In front of the group of people surrounding the table as they drank and chatted, a very beautiful woman appeared. She was wearing a ruby red dress with small sequins that sparkled like diamonds reflecting the dim light that illuminated the hall. The sound of her high heels tapping the floor with each of her steps was like a beautiful lody and the sight of her white legs that seed to shine because of how well cared for they were attracted the eyes of the n nearby like a magnet.
"As expected of a mber of the Mu family." Nangong Lei sneered as he looked intently at the woman in front of them, "Every woman in that family is like a seductive devil.... Oh well. What can I say about it? I guess it’s normal. After all, the power coursing through their veins depends on us n to function."
Mu Yin looked at him sideways and smiled. As she played with his hair, she murmured aloud, "I wonder who it was a few months ago, drunk, was willing to get down on his knees and beg for the sake of getting under my skirt.... Poor little bastard, even then he couldn’t get what he wanted."
Nangong Lei’s face changed and the smirk on his face slowly disappeared as he looked at Mu Yin with cold eyes. The people nearby were also looking at him strangely, but even so, Nangong Lei knew perfectly well that by not talking about him; any man could easily fall at the feet of a Mu Family mber.
"Do you want to die?" he asked coldly.
Mu Yin did not flinch and instead, she continued to smile as she teased, "You dare? Although I cannot defeat you, I can assure you that your position as the next patriarch of the Nangong Family will be revoked imdiately and even your life would not be guaranteed. I wonder if your Nangong family can assu to go against my Mu family now that they are under the eyes of a powerful enemy..."
Nangong Lei clenched his teeth tightly and the wine cup previously in his hands would have broken into a thousand pieces if it wasn’t because he had left it on the table a few seconds earlier. As much as it pained him, Mu Yin’s words were true.
Although Mu Yin’s status and importance to the Mu Family could not compare to Nangong Lei’s status and importance to the Nangong Family, it was naturally impossible for him to assassinate her unless he was willing to start a war between families. You should know that even if the Mu Family was much weaker than the Nangong Family, they were still strong enough to shake their base; that was sothing no one was willing to see.
Yao Zenyu, who had stood on the sidelines after Nangong Lei interrupted with Mu Yin’s arrival, finally spoke up when he saw that things were bad: "Alright, how about we relax?"
Attracting everyone’s attention excitedly, Yao Zenyu smiled kindly and remarked, "This is my dear little sister’s birthday, I’d like us all to have fun and have a good ti.... In an atmosphere as friendly as possible."
Nangong Lei stopped looking at Mu Yin and turned his attention to the dance floor again. His eyes fell on Gu Qianxue and after a mont’s hesitation, he stood up and left without a word.
On the other hand, Mu Yin looked at Yao Zenyu indifferently and remarked with a smile that was not a smile, "Young master Yao, I hope you will watch your words better. Here, both you and I know very well that my cousin Wuying was never in love with you..... And I think, knowing the extrely hard and special characteristics of my cousin’s skill, you also know that it is impossible for her to love you."
Leaving those words behind, Mu Yin ignored everyone and without waiting for a reply retreated again. Her waist swayed gently, attracting the gaze of dozens of n, but she did not even glance at them and disappeared into the crowd of people.
Yao Zenyu looked at Mu Yin’s back until she was no longer visible, then turned his attention to the dance floor and his eyes fixed on Mu Wuying, who was still dancing with Xie Feng. His eyes shone with madness, love, greed, desire, many powerful emotions.
Since he was young, Yao Zenyu had always been madly in love with Mu Wuying. Her beauty, her voice, her personality, the way she walked, and even the way she smiled had captured his heart at a very young age. Unfortunately, Mu Wuying’s heart never belonged to him.... This was sothing Yao Zenyu knew very well.
"We’ll see." He muttered under his breath as he drank his glass of wine to the bottom. "I don’t think there is any incorruptible woman in this world."

Shen Xinya was surrounded by people, as in the beginning of the birthday banquet. Most of these people were naturally n who were trying to woo her by any ans possible. If it were any other normal woman, it was very likely that she would have fallen under the charms of one of them; after all, no matter whether it was financial or political status, appearance or behavior, the young masters present were the cream of the crop.
