“Hey, hey, hey, who are you calling my wife! Xing Xing, don’t spout nonsense!”
I couldn’t help but get angry as I held the phone.
Xing Xing said awkwardly:
“Big Brother Ye, don’t deny it. Also, you and your wife forgot to take your bags. Fortunately, my cousin’s eyes were pretty sharp, otherwise it would have been left behind on the construction site.”
I only just realized that my bag was gone. No wonder when I came home today, I felt something was missing.
“You did a good job. Next time I’m chopping people, I’ll bring you with me, but about the wife...”
“Big Brother Ye, I found that in addition to your bags, there was a new shopping bag with underwear inside! So you were buying underwear with Ren XiaoQin! Can you honestly say you’re just ordinary classmates after you’ve already progressed to this stage?”
“That......”
It was a fact, I couldn’t think of how to refute at this moment.
“I was lying here bored, so I made a few phone calls, asked some students from 28th Middle and they said: Ren Xiaoqin was your childhood friend!”
Xing Xing’s aunt was the headteacher of 28th Middle. It was not particularly strange that he had several student’s phone numbers.
“Someone told me that you guys promised to get married when you were kids! She transferred schools to look for you!”
Isn’t this the earliest version of the rumors about me and Xiao Qin? Your intelligence is a bit outdated! With such outdated intelligence, you would be strongly condemned if you accidentally bombed a certain country’s embassy!
“Big Brother Ye, although we are part of the triads, we still have to have a conscience!”
Who’s a part of the triads! You’ve watched too many gangster films! Also, how do I not have a conscience!
“Big Brother Ye, since you have already made a promise, why are you not owning up to it! In fact, I envy the innocent relationship between you two, you two might as well get together! Let the brothers be happy too...”
If you are envious, I can take a time machine to switch places with you! With your tiny physique, you would have been beat to death by Xiao Qin within three days! Also, weren’t you a part of the triads? When did you switch jobs to a matchmaker!
“For those of us in the underworld, we must have a powerful elder sister! Although this time we were beat by the female boss, we’re not angry, we were guilty, it was a good lesson! I was thinking, if you two got together, who would dare bother us anymore?”
Keep dreaming, there’s no way I will form a yin yang demon team with Xiao Qin that will harm others.
“Compared to Miss Ai Mi, elder sister is a bit inferior in terms of appearance, but nowadays long distance relationships are not reliable. Big Brother Ye, do you really believe in long distance relationships?”
“Shut up! Who likes Ai Mi, that blonde little girl! Is that what you meant when you said I was having an affair?”
“Big Brother Ye, we are all brothers, there’s no need to hide it. Let’s not talk about Miss Ai Mi for now, last time in the cafe, that girl wasn’t elder sister, right? Although I only saw her back, but her hair was really long...” (TN: In raws, he actually refers to Xiao Qin as sister-in-law, but I’m going to use elder sister)
He was talking about the class leader, Shu Sha. Why can’t I get some good luck, how come everything I’ve done was seen by Xing Xing?
“In short, Big Brother Ye, I will tell Uncle Zhang to deliver your bags. You guys still have homework to do, right? Once you meet elder sister tomorrow, tell her something good about us, don’t let her be angry at us, okay?”
Xiao Qin won’t hold a grudge against you guys. If she heard that you actually support her as my girlfriend, even if she can’t get too close to you because of her androphobia, she would definitely protect you guys.
Later, Uncle Zhang came by to deliver my bag.
I told Uncle Zhang to stay for a cup of tea and then leave, he smiled and said that there was still Miss Xiao Qin’s bags and he shouldn’t keep her waiting, then he ran out again without stopping.
I hope that when Xiao Qin gets back the bag from Uncle Zhang, she won’t get dejected again.
By the way, it wasn’t just me who was injured! Xiao Qin’s shoulder also took a heavy hit, at least it would bruise?
When she was at the hospital, why didn’t she let the nurse take care of it? It would have been good to at least wipe it with povidone-iodine!
If Auntie Ren found out that her baby girl was beaten, she might be furious. Maybe she might come over with 18 different weapons, and as the person who bullied her daughter, I would get punishment straight to my head. Then, she would take care of my father who lacks discipline, and send both of us to the other world.
However, looking at the situation, Xiao Qin was quite regretful about hurting my arm. She probably would conceal it and not let Auntie discover it.
After being treated by Dr. Zhao, the pain in my left arm significantly lessened, but it wasn’t easy to fall asleep when I laid in bed at night.
Will Xiao Qin also lose sleep? I could almost imagine her tossing and turning in bed with a dejected face with an injured shoulder.
How senseless, why did we both have to injure each other and make one another experience pain, and cause tonight’s sleeplessness?
Fortunately, my healing ability was already equivalent to the power of 5 people. It should only take around two weeks to recover.
