"You have a bad cold, so you should rest well."
Chu Lingtian glanced at Liu Bingxue, who was still eating noodles at the dining table, her face slightly flushed and her expression a mix of shyness and anger. He quietly sent a text message to Sophie Fei.
*Ding!*
Soon, Sophie Fei replied to Chu Lingtian: "I'm fine. Come tomorrow. I really have something I want to tell you face to face."
"Your mother doesn't want me to interact with you much. Forget it, let's just go our separate ways." Chu Lingtian replied again.
"I will wait for you until you come." Sophie Fei replied again, her tone firm.
Chu Lingtian smiled and didn't reply to Sophie Fei anymore. He really hadn't expected to have any connection with this most popular female superstar in Longguo. He also really didn't want to have too much interaction with Sophie Fei. It wasn't that he disliked her, but he felt there was no need to deliberately create a connection. Moreover, Sophie Fei's mother, Cai Hong, disliked him so much.
"Let's go, to the company." Liu Bingxue finished her noodles, picked up a tissue with her right hand, wiped her sexy, rosy cherry lips, and stood up, looking at Chu Lingtian in the kitchen.
"Okay, I'll wash the dishes and tidy up the kitchen before we go." Chu Lingtian replied.
Liu Bingxue looked at Chu Lingtian's back as he washed dishes in the kitchen. For a moment, she truly felt the warmth of home, but then she shook her head. The man she liked was ambitious and hardworking, not a decadent man like Chu Lingtian who lacked ambition. However, Liu Bingxue didn't know that Chu Lingtian's skills in washing, cooking, and housework were all honed in the army. Every soldier, especially those who fought bloody battles on the border for years, would have a miserable life if they couldn't do these things themselves, only able to eat cold military rations and wear clothes full of dirt and bacteria every day. Truly excellent men are those who excel in all aspects.
Driving, Chu Lingtian dropped Liu Bingxue off at the company, and then returned to the security booth in the underground parking lot to start his shift. As he parted ways with Liu Bingxue, Chu Lingtian said, "This half-day lateness this morning wasn't entirely my fault. You also have some responsibility for dragging me down in bed last night. You're not going to deduct my wages again, are you?"
Liu Bingxue glared at Chu Lingtian with her beautiful eyes, said nothing, and then walked towards the elevator, her hips swaying naturally as she walked in high heels.
As it was nearing the end of work in the afternoon, Chu Lingtian received a call from Guo Xiaoyan. She said a client had invited her to the bar street that evening to discuss cooperation, but she was afraid to go alone and wanted Chu Lingtian to accompany her. Chu Lingtian thought he had nothing else to do that evening, so he agreed.
After work, Chu Lingtian sent a message to Liu Bingxue saying he was waiting for her in the car in the basement, planning to take her home first before going to the bar street to meet Guo Xiaoyan. However, Liu Bingxue replied that she had to work overtime that night and asked Chu Lingtian to leave by himself, just leaving the car behind. To avoid suspicion and not cause any negative impact on Guo Xiaoyan at the company, Chu Lingtian chose not to leave the company with Guo Xiaoyan, but instead rode his bicycle to the bar street alone.
People cannot be judged by their appearance, nor can the sea be measured by a dipper. No one would have thought that the man riding a bicycle on the street would be the strongest soldier king in Longguo, a legendary figure known as the "Death Wolf King." When Chu Lingtian arrived at the entrance of the bar Guo Xiaoyan mentioned, he saw her at a glance. Guo Xiaoyan was wearing a floral slip dress, her hair in a ponytail, and white sneakers on her feet. Her pure and beautiful face, delicate and fair skin, long and slender legs, coupled with her voluptuous figure with a large bust and hips, made her look fresh, refined, and sexily alluring – an incomparable beauty.
"Brother Chu." Seeing Chu Lingtian approaching, Guo Xiaoyan happily ran forward and called out.
Chu Lingtian smiled and asked, "Has the client arrived?"
"The client just called saying they had an urgent matter and couldn't make it, so it's rescheduled for next time." Guo Xiaoyan replied with an embarrassed and slightly shy expression.
"Ah, then, then we..." Chu Lingtian was stunned. He had a hunch that Guo Xiaoyan hadn't invited any client to discuss cooperation that evening at all; it was just an excuse she made up to date him.
"Let's go into the bar and take a look. I've never been to a bar in my life." Guo Xiaoyan quickly added.
Chu Lingtian laughed, "Forget it. There's nothing much to see in a bar. It's just a bunch of lonely men and women drinking and chatting inside, posing and looking for someone to sleep with for the night."
"But I've already booked a table, and they said it can't be canceled..." Guo Xiaoyan looked dejected.
"Alright then, let's go in and sit for a while, have some snacks." Chu Lingtian nodded with a smile.
"Mmm-hmm." Seeing Chu Lingtian agree, Guo Xiaoyan nodded happily.
The two of them entered the bar one after another. Guo Xiaoyan had booked a small booth for four people. Night had already fallen, and the bar was getting more crowded, mostly young men and women. The men were all dressed handsomely, and the women were all dressed sexily. The perfume on them was quite strong. To attract the opposite sex, men and women alike used all sorts of methods in their dressing and makeup.
Before long, two cases of beer were placed on the glass table in front of Chu Lingtian and Guo Xiaoyan – one case of "Little Devil" and one case of the popular "1664," along with some snacks like peanuts, edamame, braised chicken feet, braised chicken legs, and grilled beef skewers.
"Wow, this is too extravagant. Xiaoyan, are you sure the two of us can finish it?" Chu Lingtian asked Guo Xiaoyan with a smile.
"These are all bar package deals bought online, and they can't be returned. We just have to eat and drink all of it, otherwise it would be such a waste," Guo Xiaoyan replied.
"Alright, then let's start digging in." As Chu Lingtian spoke, he took off his security uniform jacket and walked over to drape it over Guo Xiaoyan.
"Brother Chu, I'm not cold." Guo Xiaoyan said.
"The air conditioning in this bar is so strong. Be careful not to catch a cold. Put it on." Chu Lingtian's tone was very gentle.
Guo Xiaoyan felt warm inside and obediently nodded. At this moment, the male manager of the bar's main hall had been watching Chu Lingtian and Guo Xiaoyan. After observing for a while, he took out his phone and dialed a number, reporting respectfully: "Sister Rose, Chu Lingtian has brought a pure and beautiful young lady to our bar."
"Yes, yes, don't worry, I know what to do..."
