NOVPUBAt that moment, Si Meng was holding a beer bottle in one hand and a wine glass in the other, constantly toasting the guests.
She was like a rose blooming amidst thorns, beautiful yet thorny.
The looks she received from the guests were filled with blatant desire and malicious coveting, but Si Meng seemed unfazed, as if she was both outside of it all and greatly enjoying it.
Her wine glass shimmered under the light with a charming luster, and each toast she made carried with it a unique flair.
She moved her slender waist and approached a table of guests, where the eyes of the men instantly heated up, their gazes roaming freely over her body.
Yet Si Meng didn’t mind at all. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, revealing a seductive smile, while her eyes sparkled with an indescribable light—akin to a challenge, as well as a pleasure derived from controlling the situation, "Gentlemen, I toast to you, let’s enjoy ourselves tonight!"
Her voice carried a hint of coquettishness, sweet as a nightingale’s song, yet it possessed a bewitching magic.
A man with a face full of flesh chuckled ’heh heh’ and attempted to touch Si Meng’s waist, but Si Meng nimbly dodged with grace, her smile remaining brilliant, without a trace of displeasure.
"Big brother, that’s not appropriate!" Si Meng chuckled and shook her head, rejecting the man without causing any displeasure, smoothly avoiding being taken advantage of.
It was evident that she had long since adapted to such complex surroundings, effortlessly dealing with those men of ill intentions.
A wave of inexplicable emotions surged in Chen Nan’s heart.
If it weren’t for her despicable father, how could her life have turned out this way?
However.
Wasn’t this exactly what he wanted?
What he sought was first and foremost a beauty, most importantly, someone who could effortlessly manage the relationships around her and play men like a fiddle!
At the same time.
Si Meng had also noticed Chen Nan’s arrival, her face wearing a flirtatious smile, her voice melodious, "Handsome, are you alone?"
Chen Nan looked over himself with a look of bemusement and bitterly smiled, "I have all my limbs, I’m not just one person, could I possibly be another kind of animal?"
Si Meng laughed heartily at Chen Nan’s response, her ample front quivering dramatically, which under the streetlight appeared quite deadly.
Her laughter, like silver bells, distinctly rang out amidst the noisy barbecue stall, drawing the attention of many people who started looking in their direction.
"Handsome, you really are funny," Si Meng blinked her large eyes, dark as black gems, the light within them like the twinkling stars in the night sky—brilliant, captivating, and full of charm, "I meant to ask if you’ve come to eat barbecue alone, or if you’re waiting for friends?"
"Just me," Chen Nan replied with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Right this way, please." Si Meng gestured invitingly, leading the way with a graceful figure and brought Chen Nan to an octagonal table, her face beaming, "What would you like to eat?"
Without much thought, Chen Nan casually said, "Bring me some specialties!"
Upon hearing this, Si Meng’s face immediately showed a troubled expression, looking like a child facing a difficult problem, "If that’s the case, then you won’t be able to eat anything at all."
Chen Nan was puzzled, his brow furrowing slightly, "Why?"
Si Meng’s face immediately revealed a mischievously bad smile, like a clever and sly little fox, full of playfulness and wit.
She raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, her lips curling up a bit with a hint of pride, "Because this shop, my specialty."
After saying that, she cast a meaningful glance at Chen Nan, a look deep as an unfathomable pool, hiding countless heart-stirring little secrets, making one’s heart itch uncontrollably, as if an invisible hand was lightly scratching at one’s heart.
Seeing her cunning and charming smile, Chen Nan’s heart fluttered like a lake’s surface struck by a pebble, rippling gently, and his breathing became slightly more rapid without him noticing.
At this moment, he seemed to understand why Si Meng’s barbecue stall was so bustling with business.
This woman not only possessed a stunning appearance, where her delicate features seemed to be meticulously sculpted by God, perfect in every aspect.
But also her figure was as hot as blazing flames, her alluring curves revealed in every move she made, and coupled with her interesting and thought-provoking words and actions, it was hard for the business not to thrive.
However, Chen Nan still harbored a hint of confusion.
He really couldn’t understand why she would stoop so low, not hesitating to sacrifice her own appeal, tolerating those men’s ill-intentioned gazes and profanity to make money?
What sort of story was hidden behind all this?
Chen Nan snapped out of his thoughts, a smile hanging on his lips, he asked, "Then, how can I taste this shop’s specialty?"
Si Meng hadn’t expected Chen Nan to ask such a question. If it were someone else, they might have been flustered by the question, but she appeared calm and composed, as if everything was within her control.
She again lifted her willowy eyebrows, her captivating eyes twinkling with allure like the brightest star in the night sky, her gaze carrying a hint of provocation, "Two million for a taste of the shop’s specialty, pay first, taste later. Would you like to try?"
Chen Nan couldn’t help but smack his lips, a look of surprise on his face, as he exclaimed, "That price isn’t cheap at all!"
Si Meng narrowed her eyes slightly, sizing Chen Nan up. He was dressed in a Daoist robe, wearing a hairpin, his posture upright, exuding an air of transcendence, like an Immortal descending to earth, that aura of an immortal caught her fancy.
Her plump, lush lips parted slightly, and her voice melodious like a nightingale’s song, "I can give you a twenty percent discount."
But Chen Nan shook his head, his gaze deepened, like a wise man contemplating the intricacies of the world, "I’ve always believed in getting what you pay for. Everything has its value, and there’s a reason for the high price. You don’t need to lower your worth."
Si Meng was taken aback; she didn’t expect Chen Nan to suddenly become so profound. It was quite contrary to the light-hearted demeanor he had shown earlier, and for a moment, she didn’t know how to respond.
Seeing this, Chen Nan smiled and said, "Give me ten skewers of lamb, ten of pork, a skewer of kidney, two skewers of green peppers, a plate of peanuts and edamame, and two bottles of chilled beer."
"Sure, please wait a moment," Si Meng replied with a charming smile still playing on her lips.
Then, she moved her slender waist, which was as sinuous as a snake, towards the fridge in front of the grill.
She took out the items Chen Nan ordered from the fridge and handed them to the nearby barbecue master.
Soon, the items Chen Nan had ordered were served.
The taste of the barbecue was not particularly sensational.
But having such a beautiful boss serving him, pouring his drink personally, provided Chen Nan with a unique experience.
Especially when she bent over, the scenery in front was unreservedly revealed, fair and soft, deeply teasing Chen Nan’s heartstrings, leaving him breathless, his mouth dry and his tongue parched...
