Chapter 700
But if she met that situation in real life, she absolutely had to prevent the "tragedy" from happening!
There will always be creatures on the ground who dare to face Boss Han's terrifying light head-on!
But Customer Xingqiu also knew full well how terrifying Boss Han was.
So her plan was to avoid a direct confrontation,
and after "saving" that pitiful girl, leave quickly.
"Ah!"
Customer Xingqiu shouted loudly to bolster her own courage, then made as if to rush forward.
However, she was grabbed back by Chongyun from behind.
"Chongyun, why are you holding me back? I'm going to save that girl!"
Customer Xingqiu turned around and struggled as she spoke.
"Save who? That's Lady Keqing! She's a perfect match with the boss, a match made in heaven — what business is it of yours to save anyone?"
Seeing Customer Xingqiu's agitated look, Chongyun was a bit speechless.
Although he himself had shared the same thought as his friend just now.
But upon seeing that woman's face, he immediately stopped worrying.
Even though he didn't know why Lady Keqing was in such a state.
It was obviously not the "coercion" they had assumed!
It looked more like… flirting?
Just the playful affection between a young couple!
"Eh? That girl is… is Lady Keqing?!"
Hearing this fact, Customer Xingqiu was dumbfounded.
For a moment she stood there in a daze.
"Why don't you go see for yourself!"
Chongyun shrugged, then let go.
He also knew his friend had calmed down.
"Let me look!"
Thinking of this, Customer Xingqiu looked toward the counter.
Now she saw clearly!
It really was Lady Keqing!
It's just that because of her outfit earlier, Customer Xingqiu hadn't recognized her at first.
"Heh~ Still going up to save her?"
Seeing Customer Xingqiu standing awkwardly in place, Chongyun teased with a smile.
"No, no! It's Lady Keqing, then never mind!"
Customer Xingqiu awkwardly rubbed her nose.
Lady Keqing was the Yu Heng star — how could she possibly be bullied by someone like that!
And the boss wasn't that kind of person either!
Mainly because she had just finished reading the manga, her mind was full of the shadow of Little Dragon Girl,
so for a moment her blood had rushed to her head.
Good thing Chongyun had held her back.
Otherwise, if she had interrupted those two's good time, she would probably have been in trouble.
"No, I have to go express my apologies!"
Sensing something was off, Customer Xingqiu quickly made a decision,
then hurried toward the counter.
Chongyun didn't stop her either.
Even though her starting point was good, she had nearly offended those two after all.
So expressing an apology was still very necessary.
Sensing someone approaching, Han Feng also stopped,
and didn't continue teasing the cat-eared girl beside him.
"Phew!"
Seeing this, Keqing also let out a breath of relief.
But in her heart there was still a tiny bit of reluctance.
If only it could be like this all the time,
it seemed… not bad?
Han Feng didn't know the wandering thoughts in Keqing's heart, and looked at Customer Xingqiu and Chongyun walking up to the counter.
He said with a smile.
"Finished reading the manga?"
"Ahem, finished!"
Seeing Boss Han's unfathomable smile, Customer Xingqiu suddenly felt a bit flustered.
If it had truly been an act of chivalry, there'd be nothing to worry about.
But the moment she thought about how she'd misunderstood, she felt a chill on her scalp.
She hurriedly began to apologize.
"Boss, Lady Keqing, I'm truly sorry—I misunderstood you both just now! Please forgive me!"
He then assumed a posture of sincere apology.
