A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 259 A Speechless Question

But there was no lewdness in her eyes, only surprise and curiosity, like a three-year-old girl suddenly seeing something interesting she had never seen before.

Has she never seen a man before?

Seeing her expression, Chao Bufan also felt something was off, and a lot of questions quickly popped into his head.

But before he could even start thinking, she spoke: "Young man, you're so strange! You're not even wearing any clothes."

Her voice was sweet and clear, and she spoke each word slowly and clearly, as if afraid that the other person would not understand what she was saying, or as if her speech was naturally awkward.

"Hey buddy, that's weird! You're not even wearing any clothes."

An ordinary person would never speak like that upon seeing someone in this state. Yet, she showed no embarrassment whatsoever, instead uttering these perplexing words as if she had suddenly encountered a monster.

Yes, this is a monster.

"Cough...cough..."

He coughed twice, grinned, and then quickly grabbed the clothes beside him and put them on. After he was dressed, he slowly turned around, smiled somewhat embarrassedly, and said, "Um... miss, I'm so sorry, I..."

"Young man, you've got the wrong name. My name isn't 'Miss,' it's 'Yao Yao.'"

"Oh, Miss Yao Yao, I'm so sorry about that, I..."

"Young man, you've called me by the wrong name again. My name isn't Miss Yao Yao, it's just Yao Yao."

"Uh?"

Chao Bufan was immediately stunned, thinking: Did I call her the wrong name again? Or is she... a fool? Okay! I was wrong, you're right, your name is Yao Yao, not Miss Yao Yao. He quickly chuckled and said, "Um... Yao Yao, I..."

"Hey buddy, what's your name?"

Yao Yao always seemed to be working against him, never letting him finish what he was saying.

He smiled helplessly and replied, "My name is Chao Bufan."

"Extraordinary? What a strange name. And what are you?"

"What am I?"

That's a really extreme question, isn't it? Is she really an idiot?

Chao Bufan shook his head and smiled, then said, "I am a person."

Are you alone?

Yao Yao looked at her with suspicion, then asked, "So what kind of person are you?"

She asked the question very seriously, without a trace of humor.

Chao Bufan was truly at a loss for words, and could only reply, "I am... I am an ordinary person."

"An ordinary person? Are you really an ordinary person?"

The more she asked, the stranger her questions became; they sounded like the questions of an idiot.

Perhaps, she was just an idiot to begin with.

Chao Bufan really didn't know how to answer.

She looked at him as if he were an idiot—if he couldn't even answer such a simple question, what else could he be but an idiot?

So he could only patiently reply, "Okay, I'm sorry, I lied to you. I'm not an ordinary person, I'm a man."

"Are you a man?" she asked again.

Chao Bufan was stunned.

After all that, it turns out that what she really wanted to ask was this kind of question. She stared at him for a long time, even looking at his private parts, and for a long time, and still couldn't tell that he was a man. This girl is really... speechless.

Chao Bufan was both amused and exasperated, but he had to answer very seriously: "Yes, I am a man, a dignified man."

"Oh! So you're a man. But why don't you seem like a man to me?"

Chao Bufan was stunned again.

This is truly a case of an idiot meeting a fool; it's utterly nonsensical.

"If I'm not a man, then what do you think I am?" Chao Bufan sighed, facepalming.

"I don't know what you are either? Anyway, you're definitely not a man, and a man is definitely not like you."

She spoke very seriously, and it didn't sound like she was lying or joking.

Fortunately, Chao Bufan has gradually calmed down and is now able to keep his composure; otherwise, he would have immediately flew into a rage.

"So what do you think men should be like?" Chao Bufan seemed intrigued.

"Of course...it's like this, like this, and like this." She described it while using her hands.

Chao Bufan really couldn't understand what she was gesturing, so he had to follow along and said, "Like this, like this, and like this, what is this?"

“This is nothing, this is my grandfather.”

"Your grandfather?" Chao Bufan asked, "Who is your grandfather?"

“Grandpa is Grandpa, he’s nobody else.”

Chao Bufan was speechless, completely exasperated by what he had just said. He smiled helplessly and said, "Fine! You win. Grandpa is Grandpa, he's nobody else."

"Did I say something wrong?"

"That's right, you're not wrong, I'm the one who's wrong." Chao Bufan was speechless and furious.

Chao Bufan was speechless at encountering someone who seemed to have lost their mind, especially a beautiful girl like her. But looking at her radiant smile, though he didn't want to ask anymore, he couldn't help but ask, "Yaoyao, how did you just walk out of the sky?"

Yao Yao's smile remained bright and amiable as she replied, "My grandfather wanted me to go down the mountain to gather herbs, so I came down from the sky! And you? Where did you come from?"

“I come from the city.”

"City? Where is a city?"

"A city is... is... a place with lots of people?"

"A crowded place? What kind of place is a crowded place?"

“Of course it’s…it’s the city!” Chao Bufan was afraid that Yao Yao would get hung up on this issue again, so he quickly added, “Okay, Yao Yao, let’s not talk about this anymore. My head is spinning right now.”

Chao Bufan knew that if things continued like this, she would never stop.

Just then, the old man's voice rang out.

"I see."

Chao Bufan frowned slightly and asked in confusion, "Senior, what do you know?"

"Kid, do you know who this woman in front of you is?"

Chao Bufan exclaimed in bewilderment, "Of course it's a person!"

The old man said, "No, she is not human. To be precise, she does not belong to the human race."

"puff!"

Chao Bufan almost burst out laughing and quickly said, "Senior, there's such a big, living person standing here. You're saying she's not human? Is she a ghost?!"

"She is neither human nor ghost."

"Uh?"

Chao Bufan was taken aback, feeling that the old man's words were becoming increasingly absurd.

"Kid, what's with that look? Do you think I'd make something up out of nothing?"

Chao Bufan asked with a serious expression, "Senior, you said she's neither human nor ghost, could she be a demon?"
