Chapter 279 - Two Lu Xiaoman

“””Ye Fan reached out to grab Lu Xiaoman’s hand, but Lu Xiaoman froze on the spot, remaining still until Ye Fan grasped her hand.

Suddenly, her brows shot up, and she forcefully yanked her hand away, scolding, “Pervert!””””

Ye Fan was taken aback, seeing Lu Xiaoman’s serious expression, he was instantly confused.

However, he soon laughed and said, “Haha, Sister Xiaoman, you’re really convincing, as if you have the potential to grab an Oscar statuette.”

Chuckling, he mischievously stretched out his hand to wrap it around Lu Xiaoman’s slender waist, thinking to himself: Aren’t you just joking when you scold me as a pervert?

If I don’t act a little “perverted,” wouldn’t that be a miscarriage of justice?

As he reached out, Lu Xiaoman clearly tried to dodge, but Ye Fan wasn’t about to let her escape.

Suddenly, his hand moved as fast as the wind, and he wrapped his arm around Lu Xiaoman’s slender waist, pulling her soft, fragrant, and delicate body into his embrace.

Just as Ye Fan was holding Lu Xiaoman’s beautiful figure in his arms, his heart suddenly skipped a beat; a strong sense of crisis arose, and he hurriedly let go of Lu Xiaoman and stepped back, but it was too late.

The next instant, he felt a tremendous force strike his chest, sending him flying several meters, blood spurting from his mouth.

Ah—

The women who were browsing clothes nearby screamed when they saw this sudden turn of events.

Their screams were loud, spreading throughout the entire floor, attracting many people who ran over to see what was happening.

After falling to the ground, Ye Fan quickly stood up like a carp leaping out of water, vigorously wiped the fresh blood from his mouth, his tiger eyes shot intimidating light, and he took a few steps toward “Lu Xiaoman,” demanding in a deep voice, “You are not Lu Xiaoman.

Who are you?!”

That last hit wasn’t very heavy, but because he hadn’t fully recovered from his previous injuries, he ended up vomiting blood this time.

“Lu Xiaoman” showed no intention of fleeing, her stunningly beautiful face lifted, her eyes equally emitting a cold light; she huffed angrily, “You dare to pretend to mistake someone else for me and take liberties with me!

If I don’t teach you a harsh lesson today, then my surname isn’t Mo!”

With that, she moved her feet into the Eight Trigram stance, dodging and moving obliquely, formed her hand into a palm, and aimed at Ye Fan’s vital points.

Ye Fan’s pupils shrank, and he couldn’t help exclaiming, “Eight Trigram Palm!”

As he shouted, he also dodged; his right hand clenched into a fist and he struck out with a broad, sweeping Chong Pao Fist.

Whoosh—Pop!

Ye Fan’s punch burst through the air, producing a sound like that of firecrackers.

“Lu Xiaoman” clearly hadn’t expected Ye Fan to be so formidable, she immediately changed her expression and dared not collide head-on, stepping in the Eight Trigram stance and smoothly gliding to attack Ye Fan from another angle.

Since Ye Fan had already recognized the opponent’s use of Eight Trigram Palm, he naturally predicted that her movements would be flexible and changing, like a dragon swimming.

Hence, without looking, he relied on his hearing and the touch of his skin to sense the motion of the air and predict “Lu Xiaoman’s” attack direction.

When “Lu Xiaoman” attacked from the left side of Ye Fan’s ribs, he didn’t turn his head, but instead threw a punch lightning-fast in that direction.

“Bang!”

The collision of fist and palm created a gust that blew the clothes hanging on the display wall all over the place.

“Lu Xiaoman” was clearly outmatched and, upon contact, she was forced back several paces.

After repelling “Lu Xiaoman,” Ye Fan immediately turned to face “Lu Xiaoman” head-on.

However, he did not continue to pursue the attack.

Seeing as they were in a public place, it was not appropriate to fight unfettered.

