Only then did Luo Chen snap back to reality from Qiao Qing’s fascinating combat moves.
Instantly excited, he grabbed onto her hand. With a heated gaze similar to how one looks at their idol, he stared at her.
“You know ancient martial arts?”
He could tell distinctly that her first few moves were considered to be a well-trained combater. However, that last move could not be done by people who don’t know martial arts.
Qiao Qing aggressively pulled back her hand. She didn’t answer his question. Instead, she suppressed her anger and asked, “What’s the reason for this provocation?”
Luo Chen suddenly remembered his intention in coming here. His face turned pale white, “Qiao Qing, listen to me explain. I…”
He scratched the back of his head and found it difficult to retell the tale, “Qiao Nian said you accused her of circulating the story of you getting dumped. She also said you tattled to your grandpa to get your grandpa to hate her. So…”
“So you came out to help her?” Qiao Qing snickered, “Go train for another decade before acting as someone’s protector, fella.”
Then, both of her hands went back into her pockets. She walked past him to leave.
Just then, a boy crawled off the ground and said, “Bro Luo, are you for real? You got all of us here to beat up a girl for that?”
Luo Chen’s face puffed red from embarrassment. “Shut up!”
Another boy chimed in, “This morning, I did see something like this. A girl gave another girl a couple of red bills and asked her to spread around the news of Qiao Qing’s engagement being called off. At the time, I thought the girl was pretty so I snuck a picture. Is this what you guys are talking about?”
He took out his cellphone.
Someone from beside him mocked, “Lao Hu, you still have the habit of collecting pretty girls’ photos? Is it useful? You can only look but you cannot touch!”
“Go away! I do what I want! It’s none of your business.”
Luo Chen was in no mood to pay attention to their teasing. He walked over in a hurry and after taking a look at the cell phone, his expression turned cold.
What a great self-directed and self-performed drama. How could he, Luo Chen, be played by a girl like this!
