Xiao Wu, You Wouldn't Want Your Brother San to Default on His Soul Power Loan, Would You?

"Xiao Wu, help me, please!"

Tang San dropped to his knees with a thud and pleaded desperately.

To obtain enough Soul Power and a little more time to repay his loan.

Tang San had humiliatingly agreed to the demand that Xiao Wu serve as Sun Shan's playmate and accompany him around Suotuo City.

Such a cuckolding condition.

Under normal circumstances, Tang San would never have let Xiao Wu spend a day out with Sun Shan.

But now he faced the desperate prospect of forced liquidation.

Never underestimate a gambling dog's dying counterattack.

Gambling dogs were no longer human!

Beneath shells identical to their former selves, their human souls had long since vanished. What dwelled within were demons.

Rakshasa fiends that had crawled up from hell!

Anyone who approached them would be sucked dry and wrung out, turned into a mountain of chips on their table.

"One more time, just one more time! I can definitely, definitely turn this around!"

The surging madness within gambling dogs.

Would burn like the raging fires of hell, consuming everything beautiful around them.

Whether people or things, all that remained in the end was pale ash strewn across the ground.

As the legitimate eldest son of the old guard, Tang San had never dared sit down for a drink with his father.

He feared seeing Tang Hao's fathomless eyes.

Tang Hao's praise was what Tang San wanted most in his life.

The disappointment in Tang Hao's eyes was Tang San's greatest fear.

So Tang San did not dare, under any circumstances, let word get out that his position was about to be liquidated.

And so he kept covering one lie with another.

"The guy who gave you that rabbit-bear plushie came to Suotuo City. He wants you to show him around."

Xiao Wu immediately refused. "Brother San, we agreed not to talk about this anymore."

"There will never be anything between him and me again."

Xiao Wu pulled Tang San up from his knees and carefully brushed the ash off his trouser legs.

"You're the only one in Xiao Wu's heart, my Brother San!"

Had he heard Xiao Wu's heartfelt confession at any other time.

Tang San would have been overjoyed.

But now his heart held only bitterness.

Tang San spoke with difficulty:

"Go spend a day with him."

"Huh?" Xiao Wu almost thought she had misheard him. "Brother San, what are you saying!"

Xiao Wu grew somewhat agitated.

"Don't ask. Really, don't ask anymore. Just do it for me..."

"All right, Brother San. Xiao Wu would do anything for you."

Xiao Wu hugged Tang San's arm, looking sweet and happy.

The pure and unsullied Tang San mocked himself bitterly:

After deceiving the teacher who cares for me, I'm now deceiving the girl I love.

The title of the world's greatest wretch belongs to none other than me, doesn't it?

The next day.

Tang San brought Xiao Wu to Sun Shan and threatened him fiercely:

"You'd better not try anything with Xiao Wu, or I'll make you pay!"

"Who for miles around doesn't know that I, Brother Sun, am famous for my kindness?"

Sun Shan raised an eyebrow, his words carrying a hidden meaning.

"I'm always doing good deeds. When I see stray dogs starving by the road, I even toss them meaty bones. You should know that firsthand, right, Old Tang?"

Tang San: "..."

Xiao Wu led Sun Shan aimlessly around Suotuo City, one walking ahead of the other.

Suddenly, Sun Shan noticed that Xiao Wu, walking in front, was bundled up as tightly as a rice dumpling today.

Sun Shan's face twitched in displeasure:

"Am I some big bad wolf that specializes in eating rabbits?"

Sun Shan took Xiao Wu straight to a clothing shop.

At this, Xiao Wu tilted her head, looking adorably clueless, and hurriedly said:

"Wrong place, isn't it? If you want clothes, you should go to a men's shop. They only sell women's clothes here."

Sun Shan picked up a classic maid outfit and tossed it straight to Xiao Wu:

"Put it on."

Xiao Wu resisted, her face full of shame and indignation:

"You... you shameless, filthy creep!"

Sun Shan laughed. "Xiao Wu, if you're asking for a favor, act like it."

"Asking for a favor?" Xiao Wu was thoroughly confused.

"Oh, looks like our little Brother Tang has been hiding something."

The corners of Sun Shan's mouth rose as he remembered something amusing:

"Xiao Wu, let me tell you the truth!"

