After turning into a rare female, she refused the bosses' exclusive favor
Chapter 79 Hongmen Banquet
Baili Fengxing led the two to the restaurant.
The decoration of White Tiger Mansion is much more luxurious than that of Laurel Manor. Even the restaurant is very spacious and high-profile.
Baili Zhui came up to them with a smile, "You two, are you satisfied with this place?"
"It's just passable." Collio fiddled with his manicure and said lightly.
Links and Parker were obviously dissatisfied with each other's attitude. When they were about to argue, they were stopped by Baili Fengxing with a look.
Then he turned to Collio and said respectfully, "I apologize for my poor hospitality, Sir. I hope you will forgive me."
"Well~ Maybe they are used to living in the original place. Who knew they were asked to move here without any prior notice? Maybe they are not used to the new environment~" Collio's pretentious tone made all the males present feel nauseous.
"Ha, ha ha... If Sir Collio needs anything, just let me know. I'll ask my servants to take care of it." Baili Zhui forced a smile.
"Thank you very much, Lord Baili. I will make a list right away~" Collio was not polite and even asked for more.
But Baili Zhui didn't care. After all, his primary goal was to match females with his nephew Baili Fengxing. In his eyes, Collio was just a clown.
"Then please take a seat!" Baili Zhui greeted the two of them politely.
Baili Fengxing even attentively opened a chair for Pu Xila and invited him to sit down.
Collio on the side joked: "Master Baili is such a gentleman, please help me move the chair!"
Baili Fengxing suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and politely helped the other party pull out the chair and invited him to sit down.
Both Links and Parker gave him admiring looks, as if to say—
"Young Master, you have worked hard!"
Dinner officially began after everyone was seated.
"Pa pa!" Baili Zhui clapped his hands.
Soon servants appeared and brought delicious dishes to the table and placed them in front of the people.
Although the food on the table is very exquisite, the taste is relatively ordinary. There are no special cooking techniques or seasoning methods, just the taste of the ingredients themselves.
"I wonder if this meal suits your taste?" Baili Zhui was very confident, as if he was waiting for the female's praise.
Collio was the first to speak: "To be honest, it's not as good as the food made by my family... ahem, not as good as the food made by a chef I know at Laurel Manor."
Collio originally wanted to praise Pushik, but when he thought about showing off the female cooking for him in front of others, the uncle and nephew would definitely find a handle on him and accuse them of abusing the female, so he immediately changed his words.
Baili Fengxing just felt that the other party was being stubborn. This time, his uncle hired a top-notch chef from Area A. Even the upper class and dignitaries would find it difficult to meet him. His appointments were even scheduled until next year.
"What do you think, young lady?" Baili Fengxing looked at Pushik and asked for his opinion.
He just couldn't believe that such a top chef couldn't conquer the taste buds of the female in front of him.
Unexpectedly, Pu Xike said: "Not bad..."
His tone was full of reluctance and politeness. Baili Fengxing's face froze, and his original confident look was gone.
"I didn't know that General Zhige's family had such a great chef. It seems that our arrangements are not good enough and we have neglected you two." Baili Zhui came to the rescue of his nephew.
"It's not Lord Baili's fault. After all, our 'chef' is exclusive to Laurel Manor. Most people can't even eat his food! Don't you think so? Dear~" Collio winked at the girl.
Pushik smiled and nodded, "Yes!"
The two of them sang the same tune, which made the others a little confused. They just thought that it was a good way to stop the war. They could actually find a good cook to capture the female's stomach.
Seeing that he had lost at the table, Baili Zhui hurried to make up for it and started chatting about family matters. "Speaking of which, Miss Alice, have you remembered any clues about your home planet recently? I promised that I would help you find your family."
"No, no." Pushik lowered his head pretending to be disappointed, with a somewhat lonely look in his eyes, which made people feel distressed.
Baili Zhui consoled her and took the opportunity to give his opinion, "Miss, don't be sad. Why don't you come with me to the Interstellar Female Protection Association? Maybe there will be information about your identity there."
Baili Zhui's proposal was exactly what Pu Xike wanted, and everything was within her expectations.
Pushik raised his head and said with some concern, "But...how do we get to the Interstellar Female Protection Association? It sounds like it's very far away..."
After all, this exiled planet is located in a remote galaxy in the universe. To reach other planets, a spacecraft with wormhole jumping technology is required.
Coincidentally, there is a manned spacecraft docked in the White Tiger Mansion, which is also the only spacecraft on this planet that can fly into outer space.
Therefore, Pu Xike asked knowingly and pretended to be innocent, just to make Baili uncle and nephew fall into the trap he designed.
When Baili Zhui saw that Pu Xike was so serious, he knew that his bet was right, so he gave a look to his nephew beside him.
Baili Fengxing understood what he meant and immediately replied, "Don't worry, Miss. The private spacecraft of our White Tiger Group happens to be parked on this planet. If you need it, we can escort you at any time."
"Really?" Pu Xike was surprised, obviously he had achieved his goal.
"But..." Baili Fengxing spoke with some embarrassment.
"But what?"
There is no free lunch in the world. Pu Xike had expected that Baili Fengxing would make conditions to him.
"If we want to take you away, we need the consent of the top leaders. But you also know what females mean to this planet, so..." Baili Fengxing paused deliberately, meaning that the top leaders would not easily send away precious females.
But this was just a tactic used by the Baili uncle and nephew to first suppress and then praise. They threw out the difficulties first so that they could negotiate terms with the other party.
As expected, after Baili Fengxing pretended to be embarrassed, Baili Zhui added, "Actually, there is another way to get the top management to agree..."
The purpose of this Hongmen Banquet finally came to light.
"Haha~" Collio sneered. The uncle and nephew's plan was about to hit him in the face.
Pu Xike pretended not to know and asked eagerly, "What's the solution?"
"If you were from the Baili family, we could legitimately take you away from this planet, and the higher-ups would naturally have no reason to refuse to let you go," Baili Zhui explained.
"Mr. Baili, do you mean to marry my dear?" Collio's eyes were teasing and he didn't beat around the bush.
"Ahem... I think Sir Collio has misunderstood. I just want Miss Alice and my nephew to be a fake couple."
Baili Zhui's tactic of retreating in order to advance does not force the female to form a pair while taking advantage of her misfortune, but also allows him to cultivate the relationship between the two over a period of time.
Although they are a fake couple, in the eyes of outsiders they are real husband and wife. Maybe they will fall in love with each other and turn the fake relationship into reality.
What's more, his nephew's appearance, ability and family background are outstanding among all the young males. Baili Zhui firmly believes that it is only a matter of time before Pu Xike falls in love with Baili Fengxing.
Right now, what his nephew needed was just an opportunity, an opportunity to get closer to the female, and Baili Zhui was creating such an opportunity for Baili Fengxing.
