Chapter 317: Why Don't You Harass Me
Xiao Yun touched his nose and chuckled, "Beautiful lady, don't waste your efforts. The poisoned dagger under your table can't harm me!"
Lu Ruanhong shivered, wondering how this guy discovered the mechanism hidden beneath the table.
"Sir, you must be joking. How could I... possibly..."
"Hehe, one should never have malicious intentions, but always be cautious of others, right, Ms. Lu? I have to be a bit careful in front of such a stunning beauty," Xiao Yun said cheerfully.
It was no joke; Xiao Yun had sharp senses. When he entered the private room, his Spiritual Sense had already detected the hidden mechanisms under the table.
He couldn't believe that Lu Ruanhong would go to such lengths. It seemed she faced many dangers regularly; otherwise, she wouldn't have set up a deadly trap under the table in this private room.
Moreover, Xiao Yun noticed that within this room, there were numerous traps concealed in the walls, ceiling, and even under each chair.
What did it mean for a hotel Boss Lady to set up such a private room?
This indicated that she was not just an ordinary hotel Boss Lady.
At the same time, it proved that this woman had offended quite a few people. Many around her were likely considered dangerous individuals, prompting her to enhance her defenses by creating this private space.
Bringing him here also meant she considered him a highly dangerous person.
—Doesn't a handsome guy like me look like a dangerous individual?
Master Xiao felt a bit wronged inside.
Indeed, Xiao Yun's guess was spot on. In Lu Ruanhong's eyes, someone who could turn her nephew into stone and even came to provoke her was clearly targeting her.
Before she figured out the true identity of the person in front of her, Lu Ruanhong certainly wouldn't act recklessly.
However, this guy was just too mysterious. He could tell at a glance that she had drawn the Jade Body Smoke, and upon entering the private room, he immediately noticed the secret under her table. What kind of eyes did he have?
A chill that she had never felt before suddenly rose in her heart.
"Sir, you misunderstood. Uh, I'm really glad to meet you today..."
Just as Lu Ruanhong was considering how to respond to this guy, she was interrupted before she could finish her sentence.
"Ms. Lu, actually, I'm even happier to meet you today, and I mean very happy."
Xiao Yun squinted his eyes and smiled. "After all, being alone with such an exquisite beauty like you in a private room, whispering sweet nothings—it's not something just anyone can hope for!"
Damn!
Whispering sweet nothings? Do I have that?
Why does this guy speak so frivolously?
Although Lu Ruanhong felt a surge of anger inside, she could only endure it.
"Sir, could you be a bit more serious? Can we get back to the point?" She lightly bit her thin lips, and the coldness in her eyes could almost freeze the air in the room.
"Beautiful lady, I am being very serious when I talk to you," Xiao Yun said with a smile. "However, what I'm more interested in is whether we can spark a little romance between us in this short time. For example, would you come to like me?"
"Impossible, hum!" Lu Ruanhong's expression changed, and she felt like jumping up.
Xiao Yun laughed and said, "Why is it impossible? Can you tell me?"
Lu Ruanhong was so angry she felt like spitting blood.
"We are not on the same side!" Lu Ruanhong exclaimed in frustration.
Xiao Yun asked with a smile, "Then can you tell me which side you are on?"
"Sir, I don't want to beat around the bush with you anymore," Lu Ruanhong took a deep breath again, her pretty face turning cold. "You tell me what you've done to my nephew. Name your price; I don't care how much it is!"
She felt that if she continued talking to this guy, she would go crazy.
This guy was simply a rogue!
"Oh," Xiao Yun chuckled, "I told you, that dog hybrid is really fine. In a little while, when I go downstairs, as long as I'm in a good mood, your hybrid nephew will sense my aura and naturally recover. Of course, if I'm in a bad mood, that's another story. As for the money you mentioned, heh heh, given our relationship—how could I ask for your money?"
What relationship do we have?
Lu Ruanhong really wanted to pounce on him and tear him into pieces.
What frustrated her was that her nephew's well-being depended on his mood and the aura he emitted. Wasn't this just tormenting her?
"Can you really guarantee he's okay?" Lu Ruanhong asked uneasily.
No one would feel at ease seeing a person turn to stone, cold to the touch and unresponsive. Is that still a person?
"Don't worry, as long as you make me happy, everything will be fine!" Xiao Yun said confidently.
Lü Ruanhong's silver teeth clicked together as she asked, "So how can I make you happy?"
Xiao Yun immediately replied seriously, "Well, that means catering to my tastes!"
"And what do you like?" Lü Ruanhong asked again.
Xiao Yun leaned closer to her face and said, "It depends on how you can win my favor!"
