11:25 PM.
Binhai City, Haiwang Small Street.
In a certain dim alley, a black-haired girl wearing a school uniform was being cornered by a man dressed like a thug.
The man had a fierce, menacing look on his face; he clearly was not someone with good intentions.
“What… what are you doing?” the black-haired girl asked, her voice trembling as she shielded her chest with both hands.
“Jie jie jie!” The thug let out several cold laughs, his eyes filled with desire. His words became greasy and lewd. “Little sister, don’t be afraid! As long as you have some fun with your big brother, I definitely won’t treat you poorly.” He stuck out his tongue to lick his lips, staring at the girl’s delicate, rosy lips with a lecherous face.
His appearance was utterly revolting.
The black-haired girl bit her lower lip, staring at the leader of the thugs with a stubborn expression.
‘I… I won’t go with you.’
“That’s not up to you.” The thug had a lewd grin on his face. His treacherous smile was enough to make anyone shudder.
“Don’t come any closer! If you come closer, I’ll scream for help!” The black-haired girl clenched the hem of her clothes, her eyes filled with terror.
“Go ahead and scream! Even if you scream until your throat is raw, no one is coming to save you!” The thug seemed to enjoy the despair of others, laughing wildly.
“Help! Help!!”
“Pretty Girl Guardian, save me!!”
Seeing that the thug remained unmoved, the black-haired girl hurriedly strained her voice and began to shout.
“Jie jie jie!”
“You little brat, it’s useless. There’s no such thing as a Pretty Girl Guardian in this world. Just give in to me, jie jie jie!!” The thug approached the girl step by step. Terrified, she backed away until she hit the wall behind her.
The thug reached out, intending to tear at her clothes.
However, when his fingertips were only a palm’s width away from the fabric, he came to an abrupt halt.
The thug turned around, but there was still no movement in the surroundings. At the entrance of the dark alleyway, the expected ray of hope did not come charging in.
A few minutes later.
The two were sitting on portable stools. Each held a bottle of mineral water, gulping it down greedily.
“Anyway, why did you write such retarded lines? And ‘jie jie jie’—how many Soul Hall Elders do you eat for breakfast?” Xu Yinsheng complained.
“Even the scripts I could write with my toes would be better than yours.”
“A mountain doesn’t need to be high to be famous if a celestial lives there; lines don’t need to be good as long as they get popular.” The thug—or rather, Chen Chenyi—took a large gulp of cold water.
“I don’t know if they’re working, but this is already the second time, and the Pretty Girl Guardian you keep talking about hasn’t shown up. You were just begging me to play along with you one more time.”
“To be honest, I didn’t even see you this serious when you were gambling on stones.”
“Is it not realistic enough?”
Chen Chenyi’s gaze lingered on Xu Yinsheng’s pristine school uniform for a few seconds, his brow furrowing slightly.
“Maybe if we…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the Anti-Wolf Spray was pressed against his forehead. Xu Yinsheng looked at him as if he were an idiot, her expression seemingly saying: ‘Son, put away those thoughts you shouldn’t be having.’
Chen Chenyi coughed several times to hide his embarrassment.
“Brother Xu, don’t misunderstand. I only have the revolutionary friendship of comrades toward you. Besides, you’re not my type. And now, I’ve found my purpose in life—my goddess! That is my true pursuit!!”
After all that explaining, Xu Yinsheng became even more wary!
She stood up, took several steps back, and held the Anti-Wolf Spray, looking at Chen Chenyi with a guarded expression.
The last “good brother” who had put his arm around her shoulder and drank with her had already explored deep inside her body!!
Moreover, if this kid found out she was the “Pretty Girl Guardian” who had already become an urban legend, who knew if he would turn into another Zhao Yicheng?
There were already enough scumbags in the world. How was she supposed to live if there was one more?!
“I’m done acting. It’s already past midnight. I’m going back to get some sleep!!” Xu Yinsheng waved the Anti-Wolf Spray in her hand and turned to walk out.
“Wait! Brother Xu, don’t go! Act with me one more time, just one more time!!” Seeing this, Chen Chenyi didn’t care about anything else. He lunged forward and firmly hugged Xu Yinsheng’s leg, refusing to let her go!
