Chapter 240: Chapter 27 Shocking! Soone Pays the Bill_1
…
“Shopkeeper, who’s in that private room?” Lady Bilian suppressed her fury, her tone turning surprisingly calm.
This was her strength.
She would never offend anyone without knowing their background, especially those she couldn’t afford to deal with. Moreover, she was particularly adept at building relationships with various young elites.
The shopkeeper imdiately summoned the boy responsible for the said room. Once he had inford him, he turned to Lady Bilian and said, “My Lady, this room was reserved by Wang Shouxin of the Wang family from Longzuo—a well-established reputable family with Celestial Beings. Wang Shouxin is also among the younger generation of outstanding disciples in the Purple Abode Academy. It is rumored that he has the potential to beco a core disciple.”
“Wang Shouxin must be hosting an honorable guest since he has apparently ordered very expensive dishes.”
A prominent family of Celestial Beings? Potential for being a core disciple? Hosting an honorable guest?
Lady Bilian’s eyes glowed faintly. She glanced at Chi Junjie beside her and asked, “Young Master Chi, do you know Wang Shouxin?”
As soon as he heard the na Wang Shouxin, Chi Junjie’s face hardened slightly, and he responded with subtle hostility, “Wang Shouxin and I are under the tutelage of Master Xuanyao. We are of similar age and talents. However, I heard he hails from a prominent family of Celestial Beings and gets more resources from his family, which gives him a slight edge over in strength.”
Despite his apparent discontent with Wang Shouxin, his answer was factually correct.
“In that case, he must surely be a young elite.” The gleam in Lady Bilian’s eyes sparked montarily, but it was soon replaced by a harsh glare. It was evident she recalled sothing that had upset her.
After weighing the situation and deeming her opponent tolerable, she imdiately pushed the door open, her penetrating gaze swept over everyone in the room.
Inside, there were four won and three n.
Her gaze first scanned over the four won.
Huh?
Suddenly, Lady Bilian paused slightly, puzzled.
Among the four won, three were dressed like unwed ladies, while the fourth was a strikingly beautiful married woman—all still very young.
Each one of them was extraordinarily elegant, their appearances exquisite, radiating a distinctive aura as if enlightened by celestial beings.
No wonder Lady Bilian did not know any of them.
Each of them, in fact, had Top-Grade Bloodline Talents.
A stronger bloodline would naturally enhance one’s physical features.
Of course, it does not an that all good-looking people have strong bloodlines. In fact, many people who look good are only superficially attractive, rely gold-plated.
But a purity and strength in their bloodline lead to an evolutionary enhancent of their appearance and disposition.
However, one cannot judge a person’s bloodline strength simply by their appearance.
Upon seeing these four won, who were like hidden treasures, Lady Bilian’s already sour mood turned even more foul.
Then she turned to the three n.
Two of them were young n, dressed ticulously, exuding the air of dashing nobility, like dragons among n.
Especially the younger one.
He was handso and august, his movents were calm and unhurried, disseminating a profound and majestic aura.
From his deanor and seating position, it was evident that he was used to being in a high position.
As for the sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, his body was bulging with muscles, sitting there robustly like a calf, his face full of innocence. This young man can be ignored, he certainly was not that Prince Teng.
Just as Lady Bilian was nonchalantly observing everyone, everybody’s eyes simultaneously fell on her and her company.
Wang Shouzhe furrowed his brow slightly, asking in a steady tone, “Have you walked into the wrong room?”
At this remark,
Lady Bilian felt a sting. Her gaze narrowed on Wang Shouzhe and she said with a cold grin, “So it’s you, Prince Teng.”
Prince Teng?
The people of the Wang family were all puzzled, they probably got the wrong person.
Even Wang Shouzhe was confused, Prince Teng? Wasn’t that the fake na he had used at Donghaei to conceal his identity while shopping?
Right away,
He looked at Lady Bilian, puzzled, “Do we know each other, big…sister?” He swallowed the labels ‘aunt’ and ‘granny’ in a split second, choosing what he thought was a slightly appropriate term.
Big sister?
The flas of Lady Bilian’s anger soared uncontrollably again. She was not one known for her tolerance. At her parental ho, her husband’s house, and even in the business world, everyone made a point to get along with her.
She had never been addressed as ‘big sister.’
Besides, Prince Teng didn’t have any impressions of her. How could she, who considered herself irresistibly charming, tolerate that?
“Mr. Wang, rembering the disgraceful things you did to at Donghaei?” Lady Bilian laughed out of anger, “I thought you’d have run back to Northern Ridge Province by now. Unexpectedly, I’d run into you again.”
Disgraceful deeds?
The people of the Wang family then shifted their complex gaze towards Wang Shouzhe.
However, Liu Ruolan was unmoved. She knew her husband’s nature, while she couldn’t guarantee outright that he would not cheat on her, but she was confident that he was certainly not attracted to Lady Bilian’s type.
“Oh~” Wang Shouzhe finally rembered, “You’re the one, the one from Hundred Treasures Pavilion. Yes, yes, what was it again, Bilian…yes, Lady Bìluò. No wonder you looked familiar— what a surprise.”
“It’s Lady Bilian.” Lady Bilian corrected him through gritted teeth.
“Right, right, I rember now.” Wang Shouzhe nodded solemnly, “It is indeed Lady Bilian, what a surprise.”
He then looked at her with puzzlent, “Do you…need anything from ?”
