I turned into a beautiful girl

Chapter 2 Cake and Gifts: Approaching Crisis (1)

"There are many kinds of cakes. Which one does Hua Ling like?"

Sitting face to face with Zhuang Xueying, Yu Xia had placed a small piece of cake in front of her for quite some time, but he had not even tasted a small bite. Looking at the various cake menus printed in his hand, Yu Xia hesitated for quite some time.

"Xiao Xia...if you really can't decide, you can call and ask Hua Ling."

"It's meaningless if Hua Ling guesses it. Let me think about it again. Xueying, if you are impatient to wait, you can leave first. Thank you very much for being able to accompany me to do my homework today and for bringing me here." I'll be embarrassed if I keep you waiting any longer."

"Xiaoxia, what are you talking about? If you say such things, even I will be angry."

"Yeah, sorry."

Zhuang Xueying, who had a gentle personality, showed a rare expression of dissatisfaction, her waxy voice was mixed with a hint of displeasure, and her eyes under the lenses stared at Yu Xia.

Sensing the change in Zhuang Xueying's atmosphere, Yu Xia shrank back. Although he didn't quite understand why Zhuang Xueying was angry, he immediately apologized to her.

"Ah, no... I should be the one saying sorry... getting angry without permission..."

Realizing her gaffe just now, Zhuang Xueying became a little panicked. The voice became fainter, she lowered her head, and her brown hair fell down to cover her blushing cheeks.

"It's okay, it's okay. If possible, Xueying, please help me choose the cake."

"Okay, I know."

Stepping down the steps that Yu Xia had found for herself, Zhuang Xueying scratched her cheek shyly and picked up another menu.

"Xiaoxia, what do you think of tiramisu? Hua Ling likes it very much."

"Hmm - I've thought about this... But Hualing always eats it every time she brings me to the dessert shop. I'm afraid she will get tired of it or think it's too ordinary."

"Oh... what about this Japanese-style matcha red bean cake? Xiaoxia, you like it too, and Hua Ling likes it too, right?"

"It's still the same...it's delicious if it's delicious...but as a celebration of her birthday, it still feels a bit ordinary..."

Shaking her head slightly, after Yu Xia rejected her proposal, Zhuang Xueying once again made another suggestion. Likewise, Yu Xia denied it.

"Is that so...then an ordinary birthday cake is definitely no good, right?"

"Yeah, that's right. The kind that only has cream and cake, I don't think it's very delicious..."

Perhaps realizing that her words were very critical, Yu Xia scratched the hair on the back of her head and smiled stiffly.

"What about these fondant cakes? They look pretty good."

"No...it looks good, but I heard others say it doesn't taste good."

"Then what kind of moonlight treasure box cake is this?"

"I don't know where the name comes from...it looks like an ordinary chocolate cake."

Zhuang Xueying kept making suggestions, but what she got was constant denial from Yu Xia. In the end, she seemed to have given up, staring blankly at the cake shapes and square words on the menu, and no longer made any suggestions that interfered with Yu Xia's thoughts.

"Woo..."

Hua Ling is so happy when she thinks about Hua Ling so much...

Making a sound like a cat's meow, Zhuang Xueying envied Hua Ling and looked at Yu Xia with longing eyes.

If it were my birthday, would Xiaoxia help me choose a cake so seriously and create a surprise for me?

No way?

To Xiaoxia, I am just an ordinary friend and classmate. He is completely different from Hua Ling, who can give him substantial help.

Seeing Yu Xia being stuck in the choice of cake, Zhuang Xueying began to think about it. A slightly dull expression slowly appeared on her face, and the thought of self-contempt made her heart feel like it was being burned.

But……

But is there anything I can do for Xiaoxia?

It’s not about helping to find delicious dessert shops, nor is it about helping teach students about topics they don’t know.

is more

more

More important things.

Do I have this power?

The cute little deer rushed hard and launched a violent collision against the wall called the heart that trapped it. Through its own collision, the deer hopes that the owner who trapped it can understand its feelings, and at the same time hopes that its fighting spirit will also reach the depths of the owner's heart.

Feeling the fighting spirit coming from deep inside, my self-contemptuous thoughts began to change. Then a positive and more powerful thought burst out in Zhuang Xueying's heart.

Her brain was spinning constantly, hoping that one day her meager strength could be used by Yu Xia. The weak Zhuang Xueying ignited an unprecedented fighting spirit.

