Chapter 503 - A Kitten caught by Uncle

Lu Yin Ze's thin lips moved.

"Young Master Gao Huan, it's not easy meeting you. We haven't got a chance to talk about our childhood together, have we? I think we need to do a lot of catching up."

Guan Gao Huan wanted to step back, but his pride would not allow him to.

He shifted his head slightly, his golden eyes sweeping sideways, and stared closely at the other man's smooth face.

Two pairs of eyes stared in a deadlock, their shoulders touching, and their faces close together.

"There's nothing to catch up with. Childhood days… I don't remember spending a lot of time with you back then."

Lu Yin Ze's eyes stilled.

There was nothing in his childhood days worth talking about with him, because most of his days then was spent inside his prison—the hospital.

Guan Gao Huan apparently knew it. As expected of a Guan.

But Lu Yin Ze did not back down.

"How funny. There's a lot of things I wanted to chat with you though. After all, we're once childhood playmates."

Before he got imprisoned by his own family.

Guan Gao Huan's golden eyes flashed.

The two was in a lockdown for a while in this position.

Not far away from them were the five kings.

Three of them were grouped to themselves, while the two other kings were busy talking with the other hegemons.

Caleb's influence was not very great in Country C, so he was quite relaxed in this dinner party.

There were also some business moguls with connections in the Middle East coming to him from time to time, but mostly, he was just lazing around while having idle talk with Eugene.

He was the first one to spot the deadlock between Lu Yin Ze and Guan Gao Huan.

Two men with obvious mix in heritage, one with a more slender built and silver hair, the other with a manly built and long brown hair tied up. Coupled with the strange and electric atmosphere between the two while sticking closely together, it was a stunning sight that sent the onlookers' hearts thumping.

Caleb, who had a habit of gossiping just second to William, silently elbowed Eugene and pointed his glass towards the pair of men who acted very intimate in the eyes of everyone.

"See those tall brave heroes flirting in public? What a pity, two gorgeous men, both like the same s.e.x.u.a.l orientation. I pity the girls who are after them."

Eugene narrowed his eyes as he looked more closely.

He observed the scene before finally realizing the actual situation.

"Hey, hey, stop with your assumptions. I don't think they are cut-sleeves. The taller one with brown hair is the third master of the Guan family. While the slender guy is the young master of the Lu family. Both are totally famous with women, just like William."

Caleb raised his eyes in surprise.

"Are you serious? Hell, why is the air between the two very ambiguous? You can't blame me for misunderstanding."

Eugene sneered at him. "Don't you see that woman behind the man with the silver hair?"

Caleb saw Xiong Zhi who tried to walk away from the two, but was currently being blocked by a crowd.

"Oh, so they're in a confrontation? Because of a woman?"

"A woman? Whose woman?" William suddenly chimed in while walking closer to them. He had just escaped from a bunch of oldies who wanted to be acquainted with the Grand Company.

Caleb chuckled.

His friend's already sharp hearing always become sharper when there was a woman in the topic. Caleb pointed his glass at Xiong Zhi.

"We're just saying, that stunning lady, my brother, might be the cause of the two men's weird position over there. Too bad she was far away and I couldn't see her beauty."

He then pointed at Guan Gao Huan and Lu Yin Ze.

But William's eyes shone after seeing Xiong Zhi's figure.

The little girl had grown up so well and became even more attractive in just three years.

"Found her," William said with a knowing smile and walked up to Xiong Zhi.

'???'

The two men left behind, Caleb and Eugene, looked at each other in wonder and decided to follow William.

Xiong Zhi subtly fanned herself with a hand.

The hall was air conditioned, but because of that small chase from Guan Gao Huan, Xiong Zhi sweated.

Xiong Zhi wanted to find a peaceful and quiet place to get away from the beast, but it almost seemed impossible to escape this circle of gentlemen surrounding her. She calmed herself down.

There was no way that man could do something to her. They were in the middle of the crowd and this place had tight security. No one could harm her here. Besides, Linfeng was in the same place as hers. She would be safe.

While she was courteously excusing herself, the group of people in front of her shifted their eyes simultaneously to behind her back and showed a pleasantly surprised expression, as if they had found a dear friend behind her.

