Chapter 171: Red Wine With Seasoning For Those Who Need It
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at the red liquid in the cup and said to Yan Kuan in amusement, “There’s actually someone who can’t wait to make a move on me. Which immortal in the end actually thinks highly of me?”
Yan Kuan looked at the cup in Shen Xiaoxiao’s hand and said to Shen Xiaoxiao’s ear with a rare smile, “Our little thing has boundless charm. Didn’t she attract a pug earlier? There are so many male dogs in heat in the Ouyang family. It’s not strange for one or two of them to suddenly appear and trade.”
When Shen Xiaoxiao heard Yan Kuan’s words, she did not know why she felt a little strange. Didn’t Yan Kuan say that he was also a member of the Ouyang family? If the men of the Ouyang family were compared to a male dog, then what about him?
Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Kuan curiously. Did he know that she had set a trap for him?
What if she wanted to laugh? How could Yan Kuan be so silly and cute at times.
“Oh, yes, the men of the Ouyang family are indeed similar to a male dog in heat.”
Following his words, after Shen Xiaoxiao finished her story, she took two quick steps as if she was running away, leaving Yan Kuan baffled. Why was this girl running away? Could he eat her?
Of course, Shen Xiaoxiao wouldn’t drink the beverage that had been added to. Not only did she not drink it, but she also pulled Yan Kuan in the direction of Liu Yufei as if nothing had happened.
It was such a rare opportunity that it would be a pity if she didn’t take advantage of it.
Liu Yufei didn’t stand together with Pei Li because she wanted to avoid suspicion. But even so, Liu Yufei was quite good-looking to begin with, and the number of young talents surrounding her was even more numerous.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtYou mean the pornographic photos just now? Get lost, the Ouyang family’s Old Master had personally spoken. Who dared to mention it? Not only that, everyone could not deliberately avoid suspicion and not take care of these two people. They even had to show their interest and pursuit of this woman, thoroughly reducing the incident of the photos to the lowest level.
Pei Meimei thought that she had caused trouble, so she stood in a corner and did not dare to run around. Occasionally, she would chat with a few girls and did not dare to cause trouble again.
Naturally, Pei Li was surrounded by a group of rich second-generation heirs and successors. Of course, this time, he had to bring his Second Brother along and recommend him to everyone.
No matter how unwilling he was, he had to act like a brother at this time.
“Aiya, I’m sorry. Is everything alright?”
The woman who had accidentally brushed past Yan Kuan had tilted her body because Yan Kuan had dodged in time. However, she walked very steadily and had also been careless just now. Hence, she only tilted her body slightly and stood firm. Moreover, she had very politely apologized first.
When she turned around, Shen Xiaoxiao saw that this woman was Pei Li’s good aunt, Pei Tianai. She was also the beloved daughter of the Pei family, the eldest daughter of the Pei family who had gone abroad for more than twenty years.
In her previous life, she had only seen her once during her divorce ceremony. She did not expect to see her here this time.
Pei Tianai was the type of person with a sweet and charming appearance. Although she was already in her forties, she seemed to be living a comfortable life abroad. There were no traces of age on her face.
Moreover, this woman was extremely humble to others, both on the surface and on the outside. If it was anyone else, they would have glared at her, but she would not.
It was the same in her previous life. Even though she and Pei Li had broken off their engagement, she still spoke to her in a soft tone, neither servile nor overbearing. She did not have the slightest intention of looking down on her.
Of course, it was difficult to make Shen Xiaoxiao like her. It was strange to say that this woman was very good at acting both on the outside and on the inside. However, Shen Xiaoxiao did not know why, but she never dared to look down on this woman. This was because this woman was too good at disguising herself. If a person could not see the slightest change in her emotions, then this woman must be very good at disguising herself. Such a woman was not to be trifled with, and it was best not to provoke her.
If Yan Kuan had not held Shen Xiaoxiao in his arms, perhaps she would have taken a big step away. Therefore, when Pei Tianai turned around to apologize to them, they were only a few steps away from each other.
However, it was this distance that caused Pei Tianai to be momentarily stunned when she saw Yan Kuan. Yes, she was indeed stunned.
“You are… You are… This gentleman looks so familiar.”
Pei Tianai’s confusion could not be faked. Furthermore, it was impossible to fake such a change of expression as if she had met someone familiar.
Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at her and then at Yan Kuan, who was still the same as before. She took the initiative to say to Yan Kuan, “Yan, are you okay? I’m sorry, this lady. I almost bumped into you just now.”
“Oh, oh, I’m fine, I’m fine. Who are you, sir?”
“Hello, I’m the President of the K-ONE Group. My surname is Yan.”
“K-ONE? Oh, it’s President Yan. Hello, hello. I’m sorry that I almost bumped into President Yan just now. It’s just that you’re a little similar to an old friend of mine. That was a little rude.”
“Is that so? It’s normal for people to be similar. Ma’am, please excuse me.”
Yan Kuan and Shen Xiaoxiao turned around and left. Pei Tianai stood where she was, deep in thought. The President of K-ONE? It seemed like he wasn’t the person she thought it was. How could that person be the president of K-ONE? K-ONE was a world-famous casino overseas. With such a big business, how could he possibly be able to do it? No, it seemed like she had really mistaken him for someone else.

Shen Xiaoxiao looked at Yan Kuan, who did not speak for a long time, and asked curiously, “Does that Pei Tianai know you? Her appearance is similar, and she really looks like she knows you.”
“Your man is so handsome and dashing. People like to strike up a conversation with me regardless of gender, age, or race. What’s so strange about that?”
Hearing such narcissistic words and deliberately avoiding the topic, Shen Xiaoxiao glared at him. Her phoenix-like eyes were seductive, causing Yan Kuan to be stunned.
“Excuse me, this handsome man will treat that beautiful lady to a glass of wine. Thank you!”
The waiter watched as Shen Xiaoxiao placed the wine glass on the tray. There was a small gold coin at the bottom of the glass. This action was natural and direct. There was nothing wrong with it at all. The waiter had seen many such situations. It was the same at the annual banquet. Moreover, because it was inconvenient to carry cash, many people carried these small gold coins on them. For the sake of convenience, they also wanted to find out some news that they thought was extremely hidden, but was deliberately released by the Ouyang family.
The waiter understood and walked to the other side with the wine in his hand. Yan Kuan couldn’t help but love Shen Xiaoxiao when he saw that she didn’t feel embarrassed at all when she used his name to do things in such a big way.
He liked this little girl’s tsundere look. Why was it so rare?
“You know how to use flowers to offer Buddha?”
“What? Aren’t you happy to treat a beauty to a drink?”
“I’m willing, of course I’m willing. As long as someone doesn’t upset the vinegar jar, I can treat all the ladies here to a drink.”
“You playboy!”
The two of them stood at one side bickering, while on the other side, Liu Yufei received the wine that the waiter handed over without the slightest bit of doubt. Someone had already treated her to a drink just now, and there were five young and talented people standing here. How could she possibly push away the wine glass? Moreover, in her eyes, the person who dared to cause trouble in such a place had yet to appear.
This was also Liu Yufei’s first time attending the Ouyang family’s banquet, so she was also fumbling about a lot of things. In previous years, her family did not have the qualifications to receive an invitation personally issued by the Ouyang family. But after working together with that mysterious person… This invitation had actually been sent to their family. How could their family not be pleasantly surprised? They also began to believe that the mysterious person might really be able to fulfill their wish, let her join the Ouyang family, and become the matriarch of the Ouyang family.
Without asking, she immediately took the wine glass and drank.
