Chapter 62: The Goddess's Weakness, Sports Idiot
The recent chapters have been setting up the plot and are a bit dull, please forgive me, also seeking votes, thank you for your support.
"Big sister is really cunning..." Only after Xǔ Cǎi Yuè and the others had run far away did she say this in a low, mysterious tone. Would Xǔ Xuē let Zhōu Yún touch her? The probability of that happening was lower than the apocalypse tomorrow...
"Hmm... " Xǔ Xuān smiled lightly and said: "What I'm saying is all true. Look at how formidable Xiao Yun is, like a gust of wind, even Xiao Jian had to use his full strength just to barely catch up. Not long ago when they were competing, he was still far inferior to Xiao Jian. To what extent does one need to work hard in order to make such rapid progress? I really want to know."
Xu Caiyue stared intently at the magazine in her hand, taking a small sip of soy milk: "Isn't Big Sister supposed to be able to see into the future? Why doesn't she take a sneak peek..."
"Ah, I'm not capable of seeing that far ahead, only vague glimpses of things within a day's time, beyond that it's all dark and unclear." As she spoke, Xu Xuan seemed to recall something from the past and suddenly became serious, saying: "Moreover, the future is constantly changing. If I don't follow the predicted steps, it could very likely change someone's life..."
"I told you before, he's not someone you can predict. Nor is he someone you can change just by yourself." Xǔ Cǎi Yuè struck back mercilessly: "Don't think so highly of yourself, taking everything on your own shoulders. If you can't see yourself clearly, you'll only end up binding yourself."
"Ah ha!" Xu Xuan exclaimed in surprise, her eyes excitedly asking: "Has Little Sister Yue finally figured it out and is preparing to join the Starry Sky Rescue Team to save people from danger?"
Just like last night at the restaurant, Xu Caiyue slanted her gaze and nodded slightly, making it seem as if she was agreeing. Then, curling up the corner of her mouth and rolling her tongue, she said: "No way"
"Hmm... what a pity..." Xu Xuan also knew it was hard to get Xu Caiyue's help, as the two sisters wouldn't join forces unless absolutely necessary. It wasn't that they didn't get along well, but rather because of the rules set by the old master of the Xu family.
Both are clever people, the closer they get, the easier it is to produce small contradictions. In childhood, it's easy to handle, just a fight over a toy. Now that they're grown up, if they secretly start fighting, the loss for the Xu family will be huge. So before someone who can balance them appears, it's better to separate the two first and ensure safety. Otherwise, it'll lead to the tragic outcome of sisters hurting each other.
Xu Caiyue gazed quietly at Zhou Yun, who was running with all his might, and suddenly added: "Sister-in-law doesn't have to despair, if he's willing, then it's a different story."
It's clear that she was hinting that if Zhou Yun joins Starry Sky, she will follow closely behind. That way, the timing of their collaboration won't be far off. Another layer of meaning is to tell Xu Xuan that Zhou Yun will be someone who can suppress both of them.
Xu Xuan's face drew a mysterious smile, as if she was thinking: "Since my cousin thinks so, then I'll wait and see."
On the other hand, Xu Jian finally caught up with Zhou Yun and quickly pulled him over, saying seriously: "Kid, why are you running so fast? There are still 20 laps left behind! Adjust your breathing and slow down your pace! Otherwise, after a few more laps, you'll be exhausted!"
"No way!" Zhou Yun flatly refused and said with a straight face: "If you could touch the goddess, would you slow down your pace?"
"Is your brain only capable of going 'ding'? Now, morning exercise is urgent, don't be distracted by beauty." Xu Jian warned while running: "You should know that if you can't finish thirty laps before 7 o'clock, little sister won't accompany you for morning exercise tomorrow! Listen to me, slow down your pace and adjust your breathing, steady and steady!"
