Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Returning the Favor Tenfold as Taught by Second Brother
Orange let out a piercing scream, and Lin Zhi roared, “What’s all this noise? Won’t you let people sleep, every single one of you is restless!” Lin Zhi pulled off the quilt that covered her head and looked over. The moment she saw the scene, her roar abruptly stopped, and she was stunned.
Orange was in an extremely sorry state, with water dripping from her hair, and her pajamas soaked as well, looking as if she’d been fished out of water.
At the bedside, Tao Ti stood holding an empty washbasin.
It took Lin Zhi a good while to collect herself, and she pointed at Tao Ti, asking, “What did you do?”
Facing Lin Zhi’s interrogation, Tao Ti didn’t feel guilty in the least, she declared righteously, “She started it by pouring juice on my bed!”
Tao Ti firmly remembered what Second Brother had said before he left, “Little darling, don’t get bullied in the show team. If anyone dares to bully you, remember to return it tenfold!”
Tao Ti thought: Ten times a cup of juice should be about a basinful, right? That should be enough, right?
Hearing Tao Ti’s righteous answer and seeing the shifty look in Orange’s eyes, then looking at the dark juice stain on Tao Ti’s bedsheets,
Lin Zhi remembered that today, she was the only one who had juice. No wonder Tao Ti, after her shower, had asked her if she was the perpetrator.
If it was Orange who did it, what was her aim? To create discord? A case of “when the snipe and the clam grapple, it’s the fisherman who profits”!
Lin Zhi wasn’t some naive, sweet girl. Despite her youth, she came from a good background. The relatives and friends in her household were all no simple characters, plus she had started acting in TV dramas from a young age, having mingled in various drama crews. She wouldn’t miss these little tricks.
As soon as it clicked, she understood!
Orange was trying to frame her, making herself and Tao Ti enemies!
Lin Zhi jumped off the bed, went straight over to Orange, and grabbed her sopping wet hair, demanding, “You’re trying to set me up? Well, you rotten Orange, black-hearted Orange! I’ll teach you a lesson!”
Lin Zhi swung back her hand for a hefty slap. Orange tried to fight back, but the indolent Orange was no match for the tough, athletic, cool girl Lin Zhi, who adored sports. Orange was soon overpowered and flattened on the bed.
Lin Zhi thought hitting the face was too conspicuous, so she pinned Orange down on the bed, pulled down her pants, and started smacking her butt!
“Let go of me right now, do you want to die!”
“I know I was wrong, please, let me go, wuu wuu wuu…”
From being aggressively defiant to weakly crying, Orange was no longer able to resist.
Tao Ti’s mouth was agape, wide enough to fit an egg; she was completely astonished.
After Lin Zhi had thoroughly tamed Orange, Tao Ti clapped on the spot, her chubby little hands working hard, “So impressive! So cool!”
Lin Zhi tossed her hair provocatively, flicking a strand of bangs on her forehead with flair, and struck a cool chick pose, lifting her chin high, “Don’t fall too hard for me~”
Tao Ti was amused by her antics and started giggling behind her hand, laughing “giggle giggle giggle.”
Lin Zhi looked towards Tao Ti’s bed and, finding her unusually easy on the eyes, called out, “You can’t sleep in your bed, come over here, let’s sleep together!”
Tao Ti’s eyes instantly sparkled; she had never slept with someone else before! She was so happy!
Lin Zhi, looking straight into Tao Ti’s excited little eyes, boasted with satisfaction, and teased again, “I told you not to fall too hard for me, simmer down now!”
The two girls got into bed, snuggled under a single quilt. Tao Ti accidentally touched Lin Zhi, who couldn’t help but start laughing, “Stop it, I’m ticklish!”
Tao Ti’s eyes shone, and her hands mischievously got to work.
“Ouch! Stop scratching me!” Lin Zhi, unable to beg off and not one to be outdone, scratched back and complained, “How come you’re not ticklish? That’s so unfair! I give up, I surrender!”
Tao Ti laughed, saying, “I’m the real big sis here!”
“Alright, alright, I’ll call you big sis from now on!” Lin Zhi quickly relented.
