I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

"......"

Yan Ziming patted her head and sighed, "Life... is mostly unsatisfactory!"

"It's clearly my older sister's fault..." Ye Qianxue muttered softly.

"Huh? What did you say?" Yan Ziming didn't hear clearly.

"It's nothing, Big Sister, Qianxue is just hungry~~"

Ye Qianxue suddenly buried herself in Yan Ziming's arms and started to act coquettishly, successfully diverting Yan Ziming's attention.

"Okay, okay, I'll go make you some food now. Hurry up and put your clothes on."

Yan Ziming got up, tossed the clothes scattered on the stool to Ye Qianxue, and went to the kitchen to cook.

Less than two seconds later, the door suddenly opened again, slamming against the wall with a loud "bang," startling Ye Qianxue so much that she straightened up, and the buttons on her shirt flew off.

Catching the flying button, Yan Ziming said expressionlessly:

"I'm giving you a task before I finish cooking: go find Mu Mu, I need to have a serious talk with her."

"Uh-huh."

Ye Qianxue nodded like a chick pecking at rice. Yan Ziming suddenly grinned mischievously and said, "As expected of my little sister, it seems you've grown up! Wear my clothes, I brought an extra set, it's in the closet."

Ye Qianxue blushed and watched Yan Ziming close the door before slowly going to the closet to take out Yan Ziming's spare clothes.

"Hoo—" She buried her head and took a deep breath, chuckling foolishly, "Hehe... the scent of my elder sister."

After laughing like a freak for a while, she remembered the important task her older sister had given her, so she quickly put on Yan Ziming's clothes, looked for the spatial fluctuations left by Mu Mu, and followed the trail.

..........

Mu Mu stood atop the statue formed by the mutated species known as "Xiu Gui," which had been killed by Yan Shan.

This is the highest point in Yong'an, and it holds special significance for the city. Many people visit here every day.

She used her supernatural power to conceal her presence, and gazed around at the surroundings. After a short while, she sighed softly:

"No wonder she's lived this long; I can't possibly guess what she's thinking."

My behavior just now was like a child throwing a tantrum, and compared to Liu Mengxian's composure, I was clearly at a disadvantage.

For some inexplicable reason, Mu Mu felt that Liu Mengxian was somewhat similar to herself.

This is reflected in both behavior and, to some extent, in personality.

Chapter Thirty-Two: In the Name of "Divine Punishment"

Back then, when I volunteered to become Ye Qianxue's teacher, it was like Xiang Zhuang dancing with his sword while aiming at Liu Bang. I had the idea of ​​"shooting the horse before shooting the man" in mind, first making myself someone Ye Qianxue couldn't live without, and then gradually winning over Yan Zimo.

To this end, she used all sorts of methods, including coercion and enticement, and even resorted to any means necessary. In the end, she succeeded and lived a happy and carefree life.

Mu Mu felt that Liu Mengxian was somewhat similar to herself in this respect.

The only difference is that her status has changed. She is now Yan Ziming's teacher. Although it is unknown whether she has feelings for Yan Ziming, Yan Ziming is undoubtedly very concerned about her.

As for their personalities... Mu Mu felt they were very similar; both were so strong-willed.

On the surface, her personality seems to be the complete opposite of Liu Mengxian's. But that's not actually the case; they just express themselves in different ways.

Liu Mengxian is usually very gentle, but this gentleness is actually a deeper kind of coercion that is hard to refuse.

Ironically, this kind of coercion can make people willingly accept it, going along with your wishes, and making a final decision before you even realize it, making it difficult to back out later.

She is like a star in the sky that can never be touched; no one can get close to her, and no one can pluck her from the sky.

"Xian'er, oh Xian'er... should I consider you an enemy or a friend?"

Sensing a slight disturbance in the space, Mu Mu was delighted and stepped into the space, taking the person who was about to emerge with her.

Hotel, Yan Ziming's room.

After tossing Ye Qianxue back onto the bed, Mu Mu smoothed his hair and said with a wicked smile, "My good disciple, why are you following me?"

"My older sister said she needs to talk to you."

Ye Qianxue sat on the bed in a duck-like position and recounted the things Yan Ziming had told her.

"Hmph~~"

Mu Mu narrowed her eyes. The guy who had been avoiding the issue was actually going to take the initiative to talk to her?

