Demi-human Girls Completion Manual-Chapter 999 - 58: Master Tao (3)

"Still dare to call me a trivial fish!?"

"Ah, trivial fish! Trivial fish! Wuwuwu!"

"Pa!"

Tangze Asuka, angrily, slapped her again, causing her to drop her fan, and she pitifully cried out, with her legs flailing as if swimming in water.

"You rude little brat, say! Was it wrong?!"

The Master Tao in her arms pitifully turned to look at her, with two streams of shimmering teardrops on his delicate and cute face, making him seem incredibly adorable at first glance.

Tangze noticed her lips moving slightly, sensing that another "trivial fish" was about to escape her mouth, so she raised her right hand threateningly, frightening her into quickly shaking her head and saying,

"Wrong! Wrong! I won’t call you trivial fish anymore, wuwuwu!"

"You little brat..."

Just as Tangze Asuka was about to lower her right hand with a triumphant smile, the Master Tao suddenly seemed to have discovered a flaw, and with a sudden kick, struggled fiercely, making Tangze Asuka lose her balance and topple to one side with him.

"Plop!"

With two splashes, Tangze Asuka and the little "Fake Peach Prince" fell together into the not-so-deep creek, stirring the scattered peach blossoms at the creek’s bottom, frightening the distant big fish into quickly swishing their tails to flee.

"Tangze?!"

Ah, my head hurts, this little brat...

Fortunately, I wore swimwear, even if I fell into the water...

But in the next second, Fischer’s voice suddenly came from not far inside the peach blossom forest, Tangze Asuka slightly startled and turned to look, seeing Fischer with a cold face following the maid with a white cloth on her head rushing towards them.

At the sight of Fischer, Tangze Asuka’s face first flushed red then turned white, and she hurriedly covered her chest, which was slightly exposed by the swimwear, with a small voice saying "Mr. Fischer."

Fischer, arriving, was also stunned, having started searching around for Tangze Asuka right after discovering her disappearance. He searched for an hour without seeing her. He and Hooked kiss, nearly turned over this peach blossom forest, when the maid who previously led the way returned, saying she’d bring Fischer over to find her after hearing she was missing.

"An hour?! I... I was only out for less than ten minutes?"

"...Let’s talk later, what are you wearing, where did it come from?"

"Ah! This... this!"

Tangze Asuka’s face turned instantly red, she pressed harder against her chest, her eyes spinning in circles like mosquito coils, stammering unable to explain clearly,

"This is our... old school’s swimsuit, given by the little brat, she said she wanted me to help her catch fish, but her mouth was so poisonous, always calling me trivial fish... Oh right, that little brat!"

Tangze Asuka quickly looked in front of her, along with Fischer, seeing the pitiful little girl sitting in the creek, all her delicate clothes soaked through.

"Little brat?"

Fischer turned to look, seeing the maid unaffected by the little girl’s fall into the water, seeming to not mind at all.

She merely kneeled by the creek, placed her hands on her lap, and lowered her head to speak to the little girl sitting in the water,

"Master Tao, I thought you went to discuss matters with the other Dukes. Not seeing you here this morning was truly apologetic, allowing those invited to offend you..."

With these words, Tangze Asuka instantly felt something was wrong, she pursed her lips and swallowed, her heart beating slightly faster.

Amitabha Buddha, oh dear Buddha, are you serious?

I... this little brat really is...

In Tangze Asuka’s astonished glance, the girl who had been spanked and thrown into the river slowly stood up, looking at Tangze Asuka in fear, her expression turning wild, she motioned to the maid beside her.

The maid hesitated for a moment, seemingly realizing something, hurriedly picked up the dropped fan and handed it to the Master Tao still standing in the water.

Master Tao took the fan but didn’t unfold it, instead standing akimbo and laughed disdainfully,

"You trivial fish, dare to defy your superior, prepare to meet your doom... achoo!"

Before she finished speaking, she sneezed, lost her balance, and sat back into the cold creek again, the splash stunned Fischer and Tangze Asuka on the spot.

"Pfft!"

Tangze Asuka couldn’t help but be the first to laugh out loud, making Master Tao angry and start cursing,

"Why are you laughing, trivial fish, it’s maddening!"

"Master Tao... have you not finished? The Fourteenth Rank people have all arrived, official business needs attending."

The maid softly reminded, causing the little girl with the outrageous temper to slightly pause.

"Pa!"

The surroundings suddenly fell silent, everything seemingly frozen in silence, only Tangze Asuka’s pupils slightly moved, feeling as though sensing something, but in the next second, Master Tao abruptly opened the fan, cutting through the stagnant silence like thunder across the sky.

Creek water resumed flowing, peach blossoms slowly fell, Tangze Asuka’s breathing became smooth again.

Yet ahead, Master Tao’s figure remained small, half her face concealed by the open fan, showcasing her delicate brows, yet giving Tangze Asuka a completely different feeling.

"You... you aren’t the old Master Tao, are you?"

"Hehehe, trivial fish..."

Alright, she still calls me trivial fish, the name hasn’t changed, yet it doesn’t feel as annoying as before.

It feels like the obnoxious brat’s mindless insults have transformed into a mature sister’s teasing and playfulness. The term is unchanged, its meaning unchanged, yet its content shifted entirely.

"You transferee have decent perception, just a bit too low IQ, difficult to explain..."

Her eyes behind the fan gradually turned pink, like blossoming peach flowers,

"Past me, present me, future me."

"I am Tao, Tao is all."
