Chapter 88 - YOUNG MASTER XU

INSIDE a private box of a high-end bar in B City, five young men were sitting inside with beautiful women at their side.  The most eye-catching of the group was the man sitting at the very center.  His black hair was slightly longer than usual, the tail end was tied with a simple black band.  The color of his eyes were comparable to a very rich chocolate.  A silver cross was dangling on his left ear.  The corner of his lips was tilted in a slight arc, as if he had some kind of secret and anyone who looked at him couldn't help but want to know what it was.

He was giving off some kind of unprecedented dark charm.  So even if he's not the most handsome man in the room, people still couldn't help but look at him first.  He's like a talking and walking bag of pheromone. 

The young man's name was Xu Ru.

"Young Master Xu, please have a drink," said the woman sitting beside Xu Ru, gently putting the glass of wine she just poured in front of him.  She leaned towards him, her soft bosom touching his arm.

Xu Ru looked down, the woman's chest was almost spilling out from the tight black dress she's wearing.  He smiled and drank the wine.  It made his lips even redder.  "Thank you, my sweet."  

The young woman's face turned red, her heart beating wildly.  Young Master Xu was really the best out of all the gold master she'd been with.  It would be good if their relationship could truly turn into something real.  It wouldn't only help her career but it would set her for life.  After all, she'd be the wife of the only heir to Xu family.

She fluttered her eyelashes, acting all shy.  Then she hugged Xu Ru's arm, making sure that her chest would be pressed against it.  "Young Master…"

Xu Ru only glanced at her and tactically removed his arm from her grasp.  It's probably time to change to a new one.  

This girl was just an 18th-line star he met when he visited their family's entertainment company.  She 'accidentally' tripped in front of him and also 'accidentally' fell in his arms.  He found it interesting.  So he decided to indulged her for a bit.  But she's starting to get really clingy.  One of the characteristics he's definitely not looking for in a play mate.  

This one was no good too, huh.  

He'd just ask Uncle An to give her some role in a TV drama or movie as compensation.

"Ah, Xu Ru is really lucky, to have a beauty like Wen Wen by your side," one of the young men around said.

The girl, Wen Wen, blushed again.  "I'm luckier to be by Young Master's side."

"But Xu Ru, how come you haven't played much lately?  Don't tell me you're really taking that Arcadia game seriously?" one other said, his voice with a hint of mockery.

Xu Ru glanced at the one who just spoke.  There was still a charming smile on his lips but his pair of dark chocolate eyes were full of dangerous glint.  "Since when did you become in charge of the things that I'm doing?"

"Now, now, I'm sure Zhao Shi didn't mean it," another one said, trying to pacify the situation.  "He's just frustrated because his younger brother is getting addicted to that game." 

"Then his brother has better taste than him," Xu Ru said with a taunting smile.  He stood up.  "Ah, I suddenly don't feel like partying anymore.  I'll leave you guys to it."

"Young Master I'll go with you—"

Wen Wen wasn't able to continue what she was about to say because of the cold glance that Xu Ru gave her.

Xu Ru bent down and kissed her cheek.  "I'll send a driver to take you home.  So just obediently wait here, okay?"

Wen Wen could only say, "O-okay."  

Xu Ru went out of the private box despite the objection of the other four men.  He wondered why he even bothered to go here.  He knew these people would just want to suck up to him anyway.  It's because his family was very prominent in B City.  And he's their only young master.

The Xu family during his grandfather's generation was involved in underground businesses.  They only started to slowly white wash their businesses when his father took over.  But most of their businesses right now were still in the gray area.  And their relationship to the underground world was still pretty strong.

That was an open secret to everyone in B City's high society.  Those families belonging to old money, thinking that their blood was blue, looked down on them.  And those start-up families simply feared them.    

Xu Ru snorted.  What boring people.

He went to the parking lot and get in his red Lamborghini.  Ah he wished he just spent time with Qin Rushi instead.  It would be more fun teasing her.

Speaking of, when he was about to start the car, he suddenly received a forum link from the person he was just thinking about.

[Is this the person you told me about last time?  You're right, he's indeed interesting.]

Below that was the forum link.  Xu Ru clicked it.  He first read about the 'shameless trio who were deceiving newbies'.  And then was attracted by the top comment.  It was a video.

He played it and it showed how that white-haired elf manage to trick those shameless trio.  When he was done watching, he couldn't help but let out a huge laugh.

He sent a message to Qin Rushi.  [Princess, are you now convince on making him part of our team?]

Because Xu Ru certainly was.

A few seconds later, he received a reply.  [A bit.  But still not enough.]

Xu Ru only laughed more.  This precocious girl.

Shen Ji Yun took his luggage from the conveyor belt.  He looked around the airport. After two weeks out of the country, he's finally back.

"Ji Yun, let's go," his uncle called to him.

"Yes," he said and followed his uncle.

As they walked, he suddenly saw a girl holding onto a rabbit stuff toy.  He stared intently at the rabbit toy.  And another rabbit come to mind.

Shen Ji Yun wondered what that rabbit was doing now.