Just then, the door opened and Yan Ziming walked in: "Qianxue, dinner is ready."

She glanced at Mu Mu and said to Ye Qianxue, "You go eat first, I have something to tell Mu Mu."

"Ah."

Ye Qianxue darted out in a flash; she didn't want to become the object of their venting here.

"Speak, what do you want to say to me?" Mu Mu crossed her arms and looked at Yan Ziming with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Ahem, I just wanted to talk about the future..."

When he was about to face the enemy, Yan Ziming's initial momentum suddenly vanished, and he spoke without any confidence.

"Huh? What's there to talk about in the future?"

Mu Mu's momentum intensified, and he pressed forward, forcing Yan Ziming to retreat repeatedly.

"Well... um... let me ask you beforehand, what's your opinion of Xian'er?"

"How do you feel about it...? I just thought about it, and I don't know. If I had to choose between liking and disliking, I'd say I like it, albeit reluctantly."

"Phew." Yan Ziming breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't dislike, this answer was a pleasant surprise.

Yan Ziming paused for a moment, then grew a few centimeters taller, instantly suppressing Mu Mu's imposing aura somewhat, and changed the subject:

"It's been about five months since our last match, hasn't it?"

“Four months and twenty-three days,” Mu Mu answered precisely.

"Uh... how come I remember it so clearly?"

"After all, it was rare to see Xiao Momo cry so sadly that day. What was that line again? 'Cute point'? Anyway, I've designated that day as a memorial day~~"

Mu Mu reminisced with a look of blissful delight, while Yan Ziming's face quickly flushed red, and he said in exasperation:

"Ugh! Didn't I tell you I forgot?! I don't want to celebrate those kinds of anniversaries!"

"Oh my gosh~~ Little Momo is so cute when she's angry, and even cuter when she's crying~~"

"Get out of here! We've gone off-topic, let's get back to the point!"

Yan Ziming abruptly steered the conversation back to the main topic, his demeanor shifting dramatically, his gaze sharpening: "Want to try again?"

The atmosphere was stagnant.

A glint of silver light began to flicker in Mu Mu's eyes: "Fine, you can come however you want, whenever you want, I'll grant your request."

Even though their relationship is different now than before, and they cherish each other, there are still some things that cannot be touched.

For example, the question of who is stronger and who is weaker.

Both are exceptional geniuses, and both are proud and arrogant. It would be almost impossible for one of them to completely admit that he is weaker than the other.

Yan Ziming lost that time, but he accepted the defeat wholeheartedly.

but!

She always believed that she had only lost to time. If she had been born earlier... transformed a few years earlier, she was confident that she could have rewritten the course of that battle!

"It's the same bet as before, but with some changes. If I win, you just have to agree to one condition."

Yan Ziming clenched his fist with full confidence, his eyes burning with fierce fire.

Mu Mu smiled contemptuously: "Does the bet work? Lately, when I've been messing with you, you haven't been behaving yourself! You've really grown up, haven't you? I can't control you anymore?"

"..." Yan Ziming's lips twitched.

The word "play" is correct in meaning, but it just sounds awkward and makes me feel really bad. I'm not her plaything!

"That's just because you haven't mastered the skills yet. Besides, I've been cooperating with you properly, okay? It's just that you're too greedy!"

"Tsk... Just a little Momo, it'll be fine if it lies there and lets me play with it for a while..." Mu Mu curled her lip in disdain.

Several veins bulged on Yan Ziming's temples; he was almost driven to madness by Mu Mu's anger.

"I'll just ask you one question: are you in or not?"

"Bet, of course I'll bet. But I have a question; you're already my 'pocket ball' now. If you lose again this time, what can possibly change in your position?"

Mu Mu spoke in an extremely dangerous tone, his ominous gaze sweeping over Yan Ziming's body, causing her to tremble.

"Then use it as you like..."

Yan Ziming blushed so deeply it was almost dripping blood, and stammered, "What should I use?" Mu Mu pressed forward.

"Use whatever you like... any props..."

Yan Ziming had to strain himself to utter the last two words, and his whole body went limp.

"Hey~~ You won't refuse to cooperate this time, will you?"

Mu Mu's eyes gleamed with pleasure, a desire hidden deep within her heart, a desire called "tyranny."
