Little Miss Heiress

"But wouldn't it be better if she knew we were being attacked?" Li Hua asked her, the three of us groaned, "Do you want to involve an outsider into an internal battle? the less, the better!" Fei Xian Jie confessed, "Haizimen* you shouldn't focus on that pretty teacher of yours too much," He cackled as his spirit weapon was performed. We turned to him and gave him all our attention as well as the other two men behind him.

"Give me a proper fight, Kids!"

"Li Hua, you also try to do something!" You shouted, she averted her gaze nervously as if afraid to do anything. Dammit I have to focus or this man'll slit our throats the moment we look away, he seems to have come with nothing except for a hood and a belt strong enough to hold more than 120 items. Good, it means he's come prepared. "Fei Xian Jie! What else can you do with your spirit weapon?!" You asked as you held back the assassin.

"I have two other abilities but most of them are useless-"

"I'll finish him..." Qiqi mumbled as she took out her spirit weapon, it was shaped like a bun, a delicious steamy out of the oven bun.

"Uh..."

"Qiqi..."

"Hm?"

"What was that supposed to do?!"

"I was just feeding him..." She mumbled tilting her head as if confused by her own actions.

Are you kidding me?! but, Woah...that smells...wooh! I want one too... I cried, she threw it at the assassin as he caught it with his mouth, She must have something up her sleeve. Is she planning on choking him with the bun once he's finally gobbled it down? Or did she put poison in it? Ooh! I wonder if she-

"Xiao Yan...I only made him eat it...there's nothing special about my buns..." She mumbled, it was almost as if she already knew what I was thinking. She must be really powerful, I have such a cool Upperclassman! hehe. The man ate it right away and cackled, "Mm! Kekekeke~ Am I gonna die from poisoning? Kekeke~ I am immune to- Blergh! w..hat...did yo...u...?" He started to lose consciousness and fell to the ground.

Woah she's real scary...her straight face and silent anger is not to be messed with...I gulped as I turned to the poisoned man and took his wrist checking his pulse. He seems to have fainted, not due to the poison. Could it be that she attacked him on purpose just to distract him? Ah...

"Please show yourself." I demanded, fortunately it was only Aziel. He smiled nervously, if I'm right, he must be good at spotting someone's weak spots. It's better if I just try to stay calmer next time and don't attack recklessly. But this man, his face looks familiar?

"Li Hua, Have you seen this man before?"

"Hm? Ah! He's on the wanted list."

"What?!"

"Li Hua you should be more careful in the future! You don't know what could happen next time!"

"Well, that's because I placed him on the wanted list...hehe,"

"Li Hua, Are you really here because you ran away?" I asked her, Fei Xian and Qiqi looked at me in worry, I got up, done examining his body and was a few inches away from her face. "Hm? I-I don't know what you're talking about!" She brushed off, "Oh?" Li Hua felt shivers run down her spine as she had been holding her gaze on mine for a while. Something about me felt off.

"Li Hua, if you don't feel like telling anyone here, then get stronger. Strong enough to protect your fellow classmates and teachers," You shrugged off, "Of course, that is, if you're going to keep staying here. If you're going to stay, then at least become strong enough to not get us involved," You told her off. Something feels off, If she's so rich and powerful, then why here? What is so good about this run down school? I just have to keep watching her for now.

"Aya~ You're being too much, Xiao Yan," Li Hua giggled, her voice almost to that of a whisper but I heard it alright. This wasn't the time to worry about that though, because it's better to put on a poker face rather than show her my true feelings. I need to talk to master, if she doesn't know about this soon enough then-

"Then what?" A monotonous voice asked, I turned to find the short Qiqi standing next to me, "I don't think it's a good idea to hide too much about one another."

"I think it's okay what she did."

"What?"

