look at Chen Bing's beautiful mouth.
Did that mouth just say "I like you"? Or did I mishear?
Xiao Shang seems to be confused, so kind-hearted Chen Bing decides to explain it again to answer her questions.
"I like you."
ah?
Cocoa Cocoa Cocoa, but this isn't right, is it? Didn't we agree that whoever makes a mistake first loses? How could you say that? Oh, so there's no such rule. I was just making things up, haha...
Shang Yunmiao, who was captivated by the word "like," froze. She stared blankly at Chen Bing, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something but couldn't.
Seeing the girl's reaction, Chen Bing knew her strategy had worked. The girl had been inexplicably excited, and hadn't been shy at all when Chen Bing hugged her. Chen Bing figured if she continued like this, the girl might not answer her questions willingly.
The best strategy is to subdue the enemy without fighting; next is to disrupt their alliances; next is to attack their army; and the worst is to besiege their cities. To achieve his interrogation goals, Chen Bing decided to first disrupt Shang Yunmiao's mindset, and so far, the plan has succeeded.
Taking advantage of her confusion, Chen Bing pinched her cheek with one hand and questioned her in a serious manner: "Tell me, what have you been thinking about these past two days? Why were you so quiet before, and now you're so excited? Tell the truth, and you'll be treated leniently if you confess, and severely if you resist!"
"I, I didn't... I didn't." Caught off guard by the question, Shang Yunmiao waved her hands frantically, trying to deny it. At that moment, she completely forgot about being innocent and having any courage.
"No?" Chen Bing feigned disbelief, then asked, "Then explain why you've been acting so strangely these past two days?"
Because I want to sit next to you!
Of course, this couldn't be said aloud. Otherwise, if Chen Bing found out that he had been brooding over this gourd for several days, he would laugh at him to death.
That incident when I was in fourth grade is something they still occasionally bring up to make fun of me.
As her mind gradually cleared, Shang Yunmiao came to her senses from her previous foolish conclusion that "as long as I consider myself innocent, everything will be fine." Now, all she could think about was how to gloss over the matter.
"Because, because... because I've been in a bad mood these past few days, and I have too much junior high homework. I haven't finished today's yet. Oh well, I'm going home to do my homework."
Chen Bing immediately saw through Shang Yunmiao's act of feigning ignorance, so he hooked his arm around her and grinned mischievously to prevent her from leaving.
"Liar! You've been finishing your homework faster than me these past two days, how could you possibly still have unfinished homework?" After saying this, Chen Bing shook her head, feigning disappointment. "Shang Yunmiao, Shang Yunmiao, I'm truly disappointed in you. You're so young, and you're already so good at lying?"
I remember when you were little, you would tell me everything. Now you have your own little secrets, right?
"I...I..."
After hearing these words, Shang Yunmiao felt very ashamed, but she was not prepared to reveal what she had been thinking about these past two days.
Left with no other option, Chen Bing had to resort to her trump card.
"Speaking of secrets, haven't you been writing love letters lately?"
In that instant, Chen Bing's face was very close. However, Shang Yunmiao was no longer concerned about those things; she was completely absorbed by what the other person was saying.
Love letters...writing love letters...
At this moment, the girl had only one thought in her mind: to leave this place, no, not from here, but from this world...
"YY, are you still online? Come to your senses, you haven't answered my question yet."
Unfortunately, leaving the world isn't something that can be achieved simply by thinking. After her soul floated into the air, she returned to her body because of Chen Bing's call.
"I...I didn't write any love letters. The person who wrote you lots of love letters in elementary school—no, no, it wasn't me!"
"Huh? I haven't even said what kind of love letter it is yet, aren't you just admitting it without being asked?"
Realizing she had said the wrong thing in her panic, Shang Yunmiao immediately covered her mouth with her two small hands, as if afraid that her mouth would talk nonsense again.
"You admit it?"
"He didn't admit it."
"You're still being stubborn, saying you haven't admitted it?" Chen Bing laughed as she pried open Xiao Shang's hand, then pinched her mouth with two fingers, pulling it back and forth as if testing how tough her lips really were.
Now that things had come to this, Shang Yunmiao knew she had been completely silenced by her own words, and nothing she did would make a difference. So she immediately gave up, closed her eyes, tilted her head, and remained unmoved by anything Chen Bing did, as if she had given up all resistance.
Damn it, my feelings for Chen Bing have been exposed, and there's no way to undo it no matter what I do...
She looked so cute and pretty. Chen Bing smiled and tapped her cheek, then said something that brought her back to life: "If you obediently tell me what you've been thinking about these past two days, I'll forget about it."
Shang Yunmiao is dead. If you have any questions, please burn paper money for her.
Please, she's not stupid. She doesn't just tell you what she's been thinking these past few days and forget about the love letter. It's such an obvious scheme to get something for nothing. Do you think Shang Yunmiao would fall for it?
