Chapter 23: The Flames of Jealousy

  "What do you want?" Zhong Xiaofei let out a soft sigh, thinking why every beautiful woman was so troublesome and nagging. He liked beautiful women, but the trouble that came with them was something he could avoid if possible. Now there was a big problem - as soon as he got close to Chen Meisha, those eyes that seemed to be capable of killing someone would definitely shoot over.

  "Not so fast, first you have to tell me your name and where you work," Chen Meisha said with a serious expression, "otherwise what if you blackmail me in the future?"

  "Okay, I'm Zhong Xiaofei, 24 years old, elementary school education, hard to find a job, born timid, poor health..." Zhong Xiaofei looked pitiful.

  Chen Meisha's face was stern, suppressing her laughter, and she remembered the three words "Zhong Xiaofei" in her heart. Behind her, Luo Jing had already burst out laughing loudly. After holding it in for a couple of seconds, Chen Meisha also couldn't help but laugh out loud.

  Liu Yuxin's face was ashen, his eyes seemed to be able to kill people, and he had already killed Zhong Xiaofei several times.

  "Dude, you're really good at making jokes..." The other two boys couldn't help but want to laugh. One of them was slender, wearing a blue and white t-shirt and gray jeans, with curly hair and an unruly gaze, his hands always stuck in his pockets, giving off a rockstar vibe; later I found out his name was Zhang Wen. The other boy's name was Peng Sida, Peng Sida was refined and courteous, wearing glasses with golden frames, looking a bit shy.

  Later, Zhong Xiaofei also found out that these two boys were actually rich second-generation kids too. Today was a gathering of the rich second generation. It's just that Zhang Wen and Peng Sida weren't as showy as Liu Yuxin.

  Zhong Xiaofei nodded and smiled at the two in a friendly manner, then turned to Chen Meisha and said, "Now, can I go?"

  "Of course we can go, but the private room is yours, we can't use it for free," Chen Meisha said very seriously.

  "Then give me a thousand yuan, as a package fee..." Zhong Xiaofei said indifferently.

  "But if I gave you money, you wouldn't accept it either, we're friends after all, how could you bear to take it?" Chen Meisha pretended not to hear his words and continued, "So we can only invite you to sit down and have a drink..."

  Liu Yuxin finally couldn't help it, "Meisha, if he wants to leave, let him go! He's not even our friend, how can he attend the gathering?"

  "Why can't we?" Chen Meisha pouted, "I invited him so I can! Besides, this private room is his anyway! Shouldn't we thank him or something?"

  Liu Yuxin was speechless, her face flushing bright red.

  Zhong Xiaofei stayed behind. As for beauties, he had always been welcoming to them, but today he was only being troublesome because he was worried about trouble, and since he couldn't avoid it, he could only face it calmly.

  The private room was clean and tidy. Zhong Xiaofei followed Chen Meisha and her friends in, sat down. Chen Meisha introduced her friends to Zhong Xiaofei, Zhang Wen and Peng Sida were lukewarm towards him, while Liu Yuxin's face turned iron-green.

  Chen Meisha and Luo Jing, two beautiful women, sat down and started whispering to each other. They couldn't hear what they were saying, only Luo Jing's giggles could be heard. Zhang Wen and Peng Sida sat down, one holding a microphone and the other a remote control, starting to sing along with the songs on the large LCD screen. Liu Yuxin ignored his two companions' greetings, his eyes fixed on Zhong Xiaofei's face. His eyes were filled with jealous anger.

  Zhong Xiaofei didn't care, propping up his second leg, sitting on the sofa with a big smile, thinking to himself "You're so annoying, you can't even pick up girls yourself, and now you're taking it out on me? If you've got what it takes, then go ahead!"

  Too lazy to look at Liu Yuxin, her eyes turned to Chen Meisha and Luo Jing, the two little beauties were still whispering and laughing, Zhong Xiaofei didn't know what they were talking about, but guessed it was related to herself, because Luo Jing would occasionally turn her head to glance over.

