Qi Longbing looked at the delicate little face beaming with a smile. Her large eyes, small nose, and the slight upturn of her lips made her resemble an overly clever Spirit. However, he distinctly noticed the insincerity behind that smile.
"Happy... but not yet entirely satisfied," Qi Longbing replied, his lips quirking. His eyes shone with a critical yet playful light.
"UH..." Hua Xiaomo froze for a mont. Anger flared in her heart, but she still managed a smile. "Then, President Qi, what would it take for you to be fully satisfied?"
Qi Longbing eyed her and chuckled. "I want to go sowhere else tonight. Would you like to co?"
Hua Xiaomo’s hands clenched behind her back, though she maintained a smile. "Does President Qi an there are more activities tonight?" Are you trying to torture to death? Damn it!
"There are. Plenty of them," Qi Longbing replied, still smiling. He found it amusing to see her clearly angry yet forcing herself to maintain a pleasant expression. His tone was light. "If you’re unwilling, you can leave now."
"Willing... Of course, I’m willing!" Hua Xiaomo imdiately said with a smile. Leave now? Wouldn’t that an all my previous efforts were wasted? HMPH!
Qi Longbing, you bastard! I hope you play yourself to death!
Hua Xiaomo kept smiling on the surface while cursing him internally. Her heart was in turmoil, and she felt utterly uncomfortable.
Yet, he appeared as harmless as a fox, a radiant, sun-like smile on his handso face that was irresistibly eye-catching.
By now, Hua Xiaomo truly loathed him in her heart.
"Alright, let’s go now," Qi Longbing said with a smile, taking her by the elbow and leading her forward.
"President Qi, aren’t you waiting for Miss Pan?" Hua Xiaomo looked at him suspiciously. Leaving his girlfriend aside like that... what ga is he playing?
Qi Longbing glanced back at her. "Wait for her? For what?"
"Isn’t she your girlfriend?"
"Girlfriend? HA..." Qi Longbing let out a cold laugh and said no more. His blue eyes held a playful glint. "Hua Xiaomo, are you hinting at sothing?"
"..." Hua Xiaomo was stunned. She imdiately furrowed her brow and tried to pull her hand back, but Qi Longbing’s grip was surprisingly firm, even causing a dull ache in her wrist.
Hua Xiaomo clenched her teeth in anger, yet she forced a smile. "President Qi... could you kindly let go of my hand?"
Seeing her obviously fake smile, the smile on Qi Longbing’s handso, Angel-like face broadened even more.
This girl’s performance is quite fascinating! I’m looking forward to her next act.
"Let’s go!" Ignoring her resistance, Qi Longbing quickly pulled her to an elevator around the corner.
The elevator arrived, and they stepped inside. Qi Longbing pressed a button for a lower floor and, at that mont, finally let go of her wrist.
"President Qi, where are we going? The basent?" Hua Xiaomo asked, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
The confined space, with just the two of them, felt sowhat uncomfortable.
Qi Longbing smiled faintly, his lips curling slightly. "You’ll know when we get there."
Hua Xiaomo didn’t reply, but her mind was racing. A hint of anxiety flickered in her eyes as she said with a forced smile, "President Qi, could I trouble you to call Director Zhang?"
"Of course..." Qi Longbing replied with an elegant smile. But when he saw her eyes suddenly brighten, he quickly added, "But that depends on whether I feel like it."
UH... That’s as good as saying nothing! This asshole! Bastard! Scumbag! Damned wolf, damned fox! I knew he wouldn’t be so kind-hearted.
Hua Xiaomo cursed him furiously in her heart. Looking at his perfectly beautiful smile, she really wanted to slap him.
Endure. Alright, I have to hold back.
Hua Xiaomo turned her face away, her expression growing colder.
Qi Longbing saw her despondent look and couldn’t help but smile. "If you’re unhappy, it affects my mood too, you know."
"HEHEHE..." Hua Xiaomo gave him an incredibly bright smile. Her words, though spoken with a laugh, were tinged with hatred. "President Qi, do I look unhappy to you?"
"Doesn’t it hurt to talk like that?" Qi Longbing said, deliberately ignoring her question.
"Qi! Long! Bing!" Hua Xiaomo chewed on each syllable, as if she wanted to bite him into pieces.
"HMM? If you get this upset... it can be contagious, you know! HEHE!" Qi Longbing chuckled, put one hand in his pocket, and quickly brushed past her out of the elevator.
Hua Xiaomo pressed a hand against the elevator door. If she weren’t at his rcy, she would have tossed her head and stord off imdiately. She never wanted to see his face again.
"Hurry up! Don’t waste my ti!" Qi Longbing said, looking at Hua Xiaomo with a cheerful smile. Interesting. This little lady has quite a fiery spirit. Like a little tigress.
No doubt, playing with her will be all the more amusing!
Hua Xiaomo bit her inner lip, her hand clenching slightly, but she still stepped out of the elevator.
「...」
To be precise, this was the third basent level. The atmosphere here was sowhat strange. The entrance was a huge, circular crystal corridor.
As they entered the corridor, a person ca out to et them. It was none other than Yu Bao. "President Qi, you’ve arrived?" He quickly noticed Hua Xiaomo, the girl accompanying Qi Longbing.
"Is that kid here yet?" Qi Longbing asked as he walked deeper into the corridor, his expression cool and nonchalant.
"He’s already here," Yu Bao replied, his attitude extrely deferential.
Qi Longbing stopped, a thoughtful smile playing on his lips. He glanced sideways at Hua Xiaomo, who had fallen slightly behind. "Miss Hua, make sure you perform well tonight!"
Hua Xiaomo furrowed her brow. She had felt sothing was off ever since she arrived. She didn’t speak, rely following him into the world inside.
Only after entering did she discover a huge fighting arena hidden within.
