Chapter 504 – Sister’s Concern
As expected of the boxing champions of the animal world. The kangaroo sent left hooks, right hooks, and upper hooks and it was hard for Xiong YaoYue to deal with.
I don’t know if she was influenced by the Tyson vs. Holyfield fight, but Xiong YaoYue’s eyes were both red, she went wild and opened her mouth trying to bite the kangaroo’s ear.
The kangaroo of course nimbly evaded it.
Xiong YaoYue refused to give up. Since boxing didn’t work, she pounced on the kangaroo and locked her hands around its neck.
That would only work when you’re fighting against another person! The kangaroo’s neck is long, so it wouldn’t be easy to choke its trachea, it’s not like we were taught a secret method to fight kangaroos in biology cla.s.s.
As expected, the kangaroo didn’t weaken its attack because of Xiong YaoYue’s choke. It kept throwing punches at Xiong YaoYue, it even used its tail as support and sent a flying kick.
Fortunately, Xiong YaoYue had a quick reaction and raised her knee to block the attack, but she also grimaced in pain and had to hop on one foot for a while, the kind of scene you would commonly see on “Tom and Jerry”.
The zookeeper, or perhaps the kangaroo keeper, called out, “Afu, stop attacking the visitors.”
The kangaroo named Afu was obviously in a rebellious period. It would have been better if the zookeeper didn’t say anything, as the kangaroo got more into it after he spoke.
I reached out to Xiong YaoYue through the railings, trying to pull her out.
“Stop messing around with the kangaroo. It’s animal cruelty if you win, and you’re worse than a beast if you lose.”
“No way.” Xiong YaoYue stubbornly shook her head, “I want to get Xiao Qin’s hat back.”
“A hat doesn’t cost much.” I shouted, “Come out and I’ll buy another hat for Xiao Qin.”
Xiong YaoYue dodged a punch from the kangaroo and remained stubborn, “I hate doing things halfway and I hate losing.”
“I’m begging you, please come out.”
The zookeeper who had prevented me and Peng TouSi from going over the railings, went in himself to settle the dispute between Xiong YaoYue and the kangaroo.
“Afu, look this way.”
The zookeeper pulled out two peanuts from his pocket and tried to attract the kangaroo’s attention.
Unexpectedly, the kangaroo was already fed by the visitors, and wasn’t interested in food, it was only thinking about beating up the visitor.
Xiong YaoYue looked around the kangaroo enclosure and suddenly had a bright idea. She began running in circles around the kangaroo enclosure.
Afu relentlessly pursued after Xiong YaoYue to finish the match and see who’s the victor.
The zookeeper was afraid the kangaroo would hurt someone, so he began to chase the kangaroo from behind. It was Xiong YaoYue at the front, followed by the kangaroo and the zookeeper running circles around the area.
Peng TouSi and I were just about to make our move when things took a new turn.
Xiong YaoYue, who tried to shake off Afu with all her might, ran towards the back of another male kangaroo who was leisurely eating gra.s.s. It had att.i.tude that didn’t care about the events that were occurring around it.
Xiong YaoYue curled up her index and middle fingers of her right hand and flicked the back of the male kangaroo’s head.
Does she want to die? She can’t even deal with a kangaroo child and now she’s provoking an adult kangaroo?
As it turns out, Xiong YaoYue was the type of person who performs better under stress.
You could say she’s quick witted or she acts without thinking, but in any case, after she flicked the adult kangaroo’s head, it turned around in anger. Xiong YaoYue had already run five or six steps away, it was the little kangaroo Afu that was the closest.
“You hit your own father?” The adult kangaroo hit Afu down with a smack from its tail.
By the way, I should add that kangaroos don’t speak Chinese, I was the one who dubbed in the dialogue above. Actually, I’m not even sure that the adult kangaroo was Afu’s dad.
“Da Gang, Afu, don’t fight, I’ll give these two peanuts to whoever stops first.”
The zookeeper’s powerless dissuasion couldn’t stop the two kangaroos from chipping at each other’s heads. Xiong YaoYue took this opportunity to take off Xiao Qin’s sun visor from the branch and leapt out of the enclosure quickly, moving nimbly like a panther, causing the onlookers to applaud and cheer.
Xiao Qin and Ai Mi were still arguing with each other, as they walked over together under the umbrella.
Xiong YaoYue didn’t really mind the scratch on her face and dirty clothes as she returned the sun visor to Xiao Qin and said:
“The hat didn’t even fall on the ground. I’m awesome, right?”
Despite Xiong YaoYue’s excellent self-recovery abilities and a body that doesn’t leave any scars, I couldn’t help but admire her optimism from the bottom of my heart when she was still able to have a simple-minded smile when she was injured.
Xiao Qin was also surprised that Xiong YaoYue did all that for her own hat, so she slightly lowered her head and thought before saying, “Yeah, you’re awesome, you were actually able to beat a kangaroo….”
