chapter 9 Put away your saliva,
"Wait, are you saying, baby, you're really married?"
Bar.
Harper Murong's eyes widened, looking at Olivia Xia elegantly sipping wine. She swallowed, "The major event of life that I haven't resolved for so many years in the country, you settled it in one day after returning?"
Olivia Xia threw her marriage certificate at her, "Could it be fake?"
"Holy cow!" Harper Murong took the red booklet, slightly hot to touch. She tossed it a couple of times before opening it, "Oh my, this man is really top-notch, haha. I was wondering, how could our sweetheart marry so quickly? What kind of luck is this?"
"Don't tell me you've only known him for one day. You've actually seen through Steven Lu's true nature, right? Is this man your true love these past few years?!"
Harper Murong stared at the photo on the marriage certificate, her face lovestruck, almost wanting to lick the screen.
Olivia Xia snatched the marriage certificate back and put it in her bag, "Keep your saliva to yourself, it's mine!"
"Pfft!" Harper Murong laughed, looking at Olivia Xia, "You've already got the certificate, how could I snatch him away?"
Olivia Xia tossed a peanut into her mouth, "Wanna try?"
"Stop joking! I'm not lacking in suitors." Harper Murong waved her hand, picked up her glass, clinked it with Olivia Xia's, and said, "But, I always feel that this man looks familiar, like I've seen him
somewhere."
Olivia Xia shrugged. He worked at the First Hotel, so it wouldn't be strange if Harper Murong had seen him there if she'd been to that hotel.
Harper Murong sighed lightly, "To be honest, I've always seen Steven Lu and Emma Xia together over the years. But he always used you as a shield, so I never dared to tell you. I didn't expect them to be this disgusting."
"Don't mention those disgusting people. Let's drink." Olivia Xia took another big gulp, her fair and delicate face turning a shade of pink.
"Tell me about your husband. How did you meet, what does he do, and why did you suddenly want to get married?" Harper Murong has grown up with Olivia Xia since childhood, and the two share everything.
"Thanks to Emma Xia." Olivia Xia raised an eyebrow and smiled, "What he does doesn't matter. He's willing to marry, and I'm willing to be married. Everything is simple."
As for the future, let nature take its course.
The once passionate man, who made vows of love to her, could be with her sister after she went abroad. What more could she expect from men?
"Cheers!" Harper Murong had a lot to say, but seeing Olivia Xia's state, she held back.
At this time, all she could do was drink with her.
After the two had almost finished drinking, they helped each other out, stumbling as they went.
However, before they reached the door, someone bumped into them, and the two almost fell to the ground.
Barely steadying themselves, they saw the man giving them a lecherous look.
"Sorry, sorry. Did I hurt you two?" The man was in his early forties, his hair slick and shiny, his face oily, and he was eagerly stepping forward to help Olivia Xia and Harper Murong.
"It's fine." Olivia Xia straightened up, keeping herself alert, and pulled Harper Murong aside, watching the man warily.
The man licked his lips, his eyes glued to Olivia Xia, as if he wanted to pounce on her.
Olivia Xia felt disgusted and walked away with Harper Murong.
But the man persisted and followed, blocking their way.
"Please don't go, ladies. I offended you earlier, and I feel guilty. How about I invite you for a drink as an apology?"
"No need." Olivia Xia declined firmly and quickened her pace.
The man persisted, grabbing Olivia Xia's sleeve, "Where are you going so late? Let me take you home?"
Impatient, Olivia Xia pushed him away. The man stumbled and hit a nearby pillar.
Immediately, he glared angrily at Olivia Xia, "You dare to attack me?"
"Do you know who I am?" The man shouted, "I'll tell you, the owner here is my uncle. You're done for."
He gestured, and immediately two large security guards approached Olivia Xia and Harper Murong.
Harper Murong, quite drunk, pulled Olivia Xia's hand, speaking nonsensically, "Baby, are they attracted to me? Why does the way they're approaching me seem off?"
Olivia Xia twitched the corner of her mouth, "Is this girl's brain damaged by alcohol?"
"Be good and sit down for a while. I'll help you test these suitors first." C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Harper Murong nodded, clutching Olivia Xia's hand, "Alright, but be gentle with them, hehe."
Olivia Xia: ...
"Miss, just cooperate and it'll be easier for you," one of the bodyguards said, sizing up Olivia Xia's petite frame with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
"Just the two of you?"
Olivia Xia scoffed, quickly stepping forward. Her petite figure darted around them, and in a few seconds, she had both of the brawny guards down on the ground.
The man hadn't expected Olivia Xia to be so skilled. He stepped back, his face a shade darker, "Alright, let's see how many you can take on."
With a wave of his hand, six or seven more men emerged, surrounding Olivia Xia and Harper Murong.
Harper Murong, still tipsy, grinned, "Why do these suitors keep getting uglier and uglier?"
Olivia Xia chuckled, "Yeah, too ugly. I'll get rid of them for you."
With that said, Olivia Xia casually rolled up her sleeves, preparing to give her legs a good stretch.
"Master Xavier, rest assured, everything you've entrusted to me will be properly arranged without any issues."
"Be careful with the steps. Our security management in this area is top-notch. Nothing untoward will happen here. Even if the Young Master of Si comes, he won't dare to cause trouble."
At the entrance of the bar, the middle-aged bar manager, Fay Zhao, stood next to a tall man, reporting enthusiastically.
"What's happening over there?" The man suddenly interrupted.
Fay Zhao looked over and was surprised. Someone was causing trouble under his watch?
Before he could investigate, the man beside Olivia Xia saw Fay Zhao and eagerly waved at him, "Bro, Fay, perfect timing! There are two gorgeous girls here, spicy and full of flavor. I'll have someone send them to your room later."
Xavier Si's sharp eyes met Olivia Xia's through the crowd.
"Gorgeous girls?" Xavier Si tilted his head, a mischievous smile on his enchanting face.
