My Arrogant Young Lady

"Wang Xi, you're disgusting! Let go of me! Don't let anyone see!" Zhang Xuan's face immediately changed, and she struggled violently.

"Damn it, how dare you insult us country folk. A slut like you deserves to be tortured." I laughed and started bullying Zhang Xuan.

"Wang Xi, stop messing around..." Zhang Xuan was almost crying because I was bullying her.

Zhang Xuan, the thing that attracts me most is her sassiness; she always says hurtful things to insult me. And every time she insults me, I want to get my revenge. Now, seeing her pretty face flushed red from my teasing, I can't help but feel even more smug. Especially her alluring body, which is starting to make me feel increasingly uncomfortable.

I couldn't take it anymore, and I thought I might as well take advantage of her in the stairwell. Her mother looks down on me so much, it would be really interesting if I took advantage of her in the stairwell.

Thinking this, I started pulling Zhang Xuan towards the stairwell. Zhang Xuan seemed to want to refuse, but there was a hint of expectation in her eyes. I felt even more uncomfortable, thinking I should take advantage of her first!

Just then, my phone rang. I tried not to answer, but it kept ringing. Annoyed by the ringing, I picked it up and glanced at it. Seeing that it was An Yao calling, I was startled. I wondered if something had happened. An Yao wasn't a clingy girl; she would never be in such a hurry to contact me if nothing was wrong.

"What's wrong?" I quickly answered the phone and asked.

"Go home," An Yao said coldly.

After hearing An Yao's words, I couldn't help but exchange a glance with Zhang Xuan. Suddenly, all my emotions vanished, and I grabbed Zhang Xuan's hand and we hurried towards Tang Ning's house.

When I arrived at Tang Ning's house, I saw that Leng Yan was there too. At that moment, I felt even more uneasy.

“Senior Leng Yan, we might need your help this time,” An Yao said, looking at the window across the street.

"Is it your fourth son who's here?" Leng Yan asked coldly.

“Yes.” An Yao nodded.

Seeing An Yao and Leng Yan staring solemnly at the opposite window, Zhang Xuan curiously went over to take a look as well. After watching for a while, Zhang Xuan gradually covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes widening, her gaze filled with indescribable terror.

And then I noticed something was wrong on the other side. A chill ran down my back, and my whole body broke out in goosebumps...

Chapter 83 A Brief Sweetness

It was already noon, and the windows across the way were a bit dazzling. But if you looked closely, you could see a round, red mirror on the windowsill in one of the bedrooms opposite us. With just a slight movement, I could feel the light reflected from that mirror.

But that's not the crux of the problem. The key point is that upon closer inspection, I discovered that in every single one of the countless bedrooms opposite us, there was a round, red mirror on the windowsill. The slightest movement I made reflected countless beams of light from the opposite side. It felt as if I were being stared at by countless eyes.

I was already feeling uneasy seeing a mirror facing our bedroom in the apartment across the street at noon. But now, I see that almost every apartment in the entire building across the street has a mirror facing us. My face turned deathly pale instantly. I felt like I was cursed, so disgusted I couldn't utter a single word.

Seeing this spectacular scene, Zhang Xuan's face turned deathly pale with horror. Covering her mouth with her slender hand, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Who's so wicked as to point so many mirrors at someone else's house?"

“It’s the second young master, our fourth son, Wang Huan,” An Yao said.

"Wang Huan?" I patted my chest for a while before I felt a little better.

“Yes, Wang Huan is the fourth son in our family. His maternal family is the weakest in terms of influence within the clan. He is very superstitious and has loved learning esoteric arts since he was a child. His master was a Taoist priest, and he learned a lot of unorthodox methods from him. Apart from Wang Huan, no one else would come up with such disgusting things.” An Yao looked helplessly at the person opposite her.

Hearing An Yao's words, I was instantly enraged. I could tolerate Wang Che lying to me before, but being cursed with such underhanded tactics this time was unacceptable. Gritting my teeth, I clenched my fists and said, "Damn it, how could my fourth brother be like this? Don't let me catch him, if I do, I'll skin him alive!"

“You can’t catch him.” An Yao pouted.

"What? Is he a good fighter?" I asked.

With a somewhat helpless expression, An Yao pouted and said, "It's not that he's good at fighting, but that he's very good at hiding himself. Besides being highly skilled in martial arts, he's also very good at poisoning. Until we catch him, you'd better be careful about the food around you. Not only you, but even I can't eat anything carelessly this time..."

"That's too sinister!" I said.

"Let's remove those mirrors over there first; they're making us uncomfortable," Leng Yan said.

“Master, will those mirrors have any effect on me? I’ve been having some bad luck lately, and I suspect it’s because of those mirrors,” I said.

After hearing my words, Leng Yan gave me a strange look. Then, she frowned and said, "In this world, there are indeed some things we can't explain. But those mirrors don't actually affect people. It's just that being in those mirrors for too long can cause psychological stress, making people mentally confused and prone to illness. Xi'er, why are you just like your uncle?"

