The Lovely Heiress Is Actually A God Beast

”Don’t know.” ”Know.” Both answered Little Fatty simultaneously.

Little Fatty was confused: ”So do you know each other or not?”

Little Taotie looked at Hua Jinyan with the same puzzled expression, waiting for an answer.

Hua Jinyan firmly said: ”Don’t know!”

The transfer student approached, still exuding a celestial and aloof demeanor, but when met with Hua Jinyan’s indifferent gaze, seemed somewhat hurt: ”Don’t you remember? I attended your birthday party.”

Hua Jinyan replied blandly: ”It’s been a long time since I had a birthday party.”

Ever since going to Shaolin Temple, he hadn’t held a birthday party. The last one was before he met Little Taotie; it was something he did very reluctantly when his parents organized it for him. They seemed to have invited many people, but throughout the whole event, he never looked at the guests and was simply immersed in his own world.

”Did you ever have a birthday party?” Little Taotie asked curiously.

After they met, Hua Jinyan seemed to spend his birthdays at the villa. Early in the day, his parents would arrive by helicopter, deliver gifts, and they would gather for a meal.

Hua Jinyan’s attitude toward Little Taotie was completely different, not with that slight detached tone, but gently said: ”I don’t like birthdays. When I was very young, my parents loved hosting birthday parties for me, inviting many people my age to celebrate. But those people, I didn’t know any of them nor wished to communicate with them.”

He leaned close to Little Taotie’s ear, whispering: ”Those people, they were never clean. They always brought ghosts to my birthday party. They annoyed me.”

Little Taotie blinked and then stealthily glanced at the aloof transfer student, whispering: ”She doesn’t have anything dirty on her.”

Hua Jinyan didn’t even spare the girl a glance, ”Maybe she came to my birthday party, but I don’t remember her, so naturally, I don’t know her.”

Little Fatty saw them whispering and leaned in for gossip: ”Speak louder, let me hear too.”

Hua Jinyan took Little Taotie’s hand and walked off, ”Mind your own business, class is about to start.”

Just as he finished speaking, the dismissal bell rang.

Little Fatty hurried to catch up with them: ”Wait for me!”

The aloof transfer student stood alone in the corridor, coldly staring at Little Taotie’s back.

”Tsk, your gaze is about to pierce her.” A voice came from the tree.

The aloof transfer student looked over to see a sparrow perched on the tree, holding a little flower in its beak.

”Go away.” Though she looked like a celestial fairy, her gaze was fierce when angry.

The sparrow was startled, chirping and screeching: ”It scared the bird! You asked me to find information on Qing Luan, there’s a lead. If you’re free, send a portion of your Divine Soul to the Netherworld, maybe you’ll find something.”

The aloof transfer student spoke in a deep voice: ”...So it’s in the Netherworld.”

The sparrow chirped: ”You promised me a reward, don’t skimp on that.”

The aloof transfer student flung her hand, but nothing happened, and she furrowed her brow, retracting her hand.

The sparrow laughed: ”That sliver of Divine Soul is too weak. You’ve stripped away all Mana to take human form, you’re just a mortal now, trying to renege on your debt?”

”Since you know I’m merely a mortal now, why not seek my main soul for the reward?”

”Am I stupid? If I go looking for your main soul, I’d be annihilated within seconds! I’m sticking to you; if you don’t give me the reward, I’ll bother you every day, or maybe whisper something to those two kids, hehe, and by then, you can’t blame me for spilling your secrets!”

”Annoying!”

The sparrow chirped: ”I should return to my main body. Remember to fulfill your promise, I’ll come find you tomorrow.”

The chirping faded, and a sparrow fell from the tree, lifeless, as if it had been dead for a long time.
