Chapter 2331 2305 Humiliation (Sixth Update)
Chapter 2331: Chapter 2305: Humiliation! (Sixth Update) Chapter 2331: Chapter 2305: Humiliation! (Sixth Update) Ye Chen looked at Song Rou, furrowed his brows, and stood motionless in the room.
This situation, he dared not get too close! Why?
Just one word, troublesome!
It was really troublesome!
And Song Rou, at this time, smiled and said, “What’s wrong, Young Master Ye? Come a little closer, I have something to tell you.”
“Uh, whatever you have to say, just say it from there…”
Ye Chen really couldn’t figure out what this woman wanted!
Could it be, she had fallen in love with him at first sight? He hadn’t done anything!
But Song Rou, with a slightly aggrieved pout, said, “Young Master Ye, don’t you like Rou’er at all? I won’t bite, can’t you even walk a bit closer?”
“This…” Ye Chen hesitated for a moment but moved closer and said, “Is this alright now? Miss Song, is there something you need? Or, are you not feeling well?”
He believed that Song Rou’s behavior was not because she was mentally unwell, possibly, there was something physically wrong with her…
He hadn’t become so narcissistic as to think his charm was that great.
Song Rou then coquettishly smiled and said, “Young Master Ye, you’ve noticed it? There really is something uncomfortable about me, Young Master Ye, could you check it for me?”
Ye Chen gave a wry smile and said, “This is a bit inappropriate, isn’t it? If you’re feeling unwell, it’s better to see a doctor, and besides, Miss Song, you are supposed to be Young Master Xu’s woman, right?”
Upon hearing this, Song Rou’s face changed slightly, and she became somewhat more reserved and silent for a moment.
Ye Chen had refused to such an extent; she knew it was useless to say more and could only bring shame upon herself.
Seeing Song Rou’s expression, Ye Chen knew his words had hurt her and couldn’t help but scratch his head and say, “Miss Song, just tell me what it is…”
Song Rou hesitated for a moment but still lowered her head and said, “Actually, I was hoping to invite Young Master Ye to accompany me to a party…”
“You wanted?” Ye Chen said with a half-smile, “Or did Young Master Xu want it?”
Song Rou tried to argue, but Ye Chen raised his hand to stop her, “There’s no need to say more, I won’t be going to this party.”
He had never really liked these so-called grand parties. If Young Master Xu had invited him through proper channels, considering Song Rou spoke in his favor, he might have agreed.
But now, to have his own woman play this trick on him?
Even if this Young Master Xu had no ulterior motives, Ye Chen truly disapproved of him.
Was there any need to attend such parties?
Upon hearing this, Song Rou’s face turned pale again, looking at Ye Chen with an expression as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
Yet Ye Chen’s expression was indifferent, having no intention of changing his mind, he said, “Okay, Miss Song, please go back.”
Song Rou had no choice but to stand up, her footsteps heavy as she walked towards the door, knowing she had not accomplished what Xu Sheng had tasked her with, and her return would certainly not be pleasant.
“Wait.” Ye Chen suddenly called out to Song Rou again.
Song Rou quickly turned around, her pretty face filled with hope as she looked at Ye Chen.
Yet Ye Chen merely poured himself a cup of Spiritual Tea, not even looking at Song Rou, he indifferently said, “Just a kind word of advice, that Young Master Xu, you’d better leave him sooner rather than later, staying with him for long won’t do you any good.”
Miss Song’s eyes flickered with disappointment as she forced a smile, “Thank you for the reminder, Young Master Ye. Rou’er will remember it.”
After speaking, she turned and left.
Leave? Could she really leave? Even if she could leave Xu Sheng, the luxurious lifestyle had completely grasped her; she could never go back to her old life. Even if she left this Xu Sheng, wouldn’t she just find another Xu Sheng?
Ye Chen sighed softly. He felt that Song Rou’s nature wasn’t bad, it was just unfortunate that she had met the wrong person, succumbed to temptation, and delayed her own growth. Now it was hard for her to turn back.
After leaving Ye Chen’s room, Song Rou headed in a certain direction outside the loft.
The banquet must be starting about now, right?
She should go there too. Hopefully, Xu Sheng wouldn’t punish her too severely for not bringing Ye Chen…
Unbeknownst to Song Rou, a shadow quietly followed behind her…
Soon, Song Rou heard laughter and conversation up ahead.
A few more steps, and she saw a luxurious palace standing alone before her.
Inside, a rich fragrance of wine and the laughter and chatter of the elites filled the air.
Song Rou walked in, and as soon as she entered the palace, she heard a man calling out,
“Rou’er, you’ve come? Come here, let me introduce you.”
Song Rou trembled slightly; that was Xu Sheng’s voice.
But she had to muster a smile and walked towards where Xu Sheng was.
Although Xu Sheng’s face still held a smile, there was a chilling gleam in his eyes.
He hadn’t seen Ye Chen!
Could this worthless woman not even handle this simple task?
Seeing Xu Sheng’s expression, Song Rou felt her heart might leap out of her chest!
Xu Sheng turned to a pale, rather plump man with a meaty face and small eyes shimmering with lust and laughed, “Young Master Xiang, this is my friend, Song Rou, the daughter of the Sect Master of Baiyuan Sect.”
Young Master Xiang chuckled and extended a hand to Song Rou, “Hello, Miss Song. You really are beautiful and sexy, hehehe, Brother Xu, you are indeed fortunate. I’m so envious!”
A hint of disgust flickered in Song Rou’s beautiful eyes, but she still graciously reached out and shook Young Master Xiang’s hand, only the next moment her face turned pale as if pleadingly she looked towards Xu Sheng for help.
Young Master Xiang, however, shamelessly squeezed Song Rou’s delicate hand, his fat face bearing a lewd expression!
Yet at this moment, Xu Sheng acted as though he saw nothing and indifferently continued, “Rou’er, this is Xiang Hai, the second son of the Nangang Xiang Family, one of the top-tier families of the Lingwu Continent. What are you waiting for, don’t you want to offer Young Master Xiang a drink? These are supreme-grade wines, you wouldn’t get a chance to drink this in your lifetime normally.”
At this point, Song Rou felt utterly disheartened, but she still forced a smile, not daring to show even a hint of discontent. As Xu Sheng mentioned the toast, Song Rou finally managed to pull her hand back from Xiang Hai, picked up two cups of spirit wine from the table, handed one to Xiang Hai, and smiled at him:
“Young Master Xiang, a toast from Rou’er to you.”
Then, she downed her cup of spirit wine in one gulp!
The spirit wine scorched down her throat, and her pretty face immediately flushed red!
Her steps faltered slightly!
Although Song Rou’s level of cultivation was decent, reaching the Star Aperture realm, this spirit wine was no ordinary drink!
It was extremely potent!
