Chapter 31 - Secretly Measuring Up (2)

Xu Yushan was shocked from witnessing that scene.

Of course she had heard about the crazy stories about him in the past, but she figured that was normal behavior for a rich young man like him and didn't think much about it.

What she didn't expect was that Young Master Nan, an adult, would behave so much like a child…

That was a harder pill to swallow.

Young Master Nan looked embarra.s.sed from the fall.

Giving what had happened, Zhong Chi made up some excuse, ended the conversation with the Nan's and walked away with Xu Yunhui.

Xu Yunhui lowered her head and followed.

Mr. Nan took a look at the departing Xu Yunhui and sighed, "She doesn't come close to Zhong Yuhuan."

"But, she is still so young. What is the point?" Mrs. Nan frowned. "Besides, we have all heard of her temper. When her dad brought Xu Yunhui into the house, remember all the scenes that she had caused? They even lost a business engagement because of her. She is going to fight to Yangyang day and night if he marries her."

Mr. Nan scoffed, "What do you know. Are you aware of Lang Jinzhi's current status?"

On the other side, the only thing that Young Master Nan could think about right now was that he wanted Zhong Yuhuan, bad.

She's so incredibly pretty!

Even just having her at home would make him happy!

***

The only reason that Zhong Yuhuan showed up at the banquet was to pick on Xu Yunhui and her daughter. She wanted everyone in the upper cla.s.s social circle to know that she, Zhong Yuhuan, was still the one and only daughter of the Zhong's.

Once she had made her appearance and her point, she had lost all interest to stay.

That's why she just took off with the rest of the second-generation rich kids.

Naturally, they have their own form of entertainment.

After leaving the banquet, they headed toward a high-end club.

The manager at a high-end club knew how to cater to his customers. He knew how to alter the normal program when he saw this ground of young wealthy kids.

"Let's play pool!" Someone shouted. Then, turning to Zhong Yuhuan, "Zhong Yuhuan, do you know how to play pool?"

Zhong Yuhuan nodded, "Of course!"

"Great! Let's start with that then. And bring some gaming consoles too!"

Zhong Yuhuan took the opportunity when the others were talking to the manager to talk to Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan, "Do you know how to play?"

Both boys shook their heads.

Pool?

They have only heard of it in the past.

Zhong Yuhuan picked up their hands, scratched inside their palms, smiled and comforted them, "Don't worry, I will teach you."

The workers had everything prepared in no time.

Zhong Yuhuan had her fair share of these in her previous life.

Pool, handheld gaming devices, outdoor activities… she had played all of them.

Zhong Yuhuan picked up a pool cue before turning and looking at the two boys, "Which one of you wants to try first?"

Li Jinyuan opened his mouth and was about to say something.

Huo Chengming took a big step forward and drowned out Li Jinyuan.

"I will give it a try," said Huo Chengming.

"Okay!" Zhong Yuhuan reached out her hand toward him.

This time Huo Chengming had no hesitation. He took her hand and walked toward the pool table.

She grabbed the pool cue, and lowered her body closer to the surface of the table as she continued to explain the rules and pointers to Huo Chengming while giving him a demonstration.

"Just like this…." Said Zhong Yuhuan as she turned and looked at Huo Chengming.

Behind them, Li Jinyuan's eyes flickered a bit and, almost immediately, he removed his jacket, took a step forward, and tied it around Zhong Yuhuan's waist.

Zhong Yuhuan paused for a bit, then stood up and looked over at Li Jinyuan.

"Oh, thank you, di di." Suddenly, Zhong Yuhuan realized why he did what he did. She still had the on the formal dress she wore specifically for attending the banquet. It was easy for the dress to rise up when she leaned over.

Li Jinyuan pursed his lips and said softly, "You can call me ge ge too!"

Zhong Yuhuan shook her head, "Nope. You are younger than me, even if its just by a day."

Li Jinyuan looked into her eyes and finally gave up the fight and took a step back.

Huo Chengming suddenly looked at the jacket wrapped around her waist and even he had a complicated slight change in his emotions.

He said softly, "Huanhuan, give me the pool cue. I want to give it a try."

When Huo Chengming said that, his face was tightened, obviously nervous.

He had heard others called her "Huanhuan," but had never referred to her that way himself. This was the very first time he had shown any signs of closeness to her.

Zhong Yuhuan paused for a second, followed by a bright smile, "Okay!" She handed over the pool cue to Huo Chengming.
