Childhood sweethearts. This was a term that was filled with positive concepts such as beauty, purity, and innocence.
In traditional novels, manga, and movies, childhood sweethearts were often the prelude to lovers finally getting married. In fact, it had even become an unwritten rule in story creation.
In that generation, if a childhood sweetheart of the same age appeared by a main character's side, that would basically be the main character's number one female character.
In the television dramas and manga of that generation, no matter how many temptations or obstacles there were, the childhood sweethearts would always win in the end. It was only later in the generation of heaven-sent stories that the suspense was finally broken … and then, all the childhood sweethearts would lose, while the heaven-sent story would win. Damn it, could you not go to such extremes and leave the readers with some suspense?
Cough, I'm getting off topic. There would always be such a difference between reality and a story creation.
"What? A fairytale where childhood sweethearts become lovers? Don't be silly. First of all, children will separate from boys and girls as soon as they have the slightest awareness of gender. Most of the playmates of toe-scratching men will also be toe-scratching men. At most, they'll be cute boys … Fine, I know that's even scarier. "
"Even if your childhood sweetheart really is of the opposite sex, and both her appearance and personality are above average, will you really fall in love with someone who knows about your dark history of wetting your bed when you were five years old, your failed first love when you were seven years old, and your drooling, grinding teeth, and farting in class? Will you really be so close to her that you touch her hand every day?"
This was Rorschach's understanding of childhood sweethearts.
It wasn't impossible for childhood sweethearts to maintain their friendship until they reached adulthood and became lovers. But, this probability … Perhaps this was the reason why such stories were so popular back in the day. What you couldn't have would always be what you wanted the most.
Just like how the heaven-sent story became so popular. Perhaps it was because otakus always hoped for a gentle girl who didn't care about money or appearance, and would only look at you attentively, as pure and beautiful as a child's fairytale. Actually, it was the same for females. After all, the most popular characters were all domineering CEOs … Did I accidentally say something wrong again?
Cough, cough. When they were young, Su Nanna and Rorschach were the most common type of childhood sweetheart. They were familiar with each other and chatted with each other, but they were barely even friends.
Su Nana's deskmate in elementary school, first year of middle school, second year of middle school, and second year of middle school … Due to Hua Li's absence record, Su Nana had to repeat a year of middle school. First year of middle school was probably her greatest dark history. Whenever Roxia met Su Nana by chance, he would often joke about this.
. as they were in elementary school, Rorschach......... and... and they were no longer in the same class............................... as.......
"Since it's not a coincidence, can you explain why you're here?"
Roxia deliberately maintained a smile, but his heart was filled with unease.
........................................................ . that would be far too foolish.
From the moment he saw Su Nanna, he wasn't surprised at all. Instead, dozens of conspiracy theories popped up in his mind. It was already quite rare for him to be able to hold himself back from asking her.
"Tsk, you've improved. I thought that you would ask me on the first day."
The brighter Rorschach's smile was, the more uneasy Rorschach felt.
That was because they had been deskmates when they were young. Rorschach had a good understanding of Su Nanna's awkward personality.
From a certain point of view, her awkward personality was the other way around.
If she was expressionlessly minding her own business, it wasn't that she was in a bad mood. That was just her normal behavior.
Her expression was gloomy and melancholy, but she was in a good mood. She was probably watching a good horror or melancholy movie. It was fine for her to joke around a little. Normally, it was impossible to see her smile … If she smiled at you, it meant that she was angry at you. If she smiled sweetly, it meant that she was angry at you. But now, her smile …
"… It seems that I need a life insurance policy."
But to Rorschach's surprise, Su Nanna actually suppressed her anger and didn't attack him.
"My father owed your family a favor, so he made me your bodyguard. In the end, my life was messed up by you and your siblings …"
Rorschach finally understood the source of Su Nanna's anger after hearing her intermittent answer while suppressing her anger.
In a way, Rorschach's complaint wasn't wrong. Rorschach's life was indeed messed up by her siblings.
"At first, it was only because my parents owed your family a favor that they wanted me to pay more attention to your safety at school …"
Originally, Su Nanna could accept being a voluntary bodyguard. She would only need to pay more attention to new faces at school, and it wouldn't affect her personal life.
But three years ago, when Lori went to Aishi from Earth, in order to get used to the environment and be safe, her father also brought Su Nanna with him … Half a year later, when Lori had completely gotten used to the environment, Su Nanna successfully returned, but … she had to repeat a grade.
It wasn't just that she was absent. The main reason was that she had just entered junior high in the first half of the first year of junior high. Every subject was the time for her to build her foundation, and every subject was the most important first textbook.
After missing half a year, she couldn't keep up at all. After being an underachiever for a month, Su Nanna helplessly chose to repeat her year.
She was probably the only junior high student in the entire school to repeat a grade because she couldn't keep up.
During that period of time, Rorschach made many sarcastic remarks. At the time, Su Nanna's eyes were green with envy when she saw Rorschach, and she almost pounced on him and bit him.
And then, she repeated her year and caught up again. Su Nanna's life was back on track … and Rorschach was going to go to Aishi again.
