Liu Mei playfully winked, but she wasn't angered by his words. She responded coyly, "Alone? For a deeper understanding? Master Xia, are you joking?"
"No jokes," Xia Chen said, his eyes gleaming with intensity.
"In that case, I would feel embarrassed if it were just the two of us!" Liu Mei retorted with a hint of anger.
Xia Chen secretly sighed inwardly, realizing that Liu Mei truly lived up to her reputation as the water snake. Her mental fortitude was impressive. Although he was merely pretending, his heart was stirred.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about! What do you think? There's a big bed upstairs!" Xia Chen pointed towards the stairs, eliciting salivating looks from Lu Wenying and the others.
They didn't see anything wrong with Xia Chen's suggestion. After all, a woman like Liu Mei was indeed rare.