"Xiao Yan, you can't expect to meet a person and know everything about them at a single glance. I can only tell you, that she will not harm us," Her eyes still calm and peaceful like there was an ocean hidden beneath her blue eyes. How did she know? Is she also on her side? What if-

A warm hand patted my shoulder in reassurance, "You're overthinking things, Xiao Yan," She said with a cold and dull voice, It's strange, her words are meant to reassure me but her voice is contradicting. I nodded and headed to bed, trying not to give it much thought

------------------------------------------------------------

"Alright! It's time to wake up!" Master barged into the room, Fei Xian slept with drool in her sleep, Qiqi slept peacefully, and Li Hua slept like a princess, while you, You slept face-first.

strands of hair were falling over Fei Xian's face as I glanced at her, my eyes couldn't blink in harmony anymore either. "Mmm~ It's too early Nainai..." I groaned switching sides.

"Eh..." Master sweatdropped, "Ahem! Let's see how any of you manage to get my special french toast before it runs out," She teased as she had already left. I jumped and glanced at the other girls with challenging gazes, "I wonder if your Master's food is as good as My Chef's," Li Hua looked at me skeptically as she powdered her face, I smirked in triumph, "Well then, that means more for me, that is, if you want to starve," I giggled slipping on my asymetrical white dress.

With a somewhat lavender decorative armor over it and golden linen and a white choker that hung ribbons from my neck lamely. Li Hua had a very peculiar sense of style too. "Hm? Oh no no no no no!" Li Hua had a worried expression on her face as she eyed me from head to toe, "?"

"Hah...What is with your clothes? Have you been wearing those everyday?" She questioned me, I simply nodded, I don't get what's wrong with my clothes. They're nice to move on and the hems aren't as long for me to trip over, so then could it be she found a flaw that wouldn't allow to me to move in it? Or is it that she just doesn't like it?

"Yu Yan, you definitely cannot wear those disgusting drags, right? And your pimples! For god's sake! Wear a facial mask! I even hace a few dozen packages brought for me last night!" She rummaged through her things and brought me a phosphyrous flower and hair clips, with facial masks and a few hair ribbons.

"This will simply not do! We are going to give you a makeover!" I looked at Fei Xian and Qiqi for help but they'd already run away, "Li Hua, w-we can talk this out, right? I-I- I don't want to be late for breakfast!" I stuttered, she nodded in acknoledgement, but then proceeded with her original plan.

"Well, Don't worry! I'll bring over a 3-Star Chef to make us some food!" She grinned like a demon, no! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME!!

------------------------------------------------------------

"Jiejie? What happened to your face?" Xiao Wei worriedly asked, I didn't even want to mention my suffering. Li Hua and I had already arrived at the cafeteria just in time, "You guys arrived 15 minutes before breakfast ends..." Qiqi mentioned, I gulped down all the food I could, Wah! I knew it! Nainai managed to make my favorite! Mm! Strawberry

"Haha yeah, WHO happened to your face?" Fei Xian snickered, "Your Face is so shiny..."

"I know right?! I left her so clean and proper!" Li Hua gloated satsified with her work, well, her "Masterpiece" They all began to laugh at my face, "Hahahahaha!~ Xiao Yan! You might as well become a diamond!" She mocked me, I scrunched my face at her and pouted, how dare she! Hmph!

Hah...but it's nice to see them smile and laugh, last night wasn't that enlightening.

I sighed and walked over to an empty seat next to Xiao Wei and stared at him happily, "J-Jiejie? Do I have something on my face?" He asked with a flushed expression, I shook my head, "No, you're just cute," I teased, there was a nice lively atmosphere in the kitchen as we all laughed and smiled happily. Honestly, I didn't want this moment to end, I hadn't smiled for a while ever since I transmigrated.

I want the atmosphere to be like this everyday, but that's just wishful thinking. I have to make it happen first! I pondered as the others around me chattered away.

CLAP! CLAP!

A dark aura was emitted from behind my back as I heard snickering and cackling, it almost sounds like those people they call, "witches" it can only be one person. I sweatdropped almost embarassed from her reaction, "BUAHAHAHA! Now you're going to start your hellish training! KEKEKEKE!~"
