Ushiha stamped her foot and deliberately walked around behind the man to stand in front of him, wanting to see her face clearly.
The person's face was almost completely buried in the bowl, so it was impossible to see what they looked like!
"Hey, can you really eat all that by yourself?" Ushiha said angrily.
The man seemed not to have heard Ushiha's words at all, remaining motionless in that position. One by one, the glutinous rice balls in his bowl were magically stuffed into his mouth, disappearing almost without chewing.
Ushiha felt more ashamed than ever before. She was left standing there by this strange man, unsure whether to leave or stay.
She threw a stone at the man. She didn't actually throw it at him, but rather at the bowl next to him, intending to smash it and scare him.
However, the stone still flew straight towards the man's face.
The man was quick and abrupt; he suddenly raised his head, raised his hand, and grabbed the stone that was heading straight for his face.
He actually has blue eyes!
The moment Ushiha saw his face, the stone bounced back like a ball and flew towards him.
Oh dear~~
Ushiha felt the stone strike his left shoulder, and a piercing pain immediately contorted his face.
Several people standing near the flower basket naturally saw that Ushiha had been stoned, and one of the two guards ran over there as fast as he could. Bechuk and Namin also quickly followed.
Ushiha clutched her left shoulder with her right hand, tears welling in her eyes from the pain. She didn't know why pebbles hurt so much when they hit someone.
"Gege~"
The guards had already run over and flew to Ushiha's side.
Seeing that Ushiha was in so much pain that tears were streaming down his face, the guard didn't dare to help him up. Instead, he turned to the man and shouted, "Who are you? How dare you treat our princesses with such despicable behavior?"
The man looked at Wuxiha and saw that she was wearing a green-blue cheongsam with three layers of horseshoe sleeves embroidered with bamboo leaves and other patterns. He raised his hand and touched his nose, saying, "I didn't hit her, she hit me. The stone just bounced back."
Ushiha glared at the man angrily and said, "A stone isn't a ball that can bounce back. You were the one who hit me."
"Hehe, someone threw stones at me. Am I wrong to throw them back?" the man said, blinking. He wore a hat made of linen, and his clothes weren't the traditional Qing Dynasty men's robes or jackets. His clothing wasn't particularly luxurious, but it suited him perfectly, looking comfortable and handsome. Around his neck were some beaded necklaces, things Uxiha didn't recognize, but which very much attracted her attention.
"Ushiha~" Namin and Bechuk had also arrived and quickly helped Ushiha up to see if she was alright.
"You! I didn't hit you directly, I only hit the bowl next to you. And you threw it at me!" Ushiha said angrily. She had never seen such a despicable person before, bullying a girl so brazenly—utterly despicable!
"I didn't mean to, but I didn't expect that pebble to have eyes. What could I do?" the man said innocently. His blue eyes were so deep and beautiful, with long, curved eyelashes like two small fans. Not only that, his nose was also very high and straight, slightly different from the men of the Qing Dynasty. His whole face was almost too beautiful. Ushiha and the others had seen foreigners with blue eyes, high noses, fair skin, and curly hair in the palace, but this person in front of them was unlike those people, yet so different.
"Princess, if you want to teach this man a lesson, this servant will do it immediately!" the guard said, glaring fiercely at the man. Under their very noses, the princess had been bullied; if Zhu Zi found out when they returned, how could they possibly save face?
Ushiha stared intently at the man, then finally said, "Forget it, I hit him first. But he ate so many glutinous rice balls by himself, and when I asked him to give me a few bowls, he stubbornly refused. It's infuriating!"
Namin and Bechuk exchanged a glance and quickly pulled Ushiha aside, saying, "Forget it, it's not like we don't have glutinous rice balls to eat in our manor."
Ushiha pouted and said, "But I just want to eat what's outside."
The man rubbed his nose again and said lazily, "Sorry, I've already bought them all. If you want some, just talk to the stall owner. What's it to me?"
Ushiha glared at the man fiercely for a few moments. Seeing how angry Ushiha was, Bechuk said, "My sister is a woman after all. You, a man, actually argue with a woman over a few dumplings. It's truly unbelievable!"
“That’s right, what kind of man are you, bullying a girl like that?” Ushiha quickly said.
“I never said I was a great man. But you Han people do have a saying, ‘Only petty people and women are difficult to deal with.’” the man said defiantly.
you!
Ushiha trembled with anger, his fingers quivering, and he roared, "Teach him a lesson!"
Originally, Ushiha wasn't the kind of person who would bully others by virtue of her power, but this man in front of her was so annoying that she couldn't hold back any longer.
Upon receiving the princess's order, the two guards immediately rushed forward and surrounded the man.
The stall owner, trembling with fear, approached Wuxiha and said, "Young lady, this old woman will make it for you right away. Let's not fight."
Ushiha was no longer in the mood to eat glutinous rice balls. He was so angry with the man that he said to the stall owner, "Don't be afraid. I'll compensate you for everything you broke."
Seeing what Ushiha said, the stall owner could only look at them with a bitter expression.
As they were saying these words, the two guards were already engaged in a fight with the strange man.
The three girls stepped aside, watching the fight nervously. They saw that the man was exceptionally skilled; the two guards did not gain the slightest advantage in their fight against him, and were instead constantly countered by him.
“This guy’s martial arts style isn’t from around here, they won’t get any advantage,” Bechuk said after watching them fight for a few rounds.
Ushiha saw it too, but she couldn't stop it at that moment, and could only watch as the man gradually gained the upper hand over the two guards. They were all fighting with their fists and feet, without using weapons to entangle, so after several rounds, no one was seriously injured.
"Ushiha, let's stop here and head back. Let's not argue with him anymore," Namin said, frowning.
