“Just touched your waist?” Xue An spoke indifferently.
Qi Fen’s heart was somewhat panicky, but she still pretended to truly cry.
A woman’s tears are very good at garnering sympathy.
Especially since this Qi Fen girl was pretty, many of the male onlookers glared at Xue An with anger.
A few were even rubbing their hands together, eager to play the “hero saving the beauty.”
A sneer of disdain curled the corners of Xue An’s mouth, “Do you think your tears are moving? Or perhaps… you think you’re very beautiful?”
This accusatory statement made Qi Fen cry even harder, but she felt a sense of calm inside.
To say such things in front of so many people, just wait to be scolded!
As expected.
Several students dressed like boys indignantly said, “What kind of talk is that?
You sleazily touched this young lady, and now you’re scolding her?”
“Exactly! You’re not much of a man!” Some of the female onlookers also began to chatter and point.
Xue An looked at the group and said coolly, “If I really wanted to touch, do you think… I would fancy such goods?”
This comment provoked public outrage.
“You touched her and still despise her? Is there such a man in the world?” many of the female onlookers yelled loudly.
Qi Fen squatted on the ground, a smug smile appearing on her face.
Now, you’re finished, huh!
But just then.
A clear and melodious female voice rang out, “Xue An, what’s happening?”
The sound of this voice alone was enough to captivate many of the boys.
Then, Tang Xuan’er and Fan Mengxue walked over together.
Their arrival silenced the crowd.
Tang Xuan’er was not wearing a dress today, instead, she wore jeans and a white down jacket on top.
This attire made her appear exceptionally youthful and charming.
Fan Mengxue wore a white, exquisitely crafted long dress that revealed her slender and attractive curves.
Although she wore a mask and her facial features were not clear, just by looking at her picturesque eyebrows and eyes, one could tell she was definitely a great beauty.
These two beauties, at least a nine each, made many of the boys stare openly.
Particularly because Tang Xuan’er and Fan Mengxue both disliked heavy makeup, only applying a light touch, further highlighting their elegant demeanor.
Compared to them, the Qi Fen girl squatting on the ground was hardly any more attractive than an average flower.
“What happened?” Fan Mengxue asked with concern.
She had come over after hearing the sounds of argument.
Xue An smiled slightly, “Nothing, just someone saying I harassed her!”
“who?”
Xue An pointed to the Qi Fen girl on the ground, who had gone into a state of petrification.
“That’s her!”
At this moment, Xue Xiang and Xue Nian concurrently said, “This auntie… is so ugly!”
This opinion echoed the thoughts of most people present. People should not be compared with one another.
Just now Qi Fen was considered beautiful by many men who hadn’t seen much of the world.
But now, compared with Tang Xuan’er and Fan Mengxue, she was no better than a stone in a pit latrine.
Fan Mengxue couldn’t help but burst into laughter, her eyes turning into beautiful crescents.
“Husband, she said you harassed her?”
As she spoke, Fan Mengxue naturally wrapped her arm around one of Xue An’s arms.
At that moment, everyone understood.
It turns out this breathtakingly beautiful girl was this man’s girlfriend!
So, no one believed what Qi Fen had said any longer.
What a joke.
If you already have a cream cake to eat, would you still eat shit?
The most vociferous hecklers not only hung their heads in shame but a few even glared fiercely at the woman.
They thought this woman was accusing someone without any reason, which was simply detestable!
At this moment, the woman only felt her heart brimming with panic.
She had never expected that this man would have such a beautiful girlfriend.
Compared to her, her own face, which she had spent a fortune on, was merely a grotesque sight!
Meanwhile, many of the guys showed faces of disappointment.
However, there were still many who sneaked glances at Tang Xuan’er.
In comparison to the masked Fan Mengxue, the bare-faced Tang Xuan’er seemed even more gentle and tranquil.
Yet, Fan Mengxue’s next words ruthlessly shattered these people’s fantasies.
“Sister, this woman actually slandered our husband!”
Our… husband?
After this odd reference, everyone’s look at Xue An changed.
There was shock, and jealousy, but most of all, envy.
Tang Xuan’er blushed, lowered her head, and stopped talking.
Xue An felt somewhat helpless; Fan Mengxue could really be whimsical at times.
Then Xue An turned his head to look at the woman.
“Now, did you say I touched you?”
The woman shuddered, still thinking of arguing, but Xue An’s gaze made her feel like she had fallen into an ice cellar, and she involuntarily said, “No… I didn’t!”
Xue An said indifferently, “Do you realize your mistake?”
“I realize my mistake!”
“Then slap yourself twenty times!”
After saying this, Xue An left with Xue Xiang and others.
The woman felt relieved after Xue An left, and secretly rejoiced, thinking I should slap myself because he says so? Why would I listen to him?
But just as she thought of getting up, she found her hand involuntarily stretching out and delivering a hefty slap to her own face.
The force of the slap was so great that it made the woman’s head reel.
But before she could even react, the other hand delivered another slap.
Smack, smack, smack!
After twenty slaps, the woman’s face was swollen like a ball, and her carefully crafted nose was also askew.
But by that time, no one pitied her; they all looked at her with disgust.
The woman got up, cast a hateful look at Xue An’s retreating figure, and then ran away.
After this little interlude, Xue An led Fan Mengxue and the others to start ice skating.
Fan Mengxue was quite skilled at ice skating, but Tang Xuan’er had no experience and was about to fall as soon as she put on the skates.
Although Xue An had no experience either,
with his capability, this little matter was certainly not a challenge for him, so he took Tang Xuan’er by the hand to teach her.
As for Xue Xiang and Xue Nian, the two of them were sitting on a sled, playing merrily with a few sled dogs.
The daylight in winter is short, and soon, the sky began to darken.
Fan Mengxue had a great time that afternoon, and now she was sitting next to Xue An, panting, with a blush on her face.
“Tired?” Xue An asked.
Fan Mengxue shook her head, “Not tired at all!”
Xue An looked at Tang Xuan’er, who was staggering nearby, and smiled, “Then, did you have fun?”
“Of course I did! This is the happiest day I’ve had in four years!”
At this moment, the lights around the ice rink were turned on.
The ice mazes and castles shone gloriously under the lights, looking like a frozen kingdom.
“It’s so beautiful!” Fan Mengxue said, her gaze dreamy.
Xue An nodded in agreement.
Even though he had seen landscapes a thousandfold more magnificent, at this moment, Xue An felt that the simple joys of the human world were quite beautiful too!
