Chapter 474: Love Confession

Chapter 474: Love Confession

Hell, what is happening? Isn’t she here to get to know me?

Guan Tong found himself in a very awkward situation and felt rather self-conscious when his face visibly flushed to a brilliant red. The pretty, innocent-looking girl he had been eyeing walked right up to Xiao Luo and stood next to him, gazing at him with goo-goo eyes.

Oh, my fr*ckin’ god, this is so embarrassing!

He absolutely did not expect that the girl was going for his friend, Xiao Luo—what a scumbag he is!

He quickly pretended like he was taking a call, and inwardly, he patted himself on the back for his shrewdness.

Chu Yue took a hard look at the man in front of her. Yes, she was sure it was him and was pleasantly surprised, never expecting she would meet him here. “Preten… Xiao Luo, it is really you! It’s great. I’ve finally found you!”

If Bai Ling saw this, she’d be shocked beyond words—wasn’t this the same Princess Yue who was always sticking pins into a voodoo doll to curse Xiao Luo? How did she suddenly transform into such a little lamb?

Did they know each other?

Guan Tong was startled, but he then kept his composure and listened in closely, trying to figure out what was really happening.

Since Chu Yue had already seen him, Xiao Luo decided there wasn’t any point in pretending any further. He turned around and shot a glance at her, feigning surprise. “Miss Chu, why aren’t you staying put in Jiangcheng, and what are you doing here in Xiahai?” he asked, “Besides, this is a bar, don’t you know that this kind of place is a little sleazy and dangerous for you?”

“You … so, you care about me after all.”

Chu Yue nuzzled against him and placed her hand on Xiao Luo’s arm, stroking it lightly, and staring at him with adoring eyes.

“I am quite close to Mister Chu, and you are his daughter. Since we happen to bump into each other in this city, it’s only normal for me to express my concern, right?” Xiao Luo did not want her to get the wrong impression.

“Oh…”

Chu Yue muttered a response, and disappointment washed over her face.

Suddenly, two heavily-built men wearing suits and ties marched toward them. When they saw Chu Yue standing so close to a man, a look of concern showed on both their faces, but when they realized that the man was Xiao Luo, their expressions changed instantly, and they looked at him in bewilderment.

“Mr. Xiao?” The two men called out simultaneously.

“Messrs Xiang, it’s been a while!” Xiao Luo greeted them warmly.

The two men were the bodyguards whom Chu Yunxiong had hired to protect Chu Yue—Xiang Gaoyang and Xiang Gaojian.

“Yeah, I did not expect that Mister Xiao would land up in Xiahai to further your career.”

Xiang Gaoyang sighed. It was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise to see Xiao Luo again, as they used to protect Chu Yue together. They were once colleagues, yet now Xiao Luo was the boss of Luo’s Workshop, and he was still a bodyguard. He had mixed feelings, for although he was satisfied with his current job, he was amazed by how different two men’s fate could be.

“Just trying to get by.”

Xiao Luo said humbly, then he asked, “What brings you guys and Miss Chu to Xiahai? And, of all place, to a bar like this? It must be because the capricious Miss Chu wanted to have a look at what a bar looks like, isn’t it?”

Hearing what he said, Chu Yue pouted her lips and retorted, “You pretentious d*ck, I am not capricious. I’m here to meet with a venture capitalist!”

Being annoyed brought out her true nature, and she immediately addressed Xiao Luo the way she used to.

“A venture capitalist? So you’ve taken over Mister Chu’s company? Xiao Luo asked, smirking with an incredulous look on his face.

Chu Yue lifted her chin defiantly. “Huh, I don’t want that old fool’s company; I’m not interested in the catering industry,” she said, “I know a guy who knows a lot about venture capital; he once emptied a small country’s treasury with just a hundred thousand yuan. After hearing about his story, I’ve decided to invest the two hundred thousand yuan I earned from my live broadcasting business in him, and he will run the operation for me.”

Venture capitalist? Investment? Operation?

