Chapter 4: The Wounds Left Behind by Childhood
update icon Updated at 2023/6/20 19:13:16

Wait a minute, something must be wrong here, it shouldn't be like this...

Xi Qiao should be an ugly fat woman, weighing over 500 kg, with a waist thicker than a bucket and legs shorter than radishes. Her thick lips, tainted by consuming sweets for years, emit a foul smell. Her hair is filthy and messy, her eyes are as small as peas, and her body is covered in layers of thick fat!

But who is this person in front of me!? How can she look like she doesn't even weigh 100 kg!

Her waist is so soft and delicate that it makes people want to hold her in their arms, and the sweet little mouth makes people want to kiss every breath and pant she takes.

Her flawless cheeks and expressive eyes are just like those in anime, even the most sophisticated 3D modeling techniques couldn't create such a delicate face.

It's all an illusion...

I didn't turn around because she called my name. In fact, I felt like she was bluffing. Wearing such heavy clothing and a helmet, even my own mother wouldn't recognize me.

“Xiao Tian~”

However, a bizarre scene occurred. Even though I pretended not to know her at all, she still called my name with her hands tied behind her back, as if she was positive that the man wearing the motorcycle helmet in front of her was me. I was terrified and couldn't even turn my head back.

Calm down, maybe she's just playing around. If I turn around now, I might expose myself. I can't fall for it so easily.

But just when I thought she was going to give up, I suddenly felt her tiptoeing behind me, and then I heard her whispering in my ear:

“dar~ ~”

“ling❤️”

Ah——————————!!!

I couldn't resist, turned around, removed my helmet, and met her eyes, my face full of disbelief.

“How did you recognize me!?”

What the hell! It's not just my own mother, but even if my grandparents, parents, and sister were here, they wouldn't recognize me.

But not only did this girl recognize me, she also flirted with me!

Xi Qiao smiled lightly, wearing a casual white short-sleeved shirt, denim shorts, and brown knee-high boots.

This outfit made her look energetic, but most importantly, her enticingly white and shiny long legs were the center of attention, yet not overly exposed. They were absolutely stunning.

“Telepathy~”

Xi Qiao tilted her head, with a smile on her lips, looking as if she was teasing me, but I had to admit that she looked gorgeous like this. It felt like I was playing a dating simulation game, making my heart race.

“Long time no see.”

But my heart racing was entirely due to panic! What kind of plot does this girl have? Why would she put on such a facade? Is it possible that she has already arranged three hundred ax-wielding thugs, just waiting for her to give the signal?

You see, Xi Qiao's smile is absolutely charming, and no one could resist. But I'm completely immune to it, because I've experienced it countless times.

When we were young, this cute and charming smile would cause countless troubles for me to deal with, and I would always end up being the unlucky one.

So, whenever she smiles, my heart would first skip a beat, and then my brain would plunge into rapid calculation, figuring out if there are any traps set around or what to say to avoid danger.

“Yes… Long time no see.”

Xi Qiao watched me brainstorm, then reached out her slender hand to stroke the corner of my mouth, sliding past it.

“I thought… you might have had some surgery or something,” Xi Qiao said with a hint of concern.

I came back to my senses and grabbed her wrist. She wasn't referring to any issues with my appearance, but rather the scar on the side of my face.

On the left side of my face, there's a small scar, about one or two centimeters long, extending from the corner of my mouth. It looks like a crack on a patched-up table.

This was left by an accident when I was young. I didn't care much about it since it's a thing of the past and there's no need to dwell on it.

“I'm a man, why would I need to do that.”

I rolled my eyes. To me, this girl is far more terrifying than those past incidents. What I should be cautious about now is how she plans to mess with me, not reminiscing about the past.

“So is this a proof of love~” Xi Qiao said.

Hey, hey, wait a minute.

What’s going on with you?

Forget the physical tortures; what's with the verbal attack now?For me, this statement by Xi Qiao is simply true and hurtful. The reason I did that kind of thing was not because of her; this wound is just a proof of my manhood, and it has nothing to do with any feelings for Xi Qiao.

"No," I said firmly.

Since it was discovered, there was no way around it.

I simply took off my thick clothes, wrapped the helmet, and started to take Xi Qiao to find a place to eat.

Speaking of taking a girl to eat, it requires careful consideration, right? But my careful consideration might be quite different, focusing on safety issues.

Well... these street food stalls look pretty good, but the kitchen design is too open, and Xi Qiao might go in and pull some tricks.

The restaurant over there seems okay, but the waiters seem to be all men. If Xi Qiao uses her beauty, I might still suffer.

After a thorough consideration, I finally chose a high-end-looking restaurant that seemed very safe inside.

"Hey~ hey, darling, do we look like a couple?"

Before entering, Xi Qiao held my arm and said.

Her soft chest squeezed against my hand, bringing a silky texture. I felt like being electrocuted, and my whole body stiffened.

This guy must have some kind of plot...
