Chapter 161 - VIP (1/2)

Xiong Zhi took a deep breath. She did not let any emotion came out of her face. She knew he will come. But it was still too surprising to be seated in the same table with him.

Xiong Zhi maintained her cold face.

”Old Xiong! Your white hair grew a lot!” Old Guan greeted Old Xiong happily.

”Your wrinkles grew a lot.” Old Xiong greeted Old Guan back.

”I'm hoping you'll sit together with Old Lu. Too bad.” Old Guan was a little bit disappointed that the intense bickering show of his told two friends that he was expecting was nowhere.

Lu Yin Ze stand up and came to their table to greet Old Xiong.

”Godfather, how are you?”

”I'm good. Thanks to my granddaughter.”

Old Xion answered while looking at Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi who glanced a bit to Guan Gao Huan's side looked at her grandfather when she was mentioned. She was a bit stunned that her stoic grandfather would compliment her like this.

��Ho.Ho.Ho Looks like I've lived long enough to witness Old Xiong complimenting his kin.” Old Guan commented at the side.

”Good evening, Master Guan.” Lu Yin Ze greeted Old Guan as well.

”Looks like you've adjusted well.” Old Guan nodded at Lu Yin Ze.

Lu Yin Ze then turned to Guan Gao Huan.

It was the first time Lu Yin Ze met him after eight years. Among the three Guan brothers, the youngest, Guan Gao Huan was the closest to Lu Yin Ze before.

Because their age was a bit close and their shyness and cry-baby personality were the same.

However, when Lu Yin Ze met Guan Gao Huan's eyes, the smile and the warm words that were supposed to greet his former playmate stopped.

He could see Guan Gao Huan smiling gently to him, however, those eyes were saying something else. It was scrutinizing him. Was it the same shy and cry-baby Gao Huan that he played before?

' It looks like eight years changed him so much. Like me.' Lu Yin Ze thought.

Lu Yin Ze who changed from a lively boy to a lone wolf thought that Gao Huan who was being left alone in states made him masked himself like this.

”It's been a while, Young Master Gao Huan.” The warm words turned into a formal greeting instead.

Gao Huan smiled deepened, his eyes became colder and there was something else.

”Yeah. It's been a while.” Gao Huan bowed to Lu Yin Ze as well. He bowed too to Old Lu. Old Lu just nodded to him.

”Xiong Zhi.” Lu Yin Ze turned to Xiong Zhi and casually called her name. He bowed to her as a greeting.

Xiong Zhi returned the greeting. ”Good evening, Yin Ze.”

This casual greeting made Gao Huan raised his eyebrow slightly.

Xiong Zhi then greeted the Masters and the couple Tang Xinyang and Jang Shin.

However, she did not greet him.

No one noticed this but Gao Huan who was waiting for Xiong Zhi to greet him and prolong a conversation frowned.

'Did she deliberately do this?'

However, Gao Huan could not think of the reason why she had to do this to him. They only met once. He also could not forget that he lost the chance to talk to her in the Xiong's banquet.

So, Gao Huan approached her first.

”Young Miss Zhi, it been a long time.”

Xiong Zhi just glanced at him then looked at the side.

”Yeah. Its been a long time.”

Gao Huan hides his frown.

'why this girl is not looking at me? Is it just me?'

So he gives another try,

”We are in the same school but we never met at school even once.” Gao Huan chatted with Xiong Zhi. He was polite and he was gentle.

Xiong Zhi glanced at him then looked again sideways.
