Chapter 1303 - Attractive Woman
Having been ambushed by his mother out of the blue, Sikong fell silent.
Yes, he was well aware that because he was not married and rarely made friends, his mother and her other friends often plotted behind his back.
Pfft.
Hearing him speak, the old butler in front couldn’t help but chuckle.
But in the next second, Butler Fu felt a gaze land on him. When Butler Fu glanced into the rearview mirror, he saw Sikong Heng gazing at him coldly through his gold-rimmed glasses.
“I’m sorry, Young Master.”
Butler Fu pursed his lips and apologized obediently.
Sikong Heng retracted his gaze lightly.
However…
Sikong Heng suddenly thought back to the woman who had helped Xia Ling regain her memories… that mysterious university student. His mind kept replaying that scene from a few days ago when he had caught a glimpse of her. She was like a cold orchid.
Huh. Why was he suddenly thinking about a completely irrelevant person?
Sikong Heng quickly placed his focus back on Mr Bai.
At this moment, Madam Sikong and Mrs Bai walked out. They were probably tired of waiting as Mrs Bai had already given her daughter a call. The call went through and Mrs Bai scolded her daughter impatiently, “Ah Xue, when are you coming back?”
“Mom, I’m already on my way. There’s a traffic jam.”
Sikong Heng overheard the voice on the phone. It was calm yet warm and sounded very soothing as she spoke to her mother.
“What, a traffic jam? Ah Xue, which road are you on? I’ll send a driver over.”
“Ah, Mom, what are you saying? The signal here isn’t good, I can’t hear you…”
Mrs Bai’s tone turned angry. “Ah Xue…”
“Hello, hello… Mom, I can’t hear you… hello…”
With that, she hung up the call.
Silence filled the air.
Mrs Bai and Mr Bai stared at each other angrily as an awkwardness surrounded them all.
Sikong Heng smiled faintly. This daughter of theirs had a talent for acting. She didn’t want to marry him, which was fine by him.
Just then, his cell phone rang.
He took out his phone and answered the call. “Hello?”
“Master, there’s been trouble. The man in black has been taken by someone!”
Sikong Heng’s black eyes sharpened behind his gold-rimmed glasses. “I’ll be there soon.”
“Yes, Master. We’ve already located the thief. They just entered the Seasons Hotel.”
…
Seasons Hotel.
The underling spoke in a soft voice. “Master, the people from the Herbal Room are here.”
The Black Rose only smiled and said, “They got here faster than I expected. Leave with the man in black. I’ll hold them off.”
“Yes.”
The underlings left with the man in black.
At this moment, a set of footsteps approached them and instructions were heard.
“I want this entire area surrounded.”
They were surrounded.
The Black Rose tread forwards in her high heels. She was in a black fitted dress, which accentuated her full chest, slim waist, and shapely butt with every step she took. A cold and beautiful aura surrounded her. Any man who saw this would have his blood pumping in an instant.
Her raven black hair flowed down her back lazily, revealing her small, pretty face. She showed no fear as the men in front approached her and instead her eyes only shone more brightly. In the dim corridor, she glowed like a beautiful black rose, attracting everyone’s attention.
She reached out to her black skirt and ripped the seams apart, revealing the white skirt she had on underneath. Then she kicked her high heels off, wiping the lipstick off her lips before tying her hair up into a ponytail. Within seconds, she immediately transformed from the dangerous Black Rose into the cool, yet innocent Bai Xue.
The men from the Herbal Room pulled the door open and entered as she ran towards them frantically with her feet bare.
“Ah, save me!”
She fell headfirst into a man’s embrace.
Sikong Heng froze. He had no time to dodge at all before someone jumped into his arms.
It was a soft body. He had caught a whiff of her scent when the random person had jumped at him. It was the scent of an orchid, the scent of a young woman.
Sikong Heng was a doctor and a slight germaphobe. But he had touched many girls in his life and taken in all kinds of scents before.