“Lu Xiaoman” also took into account Ye Fan’s expertise in ancient martial arts, so she didn’t continue to attack him at that moment.

Of course, they had moved so fast just now that the bystanders had barely seen that they had already exchanged blows.

“Who are you?” “Lu Xiaoman” stared at Ye Fan and asked.

Ye Fan also stared at “Lu Xiaoman” and demanded harshly, “Who on earth are you?

Why did you disguise yourself as my girlfriend and ambush me?”

From their brief clash just now, he had realized that this “Lu Xiaoman’s” cultivation in ancient martial arts was at the later stage of explicit strength.

Even with injuries on his body, “Lu Xiaoman” was no match for him.

“Ha ha ha,” “Lu Xiaoman” laughed with scornful disbelief and said, “Me, disguise as your girlfriend?

Then ambush you?

What a huge joke!

I have no grievances with you, why would I go to such lengths to ambush you?

On the other hand, how do we settle the score for your mistaking someone for another and taking liberties with me?

Don’t think that…”

As they spoke, many curious people had already gathered around upon hearing the commotion.

While “Lu Xiaoman” was still speaking, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened in shock, staring at something behind Ye Fan, her mouth agape.

“Ye Fan.” A soft voice with a hint of timidity called from behind him.

Ye Fan immediately turned his head and saw Lu Xiaoman, dressed in the beige autumn dress that he had picked out earlier, squeezing her way through the crowd of onlookers.

He quickly walked a few steps towards Lu Xiaoman, reaching out to grab her delicate white hand and pulling her over to his side.

“Ye Fan, that person…” Lu Xiaoman pointed at the “Lu Xiaoman” in the white dress, “Who is she?

Why does she look so much like me?”

“I don’t know who she is either,” Ye Fan said, turning his head to look at that “Lu Xiaoman” and then back at Lu Xiaoman beside him, immediately feeling that these two Lu Xiaomans were as if cast from the same mold.

Especially since these two Lu Xiaomans were dressed almost the same, one in a beige dress and one in a white dress, with similar styles and similar heights and builds.

“Could they be twins?” A bizarre speculation suddenly rose in Ye Fan’s mind.

At this moment, that “Lu Xiaoman” had gotten over her shock, took a few steps closer to Lu Xiaoman, and after staring at her for a while, she asked, “Who, who are you?”

“I’m Lu Xiaoman.” Lu Xiaoman also widened her beautiful eyes to examine that “Lu Xiaoman” and counter-questioned.

“And you?”

“My name is Mo Xiaoyan.” That “Lu Xiaoman” said, then suddenly burst into excitement.

“You must be my sister!”

With that, she reached out to grab Lu Xiaoman’s jade-like hand.

However, Ye Fan, concerned that Mo Xiaoyan might harm Lu Xiaoman, immediately pulled Lu Xiaoman behind him to protect her and warned Mo Xiaoyan, “What do you mean by getting touchy?

Don’t think just because you look like Lu Xiaoman, she is your sister.

Don’t just claim relatives recklessly!”

“You, why are you being like this?

I look exactly like my sister, how could that be fake?” Mo Xiaoyan glared angrily at Ye Fan.

Having been taken advantage of by Ye Fan, not only had her hand been touched, but her waist had also been embraced.

Even though she was a maiden who had always kept to herself and now understood that it was a misunderstanding, she still did not show Ye Fan any warmth.

Lu Xiaoman said, “Ye Fan, she looks very similar to me, and I feel a special closeness to her.

I think we should sit down and talk.”

“True.

Sister, let’s find a place to sit down and talk, and then you’ll understand,” Mo Xiaoyan said to Lu Xiaoman, her exceptionally beautiful face overflowing with surprise and affection.

Ye Fan nodded and said, “Alright, we should find a place to sit down and talk it through.”

Even if these two who looked alike had not a drop of blood relation, they should still get to know each other.
