Chapter 316

He stared unblinkingly, not even fluttering his eyelids.

It seemed like a battle of aura.

A smile appeared on Qin Baihui's face as she boldly continued to move closer.

Just a hair's breadth away.

Their noses were about to touch.

Their eyes met.

There was no fierce collision or sparks as one might have imagined.

They were both looking at the strange person before them.

In Ning Chen's eyes lay a calmness like mountain springs and lakes.

While in Qin Baihui's eyes burned a heat like ocean waves and tides.

It was as if an eagle had spotted its prey, finding it quite interesting.

The shop owner held his fingers to his lips and whistled.

This was the first time since he had known Qin Baihui.

That he had seen her greet a stranger.

And to start with such a bold move.

"Ahaha! Truly Qin Baihui! The beach-viewing wonder woman, facing the silent Mr. Stranger!" the shop owner clapped and said.

However.

This scene greatly amused Zhang Xiaonian, a child so young and inexperienced.

She was still just a child!

Zhang Xiaonian's face quickly flushed with red, and her gaze toward Qin Baihui held a hint of inexplicable annoyance and anger.

She puffed her cheeks, hands on her hips, and shouted at Qin Baihui: "Hey! Old woman! What are you doing to my big brother!"

Qin Baihui acted as if she hadn't heard, continuing to lock eyes with Ning Chen.

Her hot breath puffed against Ning Chen's face.

While Ning Chen's breathing remained extremely steady.

This meant.

Ning Chen felt not a shred of nervousness, utterly unperturbed.

It was as if he had experienced so much that such a thing was merely trivial.

Zhang Xiaonian grew agitated; she jumped off her stool and moved to where Qin Baihui could see her.

She spoke in a furious tone: "I'm talking to you! Old woman! Stay away from my big brother!"

Seeing that Ning Chen remained completely unmoved, Qin Baihui realized this approach would yield no results.

So.

She shifted her gaze to Zhang Xiaonian, leaned her body back in a feigned display of elegance, moved away from Ning Chen's face, covered her mouth, and exclaimed in surprise: "Where did this little girl come from! So cute!"

As she spoke.

Qin Baihui scooped Zhang Xiaonian up in her arms.

The frail Zhang Xiaonian now resembled a kitten.

Unable to escape the deathly embrace of a cat lover.

"Let me go! Let me go!" she struggled, yet could not break free no matter how hard she tried.

She could not understand why this woman possessed such immense strength.

Is this the power of an adult!

Indeed! For a child, this was perhaps a bit too much!

Zhang Xiaonian's patience with the woman before her had reached its limit.

Qin Baihui acted as if she hadn't heard, hugging her own way.

Until...

"Let him go." Ning Chen looked at Qin Baihui, his eyes devoid of any emotion.

Seeing Ning Chen's cold gaze, Qin Baihui finally released Zhang Xiaonia.

The current Qin Baihui.

Was extremely curious about Ning Chen.

She wondered why this man remained completely unmoved by her.

To date.

No man had ever stood before her without being moved, without falling for her.

This greatly piqued Qin Baihui's curiosity.

It was like someone accustomed to mountains and rivers suddenly encountering towering, crashing waves.

"Let us get to know each other." Qin Baihui sat back down, paying no attention whatsoever to Zhang Xiaonian.

She extended her hand toward Ning Chen: "My name is Qin Baihui, from Haicheng."

Ning Chen looked at Qin Baihui, did not shake her hand, and after a long silence replied: "My name is Mr. Silent."

Qin Baihui burst into laughter; she was amused by this humorous man.

As for why he was called "Mr. Silent".

It was a nickname given to him by the shop owner.

Qin Baihui withdrew her hand, paying no mind to Ning Chen's coldness.

No.

Or rather.

For Qin Baihui, the fact that Ning Chen could introduce himself this way was enough.

From her perspective.

Ning Chen was a mysterious handsome man with a story.

And he spoke little.

The fact that he could introduce himself to her meant that the two could get to know each other.

Qin Baihui smiled and said to Ning Chen, "May I ask, Mr. Doesn't Like to Talk, are you interested in being my boyfriend?"

This remark caused an uproar in the live broadcast room.

【Holy crap! Did I hear that right? This beauty wants to date Brother Shiguang right off the bat?】

【Are girls these days this bold? Wanting to get together immediately; even a blind date isn't this fast!】

【No! No! Brother Shiguang is mine! The person who pairs up with Brother Shiguang must be me!】

【Brother Shiguang! You can't agree, Brother Shiguang! We agreed to stay single for life!】

【Why can't I run into someone like this? Giving herself away right off the bat?】

【Brother Shiguang has great fortune! Beautiful women follow him wherever he goes!】

【This girl reminds me of that someone from before!】

【Brothers, I'm truly envious!】

214. (3/5) My private jet, how about it?

Hearing the words of the woman before him named Qin Baihui.

Saying she wanted to engage in a romantic relationship between a man and a woman.

But Ning Chen didn't even answer.

He simply ignored her.

Qin Baihui was also stunned; even she hadn't expected this.

That Mr. Doesn't Like to Talk would treat her this way.

She also felt in her heart that Mr. Doesn't Like to Talk would refuse.

But she hadn't expected him to simply ignore her.

Could it be.

That I'm not good-looking!

Or that my figure isn't good!

Or that my personality doesn't suit his taste?
