BOOM!

Liu Fengchun felt as if he'd been struck by lightning. His face turned deathly pale, and he stared dumbfounded at Chu Xiangxue. He couldn't believe she would utter such words, not even in his wildest dreams.

Could this stinking beggar have deceived Chu Xiangxue? That must be it. Otherwise, with her status and background, how could she possibly want to marry a stinking beggar? If I can expose him, will she be grateful to me? And what if that gratitude makes her fall for me?

At this thought, Liu Fengchun grew excited and hurriedly said, "Chu Heavenly Immortal, this guy is just a stinking beggar! Besides, he's already married!"

"If he's a beggar, then you're worse than a beggar. And I know he's married, so what? I don't care," Chu Xiangxue said indifferently.

Though her voice wasn't loud, its lethality was nuclear. The blow not only made Liu Fengchun's face turn even paler, but it also sent his entire body into a tremor.

Lin Xiao, however, ignored his shock. "Wait for me a moment!"

Chu Xiangxue nodded with a gentle smile.

Lin Xiao suddenly wrapped his arm around Liu Fengchun's neck.

"Damn it, you stinking beggar! Let the hell go of me!" Liu Fengchun yelled, struggling with all his might. But as soon as he started to resist, Lin Xiao applied force.

The immense strength clamped down on Liu Fengchun's neck like iron pincers, and the scumbag's face instantly turned a dark, purplish red. He couldn't even breathe, let alone struggle.

Lin Xiao dragged this piece of trash into the security office, where Pei Donglai was taking a sip of water. He then tossed Liu Fengchun onto the ground.

"Captain, leave him to me," Pei Donglai said gravely.

"Fine. Cut out his tongue and send him back to the Su Family. Tell them that if they dare to act so recklessly again, I won't mind erasing the Su Family from the face of the earth!"

A fierce, murderous aura emanated from Lin Xiao, making even Pei Donglai, a former War God, shudder. He quickly responded, "Yes, sir!"

Liu Fengchun had just caught his breath when he heard Lin Xiao's words and instantly exploded with rage. "You stinking beggar! You just try and touch me! If I don't kill you, I'll take your damn surname!"

Before he could finish, Pei Donglai kicked him squarely in the head.

BANG!

Liu Fengchun was knocked out cold. Pei Donglai hauled him up and carried him out of the security office.

Lin Xiao also stepped out and waved at Chu Xiangxue, who was standing not far away. Chu Xiangxue, still in her disguise, offered a slight smile and walked over to him.

Once inside the security room, Chu Xiangxue removed her disguise again. Even though he had just witnessed her stunning beauty, Lin Xiao was still struck by how breathtakingly gorgeous she was.

"Let's get straight to the point. I'm married," Lin Xiao said, cutting to the chase.

Chu Xiangxue smiled. "I know."

"No, I mean I can't possibly divorce my wife. So, I can't marry you."

"That's fine. I can be your mistress," she replied.

Lin Xiao was speechless. This girl looks so gentle and frail, but how is she so utterly impervious? One Shao Mei'er is already enough to give me a headache. Adding Chu Xiangxue to the mix… this is going to be unbearable.

"Chu Xiangxue, listen to me. I will explain this to my master. You don't have to marry me because of him!"

"No, no, no. I want to marry you, and it has nothing to do with your master. How should I put this… While your master might be the Patriarch of the Immortal Doctor Sect, our Chu Family is the number one noble family in Shengjing and a distinguished member of the A9 Alliance. In terms of both background and power, we are in no way inferior to your master. Oh, right. You might not know what the A9 is, but that's fine. Just know that it's very powerful!"

Lin Xiao looked at Chu Xiangxue, amused and exasperated. So she's my subordinate after all?

"Then why do you want to marry me?"

"Because you're handsome!"

Lin Xiao laughed at her answer. He gave her a thumbs-up and was about to speak when a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Lin Xiao, who is she?"

Lin Xiao's scalp tingled. He truly hadn't expected Su Qingning to suddenly appear. Shao Mei'er had already caused more than enough friction with Su Qingning. If she saw Chu Xiangxue now… Wouldn't she just explode on the spot?

