Early the next morning, just as Zhao Ming and Xiao Wu were enjoying their ti together, Tang San knocked on the door of the Seventh Dormitory, carrying a large blanket.
"What do you want?" Upon seeing Tang San push open the door, Wang Sheng quickly stepped forward to block him.
Wang Sheng was aware of the grudge between Tang San and Zhao Ming. Especially after hearing Xiao Wu ntion the fight that occurred on the playground yesterday, he felt even more alert. He suspected that Tang San was here for revenge.
"I'm also a work-study student. This dormitory is mine too. What, can't I co in?" Tang San smiled slightly.
"This...?" Wang Sheng hesitated. It was true that Tang San's dormitory was indeed the Seventh Dormitory, so he had no grounds to stop him.
Tang San? He ca here so soon? Zhao Ming glanced at Tang San, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.
"Ah, stop it." Feeling Zhao Ming's hands start to wander while holding her, Xiao Wu playfully scolded him. Yet her tone lacked any real anger; it was more like she was teasing.
Xiao Wu's voice caught Tang San's attention, and his eyes instantly turned red.
At that mont, Zhao Ming sat on the edge of the bed, holding Xiao Wu in his arms and gently combing her hair. Xiao Wu snuggled against him like a little kitten, eyes half-closed, a soft smile gracing her face.
The morning sun stread through the window, casting a warm glow on the two of them.
It was peaceful and serene, like a beautiful painting.
But why am I not the main character in this painting? Tang San couldn't help but silently shout in his heart.
Yet he found himself unable to voice anything. There was nothing he could do at that mont!
He needed to find a way to regain his standing in Xiao Wu's eyes, expose Zhao Ming's true nature, and then take him out with his hidden weapons.
However, at that mont, Xiao Wu looked so cute, completely different from her usual gentle deanor.
Watching Xiao Wu's smiling face, Tang San felt entranced.
But why is it not ?
Zhao Ming observed Tang San's every move, a subtle smile playing on his lips. Tang San shot Zhao Ming a resentful glare. Normally composed, he now felt a surge of anger at the sight of Zhao Ming. He longed to use his hidden weapons to take Zhao Ming down imdiately, but he knew that his sleeve arrows wouldn't be enough to defeat him.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Wu noticed that Zhao Ming had stopped combing her hair. Curious, she followed his gaze and caught sight of Tang San at the door.
Seeing Tang San, Xiao Wu quickly got up from Zhao Ming's lap and stepped toward him. "Tang San, what are you doing here? Are you still upset about getting beaten yesterday? If you're not satisfied, we can practice again right now!" She placed her hands on her hips, looking fiercely at him.
Tang San smiled wryly, shaking his head at Xiao Wu's playful challenge.
"I'm also a work-study student, so this dormitory is mine," he said.
"Also, I realize I was rude yesterday. I apologize for my earlier actions," Tang San added thoughtfully, glancing at Zhao Ming.
Zhao Ming recognized that look—it was a provocation!
"Don't worry about yesterday. We didn't take it to heart. We're all classmates after all; there's no need to make things awkward," Zhao Ming replied nonchalantly.
Hearing Zhao Ming say he didn't mind, Xiao Wu relaxed, thinking of him as a generous boy who wouldn't hold grudges over trivial matters. However, she still raised her fist threateningly at Tang San as he entered.
Tang San settled in beside Zhao Ming, laying out the blanket. The distance between their beds was barely three feet.
Zhao Ming was well aware of Tang San's intentions. However, he didn't mind. If Tang San dared to make a move on his Xiao Wu, he would surely teach him a lesson about cruelty.
As they walked through the bustling streets of Nuoding City, with people coming and going and various small shops lining the sides, Xiao Wu, with her naturally lively spirit, wandered around, glancing at everything. Despite having visited many tis before, she still found wonder in the sights. Especially the clothing shops—Xiao Wu had no resistance against pretty clothes.
Zhao Ming was more than happy to indulge her. Seeing Xiao Wu in beautiful clothes would be a feast for his eyes. However, he scoffed at the styles in the clothing stores. He was contemplating whether he should open a clothing store himself, designing more appealing outfits. After all, clothes can greatly enhance a person's overall appearance.
Especially useful clothing. For instance, lingerie. The current underwear in Douluo Continent was little more than a small belly band, providing no support for the chest. Won past a certain age would find themselves at risk of sagging, which could severely affect their health.
Particularly for soone like Zhu Zhuqing, without proper support, it was easy for her figure to beco misshapen. Having already considered Zhu Zhuqing as soone he admired, Zhao Ming didn't want to see that happen.
With the lingerie industry, he might just beco a successful young entrepreneur selling lingerie in Douluo Continent.
If every woman bought four to five pieces, at ten gold soul coins each, that would be a huge profit! He could brand it and establish a luxury clothing brand akin to Chanel...
Cough, cough, seems like I've strayed too far off topic!
But these things aren't urgent.
