The Female Villain Lost Her Memory After Rebirth

Chapter 222

Liu Lingxiao smiled and hooked her arm around Xu Yan's neck, leaning lazily against him. "Little one, come, let your sister take you to get some yummy food."

Xu Yan blinked her eyes. "Sister, you're so pretty."

Ye Jin: "..." So he was surplus to requirements?

Thankfully, Liu Lingxiao still had a little conscience. She pinched Xu Yan's cheeks. "Little one, do you like him?"

Xu Yan's little face turned red. "I do."

Ye Jin snorted, "Hmph!"

Liu Lingxiao glanced at Ye Jin dismissively. "What's it to you? Go cook!"

With that, she didn't wait for Ye Jin's reaction but hooked her arm around Xu Yan and sat down in the lobby downstairs.

Xu Yan suddenly remembered a very serious issue and whispered slyly, "Sister, is... Ye Jin a white wolf?"

Liu Lingxiao's expression remained casual. "Yes, he's the last white wolf king."

Xu Yan's expression grew increasingly admiring. "Wow! That's awesome! Is sister one too?"

Liu Lingxiao's voice sounded a little lazy. "Me? I'm a fox."

Xu Yan was instantly shocked. "Wow! So cool!"

Ye Jin came over carrying a plate of cookies and set it down in front of the two girls, asking gruffly, "What do you want to eat?"

Xu Yan raised her hand, but before she could speak, Ye Jin said, "Yan Yan, I know what you want. I'm asking her."

Liu Lingxiao's expression didn't change. "Chicken will do."

Xu Yan blinked in confusion. "Sister, you're thousands of years old, so how old is Ye Jin?"

Liu Lingxiao propped her chin and thought for a moment. "He's probably over a thousand years old too. I found him in an abandoned temple when he was just a newborn wolf pup."

Xu Yan looked admiring. "That's so awesome, I want to become a supernatural being too."

Liu Lingxiao sensed a slight hint of something amiss. "Little one, aren't you scared at all? And supernatural beings, don't you have even the slightest doubt?"

Xu Yan looked innocently. "But there are supernatural beings in this world, right? When I was little, my mom always said that the supernatural beings would come and take me away."

The main thing was... she had always felt that supernatural beings were secretly protecting her. Although now it seemed that it was probably Ye Jin secretly protecting her all along. So no matter what happened, she was always safe.

Liu Lingxiao: "...Don't you think she was just trying to scare you? Hasn't anyone ever told you that there are no supernatural beings in this world before?"

Xu Yan pondered. "My brother said there were no supernatural beings in this world, but then my mom beat him up afterwards."

Liu Lingxiao didn't give up. "What about your friends?"

Xu Yan looked disdainful. "I don't have any good friends to play with. I think my classmates are all so childish, I don't want to play with them."

Liu Lingxiao nodded. "I see."

Truly an innocent, naive, and gullible little girl.

Xu Yan tried to salvage her image. "Sister, I... I used to think there were no supernatural beings in this world, but then I met Ye Jin and you..."

Liu Lingxiao's expression was full of doubt, but she was still polite verbally. "Mm, I know."

Xu Yan: "..."

Did she really look that gullible?

Ye Jin poked his head out from the kitchen. "We're out of chicken, should I make something else this afternoon?"

Liu Lingxiao glanced at him, then silently eyed the two trembling parrots. "Then let's boil those two pests."

Ye Jin couldn't be bothered to respond to her, and Xu Yan was a bit shocked too.

She seemed to understand now why even the parrots were so afraid of Liu Lingxiao's clothes.

She raised her hand weakly. "Sister, let's order takeout instead."

Liu Lingxiao ruffled Xu Yan's hair casually. "Do you like these two parrots?"

Xu Yan nodded obediently. "They play with me."

Liu Lingxiao took out her phone. "Alright then, we won't eat them. Let's order fried chicken. What do you want?"

