The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

Jin Rongyan would often be engrossed in reading his medical books.

As for Long Xiaoxi, who did not have any particular hobbies, she would snack whenever she was bored.

The arts and culture teachers in charge of Class B felt extremely helpless after experiencing their unruly behavior during class.

Just why was that so?

It was because Jin Rongyan and Ji Gui would answer every question posed to them without mistakes. However, Long Xiaoxi was a far cry and would never know the answer to their questions. They had no idea what this chubby girl was there for. Is she here to learn more about food? they wondered.

The third lesson of the day was Mandarin.

The teacher taught the three of them two poems written by the ancient poet Li Bai. One was “Seeing Meng Ran Off from the Yellow Building” while the other was “My Thoughts in the Silent Night.”

After explaining the significance of the poems to them, the teacher erased the words on the blackboard and began asking questions. Ji Gui and Jin Rongyan could both answer correctly, regardless of whether they were told to recite the poem or explain the meaning of the stanzas. After they had answered the questions, they proceeded to continue doing their own things.

When it was Long Xiaoxi’s turn, the teacher told her to recite “My Thoughts in the Silent Night,” which was the simpler poem out of the two that they had just learned. “Long Xiaoxi, recite ‘Thoughts in the Silent Night’ once.”

She stood up and answered in her puerile voice, “Moonlight before my bed… Duck and bean sprout soup… Lift my head and I see the moon… Lower my head and I smell the fragrant biscuits.”

The teacher stared at the egg biscuits in front of her on the table, completely lost for words.

“Will you recite the second one too?”

“Teacher, what’s the second one? Please give me a header.”

“What’s after ‘The ancient man leaves the yellow building’?”

“The ancient man leaves the yellow building… Teacher, I don’t know.”

“Will you explain this line, then? I’ve already explained it several times before. Your classmates have also answered correctly. Don’t tell me you didn’t remember anything at all?”

“I know how to explain this.”

“Go ahead,” said the teacher, appearing much more relieved.

“It means that an ancient man died in the yellow building, am I right, Teacher?”

“…!!!”

“Teacher, why do you look so angry?”

“I’m… poisoned. Sit down, Long Xiaoxi.”

After class, Ji Gui burst into laughter and mocked her, “Xiaoxi, you’re so silly. That line means that the author’s old friend is leaving the yellow building.”

“I know I’m very silly, but am I arrogant? Am I haughty? Did I brag and boast?” she said in self-admittance.

Dumbfounded, Ji Gui stared at the snacks on the table and said, “Xiaoxi, stop eating such stuff.”

“Why?”

“You’ll get fat if you keep eating them.”

“Then?”

“You’ll get fatter and fatter and no boys will want to play with you anymore. Look at Yuechan and Bao’er, they’re both so thin and look good in dresses.”

“Oh, what a terrifying truth. Let me calm myself down by eating this biscuit.”

To Ji Gui’s astonishment, she leisurely chowed down on the fragrant and delicious biscuit.

After finishing the biscuit, Long Xiaoxi proceeded to drink some water.

As soon as she reached the pantry, she heard the clear sounds of ongoing laughter.

She craned her neck to see that it was Wen Yuechan who was laughing. Jin Yiheng was present too and was drinking water at the moment.

“She’s just like a hen, what is she laughing about…” Long Xiaoxi muttered under her breath. She entered and called, “Yiheng.”

Upon the sight of her, Wen Yuechan greeted, “Xiaoxi.”

Long Xiaoxi pretended not to hear her and continued to pour herself some water.

Noticing that she was ignoring her, Wen Yuechan said, “Xiaoxi, let’s go skipping later.”

“Nah, it’s too warm outside.”

“Let’s go play together. Yiheng and Wenlun have both agreed too.”

Long Xiaoxi looked up at Jin Yiheng and asked, “Are you going to play too?”

“Teacher organized an activity where we’re supposed to exchange genders and play the games meant for girls, and vice versa. Wenlun and I will be skipping while she and Bao’er are going to play ball.”

“Oh, I see.”

“Yiheng, Godma has come to pick you and Rongyan up,” said Long Wenlun.

“We can’t play today then.” He put down his cup and hurriedly left the pantry.

Wen Yuechan and Long Xiaoxi were left alone. Wen Yuechan rolled her eyes at the latter and said, “Good that you’re not playing. We’ve grouped ourselves in pairs. No one is going to be your partner. I’m glad you’re self-aware.”

Long Xiaoxi sneered, “My brother and Yiheng were assigned to play with you guys by Teacher. They didn’t have a choice. However, I don’t want to stoop to your and Shi Bao’er’s level and play with you guys. What’s wrong with that?”

“I’ve long heard from Ji Gui that you often recite idioms wrongly during Mandarin lessons. Look at you, saying big words like ‘wallow in the mire’…”

“I’m spot on, aren’t I? Not only do I know how to use ‘wallow in the mire’ correctly, I also know what they mean by ‘villains collude together.'”

“Long Xiaoxi, no one here except your brother wants to play with you. You’re as fat as a pig…”

Long Xiaoxi retorted, “Why don’t you say that you’re as skinny as a monkey? No one wants to play with me? Rongyan and Yiheng both enjoy playing with me. So does Dummy. Don’t think Dummy only plays with you two.”

“Playing with such a stupid person like you is an insult to their intelligence.”

Long Xiaoxi scoffed and hollered, “I’m going to tell my Godma to chase you out of here!”

Feeling a little afraid, Wen Yuechan grabbed her and said, “I won’t criticize or mock you again. Will that do?”

Long Xiaoxi shrugged her hand away and clipped, “Don’t touch me.”

Fuming with anger, Wen Yuechan snapped, “Long Xiaoxi, how shameless of you to make use of the adults to chase me out of here. My family is not as wealthy as yours and my godparents aren’t Jin Yiheng’s parents. But is that my fault? You only got to reincarnate into a better family than me. My mother will kill me if I get kicked out of here. Do you really want to see me being beaten to death? I won’t let you off and I’ll haunt you as a ghost.”

Long Xiaoxi stared at her and said, “I’d like to see if your mother will really beat you to death.”

“Long Xiaoxi, you’re going overboard.” Shi Bao’er walked toward them, after which Wen Yuechan hurriedly tried to get Shi Bao’er to defend her.

“Bao’er, Xiaoxi said that she wants to tell Yiheng’s mother to chase me out of here.”

“Is that so?” Throwing her weight around as the oldest child, Shi Bao’er rolled her eyes and sneered, “Long Xiaoxi, who do you think you are? Don’t think you’re that important. My uncle owns this place, your father doesn’t. Okay?”

“I just think I’m very important. What can you do?”

“Oh?” Shi Bao’er decided to stand up for Wen Yuechan and pushed Long Xiaoxi onto the ground with all her might.

Grunting in pain, Long Xiaoxi got up on her feet, feeling embarrassed and exasperated. She removed her crystal slipper from her feet and smacked it onto Shi Bao’er’s face. “How dare you push me!” she hollered.

She then scurried away quickly. Once Shi Bao’er recovered from the shock, she hurriedly took chase while Wen Yuechan followed closely behind.

Long Xiaoxi was running at a rather slow pace. Fortunately, she bumped into Long Wenlun, who was on his way back. She complained, “Brother, Bao’er hit me!”

Seeing that his sister was being bullied, he grabbed Shi Bao’er without hesitation and questioned angrily, “What are you doing?”

“Get lost.”

“I will not.”

“Long Wenlun, are you going to back off or not?”

“Not.”
