After being attacked by the rich young ladies with hatchets, I chose to enter "sage mode".

These words caught Bai Yu completely off guard, and she nearly choked on the saliva she swallowed.

"Boss lady, that was in my past life. You also tempted me in the bathroom, so you were the first one too."

Bai Yu knew very well that Lin Ying said those things only to embarrass Si Yu. In reality, she didn't have that much courage and would never willingly do something so outrageous. So Bai Yu had to point out that she also had advantages, such as the allure in the bathroom.

Even if the two women are evenly matched in this situation, one can still keep the balance of power.

The two women are constantly comparing themselves to each other, constantly competing with each other in every aspect.

If this continues, their skills may become more and more powerful, and they may even develop many new skills, but Bai Yu will definitely be exhausted from trying to keep a bowl of water steady.

"Go change your clothes. You're at the beach, so relax and have some fun, okay?"

After saying that, Bai Yu turned around and walked directly towards the men's locker room without waiting for the two women's response, mainly because she was afraid that something new might happen.

After seeing Bai Yu turn and leave, the two women only glanced at each other, picked up their clothes, and headed towards the women's changing room.

By the time the two women finished changing and came out, Bai Yu had already done her homework.

After all, they've been rolling up their sleeves all along, so they'll definitely ask themselves questions like "Does it look good?" and "Which one looks better?" after putting on their swimsuits.

Bai Yu had already prepared for this when the topic of coming to the beach came up.

"Ahem, don't ask me first, I'll answer and evaluate it myself, okay?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Yu's gaze fell on Si Yu. With her fair skin, beautiful face, long legs, sexy long black hair, and exceptionally curvy figure, even a custom-made swimsuit couldn't contain her body.

"Sister Siyu, I think you look great in this outfit. Your bra is custom-made with red floral silk trim, and so are your panties. You're so fair-skinned and beautiful, I don't even know how to describe it. In short, I want to go for it."

Upon hearing this, Si Yu's eyes subconsciously glanced at Bai Yu's pants. She covered her mouth and chuckled, but inadvertently glanced at Lin Ying, her eyes full of smugness.

Although Lin Ying couldn't understand how Bai Yu evaluated Si Yu in Mandarin, she was certain that it wouldn't be bad, otherwise Si Yu wouldn't be so proud.

In this situation, she started to panic a little. After all, her figure was no less than Si Yu's, and her looks and temperament were equally impressive. However, the two women were quite different. Lin Ying was a combination of a young girl and a mature woman, with a sexy yet ethereal style, while Si Yu was a completely sexy and mature woman, with a hot body.

However, how could Bai Yu possibly say what type of girl he likes? For him, Lin Ying and Si Yu are both inseparable parts of his heart, far exceeding the scope of mere liking.

"Boss lady, to be honest, every time you wear different clothes, you give people a different feeling, but what never changes is that you are still as beautiful as a princess, like the fairy tale in my dream."

Bai Yu's praise of Lin Ying wasn't as grand and elaborate as Si Yu's; instead, it was delivered in a fresh and understated manner.

However, these words suited Lin Ying exceptionally well. She truly resembled a princess from a fairy tale, beautiful as a dream yet pitiful.

"Alright, alright, we've done the evaluation. Let's go sit on the beach where there are fewer people."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Yu's gaze turned to a less crowded stretch of beach in the distance.

Of course, it's also quite close to the three women: Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying.

Chapter Fifty-Seven Acting

They sat down on a less crowded beach. Lin Ying and Si Yu had brought picnic tablecloths, which were quite large, but then another problem arose.

The problem is that both women have tablecloths to sit on, so whose table should Bai Yu sit on?

After a few days, Bai Yu was tired, but he had gained some experience. When he saw the two women looking at him, he immediately stood up, grabbed a piece of cloth in each hand, and pieced them together. He sat in the middle, giving each of them half, which was fair, just, and transparent.

Looking at the three girls, Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying, who were about 40 or 50 meters away, each of them brought their boyfriends. They were quite good at having fun, being treated to a free meal.

Of course, Bai Yu met these three women several months later in his previous life. At that time, Tian Ye Mu Zi did not have a boyfriend. Otherwise, how could Fujino Jiro have openly played with her?

"Please sit down for a while. I'm going to the men's locker room over there. I left my phone in my clothes."

Making up an excuse, Bai Yu got up and walked away under the questioning gazes of the two women.

Bai Yu walked a short distance toward the men's changing room, then turned around and saw Lin Ying and Si Yu arguing again, unaware of her presence. He then immediately turned and walked toward Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying.

