Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

On the field, Lynette Batton and Leon Batton walked side-by-side, clad in English-style uniforms.

Leon wore a dark blue uniform with a white shirt, a black tie, and black leather shoes. He seemed like a male protagonist from a television drama.

Meanwhile, his sister wore a similar uniform except paired with a dark blue, high-waisted skirt, a pair of black knee-highs, and black English-style leather shoes. His hair was combed neatly and parted in a three-to-seven ratio, while her hair was long, black, and curly.

Although they had similar facial features, they radiated different vibes.

Leon appeared handsome and aloof, while his sister seemed pretty and elegant.

A gentle breeze lifted Lynette's skirt by the hem ever so slightly. She could pass off as a female protagonist from a well-made television drama.

Many people couldn't resist the urge to take their pictures, which all turned out well.

The siblings looked flattering no matter from which angle.

Lynette naturally rested her hands behind her back as she skipped and hopped next to him. "Leon, did you hear the many comments about us becoming idols?"

He nodded indifferently because he wasn't particularly interested in that. "Yeah."

"What do you think about me as an idol in the future?" she added when he didn't engage further.

"I don't like the idea," he said with a deep frown.

"Why not?"

"You know how messy the entertainment industry can be," he replied with concern.

"But I could join Mommy's company

so that she can protect me. Besides, our family is well-connected there. Who wouldd dare to do anything to me?" she asked.

"Even so," he said with a frown. "Your mind could be tainted as a girl in that kind of environment."

Lynette directly frowned in return.

"That won't happen. I can stay pure.

Besides, not everyone is

complicated and bad in the entertainment industry, right?"

"I still won't allow you to join the entertainment industry," Leon insisted.

"Leon, do you realize how unreasonable you are?"

He scowled again and stopped walking as he turned his serious gaze at his sister. "Lynette, I hope you can always stay free and

unaffected. I hope you will only see good things for the rest of your life," he said sincerely.

He was aloof to everyone else, but he was very protective of his little sister.

"Leon treats Lynette differently than the rest of us."

"Exactly. Hasn't everyone said so already? Leon has dedicated all his compassion to Lynette."

"Totally. Leon is only good to Lynette. I'm so envious of her."

"Stop it. Who isn't envious of Lynette? I wish I could swap lives with her."

"I'd like to interview Lynette and ask her how it feels to be looked after and protected by the most handsome guy in school."

The girls standing at a distance were all speaking softly, but their voices carried over to the siblings.

However, Leon and Lynette didn't even bother looking at anyone around them.
