Chapter 200: Black Curtain
Chapter 200: Black Curtain
Xiao Yun evaded her eyes, cold sweat formed in her forehead. She almost choked just now.
Looking around to see whether she could escape, she smiled awkwardly to hear him talking. "Sit down."
"Yes." Xiao Yun sat as though her life depended on it. She thought of telling Zhi Ling Ling That "Yu Qian" is her cross dressing self but with the people on the tables now, she can't say it aloud. Especially, with the Vinegar Demon Lord beside her! She doesn't even dare to see his face now.
When the drinks came, the six people each drank on its own, while the boys were busy with talking by glaring, Xiao Yun and her friends spoke to reminisce their highschool time.
"But I can't really believe you are good at studying, Xiao Yun." Nie An slurped the drink from the straw.
"Well," She turned her eyes upward to Wang Li Lei and giggled. "It's because he taught me."
Nie An peeked to see Wang Li Lei's face growing gentle when he gazed at Xiao Yun. She thought Wang Li Lei as a cold-hearted man and that was true but when Xiao Yun was beside him, his entire demeanor changed. The face and gentleness he used must be his expression of love for Xiao Yun. Even though her fear for him didn't change, she knew she could trust him to protect Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun saw tears forming from Nie An's eyes and stood up in a panic. "Why are you crying?" Wang Li Lei passed her the tissue box and she took a few pieces to wipe her friend's tears.
"When I thought we will not be meeting again, I- I'm sad..."
Xiao Yun wasn't good at comforting people and thus she couldn't find the right way to coo her friend from crying.
"Me too-" Zhi Ling Ling rubbed her eyes with tears.
"Ah-" Xiao Yun flapped her hand around in confusion. "Don't cry." was the only word she could say. She hugged her friends' shoulders and spoke from her heart. "It's not as if we will never meet each other again, you can call me and I will also do the same. If anything happens, you can directly call me... even if nothing happens, you can also call me."
"Mn..." The two nodded to agree but their tears grew stronger.
"Ah, geez. Don't cry." she rubbed their heads. It would be a lie if she also didn't feel sad, moving to another page of her life she could feel a hole form in her heart. She chuckled, in the past life she had no friend but a vixen who acted like one and now that she has two who treated her dearly she could understand what a friend for life meant.
And she had two now. How lucky I am, she thought to herself.
Xue Xiu Yong looked at them and propped his head with his arm. After taking pictures with polaroid cameras that Zhi Ling Ling bought, they exited the cafe.
Xue Xiu Yong stood next to Wang Li Lei and gathered his words to speak. "CEO Wang, I leave Xiao Yun to you." the words were both a message and him admitting of defeat.
Wang Li Lei gave a chuckle very lightly between his lips, his eyes as though he was confident, saying, "She had been mine from the start." Seeing Xiao Yun coming to him with her cherry cheeks, he placed his hand on her shoulders and opened the car for her to enter before him.
Xue Xiu Yong stood there frozen to his heels and suddenly ruffled his hair to rage. "He pisses me off! I regret saying that! Damn you Demon Lord!"
Chuang Huan Wu stood there giggling at his awkward behavior. Xue Xiu Yong glared at him in contempt, "Why are you laughing at me? Don't you feel annoyed too?"
"Why?" He was genuinely confused by his question.
Xue Xiu Yong was taken aback by his question and squinted his eyes, "Don't you secretly like Xiao Yun? Don't you feel irritated that the Demon Lord smugly said those things?"
"Like I said before, I do like Xiao Yun but more than like, I admire her." The prince spoke smoothly with a smile. "If you are speaking about whether I love her in a romantic sense, I don't. I already have someone else I love," he spoke gently and excuse himself from the group to take a call from his phone.
Xue Xiu Yong exhaled a heavy sigh and murmured to himself. "Let's go home now."
When there were on the road to her home, Xiao Yun hoped Wang Li Lei would forget what her friends spoke about her cross-dressing self.
"Yu Qian." Wang Li Lei named and turned his stare teasingly at her with a stale smile.
There was something people once said 'Not to think much of what you hide as people could fin out' and now she found herself to be in the position. "I can explain that."
"You don't have to."
"No! Please let me explain that." Xiao Yun insisted and saw him decking his head to agree. Is she didn't speak her way now, she don't think she could rest.
"It was my crossdressing self, I really didn't do anything that could seduce anyone but you know it was the so-called Love at first sight and I don't have control over that.-" She blurted her out the words as though she was rapping and suddenly heard him speaking in between.
"Conclusion?"
"I will never crossdress again unless it is direly needed." Xiao Yun replied hastily, gulped and waited for his response with her head down.
