Su Mo specially bought her a pair of cool black Martin boots. The size was perfect, not only matching the style of the clothes, but also offering some height boost with the thick soles.

Dongdong looked at herself in the mirror, her pink hair perfectly complementing the street-style outfit. She casually flicked her bangs, water droplets that hadn’t dried yet fell like pearls down her face.

She spun around in front of the mirror, clearly overjoyed, even though there was nobody else in the room, she still pretended to be tough: “Humph, it’s average.”

She ate, took a shower, changed clothes, then tied her hair into twin ponytails, grabbed the baseball bat on the desk, and bounced out the door.

The hotel had quite a few guests, and as Dongdong left, she bumped into a man.

The man’s eyes lit up with amazement when he saw Dongdong.

Despite her petite frame, Dongdong was dressed in cool, trendy attire, her short stature well-proportioned. Her legs were long and smooth, looking very elastic, wrapped in white stockings, and the pink twin ponytails were full of vibrant energy.

The man gave a sly smile and whistled, teasingly: “Hey there, little darling, want to come play in uncle’s room?”

Dongdong directly swung the bat at his face: “I’ll play with your *Civilized Border*, you stupid dog!”

The man clutched his swollen face, terrified by this violent little girl, and fled back to his room in disgrace.

Dongdong swaggered out of the hotel, hands on her hips, saying energetically to the sun: “Su Mo, I’m back again!”

…

“Achoo…” Su Mo sneezed, took out a tissue to wipe his nose.

He picked up his phone and continued, “K, are you sure she’ll like the outfit you picked?”

On the other end of the line, KK said firmly, “I promise you, bro, long coat with denim shorts and Martin boots is the classic style for a Civilized Border punk girl. Even if Dongdong isn’t particularly fond of it, she won’t hate it.”

Su Mo scratched his head: “Alright… I don’t know a thing about girls, I’ll trust you on this.”

KK: “Bro, have you never had a girlfriend before?”

Su Mo blushed: “Ahem… I’ve got things to do, hanging up now.”

He hung up the phone, finished his dinner, and walked out of the fast-food restaurant.

He took out his motorcycle keys, looked at the empty parking spot, and froze: “Where’s my bike?”

“Vroom-vroom-vroom—” The familiar sound of a motorcycle engine came from the other end of the street.

There sat Dongdong on Su Mo’s motorcycle, the wiring at the ignition had been dismantled and hacked, allowing it to start without keys.

Her petite frame barely managed to reach the ground while riding the motorcycle, looking rather comical, spinning the tires in place on the road, leaving black traces of rubber as white smoke rose continuously.

As Su Mo stood frozen, Dongdong turned her head toward him, her mischievous smile akin to a little wild cat plotting trouble.

Su Mo’s eyes widened: “I’m warning you! Don’t mess around!”

“Nyah~” Dongdong stuck her tongue out at Su Mo, twisted the handlebars, and sped off.

Her riding skills weren’t great, quickly losing control after taking off.

“Bang!”

The motorcycle collided heavily with a roadside lamp post, resulting in numerous broken parts falling off.

Su Mo roared in anger: “I just had it repaired!!!”

Dongdong shook her head, continued to speed off on the motorcycle.

She soon got the hang of riding this machine, zipping down the spacious road with the cool evening breeze rushing against her face, the neon lights stretching into streaks before her eyes.

In front of her lay the bustling city against the backdrop of night, leaving all worries behind, Dongdong suddenly felt a sense of rebirth, laughing joyfully.

“Yee-haw—I’m so happy!!!”

However, this joy didn’t last long.

As she continued racing, suddenly she heard furious shouting from behind: “Give me back my bike!!!”

She glanced in the rearview mirror and was utterly astonished.

There was Su Mo pedaling furiously on a shared bike he found on the street, reaching speeds over a hundred miles per hour in pursuit.

Dongdong was alarmed: “What the heck! Is he a monster?!”

The bicycle and motorcycle raced insanely on the road, causing a cacophony of honking from other vehicles.

Ahead was an intersection, the yellow light just ended, and the red light lit up.

Dongdong pressed the gas to the floor, shouting excitedly: “Charge!!!”

“Whoosh—” She zigzagged through the middle of the road before the streams of traffic could converge, drifting to a stop on the other side of the street.

Su Mo was blocked by traffic, forced to stop and glare helplessly at Dongdong.

