Huo Yanyan was more soft-hearted than Mo Xue’er, so she couldn’t make up her mind. She went back upstairs with the bottle Mo Xue’er gave her and hid it inside her makeup bag.
That was a place Shen Mingxi wouldn’t look or pay attention to.
– Midnight, inside a bar in C City –
Three men walked in and immediately caught the attention of everyone inside.
The man leading the group was in a weird outfit. It wasn’t raining outside, but he was wearing a black cloak and a hat, and no one could see his face clearly. The two men behind him weren’t wearing hats; just a white cloak each – they had blond hair and emerald-colored eyes.
Once the man leading the way came in, he walked up to the bar and took off his black hat.
Loud shrieks erupted from all over…
He was an extremely handsome foreigner. He wasn’t a young man, but his features were incredibly delicate, and his eyes were so dark and deep that just one look would leave anyone mesmerized.
C City was home to a lot of foreigners, but this was the first time anyone’s seen someone so handsome.
“Sir, what would you like to drink?” a waiter asked in fluent English.
“Water,” the man answered in Chinese.
Upon hearing such fluent Chinese, the waiter froze for a second before answering, “Right away, Sir.”
Already, women of all sorts were crowding towards the man to hit on him. Those who didn’t know how to speak English would gesture at him while others showed off their awkward English.
However, the man refused them all. He seemed to be… disinterested in women.
Soon, a young woman walked up to him… she had long flowing hair and was wearing a tight black dress. She wasn’t the prettiest woman in the bar, but her demeanor was attention-grabbing.
One of the men in white leaned in and whispered to the man in black, “Sir, she’s here.”
The man nodded silently and took a small sip of the water.
The woman sat down in a VIP booth as soon as she walked in.
“Xiang Xin, you’re late, you need to drink!” A girl laughed.
“Don’t start, my dad’s been head over heels for Mo Xue’er, he even gave her the pink diamond he bought at that auction. I just came from an argument with him.” The woman picked up a bottle of beer and took a large swig.
Xiang Xin was Mr. Xiang’s youngest daughter, born by his fourth wife. She was just in her early twenties.
She used to be Mr. Xiang’s favorite daughter, but this all changed after Mo Xue’er moved in. Mo Xue’er’s been in the entertainment for so many years that she knew how to make people like her.
Mr. Xiang had been spoiling her to death and gave her anything she wanted, and that caused distress in the Xiang Family. Xiang Xin’s mother always had a hidden agenda and Mo Xue’er’s presence was causing a debacle.
“Forget about it. That b*tch is just your dad’s pet, why are you being so sensitive? Your dad loves you, he’ll leave you with everything he has, don’t worry…”
Her friends continued to console her until one of the girls said, “Xin-Xin, are you interested in the hottie over there?”
“Where?” Xiang Xin asked.
“The one by the bar…” The girl pointed, and Xiang Xin peered over.
“The foreigner?”
