The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 1240 Watching The Show

But no matter how reluctant Zhao Li Xin was to face these strange women whose names he didn't even know or had probably forgotten, he had no other choice but to solve this problem or else he would lose more of his precious time.

Zhao Li Xin took a deep breath then he took the earbuds from his ears then placed them back in their place after that he leaned on the chair and lazily crossed his legs, "You will pay for the...um, damage, right?" because he still not fluent with the language Zhao Li Xin speak slowly alas they took his behavior as mockery. 

"Hi sir, my friend is still trying to be nice to you, you should respect us instead you dare to belittle us, who do you think you are, just because your face is a bit good you treat us rudely! you better apologize, now!" another girl came and berated Zhao Li Xin incessantly.

Another girl came and he guessed he also part of that woman group as well.

Zhao Li Xin sighed heavily 'This is great, more to come' he glanced at his watch hoping it would not take too long.

The new feisty girl looked younger than the other girls, she had green eyes and curled dark green pigtail hair that bounced together when she was angry, she huffed and puffed as she berated Zhao Li Xin meantime behind her there was a girl with straight dark hair and pale skin like a powder, the girl has slanted eyes that indicated she got different ethnicity from people around her.

To be precise, she looked like the girl in his world which meant she probably came from a country where the people had similarities to the people in Zhao Li Xin's world, probably she's from the Xiya country.

"Milly I'm fine—" Angela trying to coax her angry friends.

"Angie, is because you are too nice people think it's easy to bully you! but you can't let this uncouth behavior go unpunished or it will not only damage your reputation but also our group, how could people respect us if we let this jerk go away just like that!" the green ponytail girl looked at Zhao Li Xin.

"But—" Angela looked conflicted, she timidly looked at the cold handsome man but the man remained expressionless it was hard to guess what was he thinking.

Well, at this time Zhao Li Xin thinks is: 'So loud - so boring - I want soda drink'

On the other hand, the straight black-haired woman stares at Zhao Li Xin with curious eyes.

Zhao Li Xin watched them with a bored expression, people say birds of the same feather flock together and this time it's a noisy - foul mouth - stupid bird, how annoying. he thought he was unlucky today.

"Angela, Milly, what are you girls doing?" Suddenly a young man came, he slipped between the crowd and then headed towards them with long strides. The man had a chiseled jawline with a pair of deep blue eyes and neatly cut blonde hair shone as he moved like hair from the shampoo commercial. His tall sturdy body covered with muscles that can be seen behind his shirt is a stark contrast with Zhao Li Xin. 

Zhao Li Xin turned his lazy eyes at the strange man who came out of nowhere, he guessed he was also part of that stupid girls' group, and instantly he rolled his eyes 'Goodness they are multiplying'.

Once the man arrived Angela and her friend's eyes sparkled with relief and joy as if they had found their backbones.

One of Zhao Li Xin's eyebrows lifted and his face lit up with interest 'This is interesting'

"Liam..." Angela's face contorted as though she was struggling not to cry.

His heart ached to see her bitter face, immediately anger rose in his chest "Who hurt you?" 

Angela lowered her head as if she was afraid, "No...no one, it's okay" she muttered without daring to see his face.

But the more she tries to hide it the angrier he becomes, "If you are okay why do you look so sad, it's obvious someone is hurting you and you have to tell me which scum dare to hurt you when I'm around?!" He puffed his chest, deliberately showing off his sovereignty.

Angela's eyes sparkled with joy and embarrassment, on the other hand, Zhao Li Xin's mouth curled in disgust, 'So cringe'

The other girls seem jealous to see Angela get the men's attention hence Nora takes a step forward while pointing her finger at Zhao Li Xin "It's that man's fault, because of his appearance, Angela asked him to join our group, but instead of thanking us, this man ridiculed us! perhaps he thinks he's too good for us." Nora speaks as if defending Angela, but behind her words, she insinuates that Angela wants to take him in because she thinks the man is handsome.

"Him?" irritation flashed across Lian face.

Angela knew she upset Liam so she quickly denied it "No, I just feel sorry for him because he doesn't look strong therefore I'm worried he would get hurt if he hunted alone, That's all...."

