Chapter 210: Chapter 210: The Little Girl Likes You

The woman wore ear-length short hair, with delicate features, dressed in black leather jacket and pants, which accentuated her slender and charming figure. In her valiant and unrestrained appearance, there was an unusual sense of sexy charm.

At the scene, aside from Lin Ruoxue, Dongfang Rushi, Dongfang Ruhua, Su Linglong, Tang Wenrou, and Qin Yaorao, these exceptional women, the middle-aged woman in black stood out in terms of both figure and looks.

During the birthday banquet, led by Dongfang Leiming, the core members of the Dongfang Family came to Fang Bai specifically to toast him one by one, expressing their gratitude for his lifesaving aid to Dongfang Leiming previously.

With Dongfang Leiming standing by, the members of the Dongfang Family, whether sincerely or pretentiously, respectfully offered a toast to Fang Bai, including Dongfang Xing and Dongfang Chen, who had had conflicts with Fang Bai in the past.

Dongfang Rushi didn’t drink, so she toasted Fang Bai with tea instead.

And Dongfang Ruhua, despite being only fifteen years old, possessed a simple, naive demeanor mixed with a bit of bold and easygoing air. She actually toasted Fang Bai with strong liquor, three times in a row.

For the first toast, Dongfang Ruhua thanked Fang Bai for saving her grandfather.

For the second toast, Dongfang Ruhua thanked Fang Bai for attending her birthday party.

For the third toast, Dongfang Ruhua thanked Fang Bai for giving her such a gift as the Luminous Pearl.

Fang Bai didn’t refuse and drank to the last drop, drinking freely and heartily.

After a round of toasts from the members of the Dongfang Family, three bottles of liquor were nearly finished. Everyone saw that Fang Bai had drunk more than a jin and a half of liquor without showing any signs of intoxication, which they found quite astonishing.

Little did they know, Fang Bai practiced a special cultivation technique; his body was different from ordinary people. Not to mention a jin and a half of liquor, even ten or a hundred times more wouldn’t make him the slightest bit drunk.

Around ten o’clock in the evening, the birthday banquet ended, and the guests started to leave one after another. Dongfang Leiming signaled the younger members of the family to replace him in seeing off the guests.

However, when Fang Bai, Su Linglong, and Lu Jianfeng were leaving together, Dongfang Leiming personally escorted them to the villa’s main gate, held onto Fang Bai’s hand, and urged him to visit their home often.

Dongfang Ruhua seemed reluctant to see Fang Bai leave, standing outside the gate until Fang Bai and Su Linglong had walked quite a distance. She still stood there, clutching the Luminous Pearl Fang Bai had given her in her left hand, while her right arm was raised high, waving vigorously at Fang Bai.

At a crossroads far from the Dongfang residence, Fang Bai gave a Luminous Pearl to Lu Jianfeng. Lu Jianfeng, overjoyed upon receiving the Luminous Pearl, happily got into the bodyguard’s business car and left.

Of course, Fang Bai also gave a Luminous Pearl to Su Linglong, who delightedly accepted it and carefully placed it in her purse.

After parting with Lu Jianfeng, Fang Bai and Su Linglong walked slowly side by side along the embankment of a small river in Yanjing City,

Willows beside them, a crescent moon above, and occasional pleasant night breezes whisking past, this atmosphere was intoxicating.

"Fang Bai, have you noticed that the young miss Ruhua from the Dongfang family has taken a liking to you?"

Su Linglong brushed a strand of hair, tousled by the wind, behind her ear, turned her head towards Fang Bai, and asked with a smile.

Fang Bai was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "If you gave her a Mingzhu, she’d like you too."

Su Linglong said, "I can tell it’s not the Luminous Pearl she likes, but you."

"Oh? How do you know that?"

"It’s quite obvious! She almost said the words ’I like you’ right there! Only a fool wouldn’t see it."

Fang Bai sighed, "I’m just realizing now that I’m actually a fool!"

Su Linglong gave him a look and said indignantly, "I don’t believe you couldn’t see it... you must be pretending not to know, right?"

After a pause, she added, "It’s no wonder, really. You’ve saved her and her grandfather’s lives; she must see you as a superhero. Plus, the Luminous Pearl you gave her tonight, if she weren’t moved by that, it would be strange. If it were me, I’d fall for you too..."

Fang Bai grinned and said, "I have also saved your life and given you a Luminous Pearl, so by your logic, do you like me?"

Su Linglong immediately blushed deeply. She was indeed very fond of Fang Bai, but as a girl, she naturally felt too embarrassed to say such things directly.

Su Linglong knew that Fang Bai must be able to see that she liked him. His question was probably just a way of teasing her.

"Fang Bai, you... you’re so annoying!"

Seeing Fang Bai’s mischievous smile, Su Linglong, flushed with shyness, stamped her foot and bit her lip. She clenched her little fist and gently thumped it against his arm.

Her coquettish behavior made something stir in Fang Bai’s heart, reviving memories of the warm, sweet moments he spent frolicking with his close female friends back in the Immortal Realm.

However, after he had "fallen" in the Immortal Realm, ambushed by the eight Immortal Emperors, those once intimate friends of his were sure to face a grim fate.

Even if one day he could return to the Immortal Realm, how many of those close female friends from the past could still remain?

At this thought, a killing Qi enveloped Fang Bai. His fists clenched tightly, and his eyes shot out a startling, blade-like glint.

"Fang Bai, what... what’s wrong with you?"

Seeing Fang Bai’s god-of-war-like expression and feeling the fierce killing Qi emanating from him, Su Linglong paled with fear, her complexion turning ashen as she took several steps back.

"Linglong, I’m sorry..."

Fang Bai came back to his senses and, seeing Su Linglong’s terrified face, apologetically said, "I suddenly thought of some things and couldn’t control my emotions..."

Su Linglong breathed a sigh of relief, her complexion returning to normal. She patted her chest and said, "You were so scary just now, like you were about to kill someone. I almost cried... You must have been thinking of something truly terrible, right?"

"Yes," Fang Bai sighed, his thoughts returning to those close female friends in the Immortal Realm who might have already perished by now, and his mood turned exceptionally somber.

Seeing his darkened mood, Su Linglong mustered the courage to reach out her hand to interlock her fingers with his, holding on tightly as if to offer him comfort and encouragement.

Fang Bai turned and smiled at Su Linglong without a word.

The two walked ahead side by side, hand in hand in silence, along the willow-lined bank.

Listening to the rustling sounds of the willows and the flowing river by his side, Fang Bai’s mood gradually calmed down.

When they arrived at the gate of Su Linglong’s villa, the two instinctively stopped in unison.

"Do you want to come in and sit for a while?"

Su Linglong asked.

"No, I’m renting someone else’s place, and it wouldn’t be good to go back too late."

"Oh."

Su Linglong nodded, suddenly turned sideways, stood on tiptoe, tilted her head back, and quickly pressed her lips to Fang Bai’s.

Fang Bai did not expect Su Linglong to be so bold and assertive. Caught slightly off-guard, their lips parted as soon as Su Linglong’s touched his, and then she dashed to the villa’s door like a startled fawn, ringing the doorbell.
