Kapitel 54: Encountering Such a Bully
Redakteur: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mu Shao and his buddies were confused. Trying to sell fruits?
"There's a dragon fruit seller…" Ji Anan's eyes swept across Young Master Mu's hairstyle, which resembled a dragon fruit.
"Mu Shao, she's talking about you. Dragon fruit…"
"And a pear seller." She stared at one of them with a pear-like physique.
"What are you laughing about? Your mother really is a pear seller…"
"And there's also two watermelon sellers, along with a sugar cane seller."
"I've already told you two that you guys should lose some of the weight around your bellies. And you... sugar cane seller?"
Ji Anan hung up the phone and started to walk away, but Mu Shao blocked her again. "I like saucy and brazen beauties like you. Since you're so gorgeous, no matter how insolent you are, I won't get mad."
…
Beiming Shaoxi sat in a high-backed cotton accent chair with a cocky smirk at the corners of his lips.
His cerulean eyes gleamed with fascination.
"Mr. Beiming?" A foreign man with a cigarette in his mouth was surprised by the hint of a smile on his lips. "I'm glad we have the chance to work together."
For the entire night, Beiming Shaoxi gave off an air of overpowering dominance.
He provided his curly signature on the contract, handed it over, then stood up and walked out of the compartment.
Will had already pulled up the files on Ji Anan and handed them to him. "Young Master, her name is Su Qianmo…"
…
A gang of slackers blocked Ji Anan's exit, and she cried out to the waiter for help.
She had accepted the gig simply to make some extra money. She hadn't wanted to be caught up in messy drama…
She had been well-protected since she was young and had the sauciness of an heiress with a privileged upbringing. Since this was the first time she had ever worked a job, she wasn't quite aware that the combination of her impertinent mannerisms and her breathtaking looks could potentially bring her unwanted attention.
The supervisor trotted over and tried to dissuade him. "Young Master Mu, this is our newly hired pianist. I hope you—"
"Get lost! How dare you interrupt me when I'm in the middle of a conversation with a woman?" Mu Shao raised his fists.
A hand in a black glove caught him by the wrist, and a sinister aura crept up on him.
Mu Shao turned his head around. "Who are you—"
Ji Anan turned her head, too, and came face to face with an exquisitely handsome face. Her mind instantly went blank. Why was it him?
Dressed in formal attire, he looked as striking as always, the very embodiment of aristocrat sophistication.
After panicking for a few seconds, she gradually calmed herself down.
She was Su Qianmo right then, and there was no way someone as blind as Beiming Shaoxi would recognize her... But hadn't he seen her as Su Qianmo before as well? It had been three years already, so perhaps he had already forgotten!
Since she studied music, she knew how to use her throat, stomach, chest, and other body parts to make a variety of sounds.
She had the ability to make five different vocal styles, similar to how singers knew how to use falsetto.
Whenever she assumed the identity of Ji Anan, she spoke with her chest.
When she presented as her true identity, Su Qianmo, she naturally used her real voice.
…
Beiming Shaoxi exerted a slight pressure on Mu Shao's hand by pulling it back, and Mu Shao instantly fell to the ground in a kneeling position facing Ji Anan.
Young Master Mu was furious at being publicly humiliated in front of a beautiful woman. "Stop him! Beat him up!"
His buddies wrapped up their sleeves in preparation for a brawl.
Beiming Shaoxi's eyes gleamed with danger, and all it took was for him to glance at them with his menacing eyes before they were all instantly intimidated into taking a few steps back.
He took off his black gloves and began cracking his knuckles one by one, the sound of bones popping ringing out.
His overpowering bearings made him look like a dark emperor.
His long legs hadn't even sent a single kick before the pear-shaped man stumbled to the ground and pressed his hand to his chest. "What a forceful kick."
"Sorry, but I can't help you, Mu Shao. I've been beaten as well."
One by one, his useless buddies started collapsing to the ground.
