Chapter 274: You Made Me This Rogue
"Miss An, I believe you have seen the message. Are you going or not?"
Skinny Monkey crossed his arms and wore a sinister smile as he asked.
As he spoke, his eyes scanned the woman in front of him from head to toe.
Shen Yuechan was dressed in a light green qipao that accentuated her tall figure, which was about five foot seven. She wore a pair of crystal high heels, and her delicate toes resembled freshly peeled pomegranate seeds, making her look incredibly tempting.
At first glance, the woman appeared elegant and dignified, with two elegantly arched eyebrows, a pair of bright and lively phoenix eyes, a straight and refined nose, and full, beautiful crimson lips. Her stunning figure seemed perfectly crafted by nature; it felt like any missing detail would render her less than perfect.
Heh, beautiful with a great figure, especially that pair in front—damn it, anyone would want to reach out and squeeze them. No wonder our Flower Shao was completely enchanted after just one meeting with her in Beijing.
An Yiran shot him a cold glare and asked, "Is it not possible to skip it?"
"Not possible!"
Skinny Monkey quickly withdrew his gaze from her and smiled. "Our Flower Shao rarely comes to the Galaxy; how could you not go?"
"What’s your name?" An Yiran asked casually.
Skinny Monkey replied, "Huo Hou!"
An Yiran chuckled and said, "The moment I saw you, I knew you were Black Monkey!"
Huo Hou's facial muscles twitched as sweat rolled down.
"I'm waiting for you at the entrance of the community!"
Black Monkey said, his figure swaying slightly before he transformed into a shadow and swiftly disappeared outside the window.
Seeing his ghostly departure, An Yiran couldn't help but feel a jolt in her heart. She knew very well that if it came to a fight, she might not be a match for him.
She tidied up her clothes, secured the door, and headed downstairs. As she passed by Xiao Yun's bedroom door, she paused briefly, contemplating whether to say something to him. In an instant, she shook her head and quietly opened the door, stepping outside.
Outside the Rose Garden Community, a black Bentley was parked. As An Yiran walked past, Huo Hou opened the car door for her and said, "Miss An, please get in!"
An Yiran expressionlessly sat inside the car.
Moments later, the car stopped in front of the Wealthy Grand Hotel.
"Miss An, please follow me!"
Huo Hou opened the car door for An Yiran and led her into the hotel.
……
Inside a Luxury Private Room, more than ten portly men were gathered around a young man sitting at the table.
The young man was handsome with fair skin, wearing gold-rimmed glasses perched on his nose and sporting an artistically styled slicked-back hairstyle. Judging by his outfit alone, which was worth no less than two hundred thousand, he was undoubtedly a Rich Kid from a wealthy family.
Behind the Rich Kid stood two expressionless men dressed in black, resembling bodyguards.
"Flower Shao, it's rare for you to come to the Galaxy. You must stay a few more days this time, so that the Brothers can take turns to welcome you!"
"Flower Shao is indeed Flower Shao, charming and talented, as beautiful as a jade crown. I've heard that even as a youth, he was renowned for his intelligence in the capital. I wonder how many admirers he will attract just by walking on Galaxy Street!"
"That's right! Flower Shao is not someone of ordinary status. A few girls in this small Galaxy are hardly worth his attention!"
As the saying goes, "No matter how many praises are sung, flattery never gets old." Those who flatter bend at the waist while the one being flattered stands tall and enjoys it. Although the young man known as Flower Shao appeared calm on the surface, there was an unusual sparkle in his eyes.
"Haha, everyone, you are all too kind to me! I'm merely passing through this treasure land. Since it's getting late and I've been weary from my journey, I'll just stay here for one night. Thank you all for taking the time to visit me!" Flower Shao cupped his hands in greeting to those present.
"Oh no, no! Flower Shao is too polite!" they hurriedly replied.
Damn it! What a show-off! They thought to themselves. You're just relying on your father's influence in the capital. You haven't even arrived in the Galaxy yet and you've already notified us to come welcome you. Isn't it obvious you're trying to take advantage of us?
Flower Shao continued, "Actually, I'm a person who prefers to keep a low profile. I don't want to disturb others wherever I go. Otherwise, even the mayor of Galaxy, Shen Tieshan, would surely rush over to meet me. But I find that bothersome; I enjoy peace and quiet!"
