Beauty-Restoring Punch
Zhu Juntang grasped the hand pressing on her head, bent over and moved her body back, freeing herself from his palm. She wanted to bleat a couple of Mie Mie, but gave up.
Releasing Liu Chang'an's hand, Zhu Juntang slapped the back of his hand twice, then stepped on Liu Chang'an's foot.
Although the grandfather and his beloved granddaughter had a very good and warm relationship, Zhu Juntang felt that it wouldn't work if things continued like that. Sometimes, Zhu Juntang still liked to provoke Liu Chang'an, hoping that he would get a little angry.
His anger was roughly within the range where he felt an urge to force himself on her skirt and socks, but wouldn't actually do so, and certainly wouldn't turn around and beat her up.
This standard is rather difficult to grasp. Zhu Juntang has never been good at testing, and has often ended up being dealt with miserably because of his tests. To this day, he has not yet found a standard that suits him well.
These little slaps and stomps were intentional on Zhu Juntang's part, a way to build up his anger. Gradually increasing the dosage was a scientifically reasonable way to test him. For example, when Zhu Juntang visited the biological laboratory, some researchers demonstrated the function of certain drugs by gradually increasing the dosage to show the effect.
Liu Chang'an ignored Zhu Juntang's little actions. Because of his usual way of speaking, it was common for girls to touch him inappropriately, and he wouldn't retaliate by slapping them across the face.
Zhu Juntang's penchant for provoking him through subtle actions wasn't due to her language style. Even though this mount outwardly bleated Mie Mie, as an Immortal Sheep, it still harbored restless desires. Liu Chang'an knew she liked to cause trouble, so he generally ignored her.
"I've noticed that Liu Chang'an likes to wear shoes with soft outer shells and soft soles, like cloth shoes and leather shoes. He doesn't wear sneakers much. As a boy, he doesn't even own a pair of Air Jordans." After stepping on Liu Chang'an's foot, Zhu Juntang placed her toes on his toes and stepped on a few of his toes to feel the shoes before saying this to Bai Hui.
"You stepped on my foot once, fine, but you even pretended to analyze my shoe-wearing habits and stepped on it several times." Liu Chang'an discovered Zhu Juntang's true intentions. "Are you asking for a beating again?"
"No!" Zhu Juntang shook her head, refusing to admit it, and boldly stretched out her foot, "Just step back on it."
Liu Chang'an stomped down.
Zhu Juntang screamed and quickly shrank back. She hadn't expected Liu Chang'an to actually step on her, but she was prepared. After shrinking back, she giggled and hid behind Bai Hui.
Liu Chang'an certainly wouldn't chase after her and step on her. If he really wanted to step on her, he could jump up and step on her head to fulfill her wish to be a little shorter.
"Stop fooling around, a lot of people are secretly watching this side," Bai Hui reminded them. Actually, watching Zhu Juntang and Liu Chang'an fooling around was a bit unsettling, since the two of them had not only shaken hands but also touched feet together.
In comparison, is it appropriate for a girl to step on a boy's feet, especially intentionally?
It's worth noting that in many situations, a girl's feet are associated with certain erotic elements.
Bai Hui still remembers the last days of her senior year of high school. She was Liu Chang'an's deskmate, and sometimes she would inevitably bump into his feet or step on his feet under the desk.
It was the height of summer then, and everyone's shoes were light and cool, sometimes even barefoot. When their bare feet touched, Bai Hui felt like she'd been electrocuted and would quickly and shyly move away... Of course, on the surface, she acted as if nothing had happened; it was just an everyday, unintentional touch. Why was she shy? Because she was a reserved young girl, and it had nothing to do with anything else.
"Did someone secretly film us? If I caught them, I'll have them beaten up." Zhu Juntang was very assertive, after all, she had brought three truckloads of Bread Man with her. In addition to those who had come in, there were also Bread Man who were actually in charge of security but couldn't dance, scattered outside the venue.
"Actually, it's inevitable to get photographed at comic conventions. But you can just openly ask if you can take a picture or have a photo taken with someone. There's no need to hide in the distance and try to take pictures like that." Bai Hui had seen it all before and said somewhat nonchalantly. In fact, she had even had some unflattering photos taken of her and posted on various social media platforms.
