Tang Miao smacked her lips, turned her head and saw Zhao Manyan. Without thinking, she said, "It's all my fault for meeting the wrong person..."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Hui also looked at Zhao Manyan. To be honest... he looked respectable, but the lustful look in his eyes made her snort in displeasure.

Zhao Manyan was somewhat incredulous at Tang Miao's abrupt decision to sell himself! But seeing Tang Miao chatting animatedly with the girl while he himself was met with nothing but disdain...

After thinking for a moment, he said retaliatoryly, "Sigh, I wonder if Mu Nujiao would be angry if she knew you were strolling around with beautiful women."

Tang Miao and Dongfang Hui were almost ready to go out for a meal together when that bastard Zhao Manyan said something that made Dongfang Hui's face change completely!

Although she wasn't a student at the Pearl Academy, she was still a member of the Dongfang Family. And the Dongfang Family had connections with the Mu Family... She had naturally heard of the Mu Nujiao and Mu Nuxin sisters.

Immediately, Dongfang Hui stopped and looked at Tang Miao, asking, "What is your relationship with Mu Nujiao?"

Tang Miao cursed Zhao Manyan's ancestors in his heart, but Zhao Manyan was unaware of this and opportunely interjected, "He only lives with Mu Nujiao..."

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao turned around and uttered a string of polite words. "I...*!*,.../*!"

Zhao Manyan shrugged, completely unconcerned, and even seemed to say: Come on, let's hurt each other!

Dongfang Hui never expected that this man would change like this after not seeing him for several years. Just now, he seemed to be saying that he had always secretly loved her?

Immediately, Dongfang Hui raised her leg and stepped directly on Tang Miao's foot. However, with a "crack" sound, a scream of "Ah!" rang out.

But it wasn't Tang Miao's shout; instead, it was Zhao Manyan, who had just been about to watch the drama unfold, looking completely bewildered, clutching his foot that had been stepped on, and jumping around...

Dongfang Hui didn't care who she stepped on; neither of them were good people anyway. Especially Tang Miao, who had utterly disappointed her...

"Scumbag!"

After uttering those two words, Dongfang Hui turned and walked towards the teaching building without looking back.

Tang Miao didn't seem inclined to give chase, but Zhao Manyan limped up to Tang Miao and asked, "Aren't you going to chase after them?"

"Why chase after her? This girl is too possessive and has a volatile temper. I can't afford to mess with her."

Tang Miao shook his head. If he were to pursue Dongfang Hui, he'd probably have to learn how to scheme and plot every day in the future...

Glancing at Zhao Manyan, who was clutching his foot and looking like he was in a lot of pain, Tang Miao said disdainfully, "Stop pretending, I don't blame you."

Zhao Manyan then put his foot down and laughed, "I was just afraid you'd beat me up, but you betrayed me first."

"It's my fault, it's my fault. I won't fight you to the death next time."

As he spoke, Tang Miao moved his shinbone, and after a series of "crackling" sounds from his joints, Zhao Manyan paused for a moment before saying, "Tang Miao, you just said you weren't blaming me!"

Tang Miao nodded and said very seriously, "I really don't blame you, but... I didn't say I wouldn't beat you up."

"Holy shit..."

At this moment, Zhao Manyan could find no other adjectives besides these two words to express the tragedy in his heart.

He immediately turned to run away, but the moment he took a step, Tang Miao grabbed him back.

Then, a friendly "punch and kick" was naturally inevitable.

"Damn it... don't hit my handsome face!"

"You bastard, I'll fight you to the death!"

"Ah...!"

"..."

After a barrage of attacks, Tang Miao, seeing Zhao Manyan's bruised and swollen face, reached out and said, "Sure enough, you look much better this way."

Although Zhao Manyan was very unhappy, he couldn't beat her or afford to offend her... so he could only grab Tang Miao's hand and mutter unhappily, "You're just a piece of my bad luck!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Miao looked at him and laughed loudly, "Looking like this, you think you're handsome?"

"..."

Zhao Manyan was annoyed, but he only snorted twice.

"Don't be so stingy. In a place like the Imperial Capital Academy, where all sorts of beauties are everywhere, don't you want a long-distance relationship?"

Zhao Manyan had originally considered this idea, but given his current pig-headed state, it wouldn't be long before he recovered...

"Get out of here!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll be careful. Besides, our school sent a Healing Element girl. We can just ask her for help."

He had already thought it through when he beat up Zhao Manyan. If Bai Tingting hadn't come along, he wouldn't have beaten the guy up like that. After all, cutting off his romantic prospects would only turn him into an enemy, let alone friends.

The two then returned to their residence, and under Bai Tingting's healing, Zhao Manyan quickly regained his sly demeanor.

I have to say, this girl with Healing Element is amazing...

Especially since they are so prominent!

Although Tang Miao was observing Zhao Manyan, his peripheral vision was filled with her figure, which was no less impressive than Ai Tutu's...

Zhao Manyan felt both disdain and envy upon seeing this. However, this time he didn't choose to "hurt each other" with Tang Miao again!

After all, the two of them had already agreed when they returned that they would each rely on their own abilities to woo girls. It was only because Mu Nujiao needed a strategy that Tang Miao was willing to help; otherwise, he said he would have Zhao Manyan who the real Casanova was in no time.

After the treatment was over, Bai Tingting asked suspiciously, "You two weren't beaten up on campus, were you?"

They both shook their heads at the same time...

"How did he get beaten up like this?"

Tang Miao thought for a moment and said, "He accidentally touched a girl's butt, and was mistaken for a pervert, so he got beaten up."

Zhao Manyan was stunned, looking at Tang Miao in disbelief!

Didn't we just say we wouldn't hurt each other anymore?

Why has it started again now...?

Upon hearing this, Bai Tingting gave a soft "humph," glared at Zhao Manyan, and then left.

She went out and got beaten up for being a pervert, and she still has the nerve to ask Zhao Manyan for treatment? It's a good thing she didn't know, otherwise she would never have treated Zhao Manyan.

After Bai Tingting left, Zhao Manyan glared at Tang Miao with furious eyes. "We agreed not to hurt each other anymore, what do you mean by this!?"

"There has to be an explanation, right... hehe..." Tang Miao laughed awkwardly, then said, "I wasn't nice enough this time. How about I treat you to dinner?"

Zhao Manyan raised an eyebrow. "The cafeteria?"

"What are you saying? Although my brother isn't as wealthy as you, he shouldn't be this stingy, right? He must have eaten out at a restaurant."

To be honest, that was exactly what he meant... However, Zhao Manyan had a pretty rough day, so he could only reluctantly treat him to a nice meal.

That's more like it.

Hearing Tang Miao's reply, Zhao Manyan nodded and added, "However, just eating isn't enough; you have to treat me to drinks!"
