Chapter 713: Seemed to Be Siblings

Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

The two walked into the movie theater together, with Li Zhen pretending to be affectionate, standing close to Mei Shu, as if he wanted everyone to misunderstand them as a couple.

Mei Shu walked ahead with a blank expression, looking helpless when she received the movie tickets. “Can you stop walking so close to people? The path is so wide; can’t you walk on the other side?”

“No!” Li Zhen thought Mei Shu couldn’t stand it anymore and smugly raised his chin at her.

But in reality, to outsiders, Li Zhen looked like an annoyed little brother. Ignoring him, Mei Shu went to the front desk with him to get the movie tickets. The attendant at the front desk curiously looked back and forth between the two. “This is your combo meal. Is there anything else you need help with?” “Yes.” Mei Shu took the movie tickets and popcorn first, then looked somewhat resigned. “Could you get me a small toy from the shelf? I’ll give it to my little brother.”

“Sure, ma’am, please wait!” The attendant hurried to fetch it and happened to meet her colleague next to her, who was pouring cola into cups. She leaned over and whispered, “Hey, what’s the relationship between these two? They don’t seem like a couple!”

Her colleague glanced over cautiously and nodded in agreement. “Indeed, they don’t. Could they be siblings?”

“It’s very likely!” The attendant returned with the toy, smiling warmly. “Here’s the toy you wanted. Please pay over here.”

“Okay.” Mei Shu reached for her phone, but for some reason, Li Zhen rushed to pay first.

Mei Shu brushed his hand away. “Enough, stop spending your family’s money. I’m buying something for my brother; I don’t need your help.”

Li Zhen’s face turned pale, almost with a hint of gritted teeth as he lowered his voice accusingly, “Do you have to embarrass me in front of others?”

Mei Shu smirked mysteriously. “I’m not trying to embarrass you. They just said you look like my little brother. What can I do?”

Li Zhen gritted his teeth in anger and glared at the attendant at the front desk.

The attendant felt a bit bewildered for a moment, then she saw the woman happily paying the bill and then patting the boy’s shoulder next to her. “Let’s go, little brother, the movie is about to start.”

Li Zhen clenched his fists, following behind her with an increasingly gloomy expression.

He was distracted throughout the movie, but Mei Shu seemed to be enjoying herself, munching on popcorn and occasionally taking sips of cola.

After the movie ended, she let out a satisfied burp. “Young Master, where do you want to go next?”

Li Zhen glared at her unwillingly, suddenly coming up with a brilliant idea. A malicious smile crept onto his lips. “Since you’re here to accompany me, let’s have some fun. Let’s go to a bar together, and I’ll invite some friends.”

He thought Mei Shu would be thrown off guard, after all, it wasn’t quite appropriate to go to a bar with other guys when you have a boyfriend.

But Mei Shu readily agreed, “Sure, why not go to a bar? Maybe having a drink will help you relax, and then my task will be complete!”

“Hopefully.” Li Zhen snorted with a fake smile, leading the way out of the cinema. After making a phone call on his mobile, he drove Mei Shu to a relatively laxly regulated bar.

Li Zhen’s friends were his usual buddies with whom he got along well. Each of them had female companions with them, all looking like just-barely-adult girls.

However, they were heavily made up, dressed revealingly, lacking the cute and lively charm expected at their age. Instead, they exuded a strong perfume scent, as if they were all seasoned players in the dating scene.

Mei Shu calmly sat next to Li Zhen, gently swaying her glass, admiring the beauty of these young women.

Li Zhen leaned over and teased her, “Realized you’re just average-looking? Not as pretty as the ordinary girls, and you don’t knowhow to dress up either.”

Mei Shu glanced at him sideways, a playful smile playing on her lips. “I was thinking these girls should broaden their horizons before looking for boyfriends. Otherwise, randomly picking a man would be a waste.”

“Say that again!” Li Zhen stared at her with an unfriendly expression.

Unfazed, Mei Shu avoided his gaze and smiled mischievously as she surveyed his group of friends. “I heard from Li Zhen that you guys often come to places like this. You must have a good tolerance for alcohol?”

“What? The beauty wants to challenge us?” The guy wearing a brand-name outfit but looking somewhat shady was the first to respond provocatively.

Mei Shu lowered her eyes and smiled. “Sitting here doing nothing is boring. How about we play a game? Losers drink. How about it?”

“Sure!” The guy immediately became interested.

Originally, they thought Mei Shu was a well-behaved girl, but they didn’t expect her to take the initiative to drink with them! This greatly piqued their interest!

Li Zhen suddenly grabbed her wrist, furrowing his brows with a few wrinkles. “Hey, do you really want to drink?”

“Of course.” Mei Shu nonchalantly pulled her wrist back. “We’re at a bar. Shouldn’t we drink? Tea doesn’t seem appropriate here, does it?”
