Hello There, Prideful Chairman - Chapter 53

Chapter 53: If She Isn’t Gorgeous, This Young Master Will Be Displeased

A pale and slender finger gently touched her lips, then slowly rubbed against them.

Gu Nancheng held onto her tightly with his arms. [Nobody can take you away from me.]

The lights were dimly lit in the Qiansheng tavern.

A girl sat in front of a black grand piano…

Behind her, there was a window with huge double curtains, and the tranquil starry night sky served as a backdrop.

The fragrance of blooming flowers spread throughout the night.

By the window, a banner decorated with roses and swords swayed back and forth due to the night breeze.

The moonlight helped cloak Ji Anan in an ambience of mysterious darkness, and her petite body made small movements in harmony with the serene and picturesque scene.

The high-class men in the room started to chatter.

“Why so mysterious? I hear that they found a drop-dead gorgeous beauty. Have you seen her before?”

“No matter how gorgeous she is, aren’t all women the same in bed once the lights are off?” said one man in a flippant tone as he smirked. “Of course, if she isn’t beautiful enough, I’ll be the first one to say so.”

Who would dare to cross his woman and label herself the number one beauty in S City? This was blatant insolence towards him.

…

After the song ended, the lights were suddenly turned back on.

Ji Anan narrowed her long-lashed eyes to see more clearly, while her slender porcelain fingers were still propped on the black and white piano keys as she stared down the stage at the audience.

Under the glistening crystal lights, Ji Anan’s long hair was styled into a bun, and she wore a long white feathered dress with a rounded trail that followed behind her.

Her ivory-skinned, exquisite face was like the purest flower petal, and her black pupils were like the most dazzling stars in the entire galaxy…

With her plump pink lips slightly pursed, she looked as if she had royal blood running through her veins.

Her entire being gave off an air of lofty gracefulness.

When the spotlight shone upon her, the entire tavern fell into a dead silence.

Young Master Mu felt like his heart had been jolted by a spark of electricity, and he exclaimed with astonishment, “Gorgeous… Absolutely gorgeous… Drop-dead gorgeous…”

She was stunned into silence.

He turned around and yelled to the people in the back, “I, the young master, am in an exceptionally good mood today, so all the wine is on me!”

Everyone in the room was noble from a filthy rich family, so who cared about the cost of a little wine? Seeing him trying to get ahead so desperately displeased the others in the room.

…

Through the window in his compartment, a man coldly watched the farce play out, and his fingers gently made circles on his glass cup.

His features were so well-defined that they could have been cut from steel. With his thin lips slightly puckered, his overbearing aura was formidable.

He wore a navy-blue double-breasted cavalry uniform decorated with a golden eagle, and his crossed feet wore horse-riding boots.

As he twisted his ring with his index finger, he stared fixedly at the woman sitting in front of the piano. She had snow-white skin as smooth as that of a newborn baby, and her dark lashes were long and curled…

Her feathered dress swept the floor, and from the crane of her neck to the tip of her finger, the perfect contours of her body carried an air of elegance.

Her beauty was like a bubble that could be popped easily, effortless and carefree.

Yet at the same time, she was also like a petal in the night, her snow-white color contrasting with the darkness of the night.

Ji Anan’s face overlapped with the one in his memory.

…

Ji Anan stood up from the piano, bowed politely to the audience, and picked up the hem of her dress. She was about to leave when Mu Shao held out his hand to block her exit.

“Get lost.”

“Hahaha… You’re telling me to get lost? You dare to tell me to get lost? There’s this sort of system in which the more you ignore me, the more I bully and harass you!” Mu Shao snickered dirtily and started making boxing gestures as he jumped around in front of her in an attempt to show how high and mighty he was.

In Ji Anan’s eyes, he seemed like a monkey jumping back and forth.

A couple of his fellow good-for-nothing buddies came closer. One of them piped in, “Mu Shao, you already have Yao Er.”

“What do you guys know about anything? Just like the masters of the past had dozens of concubines, I want all the women as well.”

Realizing that she couldn’t escape them, Ji Anan took out her phone to make a call. “This is the Qiansheng Tavern. There are a couple of people trying to sell fruits here, and we can’t make them leave.”
