“Shaya, get over here!”
Xue Ji angrily pulled Shaya into the room and then summoned Lilith, who had just woken up.
Lilith was wearing dinosaur pajamas and rubbing her eyes impatiently.
“You two stand up straight. Confess and get leniency; resist and face the consequences!”
Her angry voice instantly chased away Lilith’s drowsiness. Remembering what she had done yesterday, she knew it was time to test the trust between her and Shaya.
Shaya and Lilith exchanged glances, then calmly took a step forward.
They had already discussed it: if Xue Ji found out that her millions of Happy Beans and her League of Legends account had been banned, they would stick to the same story and deny everything they had done.
“Who lost all three million of my Happy Beans?” Xue Ji was furious. Those were beans she had earned by playing like a high roller and dominating in the card game Dou Di Zhu.
Both of them pointed at each other at the same time.
“Her!”
The moment they spoke, their eyes clashed like swords.
After all their discussion and barely managing to set aside their differences, their “unbreakable” alliance fell apart in an instant.
“You backstabbing little scrub!”
“Brat, I knew you were up to no good!”
As the two stood on the verge of a fight, Xue Ji’s room—which had just gone through a major battle yesterday—was about to see another wave of chaos.
Seeing the situation turning bad, Xue Ji quickly pulled them apart. She was really afraid these two would blow up her room.
“Stop, stop, stop! Both of you, hold your horses. Let me go first!”
“Who got my League of Legends account banned?”
Xue Ji had filed an appeal today and successfully got it unbanned.
But as soon as she logged in, the ninety-nine friend requests were hard to miss.
She thought her amazing plays had been made into a highlight reel and people were asking for her autograph.
Instead, she was bombarded with all kinds of toxic language from the various players on the “Zu’an” server. Dizzy from the insults, Xue Ji couldn’t believe it and checked her match history from yesterday.
Every single game was a clean 0/20-something. Her rank had also dropped straight from Diamond IV to Emerald, and the champion she played the most was mid-lane Yasuo. In the very last match, she finally managed to get one kill, but she died over thirty times. Just by looking at the stats, Xue Ji could feel the rage of her teammates back then.
With no other choice, she wanted to play a round of Dou Di Zhu to cool off, but she had zero Happy Beans left. She nearly coughed up blood.
So now, she had zero sympathy for these two troublemakers. She didn’t know if she had just been too merciful before, or if these two brats had hit their rebellious phase and were daring to pull this kind of collusion right in front of her.
“Lilith, you go first. What did you do that day? Shaya, you wait outside for now.”
After Shaya left, Lilith told her version of the day’s events, adding plenty of extra drama.
The main point was that Shaya did everything, including coming up with the “Operation Xue Ji” plan. She was practically a menace to society.
Xue Ji looked at her like she was an idiot. This girl was really trying to wash her hands of all responsibility. With her usual bratty behavior, who would believe that?
“So if none of that had anything to do with you, what were you doing that day?”
“Uhh… that day, I didn’t do anything. I just went and learned meditation from the Trash Immortal girl,” Lilith said, thinking quickly and using the young lady in the Ru skirt as a shield.
As she said this, she was also fighting on two fronts, constantly begging the young lady in her consciousness space to play along.
Little did she know, Xue Ji could also hear their conversation in the consciousness space. Lilith was basically plotting her alibi right out loud in front of Xue Ji.
“Go get your story straight first, then come back here and waste my time!”
Xue Ji hoisted Lilith up and started spanking her like an Ansai waist drum, slapping her with vigorous enthusiasm.
Shaya, standing outside the door, could hear Lilith’s screams loud and clear. She couldn’t help but swallow nervously.
She stared at the closed door, a fierce fear rising in her heart. She was now absolutely terrified of that flimsy door opening. But as long as it stayed closed, she couldn’t stop her imagination from running wild, picturing all sorts of terrible endings for herself.
What kind of punishment would be fitting for all the trouble they had brought upon themselves?
In Shaya’s imagination, that door had become the most powerful beast, like the enemies that appeared in her nightmares.
It possessed immense strength, and its fighting spirit and endurance were astonishing.
Such a powerful opponent was about to appear before her, Shaya. Was it time to give up?
Shaya never backed down, even when facing the overwhelmingly powerful Ling Xiaoxiao.
This was the creed she lived by: she never retreats, and she won’t be defeated by her own fear.
Shaya would face her fear and then overcome it.
Just as Shaya’s fighting spirit reached its peak, Xue Ji opened the door.
“Get in here!”
Shaya was so startled her fur stood on end. It took her a moment to react.
“Oh~ coming…”
…
“Stop hitting me, stop! I’ll let you play with my tail, okay? Boo hoo hoo hoo~”
Shaya’s pleas for mercy came from inside the room.
“You two are hilarious. You say you didn’t do it, she says she didn’t do it. So who did do it?”
“I lost the Happy Beans, and Lilith got the account banned. Stop hitting me, I know I was wrong!”
Xue Ji was spanking Shaya with a large hand made of spiritual energy. It wouldn’t hurt her body, but it would promote her spiritual energy circulation. The only downside was that it hurt way more than a normal spanking.
Even Shaya was crying from the pain.
With no other choice, Shaya stretched out her tail to get Xue Ji’s attention. It was like a little pillow, and the feel of it really was nice. Xue Ji squeezed it; the soft texture was incredibly addictive.
Fortunately, Shaya had observed Xue Ji’s daily habits carefully. She noticed that Xue Ji often liked to go hug fluffy things. When cats outside would act all cute towards her, Xue Ji could never just walk away.
“Oh, right. Which one of you two came up with the idea to lie to me together?”
“It was Lilith.”
Xue Ji pulled Lilith out of the shadows and strapped her into an esports chair.
Lilith, looking at the furious Xue Ji, smiled and pleaded, “Hey, can we call a truce?”
“Right now, you must be joking, right?” Shaya was lying on Xue Ji’s bed, her butt in the air, not feeling great either.
She wasn’t about to pass up the chance to throw Lilith under the bus. After all, if Lilith hadn’t encouraged her in the first place, she wouldn’t be in this mess.
Xue Ji was about to continue interrogating Lilith when the room door was opened by her mom.
“What are you all doing?” Mom Xue looked around the room, her expression turning cold. “Xue Ji! Is this how you take care of them?”
Mom Xue looked at the bound Lilith and Shaya lying on the bed, a vein bulging on her forehead.
“Xue Ji, step outside for a moment.”
“Mom? It’s not what you think! Let me explain!”
Xue Ji was pulled out of the room by her mom, and Lilith narrowly escaped further punishment.
And so, the situation reached a very awkward point.
Xue Ji got grilled by her mom, Lilith and Shaya were in pain, and Mom Xue was angry. A world where everyone gets hurt was achieved.
You ask about Dad Xue? Dad Xue went fishing and got skunked…
Afterwards, Shaya coughed up the money to buy Xue Ji some skins and recharge her Happy Beans. Lilith, on the other hand, became much more well-behaved. She created her own account and started practicing her skills hard, saying that one day she would duo queue with Xue Ji and carry her to Challenger rank.
