After coming to a decision, Ouyang Xuan raised his hand and called out to the violinists. “Since we’ve reached such a pleasant agreement, let’s celebrate. Music, let’s get the music going. You, go and bring in some girls to sing some songs.” He then pointed at the woman squatting beside Yu Long and spoke.
The woman nodded and stepped out.
Luo Xi watched the scene and asked sourly, “Is this where you guys always come for business negotiations?”
Leng Minxing shot Ouyang Xuan a glance and explained, “Occasionally.”
Luo Xi pouted.
Soon, several women dressed in revealing clothing entered. Two went to request songs, while the others approached the men, squatting down to pour drinks for them.
Luo Xi felt a bit uncomfortable watching a woman squatting beside her. The loose neckline of the woman’s outfit revealed a large amount of her cleavage.
How could any man withstand this?
If she hadn’t been there to block it, Leng Minxing would have been the one who saw it.
Luo Xi felt depressed.
“Anji, take Miss Luo to sing. I need to discuss something with Young Master Leng.”
Anji frowned at this, clearly reluctant. But sensing Yu Long’s serious tone, she didn’t want to disturb him, so she turned to Luo Xi and said, “I heard that women from your country are skilled in many arts like music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. You must be able to sing well, right? Miss Luo, why don’t you sing a song?”
Luo Xi’s face darkened. Skilled in many arts like music, chess, calibration, and painting? Are you sure you’re talking about modern people?
But she agreed with Yu Long’s words. It must be something important. It was clear he didn’t want anyone else to know the discussion aside from Leng Minxing. Since he had mentioned trusting Leng Minxing but not her, she cooperatively stood up.
Just as she took a couple of steps, she looked back and saw the woman who had been squatting next to her now moving delicately beside Leng Minxing. Luo Xi’s expression darkened, and she said, “You, come over and sing with us.”
The woman hesitated and gave a pitiful look to Leng Minxing, as if she hoped he would speak up on her behalf.
Luo Xi narrowed her eyes, feeling increasingly displeased.
The woman glanced at Leng Minxing. Seeing he had no intention of stopping her, she stood up and walked over, looking forced. She said sheepishly, “Miss, I… I can’t sing.”
Ouyang Xuan saw Luo Xi’s unfriendly expression and cursed inwardly. When did Night Charm Club get such a clueless woman?
He scolded her impatiently, “If I tell you to sing, then just sing. What’s with the hesitation?”
The woman shrank back, silenced by his reprimand.
Luo Xi shot her a glance before turning to leave.
Anji, seeing her approach, scoffed and occupied the song request booth. She asked casually, “Since you’re so talented, I’m sure you can sing whatever I pick, right, Miss Luo?”
Luo Xi’s lips twitched. “I can sing if you want, but since you’re so confident, let’s see if you can sing this song I choose. If you can, I’m sure I can too.” She raised an eyebrow.
Hearing these provocative words, Anji immediately bristled. “Who’s afraid of whom? Bring it on!”
Leng Minxing frowned at the scene.
Yu Long, raising his glass, noted Leng Minxing’s intense focus on the girls and was a bit surprised. “I never thought that Young Master Leng, who treats women like dirt, would show such attention to a woman. It really surprises me. This Miss Luo must have something special about her, right?”
