Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

Shen Chen, however, asked Zhou Mochen, who had just returned from the phone call and was about to sit down, "You're already this busy after just returning to Beijing?"

“It’s a private matter,” Zhou Mochen turned to look at Xu Su beside him, took her hand and said, “Come with me somewhere tomorrow.”

Xu Su asked curiously, "Where are we going?"

"You'll see when you get there." Zhou Mochen chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't sell you out."

"Still keeping it a secret?" Xu Su blinked. "If I really get sold out, you can just hide and cry."

“That won’t do.” Shen Chen interjected, “Don’t worry. It’s hard to say about other places, but in the capital, even if someone dared to sell you, I guarantee no one would dare to buy you.”

“…Shen Chen!” Xu Su shouted angrily, slamming her hand on his elbow, which was resting on the table: “What do you mean by this!”

He took her casual remark seriously and started analyzing it!

As if she were really stupid enough to be sold out, Xu Su glared at him and said, "You're the one who'd be sold out!"

Zhou Mochen reacted quickly, reaching out to stop her raised hand: "Be careful not to burn yourself with hot tea."

"Exactly, how can a little girl be so fierce?" Shen Chen also looked over with a smile: "Don't you know that a gentleman uses words, not fists?"

In Xu Su's eyes, this sly fellow deserved a beating, and she was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.

Zhou Mochen glanced at Shen Chen: "Shut up."

"Okay, okay..." Shen Chen raised his hands, turned his head to Xu Su and smiled, "I was wrong. Even if I were sold out, our classmate Xu wouldn't accept it, right?"

Xu Su: "..."

She wouldn't take those words seriously. Shen Chen wasn't someone to be trifled with; he'd be more likely to betray someone else.

Xu Su huffed angrily, ignored him, and started playing with Zhou Mochen's hand.

Shen Chen sat for a while, then took a phone call and said goodbye before leaving.

Zhou Mochen showed Xu Su around the villa for a short while, and after they got to know each other quickly, it was getting late.

As dusk settled and the clock struck seven, Xu Su was led by Zhou Mochen into a club, and the two went straight to the top floor.

As soon as Xu Su stepped out of the elevator and turned the corner, she saw Shen Chen leaning against the viewing glass at the end of the corridor, a cigarette between his fingers, casually watching the pedestrians passing by below.

From his perspective, the people walking on the ground looked as tiny as ants.

This person seems a bit emo...

But what's unfair is that even Shen Gongzi's emo exudes an unapproachable aura.

Xu Su was puzzled. He was fine in the afternoon, so why did he become depressed after only a few hours?

She shouted "Hi!" in that direction.

Shen Chen looked up, his eyes flickering slightly. He straightened up, instantly switching from a melancholy state to a nonchalant tone. He pointed to the open door of the private room next to him and said with a smile, "We've been waiting for you. Come in."

Xu Su had been here many times in her previous life and was quite familiar with the place. It was a members-only private club, and even having money didn't guarantee entry. There were so many rich and powerful people in the capital that if a tile fell from the roof, you could easily knock down a section chief.

People from every social class in Beijing have their own circles, and outsiders can only get in by being introduced by someone in that circle. This club is no exception.

The entire top floor has only two private rooms, which are reserved for private use and not open to the public. They have a separate observation deck, a chess and card room, a karaoke room, and suites for rest.

In short, whatever the young masters want to do, this place can provide a one-stop service, so there's no need to go anywhere else.

Inside the private room, the round wooden dining table remained unoccupied.

There were a few people standing in twos and threes on the viewing platform, and someone was playing chess at a chess table next to it.

Before Xu Su even reached the door, she heard people inside talking about her.

It was Xie Si. He was sitting next to Jiang Baiyi, watching him play chess with his arm around a girl's waist, but he kept talking: "Baiyi, what kind of woman do you think would make our young master Zhou's iron tree bloom?"

"I have no idea about that." Jiang Baiyi wasn't particularly interested in his brothers' women. He picked up a chess piece and placed it down, saying, "They'll be here soon, then you can take a closer look."

"Don't you have any curiosity?" Xie Si said. "He's so protective of him, forbidding this and being careful about that. Maybe he really is a celestial being descended to earth."

Jiang Baiyi wasn't curious at all. Rather than being curious about Zhou Mochen's woman, he was more interested in figuring out how to win this game from Tu Yu.

He hummed in agreement and casually said, "Since you've caught Brother Zhou's eye, you must have some advantages that other women can't match."

Upon hearing this, Xie Si smiled thoughtfully, about to say something more, when just then the person they were talking about appeared at the door of the private room, and everyone inside looked up.

Xu Su stood at the door, looking in Xie Si's direction. She tilted her head, smiled at him, waved to him, and pointed to herself, saying, "This is what I look like."

Everyone: "..."

There was silence in the room.

The girl at the door was wearing a fuchsia Chanel-style dress that reached her knees, with nude low-heeled sandals on her feet. Her hair was slightly curled and fell down. It was a gentle, sweet, and non-threatening outfit.

However, her own radiance was already dazzling, which seemed extremely contradictory when it clashed with her gentle and sweet attire.

The girl slightly raised her eyelashes, her sparkling eyes shimmering, and her gaze could make anyone forget where they were for a moment.

This kind of beauty cannot be contained by clothes.

Even a tattered rag couldn't hide her beauty.

The men in the private room were all worldly-wise and experienced. Any woman who caught their eye, even if she was just a hostess at a nightclub, had gone through rigorous screening and was definitely a beauty among beauties.

They'd seen all sorts of stunning beauties, yet even so, they couldn't help but be breathless and speechless at this moment.

The room was so quiet that no one spoke for several seconds. Xu Su blinked and greeted her familiarly. Was it really that impactful?

Could it be that they never expected the girl Zhou Mochen brought would have such a personality?

Compared to her indifferent attitude in her previous life, her current personality is indeed a bit too unconventional.

Xu Su was lost in thought when Zhou Mochen pulled her inside with a blank expression.

Shen Chen, standing nearby, couldn't help but laugh and said, "Xie Er, you were caught talking about people behind their backs this time. How does it feel?"

His words broke the silence in the room. Xie Si came back to his senses, coughed lightly, and smiled amicably at Xu Su, saying, "I'm sorry, Miss Xu, I'm just a bit of a chatterbox."

Xu Su thought to herself, "I already knew that."

The people in the private room all had some personal connections with Zhou Mochen, so Xu Su had a lot of contact with them in her previous life. In her opinion, Xie Si was the only one in their circle who was true to himself.

After all, he has an older brother who is his own flesh and blood. He is not in the family business to inherit the family business. He has been used to playing since he was a child. He is a rich, foolish, playful and lecherous young master.
