The Vicious Female Character at the End of Days: C11.2

Hey, first of all, thanks for reading my lousy Machine Translation. To be honest, I’d really like it if you guys corrected the mistakes I made. But please speak nicely and politely. My heart is not strong enough to read your too-harsh comments. Have a nice day. 🙂

Chapter 11. (2/2)

The old man had clearly been waiting for these words.

The plump old woman looked at Bai Qing Qing and said, “There’s an unwritten rule in our village that unmarried men and women can’t meet.”

Before she could finish, Bai Qing Qing immediately looked at Fu Chen dependently, grabbed his arm, and asked anxiously, “Then can’t I see my brother?”

In the original book, Bai Tian Tian was separated for this reason, which is why the Thunder Squad couldn’t find her whereabouts.

The old woman’s face darkened at being interrupted. “Men and women are different,” she said. “You’re so old and still clinging to your brother, what kind of behavior is that!”

She emphasized, “Little sister, don’t worry, I’ll definitely find you a good husband.”

Bai Qing Qing seemed very frightened, her hand trembling slightly as she gripped Fu Chen’s, and she leaned her head against him.

Fu Chen squeezed her hand and said, “Auntie, my sister is timid, can she stay with me?”

“No!” Several voices rang out simultaneously, chattering amongst themselves.

“The village rules can’t be broken. Men and women are separate; they can’t meet before marriage, not even siblings.”

“A girl should marry at eighteen. What kind of behavior is this, clinging to her brother!”

Bai Qing Qing didn’t know whether to call the villagers old-fashioned or ignorant; they’d say anything to achieve their goals.

When Bai Tian Tian was forced to separate from them, it was also said that unmarried men and women were not allowed to meet in private. She was taken away and disappeared without a trace. She never expected that even siblings weren’t allowed to meet.

​

Liang Zhiyu narrowed his fox-like eyes and said, “Clan Chief, our team leader and his sister have never been separated. Could you make an exception and allow them to meet once every two weeks?”

A chorus of opposition still echoed in the ancestral hall. The men carrying weapons looked menacing, as if they would be immediately suppressed if anyone resisted.

Fu Chen glanced at Bai Qing Qing and said, “Auntie, please take good care of my sister for me.”

“Don’t worry,” the old woman laughed heartily, “I certainly won’t mistreat your sister.”

Cheng Rui’s clenched fist tightened slightly. Xiao Yang also looked worried. Only Shen Mingxuan smiled, watching the scene with a cold, indifferent expression.

Bai Qing Qing’s face showed panic, but she remained calm inside, wanting to see what the people of Zhou Village were up to.

The male and female leads definitely wouldn’t be finished. In their previous life, the Thunder Squad managed to escape from Zhou Village; they certainly could do so this time, too.

Awang’s current whereabouts are a mystery. Perhaps she was forcibly taken away, allowing her to see her mission target, Amei. After all, village rules state that unmarried men and women cannot meet, and Awang and Amei probably couldn’t be together for this reason.

After the ancestral hall meeting, the group parted ways.

Bai Qing Qing followed the old woman back to the south side. As they walked, the old woman said, “Since you plan to stay in the village, you’ll move in with me tonight.”

“Okay, thank you, Auntie,” Bai Qing Qing said with a smile.

The old woman’s expression turned serious. “Our village has many rules,” she said. “If you want to stay, you must abide by them. Small mistakes will be punished according to clan law, and big mistakes will get you kicked out of the village.”

“Kicked out of the village?” Bai Qing Qing covered her mouth with both hands.

Seeing her frightened, the old woman continued to assert her authority: “If you don’t want to be kicked out of the village, you’ll come with me tomorrow to learn the rules.”

“Understood,” Bai Qing Qing quickly agreed.

The old woman led her to a building, pushed open the door, and went inside. She discovered that the living quarters were a shared dormitory; one set of supplies could accommodate at least five or six people.

The woman on the old woman’s bed immediately climbed out of bed and respectfully called out, “Sister Hong.”

The room contained only a table, two stools, and a large wardrobe—simple and clean, reminiscent of a prison cell. Bai Qing Qing noticed three women who looked familiar; they were the women Zhang Qiang and his group had brought with them at the service area.

“Why are you so wooden?” the old woman nudged Bai Qing Qing. “Come on, say hello to everyone.”

Bai Qing Qing gave a sweet, gentle smile. “Hello everyone, my name is Bai Qing Qing. I’m very happy to join you. Please guide me in the future.”

Seeing that she was getting along with them, the old woman smiled and said, “You’ll sleep here tonight. Get up early tomorrow.”

After Sister Hong left, the women climbed into bed and went to sleep, lying flat on their backs with their hands on their stomachs, their sleeping postures very proper.

The night passed peacefully. The next day, Bai Qing Qing followed the women to a room. The large wooden room was furnished with a table and chairs, and the women sat neatly in rows.

Bai Qing Qing sat in a corner, a strange feeling creeping over her. Was this going to be a lesson?

Just as she expected, Sister Hong led someone in. It was Bai Tian Tian, whom she hadn’t seen for many days. She was dressed in purple exotic clothing and wore a silver-decorated crown. She was beautiful and graceful.
