They don't actually think I like them, do they?

Mango seeds have all been arranged!

Mangzi firmly believes that after the last fireworks festival, Lin Han has developed a sense of romance and is no longer the unyielding blockhead he once was.

This date is sure to spark something between Mangzi and Lin Han, making him see her charm!

"Don't go."

On the phone, Mangzi received a cold reply from Lin Han.

"Eh...eh?"

Mangzi was stunned; she clearly hadn't expected such a response.

The girl quickly added, "It's so hot, why don't you go out and have some fun? It won't cost you any money."

Lin Han sighed heavily.

"Sister Mangzi, please find someone else. I don't really feel like going out lately."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Mangzi was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"What's going on?"

Seeing that her expression was off, Peach quickly came over and asked.

"Didn't my brother agree?"

"no!"

Mangzi looked like she was about to cry, and said dejectedly,

He said he doesn't want to go out lately!

"My abs, my swimsuit battle, waaaaaah!"

Mangzi rolled around on the big pink bed like a child.

All those preparations were for nothing if Lin Han didn't show up!

Peach had never seen Mangzi look so aggrieved, and she said anxiously,

"How could that be? There's no reason for my brother to refuse!"

"That's right!"

Mangzi just couldn't understand it.

If Lin Han doesn't leave the house after the money is in place, there are only two possibilities. First, he has other plans; second, he doesn't want to be associated with you.

The first one is ruled out, so could it be the second one?

"Could it be that my brother thinks this is too much like a date and doesn't want to go on a date with Sister Mangzi?" Peach said.

"No way, he never cares about that."

Not to mention that Lin Han has gone out with girls alone more than once or twice, and besides, Lin Han and Yan Yuli almost got into a fight last time, so how could he possibly be against going on a date?

"Ugh! So annoying!"

Mangzi, her face flushed, tossed and turned on the bed, scratching her head incessantly.

“I remember that when my brother and his friend were filming the music video for ‘Ugly Monster’ last time, he seemed to say something like ‘Stay away from women’ on set.”

Peach stroked her chin, staring at the ceiling in thought.

"Could it be that because his brother was played by that girl, he's now very averse to relationships...?"

As Taozi was speaking, she looked down and found that Mangzi was no longer on the bed, but standing at the door with her back to her.

Mangzi turned his head, his eyes icy cold, and a powerful killing intent emanated from his entire body.

"What's that girl's name?"

097. A Dark and Windy Night

After the last class on Friday, Xiaoya walked out of the school with her phone in her hand and hailed a Didi (ride-hailing service) at the gate.

Because her relatives' home in Baijing is far from the school, Xiaoya usually stays at school from Sunday to Thursday and goes back to her relatives' home on Friday and Saturday.

While she was waiting for the bus, several sharp-eyed people at the school gate noticed her.

"Look, it's Wang Ya..."

"Holy crap, it really is! I have to take a picture right away!"

"You know what, this guy is actually quite good-looking. No wonder he's a player..."

Xiaoya was already used to these discussions and hardly felt any emotional fluctuations.

Xiaoya has always been a very insightful person.

At first, Xiaoya would wear a mask and hat, worried that she would be recognized.

Now, as online opinions become increasingly heated and more and more girls support her, Xiaoya has even begun to enjoy the feeling of being noticed.

Fishing? Aquaman?

I didn't admit it.

but,

If she wasn't naturally beautiful, how could such rumors exist?

"The real-life inspiration for the female protagonist in Orange Jam's 'Ugly Monster' music video"—that sounds pretty good.

Xiaoya gently raised her head, closed her eyes, and breathed in the fresh air.

Speaking of which, I really do miss Xu Hui.

Since the day I confessed to him, I don't know how he found out about my date with the junior, but he hasn't contacted me since.

I've sent messages proactively a few times, but the replies I've received have all been very perfunctory.

Although Xiaoya felt that the cyberbullying she was subjected to stemmed from netizens standing up for Xu Hui, she did not think that Xu Hui was to blame.

After all, she had kept so many things from this clueless guy. He liked her so much, so it was normal for him to have a grudge against her after finding out that she was dating other guys.

Xiaoya felt very wronged when she was scolded!

Xu Hui ended up in this state because he had to suffer; what does it have to do with me?

