The kitten looked puzzled, feeling as if it hadn't been hurt at all.

"So that's why you weren't going out for a hot spring. You were fighting here? Yuan Xiao, do you think you're so high and mighty? I was just a moment away from you and you were going to bite Miya to death?"

Su Che's voice was filled with anger, and his tone was stern:

"I always thought you were the easiest person for me to worry about. You were always so well-behaved at home and outside, but look at what you've done today! Are you even awake?"

As he spoke, he walked straight over, and while Yuan Xiao was still in a daze, he stretched out his arms and pulled her out of the pool!

He tucked her under his right arm like a kitten and turned to walk into a room.

"I was wrong, A-Che, please don't hit me, I was wrong, I shouldn't have bullied Miya, I shouldn't have tried to kill her, please don't hit me... please don't hit me...!"

The begging voice came from the little bird's beak, sounding like it was really afraid of being beaten.

Su Che sneered, "Wrong? After killing someone and breaking the law, you get arrested by Uncle Hat, and you think you can just leave by saying you were wrong?"

"Waaah... I really didn't mean to, I just got excited, I didn't really mean it..."

"I don't care if you really want this or not, you're not getting away with this beating tonight. Look at the red marks on Miya's body, do you think there's any credibility in what you're saying?"

"Waaah... I... I... I was just upset! I just wanted to teach her a little lesson, I felt like she bullied me... I really didn't mean to scratch her!"

"Fine, you taught her a lesson, so I'll teach you one too. Your motives are very questionable. I've said it before, don't fight in public. If there's a problem, we can sit down and talk it out. But look at what you've done!"

Since you can't sit down and talk, I'm not really keen on sitting down to resolve the issue either. Prepare yourself.

Su Che quickened his pace, taking three steps at a time, leaving a trail of wind behind him, showing no intention of stopping.

Yuan Xiao covered her face, realizing she was in trouble, and cried out for help repeatedly, "Sister, save me! Save me!"

Gu Zhi watched the show from the sidelines: "Okay, I'll come after your atonement is over."

"Sister! You're not my real sister!"

"Yes, indeed."

Gu Zhi smiled and nodded.

"..."

An Qing didn't say anything, but simply felt that Yuan Xiao's behavior tonight was a bit too strange.

Doesn't she know that Cheche is soaking in the hot spring next door?

Taking such a huge risk to do this... could it be...?

Thinking of this, her cat-like eyes widened, and she suddenly recalled the "bet" she had made with the little bird—

Let's see whose wish gets fulfilled first.

To be honest, my wish was fulfilled some time ago.

Whether it was a date alone or sleeping alone, on the day of the photoshoot, both goals were achieved, leaving no regrets.

If I had to say something, the only thing left to be resolved is the "female lead" casting.

But I am already content and will not ask for too much.

Yuan Xiao's wish seems to have remained unfulfilled to this day.

Does this mean that the "ancient Buddha" is useless?

【impossible. 】

[It's impossible that it only works for me and not for her.]

[I bought the offerings together, and prayed together; either all of them were useful, or none of them were. There's no favoritism involved, right?]

Before I could think any further,

A loud cracking sound rang out!

It broke the girl's train of thought.

Su Che led Yuan Xiao into a small, dark room that wasn't very soundproof, and then locked the door from the inside.

……

……

Chapter 176 The Girl's Comeback! A Benefactor! Soaring to New Heights!

90 minutes passed.

No one knows what happened in the dark room.

But hearing those extremely fierce sounds, the women knew that Yuan Xiao seemed to have gotten what he wanted.

Tonight's team building activity was quite successful for some people. Yuan Xiao was unable to participate in the subsequent buffet dinner, citing feeling unwell and needing to go to bed early.

Yu tide was in a bad mood and became withdrawn, so she didn't come.

Xiao Xiao got addicted to soaking in the hot springs and said she was on a diet that night, so she didn't dare to eat any late-night snacks.

In the end, only Su Che, Gu Zhi, An Qing, and Miya came to the rooftop buffet area and sat around a round table to enjoy their meal.

"Cheche, you didn't do anything to Yuan Xiao, did you...?"

"Yeah, nothing much, just got beaten up."

With a stern face, Su Che picked up a piece of Wagyu beef with his fork and brought it to his mouth.

"You beat him up?"

An Qing asked thoughtfully, "Did she cry?"

“He cried, he cried very loudly, and said that he realized his mistake and would apologize to Miya properly later.”

"Well."

Hearing this, Miya put down the salmon piece in her hand and shook her head: "I don't need her to apologize."

"why?"

Su Che glanced at the kitten's neck. "She scratched you."

"It doesn't hurt."

Miya said, "Besides, I owe her."

The kitten pursed its lips, seemingly acknowledging the "crime" it had committed.

"...What do you owe her?"

Su Che felt that she seemed to have a tendency to take the blame upon herself, and needed positive guidance to help her overcome this mindset.

“I stole her master.”

"Ok?"

“She’s angry because I took her place. She’s afraid of me, so she grabbed me. I can accept that fear.”

When Miya spoke, her little face was serious, and there was no sign of her being insincere.

Is that so?

"Yes, maybe it was a mistake for me to come to a cat-owning home in the first place."

"If everyone hates me, would you give me back to your sister?" (Cat owner)

She asked the key question.

Su Che frowned upon hearing this. "Of course not."

"why?"

"Because any cat I bring home has no chance of escaping. Once it's here, it's mine, and I'll naturally take full responsibility for it."

Su Che stopped using his knife and fork and emphasized,

"Furthermore, it's normal for cats to have conflicts. It's not a matter of whose fault it is, but rather that I didn't guide them properly."

Now, Yuan Xiao has been reconciled with me, and she won't have any more conflicts with you, so you don't need to worry about it anymore. Okay?

"Oh…"

Miya nodded hesitantly and said no more.

Gu Zhi watched the whole thing with a cold eye from one side.

She couldn't possibly be unaware of her sister's feelings. Miya had been used as a pawn this time, a way of repaying the debt she owed for dominating the emotional aspect.

Yuan Xiao got what she wanted, so she stopped crying and making a fuss. The effect of the ancient Buddha was successfully achieved, and her needs should be met for the time being.

Stealing a glance at Su Che,

Seeing that he was still eating silently with a straight face,

But the smile hidden at the corner of his mouth actually gave him away; he had most likely done something behind the scenes with his sister.

[Using education as an opportunity to give a ruthless reward? Brother Che, you cunning fellow...]

Now, Gu Zhi understood why her sister got along so well with Su Che.

Because he really spoils his younger sister whenever she acts spoiled.

They spoiled her and took care of her relentlessly.

It was also kept very private.

Forget it. I shouldn't envy her; her tastes are the opposite of mine. She likes excitement, I like hearty meals.

In Gu Zhi's eyes, her younger sister's quirks were "minor" issues.

Only then can one truly be considered to "eat meat to one's heart's content".

These are completely different concepts, and the relationship and progress of the needs are on completely different levels.

Today's little incident has come to an end. After dinner, the real competition is about who gets to sleep next to him.

At the dining table, Gu Zhi sat with him on one side, while An Qing and Miya sat on the other side.

Taking advantage of her advantageous location, Gu Zhi stepped on someone's foot, but her gaze was fixed on the creamy mushroom pasta in front of her.

Su Che noticed something, glanced at her sideways, and lifted his foot.
