11 C.11 First Transmigration Arc 1: Xiao Mei, The Villain
===∆
It's only six a.m in the morning yet the city was already full of life and busy people, having their breakfast in some restaurants nearby as they ready themselves to work, some are even walking with a phone in their ear, clearly talking to someone. Of course not only workers could be seen at the buzzling city, a lot of tourists also appreciate the cleanliness and its aesthetically pleasing view. A lot of tourists tend to go here for viewing, amazing services and of course the food. Especially the food.
One of the people who enjoyed it the most was Xiao Mei. She's an actress who was usually a villain of the story, but in reality she's actually a kind of person that everybody loves. She's beautiful, she's kind and pretty smart, she was also well liked by every mother for their sons' because of her nature. She's down to earth and never forgets where she came from before she became a star. Even though she's a villain –in her acting industry since she was usually picked as one–that everybody hates, in real life they love her because of her personality and the nature that she shows.
By what I said shows, yes, because this supposed to be her real personality was actually just an act. In fact she's really not good at any role that will be given to her besides the role villain, because that was who she really is.
A villain
The reason why it was so easy for her to act as a villain is because she put herself as that character. She thinks that she's the one who was doing the bullying, not the character that she was supposed to play. And because of that, many directors and actors applaud her acting skills as the villain...she's splendid when it comes to that role, she never accepts any roles but that.
In the cold weather of winter, even if it's daylight, the clouds covers the sun's light but bright enough for the usual 7 AM. She's wearing a simple clothes, makeup and a wig that would change her face so when she goes out no one would know that it was her. Her make-up skills were good enough for you to think that she's not the villain-actress.
Her usual waist length black hair, were now a plain dirty blond, a short curly hair with a cute hairband. She's also wearing a blue contact lenses and a glass that was big enough to give you an illusion of her having a small face but not the type that would make her look like a nerd. In fact the glasses that she choose is actually aesthetically pleasing. She looks cute. She looks way different than her overly gorgeous looks that everyone's envy of.
" Where the heck is he?! " She said as she waited for someone in the park, her long sharp nails repeatedly tapped on her phone, indicating that she's getting impatient. She waited a bit longer, for only ten minutes actually, before she dials the number and calls the person she was waiting for. After three rings, the other end hangs up the call–whoever he was, he obviously knew what he was doing– making her piss off that she almost threw her phone on the ground. Her face was getting redder while she gritted her teeth, restraining herself to not yell in frustration. She was still in public after all
" Hey~ do you miss me so much that you have to call me? Looking at you right now it seems like you were, do you want to see my handsome face that badly" said with a playful tone by a playful person as he leans himself on the back of the bench where Xiao Mei was sitting. He blows her wig that was covering her ears playfully, making the other one slap him in anger.
" Why are you so late?! Do you know how long I have been waiting here?" She said with gritted teeth,
' damn she's so furious she looks like an angry baby chimpanzee.' The unknown playful man can't help but compare her to an angry chimpanzee making a small laugh escape his mouth.
"Pfft-- I mean I'm truthfully very sorry, MeiMei, I didn't mean to but there's a crying kid over there* points a place that looks like mini forests* and as a good samaritan that I am, I helped the lost kid to find his way, thus why I'm late, even though I'm actually on the nic of our time meeting" he explains with a side smirk.
" But anyways, these are the files that you asked for, " he said as he gave the thick brown envelope to Xiao Mei. " Now give me my money " he said as his hand folds and unfolds repeatedly, as if telling her to give his money right now. Xiao Mei– being herself of course– checked through the files first to know if all the things that she requested were inside. Once she's satisfied, she gave him the cute backpack filled with money.
"Here, there's not a cent missing. You may leave now. I will contact you if I have informations I want you to collect, but keep on eye of that whor*" she said with a glare as she walked away after she said what is needed to be said, she did not even waited the other's reply.
" Of course!" He said with his playful tone as he waves his hands goodbye like a child. After Xiao Mei's back was nowhere to be seen, his playful smile and expressions left his face in an instant. He rolls his eyes and slump himself on the wooden bench, a deep sigh escapes his lips that were dry because of cold and dehydration. He blew his uncovered hands and was turning a bit blue because of the cold. His handsome face was pale as eye bags were dark and deep. Even though this stressed feature of his, you can't deny that he is actually handsome as his bags become a plus to his charms.
" Damn, I'm so handsome " he praises himself with a smile as he look up to appreciate the sky.

White sheets that are soft as the cloud while the soft ray of the sun from the window brightens the room. Grey, foamy and large comforter covers the two figures, both sleeping peacefully on the bed under the warm comforter. These two figures lays on the cloud-like bed with only peaceful snores and angelic faces could be heard and seen from the two, even if both of them were half naked and filled with marks that were left from their last deed— that was almost 4 nights ago mind you— they both look like sweet couples sleeping together as how the muscled man secure the other on his chest while the pale and smaller man wraps his legs possessively on the other's legs as he leans his face on the other's hard chest.
If you think that they are LiJu and Zhou XiuYing, then· · · Ding! Ding! Ding! You are correct! The two were indeed LiJu and his YingYing.
At first, before they slept, both of them were actually at the edge of the bed and even made a barrier that LiJu himself created. It's childish really and he knows that, he just wants a small privacy of himself on his bed even though it doesn't make sense.
After a few minutes later, LiJu wakes up as he opens his eyes, groaning as he feels his left arm a bit heavy and numb. He completely opens his eyes as his ocean ones meet a curly chocolate colored hair covering his sight. He was confused at first and thought that maybe somebody broke into his house and slept beside him since he's so tempting when sleeping and decided to sleep beside him.
He quickly throws that idea at the back of his head when he remembered that he put his YingYing on the bed when he dozed off in the middle of the movie as he slept afterwards. Yawning, he turns with his YingYing still in his embrace as he carefully puts the other on his chest. Now he was completely sleeping on LiJu's chest. LiJu felt satisfied at that as a small smile forms on his lips in contentment.
He wraps one of his arms back on the other's waist as he brushes his fingertips to the soft curly locks of his YingYing back that would show his face, so that he could take a proper look. Drools escape at the corner of his pink heart shaped lips as quiet snores are heard. LiJu kisses the other's forehead as he buried his nose on his YingYing's rich locks, sniffing occasionally, and closes his eyes back again before he kisses the other's smooth forehead as he embraces the other.
"Hmm…"
He stopped as he leaned back to his pillow and removes his hand instantly when he felt the other starting to wake up.
" LiJu…" Zhou XiuYing yawns on LiJu's chest like a kitten refusing to wake up. He calls the other's name with closed eyes as he says " hug me again " before he goes back to his peaceful dream, snores invades the silent room. LiJu who was shocked at first, chuckles but complies anyways and just stays on the bed while he waited for the other to wake up again as he sniffs the other's hair while caressing his YingYing's smooth back.
He never thought that he would be willing to wait for someone to wake up, with that person laying on top of him like it was normal. Deep down in his heart, he knew that he's starting to change but he just shrugged the thought off and just went with the flow like he normally does.
