Fox Demon: Why did your brother beat you up every day at the beginning of the month?

Dongfang Haoyang blushed even more as he looked at the slender little hand holding his.

Tu Shan Rongrong's little hands were very soft and white, like a baby's hands...

Damn it, if I had known I'd had more relationships in my past life, I wouldn't be in this mess now, not even having touched a cute girl's hand...

But dating is dating, and being a simp like his brother is something Haoyang would never do. He has his own life and his own things to do, and while love is an important part of life, it's not his whole life.

Dongfang Haoyang glanced at Tu Shan Rongrong's profile. She was cute, fair-skinned, and her emerald green eyes were as beautiful as jade. Her light pink lips were full and moist...

Wearing a pale yellow dress with a green-lined bodice, Rongrong exudes a quiet and dignified air, giving her the air of a well-bred lady.

Tu Shan Rongrong chuckled and turned her gaze over. The two exchanged a glance, and Dongfang Haoyang slowly turned his face away.

At the same time, he opened a gap in the Divine Fire Dragon Bell, allowing himself and Rongrong to enter the village.

Tu Shan Rongrong smiled even more happily and looked at Dongfang Haoyang as she spoke.

"Hehe, young master, I heard there's a steamed bun shop in the village that makes buns with thin skins and lots of filling. Let's go there for a simple meal."

In fact, Dongfang Haoyang really wanted to refuse, because he and Tushan Yaya had already eaten. At his aunt's house, Tushan Yaya had saved a few buns for him. However, looking at Tushan Rongrong's expectant expression, he found it really hard to say the word "refuse".

"I'd be honored to accept your invitation, Miss Rongrong."

"Um."

Tu Shan Rongrong led Dongfang Haoyang by the hand, and soon they entered the village.

Suddenly remembering something, Dongfang Haoyang leaned close to Tu Shan Rongrong's ear and whispered a few words.

"By the way, the villagers in this village are a bit gossipy. I think we should keep a low profile to avoid being misunderstood by them."

"Keep a low profile? A misunderstanding?"

"Yeah, we really should keep a lower profile..."

Tu Shan Rongrong nodded slightly, but her little hand showed no intention of letting go.

Dongfang Haoyang's lips twitched, and he pointed to his hand that was being tightly gripped.

"Then this..."

"Ah, I don't mind," Tu Shan Rongrong said, continuing to walk with Dongfang Haoyang in her hand.

I mind!

Dongfang Haoyang smiled helplessly (a forced smile), and the two walked hand in hand into the village.

"Hero! Everyone, look! The little hero has entered the village!"

The villagers rushed forward and lifted Dongfang Haoyang up, tossing him forcefully into the air.

The battle was so loud and close to the village that the villagers of Daoxiang Village witnessed the entire process of Dongfang Haoyang fighting three giant bear demons alone.

The giant bear demon was an extremely ferocious and man-eating evil demon. Dongfang Haoyang killed three of them by himself, not only saving the villagers of Daoxiang Village, but also gaining their respect and gratitude.

"Thank you, little hero! Without you, our Daoxiang Village would have been in grave danger!"

"Little hero, do you want to learn to write? My family has been a family of calligraphers for twelve generations!"

"Little hero, do you want to learn music? I'm a pro at playing the suona!"

"Little hero, want a wife? I've been a matchmaker for twenty years, specializing in arranging childhood betrothals!"

The villagers were very grateful to Dongfang Haoyang and enthusiastically tossed him high into the air and caught him again and again.

Dongfang Haoyang was a little confused and at a loss. He could only look to Tushan Rongrong for help.

He felt it was his duty to slay the evil demon, but he was indeed somewhat at a loss when faced with the villagers' enthusiasm.

"Alright, Young Master Haoyang is a bit tired now. Let him rest for a while."

"Alright, Third Master."

Dongfang Haoyang looked at the villagers respectfully bowing to Tu Shan Rongrong and was somewhat puzzled.

Third Master? These villagers all call Tu Shan Ya Ya "Second Miss Tu Shan Ya Ya," so why are they calling Tu Shan Rong Rong "Third Master"...?

