Chapter 173 - Self-Rescue Manual of a Villainess
Seated in the unmanned shuttle at the training base, Nan Yin looked out at the bustling crowd. Relieved that she was no longer the center of attention, she finally let out a sigh of relief. At last, no one was fixating their gaze on her sudden appearance as a cat-eared and tailed girl. However, before Nan Yin could fully relax, a voice of a girl beside her suddenly asked in confusion, "Sister, what are you looking at?" The abrupt sound of the girl's voice made Nan Yin's heart tremble. Feeling a bit helpless at this moment, she realized that the girl sitting beside her was none other than Nan Xi, who she hadn't seen in a long time. Just as Nan Yin was about to break free from her distress at the training base, Nan Xi appeared out of nowhere. Helplessly, Nan Yin could only take Nan Xi onto the shuttle first and explain everything later. "I...I wasn't looking at anything," Nan Yin faced Nan Xi with a subconscious sense of guilt. Just because she had suddenly transformed into a cat-girl. Nan Yin had been praying that Nan Xi wouldn't ask about this, but it was obvious that this was impossible. Sure enough, Nan Xi immediately started to inquire, "Sister... your ears?" Despite Nan Xi wearing a hood, Nan Yin could still see the astonishment in Nan Xi's eyes. It was evident that Nan Yin's transformation into a cat-girl had surprised Nan Xi greatly. "Well, about the ears," Nan Yin felt somewhat troubled for a moment. Unbeknownst even to herself, her cat ears drooped down with her fluctuating emotions. "Ahem, I just activated my bloodline, you know." This dry explanation was clearly not what Nan Xi was looking for. Besides, when did her sister have any feline bloodline? How could she not know about this? "Um... Sister, I brought your favorite cherry cake today." Cherry cake? Nan Yin's mood improved at the mention of it. Cherries were her favorite fruit, and Nan Xi would always bring her homemade pastries with cherries whenever she visited. And because Nan Xi knew Nan Yin liked cherries, she made cherry cakes often. "Great!" Nan Yin was delighted. However, in Nan Xi's eyes, she only saw her sister's previously droopy cat ears suddenly perk up in excitement. Interesting, Sister. Leaving the training base, instead of returning to the company, Nan Yin chose to go back to her apartment. After a day of exhaustion at Longyun's cave, she needed some rest. With Nan Xi, who was full of questions, back at the apartment, Nan Yin discovered that both Jiang Mi and Xia Yi Yi had left her notes. Apparently, the practical courses at the Kanalais Academy had commenced, so Jiang Mi and Xia Yi Yi were required to stay and study, unable to return home for the time being. It had only started yesterday, and since Nan Yin hadn't come home, Jiang Mi and Xia Yi Yi had left her a message before heading to school. "They're not here," Nan Yin rubbed her face, looking somewhat distressed. Without anyone at home, could it even be called a home? It seemed more like a residence. But Nan Yin wasn't too disheartened. After all, she still had Nan Xi by her side. After all, she was her real sister, someone she should be closer to compared to Jiang Mi. Although there had been various conflicts with Nan Xi before, Nan Yin could sense her changes. Therefore, her attitude towards Nan Xi had gradually shifted from negligence to acceptance. After all, who could resist a sweet call from a beautiful girl like her? "Aren't Jiang Mi and Yi Yi not at home," Nan Xi also noticed the note left by Jiang Mi, casually asking. "Yes, they have to stay at school... huh?" It was only at this moment that Nan Yin realized why Nan Xi hadn't gone to school today; she was also a student at Kanalais Academy. Why was she not there today? Nan Yin gave her a puzzled look, but Nan Xi just smiled. She knew exactly what her sister wanted to ask. "Sister, have you forgotten? I am Longyun's disciple. I have the freedom to come and go, but I have to attend if Longyun has a class," Nan Xi said. Nan Yin nodded in understanding. However, her expression then turned somewhat strange. She hadn't expected Nan Xi to be Longyun's disciple. Although this had already happened in the original work, Nan Yin had clearly forgotten about it. It seemed that despite her efforts, some things from the original story were back on track. This... this was unexpected. That Longyun was involved with her again. Nan Yin didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. Nan Yin's strange expression flashed by quickly, so Nan Xi didn't notice it. At that moment, she looked around the apartment and suddenly spoke, "Sister, since Jiang Mi and Yi Yi won't be home these days, can I move in?" Nan Yin was taken aback. She didn't mind; in fact, when Nan Xi had improved a bit, Nan Yin had already prepared a room for her when she bought the apartment, in room 3102 across from hers. They were still close, since the entire building belonged to the Amblera International and the apartment staff were all employees of Amblera International. Nan Xi had been living in the school dormitory before, and neither she nor Nan Yin had brought this up actively. However, she didn't expect Nan Xi to want to move in today. "Of course, I've already prepared a room for you," Nan Yin smiled gently. Since the moment she crossed to this world until now, she had become more feminine than before. "But didn't you refuse to come before?" Why had Nan Xi refused to come in the past? Because of her Ormous? By that time, Nan Xi had already realized the strange presence within her. Feeling guilty towards her sister, how could she possibly bring such a big uncertainty to Nan Yin's side? No one knew what this would bring to her sister, who was just a low-level ability user. Yes, Nan Xi now knew that Nan Yin hadn't been accepted by any ability academy. But naive as she was, she still believed it was just because Nan Yin's ability level was low. She had no idea of the cruel truth underneath. Since she couldn't say the real reason, Nan Xi could only brush it off. Nan Yin didn't mind, so after chatting with Nan Xi for a while, she suddenly had an idea. "Oh! You haven't eaten yet!" "I learned a new dish a few days ago, beef noodles; I'll make them for you!" Said Nan Yin, smiling as she stood up. Even though she had been busy with Amblera International and seldom cooked these days, she was free today and was pleased to have Nan Xi over. "Sis! I don't eat scallions!" Nan Xi nodded unexpectedly. Didn't she used to be not picky about food? Nan Yin didn't mind and nodded. "Got it." As Nan Yin entered the kitchen, a lazy voice echoed in Nan Xi's mind, "The little girl is quite considerate, she knows I don't eat scallions." The reading group has been reported, but I don't know why. The new group is 559462731.