Lin Xiao was about to explain, but Su Qingning had already walked in, her expression icy.

"Ah, you must be Miss Su Qingning, correct?" Chu Xiangxue asked with a smile.

Su Qingning was about to speak, but she froze. Although she wasn't an avid celebrity follower, she knew who Chu Xiangxue was; she was something of a fan of her music. When she fully registered that it was Chu Xiangxue, Su Qingning was utterly shocked. She never expected the person with Lin Xiao to be Chu Xiangxue, currently the most popular superstar in the country. And most importantly, she knew her name.

However, upon seeing Chu Xiangxue, Su Qingning's anger instantly cooled. After all, Chu Xiangxue was a massively popular star. She couldn't possibly be smitten with Lin Xiao like Shao Mei'er was.

"Hello, Miss Chu. I'm Su Qingning."

Chu Xiangxue studied Su Qingning for a moment before smiling. "You truly have a beauty that could topple nations."

Su Qingning blushed at the compliment. "Miss Chu, you flatter me. In my opinion, you're the one with nation-toppling beauty."

Chu Xiangxue smiled. "Alright, we both have nation-toppling beauty."

Su Qingning breathed a sigh of relief. "Miss Chu, welcome to our bar."

Chu Xiangxue smiled back. "Qing Ning, you can just call me by my name, or Xiang Xue. There's no need to be so polite."

"Ah, well… alright then!" To be frank, Su Qingning felt a bit uneasy. Chu Xiangxue was acting far too familiar, whereas she didn't know her at all.

However, Su Qingning figured that since Chu Xiangxue was at the bar, she must be here to relax. The fans at the door were probably too rabid, which was why she had hidden in the security room. All she had to do was provide her with good service.

With that in mind, Su Qingning said, "Xiang… Xiang Xue, welcome once again. If you'd like to go inside and have some fun, I can lead you in through the entrance!"

"Sounds great!" Chu Xiangxue said with a smile. Her smile was utterly charming. Although it wasn't as flirtatious as Su Qingning's or as seductively coquettish as Shao Mei'er's, Chu Xiangxue's smile was as pleasant and refreshing as a spring breeze.

"Xiang Xue, please follow me," Su Qingning said.

But Chu Xiangxue simply smiled and asked, "Can I have Lin Xiao serve me?"

Su Qingning's heart sank. That bastard. He's only just met her and already told her his name. What a shameless rogue.

"Xiang Xue, I'm very sorry, but Lin Xiao is just a security guard. And, well, he looks a bit odd. I'm afraid he won't be able to serve you properly!"

Chu Xiangxue smiled gracefully. "Odd-looking? I think he's quite handsome!"

Su Qingning's heart skipped a beat. No way. Is the same drama that happened with Shao Mei'er about to play out again with Chu Xiangxue? When Shao Mei'er insisted that Lin Xiao was handsome, I questioned her taste. But now that a top superstar like Chu Xiangxue is saying he's handsome, I'm starting to wonder if there's something wrong with my own judgment.

She couldn't help but glance at Lin Xiao. Disheveled and dressed like a beggar. How was that handsome?

Lin Xiao, however, just grinned. "Miss Chu has excellent taste!"

"Hmph, you shut up!" Su Qingning snapped.

Just then, Chu Xiangxue said, "Qing Ning, if Lin Xiao can't serve me, then I won't trouble you any longer."

Su Qingning knew very well that keeping Chu Xiangxue happy would bring significant benefits to the bar. She was, after all, the hottest celebrity in the country right now. But for some reason, hearing Chu Xiangxue insist on having Lin Xiao serve her made her deeply uncomfortable.

"Xiang Xue, I would love for you to enjoy your time at the bar, but I'm sorry, Lin Xiao really can't serve you."

Chu Xiangxue smiled and nodded. "Alright, then I won't impose. However, I plan on staying in Jinling City for a while, so I'll be back."

With that, she gave Lin Xiao a radiant smile, then turned and made a swift exit.

An unprecedented sense of crisis washed over Su Qingning.
