Chapter 2352 - 2353: Unnecessary Trouble
Ye Xunhuan looked at Lian Xing with a bit of surprise. He never expected that Lian Xing would be so knowledgeable, instantly recognizing the expensive price of his clothes and explaining it in detail.
However, except for the shirt, which he got himself previously, the jacket, pants, and shoes were all prepared by Qiu Ruoxi.
Ye Xunhuan hadn’t paid much attention to it, but unexpectedly, he ended up showing off effortlessly today!
"Now do you still say you are not rich?"
"Good eye!" Ye Xunhuan did not deny it, frankly admitting it.
"So, are you going to buy me a drink or not?"
"I will!" Ye Xunhuan said lightly, "Otherwise, it would make me seem too stingy!"
In the next moment, Ye Xunhuan snapped his fingers, summoning the previous bunny girl over.
At this moment, the bunny girl was also in a somewhat dazed state, completely not expecting the other party to actually hook up with Lian Xing!
Wait, it wasn’t hooking up, it was Lian Xing who approached him on her own.
When the bunny girl arrived beside Ye Xunhuan, she asked nervously, "Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Get her a drink!" Ye Xunhuan glanced at Lian Xing and said unhurriedly.
Ye Xunhuan glanced at Lian Xing, "What will you drink?"
"Bloody Mary!"
Bloody Mary is a type of cocktail, but it’s because it looks like blood that it’s called Bloody Mary. It was once banned in Europe but has become popular in recent years.
"Just get her a Bloody Mary!"
The bunny girl then slowly left.
"You’re the second woman I’ve met who drinks Bloody Mary!"
Though Bloody Mary is a cocktail, not many order it, especially women.
"Oh, and who’s the first?" Lian Xing asked softly.
Ye Xunhuan didn’t answer Lian Xing but changed the subject, "I’m curious, with so many people here, why did you come to me?"
"Is it just because my clothes look flashy?"
"No!" Lian Xing said softly, "There are many wealthy people here. Although I don’t know your net worth, I’m sure I could find one or two people who could compare to you!"
"Then why?"
"From the moment I descended from the sky, I noticed you. You were the only one whose eyes were clear and free of impurities when you looked at me. And when I played the guzheng just now, you weren’t watching me," Lian Xing said softly, "You seemed lost in the music."
"I was just pretending to be cultured!"
"Whether it was an act or not, you piqued my curiosity," Lian Xing stated bluntly, "I consider myself quite attractive, with both looks and figure having a particular allure for men, but it seems my assets have no effect on you!"
"You could say I’ve seen so many beauties that I’ve built up some immunity!" Ye Xunhuan said calmly.
"I thought so too," Lian Xing replied with a smile, "But you’re unfamiliar to me; are you from out of town?"
"Yes!" Ye Xunhuan nodded, "From the capital city."
"Ah, from the imperial capital, a big shot!" Lian Xing said softly, "Here to visit?"
"Here to kill someone!" Ye Xunhuan said with a half-smile.
If it were an ordinary person hearing this, they’d surely be shocked, or become dazed and incredulous, but not Lian Xing. She remained calm and undisturbed!
"For you to come to kill, the target must not be a nobody, right?"
"A nobody isn’t worth my effort," Ye Xunhuan smiled and said, "Aren’t you afraid?"
"What’s there to fear? After all, you’re not here to kill me!"
"Sitting with someone about to become a murderer, aren’t you afraid?"
"People die every day in this world, and it takes skill to become a murderer," Lian Xing said softly, "I don’t think you’d let yourself carry the label of a murderer!"
"You’re different from other women!"
"Perhaps because I’ve been through a lot."
"Suddenly, I feel you resemble someone I’ve met!" Ye Xunhuan suddenly changed the topic.
"Really?" Lian Xing’s light smile deepened, "Does that mean we’re fated?"
"Don’t you think I’m trying to get close to you?"
"A woman’s intuition tells me you weren’t thinking of getting close to me at all," Lian Xing said bluntly, "But I, on the other hand, would love to get closer to you!"
"You’re quite honest!" Ye Xunhuan said with a smile.
Just then, the bunny girl came back with the drinks.
After placing the drinks down, the bunny girl left without lingering to disturb Ye Xunhuan and Lian Xing.
"What’s your name?"
"Ye Xunhuan!" he said straightforwardly.
"To give one’s life for a night of joy, an interesting name!" Lian Xing commented softly.
"Sounds like you’re trying to flirt with me?" Ye Xunhuan took a sip of his drink.
"I do mean that, but you might not give me the chance."
"Sorry, I’m already married. Otherwise, I would certainly give you a chance."
"Surprised to hear you’re married."
Even though she said she was surprised, Lian Xing’s face showed no trace of shock. She remained calm and composed, like a serene, ripple-less lake!
"Your wife must be quite beautiful, I assume?"
"I think she’s more beautiful than you," Ye Xunhuan stared at Lian Xing, "Of course, it might just be due to a lover’s bias!"
"Makes sense," Lian Xing nodded in agreement.
As Ye Xunhuan and Lian Xing sat there chatting and laughing, the atmosphere was very harmonious, filling many people’s hearts with envy, jealousy, and resentment. They looked at Ye Xunhuan with hostility.
Ye Xunhuan didn’t bother with this at all; who cares if they aren’t as handsome as me!
Just as Ye Xunhuan and Lian Xing were chatting happily, a deep, resonant voice suddenly echoed around them.
However, this resonant voice was filled with anger!
"Who is this reckless person daring to drink with my Lian Xing..."
Upon hearing this voice, Lian Xing’s face immediately showed an apologetic look. She looked at Ye Xunhuan a bit sheepishly, "Sorry, I might have brought you some unnecessary trouble!"