What I can do is...

"Dear~~ You're back? Did you have a hard time fighting? I've already made a meal~~ Do you want to eat first? Or take a shower first? Or should I eat first?"

"Bang!"

The computer was overloaded and made a slight explosion sound, and white smoke floated from Zhuang Xueying's head. Her soft face turned red, and her pink lips opened and closed, as if she wanted to say something.

"Xue Ying? Are you okay? Your face is so red?"

"No, no, no, it's okay!"

She was so nervous that she couldn't speak fluently. Zhuang Xueying kept waving her hands, asserting to Yu Xia that she was normal. She was startled by her sudden thought and could not recover immediately.

"Are you really okay? Do you have a fever?"

"Ea--no, it's okay! Hahahahahaha."

Yu Xia's hand suddenly reached out to Zhuang Xueying's forehead, and a sharp scream of surprise came from her little mouth. Her voice kept trembling, and she had no time to pay attention to the surprised looks of the surrounding diners. Zhuang Xueying's vague answer turned into a dry and stiff laugh.

"It's okay, just tell me if you feel uncomfortable."

"I know, I know. Phew~~"

When Yu Xia's hand left her forehead, she breathed a sigh of relief followed by disappointment. Conflicting emotions raged in Zhuang Xueying's heart. After she calmed down a little, Zhuang Xueying covered her cheeks, which were as red as red-hot iron slurry, with a dinner plate. She pulled the dinner plate down so that her sight could smoothly peek into Yu Xia's appearance.

What are you thinking about? ! Idiot? ! Zhuang Xueying, are you an idiot? ! Why do you think of such things? !

In his mind, he pictured himself naked in an apron, talking to Yu Xia as they entered the entrance hall after returning home, just like a couple. While constantly scolding herself, Zhuang Xueying's cheeks became as hot as if they were about to burn.

if……

It would be great if my relationship with Xiaoxia could really develop like this...

Her head was slightly tilted to one side, and Zhuang Xueying's little hand was on her chin. Gradually forgetting to hide her gaze, Zhuang Xueying's eyes fell directly on Yu Xia through the lenses.

"Hello? Hua Ling? What's wrong?"

The cell phone rang suddenly, Yu Xia lowered her volume and answered the ringing cell phone. He pointed at the phone and signaled the caller to Zhuang Xueying, then walked out of the dessert shop.

"Is it Xiaoling..."

The posture of pressing her chin with her hand unconsciously changed to lying on the dining table. Zhuang Xueying's little head was pressed on her arm, and her eyes were looking through the glass at the outside world that was approaching dusk. Yu Xia, standing in front of the sunset, kept saying something to Hua Ling on the other end of the phone.

"If I don't work hard, it won't work..."

Her eyelids became heavy, and in a position suitable for sleeping, Zhuang Xueying gradually fell into sleep.

………

"Xue Ying, I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! I didn't expect to choose a cake so late."

After Yu Xia kept apologizing to Zhuang Xueying and ordered the cake for Hua Ling's birthday, it was already completely dark. The night sky is filled with stars, and the moon is half-covered by clouds, emitting a bright brilliance.

If the dessert shop hadn't been closing down and their pastry chef personally recommended it to Yu Xia, Yu Xia might not have been able to make a decision until late at night.

"No, there's no need to apologize... Although it's a bit exaggerated to choose it so late... And I was also wrong, so I'm sorry."

When Yu Xia woke up Zhuang Xueying, who was sleeping on the table, and saw the night falling here, she was stunned. It seems that he didn't expect that he would sleep until after ten o'clock in the evening.

She had no intention of blaming Yu Xia. Zhuang Xueying was just surprised that Yu Xia's selection time was too long. Faced with Yu Xia's constant apologies, Zhuang Xueying apologized to herself for losing her composure.

"No, no. It's my fault. I didn't notice you. I'm sorry."

"Yes, it's my fault. I'm sorry, Xiaoxia..."

The conversation between Yu Xia, who was apologetic, and Zhuang Xueying, who kept adjusting her glasses on the bridge of her nose, unknowingly turned into apologizing to each other.

"Ah hahahaha, the conversation seems to be getting weird."

"Yeah hahaha."

Helpless smiles appeared on their faces, and they laughed awkwardly.

"Xiao Xia, it took you so long to choose a cake...Hua Ling will definitely be very happy, right?"

"It's good to be happy..."

The topic changed.

