Chapter 645 The High-and-mighty, Two-Faced Academic Genius (Gong) VS The Unrestrained, Charming, and
With Bai Chengci joining them, the young men toned down their partying a bit. Since they couldn't go clubbing, the group of them idly drank and played cards, at least they didn't make the private room so chaotic anymore.
"This is an agreement for you to treat me to a meal and pay the bill. Please sign it."
After hearing that someone was going to pay for all the ladies in the room, the hotel manager came up with the agreement.
The agreement listed many types and quantities of wine, which Jiang Xiyu needed to confirm and sign before they could be served.
After Jiang Xiyu took it, he immediately flipped to the last page and signed it.
The hotel manager was all smiles when he received the signed agreement. After thanking the staff politely, he ordered some expensive wines.
When the drinks were served, one of the young men couldn't help but tease, "Why are you only paying for the ladies? Brother Jiang is being too discriminatory."
"Yeah, yeah, no wonder Brother Jiang was going downstairs to play earlier, turns out he was flirting with girls behind our backs."
"Paying the bill for all the ladies in the room, tsk tsk tsk, just how many suitors has he attracted, hahaha."
"I just saw it. Brother Jiang was surrounded by so many people he couldn't move. Being handsome really makes you popular; both men and women like him..."
The atmosphere in the private room became subtly tense the moment these words were spoken.
Xu Yunzhi's gaze kept drifting towards Jiang Xiyu, while Bai Chengci remained indifferent, as if it were none of her business, though her eyes were scrutinizing everyone.
Their eyes were all on the person sitting on the sofa.
Bai Chengci didn't know much about Jiang Xiyu's past, but what that young master said was indeed true.
Back in high school, not to mention the girls, several guys in their circle had expressed interest in Jiang Xiyu.
However, out of consideration for Zhou Xi and because Jiang Xiyu was not an easy person to deal with, everyone tacitly agreed not to bring it up directly. Unexpectedly, Xu Yunzhi actually managed to win him over later.
On the surface, the group of people were enjoying the show, but secretly they were all a little tempted. After all, the fact that Jiang Xiyu had been won over by a man meant that he might also be interested in men.
Rich kids are known for their extravagant lifestyles, especially since Jiang Xiyu is so attractive.
Even though they're all men, they have hormones and stuff too.
But when this stuff is on Jiang Xiyu, it's like an aphrodisiac, incredibly sexy, and anyone who sees him will be irresistibly aroused by his desire to conquer.
Just thinking about being able to hang out with someone like Jiang Xiyu makes me feel incredibly excited. It's as if someone has lit a fire in my heart, and the more I look at Jiang Xiyu, the brighter the fire burns.
Just like now, Jiang Xiyu is simply leaning back on the sofa in a casual posture, and her ambiguous smile is enough to make people's hearts itch.
Jiang Xiyu ignored their teasing and simply said, "I can afford to invite them, but if I invite you, I'm afraid I'll go bankrupt."
As soon as he finished speaking, a young master immediately flattered him, saying, "What are you saying? How could we possibly let you go bankrupt?"
Someone chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, why don't you treat us and we'll pay the bill?"
"Sure, round it up, so it's like you're treating us."
They weren't short of money; they just thought it sounded nice to be treated by Jiang Xiyu, so they all thought it was a good idea. The key point is that they were indeed subtly trying to curry favor with him.
After all, Jiang Xiyu is still single, isn't she?
Anyone can have a chance to play with him, no matter how much it's in Zhou Xi's way. What if Jiang Xiyu chooses them, just like he chose to be with Xu Yunzhi back then?
Jiang Xiyu, with one arm draped over the back of the sofa, listened to their conversation and chuckled softly: "So you really want me to treat you?"
Their tone made it sound like they had a chance, and the young men stared at him like a pack of dogs eyeing a piece of meat, as if they would wag their tails excitedly at Jiang Xiyu the moment he agreed.
However, before Jiang Xiyu could speak, Zhou Xi said, "That's enough."
His expression remained unchanged, but his voice was very deep and low, as if he was displeased.
Knowing they had no chance, the young men immediately switched to their usual frivolous smiles and brushed it off, as if their previous words were just a joke.
Seeing them joking like that, Lu Ziqi practically had his anger written all over his face.
