Chapter 25: CH 21.2

Chapter 21: Upcoming crisis (2)

Chi Xin went back to her room and had a good night’s sleep. She woke up early the next morning and headed straight to the mission exchange.

It was already bustling early in the morning and teams were getting ready to leave. As soon as she appeared, she instantly attracted almost everyone’s attention.

She glanced around and did not see Xiao Li’s team. She remembered him saying he had things to deal with his comrades and was probably not following the base’s arrangements these days.

Chi Xin bypassed everyone and walked towards Jing Xiubai’s team area and she immediately noticed quite a few people had come this time.

In addition to Jing Xiubai and Yu Xiang, Jiang Congyun was also there as well as two unexpected people.

“Sister Chi!” Chen Xing greeted her with a big slap on her back.

Beside him, a sniper with tied long hair and white gloves was lovingly wiping his gun, and he smiled at Chi Xin when he saw her.

“Are your injuries all healed?”

“Thanks to Sister Congjun, it healed much faster!” Chen Xing answered with a bold smile.

Chen Xing had not been too seriously hurt last time but Chi Xin was very happy to see that Rong Feng, who had taken a direct hit from the power zombie, was intact.

Perceiving her joyful gaze, Rong Feng showed a rare softness: “I am fine.”

“I can see that.” Chi Xin patted him lightly on his shoulder, welcoming him back to the team.

She looked around and asked: “Where is Yu Pengcheng?”

Yu Xiang was excited to see Chi Xin but when he heard her question, he lowered his eyes.

“Alright. Now that everyone is here, let’s set off.” Jing Xiubai interrupted the slightly depressing atmosphere and everyone agreed.

But as they were about to leave, Cao Yan led someone in in a hurry: “Xiubai! Great! You haven’t left yet!”

Chi Xin looked at Han Yiyi and suddenly had a bad feeling.

Cao Yan: “Look, your mission is more dangerous this time. You might encounter something terrible, let Miss Han go with you. She has an ability just like you, she can help.”

Chen Xing and Rong Feng stayed silent; they had been recuperating these past few days and didn’t know who this new girl was.

Jiang Congyun had never seen Han Yiyi either. She glanced at her strangely and couldn’t help frowning when she noticed she was staring at Jing Xiubai.

“I’m against it.” Before the others could speak, Chi Xin voiced her disagreement, “I won’t go if she does.”

What a joke, putting the two vicious female characters in the same team. Were they trying to summon the Zombie King ahead of schedule? Although she wasn’t the original Chi Xin, she still didn’t want to bring this kind of troublesome scenario to herself.

Her expression was cold and her tone decisive, leaving Cao Yan no chance to persuade her.

The conflict between them attracted the attention of other people and everybody looked at Chi Xin as if they had expected it.

“Chi Xin, you can’t ostracize me just because I have powers!” Han Yiyi bit her lip, “My combat power is obvious to all! Even if you don’t like me, you have to take into account the team’s safety.”

Hearing them, Chi Xin guessed Han Yiyi had arranged this performance. She smiled and ignored her, before turning around to face Jing Xiubai: “I am serious. It’s her or me.”

“Although it is a bit hurtful, if you act like that, it’s difficult for me to stay silent.” Han Yiyi curled her hair around a finger, her voice arrogant, “Who cares if you don’t go? You don’t have any power, you’re not of any use. Compared to you, I am much more suitable to fight alongside everyone, aren’t I?”

Han Yiyi showed her “You are not worthy” look with pride.

She didn’t pay attention but after she spoke, the three members of the team who hadn’t met her yet instantly cooled down.

Chen Xing said: “This… Miss Han? This doesn’t sound very nice, does it?”

Han Yiyi covered her mouth and blinked apologetically: “Don’t get me wrong! I mean… it should be a very dangerous mission, shouldn’t it? People who don’t have much self-preservation ability and just want to follow and muddle through… it’s better for them to not actively participate.”

Jing Xiubai’s face was completely cold and he opened his mouth. But as he was about to speak, he felt a touch on his pinky finger. He stared at Chi Xin beside him in amazement.

Chi Xin looked indifferent as if the conversation was not related to her. She was watching Han Yiyi and she walked towards her.

Her gaze was too sharp and Han Yiyi felt uncomfortable. The surrounding discussion also instantly stopped.

Chi Xin’s soft voice echoed in the hall: “Drop the act or I will pull out your leaves one by one.”

***

This happened so suddenly and no one had expected Chi Xin would actually walk away. For a few minutes, nobody talked in the hall.

Yu Xiang pointed to Han Yiyi and looked at Jing Xiubai in disbelief: “Won’t you do something?”

He had always acted rather gentlemanly towards women and it was the first time he was rudely pointing at one. He was obviously very angry.

Rong Feng’s icy gaze fell on Cao Yan: “She is the strongest among us.”

Han Yiyi looked at him with a slight smile: “If she was a man. She has no power, you will soon find out I am more effective than her.”

Jiang Congyun frowned: “Xiubai, go get Chi Xin back.”

She wanted Chi Xin as her teammate.

All eyes fell on their captain. Jing Xiubai rubbed his pinky finger and calmly said: “Let’s go.”

Han Yiyi thought he had finally agreed with her presence and a bright smile bloomed on her face.

When everyone got in the car, Yu Xiang couldn’t help but whisper: “Are you serious? Do you really want to trade Sister Chi for this girl?”

Jing Xiubai didn’t answer him and put his elbow on the window. He glanced in the rearview mirror before starting the SUV and a small smile appeared on his lips. He looked back at Yu Xiang and discreetly pointed to the mirror.

Yu Xiang leaned over suspiciously and noticed a familiar blue scooter hiding behind an abandoned car. Chi Xin’s face appeared and she waved at him.

Although he didn’t know what Chi Xin was playing, he understood that she wasn’t leaving them but following them secretly instead. The anger in Yu Xiang’s heart gradually extinguished.

He wanted to ask Jing Xiubai if it had been the plan all along but he couldn’t because of all the people in the back of the car. 

His face became red and Jing Xiubai asked: “Do you have a fever? Do you need Congyun to heal you?”

“Shut up.”

Little theater:

Chi Xin: This is a terrible idea. But it’s even more of a terrible idea to leave my protagonists with this girl.

Yu Xiang: Chi Xin’s scooter is back!

TL note: Han Yiyi, don’t even look at my Rong Feng!

And this is why Jing Xiubai can eventually only be the ML. He understands Chi Xin, they don’t need words.

TL second note: Yayyyy, Sister Chi’s story is going back to the 2 updates a week schedule! Please check the September notice for more information about all the projects. I know it’s not perfect yet but everything is moving in the right direction!