Walking side by side with Yu Xia, looking at the stars twinkling in the night sky, Zhuang Xueying's voice was mixed with different emotions.

Not hearing the emotion in Zhuang Xueying's words, the dull Yu Xia said what was on her mind.

Hualing is so happy...

My heart seemed to be blocked by something. An indescribable pain eroded Zhuang Xueying's soul.

"By the way, Xueying, when is your birthday?"

"Eh? What happened on June 21?"

Yu Xia's seemingly casual question plucked Zhuang Xueying's heartstrings. The gleam of anticipation was born in her brown pupils, and her heart was beating a little faster than usual.

"June 21st... No, it's nothing. Just asking."

Avoiding Zhuang Xueying's gaze, Yu Xia scratched the back of his head with his hand and answered Zhuang Xueying in an unnatural tone.

"oh……"

Zhuang Xueying, who had no intention of asking further questions, noticed Yu Xia's feelings, and a sweet smile appeared on her cheeks without concealing it.

"What's wrong? You're smiling."

"No~~Yes~~"

After prolonging her voice and responding to Yu Xia with a smile, Zhuang Xueying accelerated her pace slightly.

"Thank you for taking me home so late."

"You're welcome. I'll be worried if you go home as a girl so late."

"I'll go upstairs first. Xiaoxia, you have to be careful alone."

"I know. Goodbye."

"See you."

Raising her little hand and waving towards Yu Xia, Zhuang Xueying opened the door downstairs and walked home until Yu Xia's figure completely disappeared into the night.

"Hehe, Hua Ling will definitely be surprised, right? The cake has been bought, and only the gifts and decorations are left. Tomorrow, I will buy the gifts with my sister and Chengzi. On the last day, I will find a reason to go out with Hua Ling and wait for Luo Just take the decorations back home and make them."

Thinking of Hua Ling smiling cutely because of her plan, Yu Xia couldn't hide her smile. With a slightly silly laugh, Yu Xia walked happily toward home.

Sudden changes occur.

A stream of pungent blood surged into Yu Xia's nasal cavity, as if something was staring at him stuck in his back. The killing intent that came like a tsunami invaded Yu Xia's body.

"Um?!"

He made a confused sound. Under Hua Ling's many magical baptisms, Yu Xia's facial features were more sensitive than ordinary people. Trusting the crisis signal generated in his heart, he ran towards the center where the killing intent was released.

Yu Xia dove into the trees in the park, although the murderous intention disappeared immediately after she noticed it. Remembering the approximate location where the murderous intent was released, he accelerated the search driven by an unknown premonition in his heart.

"Is it my imagination?"

In the woods of the small park, after Yu Xia searched, there was no one at all. After rushing out of the woods, there was no one in the small park illuminated by yellow lights.

Standing in this eerily silent park, Yu Xia frowned and murmured in a low voice. He glanced around, and after confirming again that there was no one nearby, Yu Xia quickened his pace to go home.

…★…

"Xiaoxia, have you finished taking a shower? Come to my room, I have something to tell you."

"Oh. It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you, sister."

Hearing the sound of Yu Xia opening the bathroom door, Yu Qiu opened the half-open door, stuck half of her head out, and motioned for Yu Xia to come to her room.

Nodding, wanting to discuss with Yu Qiu what happened when she came back, Yu Xia wrapped her wet hair in a towel and walked into Yu Qiu's room.

"Xiao Xia, sit on my bed and watch the videos of these TV shows."

"oh."

He responded softly to Yu Qiu, putting what his sister wanted to say to him first. Yu Xia sat obediently on the bed next to her, watching the video Yu Qiu clicked attentively.

The content of the video is a program similar to current affairs commentary broadcast on a certain TV station. It evaluates Yu Xia's recent battles after she became Katana.

Different from the usual programs that are overwhelmingly positive in content, this program seems to be more criticizing Yu Xia's behavior. Listed were the battles with Leya, the battle with Manyo Castle, and the recent battle with Eligar in the suburbs. Although the videos of the battles except for the time with Manyo Castle, which were followed by reporters, the other videos were all very special. Vague. But the photos and footage of the ruins after the battle are very clear.

The host of the show criticized Katana's unauthorized actions from a legal perspective and the ruins left after the battle. Elevating her to the level of a waste of taxpayers' money also makes people doubtful about the purpose of Katana with this powerful power.

"Xiaoxia, what do you think after reading it?"

