Chapter 651 - Loss And Profit (1/2)

Bai Xue feel conflicted, should she fall to the temptation to conquer the handsome and mysterious man or her 'undying' loyalty to her master, still she said to herself if she plays this game well she might just have both.

She accepts the wine Zhao Li Xin gave to her, she looks down and the clear water reflects her beautiful face, she glances at him as the man stares at her with a placid expression. She feel hesitant but she can't back down now.

She gulped the whole wine inside the cup to show her sincerity then she waits for a second waiting for a weird reaction from her body but nothing happens, she feel relief inwardly then she hands the winecup back to Zhao Li Xin.

He accepts the winecup, accidentally her pinky grazes his pinky finger, the touch make her body twitch as the electric sense rush from her finger to her brain. She quickly retracts her hand and her face turns red like a ripe tomato.

on the contrary, Zhao Li Xin didn't show any reaction ”Sanguan Jin Sheng might order you to get close to me isn't it, I don't know what his attention to giving me…..a woman” he sizes up Bai Xue with a demeaning look.

His ridicule gaze make her heart twinge, she hated the way he looks at him so she rebukes him strongly ”I'm not that kinda woman, and your father does all this because he cares about you!”

”Care? You mean 'control' isn't it? he wants to use a woman to put me on a leash, he might think if I fell for you then I would realize that I need the Sanguan family support if I want to marry you, so eventually, I would bed my knees to follow his order.....tell me if I'm wrong?” he raised his eyebrows arrogantly.

her face turns red then white, her lips trembles as she tries to find the words to refuted him but no words came from her mouth ”That….that is…”

All of a sudden he throws a bottle of jade toward her and Bai Xue catches the bottle in reflex, she looks at the bottle with a frown ”What is this?”

”Why don't you check yourself….” He said nonchalantly.

She opens the bottle carefully and sniffed the bottle, suddenly her eyes bulged then she look at Zhao Li Xin in disbelief ”White cloudy grass!” she stupefied.

The white Cloudy grass is a very rare grass and it grows randomly all over the place, it could be in the mountain or in the shore, it could be in a desert or in the snow. No one knows how to cultivate either if they took it from their habitat, no one know is impossible to grow the grass until one of the mad scientist name Jin Hao able to crack the secret of how to cultivate the grass. No one knows that precious rare grass now flourishes in the garden of white Dragon Palace.

The grass is used to enlarged the artery so they can absorb qi better, as a result, quickened their cultivation, in the outside, The white cloudy grass was taken as a treasure even as the core disciple of celestial Immortal she's not sure if her master will be generous enough to give her this.

She looks at Zhao Li Xin with doubt, this is not something that people with a low background like him could acquire so how could he did it ”How could you…where did you?” her words jumble together because of the shock.

”Is not that hard when you knew the right person, did Sanguan Jin sheng told you about my relationship with Long Ming?”

She shook her head ”No….” she feel indignant for Sanguan Jin sheng to hide this information from her, who didn't know about Long Ming, everyone wants to have a connection with him but long Ming elusive existance and his volatile temperament make the situation impossible to get close to him, however, this man is able to make a sort of relationship with the great man Long Ming.

”How is your relationship with Long Ming?” she probe.

Zhao Li Xin smirk ”Closer than you can dream of…”

”But your cultivation….” She confuses why Zhao Li Xin's cultivation is low when he has the treasure like the white cloudy grass.

”What make you think this is my real cultivation level?” his confident expression stunned Bai Xue.

She tightens her grip to the bottle, she looks at Zhao Li Xin with unstoppable d.e.s.i.r.e, the man is handsome like God, he had power, and if he could have a business with Long Ming then he must be loaded, if a man like him become hers how much glory she could have, the greed filled her eyes and at that time she decide to conquer the man whatever it takes.

That eyes….he had seen those eyes too many times, how boring it is. Zhao Li Xin waved his hand ”Tell Sanguan Jin Sheng that you able to get my attention”

”I know what to do” she smiles beautifully.

”Leave..” he ignores her smile while waving his hand indifferently.

Bai Xue pursed her lips she swallow her pride, there would be a time when he begging her for her love.

”I know what to do” she turns around and leaves.

After she left Mong Liu came bringing a tray with a wet towel on it then courteously show the tray in front of Zhao Li Xin, he took the wet towel from the tray then wiped his hand vigorously especially the pinky finger that touch Bai Xue finger.

Mong Liu stare at Zhao Li Xin behavior with perplexed looks, he could never understand Zhao Li Xin rejection of other human touches, only Mong Ki and Mong Yi who was allowed to touch him although he still hated it if they touch him too often other than the two brothers no women could get close to him or they would taste his wrath.

He thought after he met with a young madam it would heal his allergy to other human touch but sadly is not the case, Zhao Li Xin remains the same. Zhao Li Xin throws the wet towel on the table then he rubs his hand together still feel her finger are dirty.
