After Breaking the Persona, I Reach the Peak of My Life
Chapter 96: Heart-to-Heart

Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Heart-to-Heart

Bi Xia walked out of the kitchen and smiled as she looked at the bustling restaurant.

Many of the diners recognized Bi Xia and knew that this restaurant was owned by her family. Everyone enthusiastically expressed that they would come back often, especially the girls, who said they’d love to visit a place with handsome guys and delicious food. Why not?

Turning her gaze to the large table where Chu Kuang, Meng Chi, and others were sitting, she thought it was a bit unusual. The students from Class H and Class B had just finished a basketball game in the afternoon and were now eating and drinking together.

With a light laugh, she opened a bottle of beer and walked over to the table.

"Brother Kuang, do you need any help?"

"No, just sit down," Bi Xia stopped one of the kids from Class H who was trying to stand up. Standing at the table, she raised her beer with a smile, "I rarely say thank you, but today I want to thank all of you for coming."

"Hahaha, how cheesy!" Chu Kuang laughed and patted Bi Xia on the shoulder, "I’ve always said I admire you as a competitor, so we’re both friends and foes. Class H and Class B wouldn’t have crossed paths if it wasn’t for the rivalry. How could friends not help when one is in trouble?"

"Besides," Chu Kuang touched his nose, "We only helped you to guard the door. To be honest, brother, next time let us do something more exciting. Guarding the door isn’t our style."

"Then next time let you get beaten up," Meng Chi chimed in.

Chu Kuang: ... Damn!

In an instant, everyone burst into laughter. Bi Xia took a sip of beer, fiddling with the necklace on her neck, and half-closed her eyes, teasing Chu Kuang, "Don’t worry, Brother Kuang, next time I’ll give you the most important task."

"What?" Chu Kuang’s eyes gleamed as he looked at Bi Xia.

"Cleaning up the battlefield," Bi Xia pronounced each word slowly.

"...," Chu Kuang twitched his mouth, "Our friendship is over, goodbye."

"Hahaha!" Everyone laughed heartily, clinking beer bottles together and synchronously gulping down the beer without hesitation.

Seeing the scene with the dishes laid out, Xia Shi couldn’t help but look at Bi Xia worriedly, "Seriously, won’t they get drunk? After all, Xiaxia is still a..."

"Mom," Bi Xiaoyuan interrupted Xia Shi’s murmuring, tiptoeing to take the plate from her hands and looked at Xia Shi very seriously, "Since we decided to let brother become our brother, then please trust brother. Because brother knows himself better and understands her true identity better than any of us."

"So, until brother decides to give up this identity, let’s regard her as a man capable of protecting us. I think that’s what brother wants. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be the person we love now, right?"

Although Bi Yuan’s words were somewhat complex, Xia Shi understood his point: stop worrying about Bi Xia behaving like a man just because she’s a girl. Her identity was given by her mother, so it’s not her place to tell Bi Xia how to be a girl.

Because she... had deprived Bi Xia of the right to grow up as a girl since childhood.

Now that Bi Xia has grown strong and intends to restore her female identity, until then, let’s protect her in our own way and make her become stronger without hesitation.

Tears welled up in Xia Shi’s eyes as she looked at Bi Xia, catching her gaze filled with laughter in that moment.

Seeing Bi Xia toss a flirty wink toward her, Xia Shi couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "This silly kid..." She wiped the corner of her teary eyes, feeling embarrassed for not being as perceptive as her youngest son.

Meanwhile, Bi Yuan brought the dishes to the table where Bi Xia was sitting, "This is a treat from mom for all of you."

Chu Kuang and the others blinked, looking at Bi Yuan. Wow, just look at that expressionless face, he’s like a mini version of Bi Xia!

"Bi Xia, he looks just like your brother. You won’t lose him anywhere!" Chu Kuang couldn’t help but reach out to pinch Bi Yuan’s cheek, only to be stopped halfway by a small, white hand.

Bi Xia smiled at him, her starry eyes full of threat, "Since you know he’s my brother, stop messing around."

Chu Kuang sighed regretfully, pulling back his hand, "It’s just because your brother is too cute."

"Liar,"

Bi Xiaoyuan criticized him bluntly, "You just think you’re not as strong as my brother, so you want to bully the mini version to vent your anger!"

"Oh!" Chu Kuang widened his eyes, surprised that Bi Yuan had seen through him. Embarrassed, he stubbornly denied it, "That’s not true. I just think you are adorable."

Bi Xiaoyuan snorted proudly, "Alright, but even if I’m adorable, the only person allowed to pinch my cheeks is my brother!"

Chu Kuang: ...Where did this little brother-obsessed kid come from? Get him out of here!
