Chapter 915: What do you want to borrow?
"What's that kid's background?"
"He dares to snatch a woman Xiao Shen has taken a fancy to? Does he not want to live?"
"Look at Xiao Shen's reaction, why does it look like he wants to let the matter rest?"
Others in the bar didn't know what Xu Tian's status was, but the high-level members of the Azure Wolf Hall at the booth wouldn't misidentify their own leader.
The moment Xu Tian turned around, many high-level members sobered up.
The few high-level members who had just been cheering for Xiao Shen shrunk into the corner like quails, trying to lower their presence.
Xu Tian originally hadn't noticed the high-level members of the Azure Wolf Hall sitting at the booth, but just as he was about to leave, his peripheral vision saw Zhong Yu, who was gossiping with a look of curiosity, and added to that, there were a few familiar faces among the high-level members. Even if he were slower, he should have known that these people were high-level members of the Azure Wolf Hall.
Having met his subordinates in a bar, he couldn't just walk away, so Xu Tian walked to the side of the booth.
"My Lord... why do you have time to come out for entertainment today..."
A high-level member stood up, nodding and bowing, wanting to give up his seat to Xu Tian.
"Don't be nervous. I still have things to do, so I won't chat with you."
After saying that, he walked toward the double booth area inside with the Thorn Emperor.
Zeng Rou received the Thorn Emperor's order not to follow, so she could only sit at the bar, staring at Xu Tian's direction like a tiger.
The high-level members of the Azure Wolf Hall felt much more relaxed when they saw Xu Tian didn't stay at their table.
"Phew... fortunately, Wolf King Lord wasn't angry this time. That really scared me to death just now..."
"What are you guys? I'm the one who was scared to death, okay?" Xiao Shen said with a mournful face, downing a full glass of vodka in one breath. "I feel like I could lose ten years of my life..."
He actually set his sights on the boss's woman; he really deserved to die.
"Pfft, with your guts, do you know who the person you took a fancy to is? If you knew, you'd probably be scared to death..."
"Who is that person?" Xiao Shen said dismissively. "The daughter of a gang boss, or the daughter of some ancient family?"
"Neither." Zhong Yu shook her head.
"Then who is it?" Zhong Yu's words aroused Xiao Shen's curiosity.
Even if he died, he couldn't die without knowing why.
"The Thorn Emperor." Zhong Yu saw his silly look and had no interest in playing coy anymore.
"The Thorn Emperor? I thought it was someone else..." Xiao Shen had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly realized something was wrong and hurriedly turned to ask, "Who did you say? The Thorn Emperor? Which Thorn Emperor?"
"How many Thorn Emperors are there on Wuji Island?" Zhong Yu rolled her eyes.
"Holy crap! It's really her?" Xiao Shen was so scared he couldn't sit still and fell directly to the ground. "That ice beauty is actually the Thorn Emperor? This can't be, right? Why would she come to this kind of place?"
Rumor had it that the Thorn Emperor never appeared easily and was cold and aloof, not eating the food of mortals. Why would she come to a place like a bar, a mixed bag of people and entertainment!
"What's impossible about it?" Zhong Yu grabbed a handful of melon seeds leisurely. "I've been to the Thorn's territory with Brother Yi before, and I've seen her more than once. The woman you tried to hook up with just now is the Thorn Emperor, no doubt about it..."
"Then... then what's going on with the boss?" Xiao Shen was dumbfounded. "He invited the Thorn Emperor to the bar for a date... no... this is impossible..."
"What are you panicking for? Maybe they're discussing serious business?" Zhong Yu said with a smile.
"Your boss discusses serious business in a bar? And in a double booth?" Xiao Shen had an expression of looking at an idiot. "Do you really take me for an idiot?"
Just as Xiao Shen was doubting his life, the Thorn Emperor spoke first and said to Xu Tian, who was sitting opposite her.
"What do you want with me?"
"Can't I invite you if there's nothing?" Xu Tian smiled faintly. "I just missed you."
Thorn Emperor:...
"If there's nothing else, then I'm leaving." After saying that, the woman made a move to stand up.
"Don't be in such a hurry. I invited you here naturally because there is serious business." Xu Tian said hurriedly.
"What serious business?" The Thorn Emperor's voice was very cold, as if no one could make her open her heart.
"Look at me." Xu Tian's expression suddenly became serious, and his eyes stared unblinkingly at the woman sitting opposite him.
The Thorn Emperor was slightly startled, as if she hadn't expected Xu Tian to be so serious, and for a moment didn't know how to react.
The two stared at each other, neither speaking again.
The Thorn Emperor saw her own shadow in the man's clear eyes, and in the end, she turned her head away somewhat unnaturally.
"What exactly do you want?"
"Look at me, do you have nothing you want to say to me?" Xu Tian asked back.
Thorn Emperor:...
"If there's nothing, I'm leaving."
She just realized that this person probably really had nothing urgent to do, but was just trying to pester her.
As the Thorn Emperor stood up, Xu Tian also stood up.
He was faster and directly blocked her path.
"Ding Yi, don't go too far!" Zeng Rou saw Xu Tian still pestering her and was furious.
"Emperor Lord, why don't you believe that I really have something to do when I look for you?" Xu Tian lowered his eyes slightly, the broken hair on his forehead blocking his eyes, and coupled with his low voice, it actually had a bit of a lonely and sad taste.
A flash of panic flickered in the Thorn Emperor's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by her habitual coldness.
"If you have something to say, say it quickly." She faced Xu Tian with a tough attitude, as if she had built a copper wall and iron fortress in front of him.
"I want to borrow something from you." Xu Tian approached the woman in the black dress in front of him, slowly leaning in. The distance between the two was only ten centimeters, a distance within reach. He could even smell the cold pine snow scent on her hair.
His gaze moved down slightly, looking at the woman's fair and elegant neck. Her long hair was coiled high, hidden in the black veil hat, leaving only a few strands of broken hair.
Now was not the time to be distracted. Xu Tian kept reminding himself of the purpose of inviting the woman out this time.
"What do you want to borrow?" The woman seemed not to have expected Xu Tian to say this. "Are you short of money recently?"
"Heh..." Xu Tian chuckled and leaned in a little closer, his gaze falling on the broken hair on the woman's neck. "How could I borrow money from you..."
"Then what do you want to borrow?" The woman's breathing was disrupted for half a beat, and she even worried that the man in front of her would hear her wild heartbeat.
"Can you lend me your heart?" Xu Tian said this with an extremely serious tone, without the slightest hint of teasing. He stared intently at the woman in front of him, as if he wanted to firmly carve every reaction of hers into his heart.
Tang Bingyan's heartbeat missed half a beat, and she was actually a bit at a loss.
But even so, her instinctive vigilance made her subconsciously take a step back when Xu Tian reached out.
Xu Tian stared at the broken hair on the woman's neck with some regret and sighed lightly. ===== CHAPTER 916 =====
