Chapter 697 Chapter 697: Kind Tsundere Young Lady!
The perfect copy immediately understood that this young girl definitely had some deep feud with the previous drowned girl.
She actually did not care about their feud at all, but she thought that she might be able to use this to get out of this bad situation.
A trace of cunning light flashed in the perfect copy's eyes as she quickly put on a miserable sorrowful expression and said with a sobbing voice: "I... I am so sorry, Young Miss... I did not know that drowned lady was such a vicious person. If only I knew it earlier, I would not... Sob... Sob... I really regret it right now."
The young girl sighed as she stared at the miserable Tang Li Xue's perfect copy with a pair of eyes full of pity.
"All right, stop crying~! You are a man, right?! How could a man cry so easily?! Don't worry, I will do something to help you get out of this prison!" The young girl said with an annoyed tone and expression.
As someone who was facing a hardcore tsundere (Little Loki) every day, Tang Li Xue's perfect copy could easily see that this young girl was also the same type.
Her mouth might be harsh, but she clearly has a kind and caring heart.
The young girl took out something from her sleeve and threw it at the perfect copy while explaining: "This is a healing pill. The effect might be mediocre for any immortal cultivator, but it should be very good for an ordinary mortal like you. I even might be able to cure your broken hands by tomorrow if you swallow it now."
"Thank... Thank you... very much, Young Miss... You are so kind to me." The perfect copy replied with a touched expression while crawling toward the healing pill and eating it directly with her mouth since both of her hands were still 'broken'.
"Okay... You... Wait for me." The young girl nodded at the perfect copy and hastily ran out from the dark dungeon. It seemed she was really determined to help Tang Li Xue's perfect copy to get out of the prison.
PTUI~!
After making sure that the young girl was already gone from there, the perfect copy spat out the healing pill again.
Even though she believed that the tsundere young girl would not give any poison to her, and she was also completely immune to any poison, but she was still perfectly healthy right now, so she did not want to eat any medicine.
"I hope she really can do something to get me out of here quickly~! This prison smells so bad~! I feel like I will lose my appetite for a few days if I stay here tonight." The perfect copy complained as she sat and leaned back on the prison's wall.
'Stop complaining~! It would not be funny if you got kicked out from there in less than one day! I do not want to face Instructor Lan's wrath if it really happens.' The real Tang Li Xue rebuked her perfect copy.
'Oh, well... I guess you are right. At least, I still have some chance to stay a little bit longer in the Gu Family's mansion and get more important information from here later.' The perfect copy replied while shrugging her shoulder helplessly.
Of course, the perfect copy was still very unconvinced deep in her heart.
Why the hell did she have to suffer all of these things alone while her real self was practicing leisurely in the cozy inn room?!
This is very unfair, right?!
Are there any laws to protect the clone's right out there?!
I really want to file a complaint right now~! I want to sue my real self for abusing me!
Tang Li Xue's expression instantly turned dark as she angrily sent her thought: 'Hey, hey, hey~! Why the hell are you thinking like that?!'
'I did not say anything...' The perfect copy replied with a flat tone.
'But your mind always thinking about suing me~! Besides that, I am practicing diligently to make us stronger, right? How could you say I am practicing leisurely like I am on vacation?!' Tang Li Xue angrily argued back.
When Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy quarrel with each other like a pair of overgrown children, the young girl had already come back to the dark dungeon again with a guard.
Tang Li Xue's perfect copy hastily lay down on the cold floor of the prison again and put back her miserable look.
The guard took out a bundle of keys and opened the prison's door, then the young girl hastily helped the perfect copy to get out of the prison.
"Thank... Thank you very much, Young Miss... You are so kind to me. I do not know anymore how to repay your kindness." The perfect copy murmured with a sobbing voice mixed with a grateful tone.
The young girl humphed and replied in an annoyed tone: "Just make sure that you will not interfere with my deed next time, or I will not help you out anymore!"
"I am so sorry, young miss... Can you please let me know your name, so I can try to repay for your kindness in the future?" The perfect copy asked the young girl.
"My name is Zhu Yan. You can call me Miss Zhu Yan from now on." The young girl generously gave her name.
Zhu Yan helped Tang Li Xue's perfect copy to walk until they reached the young girl's courtyard.
Then Zhu Yan let the perfect copy rest in one of the unoccupied rooms in her courtyard.
Zhu Yan even ordered her maid to call one of the male servants to help the perfect copy clean and bandage the wounds on her hands.
Even though the perfect copy already tried to reject her 'kindness', Zhu Yan still insisted on the male servant helping the perfect copy to handle her wounds.
Without any other choice, the perfect copy could only accept Zhu Yan's 'kindness' again...
When the male servant tried to clean the wounds on her hands, the perfect copy used her [Eyes of Illusion] on the male servant, so the male servant would see the hideous wounds on her arms.
After cleaning and bandaging her arms, the male servant went back to do his own job again while Zhu Yan let Tang Li Xue's perfect copy rest in that unoccupied room for a day.
.....
Meanwhile, the real Tang Li Xue sighed in relief after her perfect copy managed to get out of prison thanks to Zhu Yan's help.
'It is so boring to lie on the bed like a sick person. Should I start to wander around using [Ethereal Form] to look for any information about Princess Yan Fei right now?' The perfect copy asked for Tang Li Xue's opinion.
Tang Li Xue pondered carefully and decided: 'No, let's be more careful from now on. Besides, it is almost dark. The security will definitely be much tighter at night, so you can just take a rest for today. Didn't you complain that I just relaxed in my room before? Now you can also relax in that room.'
'Ey, you still care about that~?! I am just kidding, okay?!' The perfect copy replied with a playful tone.
Tang Li Xue rolled her topaz blue eyes, and she did not bother to argue with her shameless perfect copy anymore since Instructor Mei Lan, Bingbing, and Silly Fox had already come back to the inn.
Actually, they already changed to the other inn after Tang Li Xue's previous incident in order for the others to not suspect them.
Instructor Mei Lan instructed them to move to an inn located much closer to the Gu Family's mansion, so Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy could communicate with each other more easily.
But it was actually because Instructor Mei Lan still did not know that the current range of Tang Li Xue and her perfect copy to communicate and swap with each other was much farther than before since their Spirit Stat had grown many times higher compared to before they participated in the Foxes Hunting Festival.
Right now, Instructor Mei Lan already called Tang Li Xue to attend the meeting in her room as usual.
After they gathered in Instructor Mei Lan's room, Tang Li Xue, Bingbing, and Silly Fox began to tell any information they managed to obtain today.
Silly Fox did not get much information about Gu Shengxin anymore today, but at least he already obtained some clues about Gu Shengxin's behavior yesterday.
Of course, the information Silly Fox got like the places Gu Shengxin usually visited, and any people he usually associated with were actually quite crucial too.
However, the information that Bingbing obtained today was the one that attracted Tang Li Xue's interest the most at this moment.
"After asking so many shopkeepers from the shops near the Gu Family's mansion, I managed to get some information about all the women with high status living in the Gu Family's mansion. I am sure one of them should be Princess Yan Fei~!" Bingbing proudly said.
