"I'm surprised you speak such good Chinese."
"There's a school in the church, and there are teachers teaching." Nusi took out a Chinese oral book and said, "When I have free time, I just practice with the book."
Lan Xiaolan nodded happily. On her first day in a foreign country, she finally made a friend with whom she could communicate in a simple way. She was very happy.
"Why did they beat you?" Lan Xiaolan asked with concern.
Nusi lowered her head, not daring to speak. She didn't dare look directly at Lan Xiaolan, as if she had something to hide.
Ren Tingxi gave Lan Xiaolan a cold look, reminding her not to ask questions that she shouldn't ask.
Because he knew that even if Lan Xiaolan knew, she couldn't help her and it would hurt Nu Si's self-esteem. In that case, it would be better for her not to meddle in other people's business.
"Let's go, I'll take you home." As he said that, Ren Tingxi reached out to Lan Xiaolan, wanting to hold her hand and leave.
Nusi tugged at Lan Xiaolan's hand, trying to get her away from Ren Tingxi: "You have to be careful, no man is a good thing, don't be fooled by him."
LAN Xiaolan looked at Ren Tingxi and smiled: "Don't worry, it's okay, he is my friend Ren Tingxi, he won't hurt me."
Even though Lan Xiaolan repeatedly assured her, Nusi was still a little worried.
But thinking about how Ren Tingxi protected her behind him and shot her to protect her outside the door just now, Nusi could barely believe that Ren Tingxi would not hurt her.
When Ren Tingxi heard Lan Xiaolan introduce him to others as her "friend", he immediately frowned and looked dissatisfied.
He forcibly took Lan Xiaolan's hand and was about to pull her away: "Let's go, it's not safe here."
As soon as they stepped out of the door, they were surrounded by a group of girls dressed in colorful clothes.
It seems that one crisis after another is brewing.
Leading the group was a girl wearing a red floral dress.
Her head was covered with all kinds of decorations, her nose was pierced with jeweled nails, and her ears were covered with heavy earrings that hung down to her shoulders.
She wore different decorations and silver circles around her neck and arms, making her stand out among the group of girls.
It seems that she is the leader of this group of girls. Lan Xiaolan and Ren Tingxi ruined their good fortune today, and they are here to hold her accountable.
The girl crossed her arms and asked arrogantly, "Chinese?"
"Yes." Ren Tingxi replied calmly.
"No matter where you are from, if you come to our place, you must abide by our rules."
"oh?"
"You are foreigners, so I won't bother with you and can let you go. But Nusi is one of us."
"Because she ruined all of our good fortune today, we will never let her go."
The other people behind the girl began to shout in response.
Ren Tingxi curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled coolly.
He opened his clothes and slowly took out a full stack of US dollar bills. He casually took out a few and politely handed them to the leading girl.
"I don't know if this is in line with your rules."
The girl snatched the money with one hand, grinned, and counted it with satisfaction.
Seeing this, the angry girl in the house rushed out like crazy, snatched the money collected by the girl with one hand, and stuffed it back into Ren Tingxi's hand.
"No! No no no! I can take your money, just...quickly take it away..."
Nusi pointed at the girls she had grown up with and said uncontrollably, "You can't accept money from this man. Absolutely not."
Then she stared at Ren Tingxi fiercely, her eyes sharp as if she wanted to kill him: "You can't spend money on me, absolutely not, absolutely not. I won't go with you, no no no! Absolutely not!"
Then Nusi walked behind Lan Xiaolan in a panic and begged bitterly, "Xiaolan, I beg you, please don't let this man spend money on me. I don't want to go with him."
Then she kept shivering and hugging herself with her arms crossed to protect herself: "I won't! I absolutely won't! I won't go with a man, I won't!"
Lan Xiaolan saw Nusi, who was out of control and panicked, and went forward to hug her: "It's okay, don't be afraid, Tingxi doesn't want to buy you, Tingxi doesn't mean that."
When Ren Tingxi saw Nusi going crazy, he realized that he had done something he shouldn't have done.
"There are men willing to pay a huge price for you, but you're still unwilling to accept. Look at your face, you look like neither human nor ghost."
"If a man is willing to give you money, you should just smile secretly. Who are you trying to show off to by being so shy?"
The leading girl started to curse in disdain, and the people around her began to echo her.
"That's right! That's right! You have hands and feet, but you don't go out to earn money. You stay in the house reading books all day. Are you waiting for us to support you?"
"That's right! We'll all be selling our bodies to make money, being called dirty while still supporting useless people like this."
"She sits around doing nothing all day, yet she becomes a saint, while we work ourselves to death to support her. Why do you think that's right, isn't it?"
The girls were so excited that their faces turned red, like a volcano erupting. Their aura was no less than that of the group of burly drivers standing outside the door.
They pressed on step by step, as if they would eat her alive if she couldn't get the money today.
After hearing this, Lan Xiaolan finally understood some of the meaning.
Ren Tingxi used his strong body to block Lan Xiaolan and Nu Si. He was not afraid of a group of old men with weapons, let alone a group of women.
Ren Tingxi took out his pistol and knocked on the door frame: "I don't hit women, get out of here."
Seeing the gun, everyone subconsciously stepped back.
But the girl in the lead was not afraid. She still crossed her arms and walked towards Ren Tingxi calmly.
Then she sneered, "Haha, I told you, you are foreigners, we won't make things difficult for you, we'll let you go now."
"But... Nusi is different. She's one of us. No matter who you are, where you come from, or how powerful you are, in the Living Tomb City, we have our own rules."
"As long as you are here, you cannot break the rules here."
Ren Tingxi naturally understood all this. He could not take away the indigenous people of the Living Cemetery City for no reason, as this would provoke conflicts between the two countries.
But Lan Xiaolan is here today, and she will definitely take care of such trivial matters.
It wasn't difficult to solve. These girls were just looking for money, and what Ren Tingxi lacked the least was money.
Ren Tingxi is certainly different from those obscene men who are out there seeking pleasure. He spends money on Nusi in order to solve the trouble here, not to buy her or make her do something with him.
Of course Ren Tingxi didn't mean that.
But Nusi was a stubborn person. She thought he was the same as all the bad men in the world and didn't buy his story.
Ren Tingxi looked at Lan Xiaolan and didn't know what to do for a moment.
