"Ah..."
"Ah..."
Two screams rang out simultaneously.
One was from the proprietress, a beautiful young woman, and the other from Zi Linling, who was watching the play.
Then, the crisp sound of a slap followed, "Slap!"
"Ah!"
Zi Yuling's piteous cry sounded, and her entire body spun like a top, with a difficulty coefficient of 2.0, crashing into a nearby pillar.
The proprietress, with her fair hands, maintained the posture of having just delivered the slap. Her chest, heaving with anger, trembled slightly.
"Bang! Pfft!"
The dull thud of flesh meeting pillar, accompanied by the sound of spitting blood, echoed in the silent Phoenix Pavilion.
Zi Linling's mouth gaped in shock. The words she had intended to use to disgust Zi Yuling were forgotten.
Even Ye Lingyuan, who was usually unflappable, turned his head away, as if to say, "See no evil," and unable to bear looking at Zi Yuling's miserable state.
"Get out! Get out of the Phoenix Pavilion immediately! From today onwards, you are forbidden to set foot in the Phoenix Pavilion!"
The proprietress's eyes blazed with anger, and she issued the eviction order with murderous intent.
Of course, this was a normal reaction for a woman who had been assaulted.
It was also fortunate that Zi Yuling was a woman. Had it been a man, the Phoenix Pavilion might have been stained with blood today.
The collision had broken three of Zi Yuling's ribs. Enduring the intense pain, she struggled to get up from the ground and said, "Proprietress, I really didn't do it on purpose. I..."
"Get out!"
The proprietress coldly interrupted her explanation.
Tears instantly welled up in Zi Yuling's eyes. She walked towards the proprietress, wanting to explain again.
But in the proprietress's eyes, Zi Yuling had already been branded a lecherous woman.
Having been tricked twice, how could the proprietress allow this female pervert to come near her again?
She suppressed her anger and warned, "If you take another step forward, don't blame me for being rude!"
Zi Yuling had no choice but to stop.
From the fire in the proprietress's eyes, she could tell that the proprietress was not bluffing.
But if she didn't explain, she would have to suffer this injustice in silence.
Because her sudden stumble had been caused by something, not because she had lost her balance.
"Proprietress, I was framed just now!"
The proprietress sneered and said, "Framed? Utter nonsense!"
"There are only four of us in this Phoenix Pavilion. They are so far away and haven't moved at all. Who would frame you?"
"Could it be that I framed you, to... to... molest me?"
As the proprietress said this, a hint of shyness flashed across her enraged face. Su Dan Novel Network
"This..."
Zi Yuling was choked half to death, not knowing how to respond.
At this moment, Zi Linling, not forgetting to add fuel to the fire, said, "Yes! Big sister, it's not like the proprietress framed you, right? If you're a lesbian, then be a lesbian, what's there to be ashamed of?"
"Right, I suddenly remembered, big sister, you always bullied me since childhood. Could it be that you... towards me..."
She deliberately left the latter part unspoken, leaving the proprietress to her imagination.
However, the implication was clear enough, instantly confirming Zi Yuling as a female pervert.
Zi Yuling became anxious and quickly retorted, "You damned girl, what nonsense are you talking about? I..."
"Enough!"
The proprietress coldly interrupted Zi Yuling.
"Whether you are a lesbian or not has nothing to do with me. It's the same as I said, from today onwards, you are forbidden to set foot in the Phoenix Pavilion! Please leave!"
Her impression of Zi Yuling was extremely poor. Suppressing her anger, she issued the eviction order again.
Zi Yuling's tears streamed down, and she wanted to continue explaining, "I really didn't..."
"Get out!"
The proprietress's anger was on the verge of exploding, and she roared.
Zi Yuling bit her lip and turned around dejectedly, about to leave in humiliation.
But the moment she turned, she saw Zi Linling's mocking smile.
She rushed to Zi Linling and questioned sternly, "You damned girl, you framed me, you used some trick to make me slip, didn't you?"
Zi Linling's expression turned cold and she said, "Big sister, we must have evidence. Which eye of yours saw me using a trick?"
It wasn't that she wouldn't admit it, but she wasn't the one who had done it. She had no habit of taking the blame for others.
"It must be you! It must be you! Besides me and the proprietress, there's only you and the King of Hell. But the King of Hell's temperament means he wouldn't stoop to such acts, so who else could have framed me if not you?" Zi Yuling said frantically.
It had to be said that even the most foolish person had moments of clarity, and Zi Yuling, who had thrived in the Giant Flame Sect, was not foolish to begin with.
"Clap, clap, clap!"
Zi Linling clapped her hands and said sarcastically, "Big sister, your reasoning ability is so good that even I can't help but applaud you! But as I said, where is the evidence?"
Zi Yuling gritted her teeth and said, "The evidence is that you and I have a feud!"
Zi Linling laughed coldly, "According to you, I can also say that this was a play you staged yourself, with the sole purpose of framing me and making me the culprit who framed you!"
Zi Yuling said hysterically, "You're talking nonsense! How could I put myself in such an embarrassing situation just to frame you?"
Zi Linling said coldly, "How would I know? Who knows if your brain was squeezed by a door or kicked by a donkey?"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Zi Yuling said, and was about to lunge at Zi Linling to tear at her.
But how could Zi Linling let herself be torn at?
Zi Linling shifted her feet and dodged the charging, frenzied Zi Yuling.
And Zi Yuling was in for more trouble!
Behind Zi Linling was a wall with clothes hanging on it, and Zi Yuling, unable to stop herself, crashed directly into the wall.
A large bump immediately formed on her smooth, fair forehead.
"Oh dear! Big sister, can't produce evidence, and now you're using bumping into the wall to frame me?"
Zi Linling tutted, "Unfortunately, everyone can testify that I didn't even touch you. You ran into it yourself!"
"You!"
Zi Yuling was so angry she was about to explode on the spot. She raged, "Zi Linling, I..."
"Enough!"
The proprietress's face had turned from green to black. She looked at Zi Yuling coldly and said, "I'll say it one last time, please leave the Phoenix Pavilion immediately, or I will take action!"
Zi Yuling was going mad at this point.
She no longer pleaded with the proprietress to explain, but pointed at Zi Linling and confronted the proprietress, "I will leave, but before I leave, she must prove that she was not the one who framed me just now!"
