I’m Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl

I don’t want to admit it, but it’s likely both Ai Mi and I inherited Ai ShuQiao’s crazy genes.

Ai Mi actually invited me to go for a walk in Dong Shan city’s central street in the middle of a rainstorm.

Speaking about central street, the municipal government actually put in a lot of effort and money into it when I was in grade five. (Around the time when Xiao Qin and my living complex got torn down and we were no longer neighbors) The construction style mimicked the central streets from other cities.

The tried to copy too many different ones, so it only seems out of place.

My dad once brought me here to stroll around on a blazing hot day. He pointed to a row of buildings near us and said those are Baroque style, those over there are Gothic style, and the ones on the left are classical French style, the ones on the right are postmodernist style, and we’re about to pass buildings with Romanticism style…

I ate my one dollar ice cream cone while telling my dad that I wasn’t interested. But I thought about how humans were not the only ones classified by socialism or capitalism, even architecture have different ideologies. When night falls, would the buildings rise up like Optimus Prime and fight over their different ideologies?

I would always accompany my sister for a walk and buy her as many ice cream cones she wants, but don’t choose a day with awful weather! Er Huan Road and San Huan Road have already been submerged, even if central street is located above sea level at the highest point in Dong Shan City, the water level would still be at your ankles!

“Ai Mi, can we go on a different day?” I tried to negotiate.

“No.” Ai Mi firmly declined, “Do you think it’s easy for me to get a day of break? You said you loved me a few days ago, but you’re not even willing to go on a walk with me?”

“But it’s pouring outside, none of the stores would even be open!”

“Who wants to buy things from those shitty stores?” Ai Mi said with disdain, “I only want to go for a walk.”

“Um… Dong Shan City doesn’t open the lights during the day to cut down on expenses.” I reminded her, “There’s a lot of dark clouds today, and since there’s no streetlights or sunlight, what if you fall….”

“That’s why I need my manservant to accompany me!” Ai Mi became impatient, “Besides I love it when there’s no sunlight, did you forget I was sensitive to UV rays? I love cloudy days and rain. Anyway, hurry up and get ready. I’ll be there soon in the RV to pick you up.”

“You like cloudy days and rain?” I covered my mouth and laughed, “Are you a frog?”

“No, you’re the one who’s a frog.” She said angrily, “And you’re the type that would never transform into a prince even if you were kissed a million times.”

Whatever, from a genetics standpoint, it wouldn’t be good for either of us if one of us was a frog.

I had no other alternative but to agree to Ai Mi’s unreasonable request. I put on waterproof clothes with rain boots to prevent getting soaked by the torrential rain.

I wondered how Ai Mi was going to pick me up in her RV if Er Huan Road and San Huan Road were both blocked. Or do Americans have some super-tech that allows her RV to fly.

The truth showed I was way off the mark. This American made RV from South Carolina costs around 2 millions USD and was an amphibious vehicle.

It can’t compete with the air force, but it can compete with the navy when traveling on flooded roads.

Once it enters water, a change would occur to the luxury bus. Two inflatable sacks would protrude from the outside and turn it into a luxurious yacht.

Peng TouSi arrived in front of my house with the RV. When he told me to get one the car (boat), an auntie who was standing in front of the building was stunned. After I jumped on, I seemed to have heard the auntie say: “It would be nice if I could play mahjong once on that…”

So the first thing on your mind when you get on a 2 million USD car is to play mahjong? Please don’t get too addicted.

Right when I was thinking about how the car could transform, Ai Mi caught me unaware as she arrived behind me.

She was wearing a white camisole with her double ponytails tied behind her head. She also had on a pair of red sandals and she looked very relaxed.

“Why are you dressed so burdensomely.” Ai Mi was unsatisfied when she saw my waterproof outfit along with my rain boots.

“You have to dress casually when going out for a stroll. You’re going to affect my mood dressed like that.”

“But it’s to cover myself from the rain.” I explained, “You should wear more too, at least a pair of rain boots… There’s a lot of coal factories near Dong Shan city, so the rain is not clean, you might even get blisters on your feet.”

I would always go out to play when I was a kid and run all over the place including into dirty water. It caused me to get a lot of uncomfortable blisters on my feet.

My dad wanted to pop them with a needle sanitized with a flame, but I wouldn’t let him and continued to run out and play with blisters on my feet.

But I ended up getting caught by the Little Tyrant. She told the other kids to hold me down while she popped all my blisters with a nearby stalk of straw!

It was torture. If I knew it was going to happen, I would have let my dad pop them.

But because she got pus sprayed on her, the Little Tyrant also got some blisters on her the next day. I heard she even cried in front of her mom.

She deserved it, who knew she would be so squeamish. I felt great at the time so I ate an extra half a bowl of food at every meal.

Wait, was she afraid of turning ugly? Did she already care a lot about her appearance at that time? If she cared a lot about her own face, then why did she keep hitting mines?

I get angry whenever I think about the past. Although I’m already 14 and I don’t like playing with toy robots, but hurry and return my Optimus Prime!

After I warned her about wearing sandals, Ai Mi completely disregarded it and said:

“I’m not afraid. I can even rest if I get sick.”

Not only did she ignore my advice, she even forced me to take off my rain clothes and I was left wearing a short white shirt.

I guess if my feeble sister isn’t afraid of getting sick, then there’s no reason for her Spartan brother to have a full suit of gear.

After I took off my top, AI Mi laid her sights on my waterproof pants and rain boots.

“We have to get wet when taking a stroll in the rain, so take off your pants too.”

I said awkwardly: “I only have underwear under it…”
