231: No beating is in vain.

Xu Zhiyou covered her mouth: "Time is tight and the task is heavy. Let's talk about business first. After that, we still need to pack our luggage."

"Bang!"

Bae Joo-hyun slapped her hand away: "Don't change the subject. What important business could you possibly have?"

"Not me, it's you." She put the last piece of grilled meat into her mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

Then she continued, "What do you want from me? For the sake of this late-night snack, as long as it's not too much, I'll reluctantly agree."

"I came here to kill you, where would..."

"Irene, you have something to discuss." Son Seung-wan saw her getting carried away and reminded her.

Bae Joo-hyun turned to look at her, asking in confusion, "What is it?"

"Sigh!" Son Seung-wan rubbed her forehead.

Their leader always went crazy whenever she encountered Xu Zhiyou. Helpless, she simply stated, "The matter about introducing Zoe to someone."

"Oh!"

Bae Joo-hyun remembered that there was indeed such a thing.

Xu Zhiyou looked curiously at Son Seung-wan: "Wendy *oni*, who wants to meet me?"

While Xu Zhiyou wasn't paying attention, Bae Joo-hyun kicked her heel, feeling immensely satisfied after the kick.

Xu Zhiyou turned to look at her: "Is your head full of cerebrospinal fluid? Speechless!"

"Aish! Ouch..."

Xu Zhiyou's flicking finger accurately hit her forehead: "Get to the point."

"Yah!"

"If you don't talk, then forget it."

She glanced at Park Chaeyoung, who was sitting there eating melon seeds, and before Chaeyoung could react, she darted in front of her.

"Uh???" Park Chaeyoung's brain froze, maintaining her melon seed-cracking posture.

Xu Zhiyou looked at her surprised little expression and put a melon seed into her mouth: "Eat, why did you stop?"

Park Chaeyoung snapped back, changing her smile: "Hehe! It's going to rain." She got up and rushed towards the room, "I'm going to collect the clothes... Ouch... Ow ow ow..."

Xu Zhiyou grabbed her ponytail: "What, are we living in a thatched hut?! Get back here."

"Be gentle, my hair is falling out."

Xu Zhiyou rubbed it twice, looking at the broken hair in her hand and exclaimed: "Omo, Chaeyoung, look."

She showed it to her: "Your hair is too brittle. If you dye it a few more times, you'll really be bald!"

"Aish!" Park Chaeyoung's face darkened. She turned to look at her, "I'll kill you... Ouch!"

She didn't get to explode, as she received a slap on the back of her head. She puffed out her cheeks and glared resentfully at Xu Zhiyou.

"Tsk!" Xu Zhiyou flicked her forehead again, "What are you going to do, kill me?!"

"Humph~"

She tilted her head to the side, pouting angrily, sulking to herself. To actually call her bald was too much.

"Aigoo!" Xu Zhiyou was charmed by her cute little appearance.

She pinched her cheeks and rubbed them hard: "Chaeyoung! I didn't realize you were so cute."

"Mmm mmm..."

Park Chaeyoung's eyes were practically rolling to the heavens. She had never seen such a thick-skinned person; it was simply shameless.

"Huh! The face-pinching fiend."

Kim Jennie saw this situation, and bad memories flooded her mind. She covered her face and hid behind Kim Ji-soo.

Kim Ji-soo grabbed her face with her backhand: "Jennie, come, let me also reminisce."

"I refuse... Mmm mmm... Let go of me..." Kim Jennie was filled with regret.

She forgot that her own older sister also liked to pinch her face. If she had known, she would have run to Lisa's side. Her heart ached.

"Huh!"

Kang Seul-gi looked at Kim Ji-soo with disdain: "What a strange habit! To actually like pinching people's faces, you two definitely have some issues."

"Mm-hmm!"

Kim Jennie and Park Chaeyoung nodded vigorously. They were practically soulmates, speaking both their innermost thoughts.

Bae Joo-hyun saw Xu Zhiyou ignoring her like this, so she walked up and grabbed her hair: "What's the meaning of this, not even showing guests respect!"

