I had to admit, the little girl was indeed very pretty, easily school-beauty level. She was dressed rather sexily too, especially with those straight, snow-white legs. She was absolutely a little temptress.
"Hehe, our luck's pretty good tonight. We found such a top-tier schoolgirl even in a bar."
"This little girl is so tender!" Another punk reached out to tear off the little girl's clothes.
The little girl wanted to resist, but the alcohol had drained all her strength. With a rip, most of her clothes were torn apart.
The girl immediately shuddered in fright.
"What are you doing? Let go of me! Let go!"
The little girl had never seen anything like this before, and panic filled her face.
Meanwhile, the punk looked excited as he reached out again. If he tore at her clothes one more time, they would probably be completely ripped off.
Tears welled in the little girl's eyes as despair and terror filled her expression.
But at that moment, a fair little hand suddenly grabbed the punk's filthy paw and yanked hard. The punk was sent flying through the air.
After a 360-degree Thomas spin, he slammed brutally into the ground, leaving the little girl and the other punks dumbfounded.
What the hell, how was she so strong? The punk climbed up from the ground, feeling as though his waist had nearly been broken by the fall.
"Mind your own fucking business! You looking to die?"
"Oh? Another little beauty. Hehe, brothers, grab the white-haired one. Let's have a great time tonight."
Seeing that she was a beauty, the punk ignored his injuries and shouted immediately.
A surge of fury instantly rose within Ling Feng.
He stepped forward, drew his Tang sword, and slashed across the punk's hand. Amid a spray of crimson blood, several fingers fell to the ground.
Another heart-wrenching scream rang out. The punk clutched his fingers and collapsed onto the ground in agony, while the other punks no longer cared about anything else. They abandoned their rolling companion and ran.
"How did nine years of compulsory education produce trash like you?"
Looking at the punk still howling on the ground, Ling Feng had no intention of paying him any attention. Scum like that was not worth pitying.
Ling Feng looked at the trembling little girl, took off the jacket of his JK uniform, and carefully draped it over her.
"Th-thank you, big sister."
"Are you alright? Don't come to places like this again."
Ling Feng let out a breath. The coldness from earlier was gone. If he had arrived even one step later, he probably would have seen nothing but pale flesh.
More importantly, they had actually dared to lay hands on such a young girl! They were nothing but animals!
Wasn't that at least three years... uh, no. They had even dared to have ideas about him! Absolutely unforgivable!
"I had a reason for being here. Also, can I know your name?"
Despite seeing such a bloody scene, the little girl was not frightened. Instead, she gathered her courage and spoke, because she knew Ling Feng had saved her.
Seeing that she was alright, Ling Feng used the points he had saved over the past few days to exchange for a mind-clearing potion and tossed it to the little girl.
"I don't want to know. Even if I did, I couldn't help you." Ling Feng was certain of that, because he was poor!
"Astral Mark Girl, Ling Mengxue, has arrived!"
She watched Ling Feng's retreating figure, white fading into the moonlight before disappearing.
The little girl's eyes were full of admiration.
"Astral Mark Girl..."
Lan Xinyu's Request
Perhaps because of what had just happened, or perhaps because Ling Xiaoyu was not home.
Ling Feng somehow returned home without even canceling his transformation.
So much had happened in one night. Ling Feng was exhausted now and only wanted to lie down in bed and relax. He still had an exam tomorrow.
As soon as he opened the door, Ling Feng saw Ling Wanqing standing in front of it.
Tears shimmered in Ling Wanqing's eyes. She had originally been planning to complain.
But when she saw Ling Feng after his transformation, Ling Wanqing suddenly realized something. She hurriedly took Ling Feng's little hand and pulled him inside.
It must have been those magic-playing people!
Ling Wanqing immediately settled on that explanation in her heart.
"Are you okay? You look like you're about to collapse," Ling Wanqing asked worriedly.
"I'm fine. I just feel really sleepy."
Somehow, Ling Feng made it upstairs and felt himself lying on a bed.
The bed was so soft, so comfortable, and it even smelled nice...
Ling Feng slightly opened his hazy eyes, only to see a blurry figure before him.
"Wan Qing? Wait, this isn't my room, is it?" Ling Feng said.
Ling Wanqing did not care about that.
Was she just supposed to let him get away with leaving her alone at home for an entire night? Absolutely not!
She had also heard at school that Ling Feng was popular with girls. She thought Ling Feng might have been fooling around outside. Would he forget about his little sister from now on?
No! Sis, you're an Astral Mark Girl. You still have to save the world with me someday, and besides, you're underage! You can't date early!
Ling Wanqing reached out and hugged Ling Feng around the waist. The physical contact sent a numbing sensation through Ling Feng, and most of his sleepiness instantly vanished.
"What are you doing?"
"Let's sleep together tonight!"
"??"
Ling Feng was utterly confused. What was wrong with this girl in the middle of the night?
