Chapter 514 – Everything Has A Weakness
We left Peng TouSi to wait in the car as me, Ai Mi, and Xiong YaoYue rode the elevator to the eight floor and rang the doorbell to Gong CaiCai’s home.
After hearing a pleasant ring, Gong CaiCai personally came over to open the door.
“Sorry for the long wait...”
Halfway through her sentence, Gong CaiCai saw the doll-like Ai Mi and the conspicuous me behind Ai Mi and she froze for a moment.
Xiong YaoYue introduced her to Gong CaiCai: “This is my new good friend, isn’t she even cuter than you thought? I’ve wished you guys could meet for a while now.”
Ai Mi’s expression was cold as she tilted her head and casually swept a glance towards the interior.
“Ha, is this a commoner’s birthday party, it’s an unexpectedly shabby place.”
How is it shabby? It’s a 280m2 (approx 3000 sq ft) duplex condo with top grade decorations. The living room alone was 60m2 with a dazzling chandelier in the middle.
Are you using alien standards to judge this place as shabby? It’s really rude to say such harsh words to the birthday girl, so I have to find a way to apologize to Gong CaiCai.
I didn’t expect Gong CaiCai to apologize instead.
“I’m sorry, we could only do some simple decorations...”
Ai Mi gesture at me with her finger then pointed to Gong CaiCai. I didn’t understand what she meant and raised one eyebrow waiting for her to explain.
“How stupid, I wanted you to give out her birthday present. Otherwise, what’s the point of bringing a manservant.”
I then suddenly realized the bag Ai Mi asked me to bring out from the car was Gong CaiCai’s birthday present. Despite all the verbal nitpicking, Ai Mi still knew the basic etiquette for attending a birthday party. It might have been her first time meeting Gong CaiCai, but because she was Xiong YaoYue’s friend, she also had to carefully prepare a gift.
There was a rectangular crimson box. My first guess was it was some sort of jewelry.
When I took the box out and gave it to Gong CaiCai, she received it timidly and was embarrassed to say even the usual polite words. Xiong YaoYue stuck next to Gong CaiCai and whispered in her ear: Miss Ai Mi is Ye Lin’s distant cousin and her family doesn’t want her out alone, so they sent Ye Lin with her, I hope you don’t mind.”
Gong CaiCai nodded with an unknown meaning, then she expressed her gratitude to Ai Mi for the gift and invited her inside to rest on the sofa.
“Hey, you big breasted cow, do you not like my gift?”
Ai Mi crossed her arms in front of her chest and was very dissatisfied.
“B-big breasted cow...” Although people often called Gong CaiCai that behind her back, she didn’t know how to react when someone said it straight to her face.
Xiong YaoYue once again whispered in Gong CaiCai’s ear, “Miss Ai Mi is an American, and it’s an American custom to open a gift on the spot when you receive it then complement them. It would be even better if you say you really like the gift.”
“Thank you, thank you for, tis, this gift...” Gong CaiCai clumsily opened the gift and was a bit tognue-tied when she expressed her thanks.
“Don’t be afraid.” Xiong YaoYue encouraged Gong CaiCai, “Miss Ai Mi might seem mean, but she’s a very affectionate person. She was very worried about me after I was attacked by a kangaroo.”
“Who was worried about you?” Amy turned her face away to one side, “I just thought it would trouble me if you died of rabies.”
Gong CaiCai had opened the gift box, on the metal-trimmed black velvet pad, laid a magnificent rose gold watch.
The Omega logo was bery conspicuous and each hour on the watch had a diamond embedded on it. The face of the watch also had snowflake diamonds on it almost as if diamonds didn’t cost anything. The diamonds and the 18K rose gold made the watch shine.
Ever since Director Cao got a watch merchant as an investor, he often brings international watch promotional pamphlets to school, I also took a few as to use as pads... I think I saw this brand of women’s Omega watches before. I don’t know the exact model, but the cheapest in the series costs ¥47,000 and the most expensive one is ¥600,000. The rich really lives in a different world than us.
“Hey, it’s a nice watch. Cai Cai, try it on and see if it fits.”
Xiong YaoYue, who didn’t understand its worth, suggested.
Gong CaiCai, however, trembled, she might have seen her parents’ friends wearing thses expensive watches, and hastily declined, saying.
“It’s such an expensive gift, I... I can’t accept it, I appreciate your kindness...”
Ai Mi’s sapphire blue eyes immediately filled with killing intent.
“What, you actually don’t like it?”
“No...” Gong CaiCai felt pressured by Ai Mi despite being two years older, “It’s just that this gift is too expensive and I really can’t...”
“Don’t worry about if it’s expensive or not ,just say if you ‘like it’ or not.”
Being forced to choose one of two options, Gong CaiCai could only reply, “I like it....”
