CHAPTER 23: CHAPTER 23: DON’T TURN AROUND

Dajun led them into the alley, pointing to a brick house and whispering:

"That’s the house, see it? There’s a delicate girl sitting at the door, let’s walk quietly, don’t startle her."

Yu Xia looked left and right, feeling that the girl wasn’t exactly synonymous with delicate.

The person was blocking half the doorway, quite the horizontal view.

Following their lead, she lowered her steps and whispered, "May I ask if that girl is called Dazhuang?"

Wei Yaoyao covered her mouth, unable to suppress her laughter.

Dajun gave her an appreciative glance but shook her head no.

Yu Xia breathed a sigh of relief, but then heard her say, "Dazhuang is still too gentle. They were afraid the name couldn’t hold them down, so they gave her a more manly one."

This piqued Wei Yaoyao’s curiosity: "...What name?"

Dazhuang isn’t manly enough?

Dajun: "Gang Dan."

All three froze: "...?"

Dajun was delighted: "Manly enough, right? This was thought up by dozens of people in our Guawazi village!"

Yu Xia: ...Yes, it’s manly enough, almost too manly.

She couldn’t help it, leaning against the wall and crouching by the roadside, laughing till she shook like a willow branch.

"Sorry, I can’t hold it in, let me laugh for eight days and nights first, hahahaha!"

Xie Qingci couldn’t control the corners of his mouth either, lowering his head and laughing till his shoulders quivered. Wei Yaoyao was even more exaggerated, her laughter sent several birds overhead flying.

After enough laughter, Yu Xia wiped her tears, taking a deep breath, she stood up and gave Dajun a thumbs up: "That name is great, it exudes a strong masculine and domineering aura everywhere."

Dajun nodded with satisfaction, leading them further onward: "Everyone in our village thinks so. Shh, let’s get closer, keep quiet."

The "delicate maiden" at the door was sewing something, humming a song.

Dajun took a step forward, looking up at her admiringly as if seeing a beauty from a painting, and then called out softly, "Gang Dan~"

... The name sounded quite out of place, Yu Xia could barely hold back again.

The beauty Gang Dan heard the voice and slowly turned around.

Wei Yaoyao suddenly burst into a coughing fit, her hand on Xie Qingci’s arm trembling slightly.

Yu Xia’s lips trembled, stumbling a step back: "Absolute, absolute beauty."

Xie Qingci: "..."

The visual impact was so strong that all three felt like covering their heads to gouge out their eyes.

Xie Qingci gritted his teeth against the itch climbing up his throat, unable to resist asking the Gang Dan: "Is your hair and... nose hair growing inversely?"

The nose hair which could loop twice around the field, the hairline receding straight to the back of the head with the Mediterranean hairstyle, and the beguiling purple sausage-like lips, all told the unique story of this "delicate beauty."

Oh, and those eyelashes, not like fly legs, but like flies. You couldn’t come up with such robust flies without at least two pounds of fly spray.

It was terrifying enough to make his 5.2-rated eyesight ache and swell.

Just that one line, Yu Xia and Wei Yaoyao, stupefied by the "beauty," burst into laughter like a dam breaking.

"Hahahahaha, save me! My eyes are poisoned!"

"Gang Dan, have mercy, turn around!"

"Too terrifying, this nose hair is enough to give me nightmares! Gang Dan, don’t laugh!"

"Hahahahahahaha I can’t live anymore!"

Laughing in front of the camera, laughing online too.

[A well-chosen name, don’t ever name another one, you hear that Dajun Gang Dan, how can you overshadow Tiezhu’s fame]

[Such an elegant name, such a delicate figure, such... such exquisite looks / My mind is a mess.jpg]

[A beauty that would make gourd children cry and call for grandpa]

[Hahahaha my head is going to fly off! Is this Xie Qingci’s taste hahaha]

[Trembling hands of fear hahahaha, Wei Yaoyao will have trauma from now on]

[Gang Dan girl, don’t laugh, your nose hair is swaying in the wind, please turn around, don’t face the camera, I’m begging you]

[My hand trembling while sending this barrage, if the heart attack is stimulated, will the show group compensate]

[Mom! So scary! I need my brother to kiss me for three days and nights to recover!]

[Xie Qingci looks like he’s about to have a heart attack hahahaha]

The beauty was too shocking, Yu Xia laughed so much her headband dropped twice, laughed till she was out of breath, tearful, and sat slumped against the wall with Wei Yaoyao, not daring to take a step closer.

Xie Qingci was still standing, trying to pull the two up, but they were like they’d eaten soft bone powder, their legs weak from laughter, unable to be pulled up.

The Gang Dan girl couldn’t hold back her laughter, but at least had some npc-awareness, she pinched her own face to forcibly stop herself from laughing.

Then, she coyly tapped her poisoned sausage lips with a dainty finger: "Oh~ keep it down, being so happy to see me shouldn’t be this obvious, it’s embarrassing if others hear~"

The voice, with so many twists and turns, especially that "Oh," conveyed a bashfulness laced with something indescribable, as if ants were crawling all over someone.

Wei Yaoyao awkwardly chuckled: "Um, is your village... called Reverse Talk Village?"

Dajun in one swift motion cornered him against the wall.

"Good eye! This is Guawazi Prosperous Village!"

Wei Yaoyao leaned back as much as possible, with a "don’t touch my pure and icy body" demeanor.

Yu Xia and Xie Qingci watched on, not expecting Dajun to look at them the next second.

Specifically, looking at Xie Qingci.

"Our village is very affluent, Gang Dan’s family especially so, so you won’t have to worry about going hungry. How about it, the most beautiful person, the richest family, they’re enough for you, right?"

Xie Qingci: "...I think..."

"I think it’s great," Yu Xia said seriously, getting up, "Xie Zhiqing, you should just go for it. Maybe the village’s wifi is at Gang Dan’s place, you can infiltrate and find clues."

The righteous manner made Xie Qingci grind his teeth.

The Gang Dan girl listened to their words, looking at him with hope.

"Xie Zhiqing~" she looked once before bashfully lowering her head, "You probably want to, don’t you? Yesterday you were still saying in the woods to me... oh it’s mortifying!"

Xie Qingci closed his eyes, holding back, while Yu Xia prodded him from behind, speaking earnestly:

"No wonder, I’ve been saying why you disappeared for half an hour yesterday. Well, since you’re already like this, as an elder sister I can’t say much, but you can’t shirk responsibility, so..."

Before finishing, Xie Qingci pulled Wei Yaoyao over and placed him in front, saying, "Actually, what she said yesterday was she really likes the type Wei Yaoyao is, telling me not to dream on. After thinking about it, I agree, so I’ve decided to step aside. Wei Yaoyao, you win, go ahead."

Wei Yaoyao: "???"

The Gang Dan girl looked at Wei Yaoyao, barely saying, "Actually I quite like wool curls, my grandma does too, she even raised a sheep just to shear it for clothes."

Wei Yaoyao bolted away.

"My wool curls can’t be sheared!"
