Chen Xiao's face had turned completely dark.
If he weren't injured, he would definitely throw the champagne far, far away... the farther the better! Ideally, he'd throw it all the way back to the other side of the ocean, straight back to his home island!!
As the three of them stared at each other...
Bang! Bang!
Someone gently knocked on the door, and a girl stood there with a neat ponytail, a pretty face, wearing a short skirt, a pink short-sleeved T-shirt, and a cute Winnie the Pooh printed on the front.
Ye Xiaonuo, Chen Xiao's former colleague and Officer Xu's daughter, stood timidly at the door. She was carrying a fruit basket and peeking tentatively into the ward.
"Excuse me, is this Chen Xiao's hospital room?"
From her angle, Chen Xiao was blocked by the phoenix's figure. Upon hearing this, the phoenix turned around, and Chen Xiao immediately saw Ye Xiaonuo.
Ye Xiaonuo's face was slightly flushed, exuding the sweet charm of a young girl. When she saw Chen Xiao, her face lit up with joy, but then she looked at the two beautiful women in the room and couldn't help but feel a little silly.
"Who...who is she?" Phoenix glared fiercely at Chen Xiao.
Before Chen Xiao could speak, Champagne, who was standing next to him, was already suppressing a laugh and said in a low voice, "Do you even need to ask? Another one."
Chapter 121 [The Women's War]
Champagne's comment, "yet another one," immediately made Ye Xiaonuo blush. Although she didn't recognize Champagne... it was clear that both girls in the room had close ties with Chen Xiao...
Thinking of Bai Cai, who worked with me at the fast food restaurant, and that stunningly beautiful little girl I saw at the zoo that day…
That damn Xiao Wu, how many girls are still around him?
Ye Xiaonuo felt a sudden itch in her teeth.
Actually, Ye Xiaonuo liked Chen Xiao. When they worked at the fast food restaurant, all her colleagues knew it, and Chen Xiao himself naturally felt it too. Otherwise, why would a girl take good care of you, be affectionate with you, remember your birthday, give you the birthday present you want most, and even be late for work to go home to get the present?
If the boy doesn't notice anything after all this, he must be a fool.
After Chen Xiao left the fast food restaurant, Ye Xiaonuo felt quite lost for a while. She seemed to have a vague idea that a boy like Chen Xiao probably wouldn't belong to a girl like her.
Ye Xiaonuo is a very self-aware girl. She knows that she is slightly pretty—but that's about it.
Ye Xiaonuo has a classification system for women's appearance, which is divided into five categories: the first category is those whose appearance is relatively difficult to identify.
The second category consists of people with ordinary appearances and common faces who would be easily lost in a crowd.
The third type is those who are somewhat pretty or cute, but by the standards of "beauty," they barely qualify. These girls aren't considered stunning beauties; at best, they'd be described as "demure and charming."
The fourth type is the true beauty, the kind who can grace magazine covers. They possess natural beauty combined with cultivated elegance, scoring over 80 points in every aspect—both their figure and appearance are outstanding. These girls typically work in the film and television industry or become top models. Alternatively, they might excel in beauty pageants, consistently placing among the top contenders.
The fifth category is women of breathtaking beauty! Such women are usually called femme fatales or bewitching beauties!
In ancient times, such a woman would undoubtedly be considered so beautiful as to be devastating to a nation! If she were to encounter a foolish ruler, he might light the beacon fires to amuse the feudal lords, or men might be driven to rage for her, leading to tales like "A rider in the dust, a concubine's smile. No one knows it's lychees arriving..." Generally speaking, only beauty capable of captivating a nation could achieve such an effect. But without a doubt, girls of this level of beauty are extremely rare in reality.
Even if you happen to encounter one, she will quickly be snatched away by a man, and... a girl of this beauty is not someone an ordinary man is qualified to possess... even if you do possess her, without sufficient strength to protect her, she will only bring trouble to the man! The saying "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime" means exactly this.
Judging by Ye Xiaonuo's standards... although women are generally reluctant to admit that other women are more attractive than themselves...
Women pay attention to their appearance, while men pay attention to their alcohol tolerance.
Women focus on their weight, while men focus on the duration of their sexual performance.
In both of these aspects, neither men nor women are usually willing to admit defeat easily.
Even though Ye Xiaonuo was unwilling, at this moment, she had met four girls who were related to Chen Xiao.
Cabbage, Ya Ya, and the two girls in the ward in front of me.
Judging from her own criteria for classifying women's appearance into five categories, she, Ye Xiaonuo... was only in the third category, a girl from a modest family.
Of the four girls, Bai Cai could barely be considered fourth-tier, though slightly less so. This was because of her impoverished background; she lacked the means to dress up – as the saying goes, clothes make the man. Bai Cai always wore the most ordinary clothes, couldn't afford cosmetics or skincare products, and even got her hair cut at a roadside salon. Naturally, she fell a little short. However, given her natural beauty, with a little effort in dressing up, she could easily enter fourth tier – a true beauty.
But what else besides cabbage?
Ya Ya, that stunning little beauty, although she's still quite young, is so beautiful that even Ye Xiaonuo, a woman herself, couldn't help but sigh in admiration... And, it seems many men... are attracted to girls with this kind of cute, youthful face and temperament, right? Besides, Ya Ya's appearance is only slightly immature now; given time, once she's grown up and her looks and figure have matured, she'll definitely be considered to be in the fifth tier—the kind of beauty that could topple kingdoms!
As for the two girls in the ward, the one sitting by Chen Xiao's bedside, smiling and saying "another one," is definitely a fourth-tier beauty.
And that other girl with the strange expression was even more extraordinary!
If Ya Ya was merely a potential fifth-tier beauty, a near-femme fatale, then this girl was a living, breathing fifth-tier woman, a bewitching beauty standing right before him! Such a girl seemed destined to be adored by men, to have countless men fight tooth and nail for her! In ancient times, she might even have sparked wars between nations!
Therefore, when it comes to comparing appearances... Ye Xiaonuo was undoubtedly very discouraged and frustrated.
In terms of looks, I've been completely defeated!
His opponents were all one or two levels more attractive than him! Although Chen Xiao might not be the kind of person who coveted beauty, well... everyone has a love for beauty.
Actually, this kind of discouragement... Back at the zoo, Ye Xiaonuo had somewhat resigned herself to her fate—but after returning home and thinking about it carefully, she was truly unwilling to accept it!
So what if you're from a modest family? You might not be as pretty as them, but that doesn't mean you have no chance at all!
Although she is a girl, she has had a stepfather, Officer Xu, who is a policeman, since she was a child. Ye Xiaonuo's personality has also become more boyish, and she is unwilling to give up or admit defeat easily.
Today, taking advantage of her proximity, Ye Xiaonuo learned from Officer Xu that Chen Xiao was injured. She immediately sprang into action, hastily preparing items for visiting the patient and even personally cooking a nutritious soup before rushing to the hospital. Hoping to get there first, she was surprised to find… her anticipated rivals, Bai Cai and Ya Ya, were not there, but instead, two other beautiful girls appeared.
"May I ask who you are?"
Phoenix paid no heed to Champagne's attempts to stir things up, seemingly ignoring comments like "yet another one." Turning to look at Ye Xiaonuo at the door, though her face maintained a polite smile, the intensity and ruthlessness in her eyes began to rise sharply!
Can eye contact spark a flame?
