Xie Fengmian swallowed and said, “Since when did you two…”

Xie Xize adjusted his glasses, which had been knocked off balance by Mo Yangyang. He still had his dapper appearance, leaving aside the woman in his arms. 

He raised his head and said something that did not suit his appearance, “Don’t you think you’re disturbing us?”

“I…”

Xie Xize glanced at Mo Yangyang. The woman was very drunk as she leaned on Xie Xize’s chest. She seemed rather dainty, enticing men to treat her tenderly!

Xie Fengmian suddenly realized how pretty Mo Yangyang was despite her despicable personality. No wonder his fifth uncle, who always behaved himself like a Daoist immortal, would fall for her!

Mo Yangyang had no clue about what was happening. She looked at Xie Xize with squinting eyes and pulled his collar, messing up his clean, wrinkleless shirt.

Mo Yangyang said, “I…I know you…you don’t like me… but I…I still like you…can we…tonight…mm…”

Xie Xize covered Mo Yangyang’s mouth with his hand.

Xie Fengmian was utterly shocked. His fifth uncle was finally descending to the mundane world for once! 

He immediately asked, “Fifth uncle… do you want me to arrange a hotel for you?”

Xie Xize lifted his gaze.

Xie Fengmian said, “Alright, I’m leaving now!” He quickly left without any hesitation.

He took a few steps and took out his phone. He unlocked it and opened WeChat, finding the group chat of his family.

The eldest grandchild of the Xie Family: Grandpa, grandma, dad, mum, second uncle, fourth uncle, my fifth uncle is finally hooking up with a woman. I saw it in person. He was hugging a woman. He might finally behave like a normal human tonight!

His phone kept ringing with notifications…

The message had stirred up a huge wave. Everyone in the group chat was going crazy!

Lan Dongzhi was a little worried about Mo Yangyang. She went looking for her after she was done with her customers. 

She happened to see Mo Yangyang falling into Xie Xize’s arms, and quickly hid in a corner.

Lan Dongzhi slowly moved closer to hear what they were saying. She wanted to see if she could rescue Mo Yangyang from the deep trouble she was in.

She heard Xie Xize’s cold voice, “Are you sure I’m the person you’re looking for?”

Mo Yangyang said, “Of…of course it’s you. I can recognize you even…even if you turn into ashes…there’s no way I…I will make a mistake…can you…fulfill my little wish? Please?”

Xie Xize said, “Sure.”

Lan Dongzhi almost had an urge to hit her head on the wall.

She closed her eyes and cursed, “F**k, that idiot Mo Yangyang, how did she even recognize the wrong person!?”

I asked you to look for Xie Fengmian, but you went to look for his uncle instead. How stupid were you!?

Lan Dongzhi suddenly felt a chill running down her spine, as if something dangerous had set its eyes on her. She trembled in fear.

She looked up and saw Xie Xize.

He was standing under dim light. If there was no one in his arms, Lan Dongzhi might think she had stumbled onto a Daoist immortal.

But…

The look in his eyes was not friendly at all. Lan Dongzhi could even feel a layer of frost forming on her skin.

She swallowed and combed her hair with her hand, even though it was perfect. She left calmly, as if nothing had happened.

Mo Yangyang, I did try to save you, but there’s no way I can save you from Xie Xize. Good luck! 

Lan Dongzhi recalled that people always described how noble and upright Fifth Elder Xie was. She assumed Mo Yangyang was going to be fine.

Or so she hoped!
