Li Zhengya froze for a moment, looking at the owner of the small hand.
She felt completely flustered!
The person she was supposed to shake hands with was Xu Mo!
Looking at that pair of unattainable assets.
Li Zhengya clearly couldn't compete.
She subconsciously considered Xu Shi as one of her own kind.
Natural selection, survival of the fittest.
She wasn't bad-looking either, right?
Back in Korea, she hadn't gone under the knife!
All natural.
Li Zhengya smiled awkwardly, "What's your name?"
Not planning to leave?
Interesting!
Xu Shi's small mouth, painted with death Barbie pink lipstick, opened slightly, revealing a sweet smile that appeared harmless.
"Do you really want to know?"
Li Zhengya suddenly shuddered.
So cold.
Her friend beside her, who hadn't reacted yet, was one of the Korean girls.
Seeing how cute Xu Shi looked,
She couldn't help but instinctively reach out her hand, wanting to pat the little witch's head.
In an instant, her hand that was about to descend was caught by the little witch.
Then the little witch turned sideways, using her waist strength, executed a beautiful shoulder throw.
She slammed the Korean girl hard onto the ground.
Her bottom made intimate contact with the floor.
"Ah---"
She cried out in pain.
Xu Mo was quite exasperated. You can't touch a tiger's behind, and you can't touch little Shi's head. Didn't they study proverbs before coming to Dragon Country?
He didn't feel sorry for the Korean girl at all.
When he was young, he had once tempted fate.
Taking advantage of Xu Shi being asleep, he rubbed her head vigorously.
On one hand, it was for revenge.
On the other hand, Xu Mo wanted to test if it would generate static electricity or something.
Well, he didn't see any static electricity.
But he certainly didn't escape a beating.
Li Zhengya quickly squatted down to check her companion's injuries, angrily saying, "How can you Dragon Country people hit others like this?!"
This commotion attracted quite a few waiting passengers.
"What happened? What's going on?"
"That girl seems to have hit someone."
"Tsk... My goodness, so big... ahem... so scary, where are the security personnel? Aren't they going to do anything about this assault?"
Soon, several uniformed security officers walked over.
Li Zhengya said angrily, "Aren't Dragon Country people supposed to be very polite? My friend just wanted to pat her head to show friendliness. It's fine if she doesn't appreciate it, but how can she hit people like this?!"
The security personnel tried to understand the situation.
Most of what they heard was from Li Zhengya and her two Korean girlfriends.
This was an international flight terminal.
The staff and Dragon Country people passing through here tended to be somewhat biased in favor of foreign travelers.
Plus, in this situation, they felt Xu Shi had gone too far.
If she didn't want to be touched, she could have just said so.
Escalating to physical violence,
No matter the reason, it warranted some words.
The crowd pointed and whispered about Xu Shi.
Among those disembarking here, foreigners made up the majority.
They felt that coming to Dragon Country made them gods, with an innate sense of superiority.
Those few security personnel wanted to come up and lecture Xu Shi.
Xu Shi maintained a cold expression, ignoring everything around her.
The discussions of others seemed to have nothing to do with her.
Everything she had experienced in her past life had already tempered her mentality to be incredibly resilient!
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to slay Lin Fan, who was blessed with the halo of good fortune!
No way!
Even if his little sister was one of the female leads, a future capable assistant by the protagonist's side.
Blood is thicker than water.
Xu Mo wouldn't allow anyone to lecture her!
"You all just heard, it was that girl who wanted to touch my sister's head first, without her consent. Doesn't that count as sexual harassment?"
Xu Mo stepped forward, shielding Xu Shi.
He just wanted to quickly send the little witch home and complete his task.
So he could go out and have fun later!
"Oh... isn't that Young Master Xu?"
The security personnel recognized Xu Mo's identity.
Some Dragon Country passengers, prompted by Xu Mo's words, also recognized Xu Shi's identity.
"Damn... that Korean girl totally deserved it! How dare she try to touch the head of the Xu family's princess? Does she have a death wish?"
"Bro, who is that?"
"It's normal that you don't recognize her. She's Young Master Xu's younger sister, Xu Shi. She rarely appears in mass media."
"Heh... these Korean girls are trying to justify themselves. Who likes being touched by strangers? Still trying to argue it's a friendly gesture. Why don't you let me pat your butt then?"
"You're really something! Bro, you've got a point!"
The Dragon Country passengers were surprisingly united!
They turned the topic towards the three Korean girls.
Other foreign travelers, hearing Xu Mo's explanation,
All seemed to agree. In some parts of Europe, such behavior would be considered a legal offense, punishable by jail time.
Public opinion turned against these three girls.
Those few security officers were extremely embarrassed, realizing they had almost wronged an innocent person.
They hurriedly apologized to Xu Shi.
"Miss Xu, we sincerely apologize. We almost misunderstood you."
"It's these Korean exchange students' own problem, not yours."
"How would you like to handle this? Do you need us to call the police for you?"
Their expressions were serious, not joking at all.
