Chapter 156: Chapter 156 Big Star_1
"Today was really too dangerous! Next time, you go out, you must bring a bodyguard! At the very least, bring Li; he’s the national martial arts champion. If he had encountered those two hooligans today, he would have certainly knocked their teeth out!" Min was still deeply unsettled by the incident at Antique Jade City, and she couldn’t let it go.
"I know, I know, you’ve said it many times since we got back."
In front of Min, the beauty who borrowed her name, was as lazy as a cat, stretching her body, revealing her exquisite curves. Not a single flaw could be found, she was so perfect that she could make a man’s nose bleed.
Even Min couldn’t help but admire her, taking a few more glimpses.
"Your safety is the most important thing, if something happened, I couldn’t bear the responsibility!"
"But we are fine, aren’t we? Besides, we met a great master who saved us!"
As the beauty spoke, she extended a snow-white slender leg, straightening her arch and pointing her toe, swinging her arms like two white lotus arms, a dance movement that made her as noble and elegant as a swan in daylight.
Her eyes sparkled when she mentioned Sheng.
Back in the alley, Sheng’s slaps had left a burly man utterly incapable of fighting back.
That scene was simply extraordinary and magnificent!
"In any case, if you don’t promise me! Next time, I will report your every move to the master!" Min huffed, threatening her.
"Alright, alright, Min!" The beauty ran over, playfully hugging Min’s arm, shaking it, instantly transforming from a proud swan to an adorable little thing, "It’s alright, we’ll just be more careful next time, nothing will happen."
"No way!" Min was unmoved, standing her ground firmly.
"What did you do to upset Min this time?" Suddenly, a voice came through, light and pleasing to the ears.
The beauty looked up in surprise, "Xuelian!"
The person who had come was none other than Wei Xuelian!
The old butler, who had shown in the guest, bowed respectfully to the beauty and then withdrew. She knew Wei Xuelian’s status and had let her in directly without even a report.
Wei Xuelian walked over with a smile, and like a bird returning to its nest, the beauty rushed over and hugged her.
"Wei Moran, you’re a big star, after all, can’t you be a little more steady?" Wei Xuelian was both amused and exasperated.
Min stepped aside, bowing respectfully to Wei Xuelian, who nodded and smiled at her in greeting.
"I’m already tired of pretending in front of people, and there’s no one else here." Wei Moran said indifferently, pulling Wei Xuelian to sit down, her eyes full of excitement, "I heard you were here and specifically canceled several concerts to come. I’m planning to hold a concert here, are you touched?"
"Touched. But, you’ve arrived too early, haven’t you? There are still over forty days until your concert in Tiannan," Wei Xuelian asked.
"Don’t I have to come and pick the venue personally?" Wei Moran said with a playful smile.
Wei Xuelian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
A popular star singer picking the venue personally? I think you’re just here to have fun!
But taking more than a month to play, she’s the only one who could be so willful!
"Alright then, since even the company is owned by your family, you can do as you like!" Wei Xuelian smiled and shook her head.
Min, also feeling helpless, smiled at Wei Xuelian, "Miss Xuelian, you really should persuade your cousin. You have no idea how much..."
"Alright, alright. Min, are you going to talk about this all day!" Wei Moran pouted her lips, her eyes suddenly twinkling, and she said cheerfully, "Why don’t you make us some egg tarts, grind a cup of coffee, Xuelian loves the hand-pulled coffee you make!"
Min’s hand-pulled coffee was so exquisite that even her father couldn’t stop praising it. It was made with a manual coffee maker, requiring numerous tools and a complicated process. Any slight mistake in each step could lead to over-extraction, resulting in an imbalanced bitterness and sourness.
Clearly, Wei Moran found her chatter bothersome and was trying to get rid of her.
Min chuckled and shook her head as she turned to leave and make coffee.
Mo Ran stuck out her tongue.
"Xuelian, hurry up and tell me how it’s like living here, is it fun?" Wei Moran asked eagerly, her eyes twinkling with excitement.
"It’s quite interesting," Wei Xuelian said with a smile.
Talking about these things, she couldn’t help but reminisce about all the fun times she had had since meeting Bai Xiaosheng.
In the kitchen.
Min listened to the cheerful laughter drifting over, sighed softly, and muttered to herself in a voice so low it was almost inaudible.
"Every one of these princesses is a handful. But... nobility is nobility, playing around is only temporary. In the end, they all must return... They always do."
Min’s voice carried a touch of melancholy and resignation.
Being born into wealth is both a blessing and a curse.
Meanwhile, Bai Xiaosheng and Han Shuying arrived back at their apartment. Just as they reached the building, Han Shuying received a call.
"There’s something going on with our team, I need to go there," Han Shuying said to Bai Xiaosheng, then suddenly smiled, "You’re not busy right now anyway, why don’t you come with me? Afterwards, I’ll treat you to a meal!"
Bai Xiaosheng snorted coldly and proceeded into the apartment without looking back.
"Sheesh, what’s his problem!" Han Shuying muttered with disdain and hurried off on her own.
Bai Xiaosheng got home and began his dream of a peaceful weekend.
Saturday passed without incident, but on Sunday, a special visitor arrived—Xie Youxin.
This time, Xie Youxin brought two burly guys as bodyguards and carried a safety box under his arm, moving with the cautiousness of a thief.
"Is it ready already?" Bai Xiaosheng was surprised. A visit from Xie Youxin could only mean one thing—delivery of the jade bangles and pendants!
Bai Xiaosheng let them in, but Xie Youxin had the two men wait at the door. He went in alone with Bai Xiaosheng, gingerly opened the security box on the table, revealing a thick red velvet lining.
Two bangles and two pendants, their color pure and unmatched, the green was striking to the heart, exuding nobility.
Xie Youxin gazed at them so intently he almost seemed to pierce the air.
"Mr. Bai, I had the masters work overnight, paying double the price to rush the job. Just these jade bangles alone are worth a fortune! If marketed well, tsk tsk... And these pendants, carved by a master himself with three top-notch artisans as assistants, tsk tsk..."
Bai Xiaosheng was also very pleased, "Is there enough jade left over to make it worth your while?"
"Plenty, more than enough," Xie Youxin grinned, "I won’t lie to you. Besides these, I’ve managed to keep two pendants and two jade rings for myself, and they’ve been snatched up on pre-order already. After paying the craftsmen and masters, what’s left is a tidy profit, just a small fortune!"
Bai Xiaosheng smiled.
Afterward, he chatted idly with Old Xie, inspected the goods, signed the receipt, and Old Xie took his leave immediately. Bai Xiaosheng didn’t see him out further than the doorway.
Xie Youxin left Bai Xiaosheng’s house with his men.
Once out of the apartment, Xie Youxin paused, looked back with a complex gaze, then sent a message on his phone, muttering to himself.
"Brother Bai, I’m a businessman who keeps his word, I never divulge client information. But now that the deal is done, I’m sorry! It’s just that the Sun Family wants to find you!"
