Chapter 1388: Where Did This Self-Confidence Come From

“Where are we heading?”

Zhuang Xiaodie stared at his hands. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to reach out to her. They were like a pair of ordinary people on a blind date, from being acquaintances to mutual attraction.

“I can hear from your accent that you are not a native of Binhai City,” he said. “Come. I will take you to visit Binhai City.”

What was up with him? Was he really so obsessed with her? Would he rather give up the huge doubts he had and get along with her?

This…was not impossible.

People had seven emotions and six desires, and even a strong mind would become weak at some moments. Even heroes who supported the skies might also be addicted to the gentle touch of a lady.

Computer games were also virtual worlds. How many people knew that they are not real but were still addicted to them? Also, her dream world was incomparable to computer games.

She could not help but reach out and take his hand.

He seemed to walk aimlessly, and he enthusiastically introduced the various attractions in Binhai City, as well as famous restaurants. He was really like an ordinary man shopping with his girlfriend.

They walked through the streets, not only the lively streets but also the remote lanes to feel the old vibes of the city.

Zhuang Xiaodie’s appearance and clothing were too eye-catching, and his seemed…rather sloppy. The two of them, in this world that was very close to the real world, naturally attracted the stares of those who did not care about them being together.

The sea breeze was getting stronger and stronger. They had left the downtown area and walked back to the edge of Dongcheng District. In order to cut down on unnecessary traveling, they walked through a run-down lane.

Zhuang Xiaodie couldn’t help but glance behind her to look not at the black-and-white kitten that followed him, but at the few young men who had been following them from the beginning.

The butterflies and moths had already told her about this, but Zhang Zian was ignorant and had been talking fervently about the land.

If it hadn’t been for the black-and-white kitten blocking this information, she could have known this earlier. When they’d had the thoughts of robbing them, she would have let them cross the road and get hit by trucks. Unfortunately, they were very close when she finally received the message.

Zhuang Xiaodie was certainly not afraid of them. As long as she was willing, she could make the gas pipeline under the road suddenly explode. She could make the poles on both sides of the road fall, so as to block their path or kill them all with her thoughts. Alas, doing this in front of Zhang Zian would undoubtedly increase his suspicion, and…destroy the lively atmosphere.

If she was leading the way, she could choose other ways to get around them, but he had been walking by her side and pulling her, not allowing her to choose which way to go.

Zhang Zian talked about the past of Binhai City, but she had already known about this from his memory. However, she didn’t know why, but listening to him telling her about it felt very different from reading his memory directly.

Finally, she decided to choose a relatively peaceful means to settle the issue. She made the nearby police officers receive a phone call from an anonymous caller, saying that someone was robbing people on the road and asking them to come over as soon as possible.

“Stop!”

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

The seven young men who had hair dyed in different colors and looked very much like gangsters, suddenly appeared, blocking the front and back of the alley. Seven pairs of fascinated eyes stared at Zhuang Xiaodie and could not help but look her up and down.

“Hi!”

Zhang Zian actually raised his hand and said hello to them.

“I seem to have seen you somewhere, but I’ve forgotten where.” He laughed as if he were being very funny. “Can you introduce yourselves?”

The seven young men looked at him like he was a fool.

Even if he didn’t have common sense, couldn’t he read the atmosphere? Why had they dyed their hair? To tell to dogs that they were dangerous?

This person… Was he a psychotic individual?

Instead, it was their turn to feel fear in their seven hearts. They had heard that psychotic individuals killing other people was not considered a crime. It did not count as murder.

“Hey you, if you know what’s good for you, go take a walk. We want to play with this lady over here,” the one with the red hair said, jumping out.

Zhang Zian shook his head. “I am sorry. She does not want to play with you, so please leave.”

“Oh, how do you know that she doesn’t want to play with us?” said the one with yellow hair behind him. “Maybe she would be very happy to do so!”

Zhuang Xiaodie stood by and watched. She wouldn’t know what Zhang Zian was thinking. Was he counting on the black-and-white kitten behind him? She was afraid he would be disappointed because the kitten was being suppressed by her strength. Perhaps it may have some power remaining or some additional abilities, but it was impossible for it to have the ability to change the future as in the real world.

Zhang Zian still shook his head. “Even if she agrees, I don’t. Because I am currently her boyfriend, of course, I can decide for her.”

Zhuang Xiaodie’s hand trembled, and her mood, which had just calmed, was disturbed again.

Was he serious…? Was he deliberately doing this to enrage them?

She was confused and did not know how to describe her mood at this time. She had never had such feelings.

Perhaps he felt her trembling. He turned back and comforted her. “Don’t be afraid. It is nothing more than a few small thugs who don’t know what they’ve gotten themselves into. The security of Binhai City still needs to be strengthened.”

The words he said made them feel insulted instantly.

“Your boy is looking for death!”

“Beat him!”

“Cripple him!”

They’d hung around today from a distance, smitten with Zhuang Xiaodie. They had immediately been fascinated by her and followed without thinking. As they had not prepared in advance, they were all unarmed. Carrying arms would make them easily spotted and reported to the police. However, even though they were unarmed, there were seven of them and one of him. Wasn’t it clear that they had the upper hand?

“You…”

Zhuang Xiaodie was anxious because it was not convenient for her to make coincidences happen in front of him, and the police had not arrived. They should deliberately stall for time, but he had deliberately angered them. Had he done this to force her to interfere?

If she didn’t do so, he would definitely be beaten until he was miserable.

He let go of her hand, pushed her to the side, waved his arms and legs, stretched his muscles, and smiled. “Although I don’t know why, my heart is full of confidence. I feel like they are seven weaklings.”

He didn’t have memories of the daily business of the pet shop. However, when there were pets in his hands, he worked naturally and completed his tasks with them at lighting speed. Even his parents, who had been in the pet industry for many years, were amazed.

In the same way, his physical strength was very poor, and he could become very tired from climbing a mountain. He also had no memories of learning self-defense, but…

The memory in one’s mind may disappear, but the memory of the body, or the conditioning that was formed by long-term training, was not so easy to forget.