Xu Zhiyou let go of Park Chaeyoung, turned around, and looked at her disdainfully: "You're the one who didn't speak up, is it my fault?"

Park Chaeyoung took the opportunity to hide behind Lisa: "Stop her, that shameless scoundrel is not even human."

Lisa glanced at her: "Who told you to provoke her? Whose fault is that!" She turned and saw Chaeyoung's flushed cheeks, and couldn't resist reaching out to pinch them.

Park Chaeyoung's eyes widened. She looked at Lisa in disbelief: "What are you doing?"

"Uh???"

Lisa quickly pulled her hand back, laughing heartily: "I couldn't resist, haha!"

Anyone could bully her. Park Chaeyoung's small universe instantly erupted. She grabbed Lisa's neck: "Even you dare to bully me..."

Lisa now deeply regretted why her hands were so restless: "Mianhae, I didn't do it on purpose, I really couldn't resist..."

"I'll show you 'couldn't resist'." She mimicked Xu Zhiyou's actions.

She grabbed Lisa's cheeks and rubbed them vigorously. She had to admit, they felt really good. No wonder Zoe liked pinching faces so much.

"Huh!" Xu Zhiyou couldn't stand it anymore.

"Chaeyoung, fortunately, Lisa hasn't had plastic surgery. Otherwise, with those few pinches of yours, it would definitely cost a hundred or two hundred million to fix."

Bae Joo-hyun was speechless. She poked her forehead: "All you talk about is money. Were you poor to death in your last life?"

"Aigoo! Big head..."

"Aish!" Bae Joo-hyun's face darkened, "I think you really want to die..."

"Don't get angry." Xu Zhiyou quickly corrected herself, "Uh, Irene, how did you know I was poor to death in my last life?"

"Yah!" Bae Joo-hyun rolled her eyes at her, "You're getting excited, aren't you!"

"It's true..."

"Sigh!" Bae Joo-hyun rubbed her forehead.

She sighed: "I must be sick too, getting angry with someone as abnormal as you. It's exhausting!"

"That's too much, you're the one who's abnormal... Mmm mmm"

"Shut up!" Bae Joo-hyun covered her mouth, "A few senior senior asked me to arrange a dinner party. They want to meet you. What are your thoughts?"

Upon hearing this, Park Chaeyoung let go of Lisa and looked at Bae Joo-hyun: "Irene, who all will be there?"

Kim Ji-soo also pricked up her ears. Although she often said Xu Zhiyou was aloof, that was just talk.

She was aware of Xu Zhiyou's charm; sometimes even she got confused when she saw it. If Xu Zhiyou brought a boyfriend home, she would be miserable, so she had to keep a close eye on her.

Kim Jennie also stared intently at Bae Joo-hyun. Her thoughts were not much different from Kim Ji-soo's.

Kim Yerim looked at their reactions and inwardly exclaimed that it was like their own prize cabbage being rooted by pigs.

She couldn't help but tease: "Tsk tsk! Irene, you're being treated like a pimp!"

"Yeri!" Bae Joo-hyun turned and glared at her, "I haven't vented my anger yet, don't force me to hit you."

"Mianhae!" Kim Yerim made a zipping motion across her lips, indicating she had shut up.

"Pfft ha ha ha~"

Kang Seul-gi couldn't hold back her laughter. She scanned the room and laughed heartily: "It really does look like that, doesn't it?"

Bae Joo-hyun backhanded her with a big slap, and Kang Seul-gi was instantly stunned.

Son Seung-wan rubbed her forehead and pulled her aside: "Silly Bear! Tell me, why are you so lacking in discernment? You never get a slap for nothing."

"I..."

Kang Seul-gi rubbed the back of her head, ready to argue a bit, but Son Seung-wan interrupted her: "Just shut up! If you say anything more, you'll get another one."

"Sigh!" Kang Seul-gi could only sigh helplessly.

Bae Joo-hyun saw her quiet down and, without answering Park Chaeyoung, looked at Xu Zhiyou: "So, what do you think?"
