Lin Xiao wasn’t the type to be unforgiving just because he was in the right. Besides, Zhao Qingzhi had already knelt on the ground as per their bet. Although he only did so because of Chu Xiangxue’s formidable family background, Lin Xiao felt that since the man had knelt, he was willing to let him go. However, this didn’t an Lin Xiao would also let his sister, Zhao Qingqing, off the hook. It was simply that Lin Xiao had too much on his plate right now and lacked the ti to deal with her. In any case, he had already decided that whenever he found the ti, he would teach Zhao Qingqing a proper lesson. If the Zhao Family dared to use their power to bully others, he wouldn’t mind taking care of them as well.
"You can go now," Lin Xiao said indifferently.
Zhao Qingzhi, who was still kowtowing, felt as if he’d received a grand amnesty. He scrambled to his feet, ready to bolt. But just then, the security room door was pushed open. Su Qingning entered with light, graceful steps.
Her light steps faltered the mont she saw Chu Xiangxue. She froze in the doorway, her devastatingly beautiful face visibly turning cold.
"Why are you here?" Su Qingning asked. Her voice wasn’t cold, but it was far from warm.
Chu Xiangxue smiled. "I’m here for a drink, of course."
Hearing this, Zhao Qingzhi, who had been about to flee, froze. What does she an? Are Chu Xiangxue and Su Qingning friends?
At this realization, Zhao Qingzhi’s heart pounded with excitent. He had genuinely thought Chu Xiangxue stepped in for Lin Xiao because they were friends. He never expected it was because of Su Qingning. In other words, Chu Xiangxue only helped that filthy beggar for Su Qingning’s sake. Zhao Qingzhi had already resolved to swallow today’s humiliation. After all, he wouldn’t dare provoke the Chu Family even if he had ten tis the courage. But if Chu Xiangxue was Su Qingning’s friend, then he would definitely find soone to teach that filthy beggar a lesson. There was no way Zhao Qingzhi could stomach that insult. Although he wished he could kill Lin Xiao right then and there, he didn’t act on it imdiately. He lowered his head and gave a silent, vicious grin. He cursed inwardly, You filthy beggar, you’re dead at!
After watching Zhao Qingzhi leave, Su Qingning’s gaze fell upon Pei Yanzi, who was standing to the side. Honestly, Su Qingning felt a jolt of surprise the mont she saw her. Yes, Pei Yanzi’s looks had startled her. Despite being a great beauty herself, Su Qingning felt at that mont that the girl before her was even more beautiful. But that wasn’t the point. The point was why she was in the security room. Could she be here for Lin Xiao, too? Or did Chu Xiangxue bring her?
"Lin Xiao, who is this?" Su Qingning asked impassively.
"Oh, that’s Pei Donglai’s sister, Pei Yanzi."
Hearing this, Su Qingning felt a strange and inexplicable wave of relief. She smiled. "I see. Yanzi, are you here to find your brother?"
Pei Yanzi shook her head shyly. To be honest, the mont she saw Su Qingning, an intense feeling of inferiority washed over her. She knew she was pretty, but in front of this devastatingly beautiful woman, Pei Yanzi felt like an ugly duckling.
"Yanzi is here to see her idol," Lin Xiao explained with a smile.
"Idol?" Su Qingning looked at Chu Xiangxue dubiously.
Chu Xiangxue gave a sweet smile. Though she said nothing, her smile was answer enough.
"In that case, let’s move to a private room. It’s not right to keep standing around in the security office," Su Qingning said indifferently.
Chu Xiangxue laughed. "Sure!"
With that, she flashed a smile at Lin Xiao, put on her sunglasses, and walked out.
Su Qingning shot Lin Xiao a cold glare, her expression clearly saying, ’Just you wait until I deal with you later.’
Lin Xiao was speechless. What did I do wrong?
As he led Chu Xiangxue and Pei Yanzi out of the security room, Pei Yanzi said, blushing profusely, "Miss Su, Idol, I have to go now. I have other things to do!"
"Won’t you stay and chat for a bit?" Chu Xiangxue asked gently.
"No, I can’t. I still have howork to do."
"Alright then. We’ll see each other again!" Chu Xiangxue said with a smile.
Pei Yanzi nodded quickly, turned, and walked toward the bar’s exit.
Pei Donglai’s face lit up when he saw his sister. "Yanzi, did you get to et your idol?" he asked with a smile.
Pei Yanzi smiled and nodded. She was especially charming when she smiled, her eyes curving into crescents. However, she only revealed such a captivating smile in front of her brother. Only with him could she completely relax.
"I did, Brother! Chu Xiangxue is so beautiful, and she’s a really nice person," Pei Yanzi said cheerfully.
"That’s good. Co on, I’m taking you sowhere!"
"Where are we going?" Pei Yanzi asked curiously.
Pei Donglai smiled. "You’ll know when we get there!"
He planned to take her to see the apartnt Lin Xiao had given them. After all, that was where they would be living from now on.
"Okay!" Pei Yanzi nodded.
After leading Chu Xiangxue into the bar, Su Qingning went straight to a private room. "What would you like to drink?" Su Qingning asked.
Chu Xiangxue smiled. "Water is fine!"
"You ca to a bar to drink water?" Su Qingning retorted.
Chu Xiangxue also retorted with a grin, "Why? Is there a problem?"
"No."
Su Qingning had a waiter bring in two bottles of water. "Miss Chu, these two bottles are on . Enjoy them. I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now."
"Don’t be in such a hurry. I actually ca today to discuss sothing with you," Chu Xiangxue said with a smile.
"What is it?"
"Let’s sit and talk."
Su Qingning sat down on the sofa. Chu Xiangxue stared at her. To be frank, Chu Xiangxue’s eyes were beautiful—large and bright. Her face owed its exceptional spirit to those eyes. Su Qingning began to feel a little uncomfortable under her gaze. "Miss Chu, don’t tell this ’sothing’ you wanted to discuss was just staring at ."
Chu Xiangxue chuckled. "Of course not. Qingning, I must admit, you are truly beautiful. You might be the most charming girl I have ever seen. The entertainnt industry is full of beauties, but none of them can compare to you."
Su Qingning did not get conceited over Chu Xiangxue’s praise. On the contrary, she remained very level-headed. "Miss Chu, you flatter . You’re publicly acknowledged as the Heavenly Immortal of the entertainnt industry. Compared to you, I’m nothing."
Chu Xiangxue smiled. "Qingning, you’re too modest. Alright, I’ll get to the point."
"Please."
Chu Xiangxue took a sip of water and said unhurriedly, "Divorce Lin Xiao."
