Winter'er Unleashes Her Sharp Tongue, Leaving Xiao Hongchen Rattled
At the entrance of the Star Emperor Hotel, the air suddenly became quiet for a few seconds.
Xiao Hongchen's words, "Not as handsome as me," still lingered in the air, carrying a strong sense of provocation and blind confidence.
He had his hands in his pockets, chin slightly raised, waiting to see the blond boy's reaction.
Dai Huabin naturally heard those words.
He looked at the short, silver-haired boy in front of him and couldn't help but chuckle.
Xiao Hongchen is indeed quite talented, but his extreme narcissism and arrogance are really asking for a beating.
However, before Dai Huabin could speak, Wang Dong'er, who was standing behind him, couldn't hold back any longer.
Wang Dong'er stepped forward, her long, light blue hair tracing a graceful arc in the air.
She put her hands on her hips, gave Xiao Hongchen a stern once-over, and spoke in a sarcastic tone:
"Hey, who's this narcissist spouting nonsense here? Didn't you look in the mirror before you left home? Or are you just jealous because you see how lively Huabin is around?"
Wang Dong'er has never been one to back down from a sharp tongue. She even dares to argue with Dai Huabin in the academy, let alone a showy young man she doesn't know.
Upon hearing this, Meng Hongchen, who was standing behind Xiao Hongchen, was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Meng Hongchen always felt that her older brother was too focused on his appearance, and that he always thought he was the most handsome man in the world.
Today, she finally met someone who dared to expose him to his face, and the girl with the long pink and blue hair was so accurate in her criticism that she actually felt quite agreeing with her.
Upon hearing his sister's laughter, Xiao Hongchen's composure vanished instantly.
He turned around and glared fiercely at Meng Hongchen. Just as he was about to turn around and refute Wang Dong'er, the other girls from Shrek Academy joined the fray.
Xiao Xiao poked her head out from behind Wang Dong'er and chimed in:
"Yeah, dressed all sparkly, does she really think she's some kind of Gold Soul Coin that everyone loves?"
Cui Yajie gathered her long pink hair, her tone slightly teasing:
"Young master, your way of striking up a conversation is far too old-fashioned. If you want to attract attention, try a more sophisticated approach."
Ma Xiaotao was even less accommodating to him. She took a long stride forward, and a trace of her Soul Emperor aura inadvertently surfaced. Her tone was very impatient:
"Where did this little brat come from, blocking our way? Get out of the way, don't keep us from going in to rest."
Xiao Hongchen was completely dumbfounded.
In the Ming Capital the Sun Moon Empire, he was a national idol adored by countless young girls, surrounded by flowers and screams wherever he went.
Today was a disaster. As soon as I stepped out, a group of stunningly beautiful girls pointed their fingers at me and started mocking me.
Moreover, these girls are all incredibly beautiful, but their insults are all incredibly hurtful.
Xiao Hongchen's face flushed slightly, and he hummed softly:
"Hmph! It's just a fact!"
Seeing Xiao Hongchen's discomfiture, Dai Huabin felt the time was right. He didn't want to get into a fight with a shrew in front of the hotel and ruin Shrek Academy's reputation.
Dai Huabin raised his hand and gently pressed it down. "Alright, everyone, let's all keep quiet. Don't take it to heart."
Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and the others, who had just been displaying explosive fighting power, immediately withdrew their hostility and obediently retreated to his side.
This uniform, obedient movement dealt another devastating blow to Xiao Hongchen's soul.
Dai Huabin took a step forward, looked at the exasperated Xiao Hongchen, and said in a very relaxed tone:
"My friend, whether you're handsome or not isn't up to you to decide; it's up to the beautiful women to tell."
He paused, pointed to the group of stunningly beautiful girls with diverse styles behind him, and continued:
"But obviously, I have more beautiful women on my side, and they all think I'm more handsome. What do you think?"
Xiao Hongchen was speechless for a moment, his mouth agape as he stood there dumbfounded.
He looked in the direction Dai Huabin was pointing.
Zhang Lexuan's elegance, Ma Xiaotao's fiery personality, Wang Dong'er's refinement, Zhu Lu's aloofness, Di Lingxi's naive charm, and Ning Tian's noble air—this is simply irrefutable proof.
Xiao Hongchen turned to look at the only woman beside him, his younger sister Meng Hongchen.
It seems that what Dai Huabin said makes sense.
Just as Xiao Hongchen was questioning his existence, Dai Huabin's gaze passed over him and landed directly on Meng Hongchen behind him.
Looking at the young woman with long, silver-white curly hair and a refined air, Dai Huabin took the initiative to strike up a conversation:
"Dai Huabin from the Shrek Academy. I wonder, beautiful young lady, who do you think is more handsome, him or me?"
The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere at the hotel entrance instantly became extremely tense.
Dai Huabin's words were not only a jab at Xiao Hongchen, but also a blatant compliment to the group of girls around him, saying they were all beauties.
The girls on Shrek's side were immediately filled with jealousy when they heard him flirting with other girls in front of so many people.
Wang Dong'er almost ground her back teeth to powder, cursing inwardly:
That blondie, what a womanizer! I was just standing up for him and cursing someone, and the next minute he's flirting with someone else!
Ma Xiaotao rolled her eyes, while Wu Ming curled her lip in disdain. Even the usually aloof Ling Luochen frowned slightly.
Zhu Lu, however, showed no change in expression.
She stood quietly behind Dai Huabin, feeling that Dai Huabin had his reasons for everything he did.
Although the Shrek girls were all a little angry and resentful, they all tacitly gave Dai Huabin face in this situation, and no one made any sarcastic remarks to undermine him.
Meng Hongchen looked at Dai Huabin, who was standing close to her. He had long golden hair, deep eyes, and handsome, well-defined features. His calm and composed noble air was very attractive.
Faced with Dai Huabin's slightly teasing question, Meng Hongchen didn't feel offended; on the contrary, she found the boy in front of her quite interesting.
She smiled generously, her voice clear and melodious:
"Hello, Dai Huabin. My name is Meng Hongchen, from the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy. This is my older brother, Xiao Hongchen."
The moment the words "Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy" were uttered, the relaxed expressions on the Shrek Academy members' faces instantly vanished, and a hint of wariness appeared in their eyes.
It turns out they're old rivals.
Dai Huabin, however, remained unfazed and smoothly replied, "So it's Miss Meng Hongchen. You seem to be much more interesting than your brother."
Xiao Hongchen finally recovered from the blow he had just suffered.
Hearing that Dai Huabin not only flirted with his sister to her face but also belittled her to praise her, his anger flared up instantly.
"Snort!"
Xiao Hongchen snorted coldly, his eyes filled with aggression.
"So what if it's Shrek Academy? You're not winning this championship!"
Before Dai Huabin could respond to Xiao Hongchen's harsh words, Ma Xiaotao stepped forward and retorted without hesitation:
"Anyone can talk big! Which year of your Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy hasn't been crushed by us? This year is no different; you'll still only get second place!"
