Meow Meow Meow Chapter 182

The next day, on my way going to school I saw the white crow. It stopped on a pole and was staring at me. I looked at it uneasily and took Xiao Mao and tried to sneak past and quietly told him, "This crow is more vicious than a dog. I curse it to be caught by someone and cooked in hotpot." 

I didn't expect that the white crow understood what I said and suddenly flew down and ferociously pecked on me on the top of my head, I cried dad and mom and bolted and waved my hands around but could not hit it. I fled into an alley near the school, only then was it joyfully satisfied and strutted off and flew away leaving me covered in bruises.

Xiao Mao followed behind me but did not help me, and was only snickering.

I was very depressed, "Why does it keep pecking me? Is it magical?"

"Probably, maybe it is a crow demon and it heard you saying bad things about it and so could not let you go." Xiao Mao kept laughing until he couldn't even stand straight.

"Cut! I am 80% sure that this bird has a grudge against me. I don't believe that there are monsters in this world." I looked at him contemptuously and hurriedly walked into campus.

When I arrived in class, Xiao Yu rushed over to torture me. She pointed her finger at me and scolded me for hanging up on her yesterday and asked me to confess where I know the handsome guy from and whether or not he unexpectedly skipped the school beauty and fell for me.

Where do I know the handsome guy from? Have I ever seen him before?

Most of the students were curious about this and one or two of them disdainfully looked at me and said, "Who knows what she has done."

 I also wanted to know what I could have possibly done...because when I left school in the evening, Ao Yun was waiting for me at the entrance again.

This time, he was not wearing a brand-name suit, but was wearing a simple casual outfit and was leaning on the red wall by the entrance of the school, disregarding Old man Zhang who like a cute little girl was trying to speak up one moment and then going quiet the next, it seemed he was finding it hard to open his mouth to engage in a conversation with this person who kept staring at the entrance. The topic seemed to about a certain someone who is a great king, has been criticized by the school for causing a scandal.

 I suddenly felt the uneasiness of being watched by a ferocious beast, so I wanted to slip away from the side gate. I didn't expect Xiao Yu's big mouth to suddenly scream, "Miao Miao! Explain yourself, did you or did you not get confessed to by a handsome guy yesterday?!"

If you don't talk, will you die...I did not look back, but I already felt his gaze fall on me. So I had to stop and slowly turned around, "Hello...what a coincidence."

"As luck would have it, I am especially waiting for you." Ao Yun nodded goodbye to old man Zhang and came over. I was instantly on alert, suddenly the man raised a harmless earnest smile, "What about Xiao Mao? Today is his birthday. I promised to take him to dinner."

His words had just finished, when Xiao Mao's out of sorts voice came from behind, "Birthday? I didn't even remember that today's my birthday. Thank you uncle for reminding me. However, I don't accept any invitations that not of the highest quality fan-fish level."

"That is natural. We have known each other for so long, how can I still not know your temperament?" Ao Yun earnestly smiled. I thought that Just a moment ago it was my misconception that caused me to feel uneasy. Yesterday's confession must have also been an accident. I was ready to retreat quietly and not intrude on their birthday dinner, when he continued to extend an invitation to me, "Miao Miao, come along too, okay?"

"I...it's not convenient." Regarding this invitation, I was somewhat uncomfortable.

Ao Yun then very thoughtfully said, "It doesn't matter. The beauty next to you can also come as well, that way it will be more lively."

"Okay!" Xiao Yu, this person who has neglected her friend when smitten with a new love, swiftly agreed with no concern for her friend's safety. Her two eyes were ferociously staring at me, meaning if I don't go, she will fight me.
 
Honestly, I don't think that Ao Yun is a bad guy, it's just...bad people won't spend so much money trying to swindle an ordinary student.

So with Xiao Mao's tacit agreement and Xiao Yu's pulling, I walked out of the school with him today. Today he did not drive the eye-catching Ferrari of yesterday. Instead, it was replaced with a low-key gray Porsche and that was not as loud and we sat in very comfortable.

"When did you start liking riding cars? Xiao sitting in the front passenger seat asked, looking to the driver's side.

"No, I don't like it, I just think it's just convenient." Ao Yun held the steering wheel with slender beautiful fingers. He looked at the road ahead and gloomily said, "I hate traffic lights, it is nevertheless, still better to fly."

