Chapter 8: Picking Up a Little Girl (Requesting Reviews and Monthly Votes)

"Brother Nan... Brother Nan, are you okay?" Seeing Mu Fei run away without looking back, the chubby Donggua panted for a long time before he managed to stand up, enduring the pain in his body, and struggled to move to Li Chaonan's side.

Li Chaonan, after being shaken by Donggua, slowly woke up. However, the pain in his jaw and body was unbearable. When he tried to speak, he found that his mouth involuntarily opened wide, and he couldn't make any sound.

"Brother Nan, don't move, your jaw is dislocated." The guy who had been knocked down by Light first had now recovered. After standing up, he helped the three people who had fallen to their feet. They supported each other by the shoulders, which made them feel better.

"Let's take Brother Nan to the hospital first. I wonder what this guy is made of? How can he be so strong? It's too scary..." One of the guys said with lingering fear, his words resonating with the others. Among them, Li Chaonan was the most bitter. He had only wanted to regain some face for the class, but now he had suffered a huge loss. Six people had been beaten up by one person, and it would take at least a month to recover. If the guys from other schools came to cause trouble, he would be in serious trouble.

But to be honest, this was also strange. He had fought with Mu Fei before, and that guy wasn't this strong. Had he secretly learned some martial arts? How could he have so much strength? It seemed that even ten people might not be able to beat him.

Thinking about this, Li Chaonan felt a bit sour. He regretted provoking Mu Fei, even though it was hard to swallow his pride. But there was nothing he could do. Even if he wanted to laugh bitterly, he couldn't—his jaw was dislocated by Mu Fei.

Li Chaonan couldn't speak, so he just waved his hand, signaling his brothers to stop discussing the matter. Then the six of them supported each other and walked towards the main road.

...

Mu Fei's mind was in chaos, and his only thought was to get home as quickly as possible to find the cute maid girl. Perhaps all these questions would have an answer.

"Driver, Zengfu Community." Mu Fei hailed a taxi and got in, his right hand continuously rubbing his temples, feeling his heart race.

It was a worry about the unknown changes in himself. Although his body was developing in a good direction, becoming stronger and smarter, who knew if there were any side effects? What if he became a vegetable or an idiot after being awesome for a while? Even becoming an idiot would be better than turning into a monster like in the movie "District 49"... Mu Fei didn't dare to think about it, and just thinking about it made his back tingle.

As the taxi drove, the rain outside grew heavier. Mu Fei wiped his glasses, which had been splashed with rain, with his shirt. Just as he was about to put them on, he noticed something was wrong.

"These glasses aren't mine." Mu Fei carefully examined the glasses. Although they looked very similar to his, if he wasn't paying attention, he wouldn't notice the difference. But these glasses were actually a size larger than the ones he usually wore, especially the joints between the temples and the frames, which were very different from his.

"That's not right. These glasses aren't mine. Where did they come from? Why does the prescription fit me perfectly?" Mu Fei thought, but like those strange things, he couldn't figure out what was going on. Suddenly, he had an idea, "Could the prescription... adjust automatically?"

Thinking about this, Mu Fei did something that looked very foolish to others. He put the glasses on upside down—his left and right eyes had a significant difference in prescription, about fifty degrees. If he wore the glasses upside down, he would definitely feel very dizzy. But when Mu Fei put the glasses on, something strange happened. After a few seconds of mild dizziness, the environment inside the taxi became clear in his eyes.

Now Mu Fei didn't know what to think. How could his random thoughts become reality? He then focused on the bus stop sign outside the car window. The taxi was moving, and the sign was at least thirty to forty meters away. Normally, with his vision, Mu Fei wouldn't be able to read the words on it, but the words were clearly visible to him.

"Xiangshan District Government Station"

"Zhengyu Garden Station"

"Qingbing Road Station"

...

Mu Fei couldn't help but read the words on the sign out loud. Not only could he see the station names, but he could also clearly see the small ads like "ID Card 139xxxxx" and "Hereditary Treatment for Skin Diseases" on it.

Mu Fei's eyes kept looking around, and the more he saw, the more shocked he became. On the 27th floor of the opposite high-rise, a woman in her forties was doing housework in just an apron. On the 19th floor, a pair of panties was drying on the balcony. On the 17th floor, an old man was watching TV. On the 13th floor, it seemed to be a girl's room, with a huge Hello Kitty clock hanging on the wall. If not for the various billboards blocking the lower floors, Mu Fei was sure he could see inside the rooms clearly.

