Chapter 348 - 348: Lounge
Shen Xi’s gaze returned to the big screen. On the screen, she saw someone whisper something into the black-clothed youngster’s ear, and then the young man was escorted away.
Zhao Yuan returned resentfully and pouted, “The young master of this rich family is so noble that he doesn’t even show courtesy to others.”
This was something that Shen Xi found strange as well. It was a birthday banquet, but the main character had yet to appear. The highly anticipated Young Master Guan had not even taken off his mask, not showing any respect to those present.
This birthday banquet was really strange, making people scratch their heads.
On the other side, Jiang Xue saw Young Master Guan leaving and also left hastily. Then she went to look for the attendant she had bribed.
The attendant looked at Jiang Xue’s sneaky look and smiled. “Young Master will be resting in the lounge at the back.”
Jiang Xue thanked the attendant and hurried over.
“How many is it?” A voice came from the attendant’s headset.
The attendant said impatiently, “It’s already the ninth one. What do you think all these young ladies are doing here? Did they really think that Young Master would take the bait and they would become the wife of the Guan family’s heir?
Idiots!”
A chuckle came from the other side of the headset. “Be a good attendant and be serious. What if there’s a real killer mixed in?”
The attendant sighed helplessly and looked around.
Jiang Xue, who had received directions, went to the door of the lounge excitedly. After taking a deep breath, she crashed into the door of the lounge as if she had accidentally fallen in.
The young man inside looked at Jiang Xue, who had fallen in, and chuckled from behind the mask.
Jiang Xue was like a lost girl who had accidentally entered the wrong place. She first pretended to look at her injured arm, reddened from the fall, and blew on it in a childish and cute way.
Then, as if she suddenly realized that there was someone in the room, she looked up with pinkish eyes. When she saw the masked youngster sitting not far away, Jiang Xue cried out and retreated in horror.
Her pitiful appearance really shocked the people in the dark. They silently praised her for her good acting. This one’s acting was much better than the previous eight.
“You are…Young Master Guan?” Jiang Xue’s pink lips parted slightly as she asked in a delicate voice. She looked at the masked youngster, her little rounded eyes glistening.
The young man didn’t answer. He just glanced at Jiang Xue, who was sitting on the ground, with a playful look.
Jiang Xue followed the young man’s gaze and looked at herself. She exclaimed and quickly pulled down the dress that had rolled up to her thighs.
Jiang Xue felt that she was amazing when she looked at her innocent yet inadvertently sexy body.
Jiang Xue had heard about Young Master Guan. He was the devil incarnate of Beijing, an arrogant and overbearing man. At the same time, he was used to seeing flirtatious women and those who were submissive. That was why there were rumors that Young Master Guan never allowed women to get close to him, or else he would bear the consequences.
According to Jiang Xue’s assessment, this kind of man liked the pure, clean, and seductive type who were a little wild; the innocent type that would show their naughty side from time to time.
However, the young man’s words almost made Jiang Xue lose her cool.
“What’s wrong? Are you a prostitute delivering yourself here? Which club are you from? You’re so unfamiliar with the business?” Guan Bo put his hands on the sofa and taunted.
These girls dared to look for Young Master at this time. Which one of them weren’t there to offer themselves? The people in the dark laughed secretly. This Guan Bo was indeed sharp-tongued.
Jiang Xue hadn’t expected Young Master Guan to say it so bluntly. She was a little embarrassed, but Jiang Xue continued with the act. “Young Master Guan, how can you say such nonsense! I… I’m Jiang Xue, the cousin of the Xia family.
I won’t be polite if you continue to talk nonsense.”
When Jiang Xue said this, she deliberately pouted in a cute way.
Guan Bo watched Jiang Xue’s performance quietly. To be honest, none of the nine people that day could stand out.
However, since he was already here, he might as well put on a good show.
“You just arrived in Beijing?” Guan Bo asked as he rose from his seat.
Jiang Xue blinked her watery eyes and nodded innocently. “I just arrived.”
Since she had just arrived, it was possible that she was an assassin in disguise. Jiang Xue was more suspicious than the previous few. At least, the previous few were all born and raised in Beijing.
Guan Bo walked to Jiang Xue’s side, squatted down like a gentleman, and helped her up gently. “I’m sorry, I misunderstood earlier..”
