Xiaobao's reaction was quieter but far more lethal. She crossed her arms, eyes narrowing. Her dislike for Alarna had nothing to do with the usual drama. No, hers was personal. She had discovered, through a bit of clever sleuthing, that Alarna, thinking she was anonymous, had been trash-talking Yu Xi on the school forum. Calling him ugly, manipulative and fake. She complained what sort of esper sticks to another esper all day long and Yu Xi was weird.
Xiaobao had even caught a few stray insults herself. Alarna had called her style "disgusting" and "tragic."
Since then, Xiaobao had made it her mission to quietly ruin Alarna's online presence. She didn't do anything traceable. She just made enough trouble to make her real accounts glitch, her posts disappear, her followers drop mysteriously especially those ones with Jian Ci.
Now, as Alarna approached with that fake-sweet smile, Xiaobao's fingers itched to smack the pretense off her face.
