C1 Treasurehunting and Revenge!
"The wind, I told you, I am your legs."
Outside a private room at the Rose Club in City A, Youran recalled her promise and pushed the door open.
Inside, a man was lounging on the leather sofa, pretending to nap. His slightly tousled black hair and the slightly wrinkled shirt with two buttons undone revealed a tantalizing glimpse of his chiseled chest and defined abs.
Youran, with her slender legs, swayed her way over to him and sat softly in his lap, offering a seductive smile. "Muchen, I'm here to keep you company for a drink."
"A drink?" Muchen raised an eyebrow, a faint, teasing smile playing on his lips. His long arm wrapped around her waist, his tone playful. "With a face and figure like yours, just having a drink would be a waste."
Youran's fiery red evening gown accentuated her curves, the slit revealing her long, fair legs. Feeling a bit self-conscious under his gaze, she maintained a captivating smile, her hand caressing his firm chest. "Muchen, let me entertain you tonight."
Her voice was sultry, stirring the senses. As soon as she finished speaking, Muchen gripped her waist with one hand and swiftly tore open her neckline with the other.
"Then I'll oblige you!"
"Ah!"
Youran gasped as her black lace lingerie was exposed to the air, her soft curves pressing against his solid chest. His dark eyes seemed casual, yet they observed everything with keen precision.
"Muchen, you're hurting me, let go," Youran said, striving to remain composed, her smile unwavering as she gently pushed against his hand.
Xi Muchen tightened his grip, his hand wandering across her back as he lazily murmured in her ear, "Since you're here to entertain, you should know the rules. Unless, of course, you're not."
He emphasized "unless, of course, you're not," causing Luo Youran's heart to skip a beat.
She took a deep breath, her lowered gaze turning cold, and calmly offered the drink again. "Mr. Xi, have this drink first, and then we can do whatever you want."
Xi Muchen's dark eyes were fixed on the woman beneath him. Her long, beautiful eyes had a fox-like allure, slightly flushed around the edges, with upturned corners that exuded charm. Her gaze was mesmerizing, full of seductive allure.
Her small, diamond-shaped mouth moved enticingly, captivating even Xi Muchen, who had seen countless women...
This was the moment!
Luo Youran seized the opportunity, her smile vanishing.
She quickly flicked the black gemstone ring on her right index finger, revealing a blade less than half an inch long.
Sharp and gleaming, it shone with a cold light.
"Speak! Where's the Blood Bracelet?" Her voice was icy, sharp as a knife.
The sharp edge of the black gemstone ring on her right index finger pressed against Xi Muchen's carotid artery.
Xi Muchen felt the cold threat at his neck. He didn't resist, instead rising compliantly, chuckling, "Roses do have thorns..."
Luo Youran wasn't interested in small talk, her vigilance high. "Shut up! You have two choices: tell me where the Blood Bracelet is or cancel tonight's main auction item! Pick one!"
Her fierce gaze made Xi Muchen's brow twitch heavily. This woman was outrageously bold, yet irresistibly captivating.
For the first time in his life, he found himself intensely intrigued by a woman.
Xi Muchen, like a regal king, smirked slightly as he leisurely brushed through her dark hair, saying lazily, "I'm not really interested in either of those options, but you, you intrigue me."
Luo Youran, unaccustomed to such humiliation, responded with a chilling smile, "Fine! Then let me show you what I'm capable of!"
With that, the black gemstone ring on her right finger swiftly revealed a sharp blade, pressing it against the man's carotid artery. Her eyes narrowed with determination as she prepared to make her move.
Suddenly, the earpiece in her diamond stud crackled with Mo Feng's voice, "Youran, there's a change in plans. I've found the location of the Blood Bracelet! It's on the truck at the marked spot. You need to retreat."
What!
The words were so soft only she could hear them, leaving her momentarily stunned.
Mo Feng was her mentor and savior, the only family she had in this world. Ten years ago, he injured his leg saving her, and she promised to be his legs from then on.
Because she loved Mo Feng! More than she loved herself!
Mo Feng had told her that the Blood Bracelet held clues to her parents' murder. Today, Xi Muchen had secretly taken the Blood Bracelet, and upon receiving the intel, she had dressed seductively and personally set out. It wasn't just about reclaiming the treasure; it was about revenge!
Every move Luo Youran made was quietly observed by Xi Muchen.
She turned off the earpiece and coldly ordered Xi Muchen, "Turn around!"
With a calm expression, Xi Muchen turned his back to her, and Luo Youran delivered a sharp blow to the back of his head.
He fell onto the sofa in pain, and Luo Youran looked at him with disdain. Her slender, elegant leg stepped forward, her peep-toe high heels pressing into the wool carpet.
Luo Youran climbed out the window, her alluring face visible against the smooth wall as she made her escape.
When Mr. Wang entered the room, he was so shocked his eyes nearly popped out. "Young Master Xi, are you alright? You knew that woman was trouble, so why did you let her in?"
Xi Muchen touched the wound on his neck and gave a sly smile. "You can't catch a tiger cub without entering the tiger's den."
Mr. Wang paused for a moment, then said quietly, "Young Master Xi, her ring... everyone knows the Mercenary King 'Fire Fox' prefers to use sharp, thin blades. This woman seems a lot like her. If she really is, the Blood Bracelet might be in danger."
Hearing this, Xi Muchen waved his hand dismissively and calmly instructed, "The Blood Bracelet I acquired today is still in transit. It's been switched. Go personally to retrieve it for me. Also, have someone follow that woman, and then..."
