Around six o'clock, the beautiful women in the office began to arrive one after another. The first to come was Kawagawa Haruko, followed by Shu Xia Wuzi and Hanazaki Nai, and then Duanmu Baihui and others.
Akiyano Koiko was the last to arrive, and when Xiao Yun saw her, his gaze immediately became fixated.
It seemed that this woman had dressed up specially for tonight. Her Azure Silks were elegantly tied up high at the back of her head, with a few strands of hair cascading down by her ears. She wore a fiery red silk chiffon blouse that tightly accentuated her slender waist. Her face was clearly made up, with Willow Brows resembling distant green mountains, and her phoenix eyes sparkled like blue waves. Her lips were luscious and red. The scent of perfume wafting from her was unmistakably from the Drunken Beauty Series.
It seemed that Drunken Beauty Series Perfume was quite popular in the Island Nation.
The usually Cold Beauty, Akiyano Koiko, surprisingly revealed a floral smile tonight.
Xiao Yun felt somewhat entranced; he swallowed hard and stared intently at Akiyano Koiko's beautiful face, saying, "Director Akiyano, you look really beautiful when you smile!"
Damn, does that mean she looks unattractive when she’s not smiling?
"Hehe, we’re not at the club now; just call me Akiyano Ice Sister!" Although Akiyano Koiko felt quite displeased by his casual remark, she maintained a somewhat reserved smile as she spoke.
Her smile exuded a special charm that captivated hearts.
"Thank you, Akiyano Ice Sister!"
Seeing Akiyano Koiko looking so enchanting, Master Xiao couldn't help but feel a bit self-indulgent, secretly thinking that this woman dressed so dazzlingly tonight—was it just for me?
The women who were used to Akiyano Koiko's cold demeanor were now rarely treated to her charming side. Perhaps it was her sudden display of warmth that greatly affected everyone, quickly heating up the atmosphere.
The waiter brought out all the dishes, and various fine wines were served. Xiao Yun opened the wine bottles and began pouring drinks for the beautiful ladies.
"Today, everyone should not hold back on spending; drink up and enjoy yourselves!"
At this moment, seeing the Eight Beauties surrounding him like stars around the moon, Xiao Yun suddenly felt a surge of accomplishment rising from within, and couldn't help but boast.
He felt like a prince among flowers, and Moon Talk said that a prince should have a certain demeanor when speaking.
This scene would surely make Dead Fatty Wu furious, likely giving him a fit of anger.
As soon as he finished speaking, Duanmu Baihui laughed like a fox: "Long San, I remember when we were in the office, I just mentioned going to the Emperor Hotel, and someone immediately made a face like a bitter melon, looking like a turtle withdrawing into its shell!"
"Uh..." Xiao Yun touched his nose, his face turning red as he momentarily didn't know how to respond.
The nearby beauties burst into laughter.
It seemed that being a prince among flowers was not something just anyone could casually achieve.
"Alright, everyone stop teasing Long San. Let's first congratulate him on securing the contract with Sunshine Mall. Let's raise our glasses!" Akiyano Koiko said as she lifted her cup.
Akiyano Koiko was the leader among the beauties and also served as the office director. With her speaking up, who would dare to ignore her? The sound of nine cups clinking together filled the air.
The Eight Beauties of the operations department often had to drink with clients to secure business deals. It could be said that each one was trained in the art of drinking; their vigor and boldness while drinking were absolutely unmatched by any man.
After several rounds of drinks and dishes, the faces of the women began to flush, and their eyes sparkled with more moisture.
"Long San, can you tell us how you met the Cold President from Sunshine Mall?" Akiyano Koiko asked.
"Yes, yes! Long San, share with us!"
"And what exactly is your relationship with Leng Mei?"
"Hey, Long San, some people speculate that when you were in Huaxia, you were in a romantic relationship with that Cold President. Is it true?"
Sweat, what are they talking about?
Once this woman starts gossiping, it’s like she’s going to break through the sky. How did I get dragged into a romantic relationship with Leng Mei?
