The Two Hundred and Eighty Pound Fat Girl and Her Five Husbands-Chapter 16: Go To See Ruoqiu in the Middle of the Night
Chapter 16
But what could she do if Ruo Qiu didn't accept her? If he didn't accept her, would she have to gain weight until she became a 300-pound meatball that could only roll around?
Lin Zaozao squeezed the fat on her belly again, silently cursing the transmigration system another ten thousand times in her heart.
Damn, why was her transmigration so miserable?
Why didn't all this fat go to her five-year husband Ruo Qiu instead? It would be more fair if they each had some. Not only would she become better looking, but her five husbands wouldn't be too fat either!
Bringing her wandering thoughts back, Lin Zaozao could only accept reality.
A late night part-time worker was the most pitiful transmigrator in history.
Oh well, she was just going to interact with Ruo Qiu a little, not do anything intimate. Even if she was willing, that foxy Ruo Qiu would not agree!
Although she said this, when Lin Zaozao thought of Ruo Qiu's bewitching fox-like face, she couldn't help but let her mind wander... Ah! No, she meant she wanted to transfer his illness away.
Transferring illness required intimate skin contact! She didn't like the task the system had suddenly assigned her.
But now, as Lin Zaozao thought of the unimaginably handsome Ruo Qiu, she felt the system had tilted the scales of fairness in her favor this time.
Thinking this, Lin Zaozao groped her way in the dark toward Ruo Qiu's room.
Hee hee hee!
Little beauty, here she comes!
And Ruo Qiu, hidden in the shadows, had seen Lin Zaozao's lewd expression clearly.
The poison in his body was making him convulse in pain. His lifelong pride prevented him from uttering any agonized cries, no matter how much pain he was in.
Just as he was about to suffocate from the pain, he suddenly noticed movement in Lin Zaozao's room. What was that fat woman doing up so late at night?
So he endured the stabbing pain and swiftly hid himself. Peering out, he saw Lin Zaozao rubbing her hands as a lustful smile spread across her vulgarly obscene face.
As Ruo Qiu wondered what Lin Zaozao was planning to do standing giggling so disgustingly outside his door so late at night, he saw her grope her way toward his room in the darkness.
Remembering Ye Yi's instructions to probe Lin Zaozao's true identity, Ruo Qiu leapt back through his window and pretended to be asleep in bed.
He was rather curious what this ugly woman thought she was doing sneaking into his room in the dead of night.
Lin Zaozao arrived at Ruo Qiu's door and knocked lightly. "Ruo Qiu, are you asleep?" she whispered, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
Of course, even if Ruo Qiu were deaf, any normal person would struggle to hear her voice at that volume.
Clearly, Lin Zaozao hadn't considered this point. Or rather, she had, but consciously ignored it.
"Ruo Qiu, if you don't answer, I'll take that to mean you consent to me coming in."
Having said this, Lin Zaozao gently pushed Ruo Qiu's door. To her surprise, it swung open easily with just a nudge.
Hee hee hee! Ruo Qiu must have left his door unlocked at night deliberately to wait for her to go in!
Why else would he not lock it?
Lin Zaozao arrogantly assumed to herself.
Pushing the door open, she was shocked to see an oil lamp still burning inside Ruo Qiu's room. In ancient rural villages, only rich households could afford oil lamps.
She wouldn't have imagined that while she, the lady of the household, was starving, there would be an oil lamp burning wastefully in Ruo Qiu's room. Most unbelievably, he had fallen asleep without putting it out!
Truly, what a waste, Lin Zaozao unconsciously criticized to herself.
But when the lamplight illuminated Ruo Qiu's enchantingly beautiful, bewitching fox-like face, she felt it was rather nice to have a lamp burning in Ruo Qiu's room!
Otherwise, where else could she get such a stroke of good fortune and feast her eyes on such a handsome man so late at night?
Thinking this, Lin Zaozao tentatively poked the arm Ruo Qiu had left outside the blanket.
"Ruo Qiu, are you really asleep?"
Ruo Qiu felt Lin Zaozao poke his arm lightly several times but continued pretending to be sound asleep without reacting.
He was rather curious what Lin Zaozao had come to do sneaking into his room so late at night.
After poking him a dozen times without response, Lin Zaozao concluded that Ruo Qiu must be sleeping deeply tonight.
Well, if he wasn't waking up, it was her turn to take the stage.
So Lin Zaozao unabashedly grasped Ruo Qiu's hand and began scrutinizing it.
Ruo Qiu must have lived quite comfortably before! Otherwise, how could his hands be so well maintained and soft-skinned? On top of that, his fair, delicate, slender hands with shapely knuckles were clearly those of a young master.
Still unsatisfied, Lin Zaozao placed her own hand next to Ruo Qiu's for comparison - one fat, one slender; one huge, one small; one a masterpiece from the Goddess Nüwa, the other as ugly as a steamed bun.
Ah! It really was infuriating how some people were so superior while others so inferior!
Why was Ruo Qiu so handsome when he was just a man, while she, a woman, was ugly as a monster?
Heaving a soft sigh, Lin Zaozao channeled the illnesses she had transferred from Ruo Qiu into marrow-cleansing fluid and beauty fluid.
That blasted system limited her to just three drops of marrow-cleansing fluid and beauty fluid a day! If she could have more, she would shamelessly cling to these five handsome husbands of hers day and night
Once they were cured, she, Lin Zaozao, could be restored to normal too.
Not only would she become slim, with the help of beauty fluid, she could also transform into a peerless beauty!
If she worked hard, she could earn money to support the family herself. But if she wanted to live leisurely instead, she could rely on her own beauty to marry a few rich husbands and live quite comfortably too!
When that time came, she and her current five husbands could go their own separate ways, back to their own families. Wouldn't that be nice too?
Bringing her wandering thoughts back again, Lin Zaozao bent down to scrutinize Ruo Qiu's face up close in the flickering lamplight.
To be honest, although she already knew Ruo Qiu was good-looking, seeing him in the wavering glow resembling a celestial immortal in an artwork still took her breath away.
He really was too much of a feast for the eyes.
Anyway, since Ruo Qiu was one of her husbands, why not just take him by force tonight?
Even if she couldn't manage that, at least stealing a kiss...?
Just as Lin Zaozao was letting her thoughts run wild staring at Ruo Qiu's face, Ruo Qiu, who had been pretending to sleep all along, deliberately rolled over.
He couldn't keep still indefinitely! Under Lin Zaozao's wolf-like gaze, he couldn't keep up the act any longer.
What was this ugly woman thinking, sneaking into his room in the dead of night just to ogle him and his hand, staring lasciviously at his face? Did she think...
Although he knew his looks were above average, surely he wasn't so handsome that this ugly woman would sneak admiring glances at him late at night!
Just as Ruo Qiu was silently criticizing to himself, the emboldened yet timid Lin Zaozao saw Ruo Qiu about to wake up and immediately fled his room in terror.
Due to her immense weight, her hasty escape created loud "thud thud thud" noises with each step that would be clearly audible to anyone without hearing impairment.
Of course, real deaf people like Ruo Qiu wouldn't hear anything.
Feeling rather guilty, Lin Zaozao hurried outside and quickly drank today's allotment of three drops of marrow-cleansing fluid and beauty fluid. Also remembering the system's instruction for her to lose 5 jin (2.5kg) of fat, she gave her chubby belly an appraising squeeze, unable to stop her mind from wandering crookedly again...
