555 Finally asking the question (1/2)

Stronger than Reverend Misery Sea?

Shi Xiaobai was stunned but he acted calmly. ”Strength isn't a problem.”

Shi Xiaobai felt he was an authority on the matter. So what if the woman was strong? Could she be stronger than Kali? His strength and Kali's were probably several worlds apart.

When Speechless heard that, he said with a chuckle, ”The woman is twenty-eight this year. She's more than ten years older than me.”

Shi Xiaobai shook his head and said with a laugh, ”Age is even less of a problem.”

Shi Xiaobai felt that he had even more authority on this matter. Kali had claimed to have lived for about ten thousand years. Their age gap was more than ten thousand years apart. If Dawn was the Hero King from three thousand years ago, then they were three thousand years apart as well. Speechless's ten or so years was only making a mountain out of a molehill. It was nothing worth mentioning.

When Speechless saw how confident Shi Xiaobai was, he felt more emboldened. He thought to himself that Shi Xiaobai was not only a love saint, he was also a beast. If age wasn't a problem, then didn't it mean that young loli or mature women were not spared?

Speechless gulped a mouthful of saliva and felt that he had consulted the right person. He continued, ”That woman and I have blood relations. Well, let me be direct. That woman is my mother's younger sister. Which means, she's my...young aunt.”

Shi Xiaobai was dumbfounded. Blood relations? Hey, that was something he had no authority on!

Shi Xiaobai coughed lightly and bit the bullet, saying, ”If it's permitted by the laws of China, it's not...a huge problem. Ahem...”

Speechless said with a laugh, ”Temporarily, China's laws do not permit marriage between close relatives but there will come a day when I'll void that law.”

Shi Xiaobai remained speechless and thought to himself, ”As long as you are happy.”

Speechless suddenly sighed and said, ”That actually isn't a problem. The biggest problem is that woman will not have feelings for me. She has always idolized the Hero King and said publicly that unless she meets a man like the Hero King, she would rather stay alone all her life and not compromise. Therefore, she remained unmarried at the age of twenty-eight, nor has she ever dated. There's not a single scandal. I once believed that by imitating the Hero King, there will be a day I will become a man like the Hero King and that I would have that bit of chance. However, a year ago, I failed to endure it further and confessed my feelings. In the end, she rejected me and told me the truth. The Hero King was just a shield she used. In fact, she hates all men and likes...women.”

Shi Xiaobai was left dumbfounded.

Speechless shrugged and said, ”But even so, I still like her. Am I hopeless?”

Shi Xiaobai fell into a prolonged silence and said stiffly, ”There is no mistake to liking.”

Speechless nodded approvingly and said, ”You are indeed a love saint. You got the gist with a single sentence. She likes women, I like her. No one is at fault. Although I'm unable to change her orientation, that doesn't mean that she can force me to give up. Hence, even if such matters of the heart are incurable, I would not try treating them. However, towards the other girl, I can't ignore her. Be it acceptance or rejection, there is a need to make it clear. The longer it gets dragged out, the deeper the girl will sink. I, Speechless Li, might fall in love with a woman I shouldn't love but I absolutely do not wish to become an incurable male scum. So, what should I do now?”

Speechless widened his eyes as he looked at Shi Xiaobai with a look of anticipation. He was like a tiger cub that was unsure if it should bite down on a lamb as it awaited orders from a big bad wolf.

However, how would Shi Xiaobai know of a solution?

He could not steel his heart to reject the person he should reject.