If the three girls had malicious intentions and tried to harm Xu Shi, this would no longer be just a sexual harassment issue.
Xu Shi snapped out of her emotional state and waved her hand, saying, "That won't be necessary."
She remembered when she was very young, Xu Fuqiang took them to visit a friend at a private estate.
Xu Shi was born with athletic abilities far surpassing girls her age, even better than some boys!
She was very mischievous and ran wild around the estate.
She shook off all the nannies following her.
In the end, the little girl ran out of energy and got lost in the large estate.
It was the first time the little girl experienced fear.
She encountered an unleashed Doberman.
The little girl ran for her life.
But her energy was depleted.
She fell to the ground.
Just as little Xu Shi was feeling helpless,
A little boy came looking for her, his face showing relief when he saw Xu Shi.
He fearlessly rushed towards the Doberman that had caught up.
Using his small body to shield her.
Even though he was bitten and bleeding profusely,
Xu Mo didn't step back an inch.
Finally, the adults arrived and killed the Doberman on the spot!
In Xu Shi's memory, at that moment Xu Mo's body emanated a dazzling light, very captivating.
It was from that moment on that Xu Shi fell deeply in love with Xu Mo.
This was also the turning point that led to major changes in the plot of the novel later on--
There were also many seemingly insignificant small things that young Xu Mo did unintentionally.
The butterfly effect they triggered, Rome wasn't built in a day.
And in Xu Mo's memory---
"Holy crap! I finally found you. You're the future female lead who's supposed to help the protagonist bash my dog head! If you disappeared, how could I go home?"
"Damn it--stupid dog don't bite her, if you want to bite someone, kill me first!"
Xu Mo's unyielding will to return home overcame all the pain in his body.
Before losing consciousness, he mumbled.
"Damn male lead, the plot hasn't even officially started, and I've already stuck my face out for you to hit.... I'm... really... so pathetic..."
Later, Xu Fuqiang invited the best doctors from home and abroad.
To treat Xu Mo's injuries.
Because the Xu family had great influence.
And abundant financial resources.
Although Xu Mo was seriously injured, after treatment, no scars were left on his body.
Xu Mo didn't know that his unintentional action had made Xu Shi fall completely in love with him.
However, if he had known in advance, he would still have chosen to save Xu Shi.
Going home was one thing, saving someone was another, two separate matters.
Xu Shi's delicate nose sniffed, and she thought to herself: Just like before, he hasn't changed. Brother Mo is truly a gentle person.
The three Korean girls scampered away.
Xu Mo glanced at the suitcase Xu Shi was carrying and said exasperatedly, "You don't have that much stuff! Why did you make me drive the Range Rover here?"
Xu Shi didn't answer. Instead, she moved close to Xu Mo and sniffed with her pretty nose.
---Hmm, no trace of the perfume from those three Korean girls just now.
Couldn't smell any other girls' perfume either.
Still clean!
Xu Mo looked puzzled, "What are you doing?"
Xu Shi tossed her pink small suitcase to Xu Mo.
"I don't like sitting in your passenger seat, is that not allowed?"
Xu Mo instinctively reached out to catch the thrown suitcase.
He felt it looked oddly familiar.
Wasn't this the cheap suitcase he had asked netizens to help him bargain for on Pinduoduo for Xu Shi's birthday?
At that time, his intention was to annoy Xu Shi.
Who would have thought this suitcase would become such a hit!
It went viral across the internet.
With various celebrities and influencers promoting it voluntarily, it quickly became the trendiest suitcase of the moment.
The suitcase manufacturer really knew how to capitalize on trends.
The tagline read: "The nation's sweetheart can buy anything, so we buy without hesitation."
Back to Xu Shi, at that time she didn't get angry, but quietly accepted the suitcase.
This left Xu Mo confused.
Was this the little witch pretending?
Well... he spent the next few days on edge.
But it turned out it really wasn't an act.
She didn't beat him up.
He soon forgot about the whole thing.
"Who said I wanted you as my co-pilot anyway! Sit there if you want!"
Xu Mo retorted.
Walking ahead, Xu Shi's lips curled into a slight smile, dimples appearing on both cheeks.
"Silly! I was just kidding~"
In her previous life, Xu Mo had arrived in a Range Rover.
It had infuriated her!
In the midst of their cold war, she had no choice but to reluctantly sit in the back.
The reason for their cold war was simple.
Since middle school, as a young girl experiencing her first love, Xu Shi realized her feelings for Xu Mo had become irrepressible!
To avoid gossip and society's judgmental gaze,
Xu Shi could only use this method to keep Xu Mo at a distance!
Because--she was afraid she couldn't control herself.
While Xu Shi was happy, a glint of determination appeared in her eyes, "Death has never been the end--"
"--regret is."
"In this life, I won't leave any regrets!"
This is a 3,000-word chapter
By the way, did that last line raise the level of coolness?
Anyway, I'm off to the market to buy a kun fish on credit, hoping it'll lay lots of eggs
Then I can put half an egg in my overdue instant noodles~
