Chapter 160 — The Man He Had Been Waiting For - "Two Beautiful Ladies, May I Have the Honor of Sitting Here and Buying You a Drink?"
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 2
Gu Mengyao was caught between hope and misgiving when she heard someone speaking beside her. She turned her head and saw a very refined man.
For a man to be called refined meant he was flawless, and not with that creamy pretty-boy air. This man had a fine build, tall and well proportioned, with handsome features that gave a sense of cleanliness and taste.
He wore a casual suit with the buttons left naturally undone, which made him look free and easy, with a cool edge about him.
Such a man could absolutely be called a slayer of young girls, but Gu Mengyao had not the slightest interest in him. Her mind was already in turmoil, and here came another troublemaker just when she did not know what to do with that earlier "duck." Her eyes flickered, and she pointed at the earlier pretty boy and said, "Can't you see there is already a man here?" Her intention had been to set the two of them against each other, but to her surprise, the moment the pretty boy saw the refined man, he rose at once, as if terrified of him, and turned and walked away without a word.
"This..." Gu Mengyao was left speechless. What sort of man was this? Was he not too spineless for words? And someone like that came out to work as a duck!
"Heh, miss, he has already yielded his seat." The refined man smiled faintly, sat down where the pretty boy had sat, and lifted the red wine in his hand. "Let us have a drink together..."
Gu Mengyao was not stupid. Since that pretty boy had given his place to this refined man so readily, it showed the refined man must haunt this bar often, and the pretty boy knew him. And this refined man clearly had some power behind him, or the pretty boy would never have slunk away so meekly.
She turned to look at Shen Yushu, and found her looking back at herself. They had clearly thought of the same thing. This refined man would not be easy to deal with. It was their first time coming to a bar, and they did not want to stir up any trouble. If word reached Gu Pengzhan, they would surely be scolded.
"Sorry, we drove here..." Gu Mengyao did not want to waste words on the refined man, and answered him coldly. If he had any sense, he should get up and leave now.
"Oh? I could not tell..." The refined man seemed not to care at all about Gu Mengyao's displeasure. "That man who just left, if I am not mistaken, is a male escort here..."
Seeing that Shen Yushu said nothing, Gu Mengyao could only snort to herself. That girl only knew how to run wild with her at home. Once outside, at the first sign of danger, she fell silent. Gu Mengyao was furious.
"I take it you two ladies are here looking for excitement..." The refined man shed his earlier gentility, and his words turned blunt. "Let us speak plainly. Instead of paying for thrills, why not... heh, I think I can satisfy what you both need." "What did you say?" Gu Mengyao's face flushed red in an instant. What did he mean? She was still a virgin, for goodness sake. Excitement, my foot. She edged her body to one side, feeling that coming to this bar had perhaps been a mistake...
"No need to pretend, why put on airs with me..." As he spoke, the refined man reached out without ceremony to stroke Gu Mengyao's fragrant shoulder, hoping to steal a kiss.
Gu Mengyao grew anxious and dodged in a hurry. Shen Yushu had not expected this refined man to lay hands on her so directly either, and turned to look for Wei Zhao. Huh? Where was Wei Zhao?
"Smack." Before the refined man's hand could touch Gu Mengyao, it was caught in midair and blocked aside.
"Quite right, no need to pretend. Who sent you? Tell the man behind you to come out..." Wei Zhao gripped the refined man's arm and said coldly.
Though refined in looks, this man was no mere pretty face. On the contrary, he was formidable. He was one of Li Cihua's trusted men, with blood on his hands. Wei Zhao could feel it from his aura, though an ordinary person would never notice.