"You—"
Lü Ruanhong suppressed an urge to spit blood. Appearing nonchalant, she began to play with her delicate fingers and asked, "Can you tell me your name?"
Xiao Yun seemed not to hear her question and instead focused on her delicate hands. "Beautiful lady, your hands are so lovely. Can I touch them?"
Her fingers were white and slender, tender like spring onions, exquisite like a work of art.
Everything about this woman seemed perfect, except for her overly cold expression and domineering demeanor.
It is said that women with excessively slender and delicate fingers often have short lives. Whether there's truth to this or not, Xiao Yun believed that Lü Ruanhong's lifespan was limited.
—Hmph, only I can save her!
Xiao Yun secretly smiled with satisfaction.
—What kind of person have I encountered today!
After hearing his words, Lu Ruanhong quickly withdrew her hand and patiently repeated the question, "Sir, may I ask your esteemed name?"
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Of course. My name is Xiao Yun!"
"What? Your name is Xiao Yun?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yun's response, Lu Ruanhong trembled slightly, and in an instant, her expression changed several times. She blurted out, "You are from the Galactic District?"
Now it was Xiao Yun's turn to be surprised. "How did you know that?"
"Oh, the people who come here are quite mixed. I think I've heard someone mention you," Lu Ruanhong replied.
Xiao Yun was no fool; he could catch some subtle changes in her expression. This woman definitely did not just hear about him from others; someone must have specifically reported his situation to her.
Who exactly is she?
And who is so eager to report his situation to her?
At that moment, Xiao Yun realized once again that this beautiful woman, Lu Ruanhong, was not simply a big sister who mingled in both the underworld and the legitimate world.
So who exactly is she?
But no matter who she was, Xiao Yun didn't want to think too much about it. His purpose for coming here was for Lulili. After dealing with a scoundrel like Lu Zhenghao, he didn't want to leave any repercussions for her.
However, for Master Xiao, a woman like Lu Ruanhong was indeed a rare gem. After all, it was hard to find a Fragrant Bone Woman in this world, and he was curious to experience what Fragrant Beauty was like.
But the premise of that curiosity was that he needed to understand who she really was. After all, Lu Ruanhong was different from Miss Yukiko; Miss Yukiko had been delivered from the Island Nation and was completely under his control—he would take advantage of that opportunity.
Lu Ruanhong, however, was different. He currently had no grasp of her background at all. A woman like her was like a thorny rose; perhaps before he could even pluck the flower, he would end up getting hurt all over.
"Mr. Xiao, at first glance, you seem to be a capable person. I have an unsolicited request: would you be willing to come work at my hotel?" In the blink of an eye, Lu Ruanhong unexpectedly smiled brightly and asked.
Xiao Yun touched his nose and smiled, "So you're saying you've taken a liking to me?"
Lu Ruanhong's face flushed, and her eyes darted around as she replied, "Since you put it that way, I suppose so!"
"Is it really so, or isn't it?" Xiao Yun pressed on closely.
Faced with such a thick-skinned man, Lu Ruanhong was truly on the verge of losing her mind.
She reluctantly said, "Yes!"
"Really?" Xiao Yun exclaimed with wild excitement. "Then why don't you make a move on me?"
"Make a move on you?"
"Yes, a woman who operates in both the underworld and the upper world must be quite formidable. With a quiet and handsome guy like me sitting in front of you, if I've stirred your heart, wouldn't it be unreasonable for you not to make a move? How else can you prove that you're interested in me?"
"Then how am I supposed to make a move on you?" Lu Ruanhong thought about how she wished she could slice this man into pieces.
Xiao Yun grinned widely and said, "For example, we could kiss or go to bed together..."
"You... Mr. Xiao, this is our first meeting. Don't you think what you're saying is too much?" Lu Ruanhong suppressed her anger.
Damn it, judging by this woman's Qi Mechanism, she really is angry with me.
This surprised Xiao Yun greatly. In his mind, it was already quite rare for a woman like her to maintain her purity while mingling in both worlds. He never expected that she couldn't even handle a few teasing remarks; this was even more unexpected.
What means does she possess to conquer those people, allowing her precious Nephew to act recklessly outside while still making others avoid her?
Lu Ruanhong has become a mystery in Xiao Yun's heart.
As for Lu Ruanhong's anger, Xiao Yun was not at all concerned. He smiled casually and said, "Beautiful lady, who told you to seduce me? If you hadn't seduced me, would I be saying this?"
Pfft!
Lu Ruanhong had just taken a sip of tea and spat it all out.
When did I ever seduce you?
She felt that she had to be cautious when talking to this guy.
Fortunately, at that moment, the waiter brought the dishes.
