Chapter 199 193 Drama (4)

[Bonus Chapter 2/5]

Looking at them from afar in the crowds, they weren't sure what it was about. Thankfully, they found someone familiar to get the gist of it.

Apparently, the doll girl was creeping around the festival in one mind when a group of idiots came to pick on her. The doll girl easily said "no" to all the suitors that tried to hit on her, but the youths were in the mood of festivity. How could they just leave after getting a rejection?

They encircled the girl, with the intention of having some fun, as the girl was simply reserved and awkward in nature. Although she showed her spirit arts-based, it was simply nothing that the group couldn't handle.

That was when the heroic girl drew her entrance, on to the rescue of the damsel in distress, standing out for a fellow female practitioner.

The tom girl easily scared away the group of youth, rescuing the maiden in distress. Her base of spirit art was easily higher than the youths, as the girl was already a silver ranker, even with her younger appearance.

The doll girl bowed her head in gratitude for helping her, and this would have ended right there with everyone leaving with their lives.

But apparently not. The tom girl apparently had other intentions after saving the doll girl.

The white-haired girl couldn't control herself and confessed her love and adoration for the doll girl right at that moment, catching the girl, the crowd, and even the previous group of youths, off guard.

Wang Li was completely flabbergasted when they got to that point. She exchanged another look with Xiaolin, who could simply shrug, looking at the girls.

"I do admit," Xiaolin said, "she's really like a doll. I don't know why, but I have the urge to bathe her, comb her hair and clothe her with something better."

Wang Li shot her a glare, never knew Xiaolin swung this way as well.

"But. . . but, she's so cute," Xiaolin said in defence. "I have no ulterior motive like that girl."

Wang Li shook her head as the drama kept on continuing. The white-haired girl wasn't taking no for an answer, bringing out and bragging about everything she had accomplished. Whereas the doll girl was clearly dying inside, being the centre of attention of the crowd.

"I don't know how I can get your approval," said the white-haired tomgirl. "Tell me something I need to accomplish. I'll do it. This is Lian's promise to you."

"Please," the doll girl squeaked, clutching the end of her robe in the waist with her fingers, unable to come up with anything. "Please. . ."

"I mean, don't cut the blood of the Sun clan short," the white-haired girl said. "Tell me anything, I'll accomplish it."

A frown crept to Wang Li's brows as she heard it. She blinked and turned to Xiaolin, making sure he heard it right.

"I should have made the connection first," Xiaolin said, "with that white hair and smell."

"I guess the Sun clan is full of unique individuals," Wang Li said.

She thought about how to crash this drama, as she simply couldn't watch the doll girl getting toyed with like this since the pale doll girl clearly seemed to have a problem with crowds.

"You're from the Great Sun Clan?" Wang Li asked, pitching her voice louder, enough to get into the ears of the tomgirl, who didn't seem to notice or care about the crowd she had gathered.

"Yes, of course," Sun Lian said proudly. "I'm Sun Lian, granddaughter of Sun Jun, Great granddaughter of--"

"Do you know Sun Ziang?" Wang Li simply cut her off. "He should be related to you somehow."

"You know Sun Ziang?" Sun Lian's expression changed immediately. "Is he here?"

"Yes," Wang Li said. "Come with me. I'll take you to meet him?"

The girl of the great Sun Clan clearly became panicked hearing that, though she played it cool, laughing wildly.

"How could I inconvenience you," Sun Lian said, ready to wander off on her own. "I'll find him on my own."

"No, no, it isn't inconvenient at all," Wang Li said. "He's staying at our inn, and we're distantly related, so it--"

That made the girl panic even more. She bowed the next moment and literally shot out of the crowds in a white flash before anyone could stop her.

Wang Li exchanged a look with Xiaolin who was just as well flabbergasted as her. They guessed Sun Ziang's identity was enough to induce fear even in an outrageous girl like her, who simply confessed to another girl in broad daylight.

Wang Li sighed, as the problem was half-solved. Though she had to disperse the crowd now.

"What are you all looking at?" She barked at the crowd as if it was her town. "Get back to your work. There's nothing left to see here."

While most of the crowd spread hearing her, some of them still lingered, as charming and cute girls like Xiaolin and the pale girl were a sight to behold. Not to mention, Wang Li didn't lose out with her mature charm.

Wang Li sighed and was turning to Xiaolin, only to find the golden blonde girl next to the doll girl.

Thankfully, Xiaolin didn't confess to the pale girl. That would have been simply too much for the pal girl to handle in the scope of a few minutes.

She literally looked sick of all the confrontation, face red, sweating uncomfortably in the cold weather.

Wang Li joined Xiaolin with the Pale girl, who bowed to her for the rescue.

"What's your name?"

"Chen," the girl said softly, breathing heavily, "Fang Chen."

"Well, Xiao Chen," Wang Li said. "The crowd had been tough on you. Do you want to take a breather? Our house is just in the corner?"

Fang Chen nodded readily. She seemed to curious about Xiaolin's glowing hair, but too introverted to ask.

"Come on then. You seemed like you have come a long way, if you don't have a place for the night, you can stay with us."

Xiaolin and Wang Li led the panic-stricken girl into their Inn, not conversing much as the girl was clearly uncomfortable with that.

It didn't take long for Wang Li to notice a group of fellows following them, but whenever she turned to face them, they looked away to their own business of gazing at the sun.

"Go home, morons. She's already taken," Wang Li yelled at them. "If her master sees you, he'll murder you and your whole family."

A few uncomfortable gulps of swallowing breath and coughs sounded out in the surroundings, as most of them chose one direction or another and hurried away. From a slow, composed walk to a complete sprint.

"Your master is growing his fame pretty well," Wang Li commented to Xiaolin.

"Master would have simply scared them away," Xiaolin said, "for this."

"Which I did," added Wang Li.

Xiaolin couldn't argue with that. "You did a little more than scare them."

"True, anyway, let's enter. I still have to feed Rong'er before I can prepare you. Brace yourself Linlin, today you'll completely infatuate your master with your looks."