At the time, Su Nanna's father found Su Nanna while she was still in school.
Su Nanna's father: "… Daughter, Rorschach is going to Aishi as well. You know what I mean."
Su Nanna: "… The hell do I know! I don't have such a bastard father like you! Are you intending to make your daughter stay in junior high for five years!? "
She wasn't wrong to complain. If Su Nanna really went to Aishi and then came back, she would have to stay in junior high for five years. That would be nothing more than a dark history. In this day and age, if she stayed in junior high for five years, she would have long been promoted to a fifth-year middle school student … or rather, a legendary middle school student.
Su Nanna's father felt a little embarrassed. It was rare for him to trick his daughter like this. And so, he looked up at the sky 45 degrees and hesitated.
"Actually, you could have finished junior high in Aishi before coming back."
Was there a difference? Su Nanna immediately went berserk.
"… Does Earth recognize my education? Can the things taught there be employed on Earth? It seems that not only do you want me to stay in junior high, you also want me to not even finish junior high! No, that damned planet doesn't even have a junior high! Do you want me to be an old freeloader? "
No matter what, Su Nanna still came back after a friendly father-daughter exchange (catfight). However, her resentment and malice had already leaked out.
After learning the ins and outs of the matter, Roxia opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. So, he was the main culprit? So, it was his younger sister who tricked her into repeating a grade? No wonder she looked at him so "harmoniously" when they met. He even teased her by repeating a grade. He was simply courting death.
"… You're taking your anger out on me."
Su Nanna smiled and nodded.
"That's right, you're taking your anger out on me. Actually, I've been waiting for this day for a long time. There are many things that I can't talk about right now, and many things that I can't settle yet. Wait a moment, let me take a look at my notebook … In the time that I was your protector, you mocked me for repeating a grade 17 times, and called me junior sister 238 times … "
Rorschach decided to lower his head in front of a smiling faction … He was panicking. It was said that this girl had a black belt in karate. Was the dorm room door sturdy enough? Would someone sneak in at night? If someone really did sneak in, his small arms and legs wouldn't be able to handle it. It was said that corpses floated on the Rosi River all year round. He wouldn't join them one night, would he?
"… You grabbed my braid six times, fooled around with some naughty kids, and attacked the girls' bathroom once. You complained to your elementary school teacher seven times, and called me a little black girl 12 times … You copied my homework in the first year of middle school, even copying the wrong words. When the teacher asked, you even said that I copied your homework."
Was this notebook really that thick? You never repeated the same thing in five minutes? Or did you use codes to remember everything?
By the way, you're far too vengeful. You even recorded such childish things in a notebook? Was it the first year of elementary school or kindergarten?
Also, was that all my fault? Attacking the girls' bathroom? Didn't you tell me that you chased me all the way to the ends of the earth before I entered the girls' bathroom? Even if I lifted your skirt first, was there a need for you to chase me with a toilet bowl?
Did you really think that you could pretend to be a lady just by wearing a pair of glasses? That you could become a literary girl just by wearing a braid? Ptui! In the entire Huanan District, who didn't know that Big Sister Nana, one of the three tough girls, was capable of taking on ten people at once? Big Sister Nana was a true man.
Even though there were so many bad points, Rorschach decided that it would be better for him not to make a comment as he looked at the girl who was about to overflow with resentment and considering the difference in combat strength between them.
Childhood sweethearts were wonderful? Heh heh, the endless grudges and grudges accumulated from childhood, from lifting skirts to kicking balls, the endless conflicts in the little notebook of vengeance, even if there was an opportunity for feelings to ferment, they would most likely turn into bromance. That was the truth.
Su Nanna's expression became more and more strange as Rorschach read out his past. Rorschach marveled at the fact that he hadn't died even after courting death so much back then. At the same time, he also felt that his life was becoming more and more unsafe.
In that instant, facing Su Nanna who was smiling sweeter and sweeter, Rorschach made a decision in order to not become a floating corpse on the Lusi River. His ultimate technique … Ferocious Tiger Descent!
"Junior? What a joke, you're obviously older than me by two months, senior — no, big sister! From today onwards, you're my big sister. Big Sister, how can this little lunch be enough for your puberty big sister? Let's go, I'll treat you to a big meal. "
"Yep, I heard that the Baja ribs in the backstreets are pretty good. I've been wanting to try them for a long time."
The girl nodded with a smile as if she had already expected this development. She put away her notebook.
She was easy to talk to? However, Rorschach knew that as long as he said no, he would have to start all over again.
"Baja beef?"
"Baja dragon ribs. Baja dragon ribs are made from the lower limbs of a Spine-tailed Dragon. A Spine-tailed Dragon only has less than six kilograms of top-quality meat."
Even though Rorschach had only just arrived, he knew that this was a high-end restaurant that specialized in serving nobles. It seemed that this was a restaurant that specialized in dragon meat cuisine. It was famous for being expensive.
Rorschach's heart was bleeding as he calculated his own living expenses. However, when he thought about the conflict between them, and more importantly, when he saw Su Nanna silently clenching her tiny fists and her little notebook of vengeance fluttering in the wind, he also thought about her black belt and unknown combat strength …
