i m not going to be bullied by a girl
Editor: @potatoes | i edit for fun
I stared at her and I was not sure where the conversation was headed.
“Then, do you believe that I’m a girl? Do you believe me without any verification?”
“Verification? How would I verify?”
I asked in a bad mood.
“It’s best if you believe me, but if you don’t, I’ll let you… touch… my newly born breasts…”
It was as if she was discussing about new born puppies or kittens.
It’s like when your pet has kids, you have to show it off to everyone so they would say words of praise like ‘so cute’.
How much common sense does she lack? Does she not know that she cannot say those dangerous words in front of the opposite sex?
“Huh? Do you think growing breasts is something amazing?”
“Yeah….”
She actually admitted it unabashedly.
After she saw my expression of disgust, she lowered her head in a hurry and apologized:
“I’m sorry! I’ll reflect on it! I bullied you all year long like a devil, now I’m speaking without any sense of shame… You must dislike me!”
No, if we are talking about my feelings towards you, rather than dislike, it is more on the level of ‘hatred’.
Worst of all, you became a girl, and all my motivation for revenge is gone. What was all my effort and hard work for?
I was filled with frustration and endless emptiness.
“Forget it, I’ll consider our issues to be settled as long as you return brother Optimus Prime. It’s the big red truck robot!”
She he had a stunned look on her face. Don’t tell me she won’t be satisfied with such a generous offer?
“Can you give me a bit more time?” She pleaded while looking pitiful.
“I actually have a lot I want to say to you… Don’t worry, I’ve properly kept all the toys I took from you. If you listen to the end, I’ll return all of it!”
I breathed a sigh of relief after I heard brother Optimus Prime was safe and sound.
Since she told me she would return all of it, or so I childishly thought, I nodded my head.
She burst into a smile like a criminal on death penalty who just received a suspended sentence. There were even tears of joy in the corners of her eyes.
“Thank you, I’m really sorry… I was so happy after I received your letter that I wasn’t able to get any sleep…”
There are indeed dark circles under her eyes.
“Happy? Shouldn’t it be scared? Are you not worried that I would beat you until your face turns swollen, and your mother won’t even recognize you?”
“No, the Ye Lin I know won’t do that. But… It can’t be helped if I’m treated that way. At that time, I’ll close my eyes and receive punishment to atone for my sins.”
What? Eyes closed while lying on the ground so I can hit you? Is that the deeply moving final battle with the Little Tyrant that I have envisioned numerous times? Why does it feel so sad? Why do I have a sudden urge to cry!
“I know it’s useless no matter how many times I apologize… But back then, I was tall and strong because of my genes, I wasn’t like a girl at all. Since I wasn’t welcome among girls, I pretended to be a boy to play with the guys… I used my superior physique to bully a lot of people, especially you, so… I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
She looks sincere based on her posture when she apologized.
“It’s fine, you don’t have to apologize anymore. Our business would be settled anyway once you return my toys, why do I have to forgive you?”
“No, you have to forgive me!” Her tone was firm.
“It’s because… I have an important request. If you don’t agree, my sickness will never be cured!”
“Sickness? What’s wrong?”
I was surprised that I was actually concerned about her wellbeing.
“Um… You should know that I don’t have any characteristics of a girl because I’ve spent a long time as a boy. At one time I even questioned my own gender, and I’ve had thoughts of living the rest of my life as a boy. I had a lot of fun playing with you guys back then. Since the boys even played perverted games like ‘monkey stealing peaches’, I had to stuff socks in my panties to prevent from being exposed… In the end, the breasts that I thought would never grow, finally came out…” (TN: Monkey stealing peaches is where you grab another dude by the testicles… Not sure how you would play this or why…)
“Stop talking about panties and breasts! I’m already feeling embarrassed for you! Hurry and tell me your sickness.”
“Okay… I started to have suspicions about my gender after my breasts grew, it was serious to the point where I couldn’t see anyone. If it was as a boy, I already thoroughly understand males, but if it was as a girl, I suddenly realized that I have no idea how to interact with males my age… The doctor said if this keeps up, I might develop gender identity disorder…”
“Where did you find this quack doctor! You already had gender identity disorder! You already had it ever since you stole my Tang HuLu when we were six years old!”
Okay, so it’s just gender identity disorder? I thought it was an incurable terminal illness! Wait, why should I be worried about this guy’s health?
