Chapter 229: Take Flight

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Xie Wanwan was drunk.

So drunk she could not tell east from west, totally oblivious.

She kept on mumbling, refusing to let go of his hand as she created a fuss.

Tang Yuanchu felt so powerless against her drunken state.

She had asked to treat him to a drink. In the end, he did not even take a sip, but she drank herself silly. He was also the one who had to foot the bill.

Not only that, he had to help her to the car and then send her back to the hotel…

Tang Yuanchu could not understand why he agreed to go drinking with her.

What exactly did he want from her?

…

What exactly did he want!?

In the dark night, inside the dim nightclub, his surging desire for her felt like a sharp knife that tore open his body.

His heart trembled and his back was covered with cold sweat.

It’s desire.

He now understood.

…

“You want to leave now? Let’s drink some more! It’s still early.”

Xie Wanwan was hanging on him for support as she rambled on. She was wearing high heels, staggering about. She could not even stand properly, let alone walk by herself.

Tang Yuanchu ignored her and grabbed her along as though he was an eagle holding a chick.

Xie Wanwan was too drunk. As she was staggering, she collided into a girl at the entrance.

The girl was chatting happily with her group of friends. That sudden, unexpected collision made her let out a shrill scream.

“Hey! Do you not have eyes—”

She had not finished saying her words when she turned around and saw Tang Yuanchu.

Both of them were shocked for a moment.

What the heck? It was his ex-girlfriend.

This is problematic! Tang Yuanchu thought inside his mind and instantly helped Xie Wanwan walk as he wanted to get away as fast as possible.

However, his ex-girlfriend called his name. “Tang Yuanchu?”

Tang Yuanchu did not respond. He continued to walk, but Xie Wanwan pulled his arm.

“Hey! Tang Monk, that, that girl is calling you?”

Tang Yuanchu scoffed. “…”

His ex-girlfriend had called him up several times last month. That was after he had become a popular online celebrity. However, Tang Yuanchu had treated her rather coldly. Back when they broke up, his ex-girlfriend knew she was in the wrong, so the chances of them patching up and getting back together were hopeless. Now that she saw him holding a woman at the waist, she couldn’t stop herself from feeling enraged about it.

“Why? Pretending you don’t know me?”

Tang Yuanchu asked calmly after taking a breath, “What do you want?”

His ex-girlfriend looked at him with an annoyed expression. “You don’t apologize when you knocked onto someone?”

Tang Yuanchu grunted with a troubled face. “My apologies!”

It was originally a trivial matter. He did not see the need to argue with people outside the nightclub.

However, his apology did not gain understanding from his ex-girlfriend but triggered some unknown emotions in her.

She walked over to them and her gaze fell on the hand Tang Yuanchu had placed on Xie Wanwan’s waist. Hmph! She gave a snort and pointed at Xie Wanwan.

“She’s the one who knocked onto me, let her apologize!”

“What?!” It was true Xie Wanwan was drunk and her head was even hanging about weakly. However, when she heard those words, she brushed her fringe aside and gave her a cold glance. “Girl, you’re being petulant.”

Xie Wanwan was someone who took great care to maintain her own image in public. She would never pick a fight with others if she was not drunk.

Well, she was now drunk and behaved totally like a maniac!

She flicked her hair, and at that instant, the anger she had accumulated by tolerating and enduring the events in her daily life was about to dump on Tang Yuanchu’s ex-girlfriend.

“I don’t want to apologize. What do you want?”

“… Don’t stir up trouble!” Tang Yuanchu spoke to her in a low voice. He took her by the waist and tried to drag her away from the impending catfight.

Nevertheless, he had not expected this woman to be so powerful, he totally couldn’t pull her back at all. It was also unfortunate his ex-girlfriend’s friends also refused to give in as they had the upper hand of more people. They started a commotion by hurling verbal abuse at the entrance of Grand Orchid Pavilion.

After Xie Wanwan shot to her fame, she had been treated like a princess and was held on a pedestal by many. When did she ever suffer such treatment?

Although she was gentle and amiable in front of people, her temperament was, in fact, extremely arrogant and headstrong. It was always others who gave in to her and accede to her demands. How would she be able to tolerate others pointing at her nose, hurling verbal abuse at her?

“D*rn! Who are you scolding?”

Just like a guy, she rolled her sleeves and wanted to fight!

