Meng Qi was silently cursing Gu Xiaosang when he noticed the others staring at him. He looked up only to see Mi Zijing and Bai Wenyuan with surprised expressions that instantly gave way to boorish grins. They raised their cups and toasted him. They hadn't known that Su Meng, the Killing Blade, was such a man! Indeed, one couldn't judge a book by its cover. He looked so upright and heroic but was even more wicked than they were!
Bai Wenyuan set his cup down and saluted Meng Qi to show his respect.
Wang Zai was absolutely horrified. It was as if he was seeing Meng Qi in a new light. He appeared embarrassed and unhappy to be associated with Meng Qi.
They were at least on the Seven Apertures level and had excellent hearing and sight. Thus, they still heard Nianxue despite her whispering into Meng Qi's ear at such close distance amid the sound of stringed instruments!
Buzz... Meng Qi felt as if his head had just been hit by a giant sledgehammer.
