The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

Xu Wenwan ignored Liu Zi. After waiting a moment, she stepped outside and called another person in.

The man who came in was startled to see Liu Zi collapsed on the ground. Xu Wenwan explained that Liu Zi’s legs had gone soft and he couldn’t stand. His companion went over to check and, upon confirming that his legs had indeed given out, began to mock him mercilessly.

”Seriously, Liu Zi, how long has it been since you’ve been with a woman? Pathetic.”

Liu Zi wanted to explain, but he didn’t know what to say, so he just kept his mouth shut.

His companion started getting handsy with Xu Wenwan, but soon he, too, collapsed weakly to the ground.

Seeing this, Xu Wenwan sneered and stepped forward.

”You people think you can touch me? Have you even looked at yourselves?”

With that, she viciously kicked both men a few times before straightening her clothes and walking out from behind the ruined wall.

Xu Wenwan was furious. ’Those disgusting thugs... how dare they try to take advantage of me!’

’Thank god for the System. Otherwise, I would have been in real danger today.’

Since their fortune had just been drained, these men would enter a period of weakness. During this time, they were completely powerless—she could have taken on several of them by herself.

Mr. Jiu and his two henchmen had become so weak, but Feng Ergou hadn’t. That was because Feng Ergou’s fortune hadn’t been completely drained. The System, however, had siphoned away every last bit of these three men’s fortune, leading to a different outcome.

Xu Wenwan hurried out of the alley. She decided she would sell the facial soap herself from now on. She was never coming back here again, nor would she ever work with Mr. Jiu.

Lost in thought and walking quickly, she wasn’t paying attention as she rounded a corner and bumped right into someone.

Being so petite, Xu Wenwan was sent stumbling right into the man’s arms. He was startled for a second before he recovered, wrapping an arm around her waist to steady her.

Xu Wenwan’s hands brushed against the fabric of his clothes. She looked up, her small face filled with alarm.

The man’s expression was placid, but as his eyes fell on Xu Wenwan’s charming, alluring face, a flicker of stunned admiration flashed within them.

They locked eyes for a few seconds before Xu Wenwan, flustered, quickly pushed him away.

”I’m so sorry, sir. I wasn’t watching where I was going.”

The man’s voice was gentle. ”It’s all right. Are you hurt? It was my fault as well.”

”By the way, I’m An Dongyang. May I ask your name?”

Xu Wenwan silently repeated the name. ’I don’t remember a character like that in the novel,’ she thought. ’He must be a native of this world.’

’The novel is a complete world, and its plot only shows one facet of it.’

’It’s like the phrase ”several years later.” In the novel, it’s just a few words, but in this reality, three years have actually passed. A lot can change in three years.’

”Mr. An, you can just call me Wen Wan.”

After speaking, Xu Wenwan glanced at the sky. She needed to get back home quickly.

”Mr. An, it’s getting late. I have to go.”

With that, she rushed off.

An Dongyang had just raised a hand to call out to her, but she was already gone.

He stood there wistfully, as if in a daze. It was his first time meeting such a beautiful girl, but unfortunately, he only got her name and didn’t have a chance to ask where she lived.

An Dongyang was still gazing in the direction Xu Wenwan had disappeared when someone approached him from across the street. The newcomer saw An Dongyang staring and followed his gaze, but saw nothing out of the ordinary.

”Dongyang, what are you looking at?”

An Dongyang pulled his gaze away and shook his head. ”Nothing.”

”Any news on that traditional Chinese medicine doctor I asked you to look into?”