The video ended, Yu Qiu narrowed his eyes, and his gaze fell on Yu Xia who was thinking.

"Hmm...it feels like I'm being told that I shouldn't be there..."

Lacking an adult's way of thinking and unable to formulate her thoughts into a refined part, Yu Xia could only express her thoughts in general terms.

"Absolutely... This show just wants to bring up such a rhythm. I don't want people to think that you are just here to help them. Let them know that you create more trouble than you help them. That's why they They say you're wasting taxpayers' money, after all most people care about their wallets."

Analyzing the information reflected in the video, Yu Qiu's tone became a little deeper while sitting on the computer chair with his hands clasping his knees.

"In the past, most people thought you were a hero or something. Coupled with your cute appearance, others overlooked something. That is that your fighting power is too strong, so strong that you can turn a place into ruins. This program also brings this point out.”

"..."

Yu Qiu's speech made Yu Xia feel the seriousness of the matter. He put his hands on his knees and showed a serious expression on his handsome face. Maintaining the sitting posture of the kindergarten child, Yu Xia did not make any other noise to disturb Yu Qiu's analysis.

"After this program puts forward these views, people will not only think about Katana defeating weirdos, this simple and naive idea. It is also likely to breed other ideas - should Katana exist in the world? this."

"But... why do you do such a thing? It turns into ruins. Eligo, Manye Castle and others are also responsible..."

"That's true, but you defeated them, proving that you are stronger than them. And your special blow has already broken the building into pieces with one blow, which was also seen in the video. This will make them Afraid.”

"This, this is it..."

Yu Xia's mood became depressed and she lowered her head, not knowing what to say at this time.

"The man behind promoting this kind of public opinion is most likely Noah Corporation or DDT."

"Eh? DDT?"

"Yes. Because your presence hinders them."

"Eh?"

Yu Qiu's words caused Yu Xia to become confused and make a dull voice. Yu Xia looked at Yu Qiu in confusion.

"Let's not talk about Bai Wenfeng's magic bomb last time. In the past few times, Xiaoxia, you have defeated too many weirdos and demons. This will make people think that the existence of DDT is incompetent. This is because they are incompetent. Things that are allowed.”

"If that's the case... the government agency is too stingy, isn't it?"

"That's how stingy you are. What's more important is that you are stronger than them, and you are not under their control."

"ah?"

The simple yet crude reason hit Yu Xia's heart. Under Yu Qiu's personal analysis, Yu Xia could not say anything else.

"It's just a program like this, but the direction of public opinion won't change too much. If every TV station broadcasts this kind of program, or if there are multiple similar analyzes on the Internet, the scale of public opinion will start to tip - so to speak. Say, Xiaoxia is still Xiaoxia, you just want to do what you want to do. By the way, what do you want to discuss with sister? If it is about having a child, it would be better to practice it directly with sister! "

Realizing that his words had placed too heavy a burden on Yu Xia, Yu Qiu skillfully changed the topic. Her beautiful face revealed a beautiful smile, but the words she spoke were quite unpleasant.

"That's not true!"

"It doesn't matter if it's not, let's practice it first!"

"Sister, listen to me..."

"Okay, okay, Xiaoxia, just say it. Practice it after you finish talking."

“No practice required!”

After rebutting Yu Qiu, Yu Xia told what happened just now. Raising the possibility that Bai Wenfeng was behind the scenes, Yu Xia waited for Yu Qiu's answer.

"It's hard to say... Let me ask Hua Yin. By the way, about tomorrow. Xiaoxia, are you going to go with me to pick out a gift for Hua Ling?"

Yu Xia typed Yu Xia's question into text and sent it to Hua Yin's mobile phone. Yu Qiu got the answer immediately without any anxiety, and she continued the topic to tomorrow's events.

"Um, yes. What's wrong?"

"Then let's not go out together, otherwise it will arouse Hua Ling's suspicion."

"That's right. Then let's go out front and back?"

"Yeah, let's wait at the subway station then. It's a pity that Xiao Zishi is coming too, otherwise it would feel like a date."

"Ah, um..."

Not daring to take up Yu Qiu's topic, Yu Xia blushed slightly and responded to her vaguely.

"I'll talk to you about your matter tomorrow. Be careful. Okay, it's getting late, and it's almost time for you to go to bed."

"Okay, good night sister."

"OK, good night."

After saying good night to Yu Qiu, Yu Xia left her room.

