Quick Transmigration: Help, The Male Leads Are All Broken!

Looking at Su Tang, she was running faster than a rabbit, but the hunter was even faster. Just a moment ago, Rong Jin was behind Rong Qi, and in the blink of an eye, he had appeared in front of Su Tang, blocking her completely.

Rong Jin was like someone waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree, watching Su Tang crash right into his arms.

"Why are you running?"

The little girl in his arms seemed to have reverted to her initial state, both intimidated and afraid of him. However, upon closer inspection, one could still discern some differences.

For example, her previous fear of him was purely because she was afraid of his revenge for what she had done in the past, but now her fear was of something else entirely.

This subtle change did not escape his notice.

Su Tang didn't dare to meet his gaze at all at this moment, taking a small step back to get out of his arms before whispering, "Of course I'd run after hitting someone."

Hearing this, Rong Jin chuckled, "You can be afraid?"

Su Tang took another step back, "Why wouldn't I be afraid?"

This fear seemed to be directed at Rong Jin.

He raised an eyebrow, knowing that she was finding it difficult to accept his identity for the time being, so he didn't press her too hard. But now it seemed that if he didn't show up, this little thing would have kept hiding.

"So, you plan to keep hiding." Rong Jin said, taking a step forward. His one step was equivalent to her two, and this step almost forced her back into his arms. "Taotao, where do you think you can hide?"

Su Tang's whole body stiffened, but Rong Jin reached out at this moment. When his hand touched hers, she suddenly flinched, but he was assertive and directly grasped her hand.

"Taotao, you're seventeen now, you need to learn to face reality. Come, tell me, who did you hit?"

The two were not far apart, and they didn't hide their words. At first glance, it seemed nothing, only that even the Overlord Flower would be afraid one day. Only the two of them understood the deeper meaning behind it.

Outsiders heard that they were uncle and niece and, although they felt that they seemed a little too close, they didn't think too much about it. Rong Qi, however, narrowed his eyes.

He was a man, and he was too clear about the base nature of men. The way that Little Ninth Lord looked at the little beauty was with a predatory gaze.

"Miss Qin, I haven't been back to the capital for a long time. I wonder who that young master is?"

Qin Qingyue was also stunned when she looked at Rong Jin. It wasn't until Rong Qi spoke that she realized she had lost her composure, but soon, she discovered that she wasn't the only one who had lost her composure, and no one had noticed her lapse, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

"I heard he's the nephew of the Marquis of Zhongyi, the son of Lord Shen Ling. He's been recuperating for the past few years and has only recently recovered."

"Shen Ling…" Rong Qi repeated the name, suddenly narrowing his eyes. "Is that the Lord Shen Ling who was assassinated along with His Highness the Crown Prince a few years ago?"

Qin Qingyue, "Yes, it is said that Ninth Master Shen's injuries were sustained at that time, but I'm not a member of the Shen family, so I don't know much."

Rong Jin's appearance immediately drew most of the attention.

Li Lian was now holding Wen Ran's hand, extremely excited. "Heavens, Taotao is not being fair! She didn't even tell us that her Ninth Uncle is so good-looking! If I had known Ninth Uncle was so good-looking, who would want the Number One Scholar!"

Wen Ran thought of how this Ninth Master had cut off people's tongues at the slightest disagreement, and guessed that this man was not as amiable as he appeared on the surface.

"Wake up. Let me give you some advice: Little Ninth Uncle can only be admired from afar."

Li Lian didn't like hearing that. "Why?" she said, her almond-shaped eyes turning. "Could it be that you've taken a fancy to him too?"

Wen Ran couldn't help but reach out and poke her forehead. "Do you remember my Jia Yuan Kuo? It was Shen Ninth Master who made the move. Moreover…" She looked around and, seeing that everyone's attention was drawn over, she stood on tiptoe and whispered in her ear, "Even the Prime Minister calls him Ninth Master and doesn't dare to avenge his son."

Li Lian's senses gradually returned. She blinked and asked, "At that time, Prime Minister Jia hadn't fallen from grace yet?"

Wen Ran nodded. "He was even at the height of his power. So, I always feel that Ninth Master is not simple."

With Wen Ran's reminder, looking at Rong Jin again, she no longer had the previous fervor, but instead felt some sympathy for Su Tang. "Then isn't Taotao very miserable?"

Wen Ran suddenly thought of something and chuckled. "More than that."

She was like a mouse seeing a cat, with the word 'cowardly' written all over her.

Su Tang couldn't hide, so she could only lower her head, her whole person listless, completely lacking the vitality she had before, making people feel a little sorry and unable to bear it.

The little girl had a distinct personality. Rong Jin, being a man himself, naturally knew how many people were staring at her. Among them, especially Rong Qi's gaze, there was a moment when he really wanted to dig his eyes out.

However, it wasn't time yet, so he would let him keep them for a few more days.

Rong Jin wasn't familiar with these young masters in the capital who spent their days indulging in romance. He had come to take the little girl home, and now that he had found her, he naturally wouldn't stay any longer.

"Taotao, did you have fun?"

He asked in a questioning tone, but after spending these days together, Su Tang really knew this guy too well!

"There's nothing fun. Although the plum blossoms are beautiful, there are always some tactless people who spoil the fun. Little Ninth Uncle, I want to go home."

Rong Jin curled his lips, very satisfied with this answer, but just as he was about to leave with her, Rong Qi suddenly stepped forward.

He raised an elegant smile. "I'm new here, and I feel an instant connection with Young Master Shen. I wonder if Young Master would be willing to do me the honor of having a drink or two with me?"

Rong Jin looked at him with a smile that was not a smile. Their eyes met, and a hint of killing intent flashed through them. "It would be my pleasure."

They said it was a pleasant drink, but in the end, they pulled Rong Jin into a duel. However, this was the Plum Garden, and they couldn't ride horses or shoot arrows, so in the end, they could only use chess.

Neither of them would give in on the chessboard, and the battle was fierce. As for Su Tang, she was actually pulling a few friends to build a snowman.

Shen Tao had an flamboyant personality. Originally, many noble girls were unwilling to get involved with her, fearing that it would affect their reputation, but now, many people had abandoned Qin Qingyue and rushed over.

"Miss Shen, let me help you bring some more snow over."

"Miss Shen, are you tired? Would you like to drink some tea?"

"Miss Shen…"

In the end, Su Tang was no longer the one building the snowman. She only needed to stand aside and give a little direction, and countless noble girls would flock to her.

In response, she couldn't help but sigh. Face-adorers really existed in both ancient and modern times.

Building a snowman was boring. Wherever she went, people followed her, waiting on her hand and foot. The difference from before was too great. In the end, she couldn't stand it anymore and could only run back to Rong Jin's side.

Rong Jin was playing chess, but his attention never strayed from her. Seeing her return, he couldn't help but ask with a smile, "Why aren't you playing anymore?"

Su Tang, "It's not fun. I'd rather stay with Little Ninth Uncle."

When she said this, she was listless. Rong Jin suddenly thought of something. Before, the little girl deliberately hid her talent, so could it be that her chess skills were also fake?

So, he deliberately made a wrong move.

Su Tang: !!!

Her peach blossom eyes widened suddenly, even Rong Qi on the opposite side noticed.

"What's wrong, Miss Shen?" Rong Qi asked.

Su Tang said with a wooden face, "Nothing."
