Although she finished buying chips and cola, can she not find the checkout counter?
I understand getting lost on an unfamiliar road, but getting lost in a grocery store? How bad is your sense of direction! Can you find the stage when you go out to perform? Or are you saying that no matter the street or grocery store, the directions are all crystal clear in Arica? Even if it’s the sa Wal-mart, does it beco a maze after coming to China! You’re like a rat trapped in a maze, you’re going to die without any help!
I walked behind her and pretended to et her accidentally.
“Ai Mi, you’re lost again, right?”
“Your, your mom is...” (ED: she literally says your sister, but your mom insults are more common in the west) Ai Mi spoke halfway then changed to say: “You...walk in front of .”
I didn’t want to bicker, so I walked in front of her to lead the way. After walking for a while, her speed dramatically decreased. Her steps were originally small, I guess she tired herself out earlier when she was lost?
“I’ll help you push the cart.” I said as I grabbed the handles on her shopping cart.
She vigilantly shook, as if I was going to steal her chips and cola.
After thinking for a while she handed her shopping cart to and walked by my side.
I put my own basket in the cart and pushed the shopping cart effortlessly. I purposely slowed down to match Ai Mi’s pace.
It seems like Ai Mi noticed and spoke to in a softer tone.
“Can, can we go to the ‘back to school’ area first?”
“Sure, us celestial imperials are selfless model citizens.” I joked as I turned the shopping cart around.
Ai Mi put her hand behind her back and still had a skeptical gaze in her eyes.
“Umm, are you soone hired by Peng TouSi?”
“Who? I don’t know anyone with a surna of Peng.”
“Peng TouSi’s surna isn’t Peng” Xiao Mi had a sharp mouth like a small beast. “He’s my personal bodyguard, he’s tanned, buff and a lot taller than you!”
“Taller than Yao Ming?”
“No, not that tall...but he’s at least 2.05m. He was a consecutive champion in Russia’s death wrestling matches, and was nicknad ‘Black Grim Reaper’!”
Hey, hey, hey, it sounds like you’re saying this Peng TouSi is a 2m tall, berserk bloodthirsty black boxer! Is it fine to hire such a scary person to be the bodyguard of your 10-year-old daughter? Compared to these foods labeled as junk food, Peng TouSi, soone nicknad the grim reaper is clearly much more dangerous.
“Oh yeah, although he’s not as tall as Yao Ming, he’s killed soone before in an underground fight club!” Ai Mi flaunted in a lofty manner.
No matter what she doesn’t want to lose to anyone, even if she has to compare to a strange point. Are you in elentary school! I don’t give a damn if Peng TouSi has killed anyone before! Also, does it make him better than Yao Ming just because he’s killed before? You should know that the celestial empire is a land of martial arts, its the birthplace of Fist of the North Star. Who knows, maybe Yao Ming received a secret ‘Military Kill Fist’ from China’s council to protect himself in cri-ridden Arica. He just didn’t have a chance to use it! If he used it, he would definitely instantly vaporize his enemies with a flurry of fists.
“Hey, letting soone that dangerous be a bodyguard for her minor daughter, does your mom have a screw loose?”
“There’s nothing wrong with my mom’s head! She’s smarter than you!”
Director Cao also made a similar comnt before.
“I’ll tell you this, Peng SiTou pissed off the mafia when he snuck into Arica and was gunned down by a machine gun into a hornet’s nest. It was my mom who picked him up off the streets! In order to repay my mom, he’s even willing to rip out his own heart!”
How dangerous is Arica! Not only that, but being able to be saved after becoming a hornet’s nest, is this really “Arica is the number one in dical science”?
“My mom doesn’t trust people easily and of course she would take my safety into consideration. The only reason she assigned Peng SiTou to is that he’s gay, so he wouldn’t even think of touching !”
“It just sucks that he’s too loyal to my mom. I had to spend a lot of effort to sneak out and buy chips.”
It sounds like he’s very suited to be Ai Mi’s bodyguard. Though I really can’t picture how a 2m tall gay black man is able to compete in a death wrestling match, wiggling around in a sweaty ss.
“He’s not only gay, he’s a number 0!” Ai Mi got increasingly complacent after seeing I wasn’t saying anything.
“What does 0 an?” I couldn’t help but ask.
“It’s when they do it, he’s on the receiving end! The attacker is called 1, either way is 0.5. You don’t even know this, what are they teaching you here!”
It seems like you’re ridiculing the wrong side? What the hell is wrong with the Arican education system! Here, they’re bashful even talking about heterosexual love, they definitely won’t publicly talk about such high-level homosexual love!