However, who was Shen Xinya? What kind of n had she not yet seen? Even one of the most powerful n in the world, Avan Rothschild, eldest son and next heir to be the leader of the Rothschild Family, was rejected by her without even a second’s hesitation; not to ntion the youngs n in front of her.
Although she was smiling, Shen Xinya’s mind was elsewhere and her heart was in total chaos.
To say that she did not love Xie Feng was a total lie. The only reason why she had never had a boyfriend until now even when she was already 20 years old, was because she couldn’t think of anyone else but that naughty boy she t during her childhood. However, thinking about Xie Feng’s proposal, she hesitated.
She really wanted to be with him, she really wanted to wake up beside him and see his sleeping face, she really wanted to lie beside him at night and see his tired face until he fell asleep. But... Did she really have to share? She was not willing.
Shen Xinya was very arrogant; but she had the capacity to act arrogant. She had millions of male fans not only in Asia, but all over the world.She was considered the most beautiful woman in the entire Asian continent, the most beautiful woman in all of China, the mysterious and powerful Kali in the virtual world as well as the 1st beauty in the ranking of beautiful won, daughter of Shen Duan, the richest man in all of Asia... With so many exalted statuses, if she did not have the right to be proud and arrogant, then who?
However, even being arrogant and proud, she hesitated.
Seeing Xie Feng dancing with so many beautiful won, one after another, the will of a jealous woman overwheld her senses and it was only a thread of rationality that restrained her from making a ridiculous scene. Shen Xinya had no idea why she loved Xie Feng so much... She loved him since they were little, when Xie Feng was not at all handso like he was now, and during the ti when he was acting quite pathetic and cowardly since he didn’t want to hurt anyone.
Why were they all willing to share him? Why were they all willing to share his heart and love without hesitation? Don’t they feel jealousy? Shen Xinya’s mind was clouded with a fog ford by so many questions.
In the end, they were answers she could not answer. But she knew that there were people capable of answering. After thinking for so long, from the beginning of the banquet until now, Shen Xinya finally ca to a conclusion.

After dancing with Gu Qianxue, Xie Yao, and Mu Wuying, Xie Feng thought the dancing ti was over and he could finally rest. But things did not always turn out as one expected.
After the three beauties, Yang Li’er also decided to dance with him, which quite surprised him.
"Weren’t you supposed to be scared of ?" he asked as he hugged her and moved to the rhythm of the music.
Yang Li’er, being shorter than Xie Feng even in high-heels, looked up to et his gaze and replied calmly, "Well, I’m kind of scared of you.... But I’m also curious."
Xie Feng raised an eyebrow and smiled playfully, "Although I am curious about the reason for your apprehension, I won’t ask for now.... But, I advise you not to be so curious about ."
"Oh?" Yang Li’er was surprised. Her fear seed to disappear as a smile ford on her lips and she asked, "And why am I not supposed to be curious towards you?"
Xie Feng gracefully spun her around as he held her with one of his hands and then hugged her again. With a confident smile, he replied, "Don’t you know? When a woman begins to be curious about a man, she is actually only one step away from falling in love."
Yang Li’er blinked, surprised. Falling in love? Her? She shook her head secretly. She didn’t think such a thing was possible. She looked at her surroundings and saw many handso n looking at her with desire, affection, longing, lust, and many other emotions.
But as she looked at Xie Feng, all she saw was confidence. It was then that she finally understood the reason why so many beautiful and excellent won were captivated by him.
Xie Feng was handso, he had money, he was powerful, he was mature enough to inspire confidence but he was also funny and mischievous enough to make won smile. The aura of confidence that surrounded him and the smile of disdain that ford on his face unconsciously.... Everything about him was like dope to won.
"Don’t look at so much... or what? You’re already captivated little beauty?" Xie Feng’s mocking voice brought Yang Li’er out of her thoughts and she blushed as she realized that she had been staring at his face for longer than would be considered polite.
Unconsciously, Yang Li’er turned her gaze away and did not dare to et Xie Feng’s eyes while trying to respond as calmly as possible, "Although I already guessed it, I just affird it. You really are a man who knows nothing about sha!"
"Sha?" Xie Feng shook his head and smiled, "Life is short to be held back by sha. When our lives are over, sha will not accompany us to the grave, it will be regret."