  "Dazed" is a powerful rock music, after Peng Si Da sang Wang Fei's "Legend" with difficulty, Zhang Wen changed the music to "Dazed" and jumped in front of the screen, starting to sway wildly with the music. His curly hair flew up, like a hippie. In the middle, he tried to pull Liu Yuxin to dance with him, but Liu Yuxin was not in the mood and roughly pushed his hand away.

  Peng Si Da stood up and jumped with Zhang Wen together.

  It's great to be young.

  The music was filled with wildness and unbridled passion, surging with hot blood, shaking the eardrums. Zhong Xiaofei sat on the sofa, suddenly feeling a little dazed, and a beautiful shadow flashed before her eyes.

  Not Wu Yuejie, nor Li Xiaowei, but Li Xiaoran!

  Just like a wound that was slowly healing, it was suddenly poked again and started bleeding profusely. Memories that were desperately hidden and wanted to be forgotten came flooding back like a tidal wave.

  Zhong Xiaofei recalled that at that time, he took Li Xiao Ran to the bar to have fun, and every time he especially liked to go crazy in this Latin rock... He would kiss her, her tongue was sweet, with a starry flavor, her twin peaks were high, during the rocking, she would shake violently, shaking Zhong Xiaofei's whole body soft, only one place was iron-hard...

  "Stop!" Luo Jing suddenly stood up and turned off the music.

  The music suddenly stopped.

  Zhong Xiaofei opened his eyes and saw a large glass of whiskey placed in front of him. Chen Meisha smiled coquettishly, "Come on, let's have a drink together."

  "No," Zhong Xiaofei rubbed his temples, "I still have work tomorrow, you guys drink, I should get going too..."

  "Come on, just one cup," Chen Meisha forced the wine glass into his hand, her small hands were smooth and delicate, touching Zhong Xiaofei's wrist made him feel a tingling sensation. Zhong Xiaofei's eyes involuntarily swept across her chest, lingering for a moment at the high place before taking the cup.

  Chen Meisha didn't notice Zhong Xiaofei's gaze, but Liu Yuxin, who had been staring at Zhong Xiaofei all along, did. His jealous eyes were almost spitting fire. Since entering the private room, Chen Meisha hadn't said a word to Liu Yuxin, always whispering in Luo Jing's ear, and now she was being so intimate with Zhong Xiaofei, Liu Yuxin was about to go crazy.

  "Come on, let's have a toast!" Luo Jing called out to everyone to raise their glasses together.

  Zhong Xiaofei finished drinking and stood up.

  "What are you doing?" Chen Meisha felt a little tense, thinking he was going to run away.

  "Toilet." Zhong Xiaofei pushed open the door and left the private room.

  Chen Meisha was worried, but Zhong Xiaofei went to the toilet, and as a girl, she would definitely be too embarrassed to follow.

  "Waiting for you, come back quickly!" Chen Meisha said.

  Zhong Xiaofei smiled and waved her hand.

  "I'm going too!" Liu Yuxin downed a cup of wine and followed out with an ashen face.

  The toilet was at the end of the corridor in the suite, Zhong Xiaofei walked in, relieved himself, then turned on the faucet to wash his face and wake himself up.

  Suddenly, there were footsteps behind him, and someone walked quietly towards him.

  The toilet was bustling with people, and the sound of footsteps was normal, but Zhong Xiaofei suddenly felt a hint of danger. He stood up straight, turned around, and saw a beer bottle flying towards him!

  It was Liu Yuxin who took action. He followed Zhong Xiaofei into the toilet, found a beer bottle on the way, and saw that Zhong Xiaofei was washing his face with his head down. Without saying a word, he rushed up and swung the bottle at the back of Zhong Xiaofei's head!

  This time Liu Yuxin was furious with Zhong Xiaofei.

