Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Flirting and Provoking

Fifteen minutes later, in the VIP room of Qingliao Night Bar.

Jiang Man and Wu Yingfan were staring each other down.

Especially Wu Yingfan, who looked as though he had swallowed something disgusting while eyeing the young men standing in front of them for their selection.

"This one isn’t bad, such solid muscles, heh heh."

JOJO wobbled over and got handsy with one of the male models, squeezing his muscles.

"This one’s good too, I like the pretty boys."

She then moved to the side of a fair-faced male model and hooked his chin with her finger.

"Manman, are we really doing this?" Wu Yingfan asked with an embarrassed expression.

Jiang Man crossed her legs arrogantly and coolly, raising an eyebrow, "She’s one of our own, why not spoil her a bit?"

Wu Yingfan massaged his brow.

Some excitement it seemed, was better left unjoined.

"This one, this one, and this one—I’m taking them all!" JOJO claimed three of the male models in one go.

The manager was over the moon, smiling as he instructed his staff to bring over the champagne and fine wines.

He turned respectfully towards Jiang Man, sensing she was the most authoritative of the trio, "Madam, and you?"

"I don’t want any," Jiang Man said coldly.

The manager nodded with a smile, then turned to Wu Yingfan, "And sir, would you like a male or female companion..."

"Of course it’s the ladies! Fuck, do I look like I swing that way?"

"No, no, of course not, please wait," the manager bowed and scraped with a smile.

"Manman, you know I never come to places like this, tonight couldn’t be helped, I’ll just make do," Wu Yingfan said, the picture of chasteness and reluctant participation.

Jiang Man lazily raised an eyebrow, smiling without a word.

...

Half an hour later.

The room was filled with noise and excitement.

Wu Yingfan was beaming, hugged from both sides, his face covered in lipstick marks.

The female companions were making him incredibly happy, popping champagne after champagne.

JOJO was no better, sitting on the lap of a male companion, being fed drinks by another.

In such an environment, Jiang Man was like a stoic sage, unruffled, absorbed in her gaming.

Halfway through, she went to the restroom.

In the next VIP room, Song Xiao and a group of his rowdy friends were toasting and drinking.

He had been troubled these days because of He Xiuyan.

He wanted to break up with He Xiuyan; she reacted with tears and tantrums, and finally took sleeping pills and attempted suicide, ending up in the hospital.

Thankfully, she was rescued in time and her life was saved.

Fearing she might do something rash again, he placated her with non-committal talk of not breaking up, but in his heart, he no longer felt the way he used to about her.

He was well aware that this shift in feelings was due to Jiang Man.

He Xiuyan and her agent had tried to target Jiang Man; although they failed, it angered him.

Liu Pei got a rough lesson from Xingzhou, bitten all over by a German Shepherd, and was still lying in the hospital.

He knew that Xingzhou and Jiang Man had spared He Xiuyan for his sake.

Otherwise, He Xiuyan would have ended up just like Liu Pei.

Ding ding ding...

As Song Xiao was drowning his sorrows in alcohol, his phone on the coffee table rang.

"Oh-ho, is the missus checking up on you?" his buddies teased.

Song Xiao, a bit annoyed, picked up the phone and saw that He Xiuyan was calling.

"Knock it off."

Saying this, he stood up and pushed open the door of the VIP room to take the call.

A feeble voice immediately came through the phone, "Brother Xiao, I’m scared sleeping alone, can you come and keep me company?"

"I’m busy right now," Song Xiao replied in a cold tone, "I’ll have the auntie at home come and stay with you."

"Brother Xiao... I’m sorry... It really wasn’t me targeting Jiang Man, it was Liu Pei, he..."

"It’s alright." Song Xiao controlled his emotions, "I understand everything, go to sleep early, I’ll send the auntie over."

"There’s no need for the auntie to come over," He Xiuyan said, her voice tinged with crying, "I’m fine now, I feel much more at ease hearing your voice."

"Then get some rest early."

"Okay."

