Chapter 850 Ritual

Chapter 850 Ritual

Hyson had two black lines on his forehead when he heard Li Xinxin's nonsense. He truly thought he got a 'normal' manager but how was it possible that anyone around him could be 'normal'? He wasn't normal himself at this point.

He tsked to himself when he noticed how Li Xinxin was not only seriously admiring the drink before her but also taking her phone to click a hundred photos from different angles. He really couldn't understand this behavior.

"Sister Xin, you... Restrain yourself a little," he couldn't help but say. "I can almost see you drooling."

Li Xinxin tsked at him, "What do you know? You're handsome yourself. So, it doesn't matter to you. It's different for me. I don't get to see such a visual feast every day."

"You work in the entertainment industry," reminded Hyson.

"And you think those white-faced beauties can compare with this Xiao Gege? Think again!" With a dreamy look in her eyes, she looked toward the green-eyed man and went on, "He's so tall and handsome as hell. He's so bad but he does it so well~"

Hyson's jaw dropped when he heard her humming these lyrics.

Li Xinxin noticed his reaction and instantly covered his ears saying, "I'm a sinner. How can I taint your innocent soul? Just forget what I said."

Hyson pushed her hands away, "You really know how to talk once you're drunk."

Li Xinxin cleared her throat and finally picked up the drink before her, as she took a sip, her eyes dazzled with an obsessive light, "Not only the person is handsome, this drink is a masterpiece. What is this exactly?" Even though she asked it, she wasn't really looking for an answer as she took another small sip and savored it in her mouth before swallowing it.

Hyson found her reaction to be a little too exaggerated. But what could be done about that? He shook his head and bit the straw in his mouth. Slowly, he took a sip of the lemonade and then paused. He looked at the lemonade glass again in thought. Wasn't it just an ordinary lemonade? Why did it taste so good?

He suddenly looked at Li Xinxin who was still sipping slowly on that pink masterpiece of a drink before her and wondered if she was really exaggerating because of the filter she wore or was the drink really that good? Shrugging to himself, he went back to drinking his lemonade.

"Cousin, are you dying?"

Hyson heard the voice of that Young Master from the side. Although they were a distance away, the bar was currently empty so he could still faintly hear their voices.

"Are you cursing me, Ru?" asked the other man.

"Blimey! How can you think about me like that? I'm utterly gutted right now."

The other man snickered, "As if it's that easy to hurt your feelings. Forget about that, what are you doing here?"

"I'm here on official business, Cousin Zhu Jie!" replied Young Master Ru.

"Just say it's confidential," replied Zhu Jie.

"Don't get your knickers in a twist now!" There was a small pause, "By the way, I'm serious. You really look like you're dying. It's not like you became the father the first time, why do you look so knackered?"

"When we had the twins, it wasn't this difficult," answered Zhu Jie. "Most of the time, neither of us had to keep watch. If little Juan even cried, Bao'er would just put her to sleep. But now... I feel like I'm gonna lose my mind."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. It's hard being a father."

"You're enjoying it way too much."

"If you're in misery, how can I not be entertained by it? Don't give me that look. You already know I'm that kind of a nutter."

Hyson's lips curled up when he heard this amusing discussion. Well, it wasn't really amusing but he found it amusing. And he suddenly wondered if Raelle hadn't lost the baby what would have happened? Would she also be so tired after having the baby that he'd enjoy seeing her misery? This thought actually made him smile for a moment before his smile vanished and a melancholy settled in with reality's slap.

The child was gone. He didn't know how long he had to wait to see Raelle's baby. More than that, he was curious about Raelle as a mother. He definitely thought it'd be a sight to see that straightface beauty holding a cute little baby and coaxing it to sleep.

"Hyson, why are you smiling one moment and frowning the next moment?" asked Li Xinxin.

Hyson looked at her, "Even if I tell you, you won't understand it right now."

"Oh," she pouted and added, "Then let me continue my ritual."

Hyson's lips twitched, "Which cult did you join?"

"The cult to worship the beauty! Fuck that bastard! Who cares about his opinions? His family wants him to marry then whatever! He can go ahead and fuck himself!"

Hyson actually put his fingers in his ears to stop himself from listening to the long curses that came out of Li Xinxin's mouth. He would have never thought he'd get to hear this. She looked so cultured but when it came to cursing, she was really like a shrew now. This refreshed his viewpoint.

Hyson could feel that the other people in the bar were not looking at them, he tipped down his hat and tried to distance himself from his manager who was still cursing her boyfriend. Although she said a lot of nonsense, he still got the gist. Since he was an expert at spouting nonsense, he also understood nonsense better than others.

So, the gist was that her boyfriend's family was sending him on blind dates because they wanted him to marry while Li Xinxin wasn't ready to settle down and build a family at this time of her career. Because of this she had a huge fight with her boyfriend and now wanted to drink to forget everything.
