Chapter 216 The Long River



In the hall, there was a man surrounded by several women.

The women all stared at the man with infatuated eyes, and some couldn't wait to pretend to accidentally get close to him.

Seeing someone break the rules like this, the others rushed to get closer to the man.

However, I didn't even touch the hem of their clothes.

All the men present glared angrily at the man, feeling both envy and jealousy towards his good fortune with women.

She was already annoyed to learn that Black Rose was taken, and now a man who appeared out of nowhere has attracted the attention of many women.

Xie Wei looked up and saw a man over 1.8 meters tall, with neat short hair, a straight back, and a strong physique that filled out his gray suit. It was Ye Yan.

"Are you envious too?" Zhao Yujin asked casually when she saw Xie Wei staring in that direction.

She seemed quite jealous, but Xie Wei simply smiled and said, "With you here, why should I envy others?"

This sentence pleased Zhao Yujin.

"Let's go take a look," Xie Wei said, pointing in Ye Yan's direction.

Zhao Yujin asked curiously, "When did you start having the leisure to watch a play?"

Xie Weize said, "Eating melons is an innate skill for every Chinese person, especially when it's melons from acquaintances."

Upon hearing Xie Wei refer to him as an acquaintance, Zhao Yujin became interested.

Xie Wei led Zhao Yujin toward Ye Yan, and the people surrounding Ye Yan unconsciously made way for them.

Zhao Yujin couldn't help but marvel at Xie Wei's improved control over spiritual power.

"Brother Xie!" Ye Yan exclaimed in surprise when he saw Xie Wei approaching.

Brother Ye

Ye Yan looked at the person with rose patterns beside Xie Wei and bowed respectfully, saying, "This must be Black Rose, the leader of the Rose Gang. I've heard so much about you."

Zhao Yujin simply said, "Hello."

This place was already attracting attention because of Ye Yan, and now with the addition of Xie Wei and Zhao Yujin, all eyes in the room are focused on it.

Xie Wei leaned closer to Ye Yan and asked in a low voice, "Brother Ye, what brings you here?"

"This is a long story, and this isn't the place to talk. Brother Xie, you've come at the right time. Please help me deal with them." The "them" Ye Yan referred to were the people around him.

Xie Wei smiled faintly and then said, "I can't help you in this situation. Good luck to you. Let's talk outside."

After saying that, Xie Wei led Zhao Yujin away from this troublesome place, and the women around them were already looking at him with very strange eyes.

After Xie Wei and his companion left, the surrounding people quickly swarmed around them again.

"Miss Rose, it's been a long time," a voice rang out.

Xie Wei looked up. He recognized the person as Lu Changqing's eldest son, Lu Changjiang.

That's the one who pursued Black Rose, tried to force her with violence, and was eventually driven away.

When Zhao Yujin saw that the person who came was this scoundrel, she just nodded coldly and then leaned slightly towards Xie Wei, as if she found the person in front of her disgusting.

In reality, Lu Changjiang is not a clean slate. As the young leader of the Bear Gang, what hasn't he done? Since he used force to oppress Hei Qiangwei, he must have used it on other girls as well. Hei Qiangwei still had the ability to protect herself, but what became of those girls without a background?

Seeing Zhao Yujin's actions made Lu Changjiang, who already harbored resentment, even more unhappy, and this time he turned his attention to Xie Wei.

He had heard that Black Rose had brought a man over, and he wondered what kind of person he was, so he came to see for himself and, by the way, to mock him.

When Lu Changjiang recognized Xie Wei, he felt uneasy. This was someone even his father couldn't afford to offend.

Upon seeing that it was Xie Wei, Lu Changjiang swallowed all the sarcastic remarks he was about to make.

“Young Master Xie, you…you’ve come to celebrate my brother’s eighteenth birthday too?” Lu Changjiang’s face showed an embarrassed expression. “Your presence is truly an honor for our family.”

Looking at the constipated expression on the person in front of him, Xie Wei could roughly guess what the other person was thinking.

Xie Wei said casually, "Well, I had nothing else to do, and since she wanted to come, I just followed her."

After saying that, he put his arm around Zhao Yujin's waist, which had a slightly provocative tone.

Seeing Xie Wei's childish behavior, Zhao Yujin happily snuggled closer to him.

Lu Changjiang had never seen Black Rose act like a little girl before. His eyes were spitting fire, but he had to swallow his anger because the person in front of him was the famous heir of the Xie family.

After composing himself, he said, "I need to attend to other matters related to the banquet, so I won't disturb you any longer."

"He's gone, Sister Jue, you can come out now."

Zhao Yujin didn't move, just nestled in Xie Wei's arms and refused to come out.

Seeing this, Xie Wei could only sigh helplessly.

Sensing an inexplicable sense of being watched, Xie Wei slightly raised his head and looked in the direction of that gaze.

A man in a suit stood on the second-floor railing, watching the two of them.

Xie Wei recognized the newcomer's appearance. This person bore a resemblance to Lu Changjiang from earlier, but appeared more youthful. He figured this person was none other than Lu Changhe, the star of today's banquet.

Seeing Xie Wei look up, Lu Changhe nodded and smiled at him.

Seeing that the visitor meant him no harm, Xie Wei politely nodded in return.

After receiving Xie Wei's response, Lu Changhe turned and left.

"Huh? That person is Lu Changhe, do you know him?" Zhao Yujin, who had somehow gotten out of Xie Wei's arms, asked as she watched Lu Changhe's departing figure.