However, he couldn't make a scene sitting next to Jiang Xiyu, so he glanced at the strong liquor on the table and casually made up an excuse, saying, "Damn it, let's play a game. The loser has to drink."
He won't believe in the road until he drinks these bastards to death.
Upon hearing this, one of the young masters laughed and said, "Alright, what do you want to play, Young Master Lu?"
They were bored.
Lu Ziqi said, "Playing cards, dice, bombs, darts, anything is fine."
"Let's start with poker."
"Okay, fill all the glasses."
After Lu Ziqi finished speaking, he beckoned to the waiter and gave him a few instructions.
A short while later, several waiters arrived pushing carts.
They filled the table with glasses from the cart and then began pouring drinks.
The drinks were poured over like flowing water, and the strong aroma of the liquor gradually filled the private room. The smell was so rich that it seemed like just a whiff of it could make you drunk.
Those who enjoy drinking don't find it a problem, but those who don't like drinking will find the taste unpleasant.
Sure enough, two more low coughs were heard from inside the private room.
Jiang Xiyu glanced in the direction of the sound and saw Bai Chengci covering her lips, frowning as if she was uncomfortable.
They clearly don't like this atmosphere, but they still have to come and interfere.
Jiang Xiyu felt quite helpless, but there was nothing she could say.
At this moment, a group of people who were already prepared suddenly asked, "Brother Zhou, Brother Jiang, are you guys coming to join in?"
Zhou Xi did not answer immediately, but looked at Jiang Xiyu instead.
Jiang Xiyu wasn't very interested, so she looked away and said, "You guys play first."
His answer was exactly the same as Zhou Xi's answer, and the young masters were quite sensible.
Just as they were about to begin, Lu Ziqi seemed to remember something and reminded them, "Aren't there two more people?"
Now, the group of young masters turned their attention to Xu Yunzhi and Bai Chengci.
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot, where are Xu Yunzhi and Bai Xueshen? Are you guys in?"
Xu Yunzhi: "I'm not playing."
Bai Chengci: "Play."
The two voices rang out almost simultaneously.
When Xu Yunzhi heard Bai Chengci say he was playing, she worriedly said, "Brother Chengci, they are very good at this game. You...you'd better not play, lest you get drunk later."
Bai Chengci didn't look at him, but glanced at Jiang Xiyu seemingly unintentionally, and then said lightly, "It's nothing."
Jiang Xiyu: "..."
Lu Ziqi was genuinely happy to see Bai Chengci agree.
He's determined to get this tattletale drunk today, then go home and tell his mother that even good students drink.
If Bai Chengci dares to complain, he will complain to his parents in return.
Anyway, let's all just give up on life.
Seeing Lu Ziqi's excited expression, as if he wanted to get everyone drunk, Jiang Xiyu couldn't help but frown and say, "Don't go too far."
Lu Ziqi smiled, then patted his chest and said, "Brother, don't worry, I'm very good at these things."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but lean closer to Jiang Xiyu and whisper, "When the time comes, I'll just watch them make a fool of themselves."
Besides wanting revenge, Lu Ziqi clearly wanted to amuse Jiang Xiyu in this way, but Jiang Xiyu didn't really want to see a drunkard, so she just symbolically tugged at his lips.
The two sat together, and with Lu Ziqi's deliberate move closer, from a certain angle, Jiang Xiyu's arm draped over the sofa looked as if she were holding Lu Ziqi in her arms.
Suddenly, the sound of something breaking came from inside the private room.
Everyone looked over at the sound and saw that the cup in Bai Chengci's hand was broken, and the scarlet wine, like blood, was flowing all over his hand.
The waiter who poured him the drink was stunned when he saw this.
He didn't understand why the wine glass had suddenly shattered.
But the customer is king, so the waiter had no choice but to apologize quickly, saying he didn't know the cup was broken.
After Bai Chengci put down the only remaining, uneven wine glass in her hand, she said indifferently that it was okay, then looked up at Lu Ziqi, her gaze lingering coldly for a few seconds before she asked with a normal expression, "Can we begin?"
Is this question directed at him?
Lu Ziqi felt a shiver run down his spine from being stared at.
Before he could say anything, Bai Chengci indifferently shifted his gaze to the other people in the private room.
Lu Ziqi cursed inwardly.
Damn it, who are you trying to impress with that high and mighty attitude?
"Come on, whoever loses is the grandson."
