Surviving in Woman's world as a novel villain.



"Alex!!"

As Alex reached the place he left the trio to go meet with Isabella, Xiao Bai quickly left Grace's side and ran towards him as she saw him making Grace once again feel complicated.

"Did you miss me, Xiao Bai? Here look what I brought for you."

Alex smiled as she came and hugged his waist, Sticking close to his body with no intention to allow him to leave her anymore.

He know it should be too hard for her this time, So he let her be, As he rubbed her head dotingly as he with his other hand gave her 4 pieces of fish he brought from the system.

"Water meat!!"

Alex did not know if he laugh or cry as Xiao Bai reacted with the same enthusiasm seeing the fried fish as she did when she saw him.

Anyway, he did not bother with the issue, Xiao Bai also did not see him as her eyes were on the fish which was in her hands now. She could not wait to take a bite. She indeed craved the fish for a while.

They leave the game store because of it but sadly in the mall, no one sells fish at all, Most of the dining places were closed and others were just selling generic stuff.

This might be because it is still noon, So they close the store or this might be the effect of the mall not doing well business, Which is ironic as this is the city's no.1 mall, though now that was nothing but an old name.

So Xiao Bai had to be disappointed not being able to eat the thing she was craving for. She never tasted it but her instincts here told her it would be good, Making her crave for it.

"Yo-You take one, Just one."

But she did not start eating, Rather she walked to Grace and offered her one fish in her cute childish voice.

"Ohh, you are giving me one? If so, thank you very much, Xiao Bai."

Grace was also affected by Xiao Bai's cuteness. This might be her second strongest power, Of course the first one is her being an S-Rank powerhouse.

Before Grace did not want to take it from her and politely decline it but something snapped in her mind as she decided to pick up the smallest fish from her hands.

Xiao Bai smiled quietly as she saw the big fish was still there then after a little hesitation she walked to Liza. She did not say anything, Not even look in her direction but did put the forward fish in her hands towards Liza.

"You are also offering me? Then don't mind me, I don't like fish but you offered how can I deny a cute thing like you."

Liza had a very friendly smile on her face now. She was also talking in a very polite manner as if she did not mind how because of Xiao Bai she was forced to wear this lolita uniform. She very understandingly said to Xiao Bai as she had forgiven her actions.

'Not good.'

But when Alex saw these alarms go off in his head, Now that he learned one thing that is If the heroine is not acting in her usual way then she definitely is upto no good at all, This is a tried and tested thing he picked up.

"Huh???!!"

As Alex thought Liza was upto no good, She directly reached for the fish in Xiao Bai's hands and picked up the biggest fish from the bunch, The one Xiao Bai was eyeing on was in Liza's hand.

Liza did not waste any second, She brought that fish to her mouth and took a bite at it in the misty eyes of Xiao Bai.

Xiao Bai was really shocked and was on the verge of crying. She offered it.as a courtesy, She never thought anyone was going to pick it up as who eats just a fish alone? But to her disbelief Grace did but thankfully she only picked the smallest one.

So she did not mind much about her. Also she liked Grace. That's why there was no extreme reaction but the story with Liza is different, They both did not like each other at all.

Xiao Bai is a well-mannered girl who only offered fish to her because she knew Liza might not accept it or decline it but this woman not only did not decline but picked up the biggest fish.

Then in front of her eyes, Xiao Bai was not sure what she would do now. She was surely angry but also hurt. This was the first time she felt this new emotion. She could not understand how to react.

"Xiao Bai, Don't cry, Don't worry, You still have two left, Why not eat them before they go cold?"

Alex had to act quickly. He could also see Xiao Bai did not know how to control her anger, So he quickly came to her and held her shoulders to prevent any unexpected action against Liza.

"Mum!!? Why is this soo good? Where did you buy this Alex?"

Liza did not pay any attention to Xiao. She was looking in shock at the fried fish in her hand. She tasted all the delicacy the world has to offer but she never ate something like this.

This taste is so simple but she could not get enough of it. A simple thing but that is what makes this a unique dish.

"We have a more serious problem here to deal with Liza. You have the guts to provoke an S-rank warrior that is a legendary beast. Do you understand what would happen if I did not stop her right now?"

Alex was not having it. Of course, the fish tasted good, which is a system product but he has a more important thing to deal with here.

He could feel the rage burning inside Xiao Bai through his contract connection with her, Sp he was sure that if he did not stop Xiao Bai when he did, Liza would have had a hard time.

She will not die, Not only because no matter how angry Xiao Bai will be she is still too innocent to kill someone yet but Harem protection halo will also kick in preventing any lethal harm to Liza.

This is a reason why he was ready to let this woman be alone together by themselves. It's just that the Harem protection halo only protects from lethal life-threatening things making it impossible for them to die.

But they can still get seriously injured, He also did not have any holy blessings or uses left, Which means Liza was going to have a very painful and terrible experience if Xiao Bai decided to take revenge.

"I understand, But I don't need to worry. After all, you are here, So why should I be afraid of her? I did not start this fight she did, I was just paying her back, So do-don't blame me."

Liza happily nibbled on the fish making others confused about who is the beast. She did not take Alex's words seriously. She was sure that he would stop anything bad from happening. Her confidence was coming from there.

That's why when they are just three people, Liza did not do anything to Xiao Bai as she knew the horror of an S-Rank. Here hidden guards could not do anything in front of the might of a powerhouse of that rank.

But here, In front of Alex, she was fearless. She knows he will not let anything bad happen to her.

"Are you not ashamed to say something like that about a man as a woman?"

Alex was helpless in front of her argument. Yes, of course, he will not let anything bad happen to her but that does not mean she can exploit that fact.

As said countless times before, Women here are way too stronger than men, So women saying she needs a man's help is looked down upon and considered unwomanly behaviour.

"Why should I be ashamed? Did you not hear that Aunty said I am a kid, Kid should be protected, So there is nothing wrong in what I said."

Liza surprisingly already had a counter to his question, She looked at him with a smug smile as she said without an ounce of shame.

'Why is she more cranky than usual?'

Alex was taken aback as he heard her words, It's not a surprise for him that Liza could come up with an argument as he knows she is a very smart woman, She is just stupid enough to not use that brain of hers.

It's just her behaviour is quite strange right now. She is sometimes not in a good mood but it was never this bad. Something surely happened that he was unaware of.

"Y-You bad woman."

Amidst of Alex's thinking, Xiao Bai finally recovered and was able to hold herself back from crying, She then pointed at Liza as she said to her as if she was saying something extreme to her in a childish voice.

"I am bad, But tell me are you going to eat those?"

Liza did not care about what Xiao Bai saying, She had already finished her fish in her hand and now her eyes were on the fish in Xiao Bai's hands. There was full intent in her eyes to try to get those fish from Xiao Bai.

"No!! Alex protects me with water meat."

Xiao Bai reacted unexpectedly as she quickly hid behind Alex protecting the remaining two fishes in her hands.

Alex just had to shake his head and look at Liza with warning, He did not understand how this woman works.

He just hopes others stay sane and not turn like these two ones.