Is he suggesting that he has a helicopter...

 I watched as the high-rise buildings outside the window and quickly passed by and we arrived at a slighlty remote suburb and then stopped in front of a big house. There were two gorgeous lanterns hanging on the entrance of the house and a piece of wood hanging above the gates with the words, 'Four Seas' and next to it was another small wooden sign that said, 'Dragon manor.'

Two beautiful girls just like celebrities stepped forward to greet and bent low to greet. Then we were invited into the house. The buildings in the manor were all made of wood and even had small bridges built over a flowing river. There was a rocky gazebo that was arranged in an extremely elegant manner of the river. There were a lot of colorful fish swimming in the river, it did not seem like a restaurant at all.
 
We walked for about 5 minuted, then arrived at a flower reception. There was an ancient style table set, that was full of various kinds of fruits. String and flute instruments were being carried over by the wind, it was like as if we have been transported to the ancient times through time and space.

 Xiao Mao dragged a stool and quickly sat down and then ignored Ao Yun's existence and invited me and Xiao Yu over to sit like he was the host, "Ask for whatever you want to eat, he'll have it brought right away, no need to be polite."

Ao Yun smiled bitterly and nervously tried to take hold of the situation and turned to me and said, "Feel free to treat this place like your own home."

Xiao Mao looked up at him with a smirk, "this is your wish."

Ao Yun didn't say anything.

Soon, all kinds of rare seafood delicacies in the world were all brought in by well-trained waiters. I have a passion and an addiction to seafood. I found myself salivating uncontrollably and somehow managed to restrain myself and fixed my eyes on the huge crabs and lobsters, plus on the no-name large fish and my stomach shamefully grumbled. Xiao Mao quickly brought a large lobster and a large piece of the no-name fish to my front. Then he took another set for himself and started to pig out and as he did, he said, "No need to be polite....eat him to death...I haven't eaten fan fish for a long time...cheapskate..."

Seeing his lack of table manners, I was also rapidly moving my chopsticks, the fish was really delicious and it made me feel like it was not the first time I have eaten, it felt like I have eaten it a long time ago, when was that? I felt somewhat melancholic in my heart but I could not come up with an answer.

Xiao Yu's family has a lot of many and has traveled to many places. Now she was incessantly eating the crab and praised it on the side, "This is from Hokkaido in Japan, right? It's so fresh."

"Air transport." Ao Yun simply answered but his eyes kept peeking at me eating from time to time, seeming very happy and it made me feel very embarrassed.

After the meal, Ao Yun didn't mention anything about the confession. He drove us back to the city, Xiao Mao said that he had something to do, I don't know where he is going.

After I got down from the car, Xiao Yu stealthily pulled me, "I feel that that guy seems to be a bit fishy."

I nodded, "Oh, he's a pretty weird rich man."

"I don't think he has a reason to have fallen for you..." Xiao Yu knit her eyebrows and was puzzled, "You are my best friend, I don't want to say any bad things about you, but there's no reason for this handsome guy to have fallen in love with you at first sight. You're not a great beauty, besides sports, you don't have much of any other personal strengths...you don't like to go out."

I nodded again, "En, there's really no reason."

Xiao Yu looked very serious and earnestly looked at me, "You tell me, could it be...?"

"Could it be what?"

"Could it be that he does not fancy you at all, but isn't borrowing you to cross a bridge."

"What do you mean?"

"A lot of handsome men are gay, maybe he has a crush on Xiao Mao, so he's pretending to pursue you. Today there was also this arranged event to try to win favor by borrowing somebody else's property."

"No, it shouldn't be."

"Xiao Mao looks very handsome. The two people standing together seem very well matched...and they seem to have known each other since childhood and their relationship is very good. So, it may not necessarily be that kind of affair.

I listen to her analyze it like this and I had a sudden flash of insight and it all became clear and my mind focused on that thought and I look towards the sky and the more I thought about it, the more it seemed plausible.

When Xiao Mao came to play that night, I had wanted to ask about it several times but I felt that it would be rude to inquire into people's private affairs. So I nervously watched him the whole time until he said goodbye and went to his room to sleep. 

Alas...it turns out that this peach blossom is really not mine. Xiao Mao, it's up to you to clearly see the true heart of the other part, don't be fooled and deceived.
