At the Age of Wolves and Tigers

August 1st:

Returning to work after my trip to Japan was a stark contrast to my previous life.

Carefree travel time obviously allows people to completely avoid thinking about other things, only needing to consider what to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, where to visit the sights each day, what angle to take photos from, and to shop around without any worries.

But the most important thing is being able to be with Xia Yan. Although work isn't tiring and is quite easy and fun, all I need to do every day is spend with the Hachimi...

But I still miss the other scenery I haven't been to yet.

I took a lot of photos and recorded videos during that time, and it took a while to organize them into an album. However, after picking and choosing each day, I was able to put together a nice album in about one or two weeks.

P. S. I didn't go surfing today.

August 4th:

With Xia Yan's Xia Yan approaching, figuring out what kind of unique gift would suit her taste has become a real headache.

Figurines? Game skins? Necklaces? Watches? Clothes?...

They all seem to be suitable gifts, but none of them quite feel like the right gift.

Actually, these seem to be some of my favorite things. Well, I'll talk about it with Xiao Fen later. After all, they've spent a lot of time together as siblings, so they'll probably know something about my preferences.

Dinner was delicious tonight. Xia Yan steamed egg custard, which tasted like pudding. It was a super successful dish. I feel like I'll be pestering Xia Yan to make this dish for the next while.

P. S. I couldn't resist today.

August 6th:

While chatting with Sister Li Xue during lunch break at the cat cafe, we somehow ended up talking about something really embarrassing.

Sister Li Xue and Brother Shan Qing had been planning to have a child for a long time, and they had already been trying for a while.

I've been preparing for this for a long time, and if it succeeds, I might need to be promoted from an employee like Hachimi to the store manager in charge of Wanmao.

Store manager?

That sounds very tempting.

And they'll definitely get a raise!!

Internships and job hunting no longer seem important. After all, if I could continue working here, I might be able to surpass Xia Yan's income and support this gigolo.

Suddenly, I felt happy going to work, all for the sake of becoming a rich woman who would support Xia Yan as soon as possible.

But having children...

For Sister Li Xue, there is indeed nothing to worry about, but is it too early for her and Xia Yan now?

P. S. I'm feeling down today, but this is just a one-time thing.

August 8th:

Today, Xia Fen and I went shopping for a gift for Xia Yan. Xiao Fen bought a mouse, while I plan to buy a really cool helmet so that Xia Yan can ride his motorcycle safely in the future.

Xia Fen seemed much more cheerful than when I first met her. Although we were in the same university, it seemed quite difficult to see her even once.

The biggest change when you go from high school to university is probably that you have more free time.

Xiao Fen's WeChat Moments are full of photos of her travels; she even goes out to travel and shop during short holidays of only a few days.

Perhaps this is how carefree students who don't need to worry about making money can be.

I wonder when I'll be able to win five million in the lottery. The last few times I bought tickets, I didn't even win a single yuan. It feels like the odds of winning are lower than scratch-off tickets and double gold tickets.

While shopping with Xiao Fen, I bought a lot of snacks and also tried Mixue's new product... Uh, the weird taste came back to me. As expected, the glutinous rice lemon tea is a purely heretical product, and I can't appreciate it.

I'm really looking forward to Xia Yan's birthday soon. I wonder what kind of expression he'll have...

P. S. I was bored today and watched some videos on JM and couldn't control myself. My apologies.

August 10th:

Today is Xia Yan's birthday.

That's right, we've been planning and preparing for this day for the past two months!

First, you need to act as if it's nothing out of the ordinary, without revealing any unusual situation. This way, you won't let Xia Yan notice anything amiss, and you can save all the surprises for the evening.

Shopping all day and buying a lot of things was really tiring, but luckily at noon I had a delicious bowl of beef noodles at a noodle shop. Compared to other prices, it was amazing that I could get a bowl of beef noodles with a lot of meat for only twelve yuan.

But after returning home, something unexpected happened.

Xia Yan went home early.

His perfect plan—to decorate the house, wait by the door, and present the gift he had bought to Xia Yan as soon as he returned home, giving him a huge surprise—was ruined.

However, watching Xia Yan busy cooking in the kitchen, I don't know why, but I suddenly felt like crying, and my heart ached.

Today is Xia Yan's birthday, but Xia Yan doesn't seem to care. Instead, she's still looking out for me and taking care of me, thinking about getting off work early to cook me a hot and delicious meal.

This person is so gentle it's almost unfair.

If it's an act, he could probably keep up the act for a lifetime without being exposed.

I could tell that Xia Yan really liked my gift and was happy that I remembered his birthday. How could I pretend to ignore the fact that he was so happy that he almost drooped his head?

I really am a perfect girlfriend.

Finally, after watching the film's use of restraint and subtlety to build suspense, we arrive at the most important part.

Wearing an attack speed outfit and white stockings, if I don't exhaust Xia Yan, this novice boy, I'd be doing myself a disservice for the money I spent on this!

I have to have a really good time.

Something's changed; something's not right.

It's like I've opened Pandora's box. I've fainted countless times throughout the night, my clothes are tattered and torn, and the white stockings on my legs are snagged like rags.

But my still-clear mind told me I couldn't give up yet, but after Xia Yan replaced the rheostat, it didn't work for me.

I underestimated Xia Yan.

P. S. I used up a box tonight.

August 11th:

Today is a day off, no need to work. Xia Yan woke up before me this morning. When I felt sore all over and could barely get out of bed, Xia Yan thoughtfully prepared breakfast.

I was quite satisfied, but who knew he would also prepare 001.

P. S. I used up half a pack of [something] in the living room and bathroom today.

August 12th:

I was supposed to be at work today, but I unusually took the day off.

When Sister Li Xue asked me why, I silently said that I wanted to play games with Xia Yan at home today. Fortunately, there haven't been many customers lately, so I didn't feel guilty because Sister Li Xue wouldn't deduct money from my pay since I had taken the day off.

P. S. Today I am a game.

That was the little incident in Tokyo before.

Although I can't see it, its buttocks must be very red.

Some strange attribute has awakened.

(Another pack finished.)
