Chapter 19: That Girl!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the waiter left, Huo Zexi took a sip of his wine with a smug expression on his face.
That girl!
She nearly disfigured his face the last time and because of that, he had been reprimanded by the old master and grounded for two whole days!
Coincidentally, he had bumped into the culprit here tonight. If he did not teach her a lesson, how could he ever save his reputation?
***
Inside the private room, Su Wanwan looked around in awe as she murmured, “Wow, as expected of Your Royal Highness. You really know how to enjoy life.”
Now she understood why Mo Weiyi said that they were going to watch a movie.
Half of the private room was covered by a huge sofa while the other half had a massive movie screen. Coupled with an impressive sound system, it was the perfect movie theater! The table was filled with all sorts of food, drinks, and games.
The name of the movie was ‘The Former Three’ and it was a romance movie.
Su Wanwan was not interested in this kind of movie at all, so she simply sat down and reached for the alcohol on the table.
“You are not allowed to drink alcohol!” Mo Weiyi said sternly as she pulled Su Wanwan back.
“Why not?” There were tons of wine bottles on the table; weren’t they there for her to drink?
“What will I do if you get drunk? I would not be able to move you at all!” Mo Weiyi replied immediately.
“How could I possibly get drunk?” Su Wanwan snorted.
“No, I’m telling you!” Mo Weiyi insisted. “Do you know where I found you the last time?”
“Didn’t you find me at the police station?”
Mo Weiyi glared at her and scoffed, “I found you in the men’s washroom!”
Men’s washroom?
Su Wanwan was taken aback. “Seriously?”
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask Xiaobai. You were sitting on the floor in the men’s washroom, fast asleep. Fortunately, you were at the police station the other night. Do you know how dangerous it could have been if you were elsewhere? Do you know how many perverts there are out there nowadays? Xiaobai never allows me to drink when I am out alone. After all, as women, we should protect ourselves when we are outside.”
Was her best friend taking the opportunity to make her jealous during this righteous lecture?
Su Wanwan snorted. “Hah! The other day was just an accident. I was angry so I wasn’t paying too much attention to how much I was drinking that night.”
“You are still not allowed to drink.” Mo Weiyi pressed the service bell. “Do you remember how many accidents you’ve had in the past due to alcohol? How often have you beat someone up or ended up in the police station? No matter what, you are only allowed to drink fruit juice tonight! I will ask the waiter to remove the alcoholic drinks and bring us more food.”
Although Mo Weiyi looked very delicate and demure, she could be ferocious and terrifying when she wanted to.
Very soon, the waiter came in and removed all the alcohol on the table.
Su Wanwan watched in distress.
Tobacco and alcohol were two extremes for her – she hated the smell of cigarettes, but she really enjoyed drinking. It made her feel as though she could forget all of her worries and wake up feeling like a completely new person…
A strange song started playing, making Su Wanwan shudder in disgust, and Mo Weiyi’s face became pale as she took out her phone.
“I’m done for. It’s Xiaobai.” Mo Weiyi stood up and said quickly, “Wanwan, I have to go downstairs to answer the call, or else Xiaobai will definitely find out that I am not at home.”
She did not know how, but whenever she wanted to do something ‘bad’, it was almost like Xiao Yebai knew. Sometimes, Mo Weiyi could not help but wonder if he had installed a tracker on her.
Mo Weiyi hurriedly left the private room, and Su Wanwan continued to watch the movie out of boredom.
Knock! Knock!
Someone knocked on the door, and then a waiter entered the private room.
“Hello. This is a free drink, on the house,” the waiter said politely, put a glass down on the table, and then left the room.
Su Wanwan blinked at the drink in disbelief.
Was this place really so good that they gave out free drinks?
It looked like a cocktail, with a red flame-like design floating on top of the blue liquid. It was very beautiful and tempting.
Su Wanwan really wanted to drink it. It was just one cocktail! She could hold her liquor well and Weiyi was not around anyway…
Su Wanwan picked up the glass she took sip after sip of the cocktail, finishing it very quickly.
Mo Weiyi was still not back yet. The movie was about to finish, with the ending song starting to play.
Since Su Wanwan did not have her cell phone with her, she could only sit down and wait for Mo Weiyi in the room.
The door of the private room was suddenly pushed open again. A woman came in and then said, “Sorry. I entered the wrong room.”
The door closed again.
Su Wanwan was sitting on the sofa, but she suddenly felt her vision getting a little hazy.
Entered the wrong room?
She stood up and went to open the door before going out and walking along the corridor.
The club was very large and there were many private rooms on each floor. There was a thick dark-colored carpet on the floor, and yellow lights hanging all over the ceiling.
The more Su Wanwan walked, the more she felt as though she was floating. She was completely unaware of the fact that someone was following her closely.
When she finally pushed a room door open and walked into it, Huo Zexi smirked as he walked over to the room. As soon as he touched the doorknob…
“Zexi.”
Huo Zexi froze.
After a few seconds, Huo Zexi turned around, pretending to be calm as he asked, “Elder brother?”
He did not know why, but whenever Huo Zexi saw Huo Jingshen, he felt guilty. He knew that he was being useless and submissive, but there was nothing else he could do. His elder brother practiced martial arts and was very skilled at fighting.
Huo Jingshen had nearly even broken his hand at the police station the last time.
Furthermore, Huo Jingshen was seven years older than him. Huo Jingshen was already living abroad when Huo Zexi was just starting to become sensible. To top it all off, when Huo Jingshen returned to China, he started working at Huo Yuan Group. Huo Zexi heard that Huo Jingshen’s methods were ruthless and unscrupulous, and several people had suffered incredible losses from them.
His grandfather really valued his eldest grandson and his grandma doted on him too. However, Huo Jingshen always had a very cold and indifferent attitude, even towards his elders. He was very detached from everyone else and this made him even more unpredictable.
Huo Zexi felt that he was a very shrewd person.
Although he was cursing silently in his heart, he had to be respectful on the outside. Huo Zexi had a fake smile on his face as he exclaimed, “What a coincidence! Elder brother, you are here to socialize and entertain too?”
Huo Jingshen stared at him before replying, “This is the private room that Ji Jie booked.”
Ji Jie was the assistant that Old Master Huo had given Huo Jingshen. He was solely responsible for handling all of his affairs in the Huo Yuan Group.
Huo Zexi’s smile froze on his face.
Damn it, how awkward!
How coincidental was it that the room that girl had chosen to enter was Huo Jingshen’s room?! That girl really knew how to pick.
Huo Zexi couldn’t wait to tear Su Wanwan’s body apart!
“Is there a reason why you were looking for me?” Huo Jingshen asked again, gaze calculative.
“No, no,” Huo Zexi hurriedly denied.
If Huo Jingshen found out that he had drugged a woman, he might go back and tell the old master about it.
Huo Zexi released the doorknob as he looked around awkwardly, then smacked his forehead, saying, “Oh! I just realized that I came to the wrong floor. Heh. Elder brother, please carry on with whatever you are doing. I will leave first.”
After he was done speaking, Huo Zexi turned around and ran away immediately.
