77 Chapter 77 : Hold Hands

Pierre helped Xiulan carry the ten paper bags and they went inside a newly built Japanese tea shop inside UU mall.

The interior was spectacularly very traditional and Zen. She didn't expect a shop like this exist inside a mall. 

The tea house staff immediately bowed when they saw Pierre. They also helped him carry the paper bags. Like royalty, they served the both of them so preciously. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

It's noticeable that they were bowing too much and didn't even try to look in their eyes. From their body movement, Pierre is someone they don't want to offend.

While they walk inside one of the Zen rooms, Xiulan noticed that some staff tried to block some customers from entering the shop and they kept apologizing and bowing. Some customers that are about to leave their rooms were blocked too. It was very suspicious sight to encounter.

"Is this normal in a tea house? I've been to a lot of tea houses before for meeting purposes, but they were never this cautious. Why are they blocking customers?" Xiulan asked Pierre when they finally sat on pillow seats and no staff in sight. She really thought the service was too weird. Usually, servers will try to be friendly and welcoming. But in this tea shop, they tried their best not to interact much with them.

Pierre only smiled and his handsome face glowed. He decisively answered, "I own this place. Whenever I'm here, I don't want to see any of the ugly customers' face."

Xiulan quickly stared back at him and furrowed her brows. "This little bastard, why didn't he said he owns this place in the first place? And what does he mean by that? Isn't he too mean?" She would have declined his offer to drink tea here. She's in dangerous territory.

Pierre giggled seeing her reaction. He can already guess what this peculiar woman was thinking.

Xiulan really has a bad judgment over this pretty boy. He always laugh and smile on little things. He also has a knack of saying mean things so easily. It's actually disturbing.

Pierre took off his sunglasses and cap. He fixed his fluffy platinum blond hair and smirked at Xiulan while he's at it.

Xiulan felt another wave of irritation seeing that smirk on his face. "He has the same annoying smile like that haughty husband. They really have some strong brotherhood for them to have the same smile and attitude."

"What do you want to talk about, Mr. Han?" Xiulan started when the tea and desserts were finally served. She's not here to spend and waste too much time. She sips on her tea and looked at the suspicious friend of Hongqi.

"I only wanted to meet and talk to brother Hongqi's dear wife. I have heard a lot about you during my admission in the hospital. You sure have a very interesting career and background." He praised and he pulled out a mirror with amazing carved swans and flowers at the back of it. He started fixing his hair and checked his face if there were any dirt or scratches.

"Where did that mirror come from? It's so pretty." Xiulan complimented. She can't help but stare at the beautiful mirror. Though she find it weird that a mirror suddenly appeared.

"The staff gave this a while ago. I always have a mirror anywhere so I can look at my handsome face. Oh! By the way, can you see any problems on my face?" He arrogantly asked and innocently looked at her. He was obviously fishing for compliments. He has that prince syndrome and again, it irritated Xiulan so much.

"No, young master Han. You are perfect." Xiulan gave up and just go with the flow. She wanted to leave this place. They only talked for a few minutes yet this man's arrogant attitude was already seeping. How can she leave this narcissistic bastard?

He giggled again and this time he also snorted. He has a lot of private jokes and he doesn't have any reservations in hiding them. Xiulan is itching to hit this rude narcissistic bastard.

"This is my face before." Pierre showed his face way before it was burnt through his expensive mobile phone. Xiulan looked at it and glanced at his face to see the difference. She can't find what was missing or any difference.

"I don't see any difference." Xiulan honestly muttered.

"YES! Oh yes! Gosh!" Pierre excitedly exclaimed and even held Xiulan's hands from his excitement. His mood suddenly became too delighted. 

Xiulan sweated from this sudden closeness and beaming mood. "Uhmm... you're too close."

Pierre ignored what she just said and continued his excitement.

"You know, I've been on hiatus for three years. My face burned from an acid accident. I hired the most amazing plastic surgeons just to get my face back. Now that you said that there's no difference, I am very happy! Really, really happy! It just means I hired the best." He was genuinely happy. It took him ten plastic surgeons and even killed three of them because they didn't do their job right.

"It's good that you are happy. You can let go of my hand now." Xiulan said and tried to pull her hand. She's very uncomfortable when another man held her hands. He was also too close.

"You really have soft hands. What's your skincare? You know, my brother Hongqi likes girls who are vain and fashionable. I actually don't understand why he married you. Other than being Song Yingpei's youngest daughter, you look really dull and conservative." He complimented her yet he said something very ambiguously rude again. He kept squeezing her delicate small hands like it was something he was allowed to do.

"Excuse me, young master Han, but are you trying to pick a fight with me? You are being rude to me ever since we talked." Xiulan can't help but voice out her irritation. Today seems to be a very bad day for her. She lost her cool just like that. She usually tries to make sure that she will never snarl on people she just met but today was an exception. This Han Pierre was a total douchebag!

"Of course not. I'm just saying the truth here." Pierre nonchalantly responded. He didn't understand why she suddenly snapped at him like that. Usually, women would tolerate him until the end. But this Song Xiulan sure has her fangs ready to bite him if he tries to offend her again.

"Hongqi said she was nice and cooperative. He doesn't date this type of woman." He secretly remarked.

"If you don't like me, just say so. You don't need to be this rude. I think I need to leave. It looks like we don't need to talk about anything." Xiulan was about to stand up but since Pierre was still holding her hand, she pulled her to sit again. 

Xiulan's really angry now. How can this man just pull her like that?

"Oh no! I like you very much. Has Hongqi seen this feisty side of yours?" Pierre displayed his handsome smile again that would always work to coax women. He also realized this is the first time after three years that he held a woman's hand outside the bedroom. It was a very refreshing feeling.
