This Little Lady Is Actually My Fangirl?

At a street corner.

The Setting Sun Glow was fading, while streams of people flowed past after work.

Xia He grabbed Qin Yang's arm, shaking his head with a sigh.

Now that he had caught Qin Yang red-handed, his earlier suspicions were undoubtedly confirmed.

It was all because of Li Zixuan appearing that day that Qin Yang had become like this.

"What else do you have to deny, Lao Qin? You've definitely fallen hopelessly for Li Zixuan!"

Xia He looked heartbroken. Staring at the street signs, he wore an expression of regret. "If I'd known that woman would have you this smitten, I never would've gotten you that information."

As he spoke, he seemed to remember something. He suddenly took out his phone and urged Qin Yang, "Come on, Lao Qin, go somewhere with me!"

"Why?"

Qin Yang asked in confusion, wondering why this guy had suddenly changed his tune.

"Where else could we go? Bai Jin Han, of course!"

Xia He said indignantly, pulling out his phone to make a reservation. "There are plenty more fish in the sea. Today, bro, I'm taking you out to see the world!"

Qin Yang: "..."

"Hey, quit being stubborn and come with me. I'll book you a good one right now."

Xia He pressed the call button on his phone and began tapping away to make a reservation for Qin Yang.

No matter what, he had to drag Qin Yang to Bai Jin Han this time.

Otherwise, if Qin Yang kept obsessing over Li Zixuan like this, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Things would definitely not end well for Qin Yang... After all, a Heaven's Proud Daughter like Li Zixuan was one in a million, the center of countless eyes. Even at Jianghai Martial Arts Academy, she had innumerable admirers.

Moreover, the gap between Qin Yang and Li Zixuan was as vast as a heavenly chasm.

What difference was there between Qin Yang throwing himself at her and a moth flying into a flame? If he angered Li Zixuan, or if her admirers found out, the consequences would become unimaginable! Thinking this, Xia He connected the call to Bai Jin Han. He glanced at Qin Yang beside him and could not help sighing inwardly.

How had Lao Qin become like this?

In his memories, Qin Yang had always been a quiet, withdrawn sort.

Being lovesick really did ruin people!

That once-silent guy had become utterly obsessed over Li Zixuan in just a few days.

As his good brother, how could Xia He possibly stand by and ignore it?! "Lao Qin, don't worry. Your brother will definitely save you this time!"

Xia He was filled with righteous indignation. Looking at Qin Yang's harmlessly handsome face, he became even more determined.

Meanwhile, Qin Yang looked at Xia He with a bewildered expression. He had no idea what the other man was up to. Why did Xia He's gaze make him feel as though he were about to sacrifice himself for some great cause?

Just then.

The call in Xia He's hand connected. A woman's gentle voice came through, accompanied by the extravagant sounds of singing and laughter in the background.

"Hello? Xiao Hong? It's Xiao Xia... Yeah, the usual setup. No, wait, damn it, I have a friend... No, that friend isn't me... My buddy's coming..."

As he spoke, Xia He recalled that Qin Yang seemed to like Li Zixuan's type, so he hurriedly described her appearance.

Just as he was getting into it.

Xia He suddenly realized that Qin Yang beside him had been silent for quite some time. He could not help turning his head to look. "What are you looking at... Huh? Where did he go?!"

Only then.

Did he discover that the space beside him was completely empty.

At some point, Qin Yang had already slipped away.

Leaving Xia He alone to haggle over the phone.

"??? Where's Lao Qin?"

Xia He froze for a moment and looked around blankly, at a loss.

He had left without making a sound. It was like Xia He had seen a ghost...

"Hello, Xiao Xia? Your Couple's Package is booked. When are you coming over?"

The urging voice came through the phone again.

Xia He's scalp went numb. Qin Yang had left just after the reservation was made, and cancelling it would cost him VIP Points.

He had originally planned to enjoy some music at a pleasure house, then share some brotherly action with Lao Qin.

Two dragons playing with a pearl—wouldn't that have been wonderful? But now... he would have to battle a whole crowd by himself! "Damn it, Lao Qin, you're beyond saving!"

"If you don't listen to Brother Xia, you'll regret it later, Lao Qin!"

Xia He answered the phone angrily and could only force himself to continue, "I'll be there in a while. Wait for me there!"

After quietly leaving Xia He's side, Qin Yang followed the route from before and arrived near Jianghai Martial Arts Academy.

Students streamed endlessly in and out of the school gates. Qin Yang concealed his aura and went to the position he had previously scouted out to continue observing.

Before long, he saw Li Zixuan walk out through the school gates.

"Huh, that doesn't seem to be the direction of the Martial Hall."

Qin Yang noticed that after leaving the school, Li Zixuan drove straight toward the outskirts.

"Where is she going?"

Qin Yang was somewhat puzzled, but seeing that there was progress, he did not hesitate any longer. He hailed a car and followed behind her.

The two cars traveled unhurriedly along the evening roads. Traffic was somewhat congested during rush hour, but Qin Yang was not in a hurry and patiently followed all the way.

After traveling for some distance, they drew closer to the destination, and the area became increasingly deserted.

Qin Yang looked ahead and suddenly found the scenery around him somewhat familiar.

Green mountains rose and fell like rolling waves, while migratory birds returned to their nests in the forest, crying out as they went.

Not far away stood a strangely shaped mountain peak, towering high into the sky. Yet its summit was smooth and flat as a mirror.

"Young man, are you a tourist coming to check in, or a student from the academy?"

The driver held the steering wheel and looked toward the distant green mountains. "If you're not a Martial Arts Academy student, Broken Peak Mountain isn't easy to enter."

"I'm not going into the mountain. I just have something to take care of."

Qin Yang did not answer directly, brushing it off with a vague excuse. "What's the story with this mountain?"

"You don't know? It caused a huge stir some time ago. Nobody knows which immortal split this mountain apart... Tsk, tsk, that was incredible!"

The driver could not help marveling. "The mountain's sealed off now. I heard it's for those students to comprehend some kind of sword intent. Ordinary folks like us aren't even allowed near it."

"..."

Hearing this, Qin Yang could not help smiling speechlessly.

Well, well. He had casually split the mountain with one strike back then, only for the academy to treat it like a treasure.

Wait...

Li Zixuan was heading toward that mountain. Could she be going to comprehend the sword intent?

Just as Qin Yang thought this.

Li Zixuan, who was in the lead, indeed stopped her car. She got out and immediately used her movement technique to head into the mountains.

At the same time.

The auras of all the acquired-realm experts around her remained outside the mountain and did not follow.

After all, comprehending sword intent was a major matter. She had to be alone, and absolutely no outsiders could watch.

"Good, good, good. I've finally caught you alone!"

Now that all the acquired-realm experts were outside the mountain, Li Zixuan was alone.

This was an opportunity not to be missed!

Qin Yang got out of the car and immediately used the Seven Stars Dragon Swimming Steps. He easily avoided the sentries outside the mountain and concealed himself as he slipped into the mountains.

At the same time, he could not help feeling puzzled.

He vaguely noticed a trace of excited delight on Li Zixuan's face.

Something had made Li Zixuan so obsessed that she had entered the mountain without even going to the Martial Hall.

Could it be... this little lady was actually my fangirl?