Xiao Luo frowned. Why was it that he couldn’t help feeling that Chu Yue had fallen into a marketing scam from what he heard? Besides, a multi-level marketing executive, supposedly at a manager level, would be here shortly. Was he the venture capitalist mentioned by Chu Yue, perhaps?

“Does Mister Chu know about it?” Xiao Luo asked, turning to Xiang Gaoyang.

Xiang Gaoyang bowed his head slightly and replied, “Yes, Mr. Xiao, our boss knows about this, but …”

He did not finish the sentence but smiled wryly, and his subtle expression spoke for itself. Evidently, Chu Yunxiong must have already known that it was a trap. Perhaps, he did not stop Chu Yue from attending because he wanted her to learn a lesson and realize how dark the world could be.

Xiao Luo smiled as he took a sip of his cold beverage. “Miss Chu, this is a dangerous place; you should go back to Jiangcheng,” he said.

“Humph, I don’t want to!”

Chu Yue moved closer and sat right next to him in front of the bar.

The young bartender smiled and asked, “Pretty girl, what can I get you?”

“Champagne, please,” Chu Yue said.

“Coming right up.”

The bartender poured the sparkling wine into a fluted glass and served it to Chu Yue.

After taking a sip, Chu Yue turned to look fawningly at Xiao Luo, and her eyes sparkled with passion. “Pretentious d*ck, everyone misses you, why wouldn’t you come back to visit?” she said.

Xiao Luo chuckled. “I have things that need to be done on my own, and you guys have to finish your studies too. Anyway, what can I do if I go back?” he replied.

“No matter how you define yourself, you would always be a member of our class. Do you know? The day you left without telling us, everyone cried. Even though we won first place in the choir competition, everyone was very sad because you left, the first place didn’t give us any joy, not even a little bit!” Chu Yue said. Once again, she gently placed her fair, soft palm on the back of Xiao Luo’s hand in an intimate way.

Xiao Luo moved his hand away, took a sip of his cold beverage, and said, “Time will heal everything.”

Chu Yue articulated her cherry lips, finding courage from the effects of the drink. “No, time will never erase you from my heart,” she mumbled.

Shut the front door! Was this innocent girl confessing her love to the scumbag, Xiao Luo?

Guan Tong, sitting next to Xiao Luo, was burning up with jealousy and envy.

Xiang Gaoyang and Xiang Gaojian exchanged glances, giving each other wry smiles. Their young mistress had already rejected more than thirty other guys, and she was evidently devoted to Xiao Luo. They inwardly identified with Chu Yue’s pick because Xiao Luo was indeed a very outstanding man.

Xiao Luo stared blankly at Chu Yue’s blushing cheeks and changed the subject. “You can’t hold your liquor, huh, already drunk after a few sips?” he teased.

“Nonsense, I’m not drunk!”

“Normally, a drunk person wouldn’t think so…”

“I said I’m not drunk. Can you not change the subject?”

“Err, sure.”

“Pretentious d*ck, do you understand what I’m trying to say at all?”

Chu Yue felt that she was about to lose it—she was already very straightforward; why wouldn’t Xiao Luo give her any response?

At that moment, a heavily-built man swaggered up to the bar counter and sat right next to her.

“Miss, can I buy you a drink?”

He ogled at Chu Yue, and his lecherous eyes pored over every inch of her body, astounded by what he saw. What a big surprise running into such a stunning girl in a bar like this. Without waiting for Chu Yue to respond, he immediately told the young bartender, “A glass of Margarita for this beautiful lady, please.”

“Yes, sir. A moment please.” The bartender replied.

“Miss, let’s get to know each other. You can call me, Johnny!”

This licentious man was obviously a skilled pickup artist, a regular in bars like these. He obviously had a lot of practice in presenting himself as a very cultured man. “Do you know why I ordered a Margarita for you? That’s because it suits an innocent, beautiful girl like you the best. It has a rich taste, laced with the unique fragrance from fruit and tequila. It has a sweet and sour taste, and it is very refreshing. I promise you’ll definitely like it.”
