Chapter 402 – Characteristic 1
The class leader sighed after Xiao Qin recommended herself to become the new literature and arts committee member.
“Xiao Qin, I’m not trying to upset you, but I’ve seen your drawings before. Those drawings are beyond the scope of what a normal person can appreciate, even Ye Lin draws better than you… besides, the reason why we’re leaving the position open is so Zhuang Ni knows the class still needs her…”
The class leader’s words were reasonable, but Xiao Qin covered her face and ran to me crying.
She appeared as if she didn’t want to live anymore even though she was crying without any tears.
“Sob sob~~~ the class leader’s bullying me. She said my drawings are ugly and she wants me to get sick instead of Zhuang Ni, so she could come back and be the arts committee member.”
Zhuang Ni was originally the arts committee member, and when did the class leader tell you to be sick instead of her? If the class leader was softhearted and let you handle the drawings on our class’ blackboard bulletin, we would become the laughingstock of the school.
I gave a call to my dad during the rest period between classes.
I quickly briefed him about Su Qiao living at our home for a bit. Of course, I didn’t mention Su Qiao’s relationship with Ai ShuQiao, I simply said she was the sister of our friend who ran into some troubles and needed a place to stay.
“It’s good to help others.” My dad said through the phone, “But how old is she, can she live together with someone of the opposite sex?”
“She’s 18. I won’t be tempted by a girl 4 years older than me, so don’t worry…”
“Who knows what will happen.” my dad was full of doubt, “I liked mature girls when I was your age.”
No shit, you were always an older sister-con.
“Is she a beauty?” My dad asked.
Although Su Qiao lacks self confidence and always says Shu Zhe in drag looks better than her, I would still give her 7.5 out of 10. And I don’t want to admit it, but Shu Zhe in drag and the class leader are all a solid 9.
As for 10s, out of everyone I’ve seen in the real world, only Ai Mi could be considered a 10. But she’s too beautiful and gives off an unobtainable aura. Plus, if I wasn’t her brother and viewed her as a normal boy, her personality is terrible. I have to educate her properly so she can actually get married in the future.
At this point, many would wonder how Xiao Qin would score out of 10. I refuse to score her, even if I did, I would factor in her breasts and make her ranked last.
I responded to my dad’s question:
“She’s an actor. Around the same level as the female student in the past who wanted to be in a relationship with you.”
“Oh, most people would be satisfied if they can get a wife at that level…”
If that’s the case, why didn’t you agree to her? Anyone would be a better mother than Ai ShuQiao! And I actually really like that female student since she gave me a lot of candy.
“Xiao Qin, you better control yourself if you’re living together with a beautiful older sister…”
“Don’t jinx it, we’re not even living together yet.”
“It’s hard to resist against the allure of an older woman…”
I’m not a damn sister-con, I don’t need your advice. I’m more concerned about what’s going on between you and Auntie Ren.
“Dad, did you find any clues about the necklace Auntie Ren lost at the hotel?”
“No, it seems she’s pretty anxious, but there are no leads at all.”
After chatting a bit more, the bell rang, so I hung up.
I abruptly remembered Eunuch Cao told me Director Cao was looking for me. I asked Eunuch Cao what was going on during free time, but he told me the situation was going through some changes and he would let me know when it was finalized.
I could tell it’s not anything good.
It was cloudy in the afternoon, but it didn’t rain, so we still had to participate in PE class after lunch.
I saw Xiao Qin sleeping on her desk when I returned to class after lunch. She had changed into her sports uniform and placed the running shoes I bought for her under her chair. It seems she was prepared to change on the shoes and participate in PE right when the bell rings (even if she’s only a spectator).
But I realized a box of thumbtacks were placed next to the running shoes. She even used chalk to draw a giant arrow with the words thumbtack next to it.
What are you doing? Are you waiting for the class leader to come and harm you? Do you think she would place the thumbtacks in your shoes once she sees them?
Xiao Qin, who was pretending to sleep, sneaked a peak with one eyes when she heard footsteps, but closed her eyes in disappointment when she realized it was me.
“Why doesn’t the female antagonist come and harm me… if she doesn’t harm me, how would I get married to Ye Lin classmate…”
Xiao Qin muttered.
I patted her head and asked:
“What does the class leader harming you have anything to do with us getting married?”
Xiao Qin raised one finger, “According to shoujo manga, first, the female antagonist will do something to harm or frame the female protagonist. Then the male protagonist would misunderstand the female protagonist and that’s when the female antagonist would make her move. But in the end the misunderstanding will always be cleared and the female antagonist will be abandoned. The male and female protagonist will end up as a couple…. and that’s a perfect ending.”
I knew she still wasn’t done talking.
“But, but the class leader never does anything, so how will the plot develop? If the plot of a manga develops too slow, we may end up being cut by the publishers.”
