"Friend?" Yu Qiao bit her lip lightly, her eyes seemed to be tinged with red, exuding a delicate charm. Her voice was soft and gentle as she followed Yu Lingze through the winding path to the transparent elevator.
As the elevator ascends, you can overlook the splendor of City A through the transparent glass, including the Bund.
"Brother, what kind of friend?" Yu Qiao blinked curiously, her fox-like eyes gazing at Yu Lingze with wide, watery eyes.
Yu Lingze is aloof and withdrawn. Apart from necessary business social interactions, Yu Qiao has never seen him have any friends.
Could it be...?
Yu Qiao narrowed her fox-like eyes again, flashing a mischievous grin at him, revealing a set of small white teeth: "Girlfriend?"
"..." A hint of absurdity flashed across Yu Lingze's eyes. He lowered his brows and shook his head helplessly, his eyes sparkling with a touch of tenderness and doting. He pushed away Yu Qiao's head that was leaning forward: "Male friend, he is a boxer here."
"Hmm?" Yu Qiao raised her fox-like eyes slightly, clearly even more curious.
The elevator doors opened with a "ding-dong," revealing a magnificent crystal chandelier, a dark-toned interior, and a seemingly endless corridor.
Yu Ling then walked forward skillfully, and the attendant standing by immediately greeted him respectfully and led the way.
Finally, it stopped outside the innermost private room.
"Knock knock knock~"
Yu Lingze knocked on the door.
Yu Qiao stared intently at the door.
A snap.
The sound of the lock turning rang out, and the door was gently pushed open, revealing a rugged and wild face.
It was Pei Jin.
Pei Jin had just finished showering in the inner room. He was wearing loose black clothes that revealed a large expanse of wheat-colored skin, and his bulging muscles were ready to be unleashed.
His thick, dark eyebrows were as sharp as blades, slanting into his temples, exuding a coldness and ruthlessness. His narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes were deep and sharp, like ice that had never melted in a thousand years. Just being swept by his gaze made one's scalp tingle.
Yu Qiao gripped Yu Lingze's arm tightly, feeling depressed as she recalled He Ye's words.
How could my brother be friends with such a... pervert?
Isn't that just perverted?
He even specifically targeted women who had boyfriends with forced kisses?
Is this... a preference for being a mistress?
It's true, she has such a beautiful face, but it's all for nothing.
Yu Qiao mumbled something on her cheek.
It's her.
Pei Jin's slender fingers suddenly curled up, veins bulging on his arms. The image of those fox-like eyes he had just met on the field flashed through his mind—charming, alluring, and incredibly beautiful.
Suddenly feeling parched, Pei Jin shifted his gaze to Yu Lingze, his tone stiff: "Is...is something wrong?"
"You know Ah Qiao?" Yu Lingze immediately sensed the subtle tension between the two. His fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a calm yet chillingly dangerous aura.
Upon hearing this, Pei Jin pursed his thin lips, not looking at Yu Qiao, and said, "I don't know her."
"I just watched him fight in a boxing match," Yu Qiao admitted. "He's pretty good." It's just that his character isn't great.
Yu Qiao didn't dare to say the last sentence aloud, but she glanced at Pei Jin with her fox-like eyes narrowed slightly.
Pei Jin's whole body was tense, his back straight, like a sculpture, and the tips of his ears began to turn red.
Yu Lingze scrutinized the two of them, but seeing nothing amiss, his tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Pei Jin, this is my sister, Yu Qiao."
"Ah Qiao, this is the friend I told you about, Pei Jin."
Veins bulged on Pei Jin's neck. He tilted his head slightly, his phoenix eyes revealing an ambiguous emotion. He stubbornly asked, "What...what do you want with me?"
Is he a stutterer?
