Chapter 45 -45 What a night, with the moon obscured and the wind high

The reputation of being good children they touted had taken root in people’s hearts, so when they said the original owner was not good, everyone believed it was true.

But after today, that might not be certain anymore. You have to understand, these children were the apple of everyone’s eye in the village—who would want their own child to be aggrieved?

No matter how good or adorable other people’s children are, they’re still not your own, right?

So, after this, who knows how much goodwill they’ll have left with strangers?

Bai Yu was particularly proud and arrogant. Having faced such humiliation today, might he lose his composure and take action?

You see, the Bai Yu of now is not the same Bai Yu of the future—although sinister to the core, he was able to wear a warm smile on his face.

In the end, none of them have started their apprenticeships to practice their skills, and their Combat Power is wanting. But the original owner was a strongman, and as long as she practiced diligently in the future, it wasn’t certain she couldn’t beat them. In the face of absolute physical strength, schemes and tricks are garbage.

Moreover, they would definitely not do anything in public, although in the original owner’s memory, it wasn’t until she matured and tried to plot against the group pet that they took action. But Bai Zhi didn’t agree.

Why did everyone so readily believe that Bai Zhi was not a good child?

Why was Ye Xiu indifferent toward her?

Why did they so easily break the original owner’s hand without anyone questioning it? All of this just didn’t seem right.

Ah, why is this so troublesome? Indeed, everything in a novel is just a framework—even the original owner’s memories are the same. Everything could happen in countless ways because of her changes.

All she had to do was not follow them when they left the place, and then everything would be different.

Bai Zhi didn’t ask for much—don’t offend me, and I won’t offend you. But if they insisted on coming forward, she would face them head-on.

If she couldn’t handle them now, what about the future? A future completely different from the plot.

The original owner had nothing, but Bai Zhi wouldn’t end up with nothing.

“So you still want me to forgive them?”

Bai Fei just didn’t understand. Wasn’t this the same as letting them off the hook? They should have been severely punished by their father at that time.

“Don’t you think it’s more painful for them to apologize to you? You know, all this time, they’ve believed they were the ones in the right.”

Such proud people now had to apologize to Bai Fei and Bai Zhi, whom they had looked down on. They must be fuming now, not knowing what to do with their anger.

“Cousin, we’re good children, so of course, we should forgive them, right?”

Bai Zhi’s smile seemed ironic, and in such a night, it was indeed a bit scary, but Bai Fei, as if gone mad, suddenly found it… so cool!

Once Bai Zhi said this, Bai Fei quickly caught on, slapped Bai Zhi on the shoulder with gusto, and burst into laughter.

“Right. You’re right, they must be so frustrated now. Haha, Bai Zhi, I like you. From now on, your sister’s got your back!”

Bai Zhi held the garbage, ready to go dump it at the garbage spot—their village had a specific pit for that.

But it was a bit remote, at the edge of the village, so at that moment Bai Fei frowned, tugging at the corner of Bai Zhi’s clothes, somewhat…

“Bai Zhi, the adults can go dump it. Let’s not go, okay?”

It’s dark and frightening at night.

“Cousin, it’s okay. I often used to go dump the garbage late at night. I can go by myself.”

The original owner used to go dump the garbage every night, regardless of the weather—it was a habit they all knew well. Today they must have felt humiliated.

So, might they do something about it?

Bai Yu’s mind was such that setting up some traps should be quite easy for him. And what about Bai Ye, might he be waiting for her at that dark intersection right now?

Several times before, it had been just like this: one of them setting traps, the other lurking in the darkness, purposefully scaring the original owner, then playing a prank that left the original owner tormented by nightmares every time.

Of course, such pranks were always after they felt the original owner had bullied the group pet. And what exactly did this ‘bullying’ consist of?

It was nothing more than the original owner, out of frustration, making the group pet wash dishes while she did laundry herself.

Quite the irony, so she was very curious if she would encounter it today.

She was kind of looking forward to it, raising her head to look at the night sky. The clouds obscured the stars tonight, but still, they allowed moonlight to trickle through the gaps, blurring their view of the path…

What a night with a dark moon and high winds.

On such a day, it really was not bad. In the pitch-black night, who knew what lay at the deep end?

“No, we can’t.”

Bai Fei was clearly scared, but at this moment she looked resolutely at Bai Zhi, gripping her hand somewhat firmly.

“I’m the elder sister; it’s natural that I should accompany you. I’m not afraid.”

She kept telling herself that she wasn’t afraid, she wasn’t afraid, she wasn’t afraid, and that would give her confidence.

Bai Zhi had intended to refuse, but then, her cousin would probably like a surprise. Even if there were no surprises, it was still inspiring to see the young lady’s courage.

“Then, cousin, should we grab a couple of sticks to boost our bravery?”

Bai Zhi looked around and, just right, there were chopped firewood nearby. Although not very long, they were small. She picked one up, weighed it, and it was just the right size.

“Mhm, you’re right. We should indeed pick up sticks for courage.”

Bai Fei also immediately grabbed one. Her eagerness was as if only by quickly securing it could she gain a little more sense of security.

Each of them took one side of the dustpan and held a wooden stick in the other hand.

At some point, the clouds gradually dispersed, and looking up they could see the moonlight tonight, curved like a scythe and extremely beautiful.

So beautiful that Bai Fei couldn’t help but put down her stick and dustpan, stretch out her hands, and make a shape of holding the moon. Just like that, lowering it in front of her eyes, as if she could grasp the moonlight that way.

“Bai Zhi, look how small the moon is!”

Her excitement infected Bai Zhi, who as a child would also pretend to grasp the moon.

“Mhm. Yes…”

And then, as they grew up, they realized that the moon was actually very big and far away, impossibly out of their reach. Holding the moon was nothing more than a dream.

“Cousin, let’s hurry. It’s getting late, and uncle will worry.”

Bai Zhi was more concerned that someone might become impatient.

Actually, the location of the trap was easy to guess. The villagers wouldn’t let just any rubbish be thrown into the waste place. Leaves, soil, and cornstalks, by autumn, would become organic fertilizer.

There was actually a fence around the rubbish pit to prevent children from accidentally falling in, and there was a wooden gate. To enter, one would have to open this gate, which meant that their traps would inevitably be situated by the gate.

“You’re right; let’s hurry.”

It was only then that Bai Fei remembered they still had to go to the waste site. She picked up her stick quickly and continued on with Bai Zhi. In fact, she felt somewhat uneasy inside.