What he needed to do was not to talk to the three women, nor to flirt with them, nor to have a secret conversation; he simply needed to go over and draw their attention to Lin Ying, who was not far away.

Only after these three women notice Lin Ying will the planned events begin to unfold.

Of course, even if the three girls didn't notice Lin Ying, their boyfriends would probably notice Si Yu and Lin Ying. After all, two such beautiful women with great figures were sitting in the distance; it would be a waste not to look.

As Bai Yu strolled closer to Jing Shenqinglu, Tianye Muzi, and Kato Xiying, she pretended to slip and fell when she was within two meters of them.

Bai Yu wasn't acting; instead, he simply fell face down. In his previous life, he would have been afraid of getting hurt, but now he wasn't even afraid of death, so what was the big deal if he actually fell?

With a sudden tumble, Bai Yu landed right next to the three women, startling them.

"Oh, that scared me to death..."

"what happened?"

"Hey, are you alright?"

The three women didn't recognize Bai Yu, so they spoke very politely to him. Unlike in their previous life, they didn't harbor any hatred towards Bai Yu and were extremely hostile upon meeting him. Moreover, Bai Yu's fall was genuine; he really did fall. Plus, he was handsome, so they would naturally have a good impression of him before any enmity arose.

Getting up, Bai Yu patted the yellow sand off her stomach and face, waved with a smile, and replied.

"It's alright, it's alright. I came from over there to see the scenery. I'm sorry, I almost bumped into you. I'm so sorry."

As Bai Yu said this, she smiled and deliberately pointed in the direction where Lin Ying and Si Yu were.

People will unconsciously follow the direction others are pointing; this is true for everyone without exception.

Lin Ying's blonde hair was already quite striking, and with Si Yu and her beauty, it was no wonder that the three women noticed her immediately, and even their boyfriends were completely mesmerized.

Seeing this, Bai Yu knew that she had successfully guided them. Now it was up to Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying to see how they would perform and how Si Yu and Lin Ying would respond.

The plan is proceeding perfectly so far, at least without any deviations or unexpected situations.

Bai Yu pointed to the distance and then left, showing no intention of engaging in any further interaction with them.

As soon as he left, the three women became restless, because they all noticed the unintentional glances of their boyfriends beside them, and naturally they also saw Lin Ying.

Lin Ying was someone they often bullied when they were in school. Whenever they saw her, they would say some strange things or even bully her. After all, no one would help her, so what was there to be afraid of?

Now, not only have they met, but her boyfriend keeps staring at her, clearly thinking that Lin Ying is more beautiful and sexy than her. When a woman's jealousy flares up, she's even more eager to take revenge, isn't she?

Among the three women, Kato Keie, with her wine-red hair and earring, was the first to stand up. The three women exchanged glances and knew what the others were thinking.

I originally just wanted to have some fun at the beach, since it's free and I even get paid for it. But it's different when I meet Lin Ying. This girl is usually quite wealthy, so it wouldn't be too much to ask for more money, right?

As for whether the three girls were afraid of Si Yu, they weren't afraid at all. It wasn't because Si Yu posed no threat to them, but because they all knew very well that Lin Ying had no friends at all, and Si Yu was probably just a passerby who was a little closer to her. After all, the two of them were sitting on two different beach mats.

Grabbing their boyfriends, Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying walked towards Lin Ying and Si Yu without saying a word.

They weren't far from Lin Ying; it would only take about half a minute to walk there.

When they approached within ten meters of Lin Ying, Lin Ying had already noticed them.

"Sakura-chan, it's been a long time! I never thought you'd be playing at the beach someday!"

Jing Shen and Qing Lu immediately made a sarcastic remark to Lin Ying.

Lin Ying didn't reply to these words. She was used to being bullied, but Si Yu frowned and turned to look behind her.

When she saw three women and three men approaching her, she instinctively crossed her arms and stepped aside.

Si Yu could tell at a glance that the three women were there to cause trouble for Lin Ying, since they all had arrogant and conceited attitudes.

As for why she stepped aside instead of stopping her, it was obviously because she wanted to see Lin Ying frustrated. She didn't like this woman who pretended to be a pure and virtuous lady at home to Bai Yu at all.

Si Yu's unintentional stepping aside only made Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying laugh even more merrily and mockingly. They had thought before that Lin Ying would never have any friends, but they weren't entirely sure. After all, the world was so big, and so much time had passed. What if she was wrong? Si Yu's stepping aside was the best proof of that.

"Sakura-chan, we're really good friends! Why didn't you tell us you were coming to the beach? If you had, we definitely would have taken you along, right?"

