996 Perplexed and Smitten 56 (1/2)

”Why did you go to Hu Xin's place for dinner? Is there no one here to make dinner for you? Have all restaurants outside folded?” An Xiaoning questioned.

”I went because I felt like it. What other reasons do I need? I just act according to my mood,” he answered straightforwardly.

”Do you fancy girls like her?”

”Must I really tell you that? So what if you know? You're not my type anyway,” he answered haughtily.

An Xiaoning walked toward him and he avoided her without hesitation. ”What are you trying to do?” he questioned.

”I hope you'll have a proper talk with me and stop putting on airs. It makes me tempted to do you on the spot whenever we can't see eye to eye, do you understand?”

”Why would such a woman like you exist in this world!?!” exclaimed a flabbergasted Henry. ”Let's answer each other's question again, okay?”

”What?”

”How are you so strong?”

”I'll answer one of your questions and you shall answer three of mine. How does that sound?” she suggested with raised brows.

”Isn't that so unfair? Why must I answer three of your questions when you only have to answer one of mine?”

”Well, you must do that if you want to find out. Forget it if you don't want to. The decision lies with you,” she said, smiling at him.

He conceded in the end because he really wanted to know the answer to his question.

”My grandmother left a secret manual about psychological techniques for my mother, and I managed to master all of the techniques taught in the manual. Not only did I gain incredible strength, I've also become immune to all types of poisons and I no longer feel cold in the winter. I can break a wall with just a slight push. Don't you think it'd be a piece of cake for me to deal with you?”

Bewilderment was written all over his face, not expecting that to be the answer at all. ”Such things still exist in this world?”

”What's so strange about that if even you can exist? Okay, you can answer my questions now. As mentioned earlier, why did you go to Hu Xin's place for dinner? Did she invite you over or did you go out of your own accord?”

”Why are you asking that question again? Didn't I already tell you that it was because I was following my heart?”

”I'm asking you, why did you go there following your heart? Answer me,” she asked sternly.

”She said that someone of such high status like me would definitely not visit her residential district. I asked why and she said it's because it's a downtown district that's more messy and crowded. Hence, I wanted to see just how busy and crowded it is and decided to go. It then began raining and she invited me to her house to take shelter.”

An Xiaoning immediately understood and said, ”Oh, I see. Next question, do you fancy her?”

He looked at her and asked, ”If I said that I do, are you going to do something to her?”

Shaking her head, she answered, ”No, I'm not going to touch her just because you say that you fancy her.”

”I do like girls like her. She may be poor but she's ambitious and doesn't have an inferiority complex. She can stoop or stand yet she's very meek and gentle too.”

Despite feeling a little disappointed, An Xiaoning did not say much and asked her third question, ”Henry, tell me all your information.”

She knew that he had an identity of his own, although he was just a second personality.

This identity that he recognized had completely nothing to do with Jin Qingyan.

He answered sluggishly, ”My name is Henry and I'm 24 years old this year. I'm a freelancer.”

”Freelancer? In which field?”

”Car racing.”

”What!?!” exclaimed a dumbfounded An Xiaoning.
