Chapter 245: Chapters 255-256, I’m Her Friend
If CEO Shen Binnan wasn’t around, Huo Xiaoxuan might show her fearless side, ready to say anything.
But now, with Shen Binnan present, Huo Xiaoxuan seemed much more reserved, much more gentle, even shy.
Sitting in the back seat, Huo Xiaoxuan was fidgeting a lot, quite unlike her usual bold manner, and said very ladylike, "I’ll listen to Sister Yan."
Ding Miaoyan gave the girl a white eye, "Weren’t you very brave before? Why have you become so timid now?" She found it somewhat amusing but wouldn’t spoil Huo Xiaoxuan’s show and said, "Here, CEO Shen is in charge, we’ll listen to whatever CEO Shen says."
Now it was Fang Yi’s turn to find it funny. As he drove, he looked over at Shen Binnan in the passenger seat and said, "Like boss, like employee, huh. You really kicked the ball over... Where do you want to go?"
The moment he said that, Ding Miaoyan and Huo Xiaoxuan in the back seat exchanged looks. Huo Xiaoxuan playfully stuck out her tongue.
"I don’t mind," Shen Binnan said, passing the decision back to Fang Yi.
Since that’s what was said, Fang Yi didn’t hold back, "You say you don’t mind, but don’t blame me later when we arrive at our destination."
Shen Binnan replied, "Do you plan on selling us off or something?"
Fang Yi chuckled, "Selling you three beauties? I wouldn’t bear to."
From the back seat, Huo Xiaoxuan slightly stood up, stuck out her bottom, and leaned towards Fang Yi, "Do you not bear to part with me or Sister Yan?"
Fang Yi said, "I can’t bear to part with either of you."
Huo Xiaoxuan said, "But it’s a lawful society now, good things can’t come in pairs, are you thinking of starting a harem?"
Fang Yi laughed, "Emperors had their three palaces and six courtyards; if they could do it, why can’t I? Huo Xiaoxuan, I’ll make you an empress, how about that?"
Huo Xiaoxuan blinked her watery eyes and said, "That’s not entirely impossible, but you’d have to give me a betrothal gift. Don’t say I’m ripping you off, if you buy ’Angel’s Tears’ for me, I’ll marry you."
The car swerved slightly, and Fang Yi almost drove onto the safety island.
"Really?"
"...Of course it’s real. I, Huo Xiaoxuan, can assure you with a pat on the chest, I never lie," said Huo Xiaoxuan earnestly.
Fang Yi, who was driving, suddenly felt the need to take a trip abroad, to revisit that place where he once lived; it seemed that among the diamonds he had stolen, there was one called the Angel’s Tears.
Driving through Moon City, Fang Yi passed the largest night market, not far from the university where Luo Xin was, known as Red Light Night Market.
After passing the subway and reaching the entrance to the night market, Fang Yi looked left and right, found a parking spot amidst the crowded traffic, and parked the car.
Getting out of the car, Shen Binnan looked at the crowded night market, frowned slightly, but said nothing.
"Let’s settle here, ladies. Any objections?" Fang Yi said with a smile.
"...I’ll still listen to CEO Shen," Huo Xiaoxuan said very ladylike, but the bright light was already sparkling in her big, expressive eyes.
Fang Yi looked at Ding Miaoyan and received the expected reply; she smiled sweetly and said, "I’ll also listen to CEO Shen."
So, Fang Yi finally turned to Shen Binnan.
Shen Binnan calmly said, "It’s the same wherever we eat, as long as the food isn’t poisonous."
Since we’re already here, there’s no need to leave.
Besides, Shen Binnan had a secret unknown to others—all her life, she had never been to a night market to eat. With her family’s wealthy status, it was simply unthinkable for them to eat at a night market.
Thus, Shen Binnan felt a strange urge at that moment, wanting to go in and give it a try.
With no objections, Fang Yi took the lead, and the three beauties followed him into the night market.
As everyone knows, the night market is always bustling, packed with food stalls one after another, not to mention the street vendors selling clothes, jewelry, dollar stores, and so on.
The night market is a place for the average consumer. It’s bustling every night, and with summer in full swing, the allure of an evening stroll makes the market even more crowded.
Fang Yi led the way at the front, while Shen Binnan walked in the middle, with Ding Miaoyan and Huo Xiaoxuan following behind, ensuring Binnan was protected in the center.
Ding Miaoyan and Huo Xiaoxuan had been to the Red Light Night Market before and were indifferent to the scene. Huo Xiaoxuan, in particular, eyed the variety of street foods with drooling interest. If it weren’t for the fear of losing face in front of their boss, she probably would have pounced on them already.
After a challenging walk, even Fang Yi was sweating. They found a hotpot stand and entered an erected tent, settling around a square table.
Shen Binnan’s fair forehead was dotted with light sweat, and despite her icy facade, there was a faint blush on her cheeks. And as for Huo Xiaoxuan, her slightly chubby face was already flushed red.
"Um... Director Shen, you and Fang Yi can sit for a while, and Sister Yan and I will go buy some other things?" Huo Xiaoxuan tentatively suggested.
"Okay." Shen Binnan nodded slightly.
So Huo Xiaoxuan immediately dragged Ding Miaoyan away.
Now, just the two of them remained. Shen Binnan glanced at the few tables of people eating in the tent, then at the endless stream of people outside, and finally looked at Fang Yi, "Do you often come to places like this to eat?"
Fang Yi shook his head with a smile, "Not often, but after having too much exotic cuisine in restaurants, it’s nice to change up the taste."
Shen Binnan eyed the square table and frowned.
Fang Yi chuckled, "Do you find it too dirty?"
Shen Binnan’s response was off-topic, "Just this once, not to make a habit of it."
Fang Yi lit a cigarette, stood up, and went to the busy owner, requesting a large serving—the works with duck meat, braised meat, just throw it all in, but make sure it’s enough for everyone.
Just as Fang Yi finished placing the order, he suddenly saw Huo Xiaoxuan and Ding Miaoyan rushing back through the crowd, with several men following them.
Spotting Fang Yi, Huo Xiaoxuan rushed to wave him down, yelling, "Help! Help us!"
Fang Yi broke into a sweat—this Huo Xiaoxuan really knew how to find trouble.
Huo Xiaoxuan and Ding Miaoyan charged into the tent and hid behind Fang Yi as if they were eaglets hiding behind an eagle when danger approached. They considered Fang Yi a safe harbor, immune to whatever came their way.
The group of men caught up, with a leather-clad guy at the front, his face livid with anger. Judging by their outfits and behavior, they were clearly the kind of troublemakers who frequently caused disturbances on the streets.
The leather-clad man, seeing the two women hiding behind Fang Yi, glared at him and raised his chin arrogantly, "Kid, I’d advise you not to play the hero, or you’re going to end up in a world of pain."
Fang Yi flashed a small smile and said, "I’m not a hero, I’m just their friend."
