Xiao Mei Zhi went out of the lady's comfort room. Doctor Tan was clever enough to send her inside without other people, aside from Qiji. "What did Doctor Tan ask you to do?"
"Look for love,"
Qiji snickered at the thoughts of Xiao Mei Zhi being in love with a man; she was still young to understand, but the way she sees Xiao Mei Zhi, her opinion sticks on 'Poor man.' Nevertheless, there was nothing wrong with trying.
"Need some help?" A bouncer approached them, and Xiao Mei Zhi answered, "Yes, may I ask what is this place?"
"You entered here, but you did not know? How old are you?" The bouncer glanced at her and then at Qiji, "And how old is she?" She did not want to lie, but there was nothing she could do but stay in action.
"Both of us are at the age to fuck. Would that be enough for you as my answer?"
Qiji blinked her eyes as if she saw a different Xiao Mei Zhi.
"Alright, I am convinced. Both of you seemed to look old. You ladies must know that this is the lowkey best Pub in Tianjin. Only those who could afford to stay here are the sons and daughters of politicians, amateur actors and actresses, and another high status."
"And why is this called lowkey if people here have high statuses?" Qiji asked excitedly, and Xiao Mei Zhi was not expecting her to be active.
"Because this is a secret hide-out."
"Oh, tell me more about this pub then," Qiji said when Xiao Mei Zhi decided to leave her alone. Because bouncer nodded his head as he continued discussing the best things inside the pub and its history.
She sat in a swivel chair, placed her elbows on the bar table, and scratched her head before messing her hair. She was feeling betrayed by Doctor Tan, and her assignment would not work well. However, she was not willing to finish it either way.
"Care to share your problem with me, Miss?" Xiao Mei Zhi did not think so, "What? I do not think talking to you will help,"
"How about a drink? I will make one for you, for free." The bartender wiggled his eyebrows as a sign that she could not reject his offer.
"Fine. Just do the non-alcoholic kind."
While waiting for her drink, she heard people discussing the Free Fire world cup, and she was losing hope in dreaming about it. Her plan was starting to become vintage and dissipated. Nevertheless, she was confident it could not be worse than what she had just left behind. Her To-do-list placed under her pillow was the only companion she had when she locked herself up.
"Are you aiming for the prize or the trophy?"
"Does my team care about the trophy? Surely, they want the prize so they can upgrade their skills."
Xiao Mei Zhi's character has always been silent and unaffected by what the people are talking about, but this time, she does not want to stay in her place because she wants those bastards to shut up and say nothing more about the world cup.
"You know, if your team aims for the price, then there is no point in continuing to play with that kind of leader in the team. They must know by now that you are just using them for money since all of you can benefit from it."
"Do you mind minding your own business," When the man raised his head, Xiao Mei Zhi turned her head back and faced the clean table? Well, it has some white spots, but it was easy to wipe it away using a tissue.
"What is wrong with her? She ruined my mood," The people she was trying to shut off were walking away. Their voices faded until she heard nothing—no more topics related to the Free Fire World Cup.
"Here is your drink, enjoy!" The bartender gave her two folded tissues before handing over her glass of non-alcoholic drink, but it looked like a beer and smelled like one too. But since she had no idea about how the smell of the drink, she continued. Finally, she slightly burped, "Oh no," The bartender panicked, "I accidentally gave her the alcoholic drink, Andreios."
Xiao Mei Zhi felt her skin was burning up, but before she could make any movements, Valor Andreios attention was on her.
"Bashert?"
Xiao Mei Zhi tried to focus on the unknown face, but her sight became blurry, making her dizzy. "What is wrong with her?" She then froze as she heard Qiji's voice.
"Qiji.."
Qiji on the area felt anxious; with her legacy phone active, she called for help.
"Did you hit a girl again, our future Alpha?"
"Who is she?"
Seven who were curious tried to peek a look at Xiao Mei Zhi, and his jaw dropped.
"It is her,"
"You know her?"
"Beat, check this out. It is the woman that we met earlier."
"Do not surround her, and she passed out. It would be best if we lay her down on the couch."
It was as if Qiji saw a prisoner trying to abduct Xiao Mei Zhi in front of her as she was talking on the phone; there were fewer things she could do in this situation because she was young.
Valor Andreios had been Beat and Seven's friends since birth. He 'is' their future alpha. And doing well in dealing with people would increase his reputation with his soon-to-be people or followers.
But before Qiji could say anything to Valor Andreios, Beat told him something else first. "Be careful not to get involved more with this kind of humans."
Qiji suddenly tensed up and could not care less about her safety in the current situation. All she could think was to protect Xiao Mei Zhi and not let anybody say bad things about her, "You better leave your opinion to yourself."
Seven looked at Qiji before he relayed a message to Beat, "You told me to be a gentleman, now you ask him to not get involved? We might as well let him discuss this kind of matter later, once she is settled on the couch."