After turning, because Ai Mi was walking on the outside she was left behind by and tried hard to catch up.
“Wait, wait for !”
I realized that I unconsciously started to walk faster, so I stopped and waited for her.
Because she was left behind by , she had an angry expression.
“Hey, if you’re not sent by my mom and you’re not hired by Peng TouSi, then who are you?”
“What’s your guess?”
“...Stalker, or maybe paparazzi!”
Do you still have that kind of impression even after I helped you so much! You still can’t tell good from bad? Do you believe I won’t kidnap you right now and call Peng TouSi for ransom money?
“Hey, is this the gay Peng SiTou? Your young master is in my hands, and if you don’t transfer money to my family’s online store, I’m going to kill her.”
If Ai Mi still suspects like that, I’m really going to make that kind of phone call!
Seeing my dissatisfied expression, Ai Mi supported her chin and made a thinking posture.
“If you’re not a stalker, paparazzi, or my mom’s lackey...does that an you’re really Lei Feng?”
Even the selfish Aricans know about Lei Feng? Comrade Lei Feng you can rest easy now.
“Um, although I’m not really interested, you should still tell your na.”
“No need, us Lei Feng don’t leave our nas when doing good deeds.”
“No way! You have to tell ! You already know my na!” Ai Mi relentlessly asked.
“Ok...I’m called Ye Lin, Ye from leaf, and Lin from QiLin.”
How do you write “QiLin”? Ai Mi said unhappily.
“If you have such a difficult na to write, it’s more troubleso for to rember!”
There’s a limit to how unreasonable you can be! It’s a Chinese na, why would I care if an Arican can write it or not!
After we reached the ‘back to school’ area, Ai Mi looked around and then took 4, 5 checkered books to practice handwriting, and unwillingly threw it into her cart. (TN: pages probably look sothing like this, used to practice writing)
“Don’t buy it if you don’t want to! It’s like heaven and earth compared to when you were buying chips! Why are you forcing yourself to practice writing?”
I felt guilty when asking, it’s probably too late for my crappy handwriting even if I started practicing now, right?
“I don’t want to either, but I have to!” Ai Mi moaned dejectedly.
“Mom said in order to beco more popular in the Asian market, I have to practice my penmanship and signature! I also have to mail her every week so that she can see if my penmanship improved or not!”
It was as if she was already tortured by her mom and she was almost going crazy. The more she spoke the more emotional she got, and she pointed to the cola in the cart.
“Other than chips, I’ve only been able to drink a sip of coke before! She always warned to stay away from junk food, saying things like I’ll lose my health and figure if I touch junk food...even though the other kids are eating it, I want to eat it too! So, during my 8th birthday, while my mom wasn’t paying attention, I took a bottle of coke from a neighboring kid and...”
“What happened?”
“I just drank a sip, then my mom discovered and slapped . The coke spilled all over !”
“That is kind of a pity.” the more I heard the more problematic Ai Mi’s mom’s style of raising a kid beca.
“Heng, even if that happened, I was still able to retrieve so by licking it off my clothes...”
Stop ntioning these types of past achievents! Is licking coke off of your clothes sothing to brag about!
“Anyways, my mom treats the worst! Since childhood, she forced to play piano, read literature, and didn’t allow to play with other kids... if I didn’t finish my howork she would hit my hand, she controlled my life 24/7...”
“Is it that exaggerated?”
“It’s worse than you can imagine! She also said stuff like nurturing to beco an international idol...”
“Idols are welcod, isn’t that good?”
I’ve never had the feeling of being welcod, so I was a little bit jealous.
“I don’t want it! It’s tiring and botherso to be an idol, if it wasn’t for my mom, I wouldn’t want to be an idol!” Ai Mi grabbed her hair tightly, it felt like she was becoming hysterical.
“I want to be a normal person! She can go be a superwoman herself! Wait and see! I’m definitely going to do sothing that will make my mom very angry... sothing that she will regret a lot.” Ai Mi gnashed her teeth as she swore in front of .
I saw that Ai Mi didn’t need anything else so I waited for her to calm down, then lead her out towards the exit. It seems like Ai Mi isn’t as nervous and paranoid after all that venting.
I suddenly had a thought, the mom who treated Ai Mi so inhumanely, isn’t that what the Aricans call the legendary “Tiger Mom”?
I was glad to have a father like that.
At least I was able to enjoy childhood as much as I wanted to.
Of course, if I wasn’t bullied by Little Tyrant, that would have been an even better childhood.
Let’s go to the checkout counter.
