Why are you all trying to win over me, the male supporting character?

How did she know her grandfather's temper?

Wait a minute, it seems he revealed her name before she even introduced herself!

Where did this dangerous man come from?!

Lu Chengzhou's ever-present smiling face is the most lethal.

He didn't actually intend to scare the little girl, and he knew she wouldn't really abandon them in the mountains, but he just couldn't stand her like that and wanted to bully her.

Girls should have a better temper.

It's not that men should have a better temper, but rather that a bad temper can easily lead to significant losses.

With so many of them, even if each of them slapped her once, it would be enough to make her buttocks swell up.

What will she ultimately get?

All that's left is a swollen butt and a good scolding.

As for ginseng?

Then forget about it.

Once something is in Lu Chengzhou's hands, it cannot be taken away by trickery or deception unless he voluntarily gives it up.

"Well, Vanilla, have you thought it through?"

Lu Chengzhou asked another question slowly.

Vanilla hesitated for a moment, but eventually gave in.

We can't let this dangerous man go home with her!

We had no choice but to send them back to camp first and then make further plans.

Her eyes were still fixed on Lu Chengzhou's trouser pocket.

She still really craves that precious ginseng root...

With this, she should have the tuition fees to go to school in a big city, right?

……

After half an hour.

Everyone returned to the camp safely.

The female teacher also breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the mist filling the valley, she felt a lingering fear.

The thought that I had so readily trusted a local I had never met was unbelievable.

Sure enough, a little girl's appearance can easily deceive people.

Who would have thought that this adorable vanilla would harbor such wicked intentions?

Lu Chengzhou didn't dare keep her for too long, so he offered to take her home.

When Vanilla heard him say that, she immediately shook her head and refused.

Unfortunately, she was no match for Lu Chengzhou.

Just as she was about to run away, Lu Chengzhou grabbed her by the back of her collar and lifted her up like a disobedient kitten.

vanilla:"……"

Have some decency!

You alien!

After living on Earth for so many years, don't you miss home?

Lu Chengzhou turned around, greeted the female teacher, and then decided to personally take Xiangcao back.

The female teacher was naturally extremely grateful.

"It's good to have someone escort them. It would be terrible if such a young child got lost."

She didn't trust Xiangcao, but she trusted Lu Chengzhou completely!

As for whether Lu Chengzhou will obediently send the little girl back...

Why would you need to doubt it?

Lu Chengzhou already has two beautiful girlfriends, Miss Meng and Miss Xu, so there's no way he would be interested in this skinny little girl.

So, amidst Xiangcao's tearful pleas, Lu Chengzhou took her away.

Meng Wanyu was not entirely at ease, so she sent a bodyguard to secretly follow them.

Xu Qian was even more worried, but just as she was about to secretly follow them, Meng Wanyu stopped her.

"If you go, you'll only cause trouble for Teacher Lu."

Meng Wanyu's seemingly innocuous remark caused great harm.

Xu Qian lowered her head and sighed in frustration.

However, she quickly remembered the bag of tools that Xiao Rui had left her before she came, so she stopped Meng Wanyu's bodyguard and handed the bag of tools to him.

"What if it comes in handy?"

The bodyguard opened the black plastic bag and looked through its contents.

Then, he gave Xu Qian a polite smile.

"Thank you."

Although he didn't need it, it was still a token of their goodwill, so the bodyguard put it in his pocket and quickly followed Lu Chengzhou.

……

On the road.

Lu Chengzhou vaguely remembered the description of the location of Xiangcao's hometown in the original work.

It's actually quite easy to find; just follow the pebbles on the ground.

The further you go, the wider the view becomes.

I also saw the vast expanse of azaleas described in the original work.

Passing through the flower field and continuing downhill, you soon reach a downhill section. Walk a little further, and you'll see the outline of a small mountain town.

Today happens to be market day in the town, and there are many vendors selling their wares, their voices quite loud.

"Can you put me down now?"

Vanilla flailed, trying to escape from Lu Chengzhou's grasp.

Unfortunately, Lu Chengzhou's strength was beyond her imagination.

There's no way they can escape!

Instead, the clothes were torn in a hole.

woo woo woo...

New clothes!

Vanilla felt like she was suffocating from the pain.

After walking a little further, Lu Chengzhou stopped.

At this moment, he saw an old man described in the original work.

He had a white towel wrapped around his head, squatted beside a tricycle, and was selling wild herbs while cracking his pipe.

The old man hissed as he looked up.

"Vanilla, what's wrong with you? Who is this man?!"

The old man's voice was very deep and resonant.

When he shouted that, everyone around looked over.

If there were a hole in the ground, the herbs would probably crawl into it.

Lu Chengzhou put down Xiangcao and gave the old man a kind smile: "Your Xiangcao is a good person. She just guided us in the mountains and helped us get out of the forest. I specially brought her back to thank you."

The old man was skeptical.

He looked at his granddaughter.

Vanilla was covered in mud, and she didn't look like she was just helping someone find a way. Instead, she looked like she had tricked someone and then tripped and fell.

After all, his granddaughter has always been mischievous and tricky, always trying to outsmart people.

Therefore, he was very skeptical of Lu Chengzhou's statement.

"Vanilla, what exactly happened?"

Vanilla shrank her neck, acting like an ostrich.

Forget it, what's the point of explaining?

Grandpa's tone clearly indicated that he had already guessed the cause and effect of the matter.

Whether she explains or not, she'll get a beating when she gets home.

"Hmph, you brat!"

The old man tapped his pipe and stood up.

They gathered up the few remaining herbs, tied them up, and placed them on the tricycle.

Actually, the place he lives is quite close to home; he can walk there. He's just being lazy.

"go home with me."

He got on the tricycle, turned around, and glanced at Lu Chengzhou.

“My granddaughter is immature and made a mistake. I, the old man, will make up for it.”

Vanilla lowered her head reluctantly.

She and Lu Chengzhou walked behind, while her grandfather rode his bicycle in front.
