Reincarnation: Multi-skilled Goddess Is So Beautiful!

Chapter 237: Even If They Are Your Uncles, They Can’t Bully You

After the meal ended, Zi Yi’s uncles did not immediately leave.

In order to express their apology, the manager had personally served them their tea and desserts.

After the door was closed shut, Dou Jingning was the first to speak up. “We’ve witnessed the whole process of your examination today. We are well aware of our niece’s capabilities. Therefore… who are you?”

The moment he said that, Dou Zerui and Dou Xiangling looked at him in shock.

All three elders of the Dou Family had serious expressions on their faces. The sharpness contained in their gazes were as if they could see through Zi Yi’s inner thoughts.

Zi Yi chuckled in response and calmly answered, “If you don’t think that I’m Zi Yi, then who am I?”

“I heard that Zi Xu had invested all his liquid funds and now those funds are tied up in unfruitful projects. If I were to find out that Zi Xu arranged for you to approach and obtain something from us, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“What can I obtain from you?”

Zi Yi cocked her head to the side while her smile deepened. “Your reputation? So in order to make use of your reputation, I went to M.Uni and took the examination for eight different degrees? Since I am capable of such a feat, would I still need your reputation?”

Speaking of this, Zi Yi revealed traces of indifference. “Since you’ve already done your investigation, you should know that I was chased out by Zi Xu. As for the reason behind it, I’m sure you are also well aware. Despite all that, I did not approach the Dou family. What do you think you possess that I would want to make use of?”

After she said that, she directly stood up.

“Thanks for the dinner. Goodbye.”

“Stop right there!”

Dou Jingning did not expect Zi Yi to have such a temper. He furrowed his brows and looked at her. “Sit down.”

Zi Yi did not heed him. She remained standing and looked at him with her lips pursed.

Dou Jingning felt a sudden headache coming on.

He knew what she said was right. Most importantly, if that brother-in-law of theirs knew of Zi Yi’s capabilities, he would never have chased her out and left her to her own devices.

His earlier question was asked out of instinct. He instinctively felt that their niece did not have such capabilities.

However, he could be sure right now. Zi Yi’s stubborn character was exactly the same as before.

“I apologize for what I said earlier.”

Zi Yi never expected an apology from Dou Jingning and all of a sudden, her anger dissipated.

And so, she sat down. Then it was Dou Xiaoyong and Dou Zhiyuan’s turn to ask questions.

Dou Xiaoyong asked, “You never liked studying before. How did you suddenly get such good grades?”

Zi Yi’s fingers tapped on the table and she answered in an unserious manner, “Disliking studying doesn’t mean I’m not good at studying. In any case, I have the Dou family’s scholarly genes and as long as I wish to learn something, I will easily acquire proficiency.”

Dou Xiaoyong unexpectedly liked that answer of hers.

However, Dou Zerui who was sitting at the side while keeping quiet, had nearly spat out his tea.

Whereas Dou Xiangling did not know whether to laugh or cry.

They felt that their cousin was talking nonsense in a serious manner.

Dou Zhiyuan asked, “Then why are you suddenly interested in studying? Moreover, you wish to take on so many different subjects.”

Zi Yi looked at the three of them and answered seriously, “I like it.”

Zi Yi’s three Uncles: “…”

Just then, Zi Yi’s phone suddenly received a notification. Taking a glance at it, it was unexpectedly from Lu Jingye.

Lu Jingye: [It’s going to rain tonight. Don’t stay out too long.]

Zi Yi smiled. She felt warm deep down inside.

Even when he was swamped with work, he would still send a message to remind her. Should she try to act cute with him?

Thinking of this, Zi Yi quickly typed a response: [I was captured by my big devilish Uncles. They are thinking of eating me.]

Lu Jingye: [Where are you?]

Zi Yi: [Are you coming to save me?]

Lu Jingye: [Yes. Even if they are your Uncles, they cannot bully you.]