………

"Yu Yu, do you have time today? I have something to do and want to go out with you."

"Huh? Not today either... I have something to do... Hua Ling, what can I do for you?"

Hua Ling had already made an appointment with Yu Xia yesterday, but yesterday he and Zhuang Xueying wanted to order a cake. Hua Ling said it was not too important, so Yu Xia declined Hua Ling's invitation.

After putting on her outer coat, Hua Ling, who was sleeping on the upper bunk, looked at Yu Xia and extended her invitation to him again. Yu Xia showed a bitter and helpless smile, and expressed tactfully that he had something to do today.

"Oh~~ That's it! Just go and do your thing and don't worry about me."

After prolonging her voice, as if to express her dissatisfaction, Hua Ling turned around, covered her delicate body with a quilt, and ignored Yu Xia.

"Um...Hua Ling? What's the matter with you? If it's important, I can turn down my side of the matter."

"Hmph~~ My affairs are not important! Go and do your own business!"

Hua Ling responded to Yu Xia with a hum as if she was having trouble. Hua Ling's answer made Yu Xia look like she didn't know what to do.

"Well, um... Hua Ling? If you make an appointment with me tomorrow morning, I will definitely have time. Plus, how about buying you whatever you want to eat for a week? I really have something to do today."

In order to prevent Hua Ling from knowing that she was acting together with Yu Qiu and Chen Zishi, Yu Qiu, who decided to leave first, gave Yu Xia a thumbs up in the living room and slipped out of the house quietly.

Yu Xia also extended her thumb, and after responding to Yu Qiu, she turned her attention back to the awkward Hua Ling.

The husband, who was busy with work, coaxed his wife, who was upset because he could not accompany her on a date, and Yu Xia tried his best to restore Hua Ling's mood.

"This is what you said. Whatever I want to eat, you will buy it for me."

After removing the quilt covering her body, Hua Ling's red eyes shone with anticipation.

"Yeah, it's true."

"Then forget it this time. You have something to do, right? Just do it, and I'll sleep for a while."

"whee."

Urging Yu Xia to leave the room quickly and do her own thing, Hua Ling covered her whole body with the quilt again. Amused by Hua Ling's behavior, Yu Xia couldn't help but curve the corners of her mouth.

"Then I'll go first. Breakfast is already prepared. You can just get up and heat it up to eat."

"Uh-huh."

After filtering through the quilt, Hua Ling's slightly unclear farewell words reached Yu Xia's ears, and he put on his shoes and walked out of the house.

Yu Yu, what is he going to do? It seems that I have been hiding something from you in the past two days.

Sitting up from the bed, Hua Ling, who was sitting on the top bunk, had her feet dangling in the air. The buttons of her pajamas were fully open, and her destructive big breasts were half-covered and exposed to the air. She looked at the empty living room outside the door and gently played with her red hair.

Shouldn't he be staying with that female fox from Moroko? !

"Hua Ling's magic power is so weak~~ Roko is stronger. He can take care of weirdos and the like in two or three strikes."

"Really? Hehe, then leave Hua Ling alone from now on."

"Yeah! Okay!"

"Huh?! Want a one-way trip to Hell?! The legendary one!"

"Bang!"

Stimulated by her own fantasy, a beast-like roar sounded from Hua Ling's little mouth. The slender fist burst out with powerful force, and a painful sound came from the bed where it was hit.

The loose red hair was stained with anger and raised up. The upturned hair reminds people of the sharp angles of an evil spirit, and the bright red pupils are burning with anger.

"Calm down, calm down. Yu Yu is not suitable for this type of person, um, not this kind of person."

Hua Ling caressed her breasts with her hands, trying to calm down her thoughts by talking to herself.

This feeling...is really annoying...

After dispelling the disgusting association, Hua Ling fell sideways on the bed holding the pillow. Her childish face was buried in the pillow, showing a weak expression that Yu Xia had never seen before.

He is obviously my exclusive pet, but now he has made a contract with another devil... Yuyu is such an idiot!

Her thoughts were jumping, and Hua Ling unknowingly turned to blaming Yu Xia for signing the contract with Mo Luoke.

"Huh~~ It's not okay to go on like this... When Yu Yu comes back today, I will interrogate him where he went!"

Hua Ling took a soft breath and made a fist-pumping gesture as she jumped down from the upper bunk, no longer wondering about the things that made her irritated.