“Hm, since you like it, show me your appreciation.”
“Thank you for the gift, I like it very much...” Gong Cai Cai parroted as if she was being trained by a beast tamer.
Ai Mi waved her hands to tell Gong CaiCai to move to the side and she strided into the living room that was filled with ribbons and balloons.
“What should I do about this?” Gong CaiCai held up the expensive watch like it was a headache and didn’t know what to do with it.
“Anyway, put it away first.” Xiong YaoYue, who still didn’t know the real value of the watch, didn’t think the same way as Gong CaiCai.
Gong CaiCai’s living room was covered with light brown carpet, so it seems they were the same as Xiao Qin’s family and didn’t wear slippers. Ai Mi’s complexion changed right when her rainbow socks touched the carpet and she said in alarm: “There’s killing intent.”
Before she could evade, she was picked up from behind by the class leader who had just taken off her apron and rushed out of the kitchen. The class leader acted excited like she just saw the world’s cutest animal.
“Let me pat your head, just once. Just once is enough.”
Ai Mi shouted at me to help after she was captured by the hunter, but it was a rare oppotunity to see the class leader’s infatuated expression. Ai Mi, please sacrifice yourself a bit for your brother.
“Why is Katyusha here?” Ai Mi yelled furiously at Xiong YaoYue, “Why didn’t you tell me beforehand?”
“Huh, is this Ye Lin’s distant cousin that Winnie talked about?”
Loud Mouth and Little Smart also came out of the kitchen one after another. The formed a circle with the class leader and surrounded Ai Mi.
“What a cute mixed child. She looks nothing like Ye Lin, exactly how ‘distant’ are they?”
“Who’s related to the manservant.” Ai Mi was hugged by the class leader and forcibly had her face rubbed without being able to escape, “The manservant is my subordinate, I picked him up off the streets. Commoners like you are not allowed to touch me, manservant, get rid of them.”
I shrugged my shoulders and spread my hands to use a common American gesture to show that my hands were tied.
It’s wasn’t easy to have an opportunity to mingle with ordinary girls, so I should my sister get familiar with normal human interaction.
As this point, it was like the class leader just realized I was also a guest at Gong CaiCai’s birthday party.
She gave me a look as if to warn me not to interfere with the happy interaction between her and Ai Mi.
How is Ai Mi happy, the only one happy is yourself! Now that I think about it, cats who are caught by cat lovers and petted all over may not feel happy either. Ai Mi had the same expression a cat would make in the same situation.
And Ai Mi was unable to resist at all. Ai Mi only had 0.5 times of Gong CaiCai power, but the class president had 3.5 times Gong CaiCai’s power, which meant she was a whole 7 times stronger than Ai Mi.
Little Smart, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly looked at Ai Mi and said, “I had a blonde Barbie doll when I was a child and it really looked quite similar to her...”
The class leader’s eyes suddenly dazzled, “Didn’t we just see a lot of Cai Cai’s childhood clothes when we were in her room that were all well-preserved, why don’t we...”
When she set her gaze back on Ai Mi, Ai Mi had a look of despair like she was a deer caught in a hunter’s trap.
Loud Mouth suddenly understood and clapped her hands, “class leader, all girls dreamed of dressing a real doll as a child. Today, we have a chance to make it a reality...”
“NO~~~~~~~~~~”
They ignored Ai Mi’s cry and led by the class leader, the three girls dragged Ai Mi into Gong CaiCai’s room and locked the door.
Before the door was closed, Ai Mi stared at me with frightened eyes, as if asking why I didn’t save her... but it wasn’t good to disturb the class leader who rarely acts wild. And Ai Mi has always been too arrogant, so occasionally being “bullied” would be beneficial to her growth, right?
Then I could hear the cheerful discussion of the girls coming from inside the room.
“This pair of denim overalls is also cute...”
“Then lets try this white princess dress, but her rainbow socks are a bit out of place. Class leader, you hold her down from behind, and let’s take off the rainbow socks first...”
“Stop, stop, you barbarians, who said you were allowed to take off my clothes? I’m already an adult, I’m not wearing children’s clothes. I’m not going to wear children’s clothes, do you hear me?”
“What does it matter, we’re all girls. But your underwear is so mature, the class leader doesn’t even wear this mature underwear...”
“Bastards, how dare you humiliate me. Just you wait, I’m going to have Peng TouSi kill you all, and kill the manservant who neglected his duties. Winnie, Winnie, hurry up and save me!”
“Ah, the door’s locked, I can’t get in.” Xiong YaoYue pretended to knock on the door, then looked back at me with a smile and whispered, “Actually, I want to go in and have some fun too. Even the class leader is having so much fun, I’m also itching to have some fun.”
