The next morning, the girl woke up to the smell of pancakes and coffee, a carefree smile making way to her lips. "Not the kind of hangover breakfast others have, but I am still going to need that aspirin." "I know.", Lu Wei smiled, handing over her a glass of water as she sat up on the bed, "So... Rong Quiang, huh?" "Yeah.", the girl pressed her lips, massaging her forehead. "What happened, Kid? Why did he show up all of a sudden?", the man asked as he looked at the girl swallowing down the…

"It's alright. I won't hurt your fiance.", Zhi Xi stood up, placing his gin on the bar counter, he approached the two women. "I am bored torturing that man already. It's no pleasure playing with drunkards, you see.", he shrugged, waving at the manager, "Done for tonight. The show's over. Please get the party back on track. "We invested in 'Blush' not for it to be doomed like this. Let people have fun." The manager bowed down obediently and called for some of the club employees. In a minute or two, the…

Meanwhile, Lu Wei unbuttoned his suit before grabbing a stool for himself beside his sister. He was just going to take care of her while Zhi Xi tortured the men, one by one. As he caressed her head affectionately, the girl closed her eyes and rested her head against his shoulder. The man took a deep breath, allowing her to hold onto his left hand, so she could feel secure and fall asleep peacefully. By this time, Zhi Xi had stood up and sat beside them. A few seconds later, a person from the club staff…

The girl furrowed her brows and turned around hastily. He was taller than her, evidently in his early fifties. One could tell he was a regular. Drunk. Bully. Typical broker. Something like that. Few men were standing behind him, surrounding her at the same time. His partners, she thought. The girl sighed. It wasn't going to be easy dealing with them, provided how drunk she was. "I don't want anything to do with you, Mr.", the girl stared at the man, removing his hand from her waist, "Leave." She knew…

"Is that my sister with my love rival?", Rong Xinghe asked later. She had already downed three shots of vodka by then. Although her alcohol tolerance was pretty high, she had started to feel a tad bit dizzy. She blamed it on the party-ish vibes surrounding her. And the fact that she was really tired. From all the work she had dealt with before showing up at this party. "Hey, hey! Go easy on the drinks.", Xi Wei pinched the space between her brows before he snatched the flute of champagne from the girl,…

Xi Wei wasn't Xi Yuan. Or Xi Fang. He was the youngest son of the Xi family. He wasn't someone who thought of propriety, or of sophistication. He never assorted silence as an option to deal with a situation such as these. He spoke. Harshly. But even so, the young man rarely used abusive language. So when he snapped at Zhao Chenhua like that, almost everyone around him felt a chill run down their spine. Even Huang Biu was slightly taken aback by the man's rage. She diverted her gaze from the lounge…

'Hey. Um... Is that the infamous Huang Biu over there?", Rong Xiao asked Xi Wei as she gulped down her glass of bourbon. "Yeah. She is. Why? What's going on in that little head of yours?", the man smiled, caressing the girl's hair. "I don't know. I might be thinking of kicking some ass right now.", the girl smiled back smugly. "I wouldn't stop you, you know?", the man laughed, pulling the girl in a deep passionate kiss, "By the way, has Sister-in-law talked to you about us?" "No. Wait. She…

"Sister-in-law!", the girl had just hung up when Xi Wei's hurried footsteps approached her from behind. The girl turned around and smiled at the man, taking the medicines from his hands. "Could you drive me to the Lu Family Mansion, Sweetie?", the girl asked softly. "Of course.", the man nodded his head enthusiastically, as he opened the door to the passenger seat for her. The girl waited for the car to reach the main road before she spoke up, "Earlier, Yuan wasn't too strict with you, was…

Rong Xinghe was so shocked by the sudden jolt that her grip around the phone tightened. Her arms rammed into the dashboard, and the pain was instant excruciating. And intense. The girl squeezed her eyes shut and let out a muffled groan, cupping her mouth with the palm of her other hand. "Pass the phone to Wei, Xinghe.", Xi Yuan commanded through the other end. He had pretty much figured out the situation by now. Rong Xinghe brought the phone to her ear and sighed. "No one's hurt, Bub.", the girl…

Xi Yuan still remembered the day Elena had died. He was in coincidentally City M then. He had never seen Sun Cheng so distressed, so helpless before. He wasn't stable. Neither emotionally, nor mentally. Elena and he had a love marriage three years after they had met in Chicago. The two were crazy for each other. So when the girl left him, Sun Cheng was beyond traumatized. He wasn't in any state to deal with the hospital paperwork or the death rituals. At that time, Xi Yuan had managed Elena's cremation,…