“I’m begging you, just one more time will do.”
“The goddess will definitely come. She must still be fighting other evils right now. A Pretty Girl Guardian like her, who can’t stand even a grain of sand in her eye, will definitely rush over as long as she hears someone calling for help.”
“I’m begging you, help me act one more time. The last time!” Chen Chenyi pleaded bitterly.
Looking down at the large “pendant” on her leg, Xu Yinsheng couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
‘Could it be that the Magical Girl form has a hidden charm attribute?’
‘Or is Chen Chenyi a natural-born Love-Brain Constitution? It’s just that his obsession used to be on stone gambling, and now it has finally shifted to women.’
However, while she was lost in thought, a delicate shout suddenly came from a distance.
“You thug over there, stop right now!!”
Following the voice, a dazzling light entered the alleyway that was dim year-round. The light grew larger and larger before their eyes, like the first beam of light piercing through the dark night.
A blue electric scooter sped through the dark alley at lightning speed, stopping abruptly in front of the two struggling figures. Then, a… Pretty Girl Guardian stepped off?
That’s right, a Pretty Girl Guardian.
White silk stockings, tall boots, long blonde hair, and a round, fair face. She looked exactly like the Pretty Girl Guardian from the anime, as if an anime character had walked into reality!
But under Xu Yinsheng’s magical girl detection ability, she discovered that the other party was just an ordinary person—an ordinary person cosplaying as a Pretty Girl Guardian.
“Let go of that student and accept the judgment of the moon… Huh?” The girl cosplaying as the Pretty Girl Guardian—let’s call her the Pretty Girl Guardian for now—stopped halfway through her catchphrase. She saw clearly that the one hugging Xu Yinsheng’s leg on the ground was a thug with a pleading look on his face.
She couldn’t help but freeze, momentarily unable to tell who the victim was.
“Goddess!”
Seeing the Pretty Girl Guardian, Chen Chenyi’s eyes lit up. He quickly let go of Xu Yinsheng and lunged toward the girl.
“I knew you would come! An Arbitrator of the Moon like you would definitely never tolerate any evil!!”
Chen Chenyi’s fanatical expression made it seem like he had completely immersed himself in the role. Furthermore, in Chen Chenyi’s mind, the Pretty Girl Guardian should be as holy as an angel and possess an extremely strong sense of justice.
Looking at the thug-like man lunging at her with a fanatical expression, the Pretty Girl Guardian took a step back, appearing somewhat nervous. “Don’t come any closer, or I will judge you on behalf of the moon.”
“What did you say…”
In the next moment, the dark muzzle of a gun was pointed directly at Chen Chenyi’s forehead.
“Calm down, calm down! I’m not a bad person, I’m just your admirer.” Cold sweat broke out on Chen Chenyi’s forehead, and a strained smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
“Old Xu, help me explain.” He shouted toward the side.
At this moment, Chen Chenyi was truly terrified. Sure enough, in a life-or-death crisis, compared to his goddess, his own life was more important.
Ultimately, it was only after Xu Yinsheng stepped in to explain that the Pretty Girl Guardian lowered the gun. Even so, she stared at Chen Chenyi warily as she backed onto her electric scooter step by step.
Watching the silhouette of the other party riding away on the scooter, Xu Yinsheng rubbed her chin and muttered in a low voice only she could hear, “Is this a case of the real deal meeting a fake?”
“Why does it feel… off?” Chen Chenyi scratched his head, voicing his doubt.
He looked at Xu Yinsheng, who was still in her school uniform.
“Old Xu, I don’t think that was it. How about we…”
“Get lost!”
Xu Yinsheng kicked him, picked up the mineral water from the ground, and headed out of the alley.
“If you want to act, do it yourself. I’m done. I’m going home to sleep!!”
“Wait! Brother Xu, Sister Xu! Help me again…” Chen Chenyi hurried to catch up.
But no matter how much he blocked her or pleaded, nothing could stop Xu Yinsheng’s heart from wanting to go home and sleep.
Shortly after the two left, a figure stepped out from a corner of the dim alley.
Zhao Yicheng gazed in the direction Xu Yinsheng had left and muttered to himself, “When did Little Yin start liking cosplay?”
