It's said that Pei Zhoudu got the nickname "prettier than a flower" because he was so delicate and frail that he could barely take a step without nearly collapsing.
That is, until someone saw him take on three people in a dark alley one day, without breaking a sweat.
With someone else's blood on his hands, Pei Zhoudu strolled to the alley entrance, eyes lowered. "Nongnong, my hand hurts."
He wasn't putting on a show, but he looked so pitiful.
The girl at the entrance, dressed in a pretty little skirt, carefully wiped the blood from his hand with a handkerchief, a touch of anger on her face.
The battered man pointed at Pei Zhoudu and cursed, "You fucking dare hit me?!"
The next second, the girl, who rarely ever raised her voice, glared at him. "I hit you because I hit you! Did I need to pick a special day for it?!"
"My hand even hurts from hitting you!" Then, remembering something, she cursed furiously, "Idiot!"
Pei Zhoudu couldn't help laughing. "Hey, sweetheart, he's not worth it."
"What else have you learned?" Pei Zhoudu lightly scratched the palm of Shu Nong's hand with his fingertip. "Try insulting me a couple of times first."
The not-worth-it punching bag: "???"
[Bonus Scene]
One day, Shu Nong casually picked up a wood carving Pei Zhoudu had gone to great lengths to find.
His buddy was stunned. "You begged me not to touch it back then, saying your little wife wouldn't let anyone near it. How come she can play with it whenever she wants?!"
"Don't compare yourself to her." Pei Zhoudu had no heart, and didn't even blink as he drawled, "My sweetheart can play with whatever she wants."
Then he gave a lazy laugh and added, "She can even play with me."
Buddy: ... You fucking!
