1783 Darling, I’m Back! (1/2)
Ning Xi pushed the door and went inside.
The room had a simple design. A black coffee table was in the middle with a U-shaped calf leather sofa surrounding it. Opposite it was a semi-closed European-style railing from which one could take in all of the clamor and bustle below.
The room was exceptionally clean and not as messy as she expected.
While the environment outside was noisy, this room felt isolated, providing her with an intense feeling of loneliness.
What attracted her was the man on the sofa.
Ning Xi felt every single sound pass by her ear when she saw the person. The bright lights around her turned dim as well.
In her eyes, in her whole world, there was only one light left; only this person in front of her was left.
The man's eyes were cold as he pursed his lips and closed his eyes. He put his elbow on the sofa arm and rested his head on his arm. If it were not for the numerous amount of empty wine bottles beside him, anyone would think he was just thinking or taking a rest.
This man was so disciplined even when he was getting himself drunk.
Ning Xi held back the urge to cry. Instead, she stood there and smiled. ”Mister, do you need some service?”
The girl's dry and hoarse voice joined the noisy music.
”Get lost.”
The next moment, a wine glass smashed to the floor beside her feet.
While the glass did not injure her, the man's overwhelming rage and the cold aura he emitted was enough to make anyone feel like a death god was pointing a blade at their throat.
