VOLUME 7 CHAPTER 28: DON’T TELL ME THIS IS MY ARRIVAL AT JING STATE (3)

Liu Bei POV

“Blood brother!!!!!!”

I seemed to hear a somewhat crazy-sounding voice call out from afar. I walked out onto the deck as did everyone else.

In the distance, there were a small group of people gathered at the sh.o.r.e.

“Xuan De, what was that?” Feng Xian asked first.

“What’s ‘bao mi’ ahhhhh~~” Wen Yuan asked as she yawned.

“It means maize (yu mi).” Zhou Cang said as she bit furiously into a stick of maize.

(TL: Liu Biao calls Liu Bei 胞弟 or ‘bao di’ which is used when referring specifically to a blood brother. Wen Yuan asks what is 苞米, while Zhou Cang, who is an idiot, says it is 玉米.)

“Big brother, could that person be…” Yun Chang asked as she came up to me. Looks like her hairpin isn’t fixed properly yet.

“I know what you want to say… But apart from him, it can’t be anyone else.” I nodded, but shook my head inside my heart. I never knew Liu Biao would be such a weirdo, and felt embarra.s.sed at his behaviour.

I turned around, and happened to meet eyes with Zhang Zhao who stood some ways away. After we held each others’ gaze for a few seconds, she sneered at me and turned away to leave.

Did Zhang Zhao predict that something like this would happen? No wonder she told me all that.

“Blood brother!!!!!!!” The voice continued unabated.

I was beginning to really judge this Liu Biao person.

“Xuan De, what are you doing?”

“Ouch!”

Zi Long came over and elbowed my back.

“He’s waving at and calling out to you so the least you could do is reply him. Don’t forget that we’re the guests here. How could you not understand something so simple?” Zi Long admonished me. I know what I ought to do, but whether I want to or not is another matter altogether.

It was honestly a little silly to be doing so.

“Oi~~~~ h.e.l.lo!”

“Oi!!! Have you prepared food!!!”

“… h.e.l.lo everyone~~~”

Just then, I saw that some people nearby had begun to reply. I looked over, and saw that it was the harebrained Guan Ping and Zhou Cang, as well as Mi Zhen and the rest.
