I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family
Chapter 722 - 730: The Modest Young LadyChapter 722: Chapter 730: The Modest Young Lady
Nan Xi just couldn’t accept it, frantically staring at Bai Zhi as if she had to find a reason for everything.
And Bai Zhi just looked at her coldly, as if she were looking at a madwoman.
If she couldn’t see what was going on by now, then she really was a fool.
From the very beginning, it seemed that Nan Xi was just setting her up.
She was simply trying to provoke her into saying something.
All of Nan Xi’s crazy talk, including the so-called “shedding the disguise,” was nothing but an attempt to coax something out of her.
She wasn’t a criminal, yet it was quite amusing that they didn’t stop Nan Xi when she rushed over to her.
Bai Zhi grabbed Nan Xi by the arm, “Nan Xi, have you gone mad? What are all these nonsensical things you’re saying? Even TV shows wouldn’t dare to write like you. Can’t you just calm down and tell me what’s really happened?”
So it’s just an act, huh? Come on, then. Who’s afraid of whom? If she stopped first, she would be the loser.
It seemed that Bai Zhi was now a bit curious as well.
Tears fell from Nan Xi’s eyes once more as her eye sockets turned blood red. She became utterly despondent, collapsing onto the ground.
“What should I do? I want to go home, I want to go back to being a homebody. Why is it so hard to just live?
Can’t you tell me how you did it? How you managed to successfully enter someone else’s body?”
Haha, so she had come to dig a hole, had she?
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Get up, I’ll take you to the hospital, a mental hospital is better suited for you.”
By the end, Bai Zhi spoke with absolute sincerity, but her words made Nan Xi want to explode.
She truly wanted to explode.
“I really want to go home. Even though I don’t make much money every month, I can live off my parents. All I need to do is write, eat, and sleep.
I wrote this novel just because they all think I’m fat and ugly, and even when I go on blind dates, I’m picked apart.
The dissatisfaction with reality… I just wanted to achieve it in the novel.”
These words, at least, were true. Perhaps Nan Xi had truly broken down, no longer able to distinguish between what was real and what was fake.
Just to fulfill her fantasies, she dispensed with any sense of morality and wrote mindless drivel.
Anyway, she just thought about how to make her life perfect, and everyone was unconditionally used to Nan Xi. Like ginseng on the mountains, Lingzhi in the fields—forever irrational.
“So I started writing. Nan Xi is the group pet, she encounters every opportunity. I transmigrated here, and I thought I had hit the jackpot. I even dreamed of reaching the pinnacle of life. But in the blink of an eye…”
“Tell me who you really are. Are you also transmigrated, so you managed to avoid Bai Zhi’s tragedy? And this Jade Pendant was clearly a space artifact, why is it gone now? Did you hide it? Tell me!”
Nan Xi clutched Bai Zhi’s hand tightly, her eyes filled with madness, and her face twisted into an ugly expression.
Bai Zhi actually found this version of Nan Xi somewhat laughable.
“Nan Xi, seeing you like this makes me happy. You stole my parents from me and bullied me every day; I truly despised you. Yet, I still had expectations of them. I thought that if I worked hard enough, if I behaved, they would see me.
But the result? I was nearly harmed to death. If I don’t change after all this, what am I? A masochist or someone who thinks they aren’t dying fast enough?
Nan Xi, if you’re sick, get treatment. Otherwise, I fear it will be too late for you.”
Bai Zhi looked at Nan Xi and reminded her with heartfelt advice. After all, if anyone would regret being too late, it was her.
“You…” Nan Xi hadn’t expected that even when things had come to this, Bai Zhi remained unmoved. “I’ve opened up to you about everything, why are you still not saying anything?”
Nan Xi looked at Bai Zhi with hurt in her eyes, seemingly unable to understand why. “I’ve told you my biggest secret, but you’re just too insincere.”
“To say that we are enemies might not even be going too far. I think I’ve been rather nice to you, still here listening to your madness. Try this with someone else and see; they would have sent you to the psychiatric hospital by now.”
Bai Zhi brushed off Nan Xi’s hand and headed for the door.
But Nan Xi lunged at her, attempting to knock Bai Zhi down; Bai Zhi turned, and Nan Xi fell to the ground, missing her target.
“Bai Zhi, you must be from another world; otherwise, you couldn’t possibly know so much detail. Tell me, what exactly do you know?”
Seeing that Bai Zhi didn’t want to speak further, Nan Xi yelled out loud.
Since they wanted to study her, they should also capture Bai Zhi.
“Are you sick or something?” Bai Zhi bluntly threw these few words at her. “You better try to cooperate, because I don’t want to play crazy with you anymore.”
Bai Zhi walked right past Nan Xi, and at this moment, the so-called director walked in.
“I’m sorry, Student Bai Zhi, but due to the overwhelming amount of information just now provided by Nan Xi, you cannot leave for the time being.”
They had all seen Bai Zhi’s behavior just now, and there was no issue, but the lack of any issue was precisely the biggest problem.
They needed a breakthrough, not a lack of problems.
The things that Nan Xi had said, they found incredible; but after discussing it with the professor, they realized it was not impossible. Through Nan Xi, they learned many things, learned about that supernatural space and naturally wanted to possess it.
The last time, they had set out without success.
This time, it was imperative to acquire it.
“Oh? I don’t know what reasons you have for keeping me here, just because of her raving? You are restricting my personal freedom. I have the right not to cooperate and to find a lawyer.”
This move by them caught Bai Zhi somewhat off guard.
Because she hadn’t expected this situation at all, and she had come without any preparations. The only thing was that she had arranged to have dinner with Bai Fei and Xu Yan today.
“Oh, the little girl seems to know a lot, then you must also know we can keep you here for the time being.”
He wasn’t afraid of this problem at all. “Besides, we’re just asking for your cooperation with an investigation. An investigation involving Nan Xi.”
Bai Zhi was not in a hurry at all; instead, she looked at him with a calm and serene expression.
“I am not close to her, and of course, because she doesn’t like the look of me, she wants to drag me down with her. I understand that.
But that’s not a reason for you to treat me this way. This place is supposed to be most sacred, to give justice and fairness, and you do not deserve it.”
Bai Zhi suddenly laughed, “And sorry, but you can’t keep me here. Even if I’m wrong, my case would be in the military court, not here.”
Bai Zhi pulled out a box and opened it. Seeing what was inside, the man’s face turned pale.
Damn it, they really had no right to keep Bai Zhi, because she was…
“Your humble servant is just a special advisor… so, you really have no way to keep me.
But, of course, if you insist on it, you will have to go through my superior. Do you need me to give you the number?”
Bai Zhi spoke considerately, and normally she would never reveal such a thing, as it could be construed as showing off, especially since she was still a student.
