Luo Feixuan's other side!

Zhai Zhili had never imagined that Yu Bu'e, who looked so harmless, would lash out without warning.

The sharp pain in his face was nothing compared to the humiliation he felt.

He let out a roar.

"I'll... kill you!"

He braced his hands on the table and was about to rise when he suddenly felt something cold against his neck.

Lin Yuan had already reacted and rushed over to help.

He and Zhai Zhili were close friends. How could he stand by and do nothing?

But after barely two steps, he stopped short. His breathing quickened, his pupils contracted, and he stared fixedly at the fork in Yu Bu'e's hand.

A steel fork was pressed against Zhai Zhili's neck.

With just a little pressure, it would pierce his skin.

"You... are you crazy? What are you doing?" Zhai Zhili's eyes bulged with fury, but he didn't dare move.

In fact, he was already a martial artist at the sixth level of Qi Refining Realm.

If he hadn't been caught completely off guard, Yu Bu'e's surprise attack would never have succeeded.

But now, he truly didn't dare move. His expression remained as vicious as ever, yet a trace of fear had crept into his eyes.

This innocent-looking guy didn't play by the rules at all.

He had no idea what Yu Bu'e would do next.

"Yu Bu'e, you wouldn't actually kill someone, would you? You're still a student. Come on, put the fork down. We're still friends!" Lin Yuan tried to calm him down too.

Bai Shiya had gone deathly pale with fright. Her lips moved, but she didn't know what to say.

Yu Bu'e reached out and lightly patted Zhai Zhili's face.

"Young Master Zhai, let's make a bet. Bet on whether I have the guts to kill you. How about it?"

Zhai Zhili's face went white.

Yu Bu'e's smile vanished, and he suddenly raised his voice.

"Look me in the eye, you bastard!"

Zhai Zhili trembled, making the porcelain dishes on the table clink together.

"Yu... classmate Yu, I was running my mouth earlier. Let's talk this through..." Zhai Zhili's tone immediately softened.

Just then, the door to the private dining room opened.

Tongtong and Luo Feixuan hurried inside after hearing the commotion.

Both stared in astonishment at the scene before them.

Seeing them, Yu Bu'e tossed the fork aside and dusted off his hands.

"You should've taken the bet. You would've won, too."

Zhai Zhili sprang to his feet and was about to charge at him when Luo Feixuan snapped, "Stop! Zhai Zhili, what do you think you're doing?"

Zhai Zhili stopped, his face flushed bright red.

"Xuanxuan, didn't you see? This brat attacked me!"

Luo Feixuan gave a cold laugh, strode forward, and planted herself between them.

With a vicious look in his eyes, Zhai Zhili declared, "Xuanxuan, this brat just threatened to kill me!"

"Oh. Did you thank him?" Luo Feixuan asked expressionlessly.

Zhai Zhili: "???"

Luo Feixuan turned to Yu Bu'e and took his arm, concern written all over her face.

"Are you all right?"

Yu Bu'e smiled and shook his head.

To be honest, Luo Feixuan had been badly startled when she first walked in.

She had never seen Yu Bu'e like this before.

Yu Bu'e was good-tempered, gentle, and rarely got angry. That was something many people at school agreed on.

But when a gentle person suddenly stopped being gentle, it could be frightening.

Lin Yuan couldn't stand watching this any longer. "Miss Luo, let's be reasonable. Your friend was the one who attacked first!

"Look at Young Master Zhai's face. There's a cut on it! And he looked ready to kill someone. Even if he's your friend, you can't take his side..."

He kept rambling, and Luo Feixuan grew irritated. She cut him off without the slightest regard for his dignity.

"Shut up!"

Lin Yuan's expression changed. His lips moved, but he said nothing.

Luo Feixuan turned to face Zhai Zhili, then glanced at Lin Yuan.

"I brought him here, and he's my friend. I know what kind of person he is.

"Besides... is there something wrong with your brains? Why are you telling me all this? I'm here to back up my friend, not decide who's right!"

Zhai Zhili sneered. "Xuanxuan, aren't we your friends too?"

"Friends? You think you're worthy? The only reason I didn't settle the score with you last time was that your father came to me." Luo Feixuan scoffed.

Watching the girl standing in front of him, Yu Bu'e smiled.

He gently closed his hand around her slender wrist, his expression calm.

Luo Feixuan glanced back at him and asked softly, "Have you had enough to eat?"

"Yes."

"Then let's go."

"All right."

Luo Feixuan took Yu Bu'e's hand and prepared to leave. Unwilling to let them go, Zhai Zhili immediately raised his arm to block them.

Without a word, Luo Feixuan picked up a ceramic bowl beside her and hurled it at his head.

Reacting instinctively, Zhai Zhili tilted his head aside. The bowl grazed his ear and slammed into the wall, shattering into pieces.

He broke out in a cold sweat, grateful that he had dodged it.

Rage surged through him, and he glared at Luo Feixuan. But the moment his eyes met hers, it was as though a hand had clamped around his throat.

For a long while, he couldn't force out a single word.

Her gaze was like a sword suddenly drawn from its sheath, glinting with the cold light of the moon.

"Zhai Zhili, have I... been giving you too much respect?"

Zhai Zhili's lips quivered, but not a single syllable came out.

"Believe it or not, I can sell that mistress of a mother of yours to a nightclub today."

With that, she led Yu Bu'e out of the private dining room.

Zhai Zhili remained rooted to the spot, not daring to move.

He looked like a statue.

Yu Bu'e stared at Luo Feixuan's back with a strange expression.

He thought back to what she had just said to Zhai Zhili in the dining room.

It had certainly been an eye-opener...

Once they were outside the restaurant, Luo Feixuan glanced at Yu Bu'e behind her, smiled awkwardly, and smoothed her hair.

"Sorry about that. I thought we'd just be having a meal. I didn't expect someone so obnoxious to be there."

Yu Bu'e asked quietly, "Wasn't that threat you made a little too harsh?"

More importantly, it sounded outrageous no matter how he looked at it!

Luo Feixuan smiled. "Who said I was just making a threat?"

"???"

Luo Feixuan sighed and began to explain.

In short, she had previously attended a banquet on behalf of the Chen Family and happened to run into Zhai Zhili's mother.

The woman had started out as a mistress before becoming the wife. She spoke without restraint and had a distinctly tawdry air about her. Luo Feixuan knew her background, but merely meeting her eyes had somehow made the woman feel insulted.

Who knew where she had found the nerve, but she had marched right up to Luo Feixuan and accused her of learning bad habits at such a young age, coming to an upscale banquet to hook a rich man.

With her temper, Luo Feixuan wasn't about to indulge her. She waved a hand on the spot and had people shove the woman into a car.

The car had already stopped outside the club when Zhai Zhili's father called. Only after pleading at length and offering concessions had he persuaded her to drop the matter.

Yu Bu'e listened, dumbfounded, until Luo Feixuan snapped her fingers in front of his face.

"Well? Have you suddenly realized there are plenty of sides to me you don't know about?"

Yu Bu'e nodded blankly.

Luo Feixuan stepped forward, leaving less than twenty centimeters between them. She rose gently onto her toes and brought her face closer. The streetlight spilled across her face, lending it a pale golden glow.

Her pink lips parted slightly, and her voice grew sweeter.

"Yu Bu'e, how about I give you a chance to get to know me, little by little?"
