You didn’t use your x-ray vision to peek again, did you? Pervert!” Vermilion Bird suddenly thought of this question and spat lightly. “Your sister, my lord heard it, okay? Silenced guns still make noise, okay?” Bai Xiaofan couldn’t be bothered to explain to Vermilion Bird, closed the bathroom door, and then went back to her side. Before Vermilion Bird could react, he suddenly yanked up her skirt. “Ah... Bastard, what are you going to do?” Vermilion Bird jumped back in shock, looking at Bai Xiaofan with horror. She was already no match for Bai Xiaofan, and now that she had been shot, she was certainly even less able to beat him. If Bai Xiaofan did something to her, she was sure she wouldn’t get away, and with so much noise outside, no one would hear her even if she called for help. “Do you? You really think of me as an animal that thinks with its lower half, I’m going to take the bullet out for you!” Bai Xiaofan rolled his eyes at Vermilion Bird with annoyance. This stupid woman really did have a pig’s brain, otherwise why would she be called Pig Bird? “The bullet is in the shoulder, not the stomach, why are you lifting my skirt?” “My mistake, okay, stop talking, I’m going to get the bullet out!” Slowly... slowly... Bai Xiaofan’s palm, covered the wound. “Believe it or not, I’ll kill you?” Vermilion Bird threatened in a low voice with a gun against Bai Xiaofan’s legs. “I...” Bai Xiaofan argued weakly, took out the Fish Intestine Sword from his bosom, and stabbed directly toward Vermilion Bird’s wound. “Ah...” The sudden pain almost made Vermilion Bird cry out. She instinctively lowered her head and bit into Bai Xiaofan’s shoulder. After removing the bullet, Bai Xiaofan crushed a medicinal pill and applied it to Vermilion Bird’s wound, stopping the blood. “Thank you!” Vermilion Bird said quietly in gratitude to Bai Xiaofan, pulled down her skirt gently, covering her curves! Though wearing clothes or not, for Bai Xiaofan in front of her, it probably made no difference. “Hurry up and fix your clothes, and wear this coat. Otherwise, with all that blood on your upper body, you will stand out and scare everyone off!” Bai Xiaofan casually took off his coat and threw it to Vermilion Bird, then turned and walked out of the restroom. The instant Bai Xiaofan turned and left, Vermilion Bird was stunned. There was a clear bite mark on the left shoulder of his white shirt, and blood was seeping through. Vermilion Bird remembered that it was she who had just bitten him. Before long, the two rejoined the boisterous crowd together, sitting side by side for some reason. “Take this Jade Talisman, wear it on your body. It can effectively heal injuries!” Bai Xiaofan thought for a while and took out a Jade Talisman and gave it to Vermilion Bird. With a gentle nod, Vermilion Bird took it and put it away securely. “Hello everyone, first I would like to thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend my grandfather’s eightieth birthday banquet!” Su Shiqi, holding a microphone, stood on the stage with a beaming smile and addressed the audience. After a few words of courtesy were over, Su Zhenye waved to the crowd as a greeting before the feast officially began. At the table where Su Zhenye was sitting, aside from Su Shiqi, there wasn’t a single member of the Su family; everyone else was a major figure with immense prestige in Nanjiang City, even throughout Jiang Province. “Xiaofan, my grandfather invites you to sit at that table!” Su Shiqi approached Bai Xiaofan. Thus, amidst the envious gazes of everyone, Bai Xiaofan reluctantly made his way to Su Zhenye’s side and sat down. “I’d like to introduce someone to you all. This is Bai Xiaofan, the man who saved this old guy’s life!” Su Zhenye, grasping Bai Xiaofan’s hand, kindly introduced him to everyone. Facing everyone’s offer to make acquaintance, Bai Xiaofan could only numbly nod his head. “Mr. Bai, my father often talks about you. When do you have time to share a meal together?” Li Yuan, also sitting at this table, held up his glass and spoke to Bai Xiaofan with a smile. “Definitely, please give my regards to Old Master Li!” Bai Xiaofan raised his glass in a gesture. “Mr. Bai, we’ve met before. What a pleasure to see you again!” Zheng Jiluo said to Bai Xiaofan with a beaming smile. “A pleasure!” Regarding this ‘basement guy,’ Bai Xiaofan had no good feelings and replied perfunctorily. “Hehe, by the way, I recently got a new girlfriend. Unexpectedly, she happens to be a friend of yours, too. I’ll call her over so you can meet!” Zheng Jiluo, with a smile that was more sly than genuine, waved over to a table not far away. A beauty in a white dress slowly stood up, gracefully walked over to Zheng Jiluo’s side, politely bowed to everyone, and then looked towards Bai Xiaofan. “Long time no see!” Zhou Ya greeted Bai Xiaofan with a smile. “Not seeing you has been rather nice!” Bai Xiaofan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he glanced indifferently at Zhou Ya. He hadn’t expected that, after Zhao Tian, that piece of trash, had died, Zhou Ya would find someone new so quickly, and not just anyone, but Zheng Jiluo, a man several levels above Zhao Desheng. “Mr. Bai, Xiao Ya was once your girlfriend. Although she dumped you back then, we men should be magnanimous, right?” Zheng Jiluo said to Bai Xiaofan with a chuckle, casually pulling Zhou Ya into his embrace. While such behavior was somewhat unseemly in this setting, who would dare criticize it given his status as the young master of the Zheng family? Hearing Zheng Jiluo’s words, everyone instinctively looked towards Bai Xiaofan, clearly seeing that Zheng Jiluo was looking for trouble with Bai Xiaofan. Li Yuan and Su Zhenye frowned and were about to step in to speak up for Bai Xiaofan, but were stopped by Su Shiqi with a look. Su Shiqi understood Bai Xiaofan; she knew he didn’t like others’ help, and he didn’t need anybody else’s assistance either. If there really was a need, she was there for him. Though Zheng Jiluo had an illustrious background, she didn’t care. “I think... you’re mistaken. It was me who dumped her. And as you said, she is nothing more than... an ex-girlfriend!” Bai Xiaofan’s lips curled into a mocking smirk, looking at Zheng Jiluo with sarcasm. “Bai Xiaofan, must you be so heartless?” Zhou Ya’s face turned cold as she looked at Bai Xiaofan. In order to get revenge on Bai Xiaofan, after Zhao Tian’s death, she had immediately tried everything to latch onto Zheng Jiluo, a big fish. She hadn’t expected Bai Xiaofan to be completely unjealous.
