Chapter 254: That's All For This Chapter! See You on the Next One!
The Daniel Wu of Peony Street – this is the very nickname jokingly given to Lu Yibei by his neighbours when she was still running about the old streets wearing open-crotched pants as an infant. During her time of boyhood, she was, indeed, adorable – with red lips, radiant teeth, and a chubby face. Compared to normal babies, he would be considered a high-quality, male-infant model.
Pity that her face would later become disabled.
She is, by no means, unattractive. In fact, both of her forms are higher than average. However, nobody has jokingly called her that very nickname for the longest time, and she guesses that her once-doting neighbours have forgotten that name too.
Therefore, when she heard Jiangli utter the nickname that even she had almost forgotten, she could hear sirens blaring inside her head.
I’m gagged. Did she do a background check on me? If I let her, something bad might happen sooner or later!
M-maybe, after she gets what she wants from completing the investigation, she will personally deal with me, and…
Her thoughts were uneasy as she shook her head, deciding to muddy the waters by saying, “The Daniel Who of Peony Street? I have never heard of anything like that in my life! It’s just a nickname, and I bet there’s many other nicknames like that in the Super Secret Underground Club – let me think… ah! The Cai Xukun of Changshou Road, or the Chris Evans of Tuanjie Village, or the Shun Ogori of Frog Town… ”
“Are you interested in meeting them?” she continued to yap on. “Tell them my name and they’ll give you a couple bucks off your drinks!”
“…No,” Jiangli sighed after a moment. “I know what they are like, and I am not interested.”
