Luckily Di Wu and Mu Si’s heads dodged to the side and their wine was spat on the floor before it could get on the barbecued meat.
Sima You Yue’s hands paused in the air with the wine cup in her hand.
“Who did you say you were?” Di Wu looked at Si Yue as if he saw an alien.
“My name is Si Yue!” Si Yue said proudly with her chin up.
“Are you the Young Miss from Si clan in North City?”
“Eh? How did you guys know?” Si Yue looked at them curiously, “No one knows about me coming out to play.”
“…”
Di Wu and Mu Si stared at her in horror before they shifted their gaze to Sima You Yue, it was too much of a coincidence!
“Why?” Si Yue looked at them.
Their gazes were too strange!
“Ahem, nothing.” Sima You Yue coughed twice and said, “We’re just curious why a Young Miss from the North City would come to South city.”
“Just to have some fun!” Si Yue continued, “I’m bored of there and wanted to see how other places looked like. So I just came out for a spin!”
“How long have you been out for?”
“Not long, about a year.” Si Yue continued, “I’ve only been to East City, but you guys know that there isn’t anything fun in East City, so I came to South City!”
“Cough cough, it’s not that long.” Sima You Yue lowered her head and took a sip of the wine to cover up her embarrassment.
She embarrassed herself big time, the identity she came up with was actually real, moreover, she met the real person in less than a day. The chances of it happening were so slim but she was the only one who got it.
“I haven’t gotten your names!”
“I’m Di Wu, this guy here is Mu Si.” Di Wu said.
“What about you?” Si Yue asked while looking at Sima You Yue.
Sima You Yue initially wanted to cook up some names, but seeing her quick witted pupils, she said, “I’m Sima You Yue.”
“Hey! I’m Si Yue, you’re Sima You Yue, our names are somehow similar!” Si Yue said excitedly.
“Hur hur….” Of course, my first and last name added up to your name!
Si Yue felt close to Sima You Yue as their names were similar, but He Bo who was sitting at a side was deep in contemplation.
“Oh right You Yue, who barbecued these meat? It’s tasty, I haven’t eaten such delicious barbecued meat before!” Si Yue was in a great mood eating barbecued meat while sipping on fruit wine.
Wasn’t that too pleasurable!!
“I made it. I had a show tonight and I thought it would be boring, so I made Mu Si some supper.” Sima You Yue said.
“These are made by you! Is this wine yours as well?”
“Mm, I made it when I was bored.” Sima You Yue snatched Little Spirit’s credit bluntly.
“Wow, you’re amazing! The ones you made are tastier than mine!” Si Yue admired.
As a Young Miss in Si clan who loved food, she knew how to cook delicious food as well, but those that she thought were nice were far from the good food and fine wine before her eyes.
The food on the table was finished quickly after she joined in, Sima You Yue stood up as she saw the crumbs of the barbecued meat and said, “I’ll go make some more food for you guys.”
“Sure sure, I want to see how you do it anyway.” Si Yue continued, “Can I watch?”
“Of course you can, it’s not a secret anyway.”
Sima You Yue came to the barbecued rack and started the fire from the charcoal, she then barbecued the meat when the charcoal turned red.
Si Yue came over when she started barbecuing, she took note of every step carefully and compared it with the way she usually cooked and realised that her method was much better than her own.
“Do you intend to just leave them there?” She asked as she looked over to the five people in the array.
“Aren’t you curious who they are?” Sima You Yue questioned.
From the start when she came in, her focus was on the barbecued meat and wine, never once did she mention about the people in the array.
“Although I don’t know who they are, I know what they wanted to do.” Si Yue continued, “In the afternoon, I heard that they were planning to catch a beauty tonight, that’s why I followed and wanted to be a hero, but I didn’t expect that you’d handle it yourself.”
Sima You Yue frowned and looked at her doubtfully.
She was wondering why a Young Miss like that would come to a slum area like Mu Si’s house, it turned out that she followed these people here.
“Eh, You Yue, they came here for you, what do you plan to do to them?” Si Yue asked.
Sima You Yue asked while brushing the seasoning on the meat, “What would you do if it was you?”
Si Yue gave it a thought and said in seriousness, “If it was me, I will chop off their limbs, dig out their eyes, cut off their tongue and ears and turn them into swine. Then apply poison to their injuries and there will be worms all around their wounds, wait till the worm finishes sucking their blood, then I’ll let them die.”
“…..”
A few drops of sweat flowed down Sima You Yue’s forehead, she thought Si Yue was a kind hearted Young Miss, to her surprise, her answers were unexpected of her. Looked like there were no good people in Ghost City!
“You Yue, what do you think of my idea?” She asked as she blinked at Sima You Yue.
“I’m not sure, but just by thinking about it, don’t you think that it will affect one’s appetite?” Sima You Yue asked.
“Did it?” Si Yue didn’t feel so, “I won’t be looking at them when I’m eating anyway, so it won’t affect my appetite!”
Sima You Yue shook her head while laughing, what a pure yet ruthless woman!
“You haven’t told me your plan!” Si Yue chased.
“I don’t have a plan.” Sima You Yue continued, “I’ve already told them that I’ll spare their life if they can walk out of my array. Their life will be mine if they can’t get out when the sun rises!”
“Your array is so complicated, I won’t be able to get out the whole night even if I’m the one who gets in. Look at them, they don’t even know about arrays, I guessed they don’t have to come out in this lifetime.” Si Yue said affirmably.
The faces of those people in the array became heavier when they heard her. It showed that Si Yue knew about arrays when she came into the array and didn’t get trapped. There were no changes even after attacking the array for so long, they became restless after they heard what she said.
Sima You Yue quickly barbecued a few plates of meat and Si Yue started eating happily. Mu Si who was still hungry, ate with Si Yue.
“Young Miss, since they can’t come out, we don’t have to keep watch here, right?” Di Wu wanted to rest after eating to his content.
“Don’t rush, we still have other guests, let’s wait slowly.”
She took out some melon seeds to snack on as she spoke.