"What happened to my dad?" Zhang Xuan asked immediately.

“Emperor Zhao was very superstitious; he lived his whole life in superstition. Xi’er, you’ve already caught your uncle’s superstition. Don’t go to your uncle’s house anymore,” Leng Yan said.

Soon, Thunder, Fire, Hurricane, Lightning, Mount Everest, Young Master Bao, and Lu Zhicheng all arrived. With my brothers by my side, we headed towards the high-rise across the street. Just as we were about to enter, I couldn't help but look up. I felt a little dizzy and almost fell. Damn, Uncle Tang's high-rise was already quite tall, twenty-four stories. This building was even taller, thirty-two stories in total.

I'm starting to admire my brother. He really doesn't get tired at all. How did he manage to put the mirrors into each apartment in such a huge building?

We knocked on the first door and got the information. They said they were having an event these past few days, and anyone who answered a few questions would receive a small gift. We then led them into the bedroom, where they were startled to see a small mirror on the windowsill. Since it's indeed inauspicious for a mirror to face someone else's house, they quickly apologized and threw it away.

Next, we knocked on doors one by one, and they all said that someone who organized an event had come recently and, seeing a small mirror on their windowsill, had thrown it away. A few houses were empty; we knocked for a long time, but no one answered. Lightning thought for a moment, glanced around, and then took a small wire from his pocket and fastened it. A moment later, the door clicked open. When the door opened, I saw Young Master Bao's face instantly change. "Lightning, you know how to open other people's doors?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Lightning blinked.

"Damn it, why didn't you say you could open someone else's door earlier? Didn't you know I left my keys at home? Damn it, I've been eating instant noodles for over a week now, what the hell do you mean by this?" Young Master Bao roared in anger.

"Damn it, you've been eating instant noodles for a week straight! Didn't we treat you to chicken hot pot yesterday? And who treated you to braised chicken rice the day before yesterday?" Lightning roared in anger.

"Why didn't you say you knew how to open the door sooner? You kept me from going home for a whole week!" Young Master Bao questioned.

“Did you ask me?” Lightning said.

"You wouldn't know if I didn't ask you?" Young Master Bao said.

"Hey kid, stop arguing. I'm going to open your door tonight, you know?" In his haste, he blurted out his local dialect.

"Understood." Young Master Bao was still angry after hearing Lightning's words.

We'd been busy since noon, and finally finished cleaning all the mirrors by evening. We were all exhausted and sweating profusely, and we were all furious with each other for ages. Because of Wang Huan's interference, my date with Zhang Xuan was ruined, and Bao Shao and Shan Dian had planned to spend the whole day at the internet cafe. Now their plans were completely ruined too.

"Wang Huan, don't let me find you!" I couldn't help but say, my teeth itching with anger.

"Damn it, the second young master is so despicable. If I find him, I'll cover him in mirrors." Lightning cursed as well.

"Alright, hurry up and go to my house and open the door. Damn it, I'll treat you to seafood at the seafood market once you get the money," Young Master Bao urged.

After hearing what Young Master Bao said, Shan Dian glanced at the sky and saw that it was already dark. Then, after thinking for a moment, he said to me and An Yao, "Young Master, Miss, I reckon Wang Huan can't make any more moves for now. Why don't we go open the door for Young Master Bao first, and then you can call us if anything happens?"

“Okay.” An Yao nodded in agreement.

Seeing that An Yao agreed, Young Master Bao and his group quickly left. Leng Yan took out her phone and glanced at it. She then looked at me and said, "Those mirrors aren't a big deal, as long as they're removed. Wang Huan shouldn't be showing up anytime soon. Remember to come find me for martial arts practice tomorrow night."

"Okay." Hearing Leng Yan's words, I felt a pang of pain in my heart.

It was getting dark. Zhang Xuan should go home too. Watching Tian Lei, Di Huo, and Master leave one by one, I looked at Zhang Xuan helplessly and said, "Sis, can you not go home tonight?"

"No!" Zhang Xuan glared at me fiercely.

Reluctantly, I could only walk Zhang Xuan home. On the way home, I thought to myself, "What an incredibly unlucky day!" I thought to myself, "I'll have to ask my master if he has any good lucky charms to bring me some good fortune." We walked side by side, neither of us speaking. I glanced at her unintentionally, and my heart stirred. Taking advantage of Zhang Xuan's inattention, I suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Wang Xi, what are you doing?" Startled by my question, Zhang Xuan looked at me in surprise.

"Sis, let me hold your hand for a bit. I didn't get anything out of you today, and I feel really bad," I said, feeling wronged.

"You bastard!" Zhang Xuan laughed. She didn't let me let go.

Seeing that Zhang Xuan agreed to let me hold her hand, I immediately felt a surge of joy. Then, holding Zhang Xuan's slender hand, I deliberately squeezed it very tightly.

"Be gentle." Zhang Xuan glared at me fiercely, saying that her grip was hurting.

I liked her so much that I held on really tight. I felt like I loved her so much I wanted to melt her into my body. Then I loosened my grip a little and said to her with a smile, "Sis, when can we be together?"