“But… The doctor said that if I’m not cured, I won’t be able to accept my real gender in the future, and I might marry a female…”
“What kind of damn doctor is that! China doesn’t even allow same-sex marriages! Please don’t make irresponsible predictions!”
“Well, in order to not break any laws, I’ve decided to proactively treat my sickness.”
“Treatment? How would you treat it?”
“My… My main symptom is that I’m afraid of boys the same age as me, but there’s one person I’m not afraid of…”
Are you talking about me? Are you not afraid because you used to step on me?
“However, since we’ve never seen each other for a while, I thought he forgot about me… But I received a letter from him yesterday…”
“I’m really… really happy…”
She rushed towards me without any prior indications, and her face was filled with courage.
I was almost scared to death. I subconsciously thought she was going to hit my eyes, so I covered my face in a hurry. Unexpectedly, she hugged onto my waist.
Under the force of inertia, my back hit the thick banyan tree.
“What.. are you doing?”
I looked down and her face was a deep shade of red, it literally could not get any redder.
“Ye Lin, please be my boyfriend!”
“This is my life’s request!!!”
She looked at me like Bambi and awaited my reply.
I was torn by grief and almost bit off my tongue to commit suicide.
I struggle to escape from her embrace, but it was futile. It seems she is using all her strength based on her physique.
“Stop joking around! I don’t even know your name!”
“I’m Ren XiaoQin! The same Qin as the Qin from celery! Now you know! Please give me a reply! I won’t let go if you don’t give me a reply!”
She buried her head in the folds of my clothes and hugged me even tighter.
“Don’t tease me! Are you saying you bullied me before because you liked me?”
“That’s right! I’m a bad girl who bullies the boy I like! Please give me a reply!”
What kind of fucking development is this! It should have been a shocking battle that shook the heavens and the earth, how did it become a soap opera?
“Let go! It’ll be bad if we’re seen!”
“I’m not afraid of being seen! I’ve already used up my lifetime of courage in order to say that line!”
Xiao Qin held tightly to my clothes and her body shook intensely.
She seemed to be extremely scared. I have never seen anyone scared to this extent.
She was like a scared little rabbit, with red eyes from crying, who jumped into your arms begging for your protection.
I almost couldn’t help but immediately agree to her request.
It’s the instinct of a male, right? We don’t have any resistance to a girl’s tears.
“It’s not like I can’t be your girlfriend…”
At least, that’s what I was planning to say.
But before I said more, I remembered the resentment I have held in my heart for all these years. The humiliation I felt —— being kicked in a river and looking like a drowned rat, having my chair snatched and breaking my butt, having my Optimus Prime snatched away with an evil grin…
Thus I changed my sentence into:
“Being your boyfriend —— that’s impossible!”
“Wh- why?” Xiao Qin had a look of despair.
“No reason! It’s just because I don’t like you!” In order to make her give up, I emphasized the disgust in my tone.
Xiao Qin’s body stopped trembling. She lifelessly left my body, her movements were sluggish, and her eyes were gloomy and devoid of light.
It was as if today was the day she would be executed.
I almost could not beat it anymore and I was going to change my remark, but I steadied my heart and gave her a stern look.
“I’ve worked very hard for this day…” Xiao Qin muttered in a daze, “I’ve abstained from violence, I stayed at home for three years, I’ve even studied thousands of shoujo manga to learn how to be a girl…”
Hey, the direction of your research is wrong! It’s just as sad as a leftover woman researching Korean dramas every day! It would have been more effective using that time to walk around on the streets!
“Why… Why do you still dislike me? I would do anything to not be disliked…”
“Hit me, kick me, you can even spit on me… Can you do everything I’ve done to you before?”
No, you don’t need to do that, please let me go! It’s too awkward!
Xiao Qin’s shoulders began to tremble, then it increased in intensity. Finally, she turned around and started to bawl.
“Sure enough, it’s still because —— I’m not a real girl!”
She ran away while weeping.
I could not express the feeling in my heart as I gazed at her weeping figure disappearing into the fog.
It turns out my old nemesis was not called Ren WoXing.
A girl called Xiao Qin was hurt by my rejection. She ran home crying the whole way, she might even have sad tears roll down her face in her dreams.
Why do I have such an intense feeling of guilt?
But she is the Little Tyrant! An evil tyrant, the root of all evil, a villain who even torments me in my nightmares!
Will I still see her again?
