Chapter 967: Chapter 392: The Mysterious Pretty Boy (Part 3)

Tang Xintian smiled, about to continue, but someone called out to her.

"Sister Tang?!"

Sister Da Tang is apparently super famous in the circle, but today’s outfit was somewhat unusual, most people didn’t recognize her.

Now, a little girl with a head full of red hair shouted out, instantly attracting almost everyone’s attention.

Tang Xintian didn’t stop walking, just waved her hand.

"Dou Dou, come here."

The red-haired little girl grabbed her skirt and rushed over, looking very happy.

And on the path Han Lie and Tang Xintian were walking, people began to approach.

"Sister Tang, you’re here?"

"Senior Tang, I’m your junior by two years, do you remember me?"

"Tang the beauty, you haven’t lost your charm since returning to the country!"

Since Han Lie became famous, he had never been so ignored.

However, now he’s gladly taking a backseat to Tang Xintian, enjoying her influence in the study abroad circle like a spectator.

It’s clear she’s accustomed to all of this.

Nodding, waving, simple responses, her feet never stop.

Although many people are gathering, no one blocks her way, sometimes she waves from afar and it’s enough.

So Han Lie can still whisper to her.

"Sister Da Tang, you’re quite popular and prestigious... Why did you insist on bringing me here? Am I just an accessory?"

"Don’t rush."

Tang Xintian suddenly curled her lips in a playful and somewhat mischievous smile.

"The tricky ones are inside... You’ll get a chance to perform later."

Nearby, Dou Dou suddenly looked up, scrutinizing Han Lie with curiosity as she found him unfamiliar.

"Sister Tang, who is this trashily handsome guy? You didn’t really pick someone like him as your boyfriend, did you?"

Han Lie was immediately filled with black lines.

You can call me trashily handsome, I am indeed handsome.

But what do you mean by "someone like him"?

Am I really that unimpressive to you?

Han Lie met her gaze and deliberately showed a dangerously charming smile, asking her, "Little girl, do you know what my hobby is?"

The red-haired Dou Dou scoffed dismissively.

"You won’t say it’s eating, sleeping, and fighting Dou Dou, will you? That’s so outdated, think again!"

After mocking Han Lie, she whined to Tang Xintian, "Sister Tang, this man isn’t really it, he’s outdated and trashy, look at his ears, he doesn’t even have an ear hole..."

Han Lie was stunned.

Damn it, am I being ridiculed by my peers for not being trendy enough?!

I’ll own the trashy part, but outdated, what the hell?!

Dou Dou appeared to be just over 18, and by the generational divide of three years, she and Han Lie are indeed the same age.

However, perhaps Dou Dou is the true post-95, while Han Lie is merely an aging kid in a young shell...

"Ha ha!"

Tang Xintian laughed and hugged Dou Dou’s shoulders, introducing, "This is Han Lie, you should call him brother. Haven’t you heard of the rising star in the Magic Capital’s financial circle? That’s him."

"Haven’t heard of him..."

Dou Dou shook her head obediently and honestly, looked Han Lie up and down again, still so casual and lacking in awe.

"In the finance circle? Then aren’t you a black-hearted young one... No wonder you don’t fit in with peers."

Pfft!

Han Lie almost spat out a mouthful of old man’s blood.

If this were intentional insults, he might not be upset; he’d just find a way to retaliate later and feel better.

But Dou Dou’s candid remarks didn’t carry much malice, just pure dislike for a trashy guy, expressing herself innocently.

Yet precisely because of that, it’s particularly deadly.

Han Lie was dying to spank her but clearly couldn’t, so he ended up using his Oscar-worthy acting skills to mimic the ultra-sleazy Zhang Han smirk and raised an eyebrow at her...

Dou Dou instantly shivered, goosebumps cascading down.

"Eww~~ Sister Tang, do something about him! I’m about to puke from disgust!"

Tang Xintian laughed and patted Han Lie, lightly scolding, "Childish ghost! You’re awfully free, is bullying little ones that fun?"

Yes!

When dealing with unruly kids who can’t be beaten or scolded, what’s wrong with disgustingly teasing her a little?

Joy!

However, Han Lie couldn’t enjoy his joy for long; Tang Xintian’s actions were too intimate, too unabashed, causing many to widen their eyes in amazement.

Simultaneously, hostility began to seep in, scrutinizing Han Lie, this exceptionally unfamiliar handsome young guy.
