Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

Chapter 248 Too weak?

Another plain-looking woman in the team, Chen Jiaojiao, looked Shen Yunxi up and down with disdain, rolled her eyes, and said sarcastically, "No way? No way? You actually invited such a piece of trash into the team? Are you out of your minds?"

"You're the one who's out of your mind!" An Mu'an retorted without hesitation. No one could bully her newly adopted sister!

"You!!" Chen Jiaojiao's tone was full of disdain and sarcasm: "You guys aren't trying to hold us back, are you? With her small frame, she'll probably be out of breath after just a few steps."

"Your health isn't much better!" An Mu'an looked Chen Jiaojiao up and down: "Hmm, too weak!"

"Who is she to you, that you're helping her like this!" Chen Jiaojiao was so angry that she wanted to rush up and tear the woman's mouth apart. She snorted coldly and continued, "Don't expect us to carry you when the time comes. We don't have time to serve Miss."

Seeing the argument continuing, the easygoing Li Daheng quickly stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "Jiaojiao, don't say that. We're all here to participate in the assessment, so helping each other is only right."

He then added, "Besides, aren't we all having our soul power suppressed right now? We're all just ordinary people, so let's not make fun of each other."

The boy next to Chen Jiaojiao, Huang Liang, was burly and skinny as a bamboo pole. He chimed in, "Li Da, Jiaojiao isn't wrong. Although our soul power is suppressed, our physical fitness is better than hers. If we let her follow us, we'll probably have to carry her after just a few more steps."

He scratched his head, chuckled, and said, "We won't be able to carry her on our backs then."

Shen Tu Zihan frowned at their words. She glanced coldly at Chen Jiaojiao and Huang Liang and said in a tone devoid of warmth, "If you don't want to leave together, you can leave. No one is forcing you to stay."

Shen Tu Zihan was born into the Shen Tu clan. Even though she was from a collateral branch, she was of noble birth, far surpassing the children of small families like theirs.

Having finally had the chance to get along with someone of Shentu Zihan's noble status and use it to climb the social ladder, how could they possibly give it up so easily?

Chen Jiaojiao and Huang Liang secretly plotted that currying favor with Shen Tu Zihan would greatly benefit the future development of their family.

Thinking of this, the two, though resentful, could only suppress their dissatisfaction and reluctantly shut their mouths.

Shen Yunxi frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then made up her mind.

She raised her eyes and said in a calm but firm tone, "Thinking about it carefully, what you said does make some sense. I really shouldn't be a burden to everyone."

“Sister!” An Mu’an stepped forward and grabbed Shen Yunxi’s arm.

Shen Yunxi calmly withdrew her hand: "Since that's the case, then let's part ways here. Everyone, until we meet again."

After speaking, Shen Yunxi immediately turned around and walked in the opposite direction from the others without hesitation, her slender figure quickly disappearing into the thick fog.

She quickened her pace, almost jogging, as the dense branches brushed against her cheeks from time to time, bringing a damp coolness.

As she got further and further away from the team, her tense nerves gradually relaxed.

After confirming that An Mu'an had not caught up, she breathed a sigh of relief, a sense of ease and joy welling up inside her.

Finally, I'm rid of that nagging little girl!

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and the world became peaceful!

But before she could even catch her breath, a familiar voice came from behind her: "Sister! I'll go with you!"

An Mu'an stuck to Shen Yunxi like glue.
