Hearing the name Huaxia, Kawashima Miki, for some reason, grew even more excited.
“Huaxia? You’re actually from Huaxia? Is it fun there? Does everyone have a panda?”
After some conversation, Xu Fei learned that, thanks to the internet, Miki had always been fascinated by this ancient country across the sea, eager to visit.
Especially during her high school years, she’d had a great chance to become an exchange student to Huaxia.
But her father, Kawashima Yosuke, firmly rejected it, citing safety concerns.
This made Miki deeply resent her father, who had always been strict, rarely showing her a smile and heavily controlling every aspect of her life.
Yosuke always used her safety as an excuse, which Miki found dissatisfying, believing it was just a pretext.
As she grew up, Miki longed for a hero to appear in her life.
This hero had to be powerful, at least stronger than her father, to have enough strength to save her.
Since her father kept saying her safety couldn’t be guaranteed, Miki thought that if she could find such a remarkable man, she could surely break free from her father’s control!
This was a key reason why she later became known as the “iceberg beauty”.
No matter how outstanding a man seemed in the eyes of ordinary people, when they tried all sorts of ways to approach her, Miki found their attempts childish.
Gradually, no one dared to bother her, earning her the title of iceberg beauty.
“Uh… you’ve got a lot of questions. How about we go somewhere else, and I’ll answer them one by one?”
Hearing Xu Fei’s suggestion, Miki was delighted, nodding immediately, “Of course! Let’s go now!”
So Miki turned to leave with Xu Fei, but at that moment, a black van arrived belatedly.
As soon as it stopped, the door slid open, and about a dozen black-clad men rushed out.
Seeing them, Miki wasn’t afraid but looked cold, recognising the Kawashima family crest on their chests.
“Sorry, Young Miss, we’re late, please forgive us!”
After saying this, the leader even reached out, intending to grab Xu Fei.
“Young Miss, please stay away from this stranger, we don’t know his details, your safety can’t be guaranteed!”
If he hadn’t said that, it might’ve been fine, but those words only made Miki angrier.
She snorted coldly, “Stay away from him? With your turtle-like speed, if it weren’t for him, I’d have been taken by the Qiushan family already. He’s my saviour, and this is how you treat him?”
Seeing Miki’s anger, the man didn’t know what to say, standing there awkwardly.
“Speechless, huh? If you don’t want me to tell my father about this, you lot will stand here as punishment until tomorrow morning!”
