Chapter 58

  "Clear lotus, clear lotus."

  Xiao Su's voice came from behind, I turned my head to look at her, and found that she was squatting on the bench with an excited face, holding a notebook in her hand and waving it frantically at me.

  "What's going on?" I lowered my voice and asked quietly.

  I also don't know if she can hear my voice in such a noisy situation.

  "Quickly, continue with the lotus clearing."

  I was still completely out of it, staring at her in a daze, when Xiao Su's arm swung up and a notebook flew through the air in a parabolic arc towards me.

  Before I could react, the book was flying towards my face at the speed of light. Wasn't that a mistake? It happened so fast that I didn't even have time to cover my face.

  With a swish, a hand stretched out from behind my shoulder and quickly grasped the notebook, tightly pinching it in his hand.

  "Hey, stinky woman, what are you doing?"

  The fox's angry roar sounded from behind, Xiao Su was obviously startled by the fox, and his face, which had been full of smiles just now, suddenly turned bitter.

  She finally spared the glance from Tang Renjie's face and shifted it to mine, wearing a pitiful expression as she looked at me, her hands clasped together in a pleading gesture, probably wanting me to speak up for her.

  "Let it go, Xiao Su didn't mean to. She probably has something she needs help with and that's why she acted like this. Don't be angry."

  "Need help?" The fox's gaze turned to me, and it shouted in anger: "How can this be? You're asking for help but you're smashing things! This precious face of mine isn't something that just any fox can cultivate. What if she smashes it and ruins it?"

  "Don't worry, this thing was thrown at me. If you hadn't caught it just now, the book wouldn't have hit you either. It would probably have only hit Tang Renjie or me, and it's still some distance away from you. Why make such a big fuss?"

  "What's wrong with me making a big deal out of a small matter? Where did I make a big deal out of a small matter? You'd better tell me clearly, where did I make a big deal out of a small matter?"

  The fox's voice grew louder and louder, until my ears buzzed with the sound.

  "You should take a look at your own face, it's so ugly that it can't be described. Normally, I don't say you're ugly because I'm afraid of hurting your feelings. But today, if you weren't careful and got smashed by her, smashing your face beyond recognition, then from now on, don't appear in front of me again, lest I get nauseous and lose my appetite. And also, don't go out casually, or you might scare people to death."

  "Alright, I won't scare anyone else."

  Even if I want to scare, I only want to scare the smelly fox to death. I viciously spat out this sentence in my heart and pressed my ears a few times. The fox's voice was really not ordinary, comparable to firecrackers.

  I'm really speechless about this fox, it looks handsome but doesn't have any gentlemanly demeanor, and doesn't even learn from Tang Renjie's example. Although he talks less, it's better that way, no need to bother others with his troubles.

  I turned my head and looked at the other side, where Tang Renjie was sitting expressionlessly with a language textbook in his hand, looking very serious. However, upon closer inspection, I found that the book was upside down. Could it be that this fox-like man was used to reading books upside down?
