Ilya lifted the big cat—no, the tiger by its ears—and made it stand at attention, giving it a stern lecture on protecting Chien.
The tiger nuzzled Qianyuan and let out a roar. It was originally so majestic, but Qianyuan couldn't resist reaching out and touching the tiger's chin again.
The tiger gave up completely and collapsed at Qianyuan's feet.
Ilya couldn't help but feel jealous.
Even a strange creature can interact so intimately with Qianyuan, having its chin stroked by Qianyuan and being praised in a very gentle tone to sit down.
Well, all it can do is sit down, just like Ilya can. Why is it that the monster gets Qianyuan's praise just for doing simple things like drinking water and eating?
If Qianyuan could praise him, he would let her sit on his lap.
He could also be Qianyuan's dog.
Jealousy caused Ilya to lose his composure.
Qianyuan and the tiger were still being affectionate when he noticed Ilya's gaze and turned to ask him, "Aren't you going?"
Ilya: ...
Ilya was driven away by Chiyuki, who kept looking back every few steps.
Qianyuan patted the tiger's head: "Let's go, let's go look for clues too."
The instance that Qianyuan and the others entered was an amusement park that had been closed for a long time.
It is also the largest game instance in the city in terms of area and population.
Qianyuan had the tiger attach itself to her prop to avoid being too conspicuous.
However, things didn't go as Qian Yuan expected. Even in the infinite game set against a backdrop of bloodshed and crisis, some people were still amazed by Qian Yuan's beautiful appearance.
Many people were secretly watching Qian Yuan, and some even had ulterior motives after seeing her all alone.
Several men walked over and blocked Qianyuan's way.
"Miss."
Qian Yuan hadn't realized they were calling him yet. He was about to walk straight past when one of the people put his hand on Qian Yuan's shoulder and acted as if they knew each other well.
"Beautiful lady, are you alone? Where is your boyfriend? How could he bear to leave you all alone?"
Qian Yuan tried to back away, but couldn't. Perhaps in their eyes, he was just a treasure with an empty exterior but no weapons, someone they could take whatever they wanted.
The man continued to press:
"How many times have you entered the dungeon? These dungeons are not child's play. How could a girl like you possibly clear them? Those NPCs won't let you off just because you shed a few tears."
"But if you stay with us, we will still protect you. Once you join us, we will be a team, and all the brothers will take care of you."
"We're all from a boxing club, we can fight, and we're smart and emotionally intelligent. All we're missing is a beautiful woman to brighten up our team. Don't worry, we're all gentlemen and won't do anything out of line!"
Before Qianyuan could refuse, someone reached out and pulled her away.
The commotion around Qian Yuan was so big that everyone noticed it. Moreover, Qian Yuan was not only beautiful, but he was also leaning on a cane, had a pale face, and was very thin. He looked like a frail willow, and was obviously a patient.
No matter how beastly you are, you can't lay a hand on such a pitiful little girl!
A woman's voice boldly cut in between them:
"What, you fawn over every girl you see, and all you do is try to scam them. Even if you dress smartly, you can't hide the stench of rotten people you're all!"
"You little brat, you've got quite the nerve. Everyone knows what you're thinking. You dare lay a hand on a frail little girl? You're a beast! I'll tear you apart!"
Qianyuan was held tightly in the girl's arms, and she was stunned by the girl's crude speech to the group of men.
They watched their prize slip away, feeling resentful. But then a dozen or so people, both men and women, stood up next to the girl. It was clearly a much larger and more organized group than theirs, so they had no choice but to leave in silence.
The girl looked at Qian Yuan, who was like a frightened little animal, and hadn't even reacted yet. She leaned weakly on her shoulder, and a feeling of pity welled up in her heart.
She truly is a beautiful young lady, so lovely and adorable... Even if no one else were to raise her, I would be willing to take care of her for the rest of my life.
The girl blushed and asked, "Are you...are you alright?"
It's no wonder the other party misjudged him. Qian Yuan's temperament was gentle in every way, making it easy to categorize him as a vulnerable person. Moreover, the way she looked at Qian Yuan was very similar to Lin Xuehu's, with a feeling of pity and affection. Therefore, Qian Yuan didn't know that the other party had completely misunderstood.
"I'm fine... thank you."
Qianyuan could have resolved the matter himself, but since the other party was so enthusiastic, he felt he had to thank them.
Because he was dressed as a woman, he deliberately softened his voice, making it sound more neutral and not out of place.
In the eyes of girls, she's even cuter.
She couldn't help but pinch Qianyuan's cheek again: "Come with me, I'll make sure all those stinky men who dare to covet you fly away!! I'll protect you!!"
Qian Yuan wasn't used to girls getting so close to him and being so naturally affectionate, but given his current status, such actions were quite common... So when he was touched, he didn't know whether to politely refuse or let the other person do whatever they wanted to him.
The girl liked Qian Yuan even more because of her slow reaction time and cute, silly kitten-like appearance, and took her away without saying a word.
She told her friends, "I've found a cat! She wants to come home with me!"
The others looked at Chiyuki, who had been "kidnapped" by the girl: ...
They chose to remain silent because they didn't want to speak out.
The girl stayed close to Qianyuan, afraid that he would be shy or embarrassed.
