60 -60: Smiling Like a Blooming Flower
“Actually, our Fang Family can be considered a traditional Chinese medicine prominent clan,” Fang Bai said after setting down his glass with a smile.
“If Sister Xia ever needs it, you can come to me for cooperation.
I can provide you with beauty secrets that won’t be any worse than those from Rejuvenation Hall.”
Xia Chenyu thought Fang Bai was just joking with her and didn’t take it to heart, casually replying, “Sure!
If sister fails this time, I will definitely come to you, then use your beauty secrets to make a comeback!”
After a pause, she added, “When you go to Rejuvenation Hall to ask for money tomorrow, remember to call me.
I’ll come and give you support…”
Xia Chenyu’s tongue was a bit heavy from drinking, and her speech was already quite slurred.
As the two left the Four Seasons Spring Hotel, Xia Chenyu staggered, almost unable to walk straight, and Fang Bai had no choice but to support her all the way.
When they reached Xia Chenyu’s sports car, Fang Bai suddenly remembered something.
Chenyu had driven the car when they arrived, but now that she was so drunk, she definitely couldn’t drive away, and since he couldn’t drive, what should they do next?
After pondering for a while, Fang Bai had to vigorously shake the drowsy Xia Chenyu by the shoulders to ask for her address.
Once Xia Chenyu mumbled out her address, Fang Bai immediately hailed a taxi, stuffed her into the car, and sat next to her.
Xia Chenyu was so drunk that she lost consciousness, her body as limp as a boneless snake, collapsing in Fang Bai’s arms.
He had to wrap his arms around her to prevent her from slipping down.
Whether it was too much alcohol or something else, Xia Chenyu’s body was so hot it was like a ball of fire, making Fang Bai’s mouth parched and his heart race.
All along the way, the taxi driver occasionally glanced at Fang Bai and the drunken Xia Chenyu in the backseat through the rearview mirror, wearing a lewd expression on his face.
“This is my friend; she’s had a bit too much to drink, and I’m taking her home to rest,” Fang Bai quickly said, noticing the taxi driver stealing glances at them, realizing that the guy must’ve gotten the wrong idea.
What taking her home to rest!
It was clear as day that he had gotten her drunk to take her to a hotel room.
The driver had seen this kind of thing plenty of times; why bother hiding it?
Thinking thus, the taxi driver revealed a knowing smirk that said, “We’re both men here, I get it,” while internally he lamented how such a beautiful woman ended up with the likes of him, a classic case of a fine cabbage being dug up by a pig!
Seeing the taxi driver’s increasingly lascivious smirk, Fang Bai felt frustrated and knew that trying to explain would only make things worse, so he chose to stay silent.
“This woman is a stunner, and now she’s drunk too.
Being with her, anyone with poor self-control might indeed have difficulty suppressing some unsavory thoughts!”
Facing the beauty in his arms, Fang Bai had to admit he was also tempted, but believing himself to be the noble Immortal Venerable, if he wanted a woman, he would do so openly and honorably, not by taking advantage of someone’s vulnerability.
Xia Chenyu lived in a beautifully landscaped residential area, which was a somewhat famous wealthy district in Zhongzhou City, filled entirely with two-story row villas.
A villa here cost about ten million yuan, a bit of a luxury for the average citizen, but with a company under her belt and a single sports car worth millions, Fang Bai wasn’t surprised that Chenyu lived here.
Since the residential area didn’t allow taxis to enter, Fang Bai had to pay the fare, and under the scrutinizing gaze of the security guards and some residents, he carried Xia Chenyu horizontally into the community.
It took some effort to find the villa where Xia Chenyu lived.
He fished out a set of keys from her red handbag and after much effort, finally managed to open the gate.
Inside was a small courtyard with many potted flowers and plants.
A chubby white cat was napping in the midday sun.
Seeing someone enter, it merely turned its head for a glance, then stretched lazily and continued its big sleep.
Entering the living room, the room had a European-style villa layout and was spotless.
All things were neatly arranged, with a faint, pleasant scent lingering in the air.
It was evident that Xia Chenyu loved cleanliness.
The bedroom was on the second floor, and upon opening the door, one could smell a woman’s unique fragrance.
A heart-shaped red bed was situated in the center of the room.
Next to the south-facing window stood a dressing table, with a photograph of a woman on it.
The woman in the photo bore some resemblance to Xia Chenyu, but was obviously older, with a look of melancholy between her brows as if she harbored unsolvable worries.
Fang Bai knew this woman must be Xia Chenyu’s mother.
After entering the bedroom and dropping Xia Chenyu onto the soft bed, Fang Bai finally let out a sigh of relief as if he had shed a heavy burden.
Xia Chenyu lay on the bed in an unseemly position, some parts of her half-hidden and half-exposed, provoking a nosebleed-inducing sight.
Fang Bai smiled wryly, squatted down and took off her high heels, then straightened her body and casually pulled the blanket over her.
“Sister Xia, your car is parked at the hotel.
When you wake up, go get it yourself.
I wish your Beauty Company success.
If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me, and I will help you find a solution.”
Fang Bai found some paper and a pen, left these few words behind, took a deep look at Xia Chenyu, gently closed the door, and strode away.
As the sound of the front door closing reached her ears, the corners of Xia Chenyu’s mouth, who had been feigning deep sleep on the bed, twitched slightly, and then her eyes slowly opened.
She hopped off the bed, stood barefoot in front of the window, and drew the curtains that Fang Bai had closed, leaving a small gap.
Her gaze fell on the departing figure of Fang Bai.
Watching Fang Bai’s retreating back, Xia Chenyu’s lips suddenly curled into a smile, which gradually broadened until it bloomed brightly.
The sunlight shone on her face, her cheeks still flushed, with a lingering hint of inebriation in her eyes.
Xia Chenyu indeed had drunk a good amount, but not enough to be unconscious.
From the beginning to the end, she maintained some clarity of mind.
The dead-drunk act was all a pretense.
She was very keen on befriending Fang Bai, but her early experiences made it difficult for her to fully trust someone, so she played a little smart to test Fang Bai’s character.
If Fang Bai had taken advantage of her drunken state to possess her, she would have kicked him out without hesitation, later given him some money as a token of gratitude for saving her, and then they would have parted ways indefinitely, never to cross paths again.
Suffice to say, it was an outcome Xia Chenyu did not want to see.
Fortunately, that did not happen, and the results of the test left her overwhelmingly happy.
Xia Chenyu stood by the window, her smile blooming like flowers.
After stepping out of Xia Chenyu’s villa, Fang Bai also revealed a hint of a smile on his lips.
He knew that Xia Chenyu was not drunk.
Whether one is intoxicated or not changes their breathing frequency, heart rate, blood flow and so on, and with Fang Bai’s sharp senses, these were changes he could not be deceived by.