The smile on Zi Yi’s lips deepened and she gave him her current location.

Immediately after, she looked up while putting her phone down. Upon seeing five pairs of gazes locked onto her, she restrained her smile and looked back with a taut expression.

The Dou family members: “…”

Why did they have a feeling that they were bad people?

Zi Yi said to her three Uncles, “If you dislike me, you can just pretend that I don’t exist.”

Zi Yi’s three Uncles: “…”

“I won’t appear in front of grandfather and anger him, nor will I ruin your reputation. What I did in the past was truly too much and I won’t ask for your forgiveness. If it were me, I wouldn’t forgive myself too… If you are still angry, you can just treat it as if I don’t exist.”

She did not have feelings for the Dou family and it was better to draw the line.

Her three Uncles turned pensive at her words.

They never expected that the niece who used to be so ignorant would suddenly become so… alienated from them.

Whatever she had done during this period of time had indeed never involved the Dou family.

And so, the three of them began to re-examine this niece of theirs.

In the end, everyone remained silent.

Zi Yi was not fond of such an atmosphere and so she said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back first.”

Having said that, she left the room.

Her three Uncles did not stop her.

Just as she walked out of the room, Dou Xiangling chased after her. “Yiyi, are you angry? I…”

Zi Yi stopped and looked at her as she said, “I’m not angry. They are considered strangers to me and I don’t really care about strangers’ attitudes towards me.”

All of a sudden, Dou Xiangling had no idea what to say.

Zi Yi waved at her and said, “I’ll be leaving first.”

After which, she left. When she walked out of the restaurant, she discovered it really was raining.

She recalled Lu Jingye mentioning he was coming and took out her phone, with the intention to send him a message. However, a car had coincidentally stopped in front of her.

The windows rolled down and revealed Lu Jingye’s handsome face.

Unexpectedly, he was in the driver’s seat.

“Yiyi, get in.”

Zi Yi kept her phone, walked over to the passenger’s side, and got in. She looked at him in surprise. “How did you get here so quickly?”

“I just happened to have an appointment nearby.”

Zi Yi smiled. She pointed at her racing car and said, “My car’s still here.”

“Open the automatic lock. I’ll get the bodyguard to drive it back for you.”

Zi Yi nodded and unlocked the car. Lu Jingye contacted his bodyguards through a communicator and drove away.

“Where are we going?”

“Where would you like to go?”

Zi Yi looked at the weather and said, “Why don’t we go home? I previously arranged for the robots to deliver some alcohol back home. It’s suitable to drink some alcohol during such weather.”

Lu Jingye suddenly turned to glance at her but said nothing. He turned the steering wheel and drove in the direction of home.

Very soon, they arrived at Zi Yi’s villa. When the housekeeper heard the sounds of their arrival, he came out to welcome them with umbrellas.

“Second Young Master, Miss Zi. You’re back.”

The housekeeper passed one umbrella to Lu Jingye.

He took it and held it above Zi Yi.

Zi Yi glanced at the umbrella and simply held his arm and they both headed towards the backyard together.

Looking at their backs, the housekeeper smiled knowingly and did not follow behind them.

Upon arriving at the back yard, and walking into the living room, Zi Yi went to fetch two bottles of alcohol, while Lu Jingye was putting away the umbrella.

When he saw the two bottles in her hands, he walked over and said, “Only one bottle. Put the other one away.”

Zi Yi refused. “There’s two of us. How is one bottle sufficient.”

After that, she smiled and winked at him. “Are you worried that I might do something to you if I get drunk?”

She then placed the bottles to one side, walked closer to him, and held his neck. Immediately after, she planted a kiss on his lips.

“Even without alcohol, I already want to do something to you.”

After which, she planted another kiss.

However, she suddenly smelled the faint scent of blood emanating from him. Her expression stiffened and she hastily asked, “Why do you have the scent of blood on you?”
