"No, I don't, how about you?"
"Me neither,"
"Let's go to the other side,"

Xianyu, who was still glued to the man behind him, sighed. He felt the warm palm covering his lips and realized that he was not alone. He uses his elbow to make a forceful smack onto the man's stomach.
It worked, which made the man release him. Xianyu yanks away and gazes at him. "Who are you?" he questioned.
The man grunts with his lowered head. "You got me there," he mumbled.
Xianyu frowned. "Are you mocking me? Who are you and why did you save me?" He scanned him from head to toe. "You're not even a lady!" he blurted out.
