Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Hua Qingcheng saw Tan Feiyu approaching proactively to inquire, and hurriedly put on a pitiful look to plead for help from Tan Feiyu: "This gentleman, although I know this person, we are just ordinary friends. Yet today he suddenly wants me to be his woman. I refused, and now he's trying to force himself on me. Please, sir, help me!"

Hua Qingcheng looked as if she might burst into tears, appearing very pitiful. Her delicate face, as small as a palm, showed light sorrow, her brows were furrowed, and her eyes glistened with tears, making her especially able to evoke a man's sympathy. Although Tan Feiyu was still young, he had developed the habit of grown men who liked to cherish the weak.

However, before Tan Feiyu could speak, a young man among those who had previously gathered around Hua Qingcheng and Lu Tianyi to jeer sneered and suddenly said loudly, "Hua Qingcheng, you speak of being just ordinary friends so lightly. But does an ordinary friend help solve all your problems? Do ordinary friends buy you all kinds of expensive things whenever you ask? Have you spent tens of thousands of gold coins from an ordinary friend over two years?"

The young man's string of sarcastic questions left Tan Feiyu, who had initially felt some sympathy for Hua Qingcheng, dumbfounded. This girl looked as if she was being victimized as if that young man had bullied her, but in reality, she had taken tens of thousands of gold coins! This doesn't sound right.

Hua Qingcheng's eyes immediately reddened from the young man's words, and with a hurt expression, she looked at Lu Tianyi and that young man, saying in a tearful tone, "I didn't take Brother Tianyi's money for free. I said I would work to pay it back, so why must you force me?"

The young man snorted and replied, "You, pay back? How much silver coins can you earn in a month working outside as a martial arts apprentice? It's one gold coin for a year's earnings; when will you ever be able to pay Brother Lu back?"

When the young man finished, another young man beside him looked disdainfully at Hua Qingcheng and added, "Brother Lu spent money on you because he likes you, because he wants to settle you down, to treat your mother's illness, and buy you everything you like. It's because he treats you as family, treats your mother as his own. Also, Brother Lu did all this under the impression that you agreed to try dating him."

"Exactly, Hua Qingcheng, why pretend to be pure and innocent? Don't play dumb. On one side, you act ambiguous with Brother Lu, and on the other, you call us ordinary friends. If we're just ordinary friends, then don't take Brother Lu's money. After taking it and not being able to pay back, how dare you have the face to ask for help? Knowing Brother Lu would never force you, you deliberately scream for help to harm him. If Brother Lu wanted to use force, would he need to pamper you like an ancestor, to waste all this effort on you?" The younger young man, irritated by Hua Qingcheng's innocent look, spoke even more harshly.

One young man even said to Tan Feiyu, "This gentleman, don't be fooled by this woman's face. She's just a woman who swindles men for money. We were initially deceived by her looks too, tried to pursue her, and even spent money on her. Yet after taking the money, she acted self-righteously and refused our pursuits. If she truly cherishes herself, she wouldn't take money from all of us, only Brother Lu being so naive keeps spending money on her."

Now Hua Qingcheng truly cried. She was just a little girl, though she did those things, being exposed like this made her feel ashamed and sad. She couldn't help but look at Tan Feiyu, who had initially wanted to help, with hopeful eyes.

Tan Feiyu's mouth twitched; he had a straightforward and simple personality and indeed liked Hua Qingcheng's face earlier, but he wasn't a fool.

Even though tens of thousands of gold coins are not much to Tan Feiyu, not to mention he now had Spiritual Pearls shared by Tan Shuangshuang. Even without the pearls, he still had tens of thousands of gold coins as pocket money.

Tan Feiyu himself wasn't short of money, but that didn't mean he didn't understand how huge a sum tens of thousands of gold coins is to an ordinary person. Tan Feiyu was curious about how Hua Qingcheng managed to spend so many of someone else's gold coins.

If he himself didn't buy costly cultivation materials, it would take him years to spend tens of thousands of gold coins. Thinking this way, Tan Feiyu looked at Hua Qingcheng with a different expression, completely losing the previous tender feelings.

Hua Qingcheng was extremely sensitive to men's emotions. She noticed Tan Feiyu's scrutinizing gaze, and her body froze immediately. She unwillingly scanned the rest of the people who came along with Tan Feiyu, among whom Tan Shuangshuang was coldly watching while holding Fei Hu's head, and Liang Ziqian was indifferent without any expression.

As for the other younger generations of the Tan and Liang families, they were muttering together, showing no intention to help. Hua Qingcheng, with a bitter face, finally turned back to Lu Tianyi, pleading pitifully, "Brother Tianyi, please don't be like this. I will definitely pay you back; trust me."

Throughout, Lu Tianyi, who had been staring at Hua Qingcheng dourly, surveyed Hua Qingcheng with the eyes one uses for a stranger, and then coldly said, "Hua Qingcheng, have you made up your mind to never be my woman no matter what?"

Hua Qingcheng looked at Lu Tianyi with a wounded expression and said, "Brother Tianyi, please don't be like this. I really only see you as a friend. I will repay the gold coins I owe you. Please don't force me, alright?"

Lu Tianyi stared at Hua Qingcheng for a long time, then self-mockingly sneered, icily replying to Hua Qingcheng, "You don't need to repay those gold coins. When I spent money on you before, I had no intention for you to return it. Now consider me delusional. Let those coins be the price for learning about you. Hua Qingcheng, in the future when you are in trouble and need money, don't come to find me again. I, Lu Tianyi, will take it as if I never knew you!"

After finishing, Lu Tianyi beckoned the few young men surrounding him talking on his behalf as well as his guards, and turned to leave decisively without hesitation.

But Hua Qingcheng looked dumbfounded at Lu Tianyi's retreating figure, standing there stupefied for quite a while before exclaiming in a hurt voice, "Brother Tianyi, how can you do this? I always considered you a friend. How can you treat me this way just because I refuse to be your woman!"

Around them, the spectators from the Tan and Liang families' younger generation looked at Hua Qingcheng with eyes of scorn. She had just cried for help claiming friendship?

To be honest, had they impulsively drawn swords upon hearing her cry, perhaps that Brother Tianyi she spoke of would have been killed by her! After all, the previous scene was too suggestive, resembling nothing less than villains forcefully seizing a virtuous beauty.

Now seeing Hua Qingcheng look betrayed, not only did no one sympathize with her, on the contrary, everyone felt: Is Hua Qingcheng an idiot? She thoughtlessly dug a pit for people yet dared claim friendship? Ridiculous, what audacity!
