Death Tide: Bro, you're too strong! Now all of us in the Unorthodox Guild seem so much more high-profile when we go out.
Of course.
As the Vice President of the Unorthodox Guild, he enjoyed more privileges.
Sky Not Yet Bright: I'll go back and sleep for a while, I'll come back later.
Death Tide: Okay.
Time flew by...
It was Saturday afternoon.
Deng Xiao Qi followed Lin Miao Miao into her room.
“I admire you, your mom still doesn't know you go online every night at midnight.”
“Hehe.” Lin Miao Miao grinned, “Impressive, right?”
“Your mom's not home?”
“Yeah, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to come over.”
Deng Xiao Qi looked around Lin Miao Miao’s room.
One wall was covered with sketches.
“Did you draw all of these?”
“Yeah.”
“You draw so well. I thought you only drew comics.”
“I'm a jack of all trades, okay.”
Deng Xiao Qi surveyed the room's furnishings and her gaze landed on a meter-long teddy bear lying by the window.
“Wow! This is so cute.”
She reached out and stroked it.
“Hehe, hello Xiao Qi, my name is Guan Da Xiong.” Lin Miao Miao pretended to be the bear.
“Ah?” Deng Xiao Qi was taken aback, “Why is it called Guan Da Xiong?”
“Because Guan Shan Yue gave it to me for my birthday last year.” Lin Miao Miao said.
“You guys are such good friends.”
After a moment.
“By the way, are you a virgin?” Deng Xiao Qi asked.
...
...
Meanwhile.
Wang Sheng Nan had already appeared at the doorway of Lin Miao Miao’s room after returning home.
“No.” Lin Miao Miao replied.
“I don't think you're a virgin either.”
“Hehe.”
Hearing this conversation.
Wang Sheng Nan felt like a bolt from the blue had struck her.
She sat alone on the couch...
After a long time.
Deng Xiao Qi and Lin Miao Miao came out of the room.
“Hey? Mom, when did you come back?”
Wang Sheng Nan looked indifferent.
Deng Xiao Qi was also a little uneasy.
“Then Aunt, I'm going back.”
Wang Sheng Nan nodded woodenly.
...
...
Lin Miao Miao also saw Deng Xiao Qi out.
Turning around, she shouted to Wang Sheng Nan.
“Every time I bring a classmate home to play, you always give me the cold shoulder, which makes me unable to make friends.”
Wang Sheng Nan's expression was wooden.
“You can't make friends, but you made a boyfriend.”
Lin Miao Miao frowned.
“What are you talking about? When did I have a boyfriend?”
Wang Sheng Nan took a deep breath.
She didn’t mean to expose her.
“You are eighteen, not too old, not too young, some things, Mom should tell you, it's not good of me not to tell you, you are a girl, you have to know how to protect yourself, girls should be dignified.”
Lin Miao Miao’s brow furrowed even deeper at her words.
“I don't understand what you're talking about, I really can't stand it......”
Then.
She turned around abruptly and slammed the door shut as she went back to her room.
...
...
Wang Sheng Nan wiped away a tear with a sad face.
Twenty minutes later......
The door creaked open.
Lin Da Wei walked in.
“Finally home, I'm starving.”
After putting down his bag.
He saw Wang Sheng Nan sitting motionless on the couch.
“What's going on? You didn't even cook?”
Wang Sheng Nan looked at him slowly.
“Your daughter is no longer a virgin.”
Buzz......
Lin Da Wei only felt his brain buzzing suddenly and he sat stiffly on the opposite couch.
Silence!
Distressed.
Seeing him indifferent.
“Your daughter was seduced by a wild boar, or was it seduced by a bottom-of-the-class student like Guan Shan Yue.” Wang Sheng Nan emphasized again.
“Oh...... how do you know?”
...
...
Wang Sheng Nan told him what happened.
“...”
Lin Da Wei also walked towards Lin Miao Miao’s room.
“Miao Miao, come on, let's take you to eat barbecue.”
“Now?” Lin Miao Miao was incredulous.
“Yeah, your mom didn't cook dinner, let's go.” Lin Da Wei said.
Lin Miao Miao immediately became happy like a little white rabbit.
