Chapter 213 Taowu Extra: About Minglian

"Hello, Qiao Xi."

A familiar voice sounded beside her ears, someone knocked on the table, and Qiao Xi rubbed her eyes.

"What's wrong, Taowu?"

The red-haired, arrogant young man in front of her had his hands on her desk, now looking down at her condescendingly.

"It's time for a date."

The young man with a defiant look frowned at her sleepy appearance. Then, feigning indifference, he looked away and added.

"I'm just reminding you, don't forget it."

Qiao Xi paused for a moment before suddenly remembering.

When Taowu publicly announced his intention to pursue her, it really shocked the onlookers in the underworld. At first, those viewers thought it was a joke.

Qiao Xi felt the same way.

No one took it seriously, but the next day, the onlookers in the underworld saw Lord Taowu go to pick up Qiao Xi for work in a very high-profile manner.

Anyone who has ever watched the live broadcast knows it.

Qiao Xi was the last person to pass the level, and he actually successfully surpassed the four ferocious beasts and sat in that position.

At the beginning, some people were not convinced.

But after a series of new policies were implemented in the underworld, their monotonous and boring lives began to become meaningful.

There is no need to continue in this muddle-headed state.

If nothing else, at least the change is good, and they have no reason to oppose it as long as we can get down to business and do the right thing.

So, the people in the underworld agreed.

At first I just thought Taowu was just a flash in the pan. This guy's interest always comes and goes quickly.

But I didn't expect that Taowu was like a fixed-point reporting machine.

On time every day.

He even went to the mortal world to learn the 180 techniques for pursuing a human mate. It was said that Lord Taowu was cruel, violent and unruly.

It seems like I'm really moved.

Can ferocious beasts also be moved? Can they have feelings?

So much so that when Taowu suggested going out for a walk later, Qiao Xi agreed without any precautions.

As a result, I went out for a walk...

It turns out it was a date.

His roundabout character always seemed to be in contrast to his arrogant appearance. Qiao Xi straightened her clothes and looked at the red-haired young man in front of her with one hand in his pocket.

"Where are we going?"

Taowu's wandering gaze finally turned back and paused when it landed on her.

"Just follow me anyway, don't get lost."

When women go out, they usually like to go shopping in shopping malls or drug stores, or have parties and meals, and occasionally go out to play with friends.

Qiao Xi should like it, right?

Taowu secretly clenched the small piece of paper with the itinerary plan in his hand and pretended to be relaxed.

The girl showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, as if she suddenly understood something. She looked at Taowu who glanced at her several times but remained stubborn and didn't say a word.

She came over and took his hand: "This way, you won't get lost."

Taowu's body suddenly stiffened.

As if he was trying to cover up something, the next second he fiercely grabbed the girl's hand and tightened it, then turned around and glared at her fiercely as if warning.

Looks angry.

But this clearly looks more like a little wolf declaring its sovereignty.

"Let me tell you in advance, once you hold my hand, don't even think about letting go."

"Okay."

Hearing his words which did not mean any threat, the girl nodded obediently like a chick pecking at rice, and followed him closely without lagging behind.

Taowu seems calm.

However, the young man's slightly red ears had already perfectly betrayed his current state.

The date went better than expected.

The place chosen for the date was also the underworld. Taowu had cleared the area in advance so that no ghosts dared to come and watch.

The underworld also has many entertainment facilities under the new policy.

It was Taowu who built the scenes and the facilities.

Taowu wandered around the underworld until one moment, when he stopped in front of a barrier. The barrier door opened automatically, as if it also opened the door to another world.

The mysterious veil of the dreamland is unveiled.

The houses made of candy are childlike and beautiful, and the rivers of chocolate and trees made of cake create a sweet aroma that quickly spreads.

"This is……"

Qiao Xi's eyes lit up instantly.

She didn't expect that hidden beneath Taowu's awkwardness was such a childlike character.

Taowu led her into the room and touched his nose unnaturally.

"I saw you in Storybrooke before and thought you might like this."

The same thing happened when implanting false memories in girls.

He accidentally saw her longing for such a beautiful thing in her memory, so he thought about it.

If there is a chance someday.

Give her a secret world that belongs only to her.

"You can come here when you're tired. There's a forest to the east and a playground to the west."

Taowu introduced her one by one.

When passing by the castle in the north, she secretly pinched a piece to taste it, and the sweet and soft ice cream cake quickly melted in her mouth.

It turned out that she cheated.

Instead, it alarmed the gingerbread soldiers guarding the castle, and they ran out angrily holding Christmas candy canes.

After discovering it was Qiao Xi.

He actually bowed respectfully, and then quietly repaired the small piece that she had stolen.

Watching this scene, Qiao Xi became more and more curious.

"What is this? Aren't they angry?"

Taowu glanced at them casually, "Well... here, you are the queen, they won't do anything to you."

Gingerbread men are edible, too.

It is also delicious, and he is the one who gives it a simple consciousness.

In this self-created space, Taowu is undoubtedly the master, so he is also the king here by default.

"So there are such little thoughts hidden."

"Then... do you hate it?" Taowu was a little hesitant.

"I don't hate it, I like it very much." Qiao Xi stood on tiptoe to touch the young man's head, but failed because of the height difference.

Seeing this, Taowu quickly bent down slightly. Seeing that the girl was about to take her hand back, he grabbed Qiao Xi's wrist and forced her to put her hand on his head. When he raised his eyes again, his arrogance was not concealed at all.

"No one else has touched me, you are the first."

“…You’re so childish.”

"People say love makes people stupid. I might be in trouble before it even starts."

Every time I give her a gift, I try to figure out her preferences.

I have also drawn some people's dissatisfaction because of my high profile, but it is all worth it.

He has a high opinion of himself and is difficult to tame.

But now he is willing to put aside his pride and be gentle to her. Although he is not so frank yet, it is enough for now.

"I really don't know what you like about me."

Qiao Xi finally pulled her hand back and muttered softly.

It is neither about greed for souls nor about demanding transactions.

When Taowu heard her words, his face immediately darkened.

"Huh? You still don't know?" He scratched his head a little irritably. How could he say it? Could he say it was because he saw her tearing monsters apart with her bare hands in the live broadcast room?

Although they were just some little gadgets he made casually.

But it is still very dangerous for humans.

Probably... it was from that time that she really caught his attention.

Taowu held her shoulders and spoke every word seriously under the girl's somewhat puzzled gaze.

"Listen carefully, I'm interested in you, the individual named 'Qiao Xi', and I've developed feelings similar to love. I get anxious when I can't see you, and I get annoyed when I see you being intimate with others. Do you understand?"

"I understand..."

"Then, let's start dating from today."

The reason for everything.

It all started with a comment he had posted in the live broadcast room when he first saw her.

[Master, Unruly: Very good, this woman has successfully caught my attention]

That's where the dream begins.
