Book 3: Chapter 20: What Is a Girlfriend? Is It as Good as Points?
Who had not seen a pretty girl before? Current makeup techniques could pull a girl from a six to a nine. That was why, even though Jeanne d’Arc and Sirin looked pretty, they did not attract ridiculous levels of attention.
However, it was different for Raven. She wore a traditional maid outfit, not the revealing type typically seen in Japanese comics. Chen Heng felt those maid outfits were not true maid outfits, or rather, they were not proper ones. What Raven wore was the truly authentic and traditional maid outfit, the kind with the skirt extending all the way to the ankles rather than a miniskirt.
Maids were a man’s romance. How could that not attract attention?
As a result, all the people here turned their heads back for a second look.
When Chen Heng previously went out with Mo Qingtong, he had asked Raven why she didn’t change out of her maid outfit. Raven’s reply was that the uniform was the bottom line of a maid; it could never be compromised.
However, wearing a maid outfit to an amusement park had its inconveniences, like when riding certain attractions.
When everyone was riding the Frisbee, Raven watched from below, as her skirt was too bulky. So…
[TL Note: Here is a Wikipedia link on the Frisbee ride: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frisbee_(ride).]
After having wild fun for three hours, Chen Heng’s group ate lunch at a KFC in the amusement park.
“How tiring! However, that was very fun. Elder Brother, thank you for bringing me here. Here, Elder Brother, have a drink!” Sirin collected everyone’s cola from the counter. Chen Heng had already paid. He had intended to wait there alone, but Sirin had insisted on helping her elder brother and gone over.
Since Sirin wanted to be filial, Chen Heng had to agree. Wait, filial?
“Wait awhile. The food we ordered will take some time to arrive. Let’s rest for a while first. After we eat, we can finish with a visit to the haunted house, then go to the water park.”
Chen Heng did not mention resting after eating. After all, everyone here was not ordinary. Ah, no, none of them was a mundane person.
Jeanne d’Arc was a Heroic Spirit with A-ranked strength and A-ranked agility. This little bit of physical activity would not tire her.
As a perfect maid and Mo Qingtong’s bodyguard, Raven was also a cultivation expert in the Nascent Soul Realm, at least. Furthermore, she seemed to be an ability user too. That was why the Mo Clan chose her to be Mo Qingtong’s personal maid. It would be strange if she got tired.
Although Sirin had cultivated for only a few days, cultivation provided an obvious physical boost compared to mundane humans, which greatly increased her strength. Furthermore, Chen Heng had been using his gravity ability to lessen the burden on her.
Chen Heng required no explanation.
“Although the amusement park was fun, I still look forward to the water park in the afternoon. My swimsuit…my awesome swimsuit!” Jeanne d’Arc kept bringing up her anticipation for the water park.
If Jeanne d’Arc did not mention it, it might have been fine. However, her mentioning it tempted Chen Heng to ridicule her taste in swimwear.
“Alright. Just wait awhile. We only have the haunted house left in the amusement park. After that, we can head to the water park.”
“Ah! The water park. Little Heng, are you looking forward to seeing me wear a swimsuit?” Raven teased.
“I devoutly look forward to Elder Sister Raven’s swimsuit. After all, Elder Sister Raven has an impressive figure,” Chen Heng teased back.
“Oh? Speaking of which, what kind of girl does Little Heng like?” After busying herself with observing Chen Heng for the entire day, she decided to obtain information through a more direct method: point-blank interrogation.
“What kind of girl do I like?” Chen Heng held his chin and thought about it seriously. After all, he was already 18 and would go to university soon. It would be time to look for a girlfriend after starting university.
Now, it was not just Raven. Even Sirin and Jeanne d’Arc perked up their ears to listen.
“First, she must have a decent character. At least she should not come to bother me when I’m feeling frustrated; even better if she is gentle and considerate.” Chen Heng did not like girls who randomly threw tantrums.
Given Chen Heng’s circumstances—he had a house and money and was even a hidden powerhouse—it should not be a problem for him to have higher expectations for his prospective partner, right?
“What about looks? Do you have any requirements for looks?” Raven questioned further as she wrote something in her notebook.
“Elder Sister Raven, what are you writing?” Raven’s note-taking caught Chen Heng’s attention and even rattled him somewhat.
“Don’t worry about that. Just answer the question.”
“Oh. I don’t have high expectations for looks. However, it should at least match my excellent appearance.” Chen Heng even praised himself a bit, but that provoked some dissatisfaction in Raven.
“Answer properly. Let’s use an example. How about my young miss or Jeanne d’Arc?”
“Ah! This… Honestly speaking, their looks already exceed my expectations. After all, both Qingtong and Jeanne d’Arc are rare beauties.”
Jeanne d’Arc felt happy in her heart when she heard Chen Heng praise her, although she did not show it.
“Very good. What about family background?”
“I have no expectations for family background. After all, her wealth does not matter to me. However, it would be good if her family did not have frustrating relatives or friends; that would affect our relationship.”
“Would you prefer your future girlfriend to be someone you already know or someone who suddenly appeared in your life?”
“A childhood friend vs. a new acquaintance? However, Mo Qingtong is the only one I grew up with! Feelings depend on fate, not the length of knowing each other.”
“What about bust size?”
“Bu…bust size? That blatant?”
“Answer immediately!” Raven’s stern tone was slightly unnerving.
How to put it… Chen Heng saw Raven as an extremely outstanding elder sister.
“Uh…I have no expectations of that—as long as her chest is not flat. Breasts that are not flat can bring peace to the world. If the breasts are flat, how could they gather support? I’m not picky.”
“Truly perverted words.” Raven completely ignored who asked the question in the first place.
“Be reasonable. Elder Sister Raven, your question was problematic, to begin with.”
“Then what do you think about maids?”
“Maids? That’s a man’s romance!”
“Number 10010, your order is ready. Please come to the counter to collect it.” Someone at the counter called out Chen Heng’s order number when Raven wanted to ask further.
“Our lunch is ready. I’ll go pick it up.”
“Wait… Never mind. Go on, then. That should be enough.”
“Phew! I finally escaped. Elder Sister Raven is not planning to match me with Mo Qingtong, right?” Chen Heng was not a fool; Raven’s intention was very obvious. However, he did not want to start dating so early. He wanted to enjoy some more freedom first.
What is a girlfriend? Is it better than growing strong? Rather than going on a date, wouldn’t completing missions be better?