"Alright." he was being very very lenient for her. Especially with how jealous he is and Xiao Yun knew it too.
Jang Hyun sitting in the driver seat, found the scene rather funny as he couldn't purse his lips anymore to laugh. They were almost like a rabbit scolded by a lion. Very adorable.
When they exited the car at Xiao Yun's house, he extended his hand to hold the contour of her face and brought his lips to kiss her forehead. "See you next time, darling.-"
As the door shut, Xiao Yun touched her forehead to gulp.
Wang Li Lei calling her darling was much more of a bewitching nickname that would soon rob her life because now her heart couldn't bear with its loud thumping anymore.
Dangerous, the combination of Wang Li Lei and his voice whispering to call her darling was too dangerous! It's a lethal weapon!
She turned her face waving her warm cheeks to giggle at herself and hopped her skips to her room to tell her parents her remarkable marks.
The other flip of the coin in the midnight silence, crows gawked around and flapped its wings away in a hurry as though it had just sensed a threatening figure coming to take their lives. Choi Yeon Jun reached out his long legs, stepping out of the car with Zheng Xi Shi his secretary and Chengye his bodyguards.
"Why are we here again?" Chengye asked stubbornly with a bothered tone and yawned.
Zheng Xi Shi held his face straight without caring Chengye's sloppy attitude. "Master, should we really believe them? They're a Chinese group."
Choi Yeon Jun fixed his black gloves ad shrugged his shoulder languidly. "Hearing first wouldn't do any harm, would it? Who knows, perhaps they do have some interesting to offer."
"I understand." Zheng Xi Shi didn't ask further and pointed out their men to crowd the Head. "Protect the head, if there are any injury on him, ask your forgiveness with your life." His words were chillingly murderous, holding no expression when he talks, the people in the Choi Group knew how Zheng Xi Shi would smile eerily when he fought.
They went inside the restaurant. It was a special Micheline star restaurant that always shone glamourous with the bold light but tonight with a Demon coming to the place, it grew million times darker.
The employees couldn't bear to held their heads up and glued their eyes to the floor, fear coming up to the strands of the hairs. If they could run now they would have done that earlier. As it was at midnight, there were almost no people in the restaurant except for Choi Yeon Jun's men.
The female waiter stood in front of a black curtain that separated the room between the private room and stutters to the point that she almost bite into her own tongue. "Mr. Choi has arrived."
Choi Yeon Jun smiled gently and whispered. "Thank you." but his words offer no console to the girl, instead it made her cry in fear.
Who didn't know Choi Yeon Jun? Perhaps many people but as the waitress have always seen the people from the underworld sitting in the private room, she knew the best who was the most frightening out of all the people that she had met before.
Choi Yeon Jun sighed while turning his head toward Zheng Xi Shi. "Mind telling me what did I do wrong? I can't seem to talk without making other fearing me, Xi Shi."
"Yes boss," Zheng Xi Shi replied with a deadpanned tone. "I would say that your image are scary thus other's fearing you is can't be helped."
Chengye laughed while holding his sides. "Did you hear that boss, Xi Shi can actually jokes now!"
"I'm not joking." Zheng Xi Shi replied.
"Well, that's even worse, Xi Shi." Choi Yeon Jun sighed. "Bring someone to teach me how to talk with someone later. I don't think the books works."
"Boss, you read books?" Chengye asked curiously, "What kind of books?" He added.
"This one is the one I'm currently reading." Choi Yeon Jun pulled a book from his inner pocket and gave it to him. Chengye shifted his mischievous gaze to read the title before bursting to a very loud laughter. "Poor social skill level up advancement lessons!!! Hahaha!" Due to his loud laughter, it was almost hard for him to catch his breath. Zheng Xi Shi only gave him a distant gaze of rejection. When he hard something in his earpiece, Zheng Xi Shi declared. "Boss, let's go now."
"Alright." Choi Yeon Jun replied but the stopped a step to speak to Chengye. "Can you recommend better book than this?"
Chengye covered his mouth, knowing Zheng Xi Shi the obedient hound dog would reprimand him for telling the boss, he whispered. "Rather than a book, I know a game that involve girls and conversations."
"That sounds good. Show me your recommendation later." Choi Yeon Jun replied with an intrigued hum between his parted lips.
Zheng Xi Shi opened the curtain and lead his master inside after him to confirm the security of the room. In the middle of the room where the table was, a wooden curtain covered the face of the person who sat before Choi Yeon Jun. He knew that the person today came without wanting to reveal his identity and agreed nevertheless so he had expected this before he came.
He crossed his legs, placing his hand on the armrest and heard a voice speaking from the other side of the curtain.
"Head Group of Choi, Mr. Choi it is nice to meet you."
