Chapter 40: Encountering Lin Mubai Again
Standing at the entrance of ’Champs Elysees’, the only feeling in An Nan’s heart was that these government and wealthy offspring truly had money. Spending their days lingering in these high-end clubs, money surely flows like water. However, none of this concerned her; her only hope for tonight was that the overbearing Huo Bingxuan wouldn’t be present.
With a sense of uneasy speculation, she followed the waiter to the fifth floor. As she exited the elevator, she found herself surrounded by elegantly decorated private rooms.
Following the waiter through the corridor, they arrived at the door of a VIP room numbered 888 at the end, where she heard the waiter say to her, "Miss An, Third Young Master Xi is waiting for you inside."
"Okay, thank you."
"Then I’ll leave now."
"Mm."
After the waiter left, An Nan stood at the entrance of the room for a while longer, realizing that this was the same room Xi Shaoqi had taken her to before. Taking a deep breath, she pushed the door open.
The once noisy room suddenly fell silent. An Nan scanned the room, noting the ten or so individuals present, and felt somewhat uncomfortable under the gaze of so many eyes.
Forcing a smile at everyone, she quickly found Xi Shaoqi at the mahjong table, then walked over to him.
The commotion at the door had already caught Xi Shaoqi’s attention. He turned his head and happily smiled at the person walking towards him, then apologized and said, "Nannan, please wait a moment, I’ll finish this round and we can have dinner."
