Chapter 512

"Beauty, don't be afraid. We mean no harm, we just want to buy you a milk tea and make a friend."

"Yeah, yeah, stop lying to us. No one is looking over here, where's your boyfriend?"

The two young men looked at Xia Nuannuan with burning eyes, wearing smirks on their faces.

There were many beauties on this street, but one with such perfect looks and figure as the one before them was truly hard to find.

More importantly, this girl seemed to be without a companion, which made it even easier for them to hit on her.

"I'm not interested in making friends with you. And who's lying to you? Look, my boyfriend is coming over."

Xia Nuannuan gestured toward the direction of Qin Tian.

The two young men still looked disbelieving, not even glancing over there again, convinced that Xia Nuannuan was just trying to scare them.

The couple queuing behind Xia Nuannuan felt quite disdainful toward these two youths who were forcing themselves on her.

Especially the girl, who felt even more repulsed and disgusted, couldn't help but interject:

"You guys should leave quickly, her boyfriend really is coming over."

Her tall and burly boyfriend beside her gave her the courage to speak.

The two youths frowned at the girl, but were immediately intimidated by a glare from her boyfriend's tiger-like eyes.

Withdrawing their gaze, they turned their heads to look, and expressions of astonishment immediately appeared on their faces.

They saw a tall young man with handsome features walking quickly toward them with a dark face.

"Nuan Nuan, are you okay?"

Qin Tian asked loudly.

"I'm fine."

Xia Nuannuan replied hurriedly.

Seeing this, the two confirmed that this was indeed the so-called "boyfriend," and their jealousy was written all over their faces.

Qin Tian walked up, looked at the two youths with cold, dark eyes, and said indifferently, "Excuse me, you're blocking my way."

The two youths were stunned for a moment, then stared at him without moving, showing a rogue-like attitude of "what are you going to do about it?"

Behind Xia Nuannuan, the girl gave her boyfriend a look, signaling him to help if needed.

The boy nodded in understanding.

"I'll say it again, move aside, I need to get through."

Qin Tian emphasized his tone.

However, the two youths still didn't move, and one of them even crossed his arms.

Qin Tian couldn't be bothered to waste words, so he raised both hands and quickly pressed down on their shoulders.

Just as they were about to shout in anger, they suddenly felt a force from their shoulders, causing them to stumble a few steps to either side, nearly falling to the ground.

Qin Tian walked through the middle calmly, arrived in front of Xia Nuannuan, and smiled, "I'll just wait in this line with you!"

"Mm-hmm!"

Xia Nuannuan nodded her head with a sweet smile and reached out to hold his right arm.

After the two youths steadied themselves, they glared at Qin Tian, preparing to work together to get back at him.

"If I were you, I'd turn around and leave right now without a word."

The burly boy from the couple behind suddenly spoke up.

The two youths turned their gaze toward him.

"Still don't get it? The two of you together aren't enough for him to handle with one hand."

The boy said with disdain.

The two youths were very unconvinced, but thinking about how they had been pressed down without even being able to react, and the exaggerated strength he had shown, they swallowed the harsh words that were on the tip of their tongues.

"It was your fault to begin with, just leave!"

The girl also spoke up.

The two youths looked at each other and turned to leave without a word.

The onlookers around them whispered and pointed at the two leaving, and naturally, they weren't saying anything nice.

Hearing some of the words vaguely, the two felt their faces burning and quickened their pace, fleeing as if escaping.

"Thank you both!"

Xia Nuannuan turned her head and thanked the couple behind her with gratitude.

"No need, no need, we didn't really help much, your boyfriend is just very capable."

The girl waved her hand with a smile.

"I should still thank you. What are your names? I'm Qin Tian, and she's my girlfriend, Xia Nuannuan."

Qin Tian greeted them.

"I'm Zhou Xian, and this is my girlfriend, Xu Jiao."

The boy also introduced himself.

"Judging by your accents, are you locals?"

Qin Tian asked with a smile.

"Yeah, we're from Xingcheng. You can tell just from that?"

Xu Jiao looked surprised.

"Of course!"

Qin Tian nodded with a smile.

"What about you guys, here for a trip?"

Zhou Xian asked back.

"Yes, we're from Jiangcheng."

Xia Nuannuan answered with a sweet smile.

"Jiangcheng, we went there for a trip last year. The bean skin and hot dry noodles there are delicious, and the siu mai too, but they're all breakfast foods and full of carbs, easy to gain weight."

Xu Jiao said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what breakfast is like over there."

Xia Nuannuan agreed repeatedly with deep empathy.

"Our Xingcheng has a lot of snacks at night, and this street has basically all of them. Since you're here, you should try them all."

"That's for sure, that's exactly what we're planning."

"This shop's milk tea is pretty good, usually not too sweet. Having a cup after eating a lot is great for cutting the grease."

"Really? Which one do you recommend?"

"Hmm... if it's your first time, just get the signature one!"

"Okay, I'll order that one in a bit."

After a few simple jokes and casual chat, the two girls became familiar with each other.

Qin Tian and Zhou Xian also chatted, learning that they were also university students studying in different cities and had just returned after summer vacation started a few days ago.

After waiting for about fifteen minutes, they were finally near the front of the line.

"What would you like to drink? Let me treat you!"

Xia Nuannuan said to Xu Jiao with a smile.

"No need, no need, we'll get our own."

Xu Jiao waved her hands repeatedly to decline.

"Don't be polite, you helped us just now, it's only right that I treat you to a milk tea."

"Really, no need."

"Brother..."

Seeing she couldn't persuade Xu Jiao, Xia Nuannuan looked at Qin Tian beside her for help.

Qin Tian smiled and said, "It's like this, we're here in Xingcheng for the first time and are unfamiliar with everything. If you two are free, could you show us around to eat and play? Of course, as compensation, we should cover the expenses."

Xu Jiao and Zhou Xian looked at each other in surprise.

"Yes, yes, can you show us around? We want to eat the most authentic food here and go to the most fun places. It would be so much easier if someone showed us."

Xia Nuannuan said with excitement, looking at them with anticipation.

"We can, but the expenses..."

Xu Jiao hesitated.

"No need to say more, it's only natural that we treat."

Qin Tian raised his hand to interrupt her.

In the end, Xu Jiao and Zhou Xian couldn't refuse and agreed to Qin Tian's proposal.
