Chapitre 242: Forged in Fire

The clock struck 2 AM, casting a faint glow in the dimly lit parking lot as Long Tian and Alexia Qian exited Suisei Pavilion, their footsteps echoing against the pavement.

Alexia stole a glance at Long Tian, her curiosity evident in her voice. "So, is this a regular spot for you?" she asked, her tone casual, yet tinged with intrigue.

Long Tian's response was nonchalant as he replied, "First time here, actually. But it's not too shabby."

"Not too shabby for what? Plenty of eye-catching company?" she inquired, her tone shifting, now sharp with suspicion. Her gaze narrowed as she awaited his response.

Long Tian, however, didn't falter. "And what about you, Mrs. Alexia? Despite having a husband, you're out at an entertainment center past midnight, surrounded by both men and women," he countered, his words delivered with ease.
