Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering

Chapter 1606: He Grabbed Her Wrist

When Tang Xi arrived at the banquet hall on the fifth floor, Ling Hui and the Ninth Prince were dancing.

The two of them were dancing a waltz.

Because of their appearance, the originally lively banquet hall became much quieter. The men and women consciously gave up the center position to them.

Everyone’s eyes were on the handsome man and beautiful woman in the middle of the dance floor.

The man was wearing a white shirt and black pants, his tall figure exuding a masculine charm. The woman in front of him was wearing a long red dress, the tailored fabric outlining her exquisite curves perfectly.

The two of them cooperated very well. Every time the woman spun, tilted, and swayed, the man would catch her steadily.

They danced beautifully and smoothly.

The man raised his hand again and the woman spun two rounds before she was pulled into the man’s arms again. The two of them looked at each other affectionately and smiled.

The song ended and there was a moment of silence.

Immediately after, a wave of applause sounded.

Tang Xi stood at the corner of the banquet hall with a glass of red wine in his hand, looking at the woman on the dance floor through the crowd.

Her red lips lifted into a charming smile.

Tang Xi was motionless like a stone statue, his slender eyes slightly red.

He tightened his grip on the cup he was holding and it suddenly made a soft sound as it cracked.

A sharp glass shard pierced his palm, but he did not feel any pain.

The young man who came with Tang Xi saw that Tang Xi’s palm was injured and pulled him out of the banquet hall.

“Is this worth it?”

Tang Xi’s expression was dark and he did not speak. The red liquid in his palm flowed to his wrist and dyed his sleeves red.

...

After Ling Hui finished dancing with the Ninth Prince, her eyebrows twitched and she glanced at the entrance of the banquet hall.

She did not know if she was hallucinating, but she felt like there was a pair of eyes staring at her.

However, after looking around, she did not see anyone familiar.

“Miss Ling, shall we talk in my room?”

Ling Hui looked at the Ninth Prince, her red lips curling up. “Ninth Prince, I heard that there’s a wine tasting room here. Shall we go for a drink?”

The Ninth Prince looked at the charming woman in front of him and his Adam’s apple bobbed. “It’s my honor to drink with a beauty.”

They headed to the wine tasting room.

Ling Hui settled the Ninth Prince on the barstool and walked behind the bar counter with a smile.

There were all kinds of expensive wine in the wine cabinet. Ling Hui took a few bottles and found a mixing shaker. Seeing her actions, the Ninth Prince raised his eyebrows. “Miss Ling knows how to mix wine?”

“I learned a few moves from the nightclub’s bartenders in the past. But the Ninth Prince cannot laugh at me if I don’t do it well.”

The Ninth Prince smirked. He thought that Ling Hui was just playing around, but he had not expected her to really know how to mix drinks. Her actions were neat and clean and she was suave. She looked just like a bartender. He applauded. “Not bad, not bad. Miss Ling has given me countless surprises tonight.”

Ling Hui pushed the mixed wine in front of the Ninth Prince and pouted her red lips. “Ninth Prince, have a taste.”

The Ninth Prince took a sip and nodded. “It’s delicious.” Then, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling Hui. “Miss Ling, what do you want from me since you won at the gambling table?”

“I won’t hide it from the Ninth Prince. I want a life-saving pill.”

When the Ninth Prince heard Ling Hui’s words, he was stunned for a moment before he laughed. “Miss Ling, women who approach me only want to climb into my bed, but you want a life-saving pill! Who do you want to save?”

“My father.”

“Miss Ling is a straightforward person. But to be honest, I had only three life-saving pills. I ate one myself, gave one to my father, and gave the remaining one to my most beloved younger sister.”

Ling Hui’s beautiful red lips pursed slightly.

She had not expected to end up with nothing tonight.

Seeing the disappointment in Ling Hui’s eyes, the Ninth Prince drank all of Ling Hui’s wine. He stood up and walked toward the bar counter. “Miss Ling, how about this? I’ll give you a chance. Be my woman and I’ll guarantee you a high position and wealth in the future. You can enjoy endless... Uh, why am I so dizzy?”

Ling Hui looked at the swaying Ninth Prince and her eyes turned cold. “You’re drunk.”

The Ninth Prince was full of doubts. “Drunk? I just drank a glass of wine...” Before he could finish, he collapsed.

Ling Hui did not look at the Ninth Prince anymore. She stepped over him, pulled open the door of the wine tasting room, and went out.

She was a little depressed that she had not gotten the life-saving pill.

She had originally planned to leave Guna Castle and walk to the gate, but was told that there were rules in Guna Castle. She could not go out after midnight and had to leave the next morning.

Ling Hui was speechless. What kind of stupid rule was this?

Since she could not get out, she had no choice but to go to the rooftop garden on the top floor of Guna Castle.

There was a restaurant there and Ling Hui ordered some food. After eating, she placed her hands on the balcony railing and enjoyed the night breeze. Her mood improved slightly.

Ling Hui did not know how long had passed before she heard footsteps behind her. At first, she did not care about them, but after a while, she felt a strong and dangerous aura lingering around her and she turned back to take a look.

She was stunned.

How could it be Tang Xi?

What a coincidence! He had come to Guna Castle too?

When she had interacted with the Ninth Prince earlier, she had felt a burning gaze on her. Was it not her illusion but Tang Xi?

Ling Hui’s heart beat faster, like a child who had done something bad and had been caught by an adult.

However, on second thought, she had not done anything out of line, and neither had she gone against their agreement. There was nothing to be afraid of!

The night breeze was a little strong. Ling Hui brushed a strand of hair that had blown to her cheek behind her ear. From the corner of her eye, she saw Tang Xi’s bandaged hand and broke the silence, asking, “What happened to your hand?”

Tang Xi had his hands in his pockets and under his tall nose, he pursed his lips, which used to be in a constant smirk. He did not respond to her.

Ling Hui saw that his expression was not too good and took the initiative to explain, “The Ninth Prince and I don’t have that kind of relationship. Don’t misunderstand.”

The corners of Tang Xi’s lips lifted into a mocking smile. “Do you care if I misunderstand?”

Ling Hui said nothing.

Tang Xi knew that she did not care at all.

“You dressed up like this to seduce the Ninth Prince? What do you want from him?” Tang Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, his handsome and devilish facial features showing a hint of coldness and sharpness. “Oh, are you planning to do something with him after the one-month agreement with me?”

Ling Hui furrowed her exquisite eyebrows. She did not like to explain too much. Hearing Tang Xi’s strange tone, she pursed her red lips tightly. After a while, she said coldly, “You can think whatever you want. After the agreement is over, we will become strangers.”

The atmosphere froze.

Ling Hui did not want to argue with him here. She strode away, planning to leave. However, she had only taken two steps before he grabbed her wrist.
