"That's right. This way, it'll be more interesting. It'll save someone from losing all his money at the Mahjong table because of his bad mood. How boring."
An Shaosi chewed on his cigarette as he looked at Yang Xi. "Miss Yang also looks a little eccentric. The desire in her eyes is very obvious. She is really beautiful."
"Hmph!"
Although his last sentence sounded like a compliment, Yang Xi was uncomfortable. She felt that there was a hidden meaning behind An Shaosi's words.
Yang Xi looked up at him and met his eyes for a moment. His narrowed eyes looked a little devilish.
"Could it be that Young Master An is interested in Miss Yang?" Everyone knew that the Huo family had arranged a blind date banquet today. The purpose had been to set up Huo Zirui and Yang Xi, so the statement sounded like a joke.
An Shaosi looked at the Mahjong in his hand and said playfully, "She's a beauty, who doesn't like her?"
His reply was ambiguous, and Yang Xi felt even more stifled in her heart. She knew that An Shaosi was a trouble maker. He was such a shameless hooligan. She had hoped that he would behave himself in front of so many people!
Why did she have to meet such a person? He was still haunting her, and he had even disrupted her blind date banquet!
She had never met such an annoying person!
Yang Xi did not bother with him. She looked like an arrogant princess. When he saw her lively frown, the interest in An Shaosi's eyes intensified.
The people at the Mahjong table thought that An Shaosi was joking. After all, Yang Xi was already on a blind date with Huo Zirui. She unexpectedly teased, "An Shaosi always has a lot of women around him.
"It's a shame he can't get any one of them to like him." The Mahjong table burst into laughter again. An Shaosi did not overreact and signed sheepishly, "I've made a fool of myself!"
Gu Ruochu was intrigued. Why did An Shaosi repeatedly target Yang Xi?
"An Shaosi wouldn't be interested in Yang Xi, would he?" The people at the table watched as Gu Ruochu and Huo Nanchen whispered into each other's ears. A hint of warmth appeared in their eyes.
"Perhaps."
His lips curled slightly and his deep eyes seemed to want to suck her in.
"Yang Xi may be a little playful, but she's very simple-minded. Is An Shaosi serious?"
Gu Ruochu had heard a lot of rumors about Young Master An. He had transformed his family from a penniless foundling to a newly risen noble dynasty within a year. One could imagine that he was not a good person. At the very least, he must have had a dark side.
"Don't worry, I'm here. I won't let him do anything reckless."
Huo Nanchen understood Young Master An's personality. Normally, An Shaosi did not care about any woman he dated. However, Yang Xi was Ruochu's friend. Huo Nanchen would not let him do anything reckless.
"That's good."
"You two are so lovey-dovey. Do you have to whisper into each other's ears? Are you trying to infuriate us single dogs to death?"
An Shaosi took the cigarette butt out of his mouth. His tone made Gu Ruochu want to slap him in the face. She stood up immediately and said, "I'm going to drink some water."
Huo Nanchen let go of her and nodded. He knew that she was embarrassed and was a little bit thin-skinned in front of her friends.
"I'll accompany you." Yang Xi did not want to stay any longer and look at An Shaosi's face. His words were too disgusting.
After they left, An Shaosi looked away as if nothing had happened.
After taking some water in the kitchen, Gu Ruochu went upstairs. Yang Xi did not want to return to the main hall to look at An Shaosi's annoying face and wandered around the garden.
