“What are you thinking about, Xiaoyu?”
Nangong Yunhan walked up to Meng Xiaoyu, gently ruffling her hair with a tender smile.
He completely ignored the changing expressions of the Han Rubing sisters behind him.
“Uh, nothing!”
Meng Xiaoyu, who had just been brought back to her senses by Nangong Yunhan’s gentle voice, was instantly captivated again by his beautiful, smiling face.
After answering his question, she stared at him with hearts in her eyes, completely forgetting about the Han Rubing sisters.
Seeing the two of them “gazing deeply” into each other’s eyes and completely ignoring them, Han Rushuang’s face turned dark.
She really wanted to chop off the hand Nangong Yunhan had placed on Meng Xiaoyu’s head and then pull Xiaoyu into her arms for a good scolding.
If it weren’t for Han Rubing holding her back, she might have already done so.
Meanwhile, Han Rubing, holding her sister’s hand tightly, had a dangerous smile growing on her face.
She was already planning how to punish their disobedient little one.
After deciding on the punishment for tonight, Han Rubing’s smile became even more dangerous.
She thought to herself, “Little one, don’t blame us tonight. I didn’t want to do this so soon, but you’re just too disobedient and attract too much attention. If we don’t act quickly, who knows when someone else might take you away.”
She glanced at Nangong Yunhan, who was smiling tenderly at Xiaoyu.
Then she concluded, “So, because you’re too disobedient and attract too much attention, for our future happiness, you won’t escape tonight.”
Just as Han Rushuang’s face darkened, Han Rubing’s smile turned dangerous, and Meng Xiaoyu and Nangong Yunhan continued their “deep gaze,” a sudden “Heroine!”
broke the strange atmosphere.
Meng Xiaoyu looked at the man in front of her, who had an excited expression as if he had seen his idol and kept calling her “heroine.”
She pointed at herself incredulously and asked, “Are you calling me?”
“Yes! When I saw you walk out of the crowd, I thought I wouldn’t find you again. But after I sent that girl home and came back, I saw you still standing there. Do you know how excited I was to see you again?”
The man, whom Meng Xiaoyu had earlier deemed a lecherous playboy, now looked at her with starry eyes, answering her question.
“So, why are you looking for me?”
Meng Xiaoyu felt uncomfortable under the man’s adoring gaze.
Hearing her question, the man immediately stood up straight and said formally, “Heroine, my name is Li Gaosheng, and I live in the Li Mansion on East Street. My father is the magistrate of Fuyun City, and I am the eldest son of the magistrate.”
After introducing himself, he scratched his head and continued, “Actually, I don’t have any big matters. I just want you to take me as your follower, and I’ll follow you from now on.”
“Why?”
Meng Xiaoyu was dumbfounded, and even Nangong Yunhan and the Han Rubing sisters looked at the man in confusion.
Hearing her question, the man excitedly grabbed Meng Xiaoyu’s sleeve and said, “Because we’re the same kind of people! When you shouted, ‘Beast, let go of that girl, I’m here!’ in front of the crowd, do you know how excited I was? Especially the ‘I’m here’ part; it was like music to my ears! Since I was young, I’ve believed that women shouldn’t be with men but with other women. Men are filthy and don’t deserve pure women. But everyone insists that men and women should be together, that yin and yang are the natural order. That’s nonsense! In my view, women being together is the true natural order, and men should be eradicated…”
Meng Xiaoyu looked at the man in front of her, who was passionately criticizing the world’s view of men and women and promoting his theory that women should be together while men should be eradicated.
She couldn’t help but think, “Is this guy the one from another world? And what’s with his theory of elevating women and trampling men? Doesn’t he realize he’s a man too? If the world really followed his idea, with all women being together and men being eradicated, wouldn’t the world be doomed?”
