Ch 9 – Xiao Ruse
Back at the restaurant, the handsome young man finished his meal and spoke with delight.
"Haih! I've never tasted anything like this ever in my life. I can even say that this is the tastiest meal in the world. Even though I'm full, I'm still not satisfied."
"Hehe... your bill is 5 gold coins." Huyan Lanruo giggled.
Xiao Se was the name of the young man and he said earnestly. "So cheap. In my opinion, this meal is worth at least 10 gold coins."
"Thank you, little sister, for your concern. But the prices are already decided."
"What a shame. Hmm... wait a minute! Why do you call me, little sister? I'm a man." Xiao Su was disappointed but then he realized that the waitress had called her 'little sister' despite her being a man.
"Hehe... just because you are wearing man's clothes, you can't become a man, little sister."
Huyan Lanruo giggled and patted her head. "I've never met anyone who likes to do that."
"Presumptuous! I'm a man. How many times do I need to tell you?" Xiao Su shouted angrily but his eyes were shivering slightly in panic.
Huyan Lanruo stared at her like a predator looked at its prey and smiled. "Then take off your pants and prove it! It will not be a problem for a big boy like you, right?"
Xiao Su was startled, his face flushed in embarrassment. "Y-You... how can you?..."
Just then, his eyes landed on Jason walking out of the kitchen and she said. "Hey boss, you waitress has no shame. You should teach her well."
"What happened?" Jason raised an eyebrow and asked.
Huyan Lanruo giggled and said. "Nothing, honey. I'm just talking with this little sister but for some reason, she is getting angry with me."
Jason sighed and understood everything. He slapped her butt in front of Xiao Su and said.
"How many times do I have to remind you to ignore such things? It's her own habit of walking out, wearing manly clothes. Don't put your nose where it doesn't belong!"
Xiao Su blushed when he saw him spanking her openly but listening to his words left him dumbfounded.
'I am saying that I am a man so why...'
Jason looked at Xiao Su and said. "Anyway, sorry for troubling you but if you really want to achieve something then you can't do that by draping in man clothes, make yourself so capable that you will never have to do such things."
Xiao Su shuddered and stared at him hard. He clenched her hands into fists before he plopped down on the chair.
"Do you really think you understand everything?" He muttered in a low voice before shouting."You don't know shit!"
Jason spread his head helplessly and said. "Yep, we don't. But if you don't tell us then how are we supposed to know it? We're not gods who can read your heart."
Xiao Su gritted his teeth before he sighed and he shared her story with them. He didn't know why but he was feeling that he could trust them and for a moment, he had a strong feeling in his heart that it would bring significant changes to his life.
Jason and the girls listened to his story attentively without commenting anything.
Xiao Su's actual name was Xiao Ruse and she was a girl. She was the only child of the Finance Minister, Marquis Xiao Yunchen. She wanted to be a Jewel Master but failed to awaken it at the age so she could only disguise herself as a man and join the army. Since the world thought that women were inferior to men, she wanted to prove it wrong. Not only that but she wanted to become a Prime Minister based on her own achievement to prove that what men could do, women could do too.
Xiao Ruse wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes.
"Bravo," Erina clapped after she finished her story.
"What a great aspiration. I support you, little sister."
"Me too."
Xiao Ruse thought that they would make fun of her but contrary to her thoughts, the girls liked and supported her dream which surprised her a little and also warmed her heart.
She sighed. "But I don't think I'll be able to achieve my dream at all."
"And why is that?" Jason asked.
"Haih! It didn't matter how much I tried, I couldn't compete with Jewel Masters at the end of the day. We, normal humans, have our limits. It seems my dream will forever be a dream." Xiao Ruse sighed before showing a slight smile. "Thank you for listening to my story. I haven't talked about this with anyone in my life."
Huyan Lanruo patted her shoulder and smiled. "It's nothing. But I support your dream, little sister. Don't back down so easily, you can do it."
"Haha, thank you." Xiao Ruse smiled, thinking in her heart. 'I really wanted to achieve my dream too but...'
Jason stared at her, reading her like a book, and asked. "So if you can activate your jewels, you think you can achieve your dream?"
"Yes!" Xiao Ruse was puzzled by his question but still nodded her head resolutely.
Jason grinned and said. "Alright then, I'll help you then but in return, you have to accept my genes inside your womb! I think it will be a good deal."
"W-Wha... What?!" Xiao Ruse was stunned staring blankly at the man in front of him. 'He wants me to do what...'
Her face flushed red as veins bulged out on her forehead, she was very close to exploding in anger.
How can a man directly say that to a girl?
It's simply outrageous!
Jason smirked and said. "Ohh, you're not convinced, right? Then let me first awaken your jewel, and then we will make a deal!"
He spoke and put a hand on her back which caught her by surprise.
But before Xiao Ruse could shout, she felt an unprecedented flow of Heavenly Energy rushing inside her body. It was so pure and powerful, that her meridians hurt just by it flowing through them.
Xiao Ruse gritted her teeth to endure but it was quickly followed by a warm current that originated from Jason's palm and it healed her pain.
Xiao Ruse was startled by it and raised her head, only to see Jason's face reflecting in her pupils.
She could feel something moving into the back of her hand and before she realized it, she broke three layers directly and two shiny jewels floated out of her merdians, rotating over the back of her hand.
