Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 689 690: Encountering a Loli on the Road

On the commercial street of the Imperial Capital, a handsome young figure could be seen. He wore a jacket over a T-shirt, paired with light blue casual pants and black sneakers. Though his outfit was ordinary, it radiated a certain charm.

It seemed as though any clothes worn by him would look exceptionally alluring. Coupled with his handsome face, he attracted quite a few glances.

This person was none other than Xiao Tianyu. After arriving in the Imperial Capital, he hadn't rushed to Emperor Star Academy to find Shangguan Biyue. He knew that in two days, it would be Shangguan Biyue's birthday, and suddenly showing up then would be quite a surprise, wouldn't it?

Passing by a traffic light intersection, Xiao Tianyu stood there, clearly waiting for the green light. Many others stood by him—men and women, young and old alike.

When the green light flashed, Xiao Tianyu walked across the zebra crossing with his hands in his pockets.

Vroom~

Suddenly, the sound of a sports car came from dozens of meters away, causing other pedestrians to panic, leaving Xiao Tianyu alone on the crossing.

It seemed a traffic tragedy was imminent, and the sports car showed no signs of braking, as if Xiao Tianyu was about to be sentenced to death by God, speeding to him in the blink of an eye.

Screech~

At that moment, the sound of tires skidding on the ground echoed, raising a cloud of dust, the car stopping right in front of Xiao Tianyu. He looked toward the sports car, but there was no ripple in his eyes.

"Has the traffic in the Imperial Capital always been this chaotic? Isn't anyone following the traffic rules?"

Inside, Xiao Tianyu was speechless, but moments later, several black Mercedes pulled up behind the sports car. A ponytailed girl stepped out, about the same age as Xiao Ziyan.

Her beautiful eyes glared at Xiao Tianyu, seemingly unaware that she had just run a red light, flagrantly violating traffic laws.

"This girl is really arrogant!"

Xiao Tianyu's dark eyes observed her, and he was reminded of Xiao Ziyan. When Xiao Ziyan was mischievous, she was probably just as unruly as this girl.

"What are you looking at? Never seen someone run a red light before?" The girl's pretty eyes glanced at Xiao Tianyu, with an air of defiance as if the sky was her elder, and she was the second in charge.

"..."

"..."

Xiao Tianyu was at a loss for words. What's going on? She ran a red light, yet somehow this girl still feels justified? Seeing her angry expression, Xiao Tianyu couldn't help but let out a wry smile.

He couldn't let himself argue with a little girl.

Just as Xiao Tianyu was about to walk away, the girl shouted, "You stand still!"

Huh?

Xiao Tianyu was taken aback, turning his gaze to the girl. He hadn't caused her any trouble, yet she was the one acting as if she had cause? Truly lacking in manners, had her parents never taught her any better?

"What are you looking at? Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, definitely thinking that I lack manners!" The girl's eyes glanced at Xiao Tianyu again, leaving him speechless. Could this girl read his mind too?

Alright, I'm letting it slide since you're young.

Thinking this, Xiao Tianyu averted his eyes from the girl and continued walking. Tap, tap, tap~ However, the girl, wearing red high heels, blocked Xiao Tianyu's path, and said, "Miss Beauty says stop!"

"Move aside!" It was the first meaningful thing Xiao Tianyu said to the girl.

"No way!" The girl snorted coldly.

At this time, three middle-aged men in suits got out of the parked Mercedes, and a subtle aura enveloped them, indicating they were Ancient Martial Artists.

By their demeanor, it was clear they were the girl's bodyguards, and her identity was evidently not ordinary.

Then, the leading middle-aged man spoke respectfully, "Miss, I think we should drop this matter."

"No way!" The girl snorted, "This guy blocked me from running a red light!"

"..." The statement left Xiao Tianyu at a loss for words. Blocked her from running a red light? Is there any logic here? And since when did running a red light become so reasonable?

Xiao Tianyu looked at the girl in front of him, truly lacking in manners.

"What are you looking at? Never seen a beauty before?" The girl snapped, causing Xiao Tianyu to laugh. How old was this little brat? Always calling herself a beauty, she was overly confident.

Alright, this girl, you're unbeatable.

Seeing Xiao Tianyu laugh, the girl thought he was mocking her, so she coldly commanded, "Take him away!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Tianyu's eyes looked at the girl helplessly, "Please understand, it was your violation of traffic rules, running a red light!"

"I don't care, I want to take you away!" The girl was unreasonable, leaving the men speechless. The middle-aged man cautiously addressed the girl, "Miss, this might not be a good idea."

"Didn't you hear what I said? Are you all trying to bully me too?"

"We wouldn't dare!" Saying so, the leading middle-aged man gazed at Xiao Tianyu and said, "Young man, would you mind coming with us for a while?"

"It's your Miss who broke traffic rules!" Xiao Tianyu said.

"I know!" The middle-aged man nodded, "Recently, our Miss has been in a bad mood, might you accommodate her this once? Rest assured, we guarantee your safety!"

The tone of the leading middle-aged man was filled with apology, showing he wasn't someone unreasonable, which made Xiao Tianyu feel odd. Even the subordinates were so understanding; why was this girl...

It seemed she was just as spoiled as Ziyan.

Xiao Tianyu glanced at the girl again, seeing a reflection of Xiao Ziyan in her.

But Xiao Tianyu had yet to be coerced by anyone, so he coldly replied, "What if I refuse?"

"Then we have no choice but to offend you!"

"So, I have no other choice?"

"Indeed!" The leading man nodded, then pulled out a bank card, offering it to Xiao Tianyu, "There's ten million on this card, please take it as compensation, and I ask for your forgiveness!"

"Ten million?"

"Indeed!"

"Do I look like I'm short on money?" said Xiao Tianyu, taking the card from the middle-aged man and continued, "Given that your Miss has a temperament very similar to my sister's, I'll overlook it!"

"..." The middle-aged man cast a peculiar glance at Xiao Tianyu, thinking, you sure want the money, why so many excuses? Yet, despite his disdain, he still offered apologies to Xiao Tianyu, "Then, sorry for the inconvenience!"

"It's alright!" Xiao Tianyu shook his head.

In truth, the reason he was willing to be taken away was because he saw the shadow of Xiao Ziyan in the girl, and from her beautiful eyes, he saw an innocent side.

"Once the Miss calms down, I assure you can leave!" With that, the leading middle-aged man escorted Xiao Tianyu to the black Mercedes behind. However, the girl interrupted again, "Let him sit in my car!"
