His face was filled with terror. When he had nowhere left to retreat, he gritted his teeth, a fierce expression on his face, and pulled a sharp knife from his waist...

Lin Xi's lips curled slightly, her gaze casually sweeping over the small knife in the other person's hand, a hint of coldness creeping onto her lips.

She raised her hand slightly and dodged as he charged at her with the knife. She grabbed his wrist, applied a little force, and with a flick of her wrist, the knife fell to the ground.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Young Master Yu winced in pain and gritted his teeth as he said, "That woman sent me your photo in exchange for ten million. It has nothing to do with me."

Lin Xi paused slightly, released her hand, and her eyes narrowed. "Exchange it for ten million? Isn't she a friend of the young master and Young Master Ye? Does she still need your money?"

"Pah!" Young Master Yu spat, and seeing that she had no intention of continuing, he quickly stood up, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

"Her? A friend of Young Master Huang and Young Master Ye? Does she even deserve it? She even got in using my card." Young Master Yu sneered as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, his face full of disdain.

Lin Xi frowned slightly and pondered, "But a lobby manager did say she was their friend..."

Lin Xi suddenly looked up at Yu Shao and asked abruptly, "The Young Master Ye you mentioned wouldn't happen to be Ye Jinran, would it?"

Yu Shao was startled. Did the person in front of him know Ye Shao? He suddenly recalled their conversation in the private room and exclaimed in shock, "You wouldn't happen to be Lin Xi, would you?!"

Lin Xi raised an eyebrow noncommittally. "You know me?"

It's over, it's really over now. He's offended someone even Young Master Ye fears.

Yu Shao said with a sense of despair, "Sister Xi, we've really messed up this whole thing. Ye Shao and I are friends. If I had known it was you, I would never have had this thought, even if it meant my death."

"So it's okay if it's not me? You think you can do whatever you want?" Lin Xi's expression turned even colder after hearing this.

"It was my fault, I will never dare to do it again, Sister Xi, please forgive me for Young Master Ye's sake." As he spoke, Young Master Yu knelt down. He knew that if Young Master Ye found out about this, he would be finished.

"You mean Ye Jinran came today too?" Lin Xi looked at him kneeling and begging for mercy without any sympathy. It was only because it was her that he had met him today. If it were someone else, wouldn't he have been ruined for nothing?

"Yes, they said you had a dinner party with your colleagues today, and you were the one treating. They sent someone to give the order. It must be that bitch who impersonated you. I will never let her get away with this," Young Master Yu said obsequiously.

"Then lead the way, I'll go take a look."

"Alright, Sister Xi, I'll show you the way right away."

.......

"Hey, Sister Xi? What brings you here?" Huang Shao immediately saw Lin Xi slowly walk in. Seeing her gentle smile, the private room instantly fell silent.

They remembered that she had the same expression the last time she hit someone.

The moment Lin Xi entered, Ye Jinran's eyes softened instantly.

"Young Master Yu, what are you doing with Sister Xi?" Young Master Huang asked, noticing the man following behind Lin Xi.

"We bumped into each other, isn't that a coincidence?" Young Master Yu quickly replied.

Ye Jinran noticed that his eyes were somewhat evasive, and after observing the wrinkles on his body, she understood and smiled slightly.

This is probably another round of training.

"Xixi, you're here. How was the hospitality?" Ye Jinran got up and walked over.

"It's alright, the hospitality is quite good. I just heard that some of your friends came to visit our private room." Lin Xi said with a light laugh.

“No, it’s just you in the private room, Sister Xi.” Huang Shao immediately replied, while glancing at Yu Shao beside him.

Young Master Yu quickly stepped forward and briefly explained the whole situation.

Ye Jinran met Lin Xi's teasing gaze and was momentarily at a loss for words, but the feeling vanished in an instant.

It seemed to be the first time Lin Xi had seen him with any expression other than his gentle demeanor.

Huang Shao quickly said, his voice full of apology, "Sister Xi, this is all my fault. Brother Ye clearly said to check, but I forgot. I made such a big blunder. It's all my fault."

Lin Xi waved her hand, "It's nothing, I just came to see you. I'll head back now. By the way, are you treating today?" Lin Xi looked at Ye Jinran.

Ye Jinran nodded, regaining her usual gentle demeanor, and asked with a light laugh, "What, are you trying to throw money at me again?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xi's lips suddenly curved into a slight smile, her slender eyebrows exuding a captivating charm.

[Ye Jinran's favorability rating has reached 72.]

"Why, can't you?"

"Okay." Ye Jinran looked at her with a gentle expression.

"Then it's settled. I'll be going now." Lin Xi said, then turned and left.

Ye Jinran's expression turned indifferent, and her gaze toward Young Master Yu was cold.

Yu Shao had no choice but to tell the whole story. Ye Jinran nodded towards the shadows, and Yu Shao was immediately pulled out, his mouth still stuffed with something, so he could only whimper.

Everyone present was shocked. Ye Jinran glanced at the crowd with an indifferent expression, her eyes full of warning.

The woman, who had been filled with resentment, finally snapped out of her reverie the moment Yu Shao was dragged away.

She must have been asking for trouble, actually trying to go against Sister Xi for the sake of someone who went bankrupt. Thankfully, she hasn't made a move yet, otherwise...

She was still terrified when she thought about it, her eyes filled with trembling fear.

Huang Shao stood to the side, trembling slightly. Seeing that Ye Shao didn't say anything, he breathed a sigh of relief and cautiously asked, "Brother Ye, should we still go to Sister Xi's place?"

"Go, why not go?" A tenderness, which he himself was unaware of, flashed in Ye Jinran's eyes.

Lin Xi went to the front desk first and recharged Ye Jinran's account with 100 million yuan.

Congratulations on receiving a cashback of 1000!

"Brother Ye, the receptionist sent a message saying that Sister Xi recharged your membership card with 100 million yuan." Young Master Huang said with a look of amazement when he saw the message.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. To be able to casually spend 100 million on a stranger, how could one not value money?

Ye Jinran's lips curled up slightly.

[Ye Jinran's favorability rating has reached 78.]

On her way back, Lin Xi paused for a second upon hearing the system's voice. When she pushed open the door to the private room, Qiaoqiao's smiling expression froze.

How did she end up here? Wasn't she...? Could Young Master Yu have brought her back?

Qiaoqiao started to feel uneasy, wondering what had gone wrong, but she could only force a smile and say, "Xixi, you're back! I just got back and couldn't find you. Where did you go to play?"

"Play? What fun can you possibly have in a place like a karaoke bar? We've been playing around like this for ages."

"Won't......"
