In fact, he had encountered similar instances before with other men who liked the same gender.
Some tactfully backed off after polite refusal while some were insistent. His experience when warding off the insistent ones were not something to remember.
Dang, if this person was a woman, William would have 'played' with her happily after the other party gave him those suggestive glances. However, the other was clearly a man, and William did not swing that way. He liked using his dragon for the ladies, ah! He did not want to be poked!
"Sir William, do you need some water? You look pale." King Yan was sincerely worried.
There was a bottle of water prepared in the car. He took it out and passed it to William.
William had no choice but to accept the other's kindness. After all, the man was really being nice. He answered dully, "I am... just carsick.." Then his eyes went to King Yan's elegant cream suit.
William's face turned (-﹏-;) again.
How come their suits looked like they were made for each other? If they arrived at the same time in the venue, people would think that they deliberately dressed up like this!
The overthinking William suggested tactfully. "I will take a rest here for a while. You better go ahead."
King Yan shook his head. "I won't abandon my companion. It's fine to wait for you for a bit more. You've done a lot for IHZHI, this is nothing at all." His smile was gentle and warm.
William: "..."
Bro, please, just get lost! We're really not meant for each other!
William chugged the bottle of water as if he was drinking wine.
King Yan once again 'studied' him intently, especially the way the throat knot rolled as he swallowed...
William could not take it anymore. He was extremely sensitive to other's people presence.
"King Yan, I'll be forward. I hope you don't get offended. You seem to have misunderstandings about me. I don't swing that way. My orientation is straight. I prefer to use my dragon and be on top of a woman," William said straightforwardly. He respected the other'spreference. But it could not be him.
After a long pause, King Yan nnodded, sighing. He was not offended or anything. Compared to other men from his own country, William was already very polite.
Why was it so hard to find a good partner? He thought sadly.
"I understand. But if you change your mind... you can still use your dragon and be on top of--"
"Ah, don't say it, I beg you!" William exclaimed as he tried to 'run' away and save his v.i.r.g.i.nal ears.
One thing he did not like about himself at times like this was that he possessed a very active mind wherein he could imagine an expanse of things on the spot.
What King Yan was saying was already playing in his mind!
Ah!!!! My v.i.r.g.i.nal straight mind!!!
This made him fl.u.s.tered. No good... he should see a woman and overlap a woman's figure in his mind right now!
As he was walking fast without a thought, a car almost rammed into him inside the parking lot.
William was stunned. It was a good thing the car stopped a couple of meters away.
The luxurious car was tinted and William could not see the driver inside. He just bowed sincerely as an apology, imitating the oriental way of apologizing. But then the door opened and the voice of a woman sounded in the air.
"Mr. Jang, just park the car there first and contact my sister. I will walk from here. I heard Jang Shin is on his way. I am planning to meet him first."
William's eyes brightened when he saw the silhouette of a woman.
The slender right leg was stretched outside, followed by another. William could see the long and smooth legs of the woman.
His eyes sparkled. The earlier scary thoughts flew away
As a master, William knew that the pair of legs might appear slender, but if one looked closely, the smooth yet firm muscles made the shapely legs the most perfect creation of gods.
Those legs contained power and at the same time, poise.
(E/N: Wow, as expected of the Casanova, such a description for a woman's legs)
His eyes brightened.
A woman with a great figure!
The tall woman dolled up in an amber halter dress with a long slit on one side came out of the car.
Her long hair was pulled up into a high woven braid then was left cascading in waves down her back, revealing her slender neck and straight posture. She wore a pair of champagne tourmaline stud earrings which matched with her bracelet.
William's eyes that were staring at the most perfect legs he had ever seen swept up to the woman's slim but flexible waist, to her full and ample chest, then her slender yet lean arms, to her smooth swan neck, and finally settled on her pretty face.
...A vibrant rose who seemed full of life and power.
William's heart thumped.
The woman was not extremely beautiful compared to the top beauties he had dated before. If he was to describe it, she had a seductive yet handsome beauty.
William had not met this kind of beauty before. S.e.xy, stunning, yet heroic.
A beauty that was majestic.
William found her familiar, but at the same time, the novelty of meeting this gorgeous woman, a type of beauty he had not gotten his hands on yet, switched on the naughty Casanova in him.
William immediately appeared in front of the woman when she turned around.
"This beautiful lady, I can't believe a woman as gorgeous as you doesn't have an escort by your side. Will you give me the honor?"
William offered his hand. He gave her his most handsome smile.
A captivating man in a white suit stood in front of the woman, looking picturesque.
Tang Xinyang: "..."
A gorgeous woman?
She turned around to check who this foreign man was referring to.
William saw her small movement. This made him smile.
Was the lady trying to be humble or was she too starstruck that he, William Grand, the man coveted by both men and women, chose her as today's companion?
William took the opportunity to 'receive' her hand and was about to kiss it.
But Tang Xinyang was shocked after seeing the man dare to touch her hand. She immediately reacted in defense.
She held his hand, twisted, dragged him forward, and grabbed his arm tightly.
William was stunned with the woman's sudden provocation. He thought first that the woman was being too straightforward for their first meeting, but when he felt the slight pain on his arm, his eyes flashed.
She was not pulling him for a hug or a kiss, rather, she was trying to immobilize him.
This was not an ordinary person!
As a master of martial arts, William's instincts kicked in.
He put his weight on his leg and swiftly turned around. He was planning to go behind her and catch her off guard. However, he was against Tang Xinyang, a martial arts addict.
Tang Xinyang's eyes lit up in surprise.
'That is a good move.'
As William moved behind her, she bent her knees slightly and clenched the man's arm she was holding. Then she used her other hand to pull him and throw him over her shoulder.
William was surprised with the woman's strength.
Such huge strength for a woman. She could flip him over with no problem!
William was thrown up, but with quick movements, he held onto the haltered strap at the back of Tang Xinyang's neck to get her as well.
Tang Xinyang was stunned by the man's quick reaction. If this went on, the strap of her dress would snap and her attire would be ruined!
She had a spare in the car but it would take time to change and she might miss Jang Shin.
With no other choice, she used qigong, which she only used when she was in a precarious situation.
William now confirmed that this woman was truly not ordinary, but at least she was not an assassin. If she was, she would have already attacked all out earlier.
There were very few women who could go to the Tang's privately held occasion who also happened to have an ability to use qigong. William knew a few. With this, he let got of the strap and simply allowed Tang Xinyang to throw him down to the ground.
Thud!
As William had expected, it was really painful when his back rammed to the cold ground.
"Ugh..."
His arm and his back were aching.
Tang Xinyang did not stop there. Since this man dared to attack him, she would not easily let him go. Besides, this man had great ability and he might be someone sent by the Tang family's enemies. She needed to catch and interrogate him.
When Tang Xinyang's long legs was about to hit William's stomach, William immediately used his qigong, rolled sideways then jumped up, and backed away to distance himself. In a blink of an eye, he was standing once more in front of Tang Xinyang.
Seeing the aggressive look in the other's eyes, William hastily raised his hands.
"Hold on, Eldest Young Miss Tang. Forgive me for earlier, I did not know your identity and I mistook you for someone who is in need of a companion. I am one of your guests for tonight's concert."
While he spoke, William patted away the dust on his white suit.
Tang Xinyang did not believe him immediately. Her guard was up.
How could someone who had great abilities in martial arts coincidentally 'greet' her in this place?
