Zhou Xiao has transmigrated into the world of Honkai: Star Rail, becoming a logistics staff member on the Astral Express. He also obtained a self-discipline system, which grants random rewards as l...
The tram moved slowly forward, and the carriage was very quiet. Sitting next to Zhou Xiao, March 7 first glanced around casually, and then his gaze inadvertently swept over Zhou Xiao's face.
At this moment, Zhou Xiao was resting with his eyes closed and did not notice that March 7 was paying attention to him, which allowed March 7 to take the opportunity to look at him a few more times.
Um.
How should I put it?
March 7th wanted to say something, but never took the first step.
March 7th... What's wrong with you?
She couldn't help but ask herself this question.
You're not usually this shy and hesitant to speak...
You're such a lively, brave, and slightly chuunibyou (delusional) girl... no, not at all chuunibyou...
Why are you now afraid to even ask a single question?
March 7th scratched his head in distress.
She felt that she was somewhat timid and hesitant in front of Zhou Xiao, or rather, in matters of the heart.
She was terrified that Zhou Xiao really didn't like her at all, and that she would be rejected by him. How would she possibly get along with him on the train then...?
Ring ring—
As she was asking herself questions and making wild guesses, the tram suddenly turned a corner, catching her off guard and causing her to lose her grip and accidentally lean against Zhou Xiao's shoulder.
As if he had expected it, Zhou Xiao subconsciously touched March 7's head with his right hand on his left shoulder.
"?" March 7th was surprised to feel the softness in his palm. After settling down, he saw Zhou Xiao's actions and asked, "How did you anticipate this?"
“Kedaixiu…” Zhou Xiao responded with just three words, which made Sanyueqi feel both warm and angry.
She did stumble a lot on the train... but that was the Starry Sky Train, this was just an ordinary passenger tram.
"Sit still and hold on tight."
"Oh..." March 7th adjusted her posture upon hearing Zhou Xiao's voice, and her big eyes unconsciously turned to Zhou Xiao again.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" Zhou Xiao opened his eyes at some point, and for some reason he had a feeling that something was going to happen on March 7th.
"Ah, no way..." March 7th denied it to the death after being discovered.
"I'm telling you, I really don't have any money to lend..." Zhou Xiao emphasized.
"You... alright, I really won't borrow money from you." March 7 thought Zhou Xiao must be a dead straight man, but she could only say it in her heart and didn't dare to say it to Zhou Xiao's face.
"Um..."
After receiving confirmation, Zhou Xiao nodded and then asked, "Then why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?"
"Is it okay that you're good-looking?"
"Huh?" Zhou Xiao frowned slightly. This was an answer he hadn't expected, especially coming from March 7th.
"Something's wrong with you..."
As he spoke, he silently moved two seats away from March 7th and sat in the other corner of the tram.
March 7th: "..."
Looking at Zhou Xiao, who had once again closed his eyes to rest, March 7 clenched her fists. She really wanted to stuff her socks into Zhou Xiao's mouth and seal that annoying mouth away completely.
(A beautiful line from a traditional Chinese poem)
He's a perfectly nice guy, so why does he have a mouth?
What do you mean I'm not right?
I feel perfectly right!
On the seventh day of the third month, I felt extremely angry.
If I don't want to watch it, I don't want to watch it...
As she thought about it, her gaze shifted to the opposite side of the tram.
At this moment, Xingmei was staring at her with dead fish eyes, her expression seemingly saying: Grandma, what are you doing? Why don't you unleash your ultimate move!
Xingmei is really speechless.
She felt she had already made a great sacrifice today, but March 7th was still doing some meaningless, ineffective attacks.
What's the use of just looking? Just looking will only make Zhou Xiao think that March 7th is a pervert... a perverted tram pervert!
March 7th noticed Xingmei's expression and immediately looked embarrassed.
superior!
Xingmei gestured to March 7, which puzzled Danheng, who was reading a book nearby.
Why are they starting to use hand gestures and mudras?
Is there some new code I don't know?
So Danheng silently put down the book in his hand and observed Xingmei and March 7's sign language. After watching for a long time, he still couldn't figure out the mystery, which made him wonder if it was his own problem.
Looking at the book title on the cover, "Are You Really Smart?", the question seemed to stun him into silence.
broken...
He's lost his brain...
...
After Xingmei urged her on, March 7 finally mustered up her courage. Just as she was about to call out to Zhou Xiao, the tram stopped before she could even ask.
"We've arrived at the station..." the tram driver's voice rang out.
This forced them to get off the bus and leave, and also shattered the courage that March 7 had finally mustered.
"Did you call me just now?" Zhou Xiao asked March 7 after getting out of the car.
"Ah..." March 7th nodded, his expression slightly stiff: "I told you to get off... We've arrived at the station. I thought you were asleep."
"Oh...I see."
I admit defeat...
Xingmei was stunned.
She even wanted to ask Zhou Xiao on behalf of March 7th.
She truly hadn't expected that March 7th would be so hesitant and timid in matters of the heart...
"Master, I want to ask you something on March 7th..."
Upon hearing Xingmei speak, March 7th immediately reacted as if his fur had been pricked up, rushing over to cover Xingmei's mouth.
"Please... I can ask myself, why are you asking?" March 7 whispered in Xingmei's ear.
"Well, you should at least have some time..."
"I'll definitely ask tonight," March 7th said.
"Hmm..." Xingmei nodded.
...
"What?" Zhou Xiao turned around when he heard someone call him again and looked at Xingmei.
What did you just say?
"Ah...she wanted to ask what we're having for dinner..." Before Xingmei could answer, March Seven covered Xingmei's mouth and answered first.
"What should we eat?" Zhou Xiao hesitated for two seconds before replying, "Just something quick and easy..."
"Oh..."
Xingmei nodded to indicate that she understood.
Seeing that the crisis was over, March 7 breathed a sigh of relief and then released his hand from Xingmei's mouth.
"You... even if Master likes you, you'll drag him down until he doesn't like you anymore..." Xingmei wiped her mouth, glanced at March 7 with a look of exasperation.
She was very unhappy about eating this melon.
Listening to Xingmei's scolding, March 7th didn't know how she had become like this, not like herself at all.
"It seems... you know your master very well? Do you know what kind of person your master likes?" she asked.
“I certainly don’t understand as much as you do, but I know… Master definitely won’t like you being so hesitant right now…” Xingmei said, “You need to be brave, you need to stand up for yourself.”
If they're so hesitant even when asking about their ideal type, what will they do if they have to hesitate for ten or eight years before they confess their feelings?
