"We will cut off all this hair, let's see how charming you will look then and try seducing my daughter's fiance. Just give you a little opportunity and then you take advantage of it. See?. You ungrateful little thing. I let you grow your hair and now you try using it to seduce the young master. How dare you?." An angry voice said.
"Mum, there is no need for all that. We just need to dye it an ugly shade of splat yellow". Another voice said giggling in an annoying way.
"Xingyi." Another voice scolded calmly.
Yang Yang frowned, her eyes closed. Why was she hearing all this voices in her head?. Was this just a normal process that one passed through after death?. Or did the impact of her stab not kill her?. No she was sure she had been precised enough in stabbing her heart directly.
But wait. Why did these voices sound like those of her aunt and cousins, and why did this day seem familiar?. Well maybe she was at heaven or wherever people went when they died. But she had to know.
With that thought in mind she opened one if her eyes and peeked. After taking in her environment, she gasped, peeling her other eye open hastily. She was dead, so why then was she in her aunt's house with her aunt and cousins?. Just then Xingyi Lin spoke.
"What were you peeking at for?. Did you make another wish it was all a dream?" She asked a smirk evident not only on her face but even in her voice.
"Xingyi, what are you still standing here for?. Go get me my scissors now. We are shaving off every hair on her head." Her mother, Shujia Lin said sternly.
"Yes mother." She replied meekly, trying hard to hide her smirk, before walking away.
Yang Yang eyes widened in realisation. She had been reborn. That was the only explanation that suited the situation. The almighty and the bodies of angels up above the clouds had heard her last prayer and given her a second chance. A chance for retribution.
Now, she had been reborn to the day that her aunt cut her hair. In her past life she had sat calmly, not daring to even sob at that moment, while her long beautiful hair was chopped off. But that was her past life. Now she would not just sit still and watch without fighting back.
Xingyi bounced back into the room, sporting a pair of glinting sharp scissors in her hand.
"Mum." She called walking over to her. "Here is our instrument to cut off the rebellious birds wing."
Yang Yang looked away from Xingyi's face and directed her gaze to Biyu Lin who had been quiet since. She frowned, it was odd. Really odd. Usually she would be the one encouraging and running evil errands for her mother, now why did it seem as though she had now passed that duty to Xingyi?.
"You ungrateful little thing, come over here now and squat on the floor in front of me." Shujia commanded imposingly.
"Mum I think it would be better if she knelt." Xingyi chirped.
Kneel?. Yang Yang scoffed silently. She would be doomed if she even walked over to stand or even squat in front of her.
"What are you standing there like a log of wood?. Come over here and kneel Now." She commanded again, looking even more imposing as Yang Yang ignored her.
Yang Yang sighed tiredly. She had to get rid of them quickly, she could feel a headache coming on. As Xingyi made to grab her, she spoke.
'And what made you think I would sit to let you cut off all my hair?. You think I'm scared?" Yang Yang said dryly.
Shujia gulped. Yang Yang sounded so scary. And her eyes. God those eyes that were staring at her, they felt like there were not just looking at her but also piercing her soul. And her aura. It was so suffocating it felt like Yang Yang had plans of killing every person in the room.
"I used to be timid on the basis that i wanted to respect you all. But then how did you treat me?. Well then, I think being rebellious is the way out now, so why dont I give it a try?."
Shujia's eyes bulged in a combination of anger and shock. When had this girl become so frightening?. Right under her watch?.
"So what are you trying to say?. What are you implying?" She managed to swallow her anger and shock and spoke.
"Its simple. Very simple. But I don't mind explaining. What I mean is I am not letting cut my hair or even letting you get anywhere near it."
Yang Yang glanced around taking in all of their expressions. Xingyi's mouth hung open in a shock she had not recovered from and did not seem like recovering from anytime soon.
Shujia looked very overwhelmed. Her face was a messy mixture of different emotions ranging from shock, to anger, to confusion and then to realisation. She seemed to go round and round that circle very few seconds. Well Yang Yang could not blame, she herself felt a bit overwhelmed too. In her past life she had been extremely timid and had never spoken up for herself.
Biyu Lin just stood, a small knowing little smirk on her face. She looked rather smug like she knew this was going to happen. Yang Yang frowned again. She could not remember Biyu Lin having that smug look at this time in her past life. In fact at that moment, she was assisting in shaving off her hair. She decided to ignore it for now
Exploiting the others shocked state, Yang Yang spoke. "Well, it seems you don't have any objections to it. If so, then I'll take my leave. I feel very sleepy." She turned around, striding out of the room. Behind her, Biyu Lin's smirk grew even wider.