That said, in their minds, the relationship between Xiao Yun and Leng Mei is indeed a mystery.
If they didn’t have some kind of relationship, how could a confirmed dead end suddenly be revived in his hands?
No matter how you look at it, this situation doesn’t make sense.
Hearing the chorus of agreement from the women, Xiao Yun immediately felt a headache coming on.
“Well, since Akiyano Ice Sister brought it up, I can’t not say anything!” Xiao Yun rubbed his nose and smiled.
Then he recounted the misunderstanding between him and Leng Mei, as well as how he later helped her. Of course, he omitted the key details.
Joking aside, aside from Kawagawa Haruko, he only had an ordinary colleague relationship with the other Seven Beauties, so there were some things he couldn’t casually disclose.
One should speak cautiously and not reveal everything. There’s some truth to what the Ancient People said.
“Is it really that simple?” Akiyano Koiko seemed unsatisfied and asked.
Following that, Duanmu Baihui pressed on: “Didn’t anything else happen between you two?”
“My brother has good character, so of course there’s nothing messy going on!” Xiao Yun understood the implication behind Duanmu Baihui's words and replied.
“That’s already not simple,” after all, she was the director in the office. Akiyano Koiko concluded, “The hero saving the beauty—this plot may be a bit cliché, but it seems that sometimes it still works in specific situations!”
With that, Akiyano Koiko stood up and smiled at Xiao Yun: “Handsome guy, I’m going out for a moment. You all continue; I’ll be back soon!”
A voice called out "Little Handsome Guy," which excited Xiao Yun. It's worth noting that for someone like Akiyano Koiko, a woman with a cold demeanor, to call a man "handsome" was quite a revelation.
"Thank you, Akiyano Ice Sister. Do you want me to accompany you to the restroom?" Xiao Yun blurted out in his excitement.
As soon as the words left his mouth, he regretted it. After all, would a beautiful woman need a man to follow her to the restroom?
Akiyano Koiko shot him a flirtatious glance and scolded playfully, "Tsk, have you had too much to drink?"
This elicited another round of laughter from the other women.
After Akiyano Koiko left the private room, several women surrounded Xiao Yun and began to bombard him with attention:
"Come on, let's keep drinking!"
"I toast to you!"
"You’re a man; I’ll drink half, and you drink the whole glass!"
When it came to drinking, Xiao Yun was not afraid; no matter how much they poured into him, he wouldn't get drunk.
The problem was that this bottle of alcohol cost over two hundred Huaxia Coins. What they were pouring down was not just liquor; it was his money.
"Uh, I still have work tomorrow. Let's drink a little less!" Xiao Yun said, trying to express some concern while pinching the money he had on him.
But these women were not going to listen to him. It was rare for them to go out and relax, so they were determined to enjoy themselves.
After a while of revelry, Xiao Yun realized he hadn’t seen Akiyano Koiko return.
"Everyone, please sit for a moment. I’ll go check on Akiyano Ice Sister," Xiao Yun said.
He was worried about whether Akiyano Koiko had drunk too much and gotten into trouble.
Exiting the private room, he walked through the lobby, turned left, and walked down a corridor to the restroom.
It was already past ten o'clock, which was the busiest time at the bar.
Colorful lights flickered, and powerful music shook the heart. In the center of the dance floor, various alluring girls twisted their bodies wildly to the deafening music. Their fair skin stood out in the swaying lights, and their long hair danced back and forth.
The chaotic crowd of men and women had fallen into a frenzied state, and an ambiguous atmosphere enveloped the entire bar.
Xiao Yun was preparing to head down the corridor from the lobby when suddenly his pupils constricted sharply.
He noticed not far away, at a booth, Akiyano Koiko was being surrounded by several thuggish-looking individuals, some even getting hands-on with her.
Although the noise in the entire lobby was extremely loud, he could still hear every word coming from Akiyano Koiko's side clearly.
Hearing those thugs shouting at Akiyano Koiko left Xiao Yun stunned.
He never expected that the well-known cold beauty in the office, Akiyano Koiko, had another unknown identity!
