Unfortunate Hero's Retirement Life

Chapter 31: Unexpected Guest

"We are now dating!"

Hong Yu announced to her big sister. She raised her hand which was also holding Heero's hand in celebration.

Han Ying looked at her happy sister, then turned to Heero was seeming embarrassed. She gently smiled, "Hehe, I know this will happen, but I did not expect you two will dating this soon."

After that, Han Ying walked toward Heero and tapped his shoulder, her lips curved into a gentle smile and said: "I leave my sister to you!"

"Hey, Big sis, what are you talking about. We are not going to get married yet. We are still dating, we are still dating. A certain someone just proposed me though."

When she reached the last sentence, Hong Yu let out a giggle.

"Eh?! Someone proposed to you?" Han Ying surprised.

"Hehe, sis let's go upstairs. I will tell you what happened…" Hong Yu dragged Han Ying to upstairs.

"Ehhh… but we have to pack the goods outside…" Han Ying's words trailed off as Hong Yu dragged her to upstairs, leaving the embarrassed Heero.

As for how it turned out like this, it happened a few hours ago. After he proposed, he was rejected by Hong Yu on the spot. It was not a rejection though. Hong Yu said she was still not ready yet.

...

A few hours ago

"Urghh, it's just too sudden, I am not ready yet… shouldn't we date first before getting married? I mean…"

Hong Yu tried to explain yet she could not find the right words. She herself flustered.

"You don't like me?" Heero asked in disappointment. He looked dejected and down which was making Hong Yu even more flustered.

"No… No, I don't mean it. I mean we should have started dating first before getting married."

"Dating? What is that? Do you mean, we should have chosen a date for our marriage?" Heero asked in confusion.

In Dramonia, there was no term of dating. People usually confessed to the woman/man they loved. After that, they would choose the date to marry. So Heero thought, dating meant was to choose the date for their marriage.

This time, it was Hong Yu who got confused. But then, she got the point.

"Do you somehow not know dating is?"

Heero shook his head in confusion. He really did not know what Hong Yu meant was.

Confirming the source of the problem, Hong Yu stared at Heero strangely. However, she remembered Heero said he was living in the mountains with his master since twelve.

Then, she let out a giggle. Hong Yu looked at Heero with a serious look and asked, "Then if I accepted your proposal, what are we going to do next?"

"Choosing a date and get married? But I don't plan to marry you right now. I have to look good and stable job, then we will choose a date to get married." Heero answered honestly.

It was the plan. If the Hero League hired him as Hero Instructor, it would be the best. However, the Hero League rejected his offer.

"Then, let's say I accepted your proposal and we decided to marry two years later. What is our status in these two years?" Hong Yu threw another question.

"..." Heero did not know how to answer this. Yes, what was their status in those two years. They had not married yet after all. It meant their status was still the same, close friend? But…

"That is dating. During these two years, it would be called dating. And if you find that I am good enough to be your wife, we can get married at that time."

After all, I am just an ordinary woman from the outer region. Maybe later you will find a better girl than me…" Hong Yu's words trailed off, but there was no need for her to fill the words. Heero understood what she wanted to say.

After finding out Heero was actually a former Hero

Hong Yu realized her status was low to marry a man like Heero. She wondered if she was good enough to be with him. What if… Heero found a woman better than her and left her?

Heero pulled Hong Yu to his embrace and said in a solemn tone, "I like you for who you are and I promise I will marry you."

Hearing what Heero said, a smile blossomed on Hong Yu.

"So, we are now dating? What's our status then?" Heero asked in confusion, breaking the good atmosphere in the car.

Hong Yu broke free from Heero's embrace and declared with a big happy smile, "We are now lover. I am your girlfriend and you are my boyfriend."

"Hmmn, " Heero nodded his head in acknowledgment and added, "But two years are too long, what about one year?"

"Heh, it depends on your performance. If you are a good boyfriend, it might be less than a year."

"Then…" Just as Heero wanted to make another promise, the driver cut him off.

"Lady and Mister, can you continue your 'talk' in another place? We have arrived in Commerce Region 10 minutes ago. Earlier, I did not disturb you because you guys have the thing you need to settle. Now, you have settled your issue, can you please look at another place to talk. I still have many works with me."

The uncle driver who had been listening to the weird lover talk, finally he could not endure it anymore. He finally showed his presence with a wry smile on his face.

Only then, Hong Yu realized there was another person who listened to them. Hong Yu's face immediately turned red and got out of the car. It was so embarrassing.

"Really, when you are falling in love, the world seemed only belong to them. It's good to be young~" The uncle driver let out of sigh and turned back to the inner region.

….

It was what happened a few hours ago. Heero overlooked the different cultures of the two worlds. Nevertheless, Heero was still happy. He was now Hong Yu's lover and he accomplished the first step to continue his family line.

Heero went out and began his work. After the talk between him and Hong Yu while shopping. Hong Yu said he could temporarily work in Miao Miao Noodles Shop until he got a new job.

For now, his first job was tidying the ingredients to the storeroom. They bought a lot of goods, but it was an easy task for Heero. Five minutes, he finished his work. Then he waited for the two sisters on the first floor.

It was still noon and almost lunchtime, the customers would swarm in soon. Ten minutes later, the two sisters came down.

When the two sisters came down, Heero realized there was something different in their gaze. Especially Han Ying, she was weirdly staring at him as she approached him.

"I have heard everything from my sister. I will accept you to work here. But as you know, I can't pay with high pay here. 500 WD per month and I will provide your meal. How is it?"

"How about this. You don't need to pay me, but let me have your rooftop for me to use."

There was no way he could take his sister-in-law's money. As he was homeless, he could take the rooftop and build a small cabin for his room to sleep. It was a win-win situation for both of them.

Moreover, he still could gain money from publishing books. For now, his main income was from the books he published with Yun Xia Publisher.

"Rooftop? What for?" Han Ying's gaze even got weird as she heard the request. She now wondered if his sister chose the right man.

"You will know later. How is it? Do you agree?" There was no way Heero would say he was homeless and wanted her permission to live on her rooftop.

Han Ying looked at her little sister, wondering if she should agree with this weird deal. However, Hong Yu nodded her head in agreement.

"Good. I will let you use the rooftop." In the Han Ying could only helplessly agree. Then, she saw his little sister was raising her thumb and winked her right eye to Heero.

Han Ying shook her head and headed to the kitchen, "Alright, it's lunchtime, we have to get ready to open the shop!"

With this, Heero opened a new career to be a Noodles Master. Of course, he still could not make noodles as Han Ying. Heero had to start as the waiter.

Heero opened the door and greeted the customer, "Welcome to Miao Miao Noodles Shop~"

Just like this, two weeks passed.

Heero already worked at Miao Miao Noodles Shop for two weeks. Even though he was still the waiter, but he could make noodles. It was not as good as Han Ying though. Nevertheless, it was still good progress.

Heero's tranquil life was back and just as he thought so, there was an unexpected guess coming to the shop. She was his former student at Hope Preschool, Kang Myung Hee.

Kang Myung did not come alone, she was with a boy. The boy was about twelve years old, having the same red hair as Kang Myung Hee, and this boy somewhat looked frosty.

"Myung Hee? What are you doing here?" Heero was surprised when he saw Kang Myung at the shop's door.

But the surprise did not stop here, Kang Myung Hee dashed toward Heero and hugged his thigh.

With tears streaming down from her eyes and sobbing voice, Kang Myung Hee spoke, "Teacher Xing, please save my sister!"