  Zhong Xiaofei reacted extremely quickly, first with a nimble flash, dodging the beer bottle, then grabbing Liu Yuxin's wrist that was holding the bottle, and kicking his leg. Liu Yuxin lost balance, gritting his teeth in pain, almost falling over, but he persisted, grasping the bottle tightly with both hands, refusing to let go, and even used his knee to violently strike Zhong Xiaofei's abdomen, letting out a beast-like howl from his mouth.

  Zhong Xiaofei didn't hold back, elbowing Liu Yuxin in the face, leaving him dizzy and disoriented, before kicking his calf.

  "Ahh," Liu Yuxin suffered two consecutive heavy blows and finally couldn't hold on, covering his calf as he fell to the ground. As he fell, he instinctively stretched out his hand to grab the washstand, but not only did he fail to grab it, his nose also hit the washstand, breaking his nasal bridge and causing blood to flow out. Liu Yuxin lay on the ground with his four limbs in the air, his temper was fierce, but his fighting ability was really not good.

  Zhong Xiaofei knocked him down, put the wine bottle he had grabbed on the washbasin, calmly washed his face, wiped it dry, and walked out of the bathroom without even looking at Liu Yuxin who was lying on the ground.

  As for fighting, Zhong Xiaofei is absolutely a master. In college, he was not only the school's athletic champion but also the top fighter.

  Liu Yuxin hugged her legs and cursed loudly on the ground.

  Zhong Xiaofei walked out of the toilet and happened to run into Zhang Wen and Peng Sida. Zhong Xiaofei smiled faintly at the two, as if nothing had happened, but both of them heard Liu Yuxin's curses in the toilet and quickly separated Zhong Xiaofei, rushing into the toilet.

  Chen Meisha and Luo Jing stood at the door of the private room, stretching their necks to look.

  Zhong Xiaofei walked away, smiling, "Sorry, I have to go first."

  "What's going on between you and Liu Yuxin? What happened?" Chen Meisha asked worriedly. Her big eyes sparkled like the stars in the sky.

  "It's nothing, he just accidentally fell in the bathroom," Zhong Xiaofei said with a smile, turning to leave.

  "Hey!" Chen Meisha shouted at him.

  Zhong Xiaofei didn't look back, quickly leaving. Recently, there have been a lot of troubles, he didn't want to cause more trouble. When he left, he also didn't greet Nan Ge, the relationship between the two of them didn't need greetings.

  A man left the bar, hailed a taxi home, and it was almost one o'clock in the morning. The streets were sparse with vehicles, only the bright streetlights shining brightly. The night sky was very dark, and just as he arrived home, it suddenly started drizzling, cooling down the hot weather significantly. Zhong Xiaofei got out of the car, paid the fare, stood under the building, looked up at his own window a few times, the window was blacked out, no lights on, apparently Xiao Wei had already fallen asleep.

  Zhong Xiaofei went upstairs, quietly unlocking the door and entering the house. He walked to the bedroom door and listened inside for a moment, hearing Li Xiaowei's even and sweet breathing. This little girl was sleeping quite soundly. Zhong Xiaofei had an urge to push open the door and take a look at Xiaowei's sleeping face, but he restrained himself. "Who made me her brother-in-law?"

  It was probably due to drinking too much, that night Zhong Xiao Fei's head ached terribly and he slept very restlessly. In his dreams, three beautiful women kept circling around him, smiling seductively at him. He tried with all his might to open his eyes wide, but still couldn't see the faces of the three women clearly, only their long hair fluttering and their laughter like silver bells.

  In the morning, Zhong Xiaofei was woken up by itchiness.

  "Brother-in-law, wake up!" A soft and sweet laughter, Xiao Wei was wearing a suspender vest, squatting on the edge of the sofa, her hands grasping her long hair and shaking it vigorously, her big eyes blinking. Her long hair scattered down, the ends tickling Zhong Xiaofei's cheek.