Liam's face relaxed a little then he turned his gaze towards the man who was sitting cross-legged casually, the man leaned his head in an indifferent manner. However, what truly annoyed Liam was that the man's appearance turned out to be more captivating than he expected. After Zhao Li Xin pulled down his hoodie, his flawless gorgeous face was fully displayed for everyone to see.

Although Zhao Li Xin didn't possess the standard male beauty in this world with hyper-masculinity, golden skin, and muscular physics, however, he had well-defined features, a high nose, thin lips, and a captivating pair of beautiful onyx eyes. Overall his beauty couldn't be described as too manly or feminine combined with an enigmatic aura and smooth urbane manner that make him like someone from an aristocratic family.

It's no wonder Angela inserted with him, and because of that, his dislike toward Zhao Li Xin increases.

"Sir, since you have been rude to my friend here, you should apologize to him right now!" Liam's words did not invite discussion for he had already put all the blame on Zhao Li Xin.

Zhao Li Xin was amused he thought Liam's domineering act was quite refreshing, for it had been a long time since anyone dared to challenge him directly.

Soon a faint smile appeared on Zhao Li Xin's face, he looked at Liam and softly said: "I don't think so,"

"You!" Liam's voice shook with anger.The spectators in the room watch with excited grins as they all wait for the fight to break out. Liam's face became tense with anger and his entire muscular body shook with complete rage. He did not expect even at this point that man still treat him like a joke if he didn't do anything about it not only he would lose his face from the other hunters but also his female companions, so he had to make this obnoxious man kneel on his feet.

He tightened his jaw then hissed coldly, "Sir, you better do as I say, apologize to me and my friends before bad things happen to you"

Zhao Li Xin covers his lips with the back of his hands and chuckles lightly "Oh, like what?" 

Because of Zhao Li Xin's mild demeanor, no one thinks for a second that he is a wolf in sheep's clothing so everyone is shocked by Zhao Li Xin's attitude, there are also a few people who look at Zhao Li Xin with deprecating looks, as they were all sure Zhao Li Xin would making a fool of himself.

"You!" Liam was just about to draw his sword when suddenly a clear melodious voice stopped his movement.

"Stop!"

The first thing everyone noticed was the red-haired woman who stood out because of her fair skin. The woman then cut the crowd and walked toward Zhao Li Xin in an unhurried step. Zhao Li Xin's face instantly softened his nonchalant attitude soon replaced with gentleness.

Zhao Li Xin stretched out his hand as a habit and Lory took his hand with a cheeky grin and said: [It seems like I'm not the only one who is being followed by trouble everywhere I go?]

He sighed helplessly though he did not disagree with his wife but he still needed to clarify the whole situation [In my defense, I really didn't do anything, I was just sitting alone and studying until that corn hair woman came bothering me...] he complained with grieving looks.

"Corn hair?" Lory frowned and then saw the blonde-haired woman who stared at them with a dumbfounded face.

[Yeah, she kept talking and talking even though I ignored her, I don't know if she was pretending not to know or just simply stupid] Zhao Li Xin vented his frustration with a troubled expression.

Lory immediately felt bad for leaving Zhao Li Xin too long but downloading so many books turned out to take quite a long time in this place, so she left Zhao Li Xin alone for quite a long time. Lory should know better not to leave Zhao Li Xin in this kind of place alone, maybe it would be safer to leave him in the forest because it's easier to deal with beasts than humans, especially for someone who doesn't have social skills like Zhao Li Xin.

Lory tiptoed then stroked Zhao Li Xin's head dotingly [I'm sorry sweetie, I should not have left you alone around these bastar* people, why don't I buy you Poko-pop after this?]

Zhao Li Xin lowers his head to make it easier for Lory to stroke his head, [Hm, It's okay you here now] Zhao Li Xin's face beaming with delight, who would have thought he would stroke of luck today!

Actually, if Lory comes a second late he will cut Liam's Hands when he is about to strike him. Luckily Lory is here because of that Zhao Li Xin will minimize his action so he will not trouble her. If only people knew that certain someone managed to keep his hands because of Lory's arrival.

Meanwhile, everyone was dumbstricken by the drastic change of Zhao Li Xin from a cold indifferent man who had no fear to a sweet - gentle lover. How could someone's whole demeanor change so much in the blink of an eye, it's almost like he's not the same person.