"Aren't we together now?" Zhang Xuan looked at me with disdain.

"No, it's about being together. You promised me that last time," I said.

"Which one? I forgot," Zhang Xuan said.

Seeing Zhang Xuan pretending to be clueless, I thought for a moment and gently pinched her waist. Then I pinched her again and said with a smile, "How about this time? Have you forgotten yet?"

"Stop fooling around, you're acting like a child." Zhang Xuan laughed as I pinched her, making her laugh, and kept trying to avoid me.

"Then tell me, do you remember?" I continued to tease her.

"I remember, I remember. I'll give it to you when I have a holiday." Zhang Xuan couldn't stand my teasing anymore and squatted down on the ground.

"Hehe, just remember that. If you dare to go back on your word later, you'll see what I do to you." I looked at her and laughed heartily.

After Zhang Xuan stood up, as we walked back to her house, she gently took my arm. Holding her arm, my heart warmed at that moment. At that time, I still didn't have much money. I didn't have a car to pick her up, nor did I have any expensive gifts to give her. But I knew she truly liked me, and I truly liked her too. Regardless of whether I had money or not, I knew she would always be good to me. She would always be that kind-hearted older sister who was tough on the outside but soft on the inside, silently doing everything for me.

We got home, and we looked at each other downstairs, reluctant to part. Gradually, her pretty face flushed red, and she glared at me fiercely, saying, "Aren't you going home? Want to come home with me?"

“Okay, then I’ll go home with you. Anyway, I’ve been living in your house for over ten years. I don’t believe your aunt can kick me out. Even if she does, I won’t leave. I’ll just put up with it and see what she can do to me,” I said.

"Stop fooling around, go home, see you at school tomorrow," Zhang Xuan said.

"I can't bear to part with you," I said earnestly.

"Me too." She smiled, then suddenly gave me a light kiss on the cheek and ran off.

After she ran away, I stood there for a long time, covering my face. Gradually, a happy smile appeared on my face, and my heart felt as sweet as honey.

On my way home, I couldn't help but think to myself, when Yehenara Xier appears, I must make things clear with her. No matter how beautiful she is, I can't be with her. Zhang Xuan is the only one for me in this life, and I don't want anyone else.

As I thought to myself, I nodded slightly. Suddenly, I saw a girl's figure blocking my way. Looking at that girl, I couldn't help but frown...

Chapter 84 Arrested Without Cause

It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and because of the cold weather, there were few pedestrians on the street. At this moment, a girl seemed to be deliberately blocking my way. When I looked at her, she was grinning at me.

She had curly hair, bright red lipstick, and long false eyelashes. She was dressed very little: a leather jacket, a leather skirt, thin black stockings, and red high heels. In such cold weather, her attire seemed quite odd.

Seeing me staring at her, she flashed a confident smile. She puffed out her chest and lightly licked her lips. "Handsome, wanna hook up?"

"No, Auntie, I don't want to." She gave me goosebumps, so I quickly walked around her.

"Handsome young man, it's free!" She blocked my way again. She licked her lips and gently touched her thigh.

Looking at her confident smile, I suddenly felt a little disgusted. Putting aside her looks, the most beautiful girls I've ever seen are Wang Che and then An Yao. Ever since I saw my two younger sisters, I haven't felt anything for any other girl. As for Zhang Xuan, whom I like, although she's not as beautiful as Wang Che or An Yao, she's still a school beauty. And her aura is clean and alluring, far surpassing anything this girl in front of me can compare to.

If this girl were dressed more conservatively, I wouldn't feel so uncomfortable. But in this freezing weather, not only is she wearing so little, but she's also wearing bright red lipstick. And the smile on her face is inexplicably confident. I really can't understand where that confidence comes from. If I didn't have some self-control, I would have punched her a couple of times.

Also, I just experienced a superstitious event at noon today. Late at night, she was wearing red lipstick and red high heels, which made me feel incredibly uncomfortable. I felt like she wasn't even real, as if the fourth brother's curse had come true, sending her to taint my eyes.

Seeing me standing there dumbfounded, she thought I was just silly because she was so pretty. Instantly, her smile became even more confident, and she lightly patted her thigh, saying, "Hmm~! Handsome, wanna go out? I can even give you some pocket money."

"Get out!" I suddenly said coldly.

The beautiful woman was stunned, never expecting that I would swear. I ignored her and walked around her to leave.

Suddenly, she grabbed my clothes. Her eyes turned cold, and her voice was icy. "You're not leaving today, whether you like it or not!"

"You know martial arts?" I looked at her in surprise, feeling the strength in her hands.

"Heh, what a wild child! He has no manners at all!" she sneered.

"You were sent by the fourth brother!"

My heart skipped a beat again, and she spun me around abruptly. As I spun, the back of my clothes crumpled into a ball. Because her hand hurt from being spun, she finally released my clothes. I glanced back at her, then turned and ran.

"Stop right there, you rude thing!" she shouted angrily, and lunged at me with a whoosh.
