Chapter 83: Chapter 83: The Goddess Descends to the Mortal World

"Zhang Tian, what are you doing?"

Xia Shuya, seeing Zhang Tian’s demeanor, subconsciously stepped in front of Su Mu.

This Zhang Tian was well-known in the dance troupe as Big Bull.

With his towering stature, his strength was as formidable as that of an ox.

"A pretty boy remains a pretty boy, hiding behind a woman. What kind of skill is that?"

Zhang Tian, not taking well to how Xia Shuya was protecting Su Mu, mocked with distaste.

Su Mu’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Did he really need Xia Shuya’s protection?

It was Xia Shuya who had jumped out on her own initiative, wasn’t it?

After pulling Xia Shuya slightly to the side, Su Mu took two steps forward.

Seeing Su Mu’s confident appearance, Zhang Tian was momentarily staggered.

Could it be that this "pretty boy" had a stronger aura than his own?

"You, what do you want to do?"

Unexpectedly, as Su Mu stepped forward, Zhang Tian’s momentum diminished significantly.

"Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that?"

Su Mu hooked the corner of his mouth, looking at the man before him with a smile that was not quite a smile.

A moment ago, wasn’t he all aggressive and blustering? Why had he wilted in just a short time?

"You, what is your relationship with Xia Shuya?"

Zhang Tian himself didn’t know why, but he felt somewhat intimidated by the man before him.

However, Zhang Tian had not forgotten the purpose of his visit.

Eventually, he mustered the courage and asked.

"She is my woman."

Su Mu didn’t really need to answer Zhang Tian’s question.

But since he was so persistently inquiring, Su Mu kindly provided an answer.

"Your woman?"

Zhang Tian was dissatisfied with Su Mu’s response.

What did he mean by "his woman"?

Shouldn’t it be something like a girlfriend or the like?

Zhang Tian always felt that Su Mu’s definition of his relationship with Xia Shuya was a bit odd.

"Zhang Tian, step aside, we’re leaving now."

Xia Shuya also knew that Su Mu’s saying "my woman" would give rise to many thoughts among the others.

Su Mu and Xia Shuya were both young, but the answer Su Mu gave to the others did not define them as a couple or anything of the sort.

My woman?

Many of Xia Shuya’s colleagues were someone else’s woman.

In the dance troupe, everyone subconsciously assumed that Xia Shuya was being kept by Su Mu.

Xia Shuya knew what Su Mu said was true.

Only because of saving face, Xia Shuya didn’t want to reveal her relationship with Su Mu in front of others.

Not daring to refute Su Mu’s words, Xia Shuya only wanted to leave as quickly as possible.

Su Mu, seeing that the man named Zhang Tian was just standing there dumbfounded, didn’t want to waste more time on these boring people.

With a step forward, Zhang Tian actually obediently made way.

Su Mu walked away directly.

The hand that Xia Shuya had wrapped around Su Mu’s arm never let go, holding on tightly as she followed Su Mu’s steps out of the practice room.

As for this dance troupe, Su Mu had no further interest in touring it.

Heading downstairs, Su Mu was ready to leave.

"Wait a minute."

Just as he was about to take out his car keys, Su Mu glanced over at the source of the voice.

That Zhang Tian had actually followed him?

Behind Zhang Tian was a large group of people who looked like they were there for the excitement.

It seemed the entire practice room had turned out.

Su Mu raised an eyebrow. Was this Zhang Tian never going to give up?

Actually, when Su Mu took Xia Shuya out of the practice room,

Zhang Tian was still stuck there in a daze.

Because of Su Mu’s words, Zhang Tian also understood that his goddess had descended to the mortal realm.

Originally, there was nothing between Zhang Tian and Xia Shuya; it was all just wishful thinking on Zhang Tian’s part.

It could even be said that Zhang Tian never uttered a single word of confession to Xia Shuya.

Zhang Tian naturally had no place to say anything to Su Mu anymore.

But Zhang Xinxin, who felt oppressed by Xia Shuya, did not think so.

"Zhang Tian, are you that much of a coward?"

"Just because someone said a word, you backed off just like that?"

"I think that guy doesn’t really care much about Xia Shuya."

"You just let your goddess be bullied by someone like that?"

Instigating trouble was something Zhang Xinxin was very good at.

Upon hearing Zhang Xinxin say this,

Zhang Tian also felt that Su Mu’s words "my woman" indeed seemed to belittle Xia Shuya.

On impulse, Zhang Tian felt his goddess had been wronged.

He rushed out of the training room, chasing after them.

"Zhang Tian, do you have something else?"

Impatience was clearly visible on Su Mu’s face.

Xia Shuya did not want to upset Su Mu, so she coldly faced Zhang Tian, who had stubbornly pursued and caught up with them.

"Xia Shuya, I just want to ask what this guy’s attitude towards you really is."

"Does he treat you like a girlfriend?"

Xia Shuya had never expected Zhang Tian to insist on asking the question she did not want to face in front of so many people from the dance troupe.

She glanced at the crowd behind her, hungry for drama, especially Zhang Xinxin, with his utterly sarcastic face, not bothering to conceal it at all.

Xia Shuya wished she could bite Zhang Tian.

This brainless guy, was he content only if he made her lose face?

Xia Shuya could not expect Su Mu to care even a little bit about her face,

to admit in front of so many people that she was his girlfriend.

Because she simply was not.

From the beginning, Su Mu had made this clear, hadn’t he?

"What’s that to you?"

Since Su Mu was planning to get his car keys, his hand remained in his pocket.

Seeing this, Zhang Tian took it as a clear sign of disrespect.

"Is Xia Shuya your girlfriend or not?"

Very persistent, Zhang Tian seemed determined to hear the answer he wanted straight from Su Mu’s mouth.

Interesting!

Su Mu suddenly curled his lips into a smile.

Such a stubborn person was indeed rare in today’s society.

"My goodness, the handsome guy is so good-looking even without smiling; with this smile, my heart is about to be stolen."

"I think your soul was stolen long ago, with that leering look on your face."

"Hmph, you’re just as infatuated yourself, do you even have the face to talk about me?"

"If Xia Shuya wasn’t here, I bet you would have already thrown yourself at the handsome guy."

...

The crowd that had come out to watch the excitement started to get restless at Su Mu’s smile.

But they spoke in voices low enough not to interfere with the main event unfolding before them.

"She is simply my woman,"

Since this "Big Bull" insisted on an answer, Su Mu kindly indulged him.

Su Mu did not think that saying so would embarrass Xia Shuya at all.

It was an understanding they had reached from the start.

If Xia Shuya couldn’t even withstand this,

Su Mu thought he might need to reconsider whether to continue this relationship or not.

Su Mu’s standard for keeping a woman was, foremost, that she should not cause him trouble.

Because of Su Mu’s words, Xia Shuya’s complexion changed.

But it only shifted slightly, and soon Xia Shuya regained her usual expression.

Gripping Su Mu’s arm a bit tighter, Xia Shuya silently signaled to Su Mu

that she was willing to be Su Mu’s woman.

Su Mu glanced at Xia Shuya; she was behaving obediently.

Su Mu indicated he would continue to "keep" her.
