*Bang!*
As he heard his bedroom door slam open, using all his will, he put a casual smile on his face to hide the pain he was feeling a moment ago, and slowly got out of bed.
Standing at the entrance to his room, Xie Yao was looking at him with a worried expression. However, when she saw Xie Feng’s face correctly, the worry on her face turned to incredulity, and she stared at him with her mouth slightly open.
“Yaoyao, is something wrong?” Xie Feng asked with a slight frown. Seeing Xie Yao looking at him like that, somehow he felt that something was wrong, so the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
“Big brother Xie Feng… Are you okay…?”. Xie Yao only spoke after hearing Xie Feng’s voice and breathing a slight sigh of relief. Even then, her eyes and voice clearly expressed the confusion she felt.
Hearing Xie Yao’s strange question, Xie Feng thought she had noticed something, but after looking at her better, he noticed that Xie Yao did not even seem to notice the objects on the floor. Her gaze was fixed on his face, apparently unable to turn away.
With a clearly confused tone of voice, he asked: “I’m fine… Yaoyao, I have something on my face?”.
Xie Yao shook her head. She took Xie Feng’s hand and wanted to drag him into the bathroom, but that’s when she noticed that his body was soaked in sweat. She looked at the untidy bed, the almost completely torn sheets, the clear teeth marks on the pillow and the objects scattered on the floor.
She avoided looking at Xie Feng and looked away. Her beautiful eyes were flooded with tears, but she bit her lower lip hard and closed her eyes for a moment. Then, without saying anything about what she had just seen, she silently dragged Xie Feng into the bathroom, as he had no mirror in his room.
Seeing Xie Yao act this way, Xie Feng could not help but sigh inwardly.
‘This girl…’
Xie Yao clearly realized everything, but to avoid making things more difficult for him, she avoided asking questions and did her best to contain the pain that her heart felt.
Without saying anything, Xie Feng threw her gently into his arms and kissed her on the forehead.
When she felt his hug, Xie Yao finally couldn’t hold back her tears and began to cry in silence. Except for the slight sound of a young woman crying, the room was silent with two people hugging and comforting each other.
Ten minutes passed before Xie Yao’s crying stopped.
When he finally lifted her face, Xie Feng gently caressed her cheeks, and to try to lighten the heavy mood a little, he joked: “Do you want to become a panda?”.
He took a picture of her with his cell phone and showed it to her.
Although Xie Yao doesn’t need to wear makeup at all. But girls, as beautiful as they may be, always try to look even more beautiful. This is especially true for Xie Yao since she lives next to Xie Feng, so she wants to be beautiful for him. Therefore, she always wears a little makeup to emphasize her innate beauty even more.
Because she was crying for so long, the makeup in her eyes made her look like a panda teddy bear. Along with her pitiful appearance, she really looked extremely adorable at this moment.
When Xie Yao saw her current appearance, she blushed slightly and tried to take her cell phone away from Xie Feng.
Xie Feng quickly took the cell phone away from her, and with a playful chuckle said, “You can forget about that, Miss Xie. This picture will be my precious treasure from now on”.
To prove that his words were no joke, Xie Feng put the picture he had just taken of her as his wallpaper. He looked at her with a smile and waved his cell phone as he showed her what he had done: “The young miss of the Xie family is really nice. She is even willing to pretend to be a panda teddy bear for me… I wonder how she knew that I like pandas…”.
“You…you… Give it back to me!”. Suddenly, Xie Yao jumped on Xie Feng like an angry tigress.
Xie Feng clearly did not expect her to do this, so he lost his balance and fell on the bed again.
When Xie Feng saw Xie Yao on him, stretching out her hands to take away his cell phone so that she could delete the picture, Xie Feng began to scream: “Help! A panda woman is attacking me!”
As if responding to his call for help, a person ran into the room and jumped on the bed. Now, two people were lying on Xie Feng’s body.
“Animal Control at your service, let me help you capture the wild panda”.
Xie Feng and Xie Yao looked at the new member in astonishment. But before they could think too much, Gu Qianxue started tickling Xie Feng, making him unable to help but start laughing.
Amidst the laughter, he protested: “Hahaha! You…haha… traitor! Clearly you said you were animal control but you are helping the panda!”.
As if she had forgotten what happened before, as if her tears were a lie, Xie Yao joined Gu Qianxue and started tickling Xie Feng.
The room that a few moments ago was impregnated by an aura of sadness and loneliness, now radiated light and joy. Only the laughter of three people was heard for a long time.
***
Before leaving Xie Feng’s room, Xie Yao gave him one last glance and with a slight blush on her face, she said, “Big brother Xie Feng, you’d better see your present appearance for yourself in a mirror”.
“Xie Feng, hurry up and get down the stairs! Tonight, due to the strong request of many fans, Shen Xinya will sing a small fragment of her song called Love of God!”. Said Gu Qianxue with a happy smile.
After saying that, she and Gu Qianxue went downstairs and began to finish the preparations for dinner.
When Xie Feng saw the two ladies leave his room, the happy smile on his face disappeared and he breathed a sigh of relief.
What Xie Feng wants least in this world is to worry Xie Yao. Therefore, no matter what means he has to use, he will always make sure that the tears on her face are like a passing rain before the arrival of a beautiful rainbow on a sunny day.
He stood up and went to the bathroom in his room. However, when Xie Feng looked in the mirror, his first reaction was a normal expression.
The next second, he frowned and moved his hand over the surface of the mirror. Soon, his whole body shook and his eyes opened wide.
“What is this all about!!”. A scream that could probably be heard by the neighbors came from Xie Feng’s mouth as he stared at the mirror.
Xie Feng’s look was always approximately 6/10. However, in the last few days, he noticed that his look seemed to improve little by little, so that 6 was updated to a 7.
The problem is his actual look. If before, his physical look was improving so gradually that the change was barely noticeable, then the current change is simply too much to be described in words.
Xie Feng was sure that no one, not even those Koreans with fake, operated faces, could compare to how handsome he looked right now. He never saw a man who exceeded his current aspect… No, there was one.
His look in Samsara Online.
Xie Feng’s look in Samsara Online changed due to the Ring of the God of Destruction. It was a divine appearance, it definitely surpassed all human sense and could no longer be described in words as beautiful, handsome, or hot. There were no words to describe it.
Suddenly, Xie Feng’s eyes shook fiercely when he realized something that he had previously ignored. But now that he thinks carefully and puts some pieces together, he finally couldn’t help but think about it… A thought completely unreasonable and meaningless to anyone else.
‘My physical aspect started to improve quickly after I started playing Samsara Online… Even before I could step outside the Beginner’s Village, a forbidden item, the Ring of the God of Destruction, chose me as its holder… Before, I had not paid much attention to it, but now that I think about it, my look was slowly but surely approaching my aspect in the virtual world… The change in my aspect actually was a big jump, coincidentally today, the Pearl of Light chose me as its holder’.
Xie Feng’s eyes narrowed and, instead of continuing to think internally, he murmured in a low voice:
“A God, 7 pearls, and my present aspect… What the hell is going on here… What’s going on with Samsara Online… “.
The threads of destiny finally began to move into an unknown future.