I asked her a question using her logic: “Xiao Qin, have you thought about the fact that maybe you’re not the female protagonist?”
“Huh, no way.” Xiao Qin’s eyes widened.
I also stuck up one finger like her.
“Look, first, you bought a death note and wrote the class leader’s name.”
Xiao Qin curled her lips and nodded.
“Next, you forced the class leader to eat your cooking at your home and almost made her explode from overeating.”
Xiao Qin nodded again.
“And you bully Gong CaiCai every time you see her.”
“That’s not my fault.” Xiao Qin defended herself, “That’s the anger the peasants feel against the rich!”
I waved my hands to make Xiao Qin quiet down and continued to list out her crimes:
“Do I need to mention when you… shamed Winnie in class. If you think harder, can you find any female protagonist as bad as you?”
Xiao Qin blinked and thought a bit with a worried expression.
“But it’s because the class leader didn’t advance the plot…”
She argued.
“Stop arguing. Do you think you could advance the plot by harming others?” I slapped the desk and Xiao Qin jumped in fright, “What’s the main characteristic of the female antagonist?”
“Being envious of the female protagonist and harming others.”
I poked the table, but I really wanted to poke Xiao Qin awake.
“Based on your response, don’t you fit the criteria of the female antagonist?”
Xiao Qin shuddered and put her hands around her head in shock.
“Ahhhh, I did all those things unwittingly, what should I do?”
“What do you mean?” I said joyously, “Just admit you’re the female antagonist.”
Xiao Qin was at a loss and didn’t participate in PE. But when I went back to class, she already calmed down and had a victorious smile on her face.
“I won’t let the spot of the female protagonist be stolen away.” Xiao Qin declared, “I’m going to give myself a new characteristic.”
“Huh?” I raised one of my eyebrows.
“One of the class leader’s characteristic is the Justice Devil so the chance of her doing something bad is low. If she’s not willing to do it, then I’ll sacrifice myself for the manga and do bad things.”
You make it sound like a great achievement, but you probably just love doing bad things. You might as well just go and become the female antagonist.
“No, it was only in older manga where the female protagonist wouldn’t do bad things. In newer manga, there are a lot of female protagonist who love playing pranks as long as you have a kind heart.”
The one thing you lack is a kind heart! Unless the new characteristic you’re going to add is a kind heart, but where are you going to find one? Are you going to pull out the class leader’s heart?
Damn, now the shoujo manga is a horror manga!
“Ye Lin classmate, my new characteristic is cat.”
“What?”
“Stop~~~ or do you want me to repeat myself in cat talk?” Xiao Qin held her cheeks bashfully, “Meow, meow ~~~ did you understand?”
“Understand what? Didn’t you say your last characteristic was a shoujo manga, so how did it become cat?”
Xiao Qin held her chin and thought about it, “All the cute characteristics belong to me. I’ll still my old characteristics once I get a new characteristic. From now on I’m a mangaka cat shoujo girl.”
“Are you a cat or a shoujo?”
Xiao Qin stuck up two of her fingers next to her head like ears and said cutely: “I’m a cat and a shoujo who can also draw manga.”
I’ve never even seen a cat who can hold a pencil! Why don’t grow out some thumbs first before you become a mangaka.
“(^ω^) Ye Lin classmate, Ye Lin classmate…”
Don’t use your fingers as whiskers and make a cat face. Even if you act as a cat, you can’t erase the fact that you only do bad things.
“(*^__^*) Hehe… you’re wrong, cats are different than other creatures, they have special privileges.”
“Special privilege?”
“That’s right. Everyone who’s raised a cat knows cats are bad. They would frequently catch birds, bite rabbits, but they’re always forgiven because of how cute they are.”
“Don’t think too much, I just want to be a bit mischievous~ Why are you scared, do you hate cats?”
“Well, if I had to choose between liking or hating cats, I would like them, but so what?”
“Ahhh, so you like cats.”
“….”
“Do you know I’m a cat?”
Xiao Qin said as she placed her two hands like paws on her knees. She blinked her eyes waiting for me to speak.
Stop being naive. Do you think it’s as simple as the equation A=B, B=C, so A=C? I won’t say I like you just because I like cats.
Also, Ai Mi would be the closest to a cat. You would be a saber-tooth! A saber-tooth who can easily kill over 100 cats!
“Ahh… so Ye Lin classmate is shy and doesn’t want to admit he likes me. Meow~”
Who’s shy? You’re the one who should be shy for ending your sentences with a meow.
“Anyway, I’m (づー ₃ ーづ)… now a cat. My new characteristic is a mangaka cat shoujo.”
“But it’s a bit annoying with too many characteristics. When I’m a mangaka shoujo, I’ll still be celery-sensei, but when I’m a cat, I’ll be Mao Qin. Which one do you like better?”
I don’t like either of them. And did you just add the cat characteristic to do something bad? What exactly do you want to do and why do you think you would be forgiven?
