Chapter 13 A dusky evening on the island

Walking on the beautiful beach of the island was an absolute pleasure. I gently walked on the sand, frequently closing my eyes to enjoy the breeze carrying the flavor of sea; suddenly thought of my previous dream of selling bananas in Maldives, at this moment that dream seemed like a good choice.

Unfortunately, oh unfortunately, heard more than two thousands of such beautiful islands would be engulfed by sea water, ruminating this really made me sad.

My Skin's very sensitive to sun and could get sun-burnt very easily. Thus, although coated with sunscreen but for an extra layer of protection I wore extra-large clothes. I was wearing casual pants on the bottom and upper body was covered with a huge baggy t-shirt.

Walking on the beach dressed like this though was kind of weird but it was really useful. This baggy T-shirt was one of my favorite shirts because it was not expensive. And also this t-shirt was a gift by He Zhi on my twenty-fifth birthday, she herself designed it and then got it custom stitched. On the front side of this t-shirt there were some strange symbols, according to He-Zhi these symbols were a legacy of ancient world's major civilization, they apparently ward off evil spirits. While on the back "Funny Yan Yan" these words were printed in black ink, there were also some poem verses. I actually did not understand the calligraphy but those strokes of brush looked very pleasing to eyes. By He-Zhi's account, she struggled a bit in order to look for this specific calligraphy etc etc. About the credibility of these words I had reservation but this did not affect my affection for this t-shirt, in fact this t-shirt made me have an aesthetic appeal in He-Zhi's eyes.

At such a pleasant place, under such a pleasant weather it's only appropriate to wear my best clothes.
I was strolling on the beach; suddenly someone came from behind and tapped on my shoulder. I thought it was Jiang Li and was wondering how come he took the initiative to talk to me and turned around only to find myself in front of a stranger.

He had long blond hair with streaks of bright yellow highlights. Although I did not like his hairstyle but could not help to admit his face was not bad, fine facial features, at the corner of his eyes a line appeared when he smiled. Such a person standing under the sun looked more graceful because of bright sunlight.

I instantly felt that my ability to charm people was not small, ah, this handsome guy actually took the initiative to strike a conversation with me. So I timidly lifted the corner of my mouth slightly and was about to say something but he opened his mouth first.

He tilted his head a little, softly raised his eyebrows, gave me a mesmerizing smile and then said: "Idiot?"

The word Idiot was said in a very clear voice, moreover in an interrogative tone.

I was both innocent and indignant; did I tease him or provoke him? How could he call the person he had just met for the first time 'an idiot'! Try asking a normal girl if a stranger calls her idiot, would she stand it? Not to mention if the stranger's a handsome guy, it's unforgivable.

So I felt the person before me was seriously ill-bred and was in need of reformation, therefore I did not bother about him anymore and turned around to walk away. In my heart I was thinking the world is full of brain damaged people, if every time you meet them and they curse you, wouldn't that be exhausting.