She was already so old. How could a girl sleep with a boy?
"I don't care! You left me home alone tonight, so you have to make it up to me."
Ling Wanqing cried out.
Ling Feng glanced at Ling Wanqing and discovered that she was actually crying. He was immediately frightened.
If Ling Xiaoyu found out he had bullied her, he would probably be finished.
"Don't cry. Isn't it fine if I agree?"
"Really?" Ling Wanqing wiped her tears.
"Really!"
The moment Ling Feng agreed, Ling Wanqing immediately put on a smiling face again.
Ling Feng suspected that she had some misunderstandings about relationships between men and women. He had to educate her properly, or what if something happened in the future?
What a sin! I've lived nearly twenty years, upright and honorable all my life, clean-handed, righteous, pure of heart and desire, never going near women. Even during holidays, I lived on plain food. Why did I keep running into things like this?!
There were far too few people like Ling Feng, surrounded by beautiful girls yet still not knowing how to appreciate it.
Some people simply did not know how fortunate they were and always loved lecturing others.
Even if Ling Feng wanted to seriously date a girlfriend, Ling Xiaoyu would not agree.
The reason was actually that dating early would affect his studies!
Early the next morning, Ling Feng still arrived at school early.
What Ling Feng had not expected was that Lan Yuxin would actually come looking for him on her own.
Seeing her serious expression, Ling Feng inexplicably felt a hint of panic.
"Do you have time tonight?" Lan Yuxin asked calmly.
"No."
"Do you have someone you like?" Lan Yuxin pressed on. She did not want to give up yet. She truly had wronged Ling Feng before, and now she wanted to make up for it.
If Ling Feng knew what Lan Yuxin was thinking, he might not have been able to stop himself from laughing. Everyone had their own choices, and Ling Feng had never really taken it to heart.
Still, first love was a little sweet~
"I do," Ling Feng said.
"Can you explain more clearly?" Lan Yuxin's expression shifted slightly. She felt that Ling Feng still had her in his heart.
"I used to like you," Ling Feng admitted directly.
"So there's still a chance?!"
Hearing that, Lan Yuxin was delighted and hurriedly spoke.
Ling Feng Was Stunned for an Entire Year!
To be honest, Lan Yuxin did have a pretty favorable impression of Ling Feng.
In her eyes, Ling Feng actually had a good personality. He was just somewhat aloof at times, making it hard to know what he was thinking.
But being around Ling Feng always made people feel light and relaxed, without too much pressure.
And she just happened to be Ling Feng's type, so the two of them somehow ended up together.
Ling Feng wondered whether, now that they were already in their second year of high school, he should indulge himself one more time.
"Then, where are we going tonight?"
Ling Feng did not answer her question. Instead, he directly gave Lan Yuxin the chance to choose.
Then Ling Feng reconsidered.
Wait, shouldn't inviting someone on a date be something a boy did? Why did it feel like their roles had been switched?!
"Alright, then see you tonight, Xiaofeng." Lan Yuxin gave Ling Feng a flirtatious wink, and his face instantly turned red.
"Seductress."
No matter what, she was his first love, and she was so devastatingly beautiful. It was normal for his heart to race, right?
He had agreed, but how was he supposed to explain it to Ling Wanqing this time? He could not say he was going out for dinner with friends again. Not even ghosts would believe that, so how could she?
Ling Feng remembered an old advertising slogan from television. What was it called again?
The taste of the sea—how the hell would I know!
At the thought of Ling Wanqing's pitiful expression, Ling Feng did not know how to explain it to her. An older brother ought to spoil his little sister a little.
The afternoon exams ended.
Ling Feng brought the matter up to Ling Wanqing. Sure enough, Ling Wanqing immediately wore an expression that said, "This baby is unhappy."
"Why is it like this again! Fine! Go do whatever you want! Don't worry about me! I can live perfectly well by myself!"
Ling Wanqing shouted loudly, immediately drawing the attention of many nearby students, who began pointing at Ling Feng and whispering.
Ling Feng was on the verge of breaking down himself. This was exactly the same as yesterday!
"Wuwu~ No one understands me!" Ling Wanqing shouted as she got up and ran out of the classroom.
Ling Feng then left as well under everyone's astonished gazes, his face full of embarrassment.
If he did not leave now, he would die of embarrassment!!
Inside the classroom, Tang Ling and the other Magical Girls were left staring in disbelief.
This familiar scene, this familiar plot—wasn't it exactly the same as yesterday!? What were these siblings doing?
Seeing that Lan Yuxin was the only one among the students who was smiling, Liu Yinxuan seemed to understand something.
Could Ling Feng's situation have something to do with her? Yuxin said she had something to do tonight. Could there be some connection?
Liu Yinxuan did not think too much about it. They were all friends. It was just a pity that there would be one fewer person for tonight's activity.
"Tang Ling, Xiaohua, let's go."
