159: Magma bees

Magma bees

When Mo Qiang finished speaking, she turned around and left without looking back causing Shao Hui to be stumped. He thought that she would stick close to him and act like a bother given that he was here to meet Jiang Zu but she left him behind just like that?  2

" Is she really here to have fun?" Shao Hui couldn't be blamed for not trusting Mo Qiang, her past actions had such a loud fame that it was truly impossible for him to trust Mo Qiang's words. Though he was confused, he did not think much about it, since Mo Qiang had already said that she was not going to stay close to him then he might as well enjoy this get-together that Jiang Zu had arranged for him and his friends.

Shao Hui let out a puff of breath and then shook his head before taking a quick look at his hair and make-up in the monitor's camera before he headed inside the bar which was booming with noise. As soon as he stepped inside, he noticed the crowd which was bouncing along with the music which was playing inside the bar. 

The crowd was filled with energy as the women and mers swayed along with the music, they seemed to be having the time of their life but Shao Hui's fingers which were clutching his wallet clenched lightly. 

And his expression changed swiftly as he realised that the song which was being played belonged to his half-brother Shao Yan. 

Though the people who were dancing along to this rhythm were unaware of the depths of the lyrics which were being sung, Shao Hui knew that this song was the one which his half-brother wrote after trapping him in a room for a week without any food or solution. 

The song might be speaking about the desperation of love and anguish but Shao Hui knew very well that each word which was coming out of the speakers was actually retelling his sorry state in which his brother found him after a week. 

" Ah Hui! You are here?" A soft voice called out to Shao Hui who snapped out of his daze and turned to look at Jiang Zu who was walking towards him with two drinking glasses in his hands as he smiled at Shao Hui and then said, " I thought that you were not going to arrive, thank goodness you came or else I would have lost the bet with Han Han." 

As he spoke he turned to look at a young woman who was walking behind him, the woman was dressed in a light beige dress with a small cut at the upper half of her bosom and her hair which was cut in a blunt cut was styled carefully making her look exceptionally pretty. 

" You don't have to blame me like this," Chen Han poked Jiang Zu in his arm as she turned to look at Shao Hui and smiled, "It's Ah Hui's fault that he arrived late" After a pause she added, "What delayed you?"

Shao Hui felt a bit awkward, he did not know why but for some reason, he felt like Chen Han was blaming him but that shouldn't be the case. Even though he was late, he was only late by a few minutes, it was not to the point where he should be scolded by anyone. 

Maybe he was thinking too much. 

" I had something to do at home," answered Shao Hui as he shook off the weird feeling that he was getting after Chen Han was done speaking to him. 

Chen Han, who was trying to make things difficult for Shao Hui snorted in her heart upon hearing his response, as to why she was making things difficult for him. 

Jiang Zu had told her many times that Shao Hui did not take him seriously and often treated him unkindly, he even told her that Shao Hui's wife had once tried to take advantage of him but instead of supporting him, Shao Hui had asked him to drop the matter and not make a fuss. 

Though Shao Hui's actions caused Jiang Zu's heart to break, the two of them had been friends for so long, how can an incident like this break their friendship? Because of this Jiang Zu was willing to forgive and forget everything.

In Chen Han's eyes, Shao Hui was shameless to the extreme. Even though Jiang Zu was big-hearted and was willing to forgive him, he should have at least learned some tact, how can he simply come to this get-together just because Jiang Zu invited him? Jiang Zu was willing to invite him because he was big-hearted but what was Shao Hui doing by accepting the invitation?

Though she was dissatisfied, Chen Han did not say anything. She simply rolled her eyes and smiled at Shao Hui before saying lightly, " Oh yes, I forgot that your family has been exiled now, hasn't it? Surely, without any servant robots you have to do the housework?" 

This time even though Shao Hui did not wish to read too much into the situation, he seemed to have realised that Chen Han was deliberately targeting him. A frown appeared on his face as he asked in a low voice, " Chen Han, I don't think I have done anything to offend you right? So why are you targeting me?" 

Unlike Jiang Zu who was soft-spoken and never faced anyone head-on, Shao Hui was different. He was straightforward and did not beat around the bush, as long as someone upsets him, he will simply question them directly. 

When Chen Han heard Shao Hui's question she was stunned, she did not expect Shao Hui to speak in such a manner, was he not afraid of falling out with her?

Jiang Zu on the other hand panicked, he called Shao Hui here because he heard from Shao Yan that Shao Hui had somehow managed to jump into the imperial star entertainment, he did not know how this little hussy was able to do something that he couldn't but Jiang Zu who wished to jump ships knew that he could not offend Shao Hui at this moment.