“That’s right.” Xiong YaoYue flexed her biceps, “From now on you can call me Winnie, the ‘Kangaroo Terminator"”
Ai Mi, however, looked angry and shouted at Xiong YaoYue, “Who told you to pick up the violent girl’s hat? You belong to me and aren’t allowed to privately serve others.”
Xiong YaoYue felt a little bit guilty and she scratched the back of her head, “Miss Ai Mi, sorry, I acted on reflexes…”
“How many times do I have to tell you to don’t call me Miss.” Ai Mi snorted, then grabbed one of Xiong YaoYue’s hands and pulled her away.
Ai Mi couldn’t drag Xiong YaoYue at all with her strength, but Xiong YaoYue consciously followed her because she was worried about Ai Mi falling down.
“Peng TouSi, you come too.” Ai Mi ordered angrily.
“Because Peng TouSi always calls you Miss, I just followed along and it became a habit.” Xiong YaoYue tried to justify, “Besides, where are we going?”
“To the hospital for a full body checkup.”
“Eh, Ai Mi, are you sick?” This time Xiong YaoYue finally stopped adding “Miss”.
“You’re the one who’s sick.” Ai Mi roared as loud as she could, “Didn’t you know kangaroos can transmit rabies? Hurry up, we have to head to the biggest hospital or let my medical team give you a rabies shot.”
I thought Ai Mi would blame Xiong YaoYue for helping Xiao Qin, but it seems she was more concerned about Xiong YaoYue’s health. Although the possibility of kangaroos at a zoo carrying rabies is slim, it was good that my sister to was beginning to care about others.
But I must remind Ai Mi of one important thing.
“Hey, you’re going the wrong way. The exit is that way.”
Ai Mi blushed and turned in the direction I was pointing while holding Xiong YaoYue’s hand.
“Manservant, you talk too much. I was just going to check the road signs.”
Ai Mi, who was poor at directions, refused to admit her mistakes.
That day, Ai Mi brought Xiong YaoYue back to the VIP building and did a full examination on her with a variety of high-tech instruments. Of course, she didn’t forget to give her a rabies shot. Afterwards, Xiong YaoYue told me, she wore very little clothes while she was being inspected and felt really weird.
Originally, Xiong YaoYue intended to head home, but Ai Mi was worried that Xiong YaoYue would have a rabies attack and die, so she was forced to stay. Xiong YaoYue had to call Xiao Qin and ask her to lie to her parents again, and Xiao Qin did a good job this time too.
As I’ve said before, room 101 in the VIP building was a luxury residence with two suites. Ai Mi only uses one of them, the other identical room was reserved for guests, and Xiong YaoYue slept there on Friday night.
But Ai Mi became nervous all the time ever since Xiong YaoYue was scratched by a kangaroo and she didn’t feel comfortable letting Xiong YaoYue sleep in a room alone. She had to have Xiong YaoYue sleep in the same bed as her, so she would be the first to know if something happened to Xiong YaoYue.
Although Peng TouSi said it was unnecessary, Ai Mi was stubborn and wouldn’t listen to anyone, so the two of them slept together in Ai Mi’s princess bed.
Afterwards, Xiong YaoYue told me, “Ai Mi had a lot of stuffed bears on her bed, but in the middle of the night, she tossed the one in her arms off the bed and hugged me instead, as if I was her hug pillow.”
Apparently we both like to hug other people in our sleep? Fortunately, Ai Mi and Xiong YaoYue were both girls, so it wasn’t as awkward like it was between me and the cla.s.s leader.
“By the way, Ai Mi also talked in her sleep when she hugged me, she said ‘don’t die’ or something…”
Ai Mi is indeed very insecure, because both her grandfather and the sniper Vasya died. She felt that people close to her will die, so hugging Xiong YaoYue in her sleep was one of the ways for her to show concern.
When Xiong YaoYue told me about it on Monday, the scratches on her face had completely healed without leaving even a faint scar. It’s clear now that Ai Mi was worried over nothing.
“Haha, you’re cousin gets very touchy when she’s asleep.” Xiong YaoYue lowered her voice and said to me, “Not only did she sleep with her arms around me, but she also touched my b.r.e.a.s.t.s.”
She said to me while sticking out her chest as if I didn’t know what she was talking about.
“I thought I would be the only one losing out if I let her touch me, so I touched Ai Mi’s b.u.t.t. To be honest, it was smooth and it felt great”
Xiong YaoYue snorted hot air from her nostrils, as she made gripping actions with her hands with a face of excitement.
Don’t talk about Ai Mi’s b.u.t.t in front of me! You two are obviously the same s.e.x, but why was it way more flirtatious than when I slept with the cla.s.s leader? For us, it was only me who touched the cla.s.s leader, but you guys touched each other.
With a strange feeling, I called Shu Zhe out from cla.s.s 1-4 and told him I had another job for him.
“Blowing balloons again?” Shu Zhe looked disinterested, he always felt he earned too little from blowing balloons.
Hmph, I still haven’t made you blow condoms which will give you even more money, but I was going to give you a much more difficult than the previous ones. I want you to dress as a girl and pretend to be someone else’s girlfriend.
