Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Fifteen minutes. Half an hour...

Apparently, Xiaofan isn't planning to go back tonight.

Liu Zhenghua slowly put down the newspaper. He murmured to himself. Although he knew that some things between young men and women were quite normal, he couldn't help but feel worried.

Will they face any issues? Should they consult me since it's their first time without any experience? Or perhaps... share some safety knowledge with them? What if there's a baby? No, they're adults, if there's a baby, then they'll get married. Oh, I'm going to be a grandfather; just thinking about it makes me a bit excited. Hehe, hehehehe...

In the inner chamber, Liu Siyan came out from the bathroom after washing, put on her pajamas, and with her damp hair hanging down, she looked like a lotus emerging from water.

When a girl is so beautiful that words fail to describe her, all that's left is admiration.

For instance, our classmate Xiaofan was staring at Liu Siyan with wide eyes at this moment. His mouth slightly ajar, looking completely dazed.

Sitting at the makeup mirror with a hairdryer to dry her ends, Liu Siyan saw Xiaofan's expression in the mirror and smiled sweetly.

"What are you looking at..."

"Beauty."

"You're annoying... always talking nonsense."

"You are truly beautiful."

"So you chased me because I'm beautiful, huh?"

"Wow, isn't that reason enough?" Xiaofan teased.

"Then you're just like those guys at school?"

"Pretty much. Anyway, I like you..."

No need for more words of praise; Xiaofan's words were simple and direct, stronger than those pretentious dialogues a hundred times.

"Are you going to sleep now?"

"Sleep here?"

"Hmm."

After drying her hair, Liu Siyan wriggled her toes and climbed into the bed, then pulled the covers open on the other side, signaling Xiaofan to lie down.

"Uncle Liu is still home, maybe I should go to another room."

"Hey, hey, you weren't this timid when we were at your house today."

"No, but there are elders here, wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

"Hmm? My dad has known for a long time that we're dating..."

"Yes, but..."

"Oh come on, lie down quickly, it's freezing."

Without a word, Liu Siyan pulled Xiaofan over, hugged him, and lay down, snuggling against him.

"Wait, Siyan, you've changed so much today, are you sick? Or is something not right?"

Indeed, Siyan's change was too drastic, Xiaofan hadn't been able to react before, but now, it truly seems off. The things she said to him before still echoed in his ears. He'd only been drunk for three days, and now she brings him home?

"Alright, I'll tell you the truth, I went to see Li Sisi and Feng Feifei..."

"What? How could you meet them? Wait? How did they find you?"

"Hold me tighter, and I'll tell you..." Liu Siyan smiled sweetly, snuggling greedily into Xiaofan's arms.

After that, Liu Siyan recounted the incident when Feng Feifei came to the school to find her, and then met with them at the hotel.

Upon learning the truth, Xiaofan couldn't help but admire Li Sisi. Although she seemed scatterbrained, she had noticed so many nuances in that letter and used those details to find Liu Siyan, which was truly impressive.

"I'm sorry Xiaofan, I said those harsh words to you that day."

"Hmm? It's okay, it was my fault anyway."

"As long as you know it's your fault. In the future, don't do that again. You may have meant well, but I was still really mad. But in the end, no matter how mad I was, it didn't matter. You're just that kind of guy. But can we promise now that no matter what happens in the future, you won't leave me behind, absolutely not."

"Hmm? Hmm..."

"Ah, you're just saying that. If it happened again, you'd do the same thing, wouldn't you..."

"Siyan, actually if I fail, the danger is huge, including you, even Uncle Liu would be involved. You can't imagine how ruthless they are."

"I don't care, I'm not the kind of woman who gets angry without reason. Just tell me the stakes, and I'll follow your lead. Why did you have to act to upset me?"

"Hmm, I didn't think it through."

"Glad you know. Hmm..." Liu Siyan huffed her little nose, her angry look was like pouting, rather cute.

"Thank you, Siyan..."

"Listen, tonight, don't sleep, tell me what's going on. Start from the beginning, tell me every bit thoroughly."

"Ah? Didn't I tell you some of it already? What did I say? Who is Shen Zuimo? What exactly have you done? What's going on with Ren Ling? And in XG, what's the relationship between you and Li Sisi and Feng Feifei? Who made you do those dangerous things? Explain everything to me one by one."

"Cough, cough, really..."

"Just talk, I promise I won't get jealous." Liu Siyan puffed up her little cheeks; snuggled in his embrace, listening to him tell stories until dawn felt like a treat.

"Well, the story began when I told you I went to Phoenix Mountain to film a meteor shower and found the injured Zuimo. Brought her back. Then got targeted by assassins. After numerous problems, we finally saved Zuimo. She, not wanting to involve me, followed her brother to a place called Yanhuang Soul."

"Hmm, I've heard you mention these, so what happened after you came to Capital City? Be detailed..."

"I haven't mentioned a part yet. An old predecessor, a truly remarkable predecessor, used his inner strength to save my life in that cedar forest. Later, I discovered he was an old war buddy of my grandfather, a comrade who fought side by side. And in that accident, I got more than thirty years of his power within me."

"Wow, no wonder you suddenly became so strong, so that's why."

"Nonsense, even without those powers, I'm still really good at fighting."

"Hmm, you said Shen Zuimo taught you some combat techniques."

"Ugh... Those powers weren't originally usable by me. Later, in Capital City, the orphan of that old predecessor coincidentally recognized me. She is Ren Ling's grandmother, the original wife of the old predecessor."

"Wait? So this leads to Ren Ling? No, no, not detailed enough, you need to explain everything clearly from your first day in Capital City, starting from getting off the plane..." Liu Siyan refused, this suddenly jumping to Ren Ling wouldn't do.