It would be so nice to maintain this kind of relationship. I can have meals with you and make you imagine that you're on a date.

Why do you have to confess your feelings to me?

You really want to date me?

No other man is as impatient as you. Those men who are much better than you, Xu Hui, haven't even made a move yet. How dare you make a move?

He was rejected once, but he still wants to confess his feelings a second time!

When she was confessed to for the second time, she was actually a little moved. Considering that it had been half a month since the breakup, she impulsively agreed.

After going back and thinking it over calmly for a long time, I finally came up with a way to break up that "allows everyone to have dignity".

Why do you have to break through that thin layer of paper?

Why is this guy always so self-important and inexplicably confident?!

Every time Xiaoya thinks of this, she has to let out a heavy sigh.

Xiaoya plans to find a time to make an exception and give Hui Da another chance to have dinner with her, so they can talk things out.

Xiaoya believed that as long as she used her charm and talked to Xu Hui properly, given how infatuated that idiot was with her, she could definitely clear up the misunderstanding by giving him a little sweet talk.

Once he reconciles with Xu Hui, there will be no more online discussions. Then, all the problems will be solved!

......

"4396."

Once in the back seat of the car, Xiaoya gave the last few digits of her phone number.

The driver didn't say anything and released the handbrake.

Just then, Xiaoya noticed the driver's fingers, which had exquisite manicures.

It seems to be a female driver.

Who knows?

When I take a Didi ride at night and encounter a female driver, I feel so safe, okay?!

With so many news reports online about encountering lewd male taxi drivers, who wouldn't be scared after reading them?

In particular, there was a news story where a female college student was taking a ride-hailing car when she noticed the driver was veering off course. Terrified, she had no choice but to jump out of the car, which resulted in her losing her young life.

This kind of news just shows how many perverted men there are these days! It's so tragic for girls; they really don't know how to protect themselves in situations like this!

Those men online are actually attacking this girl! They have no idea how badly women are oppressed these days! There are just too many perverted men out there, and women are living in misery every day!

The driver was finally sentenced to a year in prison, which is truly gratifying! Serves him right for not following the navigation!

Every male driver is a potential criminal!

"Excuse me, this route has a lot of traffic lights. Can I take you down another side road?"

Just then, the female driver turned her head and said to Xiaoya.

"Sure," Xiaoya replied happily.

The female driver is very pretty.

She also has a head of smooth, golden hair.

This makes me feel so safe!

Xiaoya then put on her headphones and started scrolling through short videos.

In the rearview mirror, a pair of cold eyes remained fixed on her, a glimmer of light flashing in the darkness.

I do not know how long it has been.

The car suddenly stopped.

Xiaoya looked up in confusion. The surroundings were dilapidated, with construction waste scattered haphazardly on the ground, and the bright moonlight shining on the dusty cement floor.

She quickly took off her headphones and was surprised to find that the car had somehow driven into an abandoned factory!

"Boom!"

There was a knock on the window on the left, and the blonde girl pressed her face against the window.

"what!!"

Xiaoya screamed and shrank back.

Mangzi opened the car door, then grabbed Xiaoya's hair as if she were a little rabbit, easily pulling her out and walking into the abandoned building.

"Help me!!"

Although she didn't understand what was happening, the instinct for survival made Xiaoya struggle and scream.

However, the blonde girl in front of her looked younger than her, but she was incredibly strong, and no matter how much she struggled, she couldn't budge her an inch.

"boom!"

Mangzi grabbed Xiaoya by the collar and slammed her against the concrete wall. Xiaoya's hair was disheveled, and her feet were dangling in the air.

"If you shout again, I'll kill you right now," Mangzi said calmly.

Through the bright moonlight, Xiaoya saw those eyes, as cold as an ancient glacier.

It's as if... she really did kill someone.

Xiaoya's tears flowed quickly.

She trembled uncontrollably, and dared not speak again. She knew that the girl before her truly intended to kill her.

Seeing that Xiaoya no longer resisted, Mangzi picked her up, ignoring the sign on the wall next to him that read "Entry is strictly prohibited. Violators will be held responsible for the consequences," and began to walk up the stairs.

This abandoned, unfinished building has no safety measures and is pitch black all around. Looking down the side of the stairs, it feels as if a slight slip could send you tumbling into an abyss.