As Tianye Muzi, sporting a dimple piercing, spoke, she smiled and glanced at Jing Shen Qinglu and Kato Xiying beside her. The three women exchanged smiles, their laughter filled with disdain and mockery. Little did they know, the jealousy in their eyes was equally obvious; anyone could tell what they were jealous of about Lin Ying.

P.S.: It's the last day of the month, remember to vote with your monthly tickets if you still have any, thank you.

Chapter Fifty-Eight: Losses and Gains

Looking at the smiling faces of Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying, Lin Ying actually had no idea how she should face it. Even after being reborn, it didn't mean that she could overcome the shadows buried in her heart.

Rebirth may change many things, but for Lin Ying, some things are simply impossible to change, just like her still pessimistic personality.

Looking at Lin Ying who was not saying a word, the three girls did not know that Lin Ying could speak, so they thought it was normal to see her silent, after all, she had always been like this when they bullied her.

"We're a little short on cash lately, Sakura-chan, could you lend us some money?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jing Shen Qinglu extended her hand first, and the gentle movement of her fingers indicated her purpose.

Because someone took the lead, the two women, Tano Muko and Kato Keie, also extended their palms to signal Lin Ying to take the money. Their movements were very practiced, and it was clear that they had done this kind of thing many times before.

Seeing this, Lin Ying remained silent, her eyes unintentionally searching for Bai Yu's figure.

Bai Yu had already gone to squat among the crowd in the distance to watch the show. He was actually more nervous and uneasy than Lin Ying, because if Si Yu just watched without saying anything or stopping it, Lin Ying would be bullied because of her personality. At that point, he would have no choice but to go out, and the plan would be declared a failure.

He clenched his fists tightly. He definitely didn't like Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying at all, but he had to endure it now.

"Sakura-chan, we're asking you a question, don't pretend you're deaf, okay? Even though you're mute, we know you can hear us. We're old classmates, we'll pay you back the little bit of money we borrowed right away, here you go~"

With her dimples pierced, Tianye Muzi bent slightly and put on an innocent smile, asking for money with one hand while ladylike twirling her red hair behind her ear with the other. But all these actions and expressions were for Si Yu's benefit.

Only Lin Ying, who was facing her directly, could see the disgust and disdain in her eyes.

Because she's been staying home these past few days, Lin Ying has gradually stopped using pens and notebooks. However, she still habitually brings them with her when she goes out, which is probably an unconscious habit she's developed over the years.

Of course, even so, she still did not intend to have any conversation with them; remaining silent was her usual way of protecting herself.

Staring at Lin Ying, who remained silent and staring at them, Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying felt that having Si Yu watching from the side made them feel a little uneasy, even if he didn't help.

With a smile, Jing Shenqing, who had long, wavy, flaxen hair, grabbed Lin Ying's arm. It looked like a light grab, but the pulling force was actually quite strong.

They felt uncomfortable here with Si Yu watching, so they planned to take Lin Ying to another place to chat, where they could have a better conversation.

Si Yu, who was watching the show from the sidelines, didn't say a word from beginning to end. One reason was that she didn't understand the language of the island nation very well, and the other was that she never thought of helping Lin Ying.

Jing Shenqing pulled with great force, but Lin Ying did not choose to give in. She bit her lip and tried to pull her arm back.

Watching all this from afar, Bai Yu felt only one thing: torment.

Seeing Lin Ying being bullied right in front of him, while he had to hide away like a ninja turtle, was truly a difficult situation for him.

If Si Yu continues to remain silent under these circumstances, then I will have no choice but to leave.

Everything seemed to be going very smoothly at the beginning of the plan, but now things are starting to go wrong. At least Bai Yu has sensed Si Yu's determination not to do anything, and since she is the most important link, not moving means certain failure.

Standing up, Bai Yu felt utterly frustrated and even had the urge to kill Jing Shen Qinglu, Tian Ye Muzi, and Kato Xiying because of her suppressed anger.

However, Bai Yu suppressed this impulsive emotion by forcefully suppressing it with her rationality as she ran up to the three women.

Although he was willing to kill three women in front of everyone for Lin Ying's sake, the consequences were something he couldn't bear, and something Lin Ying and Si Yu couldn't accept.

He has a lot to consider, a lot to think about, and a lot to ponder. It's not just about keeping everyone on the same page; he also has to consider how to solve even more problems while maintaining fairness.

It was tiring, but Bai Yu didn't regret it at all. She even felt that it was not wrong for her to be a tool for serving others for the rest of her life. She had to repay everything that they had given in their previous life.