After hanging up the call, Song Xiao didn’t feel relieved; instead, he felt even more burdened.

He’d wait a few days, then make things clear with He Xiuyan and send her back to Korea.

He stuffed his phone into his pocket and was about to head back to the private room when, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

"Manman?"

"Hmm?"

Jiang Man had just returned from the restroom.

"Is it really you? What are you doing in a place like this?"

"Oh, just accompanying a friend."

"Friend?" Song Xiao frowned, "That Wu Yingfan guy?"

"Not just him, there’s also a sister. I’ll introduce you to her later if I get a chance, I have to go in now."

Jiang Man waved her hand, knowing that Song Xiao surely didn’t come to this kind of place alone, he must be with a bunch of friends.

Out of a desire not to disturb, she quickly said a few words and pushed open the private room door to enter.

Song Xiao purposely stretched his neck to peek inside the room.

What met his eyes was a blonde girl sitting on the laps of three men, who were all pouring drinks into her mouth at the same time.

"What the?" Song Xiao was shocked, his eyes widening.

Playing that wild?

He took out his phone wanting to take a photo.

But the door to the private room closed at that moment.

Almost immediately, the first thought that crossed his mind was to call Lu Xingzhou urgently.

Lu Xingzhou was already in bed by then.

Seeing a call from Song Xiao, he felt a bit annoyed, "What’s going on? Something in the middle of the night?"

"Something big! How can you be sleeping? Have you checked if your wife is still by your pillow?"

"What do you mean?" Lu Xingzhou slowly sat up.

"What’s the situation? You don’t know Manman isn’t there? Did you two actually sleep together? Why do I feel something is off between you?" Song Xiao sensed something unusual.

"Speak directly." Lu Xingzhou’s voice involuntarily lowered, tinged with annoyance.

He was indeed sleeping in a separate room from Jiang Man; wasn’t he always trying to win his wife over?

"I didn’t see clearly, just caught a glimpse of a foreign girl ordering three male models. Manman said that was her friend, as for how many she ordered, I’m not sure."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xingzhou nearly jumped out of bed, flinging off his blanket, his entire body tense as he slipped on his slippers and deftly began to undo his pajama buttons with one hand.

"Where are they? Send me the address, I’m heading over now!"

"Okay." After Song Xiao said this, he quickly ended the call and sent the location.

Over at Rong Mansion, as soon as Lu Xingzhou saw the location named ’Qingliao Night Bar,’ his handsome eyebrows knitted together, a fire erupting in his chest.

She actually went to find male models?

The little girl was really being naughty.

"Heh heh." Lu Xingzhou laughed at himself sardonically.

Really now, at thirty years old with a net worth in the hundreds of billions, and yet, he was being led by the nose by a twenty-year-old girl.

And he didn’t even know when he had given his heart to her, unable to take it back.

...

Inside the private room of the bar.

JOJO was having a great time chatting with the host.

Two of the male hosts spoke decent English and were able to converse smoothly with her.

"Sister, you look familiar, like some female celebrity."

"Me?" JOJO smirked with mischief, thinking of Jiang Man playing coy, "Many people say that. I’m mixed, my dad’s overseas and my mom’s in China. I come back to China once a year and stay for a while. I know a little Chinese."

Then, switching to Chinese, she said, "I like you."

Her Chinese was quite standard.

"Sister, let’s continue drinking. This wine is sweet with a touch of green plum flavor."

"Green plum, I like that."

Although Jiang Man was playing a game, she was multitasking.

She glanced at the bottle of wine that one of the hosts had opened with the corner of her eye.

Well, she recognized this bottle—it was Elizabeth Eight Degrees.

The alcohol content wasn’t high, but because it was a royal exclusive, it was very expensive, costing 36,000 a bottle.

Alright, the female star wasn’t short of money.

"Miss, would you like some? It’s pretty good," said one of the young, Korean-looking "puppies" who had been paying attention to Jiang Man.

In fact, they were about the same age.

From the moment Jiang Man entered the door, he had been curious about her.

Could there really be such an abstemious girl in this world?
