Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

Qin Han put down his chopsticks and met Cheng Ying's gaze: "Miss Cheng, I've heard of 'beauty is food for the eyes,' but I've never heard of 'male beauty is food for the eyes.' If you keep staring at me like that, I'll get a little embarrassed."

"Pfft!"

Xiao Yu and Xiao Hong, who were serving on both sides, couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Cheng Ying's face flushed red again, feeling her cheeks burning hot. "You...you..."

You talked for a long time but couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

From childhood to adulthood, Cheng Ying had only been teased by the mischievous Yang Guo when she was young. Since growing up, she had never been teased by any man her age with such straightforward and explicit words.

She felt both ashamed and embarrassed. This man was just too... too awful!

Looking at Cheng Ying's pretty face, which was both embarrassed and annoyed, Qin Han found it quite amusing to tease this elegant and quiet young woman. "Miss Cheng," he asked casually, "may I ask how old you are this year?"

The question turned out rather abruptly, and Cheng Ying didn't react for a moment, blurting out instinctively, "Eighteen."

He regretted it as soon as the words left his mouth. How could he have answered this lecherous man's question so easily?!

Isn't this just giving him more topics to tease her about?

Sure enough, when Cheng Ying saw Qin Han reveal that wicked smile that made her grit her teeth in hatred, her pretty face flushed with embarrassment, and she glared at Qin Han with her watery almond eyes.

Feeling annoyed, I wondered how I could have thought this person wasn't a bad person.

Now it seems that he was clearly a smooth-talking lecher who bullied women!

Ignoring Cheng Ying's huffy glare, Qin Han continued with a smile in his previous tone, "Eighteen already? Such a beautiful age. So… does Miss Cheng have someone she likes?"

The question wasn't entirely meant as a joke; Qin Han genuinely wanted to use it to determine where the story was at. If Cheng Ying had already met Yang Guo and secretly fallen for him, then the next steps might need to be adjusted accordingly.

This time, however, Cheng Ying had learned her lesson. She just pursed her lips and remained silent, glaring angrily at Qin Han, her expression saying, "I won't say another word to you, you bad person!"

Seeing her fiercely guarded and pretty appearance, Qin Han suppressed his laughter, deliberately put on a disappointed and heartbroken expression, and sighed softly.

"Alas..." Shaking his head, his tone filled with regret and sorrow, "Indeed, a beauty as elegant and graceful as Miss Cheng must already have someone she loves in her heart. I, Qin Han, have come too late! How tragic, how lamentable! It truly breaks my heart and brings tears to my eyes!"

As she spoke, she exaggeratedly wiped away non-existent tears with the back of her hand, a funny gesture that Cheng Ying couldn't help but laugh at.

"Pfft...!" She couldn't help but let out a soft laugh.

Cheng Ying was still angry and determined to ignore this hateful man, but when she saw his funny appearance and heard his exaggerated words, she couldn't help but laugh.

That smile seemed to brighten the whole room, and even Xiaoyu and Xiaohong, who were standing next to her, were a little stunned. It was the first time the two maids had ever seen Miss Cheng smile.

Cheng Ying immediately realized that she had actually been amused by this rascal. She stopped laughing, her pretty face hardening again. "You... really..." she said, a mix of helplessness and amusement in her voice. "What nonsense are you spouting? Why... why is it pathetic that I have someone I like?"

Her tone softened unconsciously, and she no longer ignored Qin Han as before.

Qin Han dropped his playful expression, first picking up a piece of meat, chewing and swallowing it, then saying in a matter-of-fact manner, "Isn't this a very simple principle?"

After a pause, looking at Cheng Ying's "I'm just watching your performance" expression, Qin Han chuckled and continued, "Think about it, a beautiful cabbage like you, Miss Cheng, if you were to be eaten by some ungrateful pig, wouldn't that be a tragedy and a pity for someone like me who appreciates the beauty of cabbages?"

"Huh? What white...cabbage..."

Cheng Ying was stunned. What cabbage? What pig?

It quickly dawned on me that this man... he actually compared himself to a cabbage!

This is outrageous!

In all her life, Cheng Ying had never heard such a... such a vulgar metaphor.

Her small fists clenched, her pretty face flushed red. Because she was not good with words and had a reserved and sensible personality, she pointed at Qin Han for a long time but could not utter a complete sentence.

"You're the cabbage! You're the…!" In her haste, she blurted out a couple of indiscriminate retorts.

But as soon as the words left my mouth, I realized something was wrong.

Sure enough, Qin Han seized on the loophole in Cheng Ying's words, a smug look spreading across his face: "Oh? I'm a cabbage? Then..."

He deliberately drew out his words, his gaze fixed on Cheng Ying, whose face was still flushed: "Well... if you're that pig who's after the cabbage, then... I actually wouldn't mind."

After saying that, she even acted shy...

Xiaoyu and Xiaohong, standing nearby, covered their mouths and shrugged, clearly amused by the two bickering, but forced to suppress their laughter due to their status.

That jerk!

That scoundrel!

Not only did he compare himself to cabbage, but he also got himself into a mess by comparing himself to a pig?!

Wouldn't that mean I'm... wouldn't that mean I'm admitting that I want to "steal" this "cabbage" (a metaphor for taking advantage of someone)?!

Cheng Ying's delicate and pretty face flushed red from her cheeks to the roots of her neck, and even her small and exquisite earlobes turned an alluring pink.

She is a disciple of Huang Yaoshi, the "Eastern Heretic," and a successor of Peach Blossom Island. She is not the kind of sheltered young lady from a wealthy family who is weak and helpless!

A phrase popped into my head: A scholar can be killed, but not humiliated!

Overwhelmed with shame and indignation, Cheng Ying disregarded the difference in their strength and was determined to teach this lecherous scoundrel a lesson today!

"call out!"

He immediately drew out the jade flute he always carried from his waist.

This jade flute can not only be used to play music, but it is also a powerful weapon. It was made by Huang Yaoshi himself for Cheng Ying.

He gripped the jade flute and aimed it at Qin Han's head, wanting to give him a good whack on the head...

However, although Cheng Ying moved quickly, Qin Han moved even faster!

Just a second before the jade flute was about to strike his head, Qin Han's right hand shot out with incredible speed.

Cheng Ying felt a blur before her eyes and a numbness in her wrist. The next second, her precious jade flute had fallen into the other person's hands.

The whole process was so fast that Cheng Ying didn't even see how Qin Han made his move.
