Womanizer

Leaving the dark temple and entering the city, the atmosphere suddenly became lively. This Nishikuma City was very clean, with its distinctive island-town charm, including sloping roads, winding mountain roads, and houses built in a charming, staggered fashion on both sides, each with its own little courtyard and a few old trees—the kind of place where you could spend an entire afternoon...

On the way into the city, Jiang Fox complained constantly, like a resentful woman...

One minute they say Tang Miao is rude, the next they say Tang Miao doesn't know how to cherish women, and then they say he bit them and hurt them.

Unfortunately, Tang Miao showed no intention of responding at all.

She'd already been taken advantage of; when had Jiang Shaoxu ever been so taken advantage of? And to make matters worse, this guy was acting like nothing's happened, completely ignoring her.

Jiang Shaoxu stopped in her tracks, and said in a spoiled tone, "You stinky Tang Miao, you're bullying me!"

"Um?"

Tang Miao turned around with a puzzled look on her face and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"You..."

Looking at his innocent expression, it seemed as if I really had wronged him?

But whether it's the place where I was pinched in the back or the place where I was bitten in the front, there are marks, okay!

"I have evidence!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao grinned mischievously and said, "Let me see..."

Well, Jiang Shaoxu realized that her skills were ultimately lacking... This man's shamelessness had reached its peak! She wondered who he had learned it from...

In the end, the little grudge in my heart was left unresolved...

Walking onto the busier main street, Jiang Shaoxu bought nothing special, just some skincare products and snacks.

As I was preparing to go back, I saw an izakaya (Japanese pub) located at the intersection of two not-so-bustling streets, backed by a raised hill, with lanterns and a sign in Japanese listing the dishes.

Jiang Shaoxu seemed to have no resistance to these small izakayas, and pulled Tang Miao, saying, "Shall we go for a drink?"

He wasn't very resistant to this little vixen to begin with. Isn't this good enough?

When two people are together, they might kiss and touch each other a few times, but do they really have to cross the line?

If that were the case, Tang Miao was completely convinced that this little vixen would have someone tie her up and take her home...

So even if I wanted to, it couldn't be now, otherwise, wouldn't my carefree life come to an end?

"Are you really not afraid of what I might do to you?"

Jiang Fox seemed completely unafraid, and said with a charming smile, "Even if I gave you a chance, you wouldn't have been able to do it."

Tang Miao pursed her lips but didn't refuse. The two of them had originally come in to have a small drink, but before they knew it, several bottles were empty.

Jiang Shaoxu has a decent alcohol tolerance, but compared to Tang Miao, she's still somewhat lacking...

He was already dizzy and disoriented, let alone the Little Fox.

"I, Jiang Shaoxu, have always been a prankster since I was a child. Those good-for-nothings really thought I had my eye on them..."

"..."

"You bastard, you clearly have feelings for me, why don't you confess to me?"

He seemed to have drunk too much, and started talking nonsense.

She recounted a lot, from painful memories to amusing anecdotes, even about her brother. However, after saying the last sentence, her fox-like eyes fixed on Tang Miao, as if demanding an answer.

"I..."

"Scumbag!"

"I..."

"He only wants to get something for nothing and doesn't want to take responsibility, what a scumbag!"

Tang Miao's lips twitched slightly. Although he had that thought... well, what man doesn't have some ulterior motives?

Tang Miao decided to stop talking and just listen.

Unfortunately, when women get unreasonable, they can be incredibly persistent... Seeing that Tang Miao was preparing to be sparing with words, Jiang Shaoxu said with dissatisfaction, "Why aren't you saying anything? You don't even want to talk to me anymore?"

Tang Miao said with a hint of helplessness, "Do I even have a chance to speak?"

"Then tell me!"

When did you start liking me?

He was genuinely curious about this. All told, they had only known each other for less than a month.

Tang Miao initially thought the little brat was just playful, but today it seems that's not the case at all.

"Maybe it was the day you saved me, or maybe it was when I witnessed your high-level magic in several elements... I don't know, but I just like you."

After Jiang Shaoxu finished speaking, Tang Miao said solemnly, "That's not liking, it's just admiration."

"You're talking nonsense!"

Before Tang Miao could finish speaking, Jiang Fox interrupted angrily, "If I don't like you, why should I let you drag me down! You scumbag! What's so great about that Mu Ningxue? All she does is act aloof, can't I do that too!"

She wasn't blind, nor was she stupid; she saw right through Tang Miao's scheming nature.

After grumbling and cursing for a while, Jiang Shaoxu approached again like an octopus. He had drunk too much and couldn't stay awake any longer, so he fell asleep immediately.

Tang Miao muttered, "What a disaster!"

But his hands were still honest; he picked her up and headed back up the mountain.

Of course, carrying this Little Fox up the mountain meant there would inevitably be some interaction. There was no other way, given the considerable distance involved.

After returning to their residence, Tang Miao took Jiang Shaoxu directly to her room. Jiang Shaoxu was assigned to share a room with Mu Tingying.

Although Mu Tingying was not asleep at this time, the clothes she was wearing were extremely thin.

When Mu Tingying saw Tang Miao carrying the drunk Jiang Shaoxu straight in, her first instinct was to put on a coat, then she said with some shame and indignation, "Tang Miao, don't you know the difference between men and women?!"

After Tang Miao placed the item on Jiang Shaoxu's bed, she turned around and said, "I've seen your little bit of flesh before, why are you making such a fuss?"

That day, Mu Tingying's appearance was indeed seen by Tang Miao. By the time the others realized what was happening, that spot was already covered up. And it just so happened that she noticed it, so in the end, without some special aura, they were just there to join in the fun.

Mu Tingying initially thought they hadn't seen anything, but after hearing Tang Miao's explanation, she realized... she had been seen naked by this little thief!!!

"You..."

Who is Mu Tingying? She's now a key figure being groomed by the younger generation of the Mu Family. Tang Miao's identity became clear as soon as she arrived.

He's just a guy with no connections whatsoever!

Having exceptional talent is dazzling, but once you reach a higher level, without the support of a powerful backer, you'll forever remain an Advanced Mage, with virtually no chance of advancing further.

After all, what's needed now is more than just talent. Resources are the most, most, most important thing!

So, after learning everything, she wasn't happy to hear Tang Miao say that. On the contrary, she felt a surge of displeasure!

Immediately, Mu Tingying shouted angrily, "Get out of here!!"

Tang Miao hadn't planned to stay long anyway; to be honest, Mu Tingying didn't find it particularly interesting.
