Ya Fei: Had You Seen Enough? No More Next Time

"Sure, I like it too."

Ya Fei smiled sweetly.

Xiao Cang smiled without exposing her, then naturally reached out and took Ya Fei's cool, jade-like hand.

Ya Fei trembled slightly. Though she was charming and seductive, this was her first time holding hands with a man.

Feeling the warmth of Xiao Cang's strong palm, Ya Fei experienced an indescribable, unfamiliar sensation.

"Sister Ya Fei, let's go. I've reserved a table at the Wutan Restaurant."

Holding Ya Fei's hand, Xiao Cang headed out of the auction house.

The Wutan Restaurant was owned by the Su Family, a second-rate family in Wutan City. It was quite renowned within the city, and many prominent figures liked to go there for drinks and music.

Outside the auction house, a crowd of passersby nearly had their eyes pop out when they saw Xiao Cang holding Ya Fei's hand.

Especially the men passing by—all of them stared dumbfoundedly at Xiao Cang and Ya Fei's clasped hands.

"Y-Young Lady Ya Fei is holding hands with a man?!"

"That's impossible! I must be dreaming!"

"What kind of man could win Sister Ya Fei's heart? That guy looks so fair and delicate—could he be some pretty boy Young Lady Ya Fei is keeping?"

"Shh! Are you trying to get yourself killed?! That's the Xiao Family's genius—the Jia Ma Empire's youngest Dou Wang and Fifth-grade Alchemist!"

"So it's him! No wonder he can hold Young Lady Ya Fei's hand..."

"At such a young age, he's not only accomplished in cultivation, but has also won a beauty like Young Lady Ya Fei. I'm green with envy."

"..."

Ya Fei turned a deaf ear to the shocked uproar around them.

Pah! What a temptress!

Xiao Cang cursed inwardly, but since he wanted to enjoy the process of winning her over, he said, "Sister Ya Fei, isn't it a little slow to walk there like this?"

"A little," Ya Fei nodded her snow-white chin.

"Then let's fly there."

As he spoke, Xiao Cang scooped Ya Fei's soft, fragrant body into his arms and carried her in a princess hold.

"Ah!"

Ya Fei cried out in surprise, her slender, fair arms hurriedly wrapping around Xiao Cang's neck.

"Sister Ya Fei, hold on tight."

Xiao Cang spread his Dou Qi Wings. With a flap, he shot into the sky and flew toward the restaurant.

"Little Brother Xiao Cang, it's so high."

Ya Fei looked down, fear flashing through her alluring eyes.

It was her first time being carried into the sky. Her arms held him tightly, her beautiful face pressed against Xiao Cang's neck as her nervous breaths brushed over it.

"It's alright, Sister Ya Fei. I'm here."

Xiao Cang immediately tightened his embrace, pressing Ya Fei's fragrant, soft body even closer to his.

A faint fragrance drifted into his nose, while the oncoming wind blew Ya Fei's robes into disarray.

A short while later, Xiao Cang descended before the Wutan Restaurant with Ya Fei in his arms and gently set her down.

Ya Fei hurriedly smoothed her wind-tousled hair and straightened her disheveled brocade robes.

"Sister Ya Fei, how did flying feel? Not bad, right?" Xiao Cang thoughtfully helped her arrange a few strands of hair as he asked with a warm smile.

Ya Fei gave him a lovely, coquettish glare. "Hmph, Little Brother Xiao Cang got quite an eyeful just now, didn't he? I'm not flying again next time."

"Haha, alright! Let's go in first."

Xiao Cang laughed heartily, took Ya Fei's hand, and strode boldly into the Wutan Restaurant.

The nearby passersby hurriedly made way.

Although they had all recognized Ya Fei at Xiao Cang's side, not a single one dared take another look.

They had all personally witnessed Xiao Cang unfurl his Dou Qi Wings and fly over.

Who would dare gossip about a mighty Dou Wang?

