Chapter 1918: Fat Bear, Don’t Be Foolish
Fat Bear hesitated for a moment: "I was afraid she’d go home and complain, so I gave her one hundred yuan."
"This guy still has hope."
"Yes, you still have hope! So, is your neighbor girl cute now?"
"Is there any chance to trick her into coming home?"
"Haha, yeah, the neighbor girl grows up just to be a daughter-in-law!"
Fat Bear: "Let me show you guys a photo."
"You even have a photo!"
"You actually have a photo!"
"The point is, you guys are still in touch! Didn’t see this coming, with your bear-like look, you actually have a girl!"
"You hide it pretty well usually!"
"So many years of friendship, and you kept it tight enough!"
"Well, take a look first." Fat Bear, feeling defeated, showed the photo.
The buddies fell silent.
"Well, actually it’s quite fitting."
"Yeah, it’s quite fitting!"
"Fat Bear, you should be content with your life. Having a girl is already great, and you’re still picky!"
"Such a good girl, childhood sweethearts, where else would you find one?"
"Chubby girls have potential. After losing weight, they’ll all turn into long-legged, Great Beauties!"
"A good childhood foundation, a bit chubby, helps to grow taller. Once she grows up and looks good, she’ll become a Great Beauty!"
"How old is she?"
Fat Bear: "Fifteen."
"That’s the growing age; she’ll definitely slim down in the future!"
"By eighteen or nineteen, she will definitely slim down!"
"Fat Bear, you’d better start pursuing her early; it’ll be a pity if you miss your chance!"
Fat Bear: "She’s only fifteen, already 250 pounds, fifty pounds heavier than me!!!"
"That means you two look like a couple; you see, you’re both chubby and fair-skinned types."
"Right, right, you two look like a couple!" A group of buddies jeered.
Fat Bear, annoyed: "I’ll wait until she slims down to pursue her."
"Don’t! Then you’d be the classic case of loving wealth and despising poverty. Haven’t you seen those TV dramas? Once those girls become Great Beauties, they’ll shout: ’You ignored me before, now you can’t reach me!’"
"Hahaha, right, right!"
"Fat Bear, you must treasure her!"
"Confess now!"
"Strike while the iron is hot, quickly take out your phone and write a text!"
"If you don’t know how to write a confession text, let me do it, I’m the best at it!"
Fat Bear’s mouth twitched: "That’s enough, you guys."
"Hahaha..."
A group of buddies burst into laughter, some even sat on the ground laughing, unable to stand.
Little Taotie looked at them, puzzled and dazed, vaguely hearing them talking about something, but not quite understanding.
She looked at Hua Jinyan, confused: "They seem really happy, what are they laughing about?"
Hua Jinyan handed her a chicken wing, "Ignore them."
Little Taotie started gnawing on the chicken wing.
Hua Jinyan watched Little Taotie eat happily, with a slight smile, eyes full of affection.
A roast chicken, Hua Jinyan only ate the claws and tips, giving the rest to Little Taotie.
Fat Bear watched from afar, mouth twitching, and muttered: "If I end up with the neighbor girl, I’d end up this pitiful too, with not even a bite of meat from a chicken, just skin and bones, how tragic! No way, no way, I’d rather die than pursue the neighbor girl!"
"What are you mumbling about?"
"Nothing, nothing."
"Hand over your phone."
"Why?"
"To send a confession text for you!"
"No, I’d rather die than do that!" Fat Bear faced it as if facing certain death.
"What’s up? Fat Bear, don’t be stupid, if you miss this chance, you’ll regret it!"
"Once you get to college, who knows how many people will pursue your neighbor girl, by then some college student might swipe her away!"
