Cheng Xiran stood rooted to the spot, too afraid to move. Yet she still managed to shoot glances at Helian Duo, hoping to catch his attention. But that fellow seemed to be enjoying himself too much to care. With his eyebrows slightly raised, he looked cold and aloof.
Seeing this, the man completely disregarded Helian Duo's status. He put his hands on his hips, looking furious. "Helian Duo, do you think just because you're the Regent Prince you can do whatever you want and ignore others?"
Noticing the eager looks on the faces of the man's followers behind him, Cheng Xiran quickly grabbed his sleeve. With a sincere look on her face, she said, "Big brother, let it go. The prince has always been like this. I'm used to it. Anyway, he's the Regent Prince. He's someone we can't afford to provoke. Hurting a member of the royal family will lead to the execution of the entire family..."
She tried her best to scare them, making her words as harsh as possible. But to her surprise, the man showed no sign of fear. Instead, he looked haughty and his eyes were full of disdain.
If a fight broke out between the two sides because of her identity as a spy, she knew she couldn't bear the consequences. And by now, she had more or less guessed the origin of these people beside her. They were probably from the martial arts world.
She stole a glance at Helian Duo, who remained calm. She wanted to run to him but couldn't. So she could only stand there, feeling anxious.
Seeing her in such a state, the man felt even more sorry for her. "There are plenty of fish in the sea. Why do you have to be infatuated with Helian Duo? Just tell me what kind of man you like. I'll find them for you according to your requirements!"
Cheng Xiran was utterly embarrassed. In the distance, Helian Duo's thin lips curved slightly, and there was a hint of amusement in his eyes.
He wanted to see how Cheng Xiran would get out of this situation.
Cheng Xiran bit her lips lightly. After a while, the only thought that flashed through her mind was to run away. So without saying a word, she tried to slip away to the side. But of course, she was easily caught and dragged back.
She felt like a plaything. Helian Duo's expression was hard to read, and she didn't know what he was up to. She was starting to get impatient and was even thinking about revealing everything.
She took a deep breath and was about to speak when the man interrupted her. "I know you're worried about your prince, but I'm going to make you watch. I'm definitely going to teach him a lesson today!"
As he spoke, the man gave a signal to a few burly men beside him. They immediately rushed towards the outnumbered Helian Duo. Cheng Xiran couldn't help but let out a cry, and her heart tightened inexplicably. She was worried about him.
Helian Duo's face gradually turned cold, and his eyes became even more menacing as he looked at them.
The three or four men hesitated for a moment before resuming their attack.
"Don't worry. I'll definitely beat him into submission and make you..."
The man was making grand promises when he noticed Cheng Xiran's shocked expression. He followed her gaze and saw that Helian Duo had quickly knocked the three or four men to the ground. There were cries of pain all around.
Helian Duo stood there with his hands behind his back, looking as elegant as a celestial being, completely untouched by the chaos.
Cheng Xiran was really impressed by Helian Duo's coolness. His tall and slender figure, his swift and decisive punches and kicks - every move he made exuded boundless charm. Moreover, there were quite a few people gathered around, including women of all ages, all cheering and clapping for Helian Duo.