"Are these glasses or a telescope?" Mu Fei took off his glasses and looked at the high-rise again, which was at least two to three hundred meters away.

While Mu Fei was studying the glasses, the moderate rain had turned into a heavy downpour. The raindrops, like strings of pearls, fell continuously, splashing on the ground and forming water flowers. The rain blocked the view, making it impossible to see far. The car also slowed down due to the heavy rain.

Looking at the heavy rain outside, Mu Fei suddenly felt a pang of worry. This morning, the little girl had cried when he left. She wouldn't be waiting outside, would she? There was no place to take shelter near his building. If she hadn't left, she would be drenched. Thinking about this, Mu Fei started to worry.

Fortunately, Mu Fei's school wasn't far from home. It didn't take long to reach the community gate. But at this moment, Mu Fei realized a key problem: he didn't have enough money to pay the taxi fare. Fortunately, the old man at the convenience store downstairs was a neighbor, and without a word, he handed the money to Mu Fei. Mu Fei paid the fare and was able to leave.

The taxi driver took the money, gave Mu Fei a dirty look, and got back into the car. Mu Fei didn't have time to deal with him. He stood at the building entrance, looking around, trying to find the cute and delicate little girl, but after several rounds of looking left and right, he still couldn't find the person he was looking for.

"Ah..." Mu Fei couldn't help but sigh. This sigh surprised him. Why did he feel disappointed?

Mu Fei opened the building door and ran up quickly. There was no place to hide in the hallway. If the little girl hadn't left, she would have been found by Mu Fei. But when he reached the fifth floor and his front door, he still didn't see the small figure.

"Did she leave?" Mu Fei muttered to himself, feeling a bit sour, as if he had lost something precious.

"Well, I was so harsh to her this morning. How could she not leave? If she didn't leave... she must be a fool..." Mu Fei said to himself as he closed the door, but when he walked to the balcony, he was instantly speechless.

His balcony faced away from the street, and in the corner of the building, under a small shed, a small and delicate maid girl was squatting, trying to take shelter from the rain under the shed.

The shed was originally just a small shelter for stray cats, built by some old people in their free time. How big could a cat shelter be? And the roof was just a few boards, not enough to block the heavy rain.

The little girl put her hands on her head, but her whole body was still drenched. Her skirt was covered in mud, and she didn't even have proper shoes, wearing an old pair of slippers from Mu Fei's house. Her black knee-high socks were covered in yellow mud, making her look pitiful.

"You really are a fool, can't even take shelter from the rain?" Mu Fei couldn't help but scold her, but his heart felt like a bottle of vinegar had been spilled, making his nose and eyes sting. He wiped his nose and ran down the stairs.

Mu Fei ran to the shed like a madman, panting heavily when he stopped. The little girl, seeing someone approach, shrank back in fear, but when she looked up and saw it was Mu Fei, her lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face. The little girl, already small and delicate, looked even more pitiful, and her crying made Mu Fei's heart ache like a needle.

"You idiot, don't you know that getting wet will make you sick? Can't you take shelter from the rain?" Mu Fei shouted, but he himself felt weak, knowing he was the one who had driven her out.

The rain didn't let up, and Mu Fei was drenched. He took two steps forward, bent down, and extended his hand to the little girl with an encouraging smile, but the rain hitting his face made it hard for him to open his eyes.

The little girl, seeing Mu Fei extend his hand, couldn't hold back and threw herself into his arms, sobbing, "Brother, Xiaomeng is good, please don't throw Xiaomeng away."

This little girl had suffered so much today, her body drenched, her long socks torn, and her face covered in mud, looking like a stray cat that no one wanted, making her even more pitiful. And all this was because of him...

Mu Fei felt a wave of guilt, gently stroking her disheveled black hair. For some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of fulfillment, as if the heavens, seeing that his girlfriend had left him, had sent a little girl to keep him company.

"Okay, okay, I promise. Unless you want to leave, even if the sky falls, I won't drive you away." Mu Fei smiled and pulled the drenched little girl in front of him. The little girl, hearing Mu Fei's words, looked at him in shock, speechless.

Seeing her stunned look, Mu Fei put on a serious face, "What? Don't you want to?"

The little girl, tears still streaming, nodded like a nodding doll, "Yes, yes, Xiaomeng wants to."

After that, the two stood in the rain, looking at each other and laughing like lunatics.

After a while, Mu Fei bent down and picked up the little girl, "Come on, let's go home."

At that moment, a voice suddenly echoed in his mind, "Intimacy level increased to Level 1, Level 1 permissions activated."
