Chapter 19 Anger
When they returned to Fairy Pavilion, the sisters surrounded Qing'er, asking her all sorts of questions, which Qing'er answered one by one, and then told her about her plan.
"Fifth Sister, you're so smart!" Lan'er looked at Qing'er with envy, her eyes sparkling with admiration.
"Fifth Sister, you're truly amazing! Your mind works so well!" Greenie gave Greenie a thumbs up and praised her sincerely.
“Yes, yes,” the other sisters echoed.
"Of course! I'm the smartest person in the entire Heavenly Court." Qing'er put her hands on her hips, looking very proud.
"Yes, yes, you're the smartest." Green rolled her eyes, pinched her cheek, and said that she was really out of breath when she was called fat.
Everyone laughed.
Cheng'er suddenly thought of Zi'er, "Seriously, are we just going to leave Seventh Sister like this?" They've been together since they were little, playing and having fun together for so many years. Now that Seventh Sister is gone, it just doesn't feel right.
"Second sister, what's the big deal? Isn't this great? We no longer have to worry about Seventh Sister being discovered and brought back one day. Seventh Sister can be with Dong Yong in peace now." Greenie shrugged indifferently.
Lan'er nodded, "Yes, Second Sister. Seventh Sister and Dong Yong are deeply in love. It's unrealistic to expect Seventh Sister to come back. Let her live a good life in the mortal world." They knew that Second Sister wanted Seventh Sister to come back and be with everyone, and everyone wanted that too, but they respected Seventh Sister's choice.
"But..." Cheng'er wanted to say something more.
Huang'er interrupted her, "Second sister, no buts. Let's think about how to make life better for seventh sister in the mortal world." She remembered Dong Yong's poor family and how seventh sister suffered because of them.
Hong'er chimed in, "Third Sister is right. Let's stop worrying about whether Seventh Sister is coming back or not. We have to do something for Seventh Sister."
Everyone was lost in their own thoughts. Only Qing'er sat there, happily munching on a spiritual fruit, which had been cultivated within the space inside her body. It was undeniably sweet.
"Click, click"
Hearing these sounds, the other sisters all looked at Qing'er and were speechless. Everyone was racking their brains to come up with a solution, while she was just eating and eating by herself.
"Fifth Sister, can't you help me think of something?" Huang'er glared at Qing'er.
"Fifth Sister, you're so smart, just think about it." Greenie stepped forward and took Greenie's hand. Greenie swallowed the spiritual fruit in her mouth, waved her hand and said, "Life is what you make of it, and how you live it is your own choice. Others can help you for a while, but not forever."
"You...don't you have a heart? She's our own sister, what's wrong with helping her?" Huang'er said angrily.
Retorted by Huang'er's words, Qing'er also lost her temper. "How am I heartless? If I were heartless, Seventh Sister would have been caught and punished long ago. If she weren't my own sister, would I care about these trivial matters? Wouldn't it be better to cultivate in seclusion? Or to accumulate merit? Since Seventh Sister chose to descend to the mortal realm and live with Dong Yong, she should be prepared to endure hardship. Can we protect her for a lifetime if we help her for a while? Besides, she's a fairy, doesn't she have a brain? Can't she even think about living a better life? She's just being stubborn." I don't know what she's thinking, or maybe she's just living too comfortably and has too much free time.
Hearing Qing'er's words, the sisters fell silent. Seeing their silence, Qing'er felt listless. "What a mess, every single day." With that, she turned and left.
