Chen Mi slowly retreated behind Fang Chi with little bun as sparks started to fly between Zhou Ming and Jiang Fenhua. Never before he has seen such a thing, he looked at Fang Chi who was slightly grimacing, while slowly backing away as well, things were going to get messy.
No sooner did they think about it, Zhou Ming fired back. " Of course, it's more to my liking, after all this is what's trendy among the young masters of the town. I will never understand how can people dislike such an elegant atmosphere unless they just don't have fine taste, I am afraid that everyone will like such a setting."
Aka—— You are just as trashy as your trashy taste.
Shots were fired and Chen Mi together with Fang Chi retreated several steps back. The mers on the centre stage started to play their musical instruments a bit more loudly to suppress Zhou Ming and Jiang Fenhua's argument but as soon as the volume of the tune playing on the second floor was raised, the volume of Zhou Ming and Jiang Fenhua's argument would also increase.
Shen Li and Ye Liu who were entertaining other guests also had to drop what they were doing and had to walk to the spot where the scent of gunpowder was the strongest.
" What's going on?" asked Ye Liu as he looked at Chen Mi who was hiding behind Fang Chi, even Little bun has buried himself under the wings of his father not daring to pop his head back out —— Daddy, they were terrible. Never before has he seen such a fight!
Chen Mi slowly raised his head and whispered to Ye Liu and Shen Li. " This is Marquis Qiao's husbands, Wife asked me to take care of them but suddenly they are like this, what should we do?"
After finding out the identity of the two mers, even Ye Liu and Shen Li were a bit troubled. The identities of these mers weren't simple, if they offended them then maybe Yu Dong might have to face a lot of trouble in the future, they needed to take care of this matter properly——
While they were still pondering what they should do, Xiao Bai who was watching his performance being disrupted finally lost his temper and slammed his Guqin in Xu Zimo's hands and stood up before snatching the wooden tray from the server girl walking past him.
Then with a smile that was as fake as it was wide, he walked over to the two mers who were throwing daggers at each other and gushed, " Oh dear, you two must be tired after coming so far, aren't you? And the weather! Oh my gosh, it is just so terrible, I am telling you. It's like trying to roast and boil me at the same time, I can't wait for winter to come and give me some relief, aish... but for now, we can only drink these and quench our thirst."
Interjecting himself between the two mers, he smiled displaying his pearly white teeth to them. " Here you go, nice and cold——- I promise that you will like it, I swear."
Because of Xiao Bai's interruption, the rhythm of the quarrel broke and behind them, Xu Zimo started to play the Guqin when Xiao Bai hinted at him with a sneaky wink.
Zhou Ming was stunned at the sudden beautiful face that interrupted him, he didn't know what to do and unconsciously took the cup that was handed to him by Xiao Bai, and his ushering he even drank the sweet milkshake. The same thing happened with Jiang Fenhua and once the two calmed down they couldn't help but become embarrassed.
Jiang Fenhua originally didn't plan to fight with Zhou Ming but he was really upset when he found out that Qiao Sha was taking Zhou Ming on a trip to the town and not him. Though he would admit that in the past what he did wasn't moral and his behaviour was nothing but atrocious.
But he didn't have a choice either! His mother threatened him with her life if not what kind of mer would be willing to through his face away?
In the end, he had to sneak into Qiao Sha's bed.
He admitted his guilt but he was also pregnant and a human. As a husband how can he not feel upset when he saw his wife smile at another mer with a heartwarming smile but when facing him, her face would be as cold as the bottom of an iron pot in winter.
Even today when the two of them were leaving the house alone, they were smiling like crazy but the second he joined in —— Zhou Ming pulled a long face and as soon as he pulled a long face, his wife started to ignore him.
Why was it that Zhou Ming was pampered like a little ancestor and he was treated like a bug that could be squashed at any moment?
That was why he triggered Zhou Ming with his words.
Zhou Ming too was a bit embarrassed but he didn't show it on his face and quickly calmed down before asking Chen Mi to show him, his room.
Once they were done dealing with these two troublesome big masters, the four of them heaved a sigh of relief.
" Why the long faces?" Though Xiao Bai was just as scared as the others, he was apt in the art of socialising and was thus, fearless unlike these four, who were seeing something like this for the first time. He snatched the low alcoholic content cocktails that the server girl was walking past them carrying and handed one to each before taking one for himself. " This is a great day, the opening was a success, we should be celebrating not pulling long faces, so cheer up!"
Then he drowned the cup that he was holding in his hand, the others followed suit even Fang Chi who wasn't feeling too well. However, he only took one sip and his entire stomach started to churn—— " Ouh" with a painful moan he rushed to the washroom with his hands clasped tightly against his mouth.
The others were startled, after exchanging a glance with each other, they too rushed after Fang Chi, who walked out of the washroom after washing his face and gargling.
Shen Li noticed that the latter was looking a bit weak so he strode forward and clasped Fang Chi's arm before asking, " Chi are you okay?"
" I—-" before Fang Chi could answer, Chen Mi gasped and exclaimed in excitement. " Hey, is it just me or Brother Chi's cinnabar has gotten redder?"