Sure enough, the pain of ** is nothing, it’s much better than mental pain!
What exactly is mental pain? There’s a perfect example right beside me.
Dad came home drunk at 11 o’clock in the evening, he hugged the toilet while vomiting, then he would shout my mother’s name, then he fell asleep.
He didn’t forget to pick up some Yangzhou fried rice from the place where he was drinking, in case I wanted to have a night snack.
It just so happens I only had biscuits for dinner, so I cleaned out the fried rice without holding back.
Since I only had one hand, I couldn’t take my father back to his bed. I had to find a winter coat from the closet and placed it over him.
I hope that when I get up in the middle of the night to use the washroom, my dad could wake up.
On Tuesday morning, after my dad sobered up, he asked me what happened to my arm.
I said that I fell when I was using the horizontal bars, and my father was skeptical.
“Xiao Lin, did you get into a fight again? Don’t always hang out with tough guys! It’s not good for your future if your friend circle is too small! Don’t you have a lot of good female classmates? You should try interacting with them, you might gain a lot of knowledge!”
Thank you, Dad, for your good intentions, but I would have to politely decline. The injuries on my body were caused from interactions with female classmates. If I keep on interacting, I will be killed.
Dad asked me if I could attend school with this injury. If I can’t, he will call the teacher to request leave of absence.
Although I was tempted to skip school, I felt that if I didn’t go to school, there was something I couldn’t get out of my heart. I told my father that it was a minor injury and it wouldn’t affect daily life.
Furthermore, I still have to run around Dongshan Lake.
Although my arm was injured, my legs are fine! How can I become a strong person if I can’t overcome a small obstacle?
Also, after the battle with Xiao Qin, I deeply felt I was lacking in ability.
It seems that I can not enter Berserker mode when I was facing Xiao Qin.
Although if I fought as hard as I could, I might be able to fight on level grounds with Xiao Qin, but that isn’t the outcome I want.
Men are physically stronger than women. It’s not something to be proud of if I used that method to win against the Little Tyrant who was now a girl.
If I only wanted to win, why not pick a fight with Xiao Qin when she has menstrual pains, isn’t that a guaranteed victory?
My new goal was to not rely on Berserker mode, but to minimize the damage, an effortless victory against Xiao Qin.
It sounds a bit like a fantasy, but I believe it’s entirely possible.
I progressed from being beaten by Xiao Qin to her equal, and it took me three years.
Excluding various disadvantageous factors as a woman, she does not exercise at all, and the fact that she’s throwing away her own martial arts skills gave me a boost of confidence.
Three months, three months should be enough time.
When we fight again next time, I will defeat you fair and square!
The only thing to worry about is how to make Xiao Qin turn into Little Tyrant.
As I was thinking of all sorts of deceptive tactics, I saw the kungfu grandpa along the shore of Dongshan Lake.
Still as energetic as ever, his punching technique looked very cool.
When he saw me running closer, he stopped practicing and nodded to me.
As I came a bit closer, the old man probably saw the bandages and my left arm hanging from my neck.
“Hey boy, how did you get injured? You’re still exercising with an injury?”
Unprecedentedly, the old man initiated a conversation with me.
Out of courtesy, I stopped in front of him and replied respectfully:
“It’s nothing, just an injury I got in gym class, this little injury doesn’t affect exercise!”
The old man stroked the long beard on his chin.
“You have injuries on your eyes, lower abdomen, and buttocks. Is your gym class taught by one of the 18 bronzemen from the Shaolin Temple?”
Eh? The old man has great vision! The injury on the corner of the eye was obvious, but purely based on my running posture, he can see that my lower abdomen and buttocks were injured!
I scratched my head with my right hand and chuckled. I confessed that I was beaten in a fight.
The old man’s eyes flashed.
“Who beat you? In the past few years, I have seen you exercise at the lake thousands of times. —— Did they have a lot of people?”
“Haha, gramps, don’t worry about it! That guy is nothing! I’ll work hard for three months, and definitely win!”
Listening to my vow, the old man’s face sank.
“So that means, the other side only had one person? Was he older than you, was he taller than you?”
“No... the same age as me, much smaller and skinnier than me...”
I admitted in embarrassment.
The old man’s eyebrows perked up. “Then he must be a skilled person! You can train your muscles every day, but you won’t beat him in the end!”
Was it that bad? I don’t think there was such a big gap between me and Xiao Qin? But in front of the old man, I couldn’t say that the person was actually a girl who was getting weaker day by day because she doesn’t train, soon she would be overtaken by me.
The old man twirled his beard and after careful deliberations, said:
“Young man, it’s rare to find a young person with willpower nowadays.... You and I have some fate. When your arm is healed, I will teach you some kungfu!”
