Chapter 292: Chapter 192: Seeking Death!_2

"Where did those tens of millions of Phoenix dollars Phoenix transferred to you go? Such a large sum of money, it should be enough for both of you to use for a lifetime, right?"

Tang Fei looked at Sheng Xinhua with an embarrassed expression and said, "So you were aware of that? I thought you didn’t know."

"Do you know what best friends are? Best friends are people without secrets. What don’t I know about her? At the time I let it go, but just the money she transferred to you alone, I couldn’t earn back even if I worked hard for a hundred years... And you can’t even afford a box of dumplings? Don’t want to treat me to a good bottle of whiskey?"

"Isn’t there whiskey here?" Tang Fei pointed to a bottle of Whiskey that had just been opened on the table and said, "I’m not picky, I can drink any whiskey... Anyway, I cannot tell the good from the bad."

"I can tell the difference."

"Should I help you get that bottle of whiskey back?"

"..."

"I just feel like... isn’t this a lack of respect? Could it be someone you know?"

"People who like to frequent bars and sit at the number one seat, that’s just a few people within the circle..." Sheng Xinhua spoke up, "Receiving short benefits, eating meekly. If I accept that bottle of whiskey, then I owe someone a favor."

"When they ask you to come over, will you go? If they want to have a drink with you, will you drink?"

"I do like to drink, but only with people I like... I also don’t like to make friends haphazardly or attend inexplicable social gatherings..."

"I’m the same," Tang Fei said.

"..."

"Mr. Sheng is clear-headed, truly admirable," Tang Fei said.

"I’m here to relax, not to find trouble. If some unfamiliar people come over to sit with you, wouldn’t that just turn it into a social obligation? I wouldn’t do such a foolish thing."

"You don’t look for trouble, but trouble finds you," Tang Fei said with squinted eyes.

Sheng Xinhua followed Tang Fei’s gaze, and a group of people holding wine glasses was walking toward them.

"Heh..." Sheng Xinhua scoffed coldly and downed the Whiskey in his glass.

The group had both men and women, all looking quite young, including a few blond-haired, blue-eyed Caucasians; it wasn’t clear if they were citizens of the Aus Empire or new residents who had moved to the Phoenix Empire.

They had tall figures, well-dressed, and even though they wore gentle smiles, they carried an air of haughty, extraordinary nobility.

Tian Yi walked up to Phoenix, smiling and asked, "Xin Huai, why are you drinking alone here?"

"The Second Prince really needs to get his eyes checked," Sheng Xinhua stood up, her smile bright yet her words sharp, "I clearly have two friends sitting right beside me, how could it be that I am drinking alone here?"

Tian Yi’s expression turned stern for a moment, then returned to normal. He glanced at Tang Fei and Little Fatty with the corner of his eye and said cheerfully, "Every time you came here to drink in the past, you would bring Phoenix with you... Since Phoenix isn’t here today, I thought perhaps you were drinking alone."

"I did want to call Phoenix, but Phoenix couldn’t make it today, what could I do?" Sheng Xinhua said helplessly.

"Phoenix was injured so severely recently, it had even scared our old man. Now, he’s treating her as a precious treasure, not daring to let her go out easily," Tian Yi said.

While speaking, he glanced at Tang Fei with a playful look.

It is said that when Ling Yunxiao attempted to assassinate Phoenix, this guy was also at the scene... What were they doing in such a remote place?

Ice skating?

Hehe, who goes to such a wild place to skate?

Moreover, just the two of them, without a single friend or guard around?

But, this guy is quite lucky. Despite getting severely injured, now he looks as if nothing had happened.

Being able to come here and drink with Sheng Xinhua...

There were rumors online before, saying that he and Sheng Xinhua were a couple; they even got photographed together at a coffee shop and it was uploaded to the internet.

Now it seems... their relationship is indeed not ordinary.

Given how immensely proud Sheng Xinhua is by nature, she wouldn’t bother to look at a man she dislikes.

Thinking about his own rejections and being shunned over the years, Tian Yi felt a surge of resentment in his heart.

"So I can’t force it; if Phoenix can’t come out, then I just find other friends to join me," Sheng Xinhua said with a smile.

"I have invited Mr. Sheng several times already, when can Mr. Sheng give me a chance to drink with you?"

"Second Prince is joking, how many people are there everyday waiting to have a drink with the Second Prince... how could you find time to drink with me?"

"They are they, Mr. Sheng is Mr. Sheng. If Mr. Sheng is willing, I am always available."

Tian Yi eyed Sheng Xinhua’s makeup tonight, bewitching, sexy, with a touch of gothic style, looking alluring and exactly his type.

"Good, if there’s time..." Sheng Xinhua readily agreed.

Tian Yi knew these were just perfunctory words. If a woman was willing to accept your invitation, they would specify a time.

Like saying ’if there’s time’ or ’whenever there’s a chance’...

You might never get to see their time or opportunity.

"Let me introduce you to some friends," Tian Yi said with a smile, pointing to a man with long blonde hair cascading over his shoulders, "This is Prince Philip from the Aus Empire... We’ve been friends for many years, he came over to participate in an event here. After dinner, I brought him here to have a drink, to let him experience the culture and warmth of our Phoenix Empire and the beauty and passion of our girls..."
