After Becoming A Cannon Fodder, I Just Want To Survive GL

Chapter 3

Upon hearing Ji Yuning's greeting, Fang Bai slightly nodded and said, "Hmm."

This was a normal reaction, but it was strange coming from Fang Bai, as the original owner never showed such a calm demeanor towards Ji Yuning.

Ji Yuning lowered her head as Fang Bai entered, failing to notice Fang Bai's unusual reaction.

In fact, Ji Yuning rarely made eye contact with Fang Bai.

One reason was disgust and hatred, and the other was that every time she looked into the woman's eyes, it triggered the woman, causing her to unleash a barrage of unpleasant words, followed by inevitable beatings.

Her injuries were still painful, and if she was beaten again, she might not be able to go to school tomorrow.

This was something Ji Yuning did not want to happen.

Only by going to school, could she avoid seeing this woman.

Ji Yuning lived in the school dormitory and had five days of life where she felt somewhat alive each week, but the injuries she sustained during these five days would worsen during the weekends, making her feel like a walking dead person.

Ji Yuning pretended to be weak and afraid, with her head lowered, but Fang Bai just looked at her hair and inwardly sighed.

"Despite her meek appearance, Ji Yuning stood straight and had a demeanor that was anything but meek, resembling a hungry wolf waiting to pounce from the darkness."

"But right now, she was just a young wolf cub who hadn't fully grown up yet."

With her head hanging down, Ji Yuning saw what was in the woman's hand -- a white plastic cylinder.

She thought to herself, "Is this a new weapon? A rolling pin isn't enough, now she's switched to this? Is she going to hit me with this?"

Ji Yuning looked again and realized that the white cylinder was actually a medicinal bottle.

Fang Bai gazed at Ji Yuning's hair for a couple of seconds before holding out the medicine in front of Ji Yuning. "Sister Wu had to go out, so I came to deliver this medicine for you," she said.

The item was revealed as Fang Bai's hand opened up.

It was a spray bottle, for treating bruises.

Ji Yuning's thick eyelashes fluttered as she raised her head and her heart confirmed that the woman was playing a new game.

She thought, "Beat someone and then send medicine? That's like giving them a candy after slapping them in the face."

"I really wonder what game this woman wanted to play."

"But since she wanted to play, I had no choice but to go along with it as a way of repaying the gift for being taken care of."

Ji Yuning took the spray bottle from Fang Bai's hand, pursed her lips, and whispered a low, "Thank you, Miss Fang."

This whisper of gratitude seemed like a surrender to an enemy or like a willing acceptance of becoming a slave after defeat.

But Fang Bai knew, all of it was just an illusion.

Fang Bai remembered a description from the novel:

---- After repeated experiences of Fang Bai's abuse, Ji Yuning's attitude underwent a 180-degree change. She no longer fought with Fang Bai, never retorted, and remained silent even when she was beaten. She never resisted.

---- Fang Bai believed that she had finally crushed Ji Yuning's self-esteem and made her a suitable outlet for her anger. But Fang Bai did not know that with each instance of abuse, Ji Yuning's spirit was dying. Ji Yuning was playing a life-or-death game with Fang Bai, and if she was not killed by Fang Bai, the outcome would be against her..
