Chapter 88 - 88 Liu Meis troubles (1/2)

Everyone's attention had turned to this young man who was looking at Shun Long with a hostile gaze. He had caught him looking at Liu Mei but what had frustrated him even more, was that Liu Mei seemed to be dazed for a second looking at him as well.

The cold and proud Liu Mei who had never showed him any special attention, had her gaze glued to another man.

Fatty Fu was the first to react as he looked at this man and in a voice full of anger he said

''Meng Shengyi, you pathetic bootlicker how dare you insult my brother?! Why is trash like you even following sister Liu and my Jinjing anyway?''

The young master of the Meng family was furious after hearing fatty Fu's insulting words, but before he could even respond to him, Liu Mei's cold voice sounded as she said

''Young master Meng, please don't call me sister Mei as if we are intimate together. You and I barely know each other.''

Liu Mei was extremely annoyed by Meng Shengyi's words. Although he had occasionally pestered her privately calling her sister Mei even though she had expressed her dislike numerous times, calling her like that in public was almost hinting that they were closer than they really are. However, although Liu Mei disliked Meng Shengyi, she had her own personal problems as well.

Lan Jinjing however gave a thumbs up to fatty Fu secretly as she then said

''Senior sister, I had an appointment with Fu Li today can you please accompany me?''

Liu Mei nodded her head at Lan Jinjing as they followed behind Fu Li who was heading with Shun Long towards one of the private rooms in the back.

Meanwhile, Meng Shengyi was still like a statue in the middle of the third floor, as everyone watched him being left alone.

His face had turned scarlet, unknown if he was embarrassed or angry as he looked at Liu Mei's and Lan Jinjing's back thoughtfully before he turned to leave the floor while he thought to himself

''Liu Mei, you ungrateful bitch. I have been chasing you for over a year and yet you still refuse to acknowledge me even after all of my sincerity? Watch how I make you pay in the future!''

As Meng Shengyi left the third floor of the 'Treasure Pavilion', Fu Li and Shun Long along with the 2 girls had just entered in one of the private rooms near the back. As soon as the door closed, Lan Jinjing started laughing as she said

''Fu Li, good job. Although you can be considered a lazy pig most of the time and grandpa Fu is right to beat you, you really made me happy today seeing Meng Shengyi's bitter face like that.''

Liu Mei was also smiling as she heard that while Fu Li had a serious expression on his face as he asked Lan Jinjing

''Meng Shengyi can be a real problem for sister Liu though. He has been trying to court her for such a long time, and his father has even asked for permission from the sect master. Although the sect master said that he will consider this matter, wasn't today equivalent of slapping Meng Shengyi in the face?''

Lan Jinjing seemed as if she wanted to say something, but she then looked warily at Shun Long before she threw a look at fatty Fu.

Fatty Fu understood her meaning as he said

''This is my brother Shun Long. Jinjing you don't have to look warily at him. You had also seen him when he had come in conflict inside the 'Alchemist's Guild' with that Bu Duyi. Anyways, he is my brother, you don't have to worry about anything and can speak freely.''
