17 Playful Fighting (1/2)

”Why should I tell you my secrets? I have nothing to gain.” Wuxing frowned and said, knowing that he was busted. He actually didn't think her eyes would be this sharp, seeing right through him from the start. But in the end, he was also partially to blame. He didn't want to bleed out, so he might have overused his new ability a little bit.

Dongmei traced her finger gently on his body up to his lips while whispering seductively, ”Well, it is your choice. I won't force you. But I can make your life here very pleasurable…” before she held his chin and added with a evil grin, ”But also very miserable if I want to.”

'Sigh, this demoness… Well, even if I tell her part of the truth, Li Wuxing will disappear forever after I leave from here.' Wuxing thought, not sure if he should be happy from their meeting.

”I…” Just as Wuxing started talking, the metal watch on Dongmei's hand suddenly beeped twice and it started moving, shifting its parts as if transforming into something.

”Damn, not now…” Dongmei cursed seeing what was happening and quickly put the bandage, she pulled away from Wuxing's wound earlier, back on before fixing her hair and wearing her doctor suit properly, buttoned up.

”Behave like you are in pain!” She called out right when the watch finally transformed into something Wuxing has never seen. It looked like a metal spider the size of a watch with few cameras attached to it instead of its eyes.

”Dongmei~ sweetheart! How are you doing?” Just then, a mature female voice came out of the spider and soon a small hologram or a lady appeared out of it. The lady was so lifelike as if she was a small human. One wouldn't notice the difference between human and the hologram.

He knew that the tech industry was reaching its peak right now, with many new technologies coming out thanks to the discovery of Ethernum, but he didn't expect to see such an advanced projector.

”Mom! I'm working right now!” Dongmei showed herself to the camera and complained cutely. There was even a trace of pink showing up on her cheeks.

”Hehe, I know, I know. My great daughter is a doctor now. But you have to leave some time for your mommy too, right? I miss my baby every day.” Dongmei's mom giggled, talking with love in her voice. She looked like an older version of Dongmei which made Wuxing understand from who she inherited all of her genes.

”Mom… I'm with a patient right now! I need to operate on him soon.” Dongmei rolled her eyes, acting as if she was extremely embarrassed. It was interesting for Wuxing to see her like that, but he knew she was just pretending.

”Oh! Where is he?” Dongmei's mother exclaimed and moved with the cameras to find Wuxing. Seeing that, Dongmei quickly punched his ribs, making him cry out in pain.

”Oh, what a poor gentleman. Don't worry Sir, my daughter will help you. Okay sweetie, then I won't trouble you anymore. You can continue with your work.” The miniature mom exclaimed one again seeing Wuxing laying in pain and understood the seriousness of the situation.

Dongmei smiled with relief behind her mother's back and said, ”Goodbye!” before reaching out for the call ending button.

Before she did so, her mother added, ”Wait, I almost forgot. Your's and your father's birthday is in three months. I hope you can come back home for the party. It's your twenty-fifth birthday after all. Maybe you will be able to finally meet a fine man for yourself…”

”I will try to fit it into my schedule…” Hearing her, Dongmei tried to get rid of her quickly, but her mother cut her off crying out, ”No! Promise me you will come! You were absent last year. You have to come this year!”

”Tsk, fine… I will come.” Seeing her mom's angry face, Dongmei had no choice but to agree unwillingly.

”Okay~! Love you!” With Dongmei agreement, her mom turned back to her lovable attitude and parted on her own.

”Now I understand from where did you inherit your character…” Wuxing commented when the spider turned back into a watch and the room turned silent.

”You… Do you want to die?” Dongmei glared angrily at him, with all the cuteness from before gone.
