Chapter 1069 - 1069 I, Swift Snowy 2
1069 I, Swift Snowy 2
Qi Lei looked around but did not see anyone inside. However, from the looks of things, the owner should be present.
He frowned as he started casually looking at the antiques around him.
Ding!
Qi Lei suddenly heard the crisp sound of metal just as he turned at a corner. Quickly, he spun to the source of the sound and found a delightful scenery right before him.
Beside the swaying curtains, there was a lady wearing a loose, white shirt standing beside the window. There was a light-colored sash tied around her waist. Her long, silky hair was let down behind her back, and she wore a pair of beige cotton shoes on her feet.
Qi Lei already found her attractive just from the back. At this moment, he almost forgot how to breathe.
Goddess, please turn around! Hurry!
Second Master Qi whispered in his heart, but the beauty right there could not read his mind. Meanwhile, she was fidgeting with something in her hand.
It was a dart!
She shifted her center of gravity and aimed at some point outside the window. Then, she threw the dart without an ounce of hesitation.
Ding!
There was another sound of a dart landing.
Qi Lei squinted his eyes, barely able to see her face from his location.
Swift Snowy! Dongfang Liuyun!
He knew it. There was no way he could not find her!
“The stuff on your left is not for sale. Take a look at the things on your right.” A melodic voice reached his ears like the wind.
Qi Lei quickly gazed at the lady who did not even bother to turn around and continued to aim her next dart! Frowning, he hesitated for a moment and asked, “What if I told you that I’m not here to buy anything?”
“Come back tomorrow if you’re here to sell something. I’m not taking anything in today.”
Qi Lei chuckled. “Ms. Dongfang, it’s not very nice of you to turn your customers away. Aren’t customers supposed to be gods to every merchant?”
“That’s just for you, I’m the god on my turf.”
Ding!
She threw another dart, causing yet another crisp sound.
“I like your attitude, Ms. Dongfang, just like the Swift Snowy I know in the game. It’s as expected of the person I have my eyes on!” Qi Lei laughed, obviously very pleased.
The lady finally turned around when she heard his words and he finally caught a glimpse of her face! She looked just like the girl in the photo. Actually, she seemed much more attractive in person! This was the person Qi Lei had told Yang Sheng to investigate, Dongfang Liuyun. She was also known as Swift Snowy in the game he played!
Qi Lei’s eyes brightened when he saw her face. Slowly, he removed his sunglasses and flashed his usual wicked smile as he stared straight at her face. He felt like the sun rays were surrounding him at the moment.
“Game?” Dongfang Liuyun frowned slightly, but she then looked at Qi Lei with a calm expression though her eyes remained surprised. “Are you Eastern Gust?”
Qi Lei smiled even wider. “Do I not look like him? I came all the way here to meet you. Shouldn’t you treat me to a cup of tea before we have a long chat?”
Oddly enough, Qi Lei did not feel like they were strangers although this was their first time meeting. Instead, he felt like they had been friends for a long time. Maybe it was because they had known each other for quite some time in the game.
Despite being taken aback, Dongfang Liuyun tried to stay composed. “I don’t like to serve strangers.”
“But I’m not. I’m your dearest partner, and your…” While he did not say it, he threw her a suggestive glance. “You’re just like what the others said. You really are a beautiful woman.”
She narrowed her eyes at him. “Thank you for your compliment, but you’re very different from what I imagined. You aren’t that good-looking and you’re not as cool as your avatar.” She stood up straight and walked towards him but did not stop when she passed by him. Qi Lei could smell the fragrance from her when she walked right past him.
Hr was not angry at all as he followed behind her and grinned. “It’s my honor to be on your mind!”
“Do you always feel so conceited about yourself?” She sat down on a large, red chair and grabbed a cup to pour some tea for him without sparing him a glance.
Qi Lei sat down casually and just watched as she poured the tea. “Are you trying to insult me?”
“What do you think?” Dongfang Liuyun threw Qi Lei several sharp glances.
He just smiled and took a sip from the tea which was rather fragrant. Then, he finished the cup in one go to her surprise before telling her honestly, “The tea is great, but I don’t know much about tea.”
Dongfang Liuyun frowned slightly as she looked at the empty cup in his hand before saying, “You’re the first person to admit to knowing nothing about tea.”
“I’m always an honest person. I wouldn’t lie to my friends!” Qi Lei smiled.
However, his words made Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes darken.
