Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 268: Hate!
“Finally, this day has come…”
Qiao Sang’s consciousness returned to reality, and she immediately opened her phone to rewatch several breakup scenes from the melodramatic romance dramas she had found online in the past few days.
Although she had enough confidence in her primary plan, it was better to be safe than sorry.
To be cautious, it was best to prepare several backup plans in advance.
“Ya…”
Ya, who was sound asleep beside her, suddenly shivered violently, as if he had dreamt of something.
…
Making Water Luyana fall out of love was a big deal.
To focus entirely on this important matter for 24 hours, Qiao Sang decisively called her homeroom teacher to ask for leave the next day.
Ever since the Vice Principal had helped her ask for leave a few times, her homeroom teacher had specifically introduced his contact information during class, saying that she could contact him directly for anything, including asking for leave.
When saying the words “directly” and “asking for leave,” her homeroom teacher had smiled while looking at her, and Qiao Sang naturally understood.
After she hung up the phone, Yang Du, who had just burrowed into Niduola’s belly, heard the conversation and stepped out, yawning as he said, “Since you’re not going to school, I’ll go upstairs and catch up on some sleep.”
“Don’t,” Qiao Sang glanced towards the courtyard, then lowered her voice and mysteriously told Yang Du, “Today might be the last day of your mission.”
Yang Du: “!!!”
The last day? Qiao Sang’s words immediately energized Yang Du.
After breakfast, while Water Luyana was still drinking milk, Qiao Sang called Ya and Little Qunbao into the room.
“Do you know what day it is today?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Ya.”
“Xun!”
Ya and Little Qunbao shook their heads.
Qiao Sang said seriously, “Today is a good day for a breakup.”
“Ya…”
Ya had a bad premonition, and his body instantly tensed up.
“Xun!”
Little Qunbao’s eyes, however, immediately lit up.
Qiao Sang said earnestly, “Water Luyana’s successful evolution depends on your performance. You both remember what I told you last time, right?”
“Ya…”
“Xun!”
…
Plan One: Double Betrayal.
This was the inspiration Qiao Sang got from Yang Du.
As long as Water Luyana thought that Ya and Little Qunbao were getting intimate, she would surely be heartbroken, devastated, and evolve on the spot!
When Water Luyana finished drinking her milk, what she saw was Little Qunbao and Ya coming out face-to-face.
“Lulu?” Water Luyana tilted her head.
“Ya…”
“Xun~”
Ya and Little Qunbao acted as if no one else was around, sticking close together as they headed towards the courtyard.
Once in the courtyard, realizing that Water Luyana hadn’t followed, they exchanged a glance and turned back to the living room.
Water Luyana, drinking her newly opened milk, watched Ya and Little Qunbao’s actions with a confused expression.
“What’s wrong with your Yan Ling Dog and Treasure Hunting Fairy?” Yang Du asked, sitting on the sofa.
“I don’t know either, maybe they just have a good relationship,” Qiao Sang said with a smile.
When she said this, she deliberately raised her voice a little.
Having said so much, Water Luyana should understand, right… Qiao Sang subtly glanced at Water Luyana from the corner of her eye.
She saw Water Luyana holding her milk and drinking it in small sips, completely oblivious to any sense of “betrayal.”
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment and quickly gave Ya and Little Qunbao a meaningful look.
Little Qunbao received the signal, his eyes full of fighting spirit, and he immediately turned and gave Ya a loud “smack” kiss.
“Ya…”
Ya’s body stiffened, but remembering his mission, he forced a terribly awkward smile.
Water Luyana’s eyes widened slightly, but she continued to drink her milk.
Something wasn’t right… Qiao Sang thought for a long time but couldn’t figure out where the problem was, so after five minutes, she called Water Luyana into the room.
“Do you feel that Ya and Little Qunbao are a bit off?” Qiao Sang asked tactfully.
“Lulu.”
Water Luyana nodded.
“What’s off about them?” Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up, and she continued to ask.
“Lulu.”
“Lulu…”
Water Luyana answered seriously; it thought Ya and Little Qunbao sticking their heads together was very strange, and Ya not going to training was also very strange.
Qiao Sang tried asking, “Could it be that Ya and Little Qunbao’s relationship has made a qualitative breakthrough, and they’re together? Ya wants to spend more time with Little Qunbao, which is why he didn’t go to training.”
“Lulu…”
Water Luyana was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and laughed as if she had heard a joke.
Qiao Sang was bewildered: “What are you laughing at?”
“Lulu!”
Water Luyana gave a “you’re so silly” expression.
Ya and Little Qunbao are the same gender, how could they be together?
Qiao Sang was silent for two seconds, then said, “Love knows no gender.”
“Lulu.”
Water Luyana patted Qiao Sang with her paw, signaling her not to overthink it.
Little Qunbao isn’t nearly as good-looking as I am, it trusts Ya’s taste.
“Xun!!”
Little Qunbao, who was secretly listening in, cried and floated out at this point.
Qiao Sang: “…”
Qiao Sang thought, “Don’t panic.” Fortunately, she had foresight; if Plan One didn’t work, there was still Plan Two…
Plan Two: Direct Rejection.
Although this wasn’t as painful as Plan One, being directly rejected face-to-face by someone she liked would surely cause Water Luyana, with her tsundere and sensitive personality, to be so upset that she would evolve on the spot!
At Qiao Sang’s instruction, Ya asked Water Luyana to meet him in the courtyard.
Four heads were pressed against the glass door connecting the living room to the courtyard.
“What’s going on? You and your Pets feel strange today,” Yang Du asked.
“I’ll tell you later,” Qiao Sang said casually, watching the activity in the courtyard.
“Xun…” Little Qunbao’s sadness came and went quickly; he looked at Ya and Water Luyana, his eyes darted, and he floated out excitedly while invisible, ready to watch the drama up close.
“Bang!”
Niduola was stunned when he saw this and also tried to go over while invisible, but he ended up crashing into the glass door.
Yang Du rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on and finding it hard to watch.
Then, as if he remembered something, he waved his hand to summon Niduola back, then formed hand seals and summoned the Deep Sea Swamp Monster.
Qiao Sang’s attention was entirely on Water Luyana, completely unaffected by her surroundings.
In the courtyard.
Ya and Water Luyana stood face to face.
As time passed, Water Luyana’s expression changed from shy to puzzled.
“Lulu?”
Seeing that Ya didn’t speak for a long time, Water Luyana finally couldn’t help but call out in confusion.
Ya’s body stiffened, his claws dug into the ground, and after struggling for a long time, his face turned red before he finally managed to say the words his Yu Beast Master had taught him.
“Ya Ya!”
After speaking, Ya breathed a sigh of relief.
He finally said it; this was much harder than battling…
“Lulu?!”
Water Luyana showed an expression of disbelief.
You don’t like me?!
“Ya!”
Ya nodded vigorously.
“Lulu?”
Water Luyana took a step back, her face full of hurt.
You clearly said that if I stayed and signed a contract, we could always be together.
“Ya…”
Ya recalled, then nodded.
He had indeed said that…
“Lulu?”
Water Luyana’s ears drooped.
Was that a lie?
“Ya Ya!”
Ya quickly shook his head.
He wasn’t lying!
Water Luyana’s hurt expression froze, and she shyly glared at Ya.
Then, she ran off…
He said he didn’t like her, even though they were going to be together forever. How annoying!
