Chapter 207: The Eating Demon, He’s So Mean
“Stop, stop! Dragon Brother, just punch me to d*ath already! I really can’t eat another bite,” Li Qing Xue gently rubbed her bloated little belly, her cute nose wrinkling as if she were about to cry.
She never imagined that there would be a day when she would feel so wronged because of eating.
This guy is basically a food devil—insisting she keeps eating…
Seeing this, Dragon Brother confirmed they had truly eaten their fill.
Without a second thought, he swept the pot bottom into his hands.
Watching this scene, Hu Yu Ying and Lin Wan Ning discreetly gave Li Qing Xue a thumbs-up.
Life in Kyoto is all about the fast lane.
Passersby come and go in a blur, each moving briskly without a word.
The night view of Kyoto is undeniably stunning. Amidst such beauty, all kinds of pedestrians sprinkle the scene, adding an indescribable busy-chatter atmosphere to the city.
“Wow, there are still so many people,” Lin Wan Ning whispered as she looked at the crowd gathered around the Film Academy. “Dreams are really such a fleeting thing—unseen, intangible, yet countless people flock to them.”
Maybe it was luck.
A van slowly stopped nearby, and a person wearing a baseball cap got out.
From a distance, they didn’t catch what was said, but they could see numerous hands raised eagerly, each person pointing and waving.
Those pointed at grinned brightly, full of hope.
Those not picked looked a little forlorn.
This was the normalcy of life, so Dragon Brother felt truly happy.
Once, he was just one of the crowd — struggling, fighting to survive.
“I really want to experience being an extra someday,” Li Qing Xue whispered.
“With your looks? You’ll never survive even one episode in ancient dramas,” Dragon Brother chimed in.
“No way! With my looks and IQ, I’ll at least make it to the big finale!” Li Qing Xue retorted, a bit disagreeably.
“Take us with you if you do!” Li Qing Xue tilted her head and winked at Dragon Brother.
Her lively nature made her always dream of the unknown with bright eyes and eager anticipation.
Actually, without realizing it, the three little ones already saw Dragon Brother as their anchor in this strange city.
“Do you want to go?” Dragon Brother turned to Hu Yu Ying and Lin Wan Ning.
“I’m fine with anything,” Lin Wan Ning said.
“Can we see stars too?” Hu Yu Ying asked.
“Probably,” Dragon Brother replied, a little unsure. In his previous world, he worked many jobs but had never been an extra.
“It’s definitely possible,” Li Qing Xue said confidently, crossing her arms.
Seeing Li Qing Xue’s puffed-up little belly, Dragon Brother lightly poked her like a balloon being clipped—click.
“Dragon Brother, if you dare tease me again, I’ll fight you to the end!”
Her belly was already full and now he’s poking it again? Auntie and Uncles might tolerate it, but Li Qing Xue had reached her limit!
She tried to grab Dragon Brother, but he was too quick.
After eating so much, Li Qing Xue couldn’t reach him, and immediately turned to protest: “Yu Ying, look at Dragon Brother.”
Hu Yu Ying smiled gently as she looked at Dragon Brother, then softly tugged Li Qing Xue’s little hand and whispered, “Don’t fuss with Brother Long—he’s mischievous.”
Li Qing Xue puffed up her cheeks and made a nose-pinch gesture at Dragon Brother, then suddenly noticed that Hu Yu Ying and Lin Wan Ning’s small bellies weren’t puffed up at all.
“Why don’t your little bellies stick out?”
Hu Yu Ying has a slim waist and didn’t eat much, so it wasn’t obvious.
Lin Wan Ning is also naturally slender—just tucking her tummy a bit hides everything.
Only Li Qing Xue has a bit of meat—being plush isn’t fat, quite the opposite, among the three, Li Qing Xue’s proportions are the most perfect.
Round, soft, a little too much is bad, a little too little is also not good—everything is just right.
Realizing only her belly was a little rounded, Li Qing Xue quickly turned around, took a deep breath, lowered her head to look at her now-flat belly, and then turned happily.
“Not tired?” Dragon Brother asked with a smile as he glanced.
“How would I know? For beauty, I can go all day without tiring,” Li Qing Xue snorted proudly.
“Impressive,” Dragon Brother gave a thumbs-up. “But shouldn’t you relax a bit?”
“Relaxing would be great,” Li Qing Xue said, glancing at Hu Yu Ying and Lin Wan Ning’s small bellies with sparkling eyes. “But I still want to look pretty.”
“Don’t worry about others’ eyes—what you are is what you are,” he said smilingly. “Relax, you’re most beautiful when you’re lively.”
He remembered that last time they met, Li Qing Xue had said she felt unwell and needed comforting. No time then. Might as well say a few words now.
At this age…
Not just girls—boys at this age also do invisible comparisons.
They want to hide their flaws, make their imperfectness seem perfect through concealment.
Just like Li Qing Xue said earlier: “I feel bad, but I’m so beautiful. For beauty, I can be tired all day.”
It’s not wrong that she feels this way because it’s meaningful to her. So she does it.
Dragon Brother wanted to tell her that outside world is full of countless sounds—no one can escape that.
But please, don’t bully【yourself】along with others.
“Life has different stages. When we’re born as infants, we’re adorable; as we grow, mischievous; then beautiful, elegant, graceful, poised—until old age and decline.”
Dear, there’s more after this chapter—click next to keep reading, it gets even more exciting!
“Each phase gives us a different experience. We can’t resist time, so there’s no need to care too much about others’ opinions. Doing so might cause that perfect you to lose your way.”
Dragon Brother gently patted Li Qing Xue’s shoulder. “What I want to say is: Be strong, become better, don’t be just the you others see.”
“There’s a saying: It’s hard for one to please a hundred people, and equally hard for a hundred people to understand one.”
“No one’s life is perfect—poor folks have their worries; rich folks have theirs. Everyone’s life is a mess—nothing is ever flawless.”
“But we mustn’t be unhappy. So now, Miss Li Qing Xue, please cheer up, okay?”
Hu Yu Ying and Lin Wan Ning nodded in agreement.
Honestly, sometimes they envy Li Qing Xue’s personality; she always seems to see the world as beautiful when she smiles.
Plus, her proportions are truly perfect—she’s seen and can confidently say so.
While she wanted to change, they couldn’t help but secretly admire her.
Li Qing Xue’s lips parted slightly, a tiny show of pride: “Say that again?”
Dragon Brother rolled his eyes, about to poke her forehead but sighed and said, “So, can Miss Li Qing Xue now let go of her constraints and just be happy?”
“Fine then,” Li Qing Xue felt secretly delighted, no longer hiding her little belly, relaxed—her whole body seemed lighter.
Not making things difficult for herself, she felt much more breezy.
Turns out, no matter how long ago it was, she still loved hearing Dragon Brother’s words of guidance—like lying on the bay, by the riverside, sunlight, grass, flowing water, and a gentle breeze at all times…
