Already in Danger?

Mu Yue took a deep breath while she was staying near the door. She then opened the door and saw Xiao Yan smiling at her.

"Hello, Mu Yue"

*SLAM*

Mu Yue hurriedly closed the door, not forgetting to lock it. She slowly steps away and turned around.

"F-father I need-"

She did not saw anyone when she turned around. Now she is even more scared. Making her father proud? It was not worth it.

"Umm… father? Are you here? W-where are youuu???? Huhuhu." Mu Yue is so close to crying. Could she really face Xiao Yan?

As for the principal, he already ran away from the area. He knows that Xiao Yan was on the other side as he felt it when he sensed her with spiritual energy.

'I did not know that the secret exits could be used like this. The early years of me running away from paperwork saved me this time.' The principal thought as he was comfortably walking away from the building.

Xiao Yan has been waiting by the door since she stopped making noises. She actually planned to grab Mu Yue and not let her escape. She wanted to educate her but instead had her fingers harmed when the door was slammed close.

The door then slowly opened. Xiao Yan looked at Mu Yue and smiled.

"So… what did you two talked about?"

"Father asked me how I want the house to look like."

"Oh, then why did you slam the door? It hit my fingers." Xiao Yan said as she shows her fingers.

It was a little red but not because of being hit by the door. Cultivators have good physiques, even the Spell Cultivators which has the weakest defense has a body that is tougher than adult mortals. Xiao Yan only felt pain and she have to hurt her fingers herself, enough to make it a little red.

She was a faker in a lot of ways. It was normal for her to know somethings as one. It was her favorite move against Mu Yue.

Mu Yue planned to make up something and blame it to the principal but since Xiao Yan got hurt, she just told a part of the truth.

"I'm sorry, I was just shocked and it was kind of a reflex."

"No problem, do you want to go back to the room?"

"Mhm. Also, I was not told by father on when the house would be built. It looks like we would have to stay at that room for some days."

"You might be wrong about that, Mu Yue. Who knows, the house might be built after we slept."

While going back to their room, Mu Yue was tensed but tried not to show it. It took a lot of effort to keep a straight face as she was definitely crying inside. Xiao Yan not talking about the reason why she got dragged means she was planning to do something.

As she faced the door of their room, Mu Yue felt her legs weakening.

"On second thought, I would like to go around the site. I would be fine alone and you don't have to wait for me, Xiao Yan."

She then turned around. Not even a step and Xiao Yan's hand was at her shoulder.

"It's already late. We are now here so…. inside you go."

Mu Yue was dragged inside while yelling, "The sun is still up! Let go of meeee. "

Inside the room, Mu Yue was sitting at the bed while looking at Xiao Yan who just finished locking the door.

"Hurry Xiao Yan, let me hug you so we can sleep."

"Heh, sorry but that is my line. You and I still have to talk. Like you said, the sun is still up and we have plenty of time to use."

This silenced Mu Yue. Surrendering means failing the mission. Since it would be an interrogation, she have the right to remain silent.

"Alright, I will let you off this time. But it does not mean I will forget it as I will make sure to bring it up again." Xiao Yan decided as she was looking forward to what Mu Yue will do.

Mu Yue still kept her silence as she was lying on the bed. Xiao Yan then mentioned, "I remembered that I promised to cook for you. Make sure to look forward to it."

This intrigued Mu Yue but quickly became nervous as she heard Xiao Yan's next words.

"What happened earlier really bugs me out. I know that what you told me was fake. Confess as early as possible and I might give mercy to you."