The group had already caught on that Flower Shao was subtly asking them to leave. They nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, yes! Flower Shao is indeed an elegant person. We won't disturb you any longer; we'll take our leave!"
As they were leaving, they hurriedly took out various gift boxes from their bags and piled them on the table, each labeled with their names.
At that moment, Flower Shao leaned back in his wooden chair with his arms crossed and closed his eyes, pretending not to see anything.
Once the group had left, he immediately opened his eyes wide and glanced at the mountain of gifts on the table, breaking into a flower-like smile.
"Quickly put these away!" Flower Shao instructed his two bodyguards behind him.
The two bodyguards promptly dragged out a suitcase from the side and began collecting all the items from the table into it.
Not long after everything was tidied up, Huo Hou led An Yiran into the private room.
"An Yiran, you finally made it!" Flower Shao spotted An Yiran and a look of surprise flashed across his face as he smiled and approached her.
An Yiran coldly replied, "Flower Shao, what wind blew you all the way to the galaxy? It's quite a rare visit!"
"Haha, well... I came here drawn by the fragrance!"
"Fragrance?"
"Yes, ever since we had a brief encounter in Beijing last year, the scent you carry has lingered in my dreams. If I don't come, I'm afraid I might die from anxiety over you!" Flower Shao said with a smirk.
An Yiran frowned in disgust and said, "Flower Shao, I've told you before that we are not from the same world. With our different backgrounds and incompatible personalities, it's impossible for us to be together."
"Why not?"
Flower Shao's expression darkened slightly. "Do you know that I am sincere about you..."
An Yiran scoffed, "Capital City Flower Young Master, who doesn't know you're a playboy who has toyed with many women? I've heard there are even a few murder cases involved; which woman have you ever been sincere with?"
"You..." Flower Shao's expression turned sour, then he asked, "Do you really dislike me that much?"
"It's not about dislike; I already told you that we are not on the same path!"
An Yiran continued, "The only reason I'm here to see you is to tell you to give up on this infatuation as soon as possible. Don't randomly barge into my home at night looking for someone!"
"Your home? Isn't that house in Rose Garden Community owned by someone named Xiao Yun? When did it become yours? Are you serving his grandfather and now planning to serve him too?"
Flower Shao suddenly looked displeased and said, "I really don't understand what’s so good about Xiao Yun that makes you willing to stay by his side. As long as you agree to come with me to Beijing, I can help you get whatever you want!"
An Yiran replied, "I know you have that ability, but I don't like it!"
As she spoke, An Yiran turned to leave.
"Stop her!" Flower Shao shouted with wide eyes.
The Huo Hou quickly moved to block the doorway and said, "Miss An, since Flower Shao has invited you here, you must go with him!"
Slap!
An Yiran slapped him across the face.
"What are you? Move aside!" An Yiran scolded.
"Without me, how can you leave here?" Flower Shao sneered.
An Yiran turned to look at Flower Shao, filled with shame and anger, and said, "Han Ziqi, what exactly do you want?"
Flower Shao—Han Ziqi replied, "An Yiran, as long as I, Flower, have my eyes on a woman, no one can escape from my grasp. Since I specifically rushed here from Beijing, how could I let you return to the side of that Xiao?"
"Can you really stop me?" An Yiran mocked.
Han Ziqi said, "Of course I can stop you. The three people beside me are renowned martial arts experts in Huaxia; they can subdue you in less than three moves. Do you believe I could have them strip you naked and expose you on the street?"
"You... rogue!" An Yiran exclaimed angrily.
"You can call me a rogue, but this rogue is forced by you!"
"Forced by me?"
"Yes, as long as you agree to go to Beijing with me, I will treat you well. I will only be a good man to you; how could I possibly become a rogue?" Han Ziqi smiled.
Han Ziqi continued, "An Yiran, I've heard that you really like that person with the surname Xiao, right?"
An Yiran replied coldly, "So what if I do?"
Han Ziqi said, "But you should know that staying by his side will get him killed."
An Yiran was taken aback and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Han Ziqi clearly saw a flash of fear in An Yiran's eyes.
He smiled proudly and said, "Because you are the woman I like. You should know that in Huaxia, anyone who dares to compete with me for a woman, I can wipe them out with just a little finger!"
Before An Yiran could respond, he added, "An Yiran, I think you understand. Since you've come here tonight, don't leave my side!"
"You..." An Yiran regretted coming here so easily.
