When Ye Kun entered the bar, he instantly spotted a familiar figure among the crowd dancing on the dance floor, and his eyes widened. There he was, searching for her everywhere, and she suddenly showed up when he least expected her!

He found a seat with a good view of the dance floor and sat down. When the bar manager saw him, he quickly came and greeted him. “Young Master Kun—”

“Don’t mind me,” Ye Kun interrupted and waved him away. “Get me a glass of soda water.”

‘Soda water? The foreman thought, slightly bewildered, but he immediately did as told.

Ye Kun drank his soda water as he watched the woman on the dance floor move her body to her heart’s content. Her graceful figure seemed to be venting some kind of emotion. She was unrestrained and flamboyant—a huge contrast to her usual bright and intellectual appearance.

‘She really is extraordinary,’ Ye Kun mused.

When the song ended, the dancers dispersed. Fang Xi was a little shaky on her feet, but her mind was clear. She was walking to her booth with a faint smile when someone blocked her way. The guy flirted, “Hey, that was some awesome dancing out there! Why don’t we have a drink together?”

Fang Xi’s smile instantly turned cold. She waved her hand, indicating her disinterest without looking up at him, and walked away. However, the man wouldn’t give up until he got a date with the beauty. He stepped close, grabbed her arm, and said, “Hey, do me a favor here.”

Fang Xi flipped her arm, freeing it from the man’s hold, and coldly rebuffed him, “Move it! Get out of my way!”

“Oh, you have a temper. Spicy, I like that.” The man was quite displeased at being rejected and—under the influence of alcohol—wouldn’t take no for an answer. He reached out his hand again and forcefully pulled her back.

Fang Xi sneered and gave a knife-hand strike to his wrist. The man retracted his hand in pain, and his companions beside him laughed at his plight.

Humiliated, the man flew into a rage. He raised his hand, intending to slap Fang Xi’s face, and shouted, “You ungrateful b*tch!”

A strong hand grabbed his raised hand before he could bring his palm down.

“Stop it!” its owner demanded. The man turned his head to stare at the meddler and was about to blow up at him when one of his companions quickly restrained and pushed him away. His companion then turned around and repeatedly apologized, “Young Master Kun! Sorry, our bad! We’re terribly sorry!

My friend had too much to drink.”

“Don’t cause trouble here!” Ye Kun coldly warned them.

“Of course, we won’t! Rest assured! We definitely won’t! Absolutely!” So saying, the guys covered their intoxicated friend’s mouth and dragged him away, afraid that his drunken tantrum would cause them more trouble. They didn’t dare to look back at Ye Kun as they left.

Fang Xi was only a little tipsy, not drunk. She recognized Ye Kun and casually thanked him. Ye Kun smiled merrily at her, his previous cold expression nowhere to be seen. “What a coincidence, Miss Fang! ” he beamed. Fang Xi chuckled and nodded at him before returning to her booth.

The dance music started up again, but Fang Xi didn’t return to the dance floor; she just sat in her booth and drank alcohol. After a moment’s thought, Ye Kun walked over to her with his drink in hand. He sat down on the outermost side of the booth, and before Fang Xi could say anything, he stated, “I’m sitting here so that no one will come and disturb you, Miss Fang. You can trust me and drink without worry since I’m an acquaintance, after all. You know my address—you know where to find me if anything happens. I don’t have any other intentions; I just want to spare you some trouble. I’m fine just sitting here; you can pretend I don’t exist.”

‘ What else can I say to that? Fang Xi thought. She pursed her lips and smiled at

wonderful man.”

‘Her smile is even more dazzling than the neon lights above her head,’ Ye Kun inwardly sighed, and his heart skipped a beat.

Fang Xi knew Yun Nan would come to pick her up, and she was very familiar with the bartender here, so she felt quite safe. Mildly drunk, she looked at the person before her whom she’d met less than five times, and smilingly asked, “So, what’s your name again? I’m sorry, I’ve had too much to drink. My brain is a little scrambled right now, so I can’t remember it.”

Ye Kun smiled. ‘She’s adorable,’ he thought before he answered, “It’s Ye Kun. Ye as in leaf and Kun as in the universe.”

Fang Xi nodded and solemnly assured him, “Okay, got it, Mr. Leaf Universe.” She cutely blinked her eyes at him, feigning innocence, and then the two of them burst into laughter.

“Just call me Ye Kun. It’s simple and easy to remember,” Ye Kun laughingly commented.

Fang Xi nodded and carefully repeated his name. “Ye Kun, Ye Kun.” Ye Kun smiled at her and poured her a glass of soda water. Fang Xi took a sip and was surprised. “Isn’t this soda water?”

Ye Kun smiled without saying anything. Fang Xi waved the bartender over and asked them to bring her two glasses of alcohol. She handed one to Ye Kun and told him, “What’s the point of coming to a bar if you’re not going to drink? Are you just here rubbernecking?”

Ye Kun took the offered drink, put it aside, and said, “Go and knock yourself out. I’ll send you home when you’ve had enough.”

Fang Xi had just taken a sip of her drink and froze. His words were too kind and took her off guard. With a gulp, Fang Xi swallowed and promptly choked on her drink..
