Chapter 1096: Chapter 47: Why Didn’t You Call ?
No mistake now.
Seeing all the sisters from the Red Lantern Society co to welco people despite their busy schedules, and even the Master of Ten Thousand Transformations personally descending, Li Mumu knew her guess was spot on.
It must be the return of Guiding Bodhisattva, Holy Mother of Red Lotus, Netherworld Angel Anhelica herself to Tiann.
Otherwise, at such a grand occasion, there wouldn’t be room for soone as minor as herself to take a seat.
Speaking of which, what was her Chinese na again?
Li Mumu’s forehead was slightly sweating.
Soone ntioned it, but I forgot!
Sothing like Bai… Bai Zhi! Yes, yes! Anhelica is not her real na; it’s the Latin transliteration of the herb Bai Zhi.
Oh my! The ancestor has returned!
Facing Wang Yunxiao’s questioning gaze, Li Mumu pretended not to notice.
How could one casually talk about such speculations? Deities have the power of foresight; any words spoken, they would surely know. She had deep experience with this when she kept chanting their true nas for help.
It’s one thing to do serious business, but to gossip about her husband behind his back with others? Did you think they couldn’t hear?
Li Mumu wiped her cold sweat while greeting, but the sisters from the Red Lantern Society were expressionless, especially when they saw her standing with Wang Yunxiao, their faces turned even sterner.
The little junior sister had just co back, yet she was hanging out with so wild man; no one could be happy about this.
Only Zuo Yan, hiding at the back, was making silly faces and giggling at Li Mumu.
Even making so very lewd gestures with her hands.
Li Mumu really didn’t want to acknowledge that she knew her.
Looking out to sea, freight ships were clearing the way to the sound of whistles, while a seemingly ordinary cruise was gradually approaching the coast.
The ground beneath their feet vibrated slightly as a plant’s roots burst out with a loud rumble, blooming a vibrant flower bud.
Bai Shanshan erged from the flower, glanced around, and looked up at the sky, frowning involuntarily.
“Why did you all suddenly co back? I sensed your presence and thought you were fighting soone again…”
It was then she noticed Li Mumu at the scene and stopped in surprise.
“What’s going on?”
The scene was very quiet; no one paid her any attention.
“You ca here to catch the northwest wind?”
Bai Shanshan’s gaze finally landed on Yang Qiming: “Yang, why are you here too? What are you all scheming behind my back?”
Yang Qiming smiled helplessly and said, “Big sister is coming back today.”
“Which big sister…?”
Bai Shanshan hadn’t caught on yet but suddenly realized sothing, her neck twisting 180 degrees to look at the cruise slowly approaching from the distant sea.
Then she felt entirely unwell.
“Why didn’t you call ! He Dinghong, you bastard…”
The woman in a bloody dress standing at the front coldly said, “Was it necessary to inform you of such trivial matters?”
“I’ll kill you!”
Seeing Bai Shanshan about to go berserk, Zuo Yan quickly stood out to smooth things over: “Alright, alright, Hehe is just joking with you. We just ca back too; that’s why you only just sensed us, right?”
“How would I know why you’re back? I haven’t even brushed my teeth…”
Bai Shanshan said in a rage: “You expect to et big sister like this? He Dinghong, you have a cruel heart; I’ll rember this grudge!”
“I think you’re fine just as you are now.”
He Dinghong said coldly, “What’s there to hide? Let big sister see how ‘glorious’ you are now.”
“You’re dead at! Wait till later, I’ll settle this with you!”
Bai Shanshan threatened through gritted teeth and turned to leave.
Li Mumu stood in the corner silently munching on the drama.
Family vendetta, huh?
Teacher Bai and those sisters really aren’t on the sa wavelength; no idea what happened in the past.
Her mind wildly batted around wild guesses until Bai Shanshan walked over and stopped beside her, snorting coldly: “What’s with your outfit? How do you usually dress? Now playing innocent, huh? Go change into sothing proper!”
Li Mumu’s smile froze on her face.
Are you crazy? You need to control what I wear? Venting your anger on ?
At this point, Yang Qiming spoke up: “Shanshan, just mind your own business. What we do for our Navy folks doesn’t concern you.”
“You didn’t call either!”
Bai Shanshan exclaid angrily, “None of you are any good! All just want to see make a fool of myself!”
Yang Qiming shrugged and said, “I did call; you didn’t answer.”
Bai Shanshan was bubbling with anger.
If I didn’t answer, couldn’t you leave a ssage?
But to be fair, it was partly her problem.
Her terrible personality had driven her to the point where even cats and dogs avoided her; no one else to bla.
In the end, she left in a huff, carrying her woes with her.
Several minutes later, having changed into a new set of red clothes, Bai Shanshan snuck back just in ti as the cruise ship docked, slinking behind Zuo Yan shafacedly.
Then turned her head to give Li Mumu a fierce glare.
Traitor!
I even sort of treated you as a student, and you didn’t even call !
And you’re siding with Yang!
However, Li Mumu wasn’t a pushover; she could be tolerant to a point, but did they think she was endless? Enough is enough!
I’ve graduated already!
So she linked arms with Wang Yunxiao and stuck her tongue out at Bai Shanshan.
Pshaw, you single old woman!
Bai Shanshan’s temple veins bulged, her fists clenched tighter.
But as passengers stread off the boat, her expression turned solemn.
Or perhaps slightly apprehensive.
Most passengers, under the glow of the Lotus Lamp, quickened their steps across the pier, completely ignoring the strange n and won standing nearby.
Not until everyone had almost left did Li Mumu see three figures lazily disembarking from the ship.
At the front was a young woman in an old dark red dress, holding a child. Though never t them, from Bai Shanshan’s tense body and sharp intake of breath, Li Mumu guessed this must be the fad Miss Bai Zhi, whom she’d freeloaded on countless occasions.
Following behind her were two girls, one in black and one in white.
The girl in black, tall and slender, appeared to be over 175cm, wearing a form-fitting black high-neck coat, looking quite valiant. anwhile, the white-haired girl next to her in sportswear had one hand in her pocket, chewing gum, with two furry pointed ears subtly twitching atop her head.
Looked quite familiar.
Sparking very delicate mories in Li Mumu’s mind.
I think… I once stole their lunch.
Moving closer, Li Mumu finally saw that Miss Bai Zhi was holding a girl about four or five years old.
A chubby round face, timid big eyes, her little body curled up as she clung to Miss Bai Zhi’s neck, just like a tiny dumpling, extrely adorable.
