Qi Mingyu

"I just finished a surgery and I still smell like disinfectant."

Qi Mingyue complained to Xu Lan as soon as she entered.

She glanced up and down and said to the bartender, "Give her a glass."

"I'm driving."

Qi Mingyue had just finished speaking when she suddenly turned around and covered half of her face with her arm. She whispered, "Not good, my brother…"

Xu Lan was surprised. She followed the direction of her gaze and saw two men coming down from the seats facing this direction.

She narrowed her eyes and looked back. "It's okay. I'll distracct them for you."

Still worried, Qi Mingyue turned half her body towards the exit.

Sure enough, not long after, the man actually came over. It was just that he was not looking for Qi Mingyue, but Xu Lan.

"Miss, shall we have a drink together?"

"Sure?"

Xu Lan did not try to avoid him, but her eyes darted toward Qi Mingyue, who was still hiding.

One of the two men said in surprise, "Mingyue?"

Qi Mingyue braced herself and turned around. When she saw the person in front of her, she took a deep breath and forced a smile. "Hi ~"

The two of them were not her brothers. The real Qi Mingyu was still sitting at his seat.

"Xu Lan, are we going over?"

Xu Lan had already gotten up, and she grabbed her arm.

Before Xu Lan could say anything, the man standing beside them said, "Mingyue, what are you doing? You have such a beautiful friend, yet you didn't even introduce her to your brothers."

Qi Mingyue glared at the man and pouted at Xu Lan.

After a stalemate, the two of them went to their private seats.

Xu Lan knew that Qi Mingyue was an heiress from a wealthy family, but she had never asked about the details of her family. Now, as she sat down, a slender hand handed her a glass of wine.

She looked up and met a deep gaze.

The man had a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, and the ends of his eyes were slightly raised. He had a faint smile on his face. He wore a pair of gold-framed glasses, a light gray sweater, and a shirt of the same color. He looked gentle and refined, yet noble and charming.

"You look pretty young."

He was speaking to Xu Lan, but glanced at Qi Mingyue.

Because the girl was afraid of her brother, she stuck close to Xu Lan and did not even dare to raise her head.

Xu Lan patted her hand and gave Qi Mingyu a standard smile. "I'm 18 years old, in year three."

As soon as he said that, all the young masters started to exclaim, "I really couldn't tell."

Xu Lan knew that they could not tell her age.

Although she was thin and weak, she was well-developed. A low-collared sweater paired with a short black leather skirt made her legs look slender and straight. Her upper body was slender and her waist small, but she was voluptuous. Anyone who saw her would find it difficult to tear their eyes off her.

"Eldest Young Master Qi."

Xu Lan ignored the two men. She raised the glass on the table in front of her and waved it at Qi Mingyu, who was leaning against the sofa, before downing the glass in one gulp.

Instantly, the three of them applauded.

Seeing this, Qi Mingyue slowly let go of Xu Lan and looked at her brother, not as scared as before.

"Good drinker."

Qi Mingyu stared at Xu Lan, his eyes shining.

Then, he shifted his gaze and said in a gentle voice, "Mingyue, aren't you going to introduce your friend?"

Qi Mingyue glanced at Xu Lan and said bashfully, "She's Xu Lan, and she's about to take the college entrance examination."

With that, she pulled Xu Lan out of the private room.

As soon as she entered the hall, Xu Lan saw Xu Yan being held at the waist by a man as they walked toward a private room.

"Who is that?"

Qi Mingyue asked curiously when she saw her staring in a certain direction.

She was about to follow when her phone vibrated.

Xu Lan looked away and hung up without hesitation.

As soon as she entered the private room, she received a text message: "Where are you?"

Xu Lan stopped in her tracks and frowned. She quickly replied, [Home]

Just as she was about to put the phone away, she received another text message: "Come and have a drink with me."

???

Xu Lan stared at her phone and could not move at all.

Qi Mingyue saw that she was acting abnormally all of a sudden. She looked forward and then turned back.

Xu Lan had already turned around and returned to the hall.

She searched for the familiar figure amidst the crowd. It was impossible for her to find him on the dance floor. With just a glance, she turned to another seat.

Qi Mingyu and the others were laughing when they saw her. They all looked over.

Xu Lan did not look at them, but she accidentally caught sight of a few people sitting in the VIP seats on the second floor.

She guessed that Yan Si should be there, so she went to the stairs on the second floor.