When Xiao Wu learned the truth, her tender maiden heart shattered to pieces, and she was instantly overwhelmed with pain.

For a moment, she could not accept that her Brother San, who loved her so much, could actually do such a thing just to postpone his debt.

Push his own beloved into someone else's hands!

Sun Shan frowned, thoroughly displeased by the sobbing girl before him, and urged:

"Xiao Wu, you wouldn't want your Brother San to default on his Soul Power loan, would you?"

"I understand." Xiao Wu pressed her lips together, her voice full of hurt.

She turned and entered the changing room.

When she came back out, Xiao Wu's appearance had been completely transformed.

She wore a black-and-white maid outfit with a heart-shaped cutout at the chest, paired with short white socks and classic black Mary Janes.

Xiao Wu had excellent proportions, and this outfit made her assets even more apparent.

Her long, fair thighs gleamed in the sunlight.

Without deliberately striking any alluring poses, she drew the gazes of a great many gentlemen.

Only the pair of rabbit ears on her head drooped, making her look listless.

Her beautiful eyes were red; she had clearly just cried.

Sun Shan grabbed Xiao Wu and took her to a secluded private clubhouse.

Xiao Wu looked around and discovered that she and Sun Shan were the only two people there.

A man and a woman alone in one room.

Xiao Wu's guard shot up. Hugging her chest, she backed away several steps:

"What do you want to do?"

"Yes!" Sun Shan teased. "I want you to make me a cup of coffee."

Xiao Wu let out a long breath. "That's all?"

Sun Shan tilted his head and looked Xiao Wu up and down:

"What else did you want to do?"

Xiao Wu's pretty face flushed:

"N-nothing. I was overthinking it."

As Xiao Wu made the coffee, she recalled Sun Shan's teasing and felt deeply annoyed.

Her little face was rosy, looking charming and adorable:

Normally, I'd have treated him to an Eight-Stage Throw already!

At that thought, Xiao Wu immediately made a scalding cup of coffee, planning a little revenge.

"It's a displeasure to serve you." Xiao Wu set the coffee before Sun Shan.

Hurry up and drink it! Scald yourself to death, you big idiot!

Xiao Wu looked full of anticipation.

The corners of Sun Shan's mouth twitched. He was utterly speechless.

What a stupid rabbit. Xiao Wu, your expression gave you away ages ago!

"A maid should act like a maid." Sun Shan pointed at the scalding coffee on the table. "You should call me Master, then blow on it and feed it to me!"

"You... you're asking for a beating!" Xiao Wu clenched her delicate fists.

"Don't you want to help your Brother San?"

Xiao Wu trembled, all her defiance gone. She lowered her head as though resigning herself to her fate:

"Understood, Master."

Having lifted a rock only to drop it on her own foot, Xiao Wu pouted and reluctantly blew on Sun Shan's coffee to cool it.

"Xiao Wu, do you know what I admire most about you?"

Xiao Wu snorted coldly, her delicate brows tightly furrowed. The corners of her mouth turned down as she bared a little canine tooth, her eyes icy.

A textbook look of disgust.

"Good, hold that! That's exactly the look. Wonderful!" Sun Shan clapped and laughed.

"I love seeing you like this, looking utterly disgusted but having no choice but to serve me and wait on me. Hahahaha!"

A girl who was normally so proud, forced by threats, despite the disgust on her face.

Still had to obey the fellow she had once despised.

In the end, his teasing left her blushing, her heart racing, and her composure thoroughly undone.

What could be more entertaining than that?

After a day of torment in body and mind, the "bunny girl" Xiao Wu returned to Shrek Academy.

All Xiao Wu wanted now was a hot bath.

At the academy gates.

Tang San had already been waiting anxiously for a long time.

Seeing that Xiao Wu had even changed her clothes during her outing, he immediately panicked, his mind filling with all sorts of scenarios.

Then he remembered the nightmare he had had before.

"Xiao Wu, that guy didn't do anything to you, did he?"

Tang San pulled Xiao Wu into his arms, his voice highly agitated.

Smack!

Xiao Wu abruptly broke free of Tang San's embrace and delivered a backhanded slap.

"Brother San, my dear Brother San, you certainly did a fine job of deceiving Xiao Wu!"