Xu Jian was trying to persuade Zhou Yun with reason and emotion, step by step. But unexpectedly, Zhou Yun's brain was even more agile, and he quickly retorted: "Let me touch it once and then we'll talk... anyway, we've already run halfway, let's just keep going..."
Damn it, Xu Jian cursed in his heart. How can this guy be so stupid! What's the difference between touching once and touching several times? Don't you know that the difference between 'having' and 'not having' is like heaven and earth!
"Jian Lao Da, why does Xu Xuan want to practice walking in a straight line?" Zhou Yun asked, recalling his earlier confusion.
"Who's your boss!" Xu Jian replied subconsciously, deep in thought. Then, he couldn't help but look towards the lake opposite him. Watching Xun Xuan walk forward step by step with caution, he said lightly: "Heaven is fair, it gives you one thing and takes away another."
"What's going on?" Upon hearing this, Zhou Yun immediately calmed down: "What did Xu Xuan lose?"
The speed slowed down, and Xu Jian felt it immediately.
"She hasn't lost anything. It's just that Little Sister has been exceptionally clever since childhood and is one of the few girls in the world with a full score IQ."
Thud... Zhou Yun lost his footing for a moment and was tripped to the ground. This time he didn't fall on purpose, Xu Jian's words really startled him.
Sitting on the ground, Zhou Yun's eyes were dazed and his mouth was mumbling: "Intelligence... full... full marks.... Child prodigy? No! Goddess! Not! Female god! Xu Xuan is really a goddess!!"
"Are you surprised?" Xǔ Jiàn said leisurely: "Little sister is indeed very clever, but her physical strength is inversely proportional to her intelligence. Until now, she still looks like a child, lacking physical strength and unable to grasp body balance. You see her walking normally will always jump and turn in circles, just like dancing. In fact, Little Xiǎo uses a unique rhythm to maintain body balance, once running in a straight line, the maximum distance won't exceed 30 meters before she'll be tripped up."
So that's how it is! Zhou Yun nodded clearly. No wonder Xu Xuan usually likes to walk with people, it turns out that she uses people as crutches. However, being used as a crutch by a great beauty, any man would be more than willing.
Zhou Yun guessed that Xu Xuan probably didn't understand how to keep her body balanced, so when she walked alone, she would take one step at a time, looking very elegant and pleasing to the eye.
"Could it be a physical development issue?" Zhou Yun patted the dust off his knee and stood up again. Xu Xuan was likely to have an unstable lower body, which would cause her to trip easily when walking.
"It can be said that it is, and it can also be said that it is not." Xu Jian didn't know why, but he honestly explained: "Little sister's development is very good, every aspect is the standard golden ratio. Even professionals in the field say that Little Xuan is like a work of art, perfect to the point where it can't be improved."
"Why can't you grasp the balance yet?" Zhou Yun asked, getting to the bottom of it. Xǔ Xuān's figure was great, as Xǔ Jiàn said, simply a standard golden ratio. Wherever should be straight, wherever should be curved, all were perfectly proportioned and tempting.
"The truth of the world, the law of nature." Xu Jian sighed and said: "No one is perfect, gold has no flaws. Perhaps perfection itself is a flaw... No one can answer why. Only she is still trying her best to overcome her shortcomings."
Zhou Yun fell silent for a moment, unknowingly clenching his fists tightly.
Xu Xuan is not a goddess... she also has her own shortcomings. But why do I think she's even more admirable? If I could still look up to her before, now she's become unattainably high, beyond my reach.
She is kind and gentle, with outstanding achievements, and stunning looks that can captivate the city. Just like a goddess, even in a sea of people, she will be effortlessly noticed. Such a perfect person, everyone can only envy and resent her, but how many people know the efforts she makes behind her back? With Xu Xuan being able to accompany herself to execute her schedule, it can be seen how she usually demands herself.
Zhou Yunyue thought about it more and more, feeling that Xu Xuan was worthy of respect. No! Infatuated! Completely fallen! Goddess Xu Xuan... I want to touch!!!