Comments often include things like, "Look how ugly she is in real life!", "Hui Four is only good at filming videos!", and "I've seen her in person, she's really unbearable to look at."
Some fans or passersby would defend her, but there's nothing to care about. Bai Hui knows very well that there are many people who are malicious towards her. Once someone achieves success and gains popularity, there will always be people who come out to slander and smear them.
Isn't she standing here looking beautiful? What annoys her is that there are countless praises for her online, but Liu Chang'an always thinks she looks average.
"All you do is call people, don't you plan to learn any skills yourself?" Liu Chang'an said to Zhu Juntang, not understanding why Su Nanxiu hadn't improved Zhu Juntang's physique. It shouldn't be that Su Nanxiu didn't value Zhu Juntang; Su Nanxiu intended to groom Zhu Juntang as her successor, which was something Su Nanxiu was actually doing. It's just that Zhu Juntang was a bit difficult for Su Nanxiu to handle, unlike many stories of wealthy heiresses who, no matter how silly they acted, could still be labeled as "business prodigies."
She's genuinely silly, and that's her defining characteristic.
Of course, this is Liu Chang'an's opinion; others may not see her that way.
"Why should I learn that? I'm a fairy! If I wanted to hit someone, I'd call for help. Can you imagine? If I were rolling up my sleeves and punching and kicking someone, would I still be a fairy?" Zhu Juntang wouldn't have it. "The fairies on TV always float around and dance gracefully; they never hit anyone."
"Then show me how you float down the street."
Zhu Juntang then imitated the way fairies make their entrances on TV, jogging around Liu Chang'an once.
Liu Chang'an shut his mouth. He realized that arguing with Zhu Juntang was simply being influenced by her aura.
"Hitting people is not a good thing, and there's nothing to learn from it. Not everyone is like you and likes to solve problems with violence." Bai Hui admired Zhu Juntang's cuteness and confidence.
Bai Hui could imagine that if she always acted like a fairy in front of Liu Chang'an, he would definitely make the fairy feel ashamed of her face falling to earth.
"All the problems in this world can be solved with violence." Liu Chang'an didn't say more, since the fairies wouldn't understand anyway.
"I didn't sleep well last night, and my face is a little swollen. Does that mean I can solve this with violence?" Bai Hui retorted to Liu Chang'an, hands on her hips. Besides, the swelling was entirely his fault! Last night, she suddenly felt that he might not come to the comic convention, and she couldn't sleep even while hugging her doll, thinking about all sorts of random things.
"That really works." Liu Chang'an rubbed his hands together.
"What do you want to do?" Bai Hui asked in terror.
"I'll use force to fix your swollen face."
"No!" Bai Hui quickly recalled the scene of Qiu Xiang being brutally beaten by Tang Bohu's "Beauty-Restoring Punch," and she felt that Liu Chang'an was really capable of doing it!
She was right, and Liu Chang'an didn't force her and gave up.
"Me, me, me!"
Bai Hui refused in fear, but there are always those who are not afraid of death, Zhu Juntang pointed to himself enthusiastically.
"What?"
I think my face is a little swollen too.
"Come on." Liu Chang'an loved to please Zhu Juntang the most.
After saying that, he pulled Zhu Juntang toward the guest dressing room.
Bai Hui followed them in fear, watching the two of them walk into the locker room.
All that could be heard was a series of "slap slap slap" sounds, and soon the locker room door opened, and Liu Chang'an and Zhu Juntang came out.
Zhu Juntang's face was indeed no longer puffy at all, and even seemed a little smaller. Her cheeks were rosy, cute, and beautiful, but they were also teary-eyed, and she pouted aggrievedly, as if she might burst into tears at any moment.
Seeing the fairy girl get punished by Liu Chang'an, Bai Hui felt a pang of heartache. What had Liu Chang'an just done to Zhu Juntang?
The "slap slap slap" sound was suggestive, but so fast... Bai Hui blushed. Honestly, what was she thinking?