She was skipping and jumping, extremely joyful.
Passing by the living room, she exchanged glances with Wang Sheng Nan, who had a sullen face, and didn't even say hello.
They arrived at an outdoor barbecue stall.
After ordering their food and exchanging a few words.
Lin Da Wei started to ask tentatively.
“Miao Miao, are there any people in your school who are dating?”
“There are, but they're all sneaking around.” Lin Miao Miao said.
“Is anyone chasing you?” Lin Da Wei asked.
Lin Miao Miao smiled smugly but shook her head.
“No.”
“...”
Lin Da Wei was quite startled by that smile just now.
But, the next second he was not calm again.
No one is chasing her, and she’s already not a virgin, does that mean it was given away for nothing?
“So, I'll ask you something, tell Dad the truth.”
“Yeah.”
“You.” Lin Da Wei paused, “Are you a virgin?”
Lin Miao Miao shook her head repeatedly while eating her meat skewer.
Lin Da Wei’s expression froze.
His heart skipped a beat, it was so painful!
He stared blankly at his daughter.
When their eyes met.
Lin Miao Miao finally swallowed the meat skewer.
“I'm an Archer, we’re both Archers, don't you remember? Are you my real dad? You even forget my birthday.”
“Hahaha.”
Lin Da Wei just laughed.
Oh, what a feeling, like breaking through the clouds and seeing the blue sky......
All his depression swept away.
She’s not dating and says she’s not a virgin, but it’s just about zodiac signs, a complete non-issue.
In the end.
Lin Miao Miao ordered another ten meat skewers and two big kidneys.
She could eat.
...
...
Back home.
“I told you you were overthinking it, our child is very innocent, she doesn't even think crookedly.” Lin Da Wei said.
Wang Sheng Nan also breathed a sigh of relief.
“My goodness! It turned out to be about zodiac signs, now I can finally sleep soundly, my heart was about to burst with anxiety.”
“You should learn from me, don't always be so serious.”
“If I’m as carefree as you, how would it work?” Wang Sheng Nan looked at him, “What if Guan Shan Yue really took her virginity?”
“Then what can you do? Even if you stopped Guan Shan Yue, there will be other Guan Shan Yue’s approaching our daughter, why are you so anxious all the time?”
“...”
...
...
Late at night.
The night enveloped the earth.
The Huangpu River.
Even though it was Shanghai, in this cold winter, coupled with one in the morning, there weren’t many people walking around.
It could even be said that there were only Guan Shan Yue and Lin Miao Miao.
Strolling under the dim lights.
“Only idiots like us would be out walking at this late hour, right?” Lin Miao Miao laughed.
“It’s not your fault, just a can of beer, and you want to blow some cool air.” Guan Shan Yue said.
“Cut it out, you're not much better, okay? Look, your face is red.”
“...”
Guan Shan Yue didn’t know what was wrong with him.
His face was red from drinking......
If they really had to drink, he probably couldn’t beat Lin Miao Miao.
“It seems like we’re not the only ones out walking.”
“Huh?”
Lin Miao Miao also looked over.
After a few seconds, they got closer.
It was a girl in a denim jacket, her black hair was blowing in the wind, looking a little messy and elegant, she was standing on the railing by the river, facing the water......
Her brows were furrowed, her eyes were red, looking extremely sad and burdened with worries.
She was holding a phone, pressing the recording button.
“March 15th, Saturday, early morning, today is the first day of Nanda’s winter camp, and it’s also my thirty-fourth sleepless night. I've come to Shanghai, I’ve seen the stars and the big river, but I’m still not happy......”
She spoke with great sadness, a tear rolled down her cheek.
“Maybe...... I don’t belong in this world.”
Beep.
The recording ended.
Her heart was like ashes, she was completely disheartened, ready to commit suicide by jumping into the river.
...
...
“What is she doing? Is she going to jump in the river?”
“Probably.” Guan Shan Yue said.
“Ah!”
Lin Miao Miao immediately became nervous and ran forward.
“That classmate......!!”
But the girl in front of her got off the railing again.
“...”
“...”
They looked at each other, from a distance of about eight meters, Guan Shan Yue saw the girl’s face......
Qiao Ying Zi.