"let's go."

Tu Shan Rongrong smiled, took his hand again, and walked towards the center of the village.

The villagers stared wide-eyed as the two figures walked away into the distance!

"Wait, wait a minute, Mom, am I seeing things? I remember the little hero came with Miss Ya Ya this morning, how come he's the third leader now!"

Looking at Dongfang Haoyang and Tushan Rongrong holding hands in front of her, Aunt Li was a little unsure how to answer her son. After thinking for a moment, she shook her head and smiled.

"Three wives and four concubines, huh? Oh my, which lord in a noble family doesn't have three wives and four concubines? But young hero, you certainly have quite a few romantic encounters. Well, young people like you know how to have fun."

Soon, Dongfang Haoyang and Tu Shan Rongrong arrived at the steamed bun shop, and the shop owner was stunned when he saw the two of them!

"Uh, is the Third Master here to eat steamed buns..."

Tu Shan Rongrong shook her head slightly.

"Boss, can you calculate this for me?"

The steamed bun shop owner was dumbfounded. How could this be accounted for?! Who would have thought that this thick-browed, big-eyed young man was two-timing someone else!

In the morning, he was with the second young lady, but in the afternoon, he became the third leader!

He smiled helplessly, did some quick calculations, and then froze.

"Holy crap, it really exists!"

"What is it?"

Dongfang Haoyang's lips twitched slightly. Tu Shan Rongrong brought him here to eat steamed buns...

And this isn't the same gossipy boss from this morning...

The steamed bun shop owner looked at Dongfang Haoyang with an expression of envy, jealousy, and hatred! Then he forced a stiff smile.

"several……"

Tu Shan Rongrong stared at the owner of the steamed bun shop, her lovely smile vanished, and she gripped Haoyang's hand much tighter, her fingertips turning white. Dongfang Haoyang could clearly feel a low vortex rising around Tu Shan Rongrong!

Is Tu Shan Rongrong... angry?

The boss rubbed his temples, did some quick calculations, and then helplessly held up two fingers.

"If you ask again, Boss, you'll be revealing a secret. I can't say any more."

"Wait, I'll ask just one more question, the last one!"

"Do I know him...?"

The boss crossed his arms, nodded, and didn't say anything.

"Big or small!"

The steamed bun shop owner was almost in tears when he saw Tu Shan Rongrong staring at him with a serious expression. Didn't we agree that you would only ask one question? Boss Rong, you didn't keep your word!

"Third Master, are you trying to kill me?!"

Seeing that Tu Shan Rongrong remained silent, still staring at him seriously, the boss sighed helplessly.

"Alright! Anyway, you saved my life, so I'll gladly die for you today!"

As he spoke, the shop owner gritted his teeth and wrote down two large characters.

Upon seeing the large characters, Tu Shan Rongrong's expression softened considerably. Her previously cold emerald eyes narrowed again, and a smile appeared on her face.

But the sky, which had been clear just moments before, suddenly became overcast, with flashes of lightning within the thick clouds.

"What's going on? Is it going to rain?"

"Hey, it's going to rain! Everyone hurry home and bring in the laundry!"

Someone in the village said something, and everyone started carrying basins to bring in the clothes that had been drying outside.

"What were those questions you asked the boss just now? I don't understand them at all..." Dongfang Haoyang asked Tu Shan Rongrong, puzzled.

"Hehe, it's a secret!" Tu Shan Rongrong hummed as if she were in a good mood, taking the packaged buns from the boss.

Dongfang Haoyang looked at the steamed bun shop owner in a daze, but the owner suddenly threw something over to him. Dongfang Haoyang caught it and saw that it was a silver ingot.

"What do you mean by giving me money?!"

The shop owner didn't answer the bewildered Dongfang Haoyang, but simply gave him a thumbs up!

He thought to himself: Dude, you're awesome!

"Hmph, then we'll take our leave." Tu Shan Rongrong rarely showed a happy smile, and took Dongfang Haoyang's hand, intending to return to Tu Shan.
