Chapter 105: Hidden Like
Xu Rourou had been standing in the corner the whole time and looked very inconspicuous. Even if someone noticed her, they would not give her a second look.
Her eyes were focused on Xu Shiting.
She had been looking at Xu Shiting with deep affection in her eyes.
When she heard it was Xu Rule who saved Xu Shiting, she felt it was ridiculous.
Xu Rourou was the one who had risked her life and lost the most important thing to save Xu Shiting. However, no one knew she was the one who did it. Not even Xu Shiting knew.
Xu Shiting thought it was Xu Rule who saved him. He only believed in Rule. Xu Rourou had tried to explain herself, but he did not believe her words at all.
Once Xu Rule put on an act, Xu Shiting would wholeheartedly support her.
Just like everyone in her family.
Her parents and even the servants in her house looked down on her.
Xu Rourou had tried her best to become stronger since she was young, but the result was the same. No matter how strong she became, as long as Xu Rule acted coquettishly, everyone’s eyes would be focused on her.
Therefore, she was already used to being ignored and not being seen by others.
She was used to being invisible and being looked down on by everyone. In the end, she didn’t try to explain herself anymore.
Leng Rongrong wanted to greet the other lady, but she saw that Xu Rourou seemed to be immersed in her world. Many people around her were focused on her, so she did not proceed with it.
She did not want to disturb Xu Rourou.
But even if Leng Rongrong didn’t disturb her, there were still people around who bothered Xu Rourou.
Some people who were having a discussion noticed Xu Rourou.
Someone laughed. “That’s Xu Rourou, right? Both girls are Master Xu’s nieces, but Xu Rourou and Xu Rule are truly different!”
“That’s right. Someone like her seriously came to the Nether Abyss Empire Island? Is she qualified?”
“She must have insisted and begged to come with her sister. That’s probably why Master Xu allowed her to come!”
“Xu Rule is so good at dressing up, and she is so pretty, but this Xu Rourou really can’t do it. She dresses pathetically, and she always covers her face. Does she look like a ghost? Is she so afraid of seeing people?”
“Even though they are blood-related sisters, the difference is truly great!”
“She is truly pathetic. Xu Rule has always been arrogant and despotic, but Xu Rourou has always been weak and incompetent. It’s natural for Master Xu to dislike Xu Rourou.”
“She wouldn’t be here to see how Master Xu dies, would she?”
“That’s truly vicious!”
******
There was a lot of discussion around them. When they talked about Xu Rourou, they looked at her with disdain and disgust as if she was some dirty thing.
Even though Xu Rule was arrogant and had a bad temper, everyone still showed respect and admiration when they talked about her.
Although they were biological sisters, the difference was apparent.
Leng Rongrong frowned as she heard this. She glanced in Xu Rourou’s direction, but Xu Rourou kept staring at Xu Shiting and turned a deaf ear to the surrounding conversations.
She must have been used to such comments. After all, these people dared to talk about her in such a way.
“A wild dog is about to attack Master Xu!”
Leng Rongrong shouted on purpose.
Then, everyone’s attention shifted from Xu Rourou to Xu Shiting, and no one talked anymore.
The dogs had surrounded Xu Shiting. Xu Shiting had already loosened his tie and revealed his fair neck. Although he was a man, his skin was as white as porcelain, and his Adam’s apple was greatly enticing.
The women in the stands were all mesmerized by Xu Shiting.
Master Xu stood in the middle of the pack of wild dogs. These wild dogs were baring their teeth and drooling incessantly. It was obvious that they were famished. They looked at Xu Shiting as if they were looking at a sizable, delicious chicken leg. Their eyes were shining with excitement.
A few wild dogs suddenly attacked Xu Shiting.
Xu Shiting’s eyes turned cold. He kicked a wild dog over with his one hand and grabbed the neck of another dog with his other hand. He threw the dog away and knocked over a few other dogs.
“He’s so handsome!”
“Good skill, Master Xu!”
There was an uproar in the arena, followed by the sound of people holding their breaths.
Countless wild dogs started to attack again.
This time, these wild dogs attacked Xu Shiting from all directions. Although Xu Shiting was fast and fierce, he was unarmed, and these wild dogs were in a good position to attack him.
The wild dogs’ group attack made Xu Shiting unable to cover all sides.
Although many wild dogs had been seriously injured by him, he was also inevitably scratched and bitten in several places.
A large piece of his white shirt was torn at the back of his waist. It revealed his fair skin.
“Master Xu is so fair!”
“Master Xu’s skin is so fair that even women are jealous!”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, injuries on his skin will leave scars in the future!”
“Come on, Master Xu! There’s still ten minutes left!”
Many people on the stage exclaimed in surprise.
Of course, Xu Shiting did not hear anything outside through the glass. He just dealt with the wild dogs in silence.
Xu Rourou was also very nervous, and her heart was in her mouth.
She found an empty spot and grabbed a handful of silver needles. She was ready to help Xu Shiting.
She couldn’t bear to see Xu Shiting get hurt.
Even though Xu Shiting didn’t like her, she still liked him and wanted to protect him.
Suddenly, Xu Rourou’s eyes turned cold. She saw a hungry dog pouncing on Xu Shiting from behind, and Xu Shiting was dealing with a few vicious dogs in front of him.
If she didn’t stop it, Xu Shiting’s back would be injured!
Without thinking much, the silver needle in her hand flew out.
The ferocious dog that was pouncing on Xu Shitih suddenly landed on the ground. Following that, several other ferocious dogs around him also followed the same fate.
Xu Shiting didn’t notice it at first, but as the dogs that were attacking him fell to the ground, he sensed something and turned around.
He looked around the stage.
Then, his eyes fell on Xu Rourou.
Xu Rourou timidly pulled her hat down, her eyes were in a panic as if she didn’t even dare to look at Xu Shiting.
Xu Shiting was greatly astonished.
Someone was helping him.
But who was it?
It couldn’t be Xu Rourou, right?
She didn’t know any martial arts, and she was so timid that she didn’t even dare to speak loudly.
Right, it couldn’t be her. What was he thinking?
Xu Shiting didn’t think much of it and continued to fight with the dogs.
However, Leng Rongrong noticed that Xu Rourou had helped Xu Shiting several times.
Twenty minutes passed quickly, and Xu Shiting’s battle with the hungry dogs was very exciting. With Xu Rourou’s help, Xu Shiting managed to avoid a few major injuries, so he only had some minor injuries on his body.
Once the time was up, Xu Shiting was released.
When he came out, Xu Rourou went up to him and handed him a drink and a towel.
