As Lin Wenwen was observing the surrounding environment, her telephone suddenly started buzzing. She lowered her head and saw the screen showing the word ‘brother’.
Was it the brother of the real owner of her body? Should she answer the call? If she couldn’t get what the brother said, would he detect that something was wrong?
She was hesitating, and the phone kept buzzing. When she gave up on answering the call, the call was ended. However, the phone soon started buzzing again.
Lin Wenwen stared at the telephone and fell into silence.
She thought for a moment and then answered the phone. The girl’s brother would probably be worried if the calls weren’t answered.
“Hello.”
“Xinxin, what took you so long to answer the call?” A clear and refreshing boy’s voice was heard.
Xinxin? Xin-xin? Xingxing? Xing-xing? Was that the name of the real owner of her body?
Lin Wenwen blinked, then found an excuse, “Oh, em, I was in the middle of something, so I missed the call.”
“Oh, where are you now?” The boy quickly replied to her, “I wasn’t watching you for a second and then you’re gone. Stay wherever you are. Aren’t you aware that you’re terrible with directions? I might not be able to find you if you’re walking without knowing the way.”
The brother sounded very worried about the girl. He was probably used to looking after his sister like an adult looking after a child.
“I-I’m at a shoe store in front of Paradise Coffee,” Lin Wenwen looked around and saw a coffee house that had a large signboard, so she told that to the boy.
“Stay there! How did you get there? We’re coming to you right now,” The boy immediately ordered her not to move, then ended the call.
We? It sounded like he was not alone.
Lin Wenwen looked at the phone screen while thinking. She observed herself through the screen, then raised a hand and flipped her bangs.
She looked carefully and found that the girl was actually not ugly. She had pretty eyes and nose and mouth. However, her chubby cheeks made them look smaller than they really were. Her eyes could be large if she open them as widely as she could.
When Dong Lijia found his chubby sister, he saw her looking into her phone screen and squeezing her eyes. He had no idea what she was doing.
“I see her! Over there!” Hsaid to the others, then walked toward Lin Wenwen. “Xinxin, over here!”
Hearing that voice which she had heard just now through the phone, Lin Wenwen immediately raised her head to look at its owner and saw a few pretty boys and girls coming at her. They were so good-looking that she even felt being dazzled.
Damn! Standing together with those people, she could look really like a weird being with her current body.
She watched the two boys and two girls walk up to herself speechlessly. One of them was about six-feet tall, slim, straight, and handsome. The boy waved at her.
“Why are you staring at us? Let’s go! Don’t just stand there.” A well-dressed girl who had a long ponytail said to Lin Wenwen with a smile.
While moving slowly toward those people, Lin Wenwen quietly observed their expressions. Apart from her brother was another boy. He was expressionless and much more handsome than her brother. He seemed over six feet tall strong.
He could be the most good-looking boy in the school!
She then turned to the two girls. One of them had a ponytail while the other had long hair hanging loosely over her shoulders. Both of them wore light make-up, having delicate faces and nice body shapes. They were both over five feet and five inches, wearing ten-centimeter heels.
So pretty!
Those pretty boys and girls were so pleasant to the eyes. The people nearby had been turning to look at them from time to time. Clearly, that group of young people was very eye-catching.
However, Lin Wenwen sneered in her head once she gave a glance at the two girls in the eyes.
There was a distance between herself and the two girls, but still, she could clearly feel the disdain in their eyes. They should at least try to hide it.
“Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you to wait for us on the square? Here, your drink,” The brother walked to Lin Wenwen with a cup of warm drink. He was complaining, but his behavior clearly stated how nice he was to his little sister.
“Yeah, it’s so hot here. The sun is blinding me. Xinxin, aren’t you feeling hot?” The long-haired girl put her slim and fair hand above her eyes and said to Lin Wenwen.
Lin Wenwen looked at the girl without saying anything. She didn’t know about the personality of the real owner of her body yet. Would she smile? Was she outgoing or gloomy?
If she acted unlike the real owner of her body, at least her brother would notice.
Therefore, Lin Wenwen decided not to say anything.
Before she answered the question, her brother answered it for her, “It must be so hot. Xinxin is afraid of the heat the most.”
After saying that, he gave Lin Wenwen a glance with confusion and said, “Don’t you hate the heat? Why did you come here?”
It was July. The noontime could be really hot.
How should she explain that? It was certain weird for someone who couldn’t stand the heat to come all the way right under the sun.
Lin Wenwen looked at him calmly while trying to come up with a good reason.
She looked around. She was in a commercial street, and before her was a commercial plaza. She assumed that the group of people were out there shopping.
“Oh, I was…”
Before she finished, her brother interrupted her, “Are you here to buy shoes? I remembered you say that you wanted heels. Your body is still growing, so you can’t wear heels! Why don’t you listen to me?”
Lin Wenwen silently turned and glanced at the shoe store beside her. The store was selling some fashionable shoes indeed. Her brother had saved her from the difficult situation, so she followed his words.
“Because I’m short…” She murmured, then slightly lowered her head, seeming sad.
“Alright Lijia, Xinxin just wants to be pretty. Is it wrong for girls to want to be pretty?” The girl with a ponytail said to Dong Lijia with a smile.
Lin Wenwen gave her a grateful smile, then turned to look at Dong Lijia. At the same time, she observed the girl with a pony-tail through the corners of her eyes and saw her exchange glances with the other girl while the boys couldn’t see them.
“Alright. Don’t always put strange thoughts into my sister’s head. She has just turned seventeen. Wearing heels can affect the development of her bones.” Hearing the girl talk for his sister, Dong Lijia instantly gave her a glance with discontentment.
Having finished talking, he held his sister’s hand as he turned and walked toward the plaza.