Xiong Zhi's brows imperceptibly furrowed. Her initial thought was that the Guan beast must have caught up. The next moment, she heard a familiar voice behind her.

"Young Miss Xiong Zhi? It's been a long time. You didn't even greet me despite seeing me, I'm sad!" It was a cheerful voice which she had heard once before.

Xiong Zhi turned around.

She saw a handsome blonde man with cheerful blue eyes.

Relief washed over her. Thankfully, not the beast.

Xiong Zhi smiled lightly at him.

"Uncle William."

William: "...." His cheerful smile froze.

"Pfft." Caleb caught up with them and laughed when he heard Xiong Zhi's address for William.

Eugene chuckled as well and then murmured, "She reminds me of a certain someone..."

Caleb winked at Eugene and mouthed, 'The youngest.'

The pair exchanged glances knowingly and threw William a mocking look.

See? You're really getting old.

William: … I swear, these two must've been a couple in their previous life.

He ignored Xiong Zhi's address. He did not want to lose face in front of other gentlemen by looking like he cared about his age. He was still young anyway, as long as he knew it himself.

William looked at the men who was surrounding Xiong Zhi.

"Gentlemen, will it be fine if I borrow this lady for a moment?"

The gentlemen looked at each other and had no choice but to nod.

They actually wanted to join the three kings and Xiong Zhi's group, but since the man himself already asked not be disturbed, they could only agree.

"Thank you. Let's find some time to talk later, alright? Enjoy yourselves tonight," William laughed.

The gentlemen politely smiled at William's promise.

Their minds were already calculating how to grab the chance to associate with William later. It would be great to form connections with the Grand Agency.

"It's nothing to worry about."

"Take your time, we can chat later."

They left with satisfied expressions.

Xiong Zhi remained standing.

Did William want to ask something from her?

Her phoenix eyes then swept to the other two tall men. She recognized them, the kings who were also the new brothers of her boyfriend.

A faint smile formed on her lips. "Sir Caleb, Sir Eugene. It's a pleasure to be your acquaintance."

The two looked at the graceful beauty in an elegant white cheongsam in appreciation.

They were about to greet back when William opened his mouth, "Don't mind them. Come here, my niece, uncle missed you a lot~" William reached out to hold her shoulders and 'politely' escorted her away.

Caleb and Eugene: . . . .

This uncle really had some guts, daring to act intimate to a woman who managed to put two men from legendary families in a stand-off. Were you not afraid of getting retribution later?

Frost appeared on Xiong Zhi's brows. She still did not like pointless physical contact with men. She peeled off the presumptuous arm around her shoulders and lightly patted as if brushing away dust.

"Uncle, watch your manners around a lady."

William just grinned and put his arms around her shoulders once more, 'escorting' her forward.

He found the little kitten cute when she looked like her hair had exploded all over her body in annoyance.

"Don't act so distant, niece, you're calling me uncle since earlier. Shouldn't it be alright to treat you as my niece, instead of a woman?"

Xiong Zhi: (╬▔-▔)

"Let go." She could no longer be bothered to act polite.

"Or else what? Your prince will come and kick my ass? You know, your prince is busy expanding his kingdom elsewhere."

Caleb and Eugene was still following behind the two.

They looked at each other again.

Prince?

Which one was this lady's prince, the brown-haired man or the silver-haired man?

Caleb leaned closer to Eugene and whispered, "I'll bet my red sports car, her prince is the silver haired guy."

Eugene smirked. "You don't know how to read the situation. None of the two is the prince. Did you not see the woman getting away from them? I bet ten thousand that the prince is someone else."

Caleb raised her brow. "That's not fair, you should narrow it down. Also, hell, I bet my sports car and you're just betting ten thousand?"

Eugene rolled his eyes. "As if you'll really give me your favorite baby."

Then his eyes narrowed as he observed the tall Casanova and the lady with queen-like temperament.

The old uncle looked like he reverted to being a child who found a playmate's toy and was thinking of mischief.

Eugene grinned. "How about this? I bet fifty thousand, this 'prince' is William's friend, and he's in the party."

"Alright, bargain accepted."
