87 Are They Even Human?

On a viewing platform in Tianmen mountain, a young fei zhu liu [1] couple posed on the railing, while their group of friends took turns on taking their photo.

The man had dyed blonde hair and wore a neon green bomber jacket, while the girl beside him had bubblegum pink hair tied up in pigtails. She was pouting at the camera, looking girly and cute.

One of her female friends commented enviously, "If only I could be as pretty as Jinjing, then I might have a cute boyfriend like that too."

All of their friends nodded their heads in agreement.

"Well, Jinjing is the goddess of our school after all. It's only natural for her to be with someone at her own level."

"I heard he broke so many hearts before he fell in love with our Jinjing. It's so sweet!"

"He's a famous street dancer. Not only is he cute, he's talented too. Jinjing's so lucky to have him!"

"Well, he's lucky to have Jinjing too. If only I could be with goddess Jinjing, ah!"

The bubblegum pink-haired girl, the one they called Jinjing, smugly listened to their conversation. It was only natural. Beautiful people attract attention whenever they go, because they were pleasing to the eye.

In a basket full of blemished apples, who wouldn't notice a glossy red apple? It was their role to stand out from the crowd.

She looked up at the man standing beside her, giving him a flirty smile. She had constantly given him subtle hints for five months before he finally decided to pursue her, and Jingjing was proud to discover that they had indeed become the hottest couple in their school as she had expected. Thanks to that, she had gained many followers.

Although her boyfriend had an expression that seemed like he didn't care about what anyone thought, he too was attentively listening to their discussion. He flipped his hair a little, making sure to show them his best angle.

An attractive female tourist passed by and gave him an appreciative glance. He felt gratified, raising his chin slightly and giving her his best smile.

Then the tourist abruptly stopped, her eyes becoming round as her mouth dropped open.

"So...handsome..."

He tried to mask his glee. It was the first time he had made anyone become stunned like this, as a blush suffused her cheeks like red wine. But...eh?

Why did he feel like she wasn't looking at him...but at someone behind him?

He turned around.

A young couple wearing matching couple shirts slowly ambled to the viewing platform, and the moment they appeared, they stole everyone's attention.

Jinjing's boyfriend didn't notice what caught the female tourist's attention, because his eyes were immediately drawn to the woman beside the man. Although a mask covered the lower half of her face, her beautiful eyes, her silky hair, and her jade-like skin made anyone who saw her swallow their saliva.

She was like an immortal fairy that descended to earth, making the men want to kneel down to the ground and worship her.

"Oh...wow," he whispered, feeling his heart skip a beat.

Beside him, if it was under any other circumstances, Jinjing would have furiously thrown a tantrum and demand to her boyfriend that he should only look at her. But Jinjing was distracted too, her eyes never leaving the man that was wearing a pair of dark sunglasses. Her breath quickened, her legs becoming weak. Jinjing nearly swooned.

Those lips, that jaw, that body, that height...all of his features were that of her ideal man. She thought these kind of men would only show up in her dreams, but there was one standing in front of her right now!

He looked like he did not notice the many eyes that were focused on him, as his indifferent expression didn't even waver in the slightest. Perhaps he was too used to all of it, the sudden pause in a person's natural expression when they looked his way followed by a forced nonchalant stare and a weak smile. Of course the blush that accompanied it was a dead give-away.

Jinjing struggled to glance away, but her eyes drifted back towards him like they were being magnetized.

The noise in the viewing platform died as the crowd let out an unanimous sigh.

"Ai, the best ulzzang couple..."

"So handsome!"

"They say that a lover's eye sees the legendary beauty of Xi Shi in his plain wife, but in this case, the girl might as well be her reincarnation in this lifetime..."

All of them secretly thought, what the heck...why are those two so beautiful...

Are they even human?
