Chapter 110 Goodbye Nalan Yanran

"Brother Nalan, this is Xiao Huohuo I told you about, a young alchemist with extraordinary talent." Mittel Tengshan continued to introduce.

"Haha, I've heard for a long time that a gifted alchemist has come to the imperial capital this time. It is said that he got an unprecedented full score in today's internal test, which is cause for celebration." Nalan Jie, who was sitting nearby, was an experienced man. When he heard Mitel Tengshan say that Xiao Se was related to Hai Bodong, and learned from Nalan Yanran that Xiao Se's alchemy skills were extraordinary, he immediately stood up and said with a smile.

"It was just luck." Hearing Nalan Jie's words, Xiao Se's mouth twitched slightly and he said politely. He didn't like Nalan Jie, the old man who was known as the one who could defeat Yue Buqun.

"Haha, okay, let's talk about it later. Xiao Huohuo, Yafei, please sit down together first." Mitel Tengshan smiled and sat down next to Nalan Jie opposite him, giving up his original seat.

Xiao Se smiled and said nothing. He sat opposite Mitel Tengshan and Nalan Jie with Ya Fei. He listened to the conversation between Nalan Jie and Mitel Tengshan, two old foxes, quietly, and occasionally chatted with Ya Fei. Then he ate food and drank juice by himself. As for wine, Long Kui did not let him drink it.

Occasionally, when they asked questions, Xiao Se would agree with them appropriately. However, they asked for a long time and did not get a single word out of Xiao Se.

Nalan Jie chatted with Mitel Tengshan for a while, then called a servant over and whispered a few instructions in his ear. Then he and Mitel Tengshan stood up and smiled at Xiao Se, saying, "Little friend Xiao Huohuo, little girl Yafei, old man Tengshan, and I have something to do so we have to leave for a while. You two chat."

"Chief Nalan, Chief Tengshan, please feel free to do as you please." Xiao Se and Ya Fei stood up at the same time and chuckled.

Seeing the two old foxes, Nalan Jie and Mitel Tengshan, leave, Xiao Se sat down again, tilted his head to look at Ya Fei, and sighed, "I find that people like you who were born in big families are so tired of living. Things that can be explained clearly in one sentence must be beaten around the bush."

Ya Fei shook the wine glass in her hand lightly, a trace of fatigue appeared on her pretty face, and she said helplessly: "There is nothing we can do about it. In the process of family cooperation, socializing is an indispensable part. But it is really difficult for you to accompany me this time."

"Then have a drink with me." Xiao Se chuckled and raised the glass of juice.

"I'm glad to do it." Ya Fei raised the glass of red wine, clinked it lightly with Xiao Se, and said with a smile.

In another corner of the square, Nalan Yanran, the little princess Yaoyue, and Liu Ling sat together.

While they were talking, a servant dressed in the clothes of the Nalan family suddenly came over, leaned close to Nalan Yanran's ear, and whispered a few words.

Nalan Yanran was slightly startled, her eyes flickered, and she glanced at the corner where Xiao Se was. Then she nodded slightly and sent the servant away.

Liu Ling, who had been focusing on Nalan Yanran from the beginning to the end, noticed Nalan Yanran's change and couldn't help asking, "Yanran, what's wrong?"

"Sorry, Brother Liu Ling, Little Princess, Yanran will be absent for a while." Nalan Yanran shook her head, stood up, bowed slightly to the two of them, then turned around with the juice and walked slowly in the direction of Xiao Se, leaving the two of them with a touching figure.

"It's him." Liu Ling frowned upon hearing that and subconsciously looked in the direction where Nalan Yanran was going. She recognized the familiar figure at a glance, and her face suddenly became gloomy.

"Brother Liu Ling, what's wrong with you?" the little princess sitting beside me asked softly.

"Little Princess, Xiao Huohuo is here." Liu Ling said with a slight twitch in the corner of her mouth.

"Xiao Huohuo?" Hearing this, the little princess was slightly stunned. She followed Liu Ling's gaze and saw Xiao Se's familiar figure. She couldn't help but wonder, "Didn't he refuse? Why is he coming here again?"

Liu Ling sneered, "Little Princess, why don't you take a look at who is sitting next to Xiao Huohuo."

"Ya Fei. He came here with Ya Fei." Seeing Xiao Se talking happily with Ya Fei, and even flirting with her, the little princess raised her eyebrows slightly.

She was confident that she was no less attractive than Ya Fei in other aspects except for her young age, small stature, and small conscience. In addition, she had the noble status of a little princess and her excellent talent as a pharmacist. Given time, she would be more charming than Ya Fei (guilty). However, Xiao Huohuo, who had repeatedly refused her invitation to a party during the day, now accepted another woman's invitation to a party and even talked and laughed. This made the little princess very unhappy. Perhaps this is what people often call the comparison mentality.

"The little princess seems a little dissatisfied with him. Liu Ling does have a plan to teach him a lesson." Taking in the little princess's reaction, Liu Ling raised the corners of his mouth in a strange arc and said with a smile.

"This is a party hosted by the royal family. You can't act recklessly." The little princess raised her eyebrows and reminded him.

"Don't worry, someone will teach him a lesson for us." As he spoke, Liu Ling stretched out his hand to call over a waiter dressed in Mu family clothing and muttered a few words.

The corner seat where Xiao Se was.

Without Nalan Jie and Mitel Tengshan, Xiao Se also let go of his dirty talk and had a lively conversation with Ya Fei.

"I can't believe you, a little guy who usually acts so cool, actually has so many strange and interesting things." Shaking the wine glass lightly, Ya Fei seemed to have discovered a business opportunity and said with a smile.

Xiao Se smiled calmly and said, "I am only aloof to strangers. I am quite open-minded to friends who truly recognize me."

Xiao Se's sudden heartfelt words made Ya Fei feel warm. Just as she was about to say something, a crisp chuckle suddenly sounded behind them.

"Mr. Xiao Huohuo, we meet again."

Hearing this familiar laughter, Xiao Se turned his head and looked at the beautiful girl who was slowly walking towards him with juice in her hand, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. The smile on his face gradually faded, and he said, "Ms. Nalan, please take a seat."

Nalan Yanran nodded slightly and sat down opposite Xiao Se.

"Are Sister Yafei and Mr. Xiao Huohuo very familiar with each other?" Looking at Xiao Se, who was chatting and laughing with Yafei just now and stopped smiling as soon as she arrived, Nalan Yanran's delicate face suddenly became a little unnatural. She then looked at Yafei and asked softly.

"Hmm." Hearing this, Ya Fei glanced at Xiao Se who was standing beside her. Seeing his serious face, she was slightly delighted. After pondering for a moment, she smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Xiao Huohuo and I have known each other for several years."

Nalan Yanran suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the two were so familiar with each other. She immediately followed the instructions of her grandfather Nalan Jie and began to win them over appropriately.
