Chapter 941
"What? Hero saving the beauty?" Owen didn't take Shen Xing's warning seriously at all. On the contrary, he turned his head and exchanged a playful look with the brother beside him, sneering, the provocation in his tone almost overflowing, "If I don't let go, what can you do?"
He tilted his head, looking at Shen Xing with a slouch, his brows raised high, that annoying look, wishing he could write the two words "looking for trouble" on his face.
The fire in Shen Xing's eyes rushed up instantly, his knuckles clenched until they cracked, and his whole body tightened, ready to rush up to grab the person. But just as his steps moved, his wrist was suddenly pulled hard by Bai Lianghe behind him.
Shen Xing turned his head abruptly and met Bai Lianghe's gaze. She shook her head slightly, her eyes calm and firm, silently signaling him not to be impulsive—hard-hitting at this time, the other party had four people, and Shen Xing was alone. He would only suffer, and it would implicate Mujin who was surrounded.
Shen Xing gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart. But in the next second, he saw Bai Lianghe let go of his hand, step forward, and walk toward Owen step by step.
Seeing Bai Lianghe take the initiative to walk over, Owen was also stunned. The playfulness on his face froze for a few minutes. Obviously, he didn't expect this girl who looked cold and weak to take the initiative to step forward. This was completely beyond his prediction.
Near, Bai Lianghe stood still, her eyes fell on the arm Owen raised, and then slowly shifted to Owen's face, saying softly: "Making things difficult for girls isn't much of a skill, right?"
Owen looked at Bai Lianghe, but the brother beside him subconsciously took half a step forward, stiffened his neck, and scolded: "What do you want to do?"
"Shut up!" Owen glared at that brother fiercely, and the boy shrank his neck in fear and retreated in a dejected manner.
Owen turned to look at Bai Lianghe, looked her up and down, and pulled out a few more rogue smiles on his face: "What did you mean just now?"
Bai Lianghe met Owen's gaze, didn't dodge, and even raised her eyebrows slightly, her tone adding a bit of firmness: "Literal meaning—meaning I look down on you."
As soon as this was said, the surroundings became quiet for a few minutes. A girl, standing in front of him like this, blatantly provoking him? Owen was completely stunned. In this club, even among boys, not many dared to talk to him like this. Everyone knew he was black-handed, and no one dared to offend him.
He stared at Bai Lianghe's cold and beautiful face. After a long while, he actually laughed lowly. Unexpectedly, he didn't make things difficult for Bai Lianghe, nor did he vent his anger on her, but nodded lightly instead.
"Okay, I'll give you this face." Owen looked at Bai Lianghe with a smile, but the topic changed abruptly. He raised his hand and pointed at Shen Xing opposite, his tone sinking instantly, warning: "But you kid, pay attention next time! If you fall into my hands again, I'll definitely make you look good!"
Shen Xing was naturally unconvinced, his fists were clenched until they were congested, but Yu Qian and Xu Qinmei pulled his clothes from behind, one on each side, for fear that he would really rush up and fight with others.
And Shen Xing was angry, but he wasn't stupid. If they really fought, it would inevitably be four against one, and it might implicate several girls.
So he could only endure it.
Bai Lianghe was quick-eyed and fast-handed. Taking advantage of the gap when Owen was speaking, she pulled Mujin behind her to protect her, turned around, and was about to leave.
But just after taking a step, she was called by Owen, his tone carrying a hint of unwilling ambiguity, speaking to Mujin: "Hey, I really like you. Why don't you consider it again?"
Being confessed to so directly in front of so many people, Mujin was both shy and annoyed. Her cheeks turned red instantly, and she lowered her head at a loss, and even her ear roots were dyed with a thin layer of red.
Bai Lianghe frowned, a flash of impatience in her eyes. When she turned around, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, ignored Owen, and pulled Mujin to walk quickly.
Yu Qian and Xu Qinmei also quickly pulled the frustrated Shen Xing to follow, not wanting to entangle with this group of people for even a second.
After everyone left, a brother reacted and leaned to Owen's side, looking surprised: "Brother Wen, just let them go like this? We didn't even get their WeChat!"
Owen glanced at him and snorted coldly: "What? You still want to do something to the girls? Isn't it shameful?"
"No, that WeChat..."
"What's the rush? Ask for it next time." Owen raised his hand to brush the bangs in front of his forehead, put on a look he thought was handsome, and his tone was full of imbalance, "You say, how did the coaching staff divide the groups? I don't know how to share the rain and dew, all the girls were put together with that kid. Why does he have this good fate?"
"Brother Wen, those girls were originally from Shen Xing's school team, did you forget again?" Someone reminded.
Owen realized: "Oh, right, I remember, it's really maddening..."
Saying that, he suddenly looked at the others and asked seriously: "Who is more handsome, me or Shen Xing?"
Everyone: "..."
A moment of silence, a few people looked at each other—this question, who dares to answer wrong?
"That must be Brother Wen, you are handsome! You look so upright!"
"Exactly!"
After reacting, several people said one after another. As a result, just as Owen raised his satisfied smile, he heard another brother say: "Shen Xing is just a bit whiter and a bit taller than you, Brother Wen."
Owen's smile froze, and he slapped the other party's head backhanded: "Can you speak?"
He hates it most when others say he is short, and is 1.75 meters considered short?
That Shen Xing looks only a few centimeters taller than him!
Damn it, go back and add two more layers of height-increasing insoles!
As soon as Bai Lianghe left the tea room, the breath she had been holding in her chest was instantly released, and her heart beat with it.
She held her heart, became nervous with lingering fear, but still looked at Mujin with concern for the first time: "Are you okay?"
Mujin shook her head: "It's okay, thank you, Bai Bai."
Yu Qian looked at Bai Lianghe, also full of lingering fear: "You are really bold. Aren't you afraid that they would even hit girls?"
"Do I look like I'm not afraid?" Bai Lianghe exhaled: "I was scared to death."
She hadn't encountered such a thing either. Just now it was all a gamble, betting that Owen and the others wouldn't do anything to girls.
Shen Xing stood on the side, looking at Bai Lianghe's slightly pale face. His lips moved, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to speak.
Bai Lianghe saw through his thoughts, took the initiative to look at him, and said seriously: "In that situation just now, you can't be hard on them anymore. I bet he wouldn't do anything to girls, but he wouldn't show mercy to you. Just now, if you had talked back one more sentence, he would have definitely done it."
If they really fought, where could they, a few girls, stop it? The one who would suffer would only be Shen Xing!
Shen Xing looked at her, the emotions in his eyes gradually calmed down. After calming down, there was only a bit of guilt and helplessness left. He nodded lightly. He knew Bai Lianghe was right.