“…”

Things had come to this state. Tang Yuanchu thought it was unwise if he were to show his police officer badge.

It looked as if a fight would break out between them and Xie Wanwan any moment. Tang Yuanchu felt he was put in a spot. He gritted his teeth, picked up Xie Wanwan, put her on his shoulder, and fled the scene.

“… What the heck! Let go of me.”

Xie Wanwan was kicking and hitting him.

As she struggled, she also bit him.

Tang Yuanchu endured the pain and continued walking.

The friends of the ex-girlfriend did not want to end the matter like this and wanted to chase. Nonetheless, the security officers of the Grand Orchid Pavilion had arrived.

The one who was walking right in front of the security officers was Huang He.

He had hurried to come to handle this matter. He furrowed his eyebrows when he saw Tang Yuanchu, who was already quite far away from them.

The ex-girlfriend was obviously fuming as she was still complaining about it.

At this moment, the girl beside her suddenly muttered softly.

“Yu’er, that woman earlier seemed to look a little like Xie Wanwan?”

The ex-girlfriend was startled by her friend’s remark and stared at her.

The friend nodded her head, her eyes were flashing as she had caught a piece of hot gossip.

“I really think it’s Xie Wanwan. Wow! This is too shocking! How did she get involved with your ex-boyfriend?”

“Did you take pictures?”

“… I took a video!”

…

For a long time consequently, Tang Yuanchu had been brooding over the way he handled the matter by leaving just like that. He felt that the way he handled the matter was too unmanly.

However, at that moment, he could think of no better way besides leaving the scene.

“I didn’t expect that you’re quite heavy.”

Tang Yuanchu remarked, puffing a sigh as he ‘threw’ Xie Wanwan on the front passenger seat, swinging his arms to relax his muscles.

Xie Wanwan gave a burp, she was still peeved over the incident.

“Nah… if you don’t know how to talk, just shut your bleeping mouth up. I’m heavy? I have a perfect figure… Just look, I show you…”

As she said so, she started to pull her clothes.

“…”

Tang Yuanchu swept a glance at her sexy dress and immediately shut his lips.

Tang Yuanchu loosened his collar. He thought in order to prevent Xie Wanwan from misbehaving like the other night, he had to make sure she could not move around easily. Hence, he fastened her seat belt securely.

That made Xie Wanwan uncomfortable as she glared at him and kept tugging the safety belt.

“Get this off me… I haven’t settled my scores with you yet…”

“Hur! Let’s talk about it after you clear your head… I also have scores to settle with you!”

“Sure! Get this off me. We’ll settle our scores with each other…”

Tang Yuanchu rolled his eyes and started the car. “I’ll send you back now.”

“No, no!” Xie Wanwan struggled in her seat before she changed her approach. “You get this off me, I can let you give me a kiss… Alright?”

“…” Tang Yuanchu ignored her.

Xie Wanwan started to stroke his arms. “Tell me, are you fine with it?”

Tang Yuanchu’s arm quivered. He didn’t dare to continue driving and stopped directly by the roadside. “I asked you not to touch me.”

Xie Wanwan pouted and rolled her eyes. “Idiot… You think I can’t do it by myself…”

She mumbled to herself as she lowered her head to search for the safety belt latch and managed to free herself. The moment she was done, she flung toward Tang Yuanchu and hugged his arm. “Tell me…” she questioned him with a furious look, “why didn’t you allow me… to teach her a lesson?”

“Her? Who?” Tang Yuanchu pretended to be ignorant.

“The one who called your name…”

“… It’s because you can’t win.”

“Nonsense!” After Xie Wanwan retorted him, her eyes rolled in thought and she started to laugh. “Ah, is it because… she’s the smart girl we talked about earlier?”

“Xie Wanwan, I’m warning you…”

“Tch!” Xie Wanwan smiled ambiguously. “You’re angry… is it because I’m spot on? It’s really her? You… why do you want to live like this? You’re being jilted, yet you’re acting pitiable before her…”

“Who’s acting pitiable?”

“The one who took flight is the one who’s acting pitiable!”

“I don’t want to talk to you.”

“Hm… okay.” Xie Wanwan smiled flirtatiously as her hand slipped softly down his arm. She was looking at him in an obedient manner with her heavy but charming looking makeup and dress that accentuated her curves. “Don’t want to talk? Let’s do it then…”
