"This medicine is too bad. I don't want to take it anymore." A little squishy bun looked at her father with teary eyes.
"Little Lei, don't you want to be strong?" Hu Ming asked while pinching her plumb cheeks.
"But I am not sick." Little Hu Lei protested once again.
Hu Ming picked the three-year old or so girl and held her in his arms.
"When you grow up, you will realise that the world is complicated and scary. But if you keep drinking this medicine, you will be changed. You will have the strength to defeat anyone who tries to harm you. You will even be able to protect Daddy." Hu Ming explained.
The little girl thought about it for a moment before nodding.
"Alright, I will grow strong and protect you." She said solemnly.
In the king-size bed in a certain penthouse, a cute woman in the arms of a handsome man opened her eyes with an eerie suddenness, revealing bright eyes. She remained in place for a moment before smoothly escaping from the arms of the man. Her moves were like those of contortionist and almost otherworldly. The man did not awake.
Without a single sound, the woman left the room and the penthouse without disturbing anything. It was as if she was a phantom.
In another part of Supreme City, three men were drinking in a private room of Changeling, an exclusive high-end club. There were also some beautiful women drinking with them while flattering them with toasts, coquettish glances and random flattery.
Unfortunately, the lively atmosphere did not seem to touch the handsome man at the middle of the room. He seemed lost in his thoughts. If Hu Lei were in this room, she might have recognised this man as the person she had rescued during her late night joyride not too long ago.
"Young Master Qi, it is my pleasure to meet you in person. Please allow me to toast to you." One of the beautiful women in the room approached this good-looking man.
Qi Han looked up at the appealing lady smiling coyly. He could not remember her name, but he was certain that she was an upcoming singer signed in his company. He could understand her intentions in approaching him. After all, the easiest method for climbing up was finding the right backing.
Under normal circumstances, he would drink with this beautiful lady and tease her a little. If the situation was right, they might even have a mutually beneficial alliance afterwards. However, he did not have patience for that now.
His mind was occupied by the lithe figure of his perfect woman. He had replayed that scene on that night so many times in his head until he had every detail etched in his mind. He remembered her recklessness as she rode the motorcycle while those thugs shot at her. He could see the stunts she pulled, sweeping away those men like they were nothing.
And then, she took off her helmet. From the cascade of her black hair to the unusual yellow contact lens, she was beautiful. She was like a fairy that descended from the heavens. The gap between her wild behaviour and her innocent and guileless appearance was like ambrosia to him.
"Young master Qi…" A pleasant voice broke his string of memories and fantasies.
The singer was talking again. Unluckily for her, Qi Han was not in the mood to toast.
"Why don't you drink with me, beautiful lady?" Young master Mo spoke flirtatiously.
The small celebrity was a little reluctant because her mind was set on Qi Han. After all, this man was a powerhouse in the entertainment industry. He had also taken control of his family's business completely. Young master Mo came from a more powerful family. However, he had multiple outstanding siblings. His individual power was low.
She glanced at Qi Han once again, hoping for a change in expression. She was, after all, a beautiful woman. He had to feel a little hesitant about letting her drink with someone else when she had approached him first. However, the young master had sunk back into his thoughts.
The other man in the private room realised that Qi Han was in a poor mood. Unlike Mo Ge, Wang Che had a more collected personality. He did not flirt unnecessarily and was often the voice of reason in their little group.
"Ladies, young master Qi is not well. Can you leave us?" he spoke with the politeness of a true gentleman.
Even though he was chasing them out, the women in the room felt their hearts palpitate. Wang Che was like a prince in Supreme City, and he was the dream husband of countless women. He had the polite bearing of an ancient Western member of the court. His favourability and charm even overshadowed the famous Bei Gong Hai. People felt that he was a little better than Hai. After all, idols were everyone's husbands.
Unfortunately, it was difficult to approach this type of man and form a relationship. He was polite to everyone, but he somehow kept everyone at a distant. It was frustrating for those who would be satisfied with just one night with the incomparable man.
The ladies protested to his decision with coquettish glances, some whines and offers to help young master Qi feel better.
"You can continue partying without us. We will pick up the tab as an apology." Mo Ge interjected with a flirtatious smile.
The protests calmed down, and the ladies left the room on a more cheerful note. The two young men in the room turned to the morose Qi Han. They looked at each other before turning back again to their friend.
"Young master Qi, why are you sulking?" Mo Ge asked with a mischievous look on his face. He lifted his hand and poked Qi Han's cheek a little. His hand was promptly slapped away.
"Get that filthy hand away from me." Qi Han barked at him. Who knew what he had touched?
"Is there a problem with your company or at home?" Wang Che inquired.
Qi Han shook his head. In the last week, he had managed to settle that ungrateful stepbrother of his who had the audacity to drug him and send thugs to dig out information and kill him. Moreover, his grandfather was also happy with him because he had showed that he was a reliable businessman, not just someone going with the flow.
However, he did not feel happy about his accomplishments. In fact, he felt a little sick and nauseous. There was also a sense of restlessness which seemed to gnaw at him. If he did not find that girl, he would not feel at peace.
"Could it be that young master Qi has fallen in love?" Mo Ge asked in a loud and shocked tone.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