Thus, no matter how astonished, jealous, or envious they were, they could only keep it bottled up inside.

Before Xiao Cang had even entered the restaurant, a smiling middle-aged man came out to greet him.

This man was none other than Su Lu, the head of the Su Family and the true manager of the Wutan Restaurant.

Su Lu had not personally managed the restaurant for a long time, but the moment he heard during the day that Xiao Cang would be coming, he hurried over in person to prepare for his arrival.

However, when he saw that Ya Fei was accompanying Xiao Cang, he froze for a moment.

Su Lu had long expected that, as a Dou Wang, Xiao Cang would hardly lack beautiful women by his side. But he had never imagined that even Ya Fei—the Miter Auction House's gold-medal auctioneer, coveted yet unattainable by countless people in Wutan City—would be accompanying Xiao Cang with such a flirtatious smile.

The next moment, he too put on a fawning smile and said, "Young Master Xiao, Young Lady Ya Fei. This way, please."

Inside the restaurant, music and dancing filled the air, and the atmosphere was rather extravagant.

As one of Wutan City's finest restaurants, it could not compare with those in the Imperial Capital, but it was still quite impressive.

The dragon-and-phoenix-carved beams and pillars, the exquisitely decorated interior—there were four floors in total.

The first three floors were where patrons ate, drank, and made merry, while the fourth floor provided lodging for those seeking pleasure.

The moment Xiao Cang entered the restaurant, he drew countless gazes.

"Who is that? Boss Su actually came to receive him personally? Even when important figures from the three great families come, Boss Su does not necessarily show up himself."

"Gasp! The woman beside him... isn't that Young Lady Ya Fei?"

"Someone who can make Boss Su fawn over him and have Ya Fei accompany him personally—there seems to be only one such person in Wutan City..."

"Xiao Cang of the Xiao Family!"

"That eighteen-year-old Dou Wang?!"

"Gasp... he really is young. He looks several years younger than my own child."

"This is what a true outstanding talent looks like!"

"Then does that mean Young Lady Ya Fei will be accompanying him tonight..."

"..."

A low commotion spread among the restaurant patrons.

Especially among the men who admired Ya Fei, whose eyes reddened with deep jealousy.

Before long, Xiao Cang followed Boss Su up to the Heaven No.1 Private Room on the third floor.

A folding screen stood before the private room. Behind it was a table laden with food and wine, where Xiao Cang and Ya Fei took their seats.

In the dance floor at the center of the third floor, a group of beautiful women were singing and dancing.

Of course, Xiao Cang was not the only one dining on the third floor.

Opposite the stairs, outside Earth No.1 and the other private rooms, members of several fairly powerful families were drinking and enjoying themselves.

Among them was the Jia Lie Family Head, Jia Lie Bi, one of the three great families.

"Ya Fei?"

Jia Lie Bi's pupils contracted, and his expression darkened.

Who in Wutan City did not know that he, Jia Lie Bi, was one of Ya Fei's most devoted admirers?

Over the years, in order to support her auctions, he had spent exorbitant sums bidding on countless items at the auction house. He had even spared no expense in giving Ya Fei many gifts.

Yet every time he tried to invite Ya Fei out for a meal, she would reject him with one excuse or another.

And now, Ya Fei was actually dining with some brat! And she was even smiling at him so flirtatiously, as though she had no dignity at all!

This immediately filled him with rage, and he nearly lost his reason.

"Who is that brat?! Not only has he taken the Heaven No.1 Private Room I usually use, he even has Ya Fei accompanying him!" Jia Lie Bi slammed his palm onto the table with a bang, fury written all over his face.

"F-Family Head, that person seems to be Xiao Cang of the Xiao Family," the servant beside him hurriedly said.

"What?!"

At once, Jia Lie Bi swallowed every curse that had reached his lips. His face turned red from holding them back, and he looked even more miserable than if he had swallowed a fly.
