Absolute Zone Zero: I survive in Liufen Street

Chapter 126: Youthful Sadness (Daily Life)

"Ah~"

"Ah~"

"Oh~~~"

"Xiaobai, could you please stop sighing while stroking my tail?" Seth turned helplessly and said to Baiyu, who was holding his big, furry tail in his arms and using his back as a cushion. "You keep sighing, but you refuse to tell me what difficulties you've encountered. It makes me want to sigh too."

"I...ah~" Bai Yu opened his mouth and couldn't help but sigh again. "Life is not easy, living is not easy, and living is not easy."

“What kind of middle-aged uncle’s statement is this?

"Xiaobai, you've been daydreaming a lot lately. What's bothering you? Tell me and I'll help you find a solution." Seth wrapped his tail around Bai Yu's waist, pulled him in front of him, looked into his eyes, and said very seriously.

"Fufu, have you been distracted in class again, secretly reading comic books?!"

"Poof! Cough cough! Cough cough!!" Fu Fu, who was being surrounded by girls and fed snacks, was frightened by Bai Yu's sudden questioning and started choking and coughing.

"Oh! Fufu! Are you okay?"

"Hurry up! Drink some water and relax."

"Fufu, drink slowly. Who has a tissue? Give it to Fufu to wipe her face."

The girls hurriedly patted Fu Fu's back to help her calm down, gave her water and wiped her face. A group of cute and beautiful young ladies like flowers spoke to Fu Fu in soft voices.

The male students watching from the side wished they could take her place, their faces looking sour as if they had eaten a raw lemon.

"No, no!"

Well, I was stuck on my homework and didn't notice Xiaobai's situation. Don't blame him.

"Oh? So that romance comic book 'Goodbye, My Prince' under the bed isn't yours anymore?

I'll give it away later, is that okay with you?!"

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. (っ╥╯﹏╰╥c)

Please don't give my comic books away QAQ.

I borrowed it and need to return it to the older sisters in my class.

"Oh."

『嘤QAQ』

"Hey, Fufu, why are you crying? Did you choke on your nose?"

“Don’t cry, don’t cry!

Honey, let's not eat this dry snack. Let's try the meatballs that my sister brought for lunch today.

Fufu opened her mouth, ah~~"

"Ahhh~ great!" Fu Fu's eyes were filled with tears. She turned her grief and anger into appetite and accepted everything the girls fed her.

"It's so lively over there. Fu Fu is really popular." Seth chewed his bread and said to Bai Yu with some emotion: "I never realized it when we were training together before. It turns out that the girls in the class can be so gentle.

Our squad leader’s beatings during training were very painful, and many boys had been beaten to tears by her.

But when she spoke to Fufu, she always choked. When I first saw her, I thought she had a sore throat.

"...In terms of social skills, Fu Fu is indeed gifted." Bai Yu, a homebody who doesn't like socializing and is inexplicably popular with children, doesn't envy Fu Fu, who is the center of attention among the girls.

His recent social energy has been exhausted on the group of familiar and outgoing community leaders, the Sons of Calydon.

Baiyu rubbed his cheek against Seth's fluffy tail, relying on the fur to slowly restore his power.

"Xiaobai, it's itchy. Don't bury your face in it." Seth shook his ears, and the feeling of air blowing on his tail gave him goose bumps. "Okay, I've let you touch my tail, so tell the truth.

What difficulties have you encountered recently?"

"Hmm... nothing much. Just..."

Images began to surface in Bai Yu's mind: the kind smile on the face of Ms. Jian, whom he had cheated; the scene where Bai Zhi, nearly having his motorcycle confiscated by traffic police because he didn't have a driver's license, was dejectedly scolded; the scene where Warren went out and was brought back in tattered condition by someone, crying, and that person was filled with gratitude. The urban legend of "Rope Net," the "Hollow Guide," and the new Bangbu form...

"...Live and be strong." Bai Yu had a hopeless expression on his face and gave Seth a vicissitudes and tired smile.

"Ah? Why does your smile seem more vicissitudes than my dad's now?" Seth rubbed Bai Yu's head, trying to recall the look on his face when his brother comforted him. He pretended to be reliable and said in a gentle tone: "No matter what happens, you are not alone. You don't have to carry everything by yourself.

Talk to me and we’ll figure it out together.”

"Pfft~Hahahaha!" Bai Yu didn't think Seth was mature after hearing this, but laughed so hard that he fell over. "Seth, who did you learn this from?

It's so strange for Seth to say such things!

Not at all like your own character, Seth."

"Is it really that funny!?" Seth's cheeks gradually turned red. He angrily pulled his tail back from Baiyu's arms, refusing to let Baiyu, who was making fun of him, touch it anymore.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." Bai Yu immediately corrected his attitude and apologized to Seth. He coaxed the cat for a long time before holding the tail back in his arms.

“There wasn’t any trouble actually.

I just feel that I was protected too well in the past.

However, now that it is my turn to be the "protector", I realize how difficult it is to take care of the people around me.

So I felt a little emotional for a moment."

"Xiaobai, you are also amazing!" Seth patted Bai Yu's shoulder and said to him sincerely: "Not everyone can take care of themselves and their sister at Xiaobai's age.

At least I can't do that. To this day, I'm still just a child in the eyes of my parents and brother. But you already have to support a family.

It’s really amazing!”

"Thank you for the compliment.

But it’s not that great of me, I just do it to survive.

I used to be the one who was taken care of. I didn’t know how to do anything and just muddled through every day.”

"...Hey, can I ask you something about your past, Xiaobai?" Seth carefully observed Bai Yu's expression, fearing that he would feel offended or touch upon Bai Yu's sad past. "Of course! If you don't want to talk about it, Xiaobai, then just pretend I never asked. Don't force yourself!

I just want to get to know you better, Xiaobai."

"Haha~

Don't be so cautious, Seth. I understand you're concerned about me.

Actually, there is nothing that cannot be said.

Seth, don't look at me as poor as I am now. But I used to have everything I wanted, and I lived a life without having to worry about anything.

"Let me think...where should I start talking about the past?" Bai Yu's hands traced the soft hair on his tail. His eyes became hazy and dazed.

“My life used to be very simple and boring.

Because most of the time, I stay alone in my room..."

Small Theater

Dang Dang Dang——

It’s story time for Xiaobai.

Bai Yu: A long, long time ago...

Audience member Seth: (Serious)
