"Wei Zhao, go get us a private room," Gu Mengyao said to him, her tone suggesting she regarded him as nothing more than an errand boy.
"All right!" Wei Zhao said nothing more, only nodded.
But just as Wei Zhao and the others were about to step into the V, several taxis pulled up at the entrance, and out of them stepped classmates from Class Five, Grade Twelve — among them, Xie Yufeng.
Clearly, Xie Yufeng had also chosen this V. It was not that he had deliberately followed Wei Zhao here; it was simply that Tiandi V was one of the more luxurious establishments in Songshan City, and having just arrived, he had come on the recommendation of his classmates.
Truly, one finds what one has sought far and wide without any effort at all! A faint smile traced the corner of Xie Yufeng's mouth.
He had already given up on the idea of approaching Wei Zhao tonight, never expecting that the two of them would end up at the same V.
"You're all from Class Five, Grade Twelve, aren't you? Your faces look familiar..." Xie Yufeng said, striding over to Wei Zhao and the others the moment he stepped out of the taxi.
Seeing Xie Yufeng come toward Gu Mengyao, Wei Zhao halted and quietly positioned himself about a meter away from her.
This Xie Yufeng was a formidable hand at the peak of the early Profound rank. Wei Zhao had not yet figured out his background and could not afford to drop his guard — if the man were to suddenly turn on Gu Mengyao, Wei Zhao would need to be able to block him in time.
At this distance, Wei Zhao could just manage to stop Xie Yufeng before he made his move — could even kill him outright.
"Yes. Is there something you need?" Though Gu Mengyao had no wish to associate with them, she could hardly ignore someone who had come over to greet her. The more she was the chairman's daughter, the more she had to mind appearances — a point she reminded herself of constantly.
"Ha ha, we came here to sing too. Why not join us? It'll be livelier that way!" As Xie Yufeng spoke with Gu Mengyao, his gaze drifted sidelong to Tang Zhi, Feng Xiaoxiao, and Shen Yushu — and when his eyes swept over the swell of Shen Yushu's chest, a flicker of lewdness passed through them.
Top-notch — if a man could get his hands on those, it would surely feel incredible. And then Tang Zhi and Feng Xiaoxiao — every one of them a peerless beauty.
"Thank you, but we don't care for lively crowds," Gu Mengyao said, shaking her head and declining his offer. "We won't keep you. We'll be going first."
With that, Gu Mengyao took Shen Yushu's hand and turned toward the V's entrance.
Only then did Wei Zhao turn around. Without so much as a glance at Xie Yufeng, he escorted Gu Mengyao and the others inside.
"Damn it!" Xie Yufeng cursed viciously under his breath. "Who does she think she is, putting on airs like that? One day I'll have you under me, making you scream!"
Having cursed, Xie Yufeng turned back around, his warm smile restored, and addressed his classmates. "Ha ha, seems they won't give us any face. Let's go have our fun!"
Though the classmates were grateful to Xie Yufeng for treating them to a night of singing, none of them dared say a word against Wei Zhao — the man had beaten even Zhong Yongliang and Zou Ruoming. Who among them would dare run their mouth?
Xie Yufeng had tossed off a complaint about Wei Zhao and Gu Mengyao, expecting the others to chime in. To his surprise, the response was a chilly silence, which only soured his mood further. Yet nothing showed on his face; he merely leaned over and whispered to Wang Congming beside him, "Go find out which private room they've taken."
Wang Congming nodded at once in understanding and headed ahead to the front desk to inquire about Wei Zhao's room number.
The attendant at the desk thought nothing of it. Seeing Tang Zhi's school uniform, and noticing that Wang Congming and his group wore the same, she assumed they were together and naturally told him which room Wei Zhao had booked.
