Chapter 989: A Win For Both Sides

A Win For Both Sides

Wasn’t this exactly what she said to Tang Yun last time? She told her that if Tang Yun performed well then maybe she’d let her become Lin Yi’s mistress. Tang Yun must be using Xiaoxiao’s words against her!

Xiaoxiao lost all of her troubled feelings. She was quite happy, on the contrary! If Tang Yun wanted to use this route to frustrate her then it wouldn’t work, for Xiaoxiao wasn’t like Tang Yun. She wouldn’t get angry this easily! She would use it to her advantage!

“Heh, I like to be a mistress, it’s much nicer than the main wife who gets jealous all the time!” Xiaoxiao said happily. “Tang Yun, you sure you’ll keep your word if Lin Yi does fall for me?”

“I… I…” Tang Yun instantly ‘stuttered’, as if she was hesitating!

“What, scared now?” Xiaoxiao said, peeking at Tang Yun.

“Of course I’d keep my word! If Lin Yi does like you then there’s nothing I can say!” Tang Yun said as if taking the bait. “If he accepts you, I’ll accept you!”

“Okay, it’s a deal then!” Xiaoxiao gleefully, thinking that Tang Yun wasn’t as devious and mischievous as she was, falling for her trick so easily.

“Fine, then!” Tang Yun hmphed.

“Then you can’t glare at me in the future when I get close with Lin Yi!” Xiaoxiao added.

“As long as he doesn’t say anything, I’ll spend it peacefully with you!” Tang Yun said as her face reddened.

“Alright, for fairness’ sake, the three of us will eat together, and come to school together, and leave school together!” Xiaoxiao said as she continued testing Tang Yun’s bottom line—she wanted to suck out more benefits before Tang Yun came back to her senses!

“Fine, fine then! I’ll notify you when I go on dates with him, happy?” Tang Yun said, a little frustrated. “It won’t be that easy even if I give you these chances, it’s not that easy to be a mistress!”

“We’ll see!” Xiaoxiao almost jumped up and cheered—Tang Yun was too young and soft! Xiaoxiao had already finished her infiltration! Of course, Lin Yi would fall for her now that she had so many opportunities, there was no way Xiaoxiao would fail now!

“Fine, we’ll see then!” Tang Yun smiled coldly. “I’m not scared of you!”

“Lin Yi’s back. Hope you keep your word, big sis Tang Yun?” Xiaoxiao called Tang Yun that so that her identity as a mistress would be solidified. Now Tang Yun couldn’t back down anymore!

“Sure, Lil’ sis Xiaoxiao!” Tang Yun purposefully emphasized the four words as well.

Xiaoxiao was bursting with happiness. She sure was lucky today! As long as Tang Yun didn’t deny her, then what did she have to worry about?

Tang Yun, on the other hand, smiled a little as she looked at the happy Xiaoxiao. Just who was falling for who’s trick in this fight?

Tang Yun wasn’t dumb at all—she smoothly used the friction between her and Xaixoaio from before and set a trap for Xiaoxiao to step in… The girl was probably still thinking that Tang Yun was agreeing to everything due to the heat of the moment.

But this was a win for both sides too, wasn’t it?

After Lin Yi returned, Tang Yun gave him a look that signaled the completion fo the deed. This surprised Lin Yi—Tang Yun had finished an agreement this fast with Xaioxaio? He felt his perspective on Tang Yun change for the better.

But he pretended as if nothing’s changed. He placed down three bowls of dumplings on the table, except Xiaoxiao’s bowl didn’t have seaweed pieces.

“Huh? How come I have less stuff in here than you guys? That’s not fair!” Xiaoxiao said. Lin Yi wasn’t this biased towards Tang Yun, was he?

“Seaweed is seafood, so I didn’t give you any.” Lin Yi said. “You fainted right after eating seafood back in Yanjing—do you have an allergy?”

“Ah!” Xiaoxiao only then realized that it was seafood inside Tang Yun and Lin Yi’s bowl. Lin Yi remembered this? Even Xiaoxiao herself had almost forgotten, and Lin Yi’s efforts warmed her heart. It seemed that Lin Yi did care about her, at least much more than he cared for a normal student!

“Yeah, but a little is fine,” Xiaoxiao said happily. “Good thing you saved me that time I fainted in the shower!”

Xiaoxiao, naturally, said that in front of Tang Yun on purpose, just to show how close she was with Lin Yi!

But she wasn’t expecting for Tang Yun to look so composed, as if this wasn’t anything worth bringing up at all! She only gave an ‘oh’ and left it at that! After all, she’d already understood Lin Yi’s intentions judging by how he rejected Feng Tianlong today!

Lin Yi might have some good feelings towards Xiaoxiao, but he didn’t like her that much! Lin Yi was already hesitating when Tainlong asked him to pursue Xiaoxiao, so how was it possible that he had some other relationship with Xiaoxiao? So sTang Yun didn’t give much care to the shower stuff Xiaoxiao was saying. Xiaoxiao made it sound intimate and all, but who knew what the situation was?

Plus, Tang Yun had already made up her mind to let Lin Yi pretend to be Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend. Even if anything did happen between them, Tang Yun would only ignore it, reminding herself that there was no point to fight for Lin Yi when her opponent was a dying girl!

So what if she won or lost? Xiaoxiao’s fatal sickness had decided the ending of everything! There was no way she could snatch Lin Yi from her!

Seeing Tang Yun’s impassiveness made her feel a little left out and troubled. She looked at Tang Yun and continued. “Big sis Tang Yun, Lin Yi seems to treat me quite well? He even knows about my seafood allergy!”

“I’ll remember it too, Xiaoxiao sis. I’ll refrain from ordering seafood the next time we eat.” Tang Yun’s voice was calm, but her expressions weren’t. It was like she was barely holding it back!

Accepting Xiaoxiao and becoming true friends with her, after all, required time! It didn’t matter how generous Tang Yun wanted to be, she couldn’t become friends with her in just one day! Plus, she had to pretend as if she had no choice!

After some more interaction, things would change, and it would progress naturally. Xiaoxiao wouldn’t have suspicions then.

Xiaoxiao was quite happy at that expression. Heh heh, she thought, regretting it now, aren’t you, big sis? Now you’ve got a mistress for no reason! Wahahaha, I’m such a genius, good job, Xiaoxiao! You’re so smart!

Xiaoxiao made a fist as her heart was filled with hope and fighting spirit.

Tang Yun, on the other hand, was amused… but had to put on an angry face on the outside…