Xu Yan licked her lips. "Chicken nuggets!"

Liu Lingxiao pondered. "Alright, I'll order all the individual items then."

Xu Yan hesitated a little. "But Ye Jin doesn't like fried chicken. What if we can't finish it all by ourselves?"

Liu Lingxiao didn't change her expression. "Don't worry, trust us."

Xu Yan cupped her face and waited obediently. After a while, she suddenly asked, "Sister, were you watching cartoons just now?"

Liu Lingxiao flatly denied it. "No, I wasn't."

Xu Yan took a sip of her drink, her black and white eyes just looking at Liu Lingxiao.

She hadn't said anything, but it was as if she had said everything.

For the first time, Liu Lingxiao felt that Xu Yan was as mischievous as Ye Jin. "Yes, yes! So what if I was watching cartoons?"

Xu Yan giggled. "Nothing, sister, do you have the full DVD collection of Doraemon?"

Liu Lingxiao gave Xu Yan a meaningful look. "You want to watch too? Just go to my room and find it yourself. If you can't find some parts, just have Ye Jin take you to my place to watch."

Xu Yan's eyes lit up. "Okay!"

Perhaps because of Liu Lingxiao, their takeout order of fried chicken arrived very quickly.

Liu Lingxiao laid everything out expertly. "Little one, let's eat first."

Xu Yan hesitated a little. "Shouldn't we wait for Ye Jin to join us?"

Liu Lingxiao pushed everything in front of her directly. "What are you thinking? We won't get to eat if he sees us."

Xu Yan paused, then immediately joined Liu Lingxiao. "Alright, let me have some!"

Ye Jin was in the middle of making soup when he suddenly caught a whiff of an unusual smell. His brow twitched, and he strode out of the kitchen. "Liu Lingxiao!"

He walked up to the two girls and stared incredulously at the table full of fried chicken. "Can't you ever do anything good?"

Liu Lingxiao took a bite of chicken leg and nudged Xu Yan with her elbow. "Little one, charm him."

Xu Yan held a chicken leg in one hand and a nugget in the other. She hesitated for a moment. "Brother Ye Jin~"

Ye Jin: "..."

He lost.

Xu Yan watched Ye Jin's Adam's apple bob up and down, and she felt a little flustered for some reason.

After causing mischief, Liu Lingxiao hugged a fried chicken and quietly snuck into a corner to crouch with the two parrots and watch the show.

The two parrots wanted to hide but didn't dare to, so they could only tremble and watch the show.

Ye Jin ultimately didn't do anything, he just gritted his teeth and said to Xu Yan in a low voice: "Brat, I'll deal with you later."

After saying that, he turned and went back to the kitchen.

Xu Yan grabbed a chicken leg and ran to Liu Lingxiao's side: "Sister, I think I'm going to get beat up."

Liu Lingxiao pretended not to notice, she nodded profoundly: "Mm...good luck with that."

Xu Yan's gaze gradually became dazed: "Sister, shouldn't you be the one protecting me in normal circumstances?"

Liu Lingxiao's tone was grave: "Kid, you'll understand when you grow up."

Xu Yan tried to reason with her: "Sister, I'm already an adult now."

But then he suddenly froze: "Sister, I can only live for a few decades."

Liu Lingxiao knew what Xu Yan was thinking about. She looked at her greasy hands and resisted the urge to ruffle Xu Yan's hair.

She said quite seriously: "Yes, you can only live for a few decades, but Ye Jin can live for a very, very long time. So...he has to slowly accompany you as you grow up, accompany you as you grow old, and then find you again after that."

Listening to this, Xu Yan suddenly felt like crying: "Sister, why don't you hate me? Your brother has to endure so much suffering because of me."

But Liu Lingxiao was quite open-minded: "Ye Jin loves you. I'm not his mother, and he's already an adult, why should I control him so much? Besides, little one, your sister is here, he'll find you again soon, so where is this great suffering you speak of?"
