The movie ended quickly.
Su Li held Xia Ke's hand and didn't let go. The two walked out of the cinema hand in hand.
Xia Ke lowered her head and said nothing, while Su Li's heart beat faster and faster the longer they walked.
Su Li knew he had to say or do something at this moment, otherwise, they would continue to be awkward.
"Xia Ke!"
Su Li suddenly stopped and turned around.
"En?" Xia Ke looked up at Su Li.
Looking at Xia Ke's bright, shining eyes, Su Li's lips twitched slightly. Damn, her gaze was intoxicating; he felt like committing a crime!
After five seconds, Su Li shook off his wild thoughts. Taking a deep breath, he said word by word, "Xia Ke, I like you!"
Swish.
Instantly, Xia Ke's face turned bright red.
After a long while, she finally said, "Me too! I like you too!"
After saying this, Xia Ke's skin gradually returned to its fair complexion, leaving only a thin layer of pink, making her look exceptionally alluring.
"So, can I be your boyfriend?" Su Li asked again.
"Okay!"
Although Su Li's way of expressing himself was a bit strange, Xia Ke agreed without hesitation.
Seeing Xia Ke nod, Su Li felt a slight relief. Damn, this whole process was exhausting!
But, on Earth, wasn't this process usually necessary? He wondered how others managed to confess their feelings with such deep emotion.
[Maybe it's because they genuinely put their feelings into it?]
[...]
[No, I have genuine feelings too!] Thinking of something unpleasant, Su Li immediately began to hypnotize himself.
He told himself that others were also suffering, and they were just better actors than him.
He told himself that he actually had genuine feelings...
Half an hour later, at a barbecue restaurant in the Oriental Mall, Su Li and Xia Ke were cozily eating barbecue together.
Su Li had grilled several E-Class creatures on Primal Star, so he was quite experienced with barbecuing.
This kind of self-service barbecue was perfect for him to showcase his skills.
"This is great!"
Seeing Xia Ke take another piece of grilled meat that he offered, Su Li couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Dating felt so good. Su Li now felt that it didn't matter what he liked about Xia Ke; what mattered was that he liked how he felt right now!
"En!"
Hearing Su Li's感慨, Xia Ke also nodded.
"Here, have another piece!" Su Li picked up another piece of grilled meat and brought it to Xia Ke's mouth.
Su Li knew that Xia Ke usually ate a lot, so he wasn't worried about her getting fat at all. He fully enjoyed the pleasure of feeding her.
"You eat too!" Xia Ke pushed the grilled meat to Su Li's mouth. Su Li didn't hesitate and swallowed the meat in one bite.
Time slowly passed as they fed each other. To Su Li's surprise, he and Xia Ke ate eight servings of barbecue, with Xia Ke eating the majority of it!
When they were paying, Xia Ke blushed shyly under the cashier's slightly strange gaze. She quietly said to Su Li, "I couldn't eat this much before. I didn't expect my appetite to grow even larger after becoming a Superhuman!"
Su Li: "..."
Xia Ke's ability to eat a lot wasn't the main point; the real shock was that she was now a Superhuman. When did that happen?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Su Li's mind. Could Xia Ke's stunning beauty today be because he had awakened some talent that increased charm?
The possibility seemed quite high!
"Actually, it's a good thing for girls to eat a lot!" Su Li recovered and said to Xia Ke, "Compared to that, your becoming a Superhuman is what truly surprises me!"
"En, I was about to say that, but then I forgot..."
As for why she forgot, asking those bystanders who were witnessing their public display of affection would tell you everything!
"It's not too late to say it now. It's quite impressive to say my girlfriend is a Superhuman!" Su Li said with a hint of joy.
In fact, Su Li wasn't happy about the prestige of saying it. Xia Ke becoming a Superhuman meant they were now on the same path, in a sense. They had a common topic, which would make things more interesting between them!
"Actually, it's nothing much. I was just lucky! I somehow learned the Breathing Technique. My previous attempts at cultivation weren't very successful, but after drinking a few bottles of Energy Potion my dad bought me this afternoon, I succeeded!"
Su Li: "..."
Xia Ke's experience sounded rather familiar. Wasn't that exactly his script?
He drank an Energy Potion and then became a Superhuman.
"Maybe it's because I usually eat a lot and my body is healthier?" Xia Ke analyzed, then added, "Su Li, you're stronger than me, you'll definitely succeed too!"
"I haven't finished yet, what are you rushing for?" Su Li looked at Xia Ke with a half-smile and said, "Actually, you can also save face when you go out, because your boyfriend, Su Li, is also a Superhuman, and just like you, he succeeded this afternoon."
Su Li's words made Xia Ke freeze for a moment. After a while, she finally reacted.
"Really?!"
"Of course, would I lie to you?" Smiling, Su Li added, "You haven't registered at the Detective Bureau yet, have you? Let's go together tomorrow, how about it?"
"Mmm, mmm, mmm!"
Xia Ke nodded repeatedly.
"Haha! Then, esteemed Superhuman lady, may I invite you to go shopping now?"
"Mmm, mmm!"
Su Li and Xia Ke played until very late before finally stopping.
Although Su Li really wanted to stay out with Xia Ke, it would obviously scare her, so in the end, Su Li sent Xia Ke back.
Even though Xia Ke, now a Superhuman, would generally not be afraid of ordinary people, sending his girlfriend home was a matter of attitude. Su Li wasn't stupid, so of course he wouldn't let Xia Ke go back alone!
When Su Li returned to the dorm, it was already very late, and even the curfew had passed.
But this didn't trouble Su Li. Although they were on the fourth floor, they found a corner and climbed directly up the wall to the fourth-floor balcony.
Of course, you could also say he jumped up!
After all, he was already "F-" now, so doing things that ordinary people couldn't was normal.
Su Li's sudden appearance on the balcony startled the three people who were talking in the dorm.
However, when they clearly saw that it was Su Li, their eyes immediately became strange.
"What's... wrong with you guys?" Su Li felt creeped out by their stares, so he touched his face. Nothing seemed wrong.
After a long while, Zheng Hongyu sighed, "Life winner!"
Su Li: "..."
"Sigh, while I was still struggling with my studies, you had already become a Superhuman. While I was still struggling with being single, you already had a beautiful girlfriend!" Zhang Yu said mournfully.
"You guys know?" Su Li asked in surprise.
"Xia Ke already posted on her Moments! She's flooding us with PDA!" Zhao Shengkai said calmly.
"Of course, I've eaten the most PDA. I also noticed that your and Xia Ke's avatars have become couple versions!"
"Haha, surprise, surprise!"
Su Li remembered that Xia Ke had indeed taken some photos and recorded a short video while they were eating barbecue, but he didn't expect her to post it on her Moments so quickly!
However, it was understandable that girls nowadays wanted the whole world to know when they were in a relationship!
"How did Xia Ke become so beautiful? Even with the highest-grade beauty filter, it's too exaggerated! If it weren't for the fact that she posted it on her Moments, I would never have believed it was Xia Ke!" Zheng Hongyu asked, completely puzzled.
"Cough!"
Clearing his throat, Su Li suddenly produced a semi-transparent long sword and said, "Old Zheng, Xia Ke has always been like this. Did you just misjudge her before?"
Zheng Hongyu: "..."
Zheng Hongyu glanced speechlessly at the long sword in Su Li's hand, then slowly nodded, "I guess so!"
"Heh, of course!"