"Damn it, you bunch of disloyal scoundrels!" Young Master Mu was fuming with rage, and he dialed some numbers on his phone. "All of you get in here right this second. I've been threatened!"
Kapitel 55: If Her True Identity Was Exposed
Redakteur: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The tavern's door was pushed open, and a dozen bodyguards in black stormed in to surround him.
Now that he had gained the upper hand, Young Master Mu ran in front of Ji Anan as he gloated, "This scumbag had the nerve to play the hero in front of me. Now, I'll give him a taste of what it's like to go against me."
Ji Anan pursed her lips. She didn't want to drag Beiming Shaoxi into this mess. What was she supposed to do, tell Grandfather about the situation?
But soon, she realized that she was worrying for nothing.
Beiming Shaoxi was a skilled fighter and highly agile. When he kicked people, he used successive kicks.
Every single punch was insanely impressive…
Ironically, all the bodyguards were badly beaten until they were left with bruises and other unsightly wounds.
"Careful!"
Ji Anan caught sight of a bodyguard trying to sneak up on Beiming Shaoxi, and she grabbed a vase.
As if there was a pair of eyes in the back of Beiming Shaoxi's head, he threw a punch backward, and the bodyguard that had tried to sneak an attack fell to the ground with a yelp.
The vase that Ji Anan threw therefore smashed on top of Beiming Shaoxi's head.
Crash!
The vase broke into tiny pieces that scattered all over the floor. Beiming Shaoxi froze in his tracks, and the entire tavern was dead silent.
Ji Anan, shell-shocked, had a blank expression on her face.
"Young Master Beiming, are you alright?" Upon hearing the commotion from the brawl, the manager had rushed over just in time to witness the scene.
'Young Master Beiming?'
Young Master Mu was even more astonished, and his entire body started to tremble.
In S City, the Beiming family's prominence was second to none.
"I must have been blind not to recognize Young Master Beiming…"
Mu Shao lost all of his pride, and with a thud, he fell to the ground in terror.
Beiming Shaoxi felt at the back of his head with his hand and received a handful of dripping blood.
"You were hit by the hot lady. It had nothing to do with me." Mu Shao quickly diverted the blame from himself.
Beiming Shaoxi turned around, and his glacial eyes stared right at Ji Anan.
She opened her eyes wide, lifted up her dress, and resisted the urge to kick Young Master Mu. "Go away!"
"We're all going away."
Young Master Mu shrunk into a ball and literally started to roll away. "Young Master Beiming, I'll deliver my apology in person some other day…"
All the bodyguards followed their master's lead and rolled on the floor in different directions.
Ji Anan's palms were sweating. She stared at Beiming Shaoxi's impassive face and winked coquettishly. "Are you alright? I didn't do it on purpose."
"..."
"Your head is bleeding... Your forehead is bleeding, as well…"
Ji Anan regretted what she had done. Why had she had to bring herself trouble by bashing him in the head with a vase?
How much would this accident cost her? This rental cost of this gown already threatened to empty her bank account.
"Do you want me to call an ambulance right now?"
"There's no need."
"You're so kind... May the lord bless you. Bye, I'm leaving—"
Ji Anan frantically tried to leave, but he suddenly grabbed her small wrist.
She didn't want to entangle herself anymore with Beiming Shaoxi. If her true identity was exposed, then she would be stuck with this nuisance for her entire life.
"Let me just say this: you are the one that suddenly popped out of nowhere to help me. I didn't ask for your help. I threw the vase to hit the bad guy, but your big head blocked me…"
Beiming Shaoxi raised his thick brows. His head was too big?
"I'm only a poor pianist. You're dressed rather nicely, so you probably have the money to get yourself examined, right?"
"..."
"Also, don't think just because you saved me that I'll be so grateful as to sell my body just to thank you. There's no way, okay? Can you let go of my hand?" Ji Anan tried to yank her hand away, desperately wanting to avoid getting involved with him.
The world was so big. Why did she bump into him wherever she went? As long as she refused to acknowledge that she knew him, everything would be alright!