Dongdong was ecstatic, deliberately tilting her head and speaking in a provoking tone: “Huh, can’t catch me now? Big brother sure is a weakling~ weakling~”

“Hey, dummy, your bike is mine now! Consider it compensation for you calling me short. If you’re not happy, come catch me! Na-na-na—”

She laughed out loud, twisted the throttle, and sped away.

Su Mo continued the chase after the red light ended.

He just turned around the next fork in the road, and suddenly realized he didn’t need to chase anymore.

Dongdong had already been caught.

A police car had forced the motorcycle to stop, and the sheriff was pressing Dongdong onto the car hood.

Dongdong kept struggling, still yelling, “Let go of me! What right do you have to catch me!”

The sheriff chuckled, “Speeding, driving the wrong way, running a red light, driving without a license—what do you mean what right? Come back to the office with us.”

At this moment, Su Mo rushed over, wearing an apologetic smile: “Officers, this motorcycle is mine.”

“She stole your motorcycle, right?” The sheriff twisted Dongdong’s arm behind her back, saying coldly, “Then it’s also theft.”

Unable to break free from the sheriff, Dongdong had to turn her face away, refusing to look at Su Mo, thinking he must be grinning as he watched her embarrassment.

But unexpectedly, Su Mo suddenly said, “Steal? She didn’t steal it; I lent her the motorcycle.”

The sheriff was stunned, and Dongdong was stunned.

Su Mo smiled and said, “She’s my friend.”

Dongdong slowly turned her head, staring blankly at Su Mo, her eyes filled with confusion.

The sheriff frowned, “Think carefully before you speak. She was driving without a license, and you lent her the motorcycle knowing she had no license; you also bear legal responsibility.”

Su Mo willingly stretched out his hands, “Fine, I’ll share the responsibility with her.”

The sheriff didn’t say much more, signaling his partner to cuff Su Mo as well.

…

Two hours later.

Su Mo and Dongdong emerged from the Public Security Bureau.

Dongdong’s wild ride hadn’t caused an accident, and she was quite young, so the bureau really didn’t want to hold her.

Su Mo paid a fine and received a warning and some education, and the two were released together.

Dongdong, usually cheeky and clingy, remained silent throughout and didn’t utter a word after stepping outside.

Su Mo smacked her on the back of the head, complaining, “Look what you’ve done! Cost me a couple of grand, can’t you just chill out?”

Dongdong hung her head, saying nothing, remaining silent, as tears suddenly welled up in her eyes, streaming down her cheeks and dripping onto her collar.

Su Mo was taken aback, hurriedly saying, “Hey? Hey, why are you crying?”

Su Mo had never been in a relationship, having no experience in these emotions from childhood.

Girls’ tears were the thing he feared the most.

Su Mo, at a loss, hurriedly used his sleeve to wipe Dongdong’s tears, “What’s happening, don’t cry!”

Dongdong let Su Mo wipe her tears, yet couldn’t stop them from flowing, choking as she said, “You hate me so much, I’ll pay you back, and won’t bother you anymore…”

Su Mo’s mind went blank.

This is bad, really bad, messed up here?

[The Pink-haired Loli’s Taming] Failed?!

Su Mo stumbled over his words, “No, I-I-I don’t hate you, why would I hate you? I was just complaining casually, how could you take it seriously… Oh, I beg you! Please don’t cry, I’m most afraid when girls cry…”

As Su Mo was at a loss, instinctively wanting to hug the pitiful Dongdong…

“Gotcha!!!” She suddenly kicked violently towards Su Mo’s legs.

Su Mo reflexively clamped his legs shut, trapping Dongdong’s leg, just a centimeter from ‘Xiaosu’.

Su Mo broke into a cold sweat on the spot; if his reaction had been a little slower, he might have had to crawl home today.

“Wow! You can even react to that?!” Dongdong forcefully pulled her leg out and stepped back from Su Mo.

Her tears stopped flowing, and her pitiful expression disappeared, replaced by a mischievous, wicked smile: “Oh my, your weakness is actually girls crying? Didn’t expect you to be so naive~”

She blinked her big eyes and said in a sweet, girly voice, “Big brother, Dongdong will listen to you from now on, don’t hate Dongdong, boo hoo hoo…”

As she spoke, she sickened herself: “Yuck! Dummy, get a grip, just a few tears and you got tricked, you’ll eventually get played to death by bad women at this rate!”

“Just wait, we’re not done! Before I beat you to a pulp, I’ll keep pestering you, you can’t escape!” Dongdong said, then climbed over the wall and escaped, leaving Su Mo bewildered in the breeze.
