Chapter 697 Charm

This matter, Chen Xiao had not asked, but Li Ziqing could not truly pretend not to know.

After all, as a woman, how did she manage to manipulate so many men in the palm of her hand?

This was not something that could be thought about in detail. If one thought about it carefully, it was inevitable that suspicion would arise.

"Thank you for not asking me anything for so long."

Li Ziqing said with sincere gratitude. Chen Xiao did not ask, but it did not mean he did not want to know. It was just that he respected her.

"It's alright, you don't need to thank me, because I know you will tell me sooner or later."

Chen Xiao said calmly.

From the day he chose Li Ziqing, he knew that this woman was different from other women.

She was also a complete person, not an appendage to anyone.

Even if that person was himself.

"I've already arranged a meeting place with my friend, let's go there first."

After speaking, Li Ziqing hailed a car and gave the name of a cafe.

Yi Xin Cafe.

This was their destination. When they arrived, Li Ziqing's friend had not yet arrived.

They sat down and ordered two cups of coffee. Before the waiter could bring them, a woman of ultimate beauty walked into the cafe.

The woman's beautiful eyes darted around, and when she spotted Li Ziqing, she walked over with a smile.

Li Ziqing's friends were indeed all great beauties!

Chen Xiao thought to himself.

This woman gave off an indescribable aura. At first glance, one could feel her captivating beauty, which was beyond compare.

Upon closer inspection, her features were exquisite, her figure graceful, dignified, and elegant.

Yet, beneath this dignified and elegant demeanor, there was an extreme allure. Every inch of her body exuded charm.

She wore a short skirt, revealing a expanse of fair skin on her chest, while the hem hugged her voluptuous hips, showcasing her proud figure.

And after a few more glances, one could feel a raw sensuality emanating from her bones, sparking the imagination.

This was innate seductive charm!

Especially when their eyes met, her gaze was filled with shyness, yet burning with passion. Even Chen Xiao was captivated.

"What are you thinking? Do you think she must be very slutty and wild in bed?"

Just as Chen Xiao was lost in his thoughts, Li Ziqing's gentle and soft voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"Cough, cough, how could I possibly think of such things? This is your friend!"

Chen Xiao coughed to cover his embarrassment and said with feigned composure.

Li Ziqing was not angry at all. Instead, she teased, "Or, would you like to take a closer look?"

Chen Xiao was slightly stunned, and then his expression changed slightly: "Your friend... she's not human?"

Li Ziqing smiled mysteriously, neither confirming nor denying. At this moment, the woman had already walked up to Li Ziqing.

She greeted him as if meeting an old friend, "Master, you're here."

Master???!!!

Suddenly, Chen Xiao seemed to understand something.

"Sit down."

Li Ziqing invited the beauty to sit down and introduced her to Chen Xiao, "Husband, this is Susu."

"Greetings, Male Master. Susu pays her respects."

Susu smiled sweetly at Chen Xiao and greeted him.

The master's husband would naturally be the male master. Although the title sounded a bit strange, Chen Xiao accepted it readily.

Moreover, Chen Xiao no longer felt that way about Susu.

At least, he wouldn't imagine Susu moaning in bed...

Because he had already discovered that this Susu was actually a paper figure.

The true identity of this Susu was a Mei.

This was something Chen Xiao had completely confirmed when she called Li Ziqing "Master."

Mei were refined from the souls of women and were most adept at using beauty to confuse the minds of men.

"Master, you must have something to instruct me to call Susu."

Susu asked.

Li Ziqing said, "I want to meet Boss Tang. Do you have a way?"

"Boss Tang? Tang Fei?"

After seeing Li Ziqing nod, Susu said, "Boss Tang is hosting a banquet tomorrow. Susu has received an invitation, and Master can attend with Susu then."

"Send me the time and place, and the Male Master must also attend."

Li Ziqing said.

"Yes, Master."

Susu nodded respectfully.

"Alright, there's nothing else. You can go now."

Li Ziqing waved her hand.

"Goodbye, Master. See you tomorrow, Male Master."

Susu said respectfully, then got up and left.

Her departing figure swayed, as alluring as when she arrived.

But for Chen Xiao, it had completely lost its effect.

At this moment, the waiter brought the coffee. Li Ziqing stirred her coffee with a small spoon and said in a low voice, "The one who went to charm those three back then was actually her."

"However, she did it using my appearance."

"Husband, you must have realized by now that she is a Mei. Ordinary men cannot resist her charm, which is why those three men would risk their lives for her."

"If I had gone to seduce them myself, the effect would not have been this good."

Li Ziqing smiled self-deprecatingly, and this was her explanation to Chen Xiao.

As if to prove that what she said was true, Li Ziqing took out something else from her bag and showed it to Chen Xiao.

It was a small paper figure, palm-sized, with Susu's name written on it, along with her birth date and time.

"This is Susu's natal charm."

Chen Xiao knew that Li Ziqing controlled Susu by controlling this natal charm.

If Susu did not obey her, she could simply burn this natal charm, and Susu would immediately vanish into thin air.

"When I left the Imperial City back then, I left Susu behind to change her identity and develop slowly in the Imperial City."

"She did not disappoint. Now she is a famous socialite in the Imperial City, and many prominent figures that ordinary people have heard of are her honored guests."

Chen Xiao thought to himself, more like guests in bed...

"How did you obtain this Mei?"

Chen Xiao asked the question that was on his mind.

"When I was sixteen, a Taoist nun gave her to me. She said she was an old friend of my mother's and gave Susu to me, along with instructions on how to control her. She said that if I wanted to avenge my parents, I would definitely be able to use this Mei!"

"However, she did not tell me her dharma name, and we only met once. After that, I never saw her again."

Li Ziqing told her experiences completely, without any concealment.

"So that's how it is."

Chen Xiao nodded slightly and then tentatively said, "Wife, have you ever considered this possibility?"

"What?"

"Have you ever thought that the Taoist nun you met back then might have been Master Wucan!"
