"Xi Xi, after healing your dad, will there be any reward?" Li Se leaned close to Tang Xi's ear and even kissed it.
Tang Xi's body instantly went weak, nearly collapsing into Li Se's embrace.
Fortunately, Li Se was quick, holding Tang Xi in his arms. His hands were also quite unrestrained.
"Don't be like this, there are people around," Tang Xi said coyly, her face flushed.
Li Se took Tang Xi to the car, and then they became intimate. However, the environment here naturally didn't allow for anything further, so they could only express their affection with kisses and touches.
After Li Se's intimate advances, Tang Xi's pretty face was flushed, her breathing a little uneven. She was a rather sensitive woman, and being touched like that by Li Se made her almost unable to bear it, even letting out some sensitive sounds.
If it weren't for being in the car, Li Se would have truly been unable to resist and would have "resolved" Tang Xi right there and then.
"You're so annoying. Who does this kind of thing in a car?" Tang Xi said with a pout.
Li Se chuckled, "Xi Xi, I didn't do anything."
Tang Xi rolled her eyes. This guy claimed he didn't do anything, yet his hand had already snaked under her skirt. Truly annoying.
It was almost lunchtime, so Li Se took Tang Xi out for a meal.
"Xi Xi?" Just then, a woman's voice was heard. A heavily made-up woman walked towards them.
"Oh my, it really is you. Long time no see. I heard you were going to get engaged to Young Master Ye a while back, but you ran off with someone else. You're quite brave, that's Young Master Ye!"
The woman's voice was sarcastic, and it was clear her relationship with Tang Xi wasn't very good.
Seeing this woman, Tang Xi felt a wave of annoyance. She also brought up the engagement matter and said faintly, "Song Ling, this has nothing to do with you, right?"
"How can it not have anything to do with me? We were best friends back then. Even though some time has passed since we last met, I still care a lot about your affairs," Song Ling said with a smile.
Then she noticed Li Se and looked genuinely surprised. "Xi Xi, could this be the man?"
"Yes!" Tang Xi admitted frankly.
"This, this, this..." Song Ling appeared speechless. "You abandoned Young Master Ye for this kind of loser? Oh dear, Xi Xi, I'm not trying to criticize you, but love can't be eaten as food."
Clearly, in her eyes, Li Se was likely a loser or someone who lived off women.
Often, people judge others based on first impressions. Song Ling was one such person, but she overlooked some details. The fact that Li Se could snatch Tang Xi away from Ye Bowen was enough to prove his capabilities, but Song Ling couldn't see that.
"Song Ling, you don't need to worry about this," Tang Xi really didn't want to deal with Song Ling.
Song Ling giggled, "Xi Xi, since we've met after so long, let's have a meal together. I can introduce my boyfriend to you."
Tang Xi really wanted to refuse, but Song Ling didn't give her the chance, linking her arm and pulling her away.
Tang Xi could only look towards Li Se.
Li Se nodded, appearing indifferent.
Afterward, they met Song Ling's boyfriend, a handsome young man dressed in a suit, clearly from a well-off family.
"Xi Xi, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Jia Hou. The Jia family is also a prominent family in the capital," Song Ling introduced proudly.
She knew Tang Xi was from the Tang family in the capital, but she also knew Tang Xi was not favored in the Tang family and held little status. Moreover, having run off with another man at her engagement banquet with Ye Bowen, her life in the Tang family would likely be even more difficult.
"Brother Hou, let me introduce you. This is Tang Xi, the one who ran off with another man when she was supposed to be engaged to Young Master Ye," Song Ling emphasized the matter of her running off with another man while introducing Tang Xi.
She then briefly introduced Li Se, with no good words spoken, basically categorizing him as a loser.
Li Se wasn't angry. He wouldn't stoop to getting upset with someone like that.
Jia Hou glanced at Li Se with some surprise, but quickly dismissed him with contempt. He then extended his hand towards Tang Xi, appearing gentle and refined. "Miss Tang, hello, I'm Jia Hou."
He extended his hand to Tang Xi, wanting to take advantage of her. This was a great beauty, and being able to touch her hand would be a good thing.
However, just as he extended it, another hand grasped it. It was Li Se, who shook Jia Hou's hand and said with a smile, "My apologies, my woman doesn't like shaking hands with other men."
Jia Hou frowned, feeling somewhat displeased, but he couldn't say much at the moment.
"Since she's Xi Xi's classmate, let's have a meal together if we've met. I have VIP status at this restaurant, and I've booked a 'Di' grade private room." Jia Hou said with a smile.
This restaurant had 'Ren', 'Di', and 'Tian' grade private rooms. Undoubtedly, the 'Tian' grade was the most luxurious, and there was only one 'Tian' grade room in the entire restaurant. Only truly distinguished and influential top figures could book it.
Under normal circumstances, being able to book a 'Di' grade private room meant one was a person of standing, so Jia Hou was showing off, flaunting his capabilities.
This was a 'Di' grade private room, and without a certain level of influence, one couldn't book it.
"Oh, a 'Di' grade private room?" Li Se said with some disdain. "This private room is too trashy. Why didn't you book the 'Tian' grade private room? Couldn't you book it?"
When these words came out, Jia Hou and Song Ling were both stunned, clearly not expecting Li Se to say something like that.
Following that, they both let out cold laughs. This was clearly the talk of someone without any power.
"You're quite amusing. Do you know that the 'Tian' grade private room isn't something anyone can book? There's only one 'Tian' grade private room in the entire restaurant, and only true dignitaries of the capital can book this room. Usually, if you can book a 'Ren' grade private room, it's considered quite impressive," Jia Hou felt it necessary to educate this fellow about the significance of the 'Tian' grade private room.
Song Ling giggled, "Xi Xi, your boyfriend truly knows nothing. To book a 'Di' grade private room, your annual consumption at this restaurant must exceed a million; otherwise, it's impossible to book. As for the 'Tian' grade private room, that requires true power and influence."
Tang Xi remained silent.
Li Se smiled, "So, if you couldn't book the 'Tian' grade private room, it means you aren't dignitaries of the capital?"
Jia Hou was choked by Li Se's words. Damn it, that seemed to make sense. He immediately sneered, "I couldn't book the 'Tian' grade private room. You saying that makes it seem like you can. Why don't you book the 'Tian' grade private room? I'd also like to experience it."
