Competing with me, you’re doomed (6)
W-what?
This kid is just too unlikable! What kind of words are these? They’re so hurtful to one’s self-esteem…
“Hmph, you brat, even if all the men in this world were to die, I would never marry you, this self-centered, petty, and arrogant little brat!” I blurted out in anger.
“A month later, Uncle Steward finally returned, bringing with him a girl about my age. She had rosy lips and white teeth, with a pair of sparkling big eyes. Her demeanor already hinted at her future beauty – she would definitely grow up to be a stunning beauty!
Knowing he was coming back, I had been waiting early at the gate of Xiliu Castle. As soon as Uncle Steward saw me, his eyes crinkled with a smile. He led the beautiful girl straight to me, just as he had done when he first brought me here.

I couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat for her, but as they say: softness can overcome hardness. Maybe this little girl could indeed turn hard steel into something soft and pliable…
Enthusiastically, I took her little hand and said, “My name is Fei Xin Ran. Can I call you Xiao’er, little sister?”
The little girl wasn’t shy at all, holding my hand back and sweetly smiling, “Then I’ll call you Sister Xin’er!”
Such a spirited girl – who wouldn’t like her?
