Let me pinch your ears,” Xu Zimo said playfully, clearly interested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s face instantly turned red, like a ripe apple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“T-that’s not allowed,” she stammered. “Auntie said only my future husband can touch my ears.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then forget it,” Xu Zimo waved his hand and lay back on the stone, pretending to nap again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long while, Xu Zimo felt someone poking him with a finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head and saw the girl crouching beside him, her face blushing as she said shyly, “I’ll let you touch them, but you can’t tell anyone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo chuckled, looking just like a mischievous uncle luring a little girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded and looked at the soft, cute cat ears, then reached out to pinch them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a loud shout came from the nearby forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Scoundrel! Don’t touch that girl!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with the voice, a blazing red fireball shot toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo glanced at the fireball, clenched his right fist, and with spiritforce swirling around, punched it head-on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a bang, the fireball shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that exact moment, Xu Zimo used his left hand to lightly pinch the girl's cat ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Meow!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s face turned bright red, and she let out a cat-like cry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the dust from the explosion settled, a woman in a red robe walked out from the nearby forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie…” the cat-eared girl called out timidly when she saw her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ajue, come here!” the woman said sternly, keeping a watchful eye on Xu Zimo while calling the girl over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl looked very nervous, her face even redder than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She mumbled under her breath, “What should I do? My ears were touched… Will Auntie make me marry him?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just keep that to yourself. Do you have to say it out loud?” Xu Zimo glanced at her and said helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t want to get into trouble just for pinching some ears out of curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh… okay,” the girl replied, her face burning hot, not even daring to look Xu Zimo in the eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had always been alone growing up and had never spoken much with men, let alone let someone touch her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who let you come out here?” the woman asked sternly once the girl had come over, clearly relieved Xu Zimo hadn’t done anything more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I… I just wanted to see the outside world,” the girl replied, lowering her head in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman wanted to scold her more, but seeing her about to cry, she just sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning to Xu Zimo, she said, “Young master, I hope you’ll forget everything you saw today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, she pulled the unwilling girl along and walked back into the depths of the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo didn’t say anything more. The girl was interesting, but that was all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That woman was also from the Spirit Cat Race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo didn’t know much about the Spirit Cat Race, just another small and insignificant race.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like most of the thousands of minor races, they were ordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had wanted to nap a little longer, but a noisy group of people came down the nearby path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were loud enough that Xu Zimo lost any desire to rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even from far away, he could hear his cousin Wenren Suo’s booming voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s the big deal? Whatever Lady Xian’er wants, I’ll find it for her once I get back, faster than you for sure!” Wenren Suo said indignantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll thank you in advance, Young Master Suo,” came a girl’s voice from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It sounded refreshing and lovely, very pleasant to the ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll be waiting for good news from you, Brother Suo. Don’t just talk big,” a man beside her said mockingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo turned to look and saw a group of about a dozen people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the front stood Wenren Suo and a young man in blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surrounding them, a group of youths crowded around a young woman like stars around the moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wore a long green dress that flowed like a lotus flower, gently spreading outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her waist was covered a bit loosely, so her figure couldn’t be clearly seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her skin was fair, her eyes bright and lively, with a slightly mischievous look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had delicate features, cherry lips, arched brows, and long white hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her snow-white hair reached down to her waist, adding an unusual charm to her aura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the group passed by, Wenren Suo noticed Xu Zimo reclining on the stone and quickly shouted, “Cousin!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zimo slowly sat up, and instantly all eyes turned to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Done with your date with Lady Xian’er?” Xu Zimo asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can see we’re a perfect match, right?” Wenren Suo laughed. “But don’t get the wrong idea. We’re just friends.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Like cousin, like brother,” the man in blue said with a hint of disdain. His expression looked a bit sour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Talking like that about Lady Xian’er before anything’s confirmed doesn’t seem appropriate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly,” a few other young men muttered quietly, though they didn’t dare say much due to the Wenren Clan’s status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wan Hong, Lady Xian’er herself didn’t say anything. Why are you acting like a busybody?” Wenren Suo snorted coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All this while, Lady Xian’er simply smiled calmly and didn’t say a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her dark eyes, full of curiosity, stayed fixed on Xu Zimo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Wenren Suo and Wan Hong were about to argue, maybe even fight, Lady Xian’er finally smiled and said softly, “It’s getting dark. Gentlemen, you should head back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lady Xian’er, just wait. I’ll find the Dragon Tail Flower you wanted as soon as possible,” Wenren Suo said, glaring at Wan Hong before turning to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then some servants from the garden came out and escorted the group out of Feather Porch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After exiting, Wan Hong gave Xu Zimo a dark look and warned, “Watch your mouth, punk. If something happens to you, the Wenren Clan won’t start a war with the Wan Clan over it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Wan Hong, Xu Zimo was probably just a side branch of the Wenren Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cousin, likely. He already knew all the main clan’s members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh? You threatening me?” Xu Zimo looked at him calmly, then suddenly kicked him between his legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a powerful kick and completely unexpected.\u003C\u002Fp>",1086,"2026-06-06T01:06:40.721Z",1,"novelbin.me","834aa78b489fadef32a89b008eb56ccb3f2957b6891466d8d705470b041674ea","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-449","i-really-am-a-villain-chapter-447",1822,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-really-am-a-villain-cover.jpg"]
