To Love You Again

Chapter 542 - Sharing A Table

Finally, Xiong Zhi and Linfeng arrived at the front area. They were not on the first row but on the second row instead. It was the table which Tang Xinyang arranged for them.

As the two sat down, the old men on the table before them who were silently observing the newly arrived pair was surprised.

"Your granddaughter will not be sitting on your table?" Old Guan from the neighboring table commented to Old Xiong. The tables for the legendary families were closer together compared to the others, obviously arranged by Mistress Tang.

"Why would she sit there?" Old Lu asked confusedly. It was a given that the juniors from the same family would be sitting by their elders.

"This despicable man!" Old Xiong angrily snorted.

When the Old Guan and Old Lu heard Old Xiong's annoyed words, they swallowed down their upcoming questions.

It turned out that the old man himself did not know as well that his precious granddaughter would not be joining them at their table.

It was only Lu Yin Ze who was silent and drank more. The moment he saw the two coming together hand in hand, he knew then that he would not be able to share a table with her.

Old Xiong harrumphed.

His granddaughter was not married yet, however, she was already separating herself from her own grandfather!

Old Xiong kept glaring at the couple's table. Especially at Linfeng.

Linfeng leaned at Xiong Zhi. "Your grandfather keeps glaring at me. Are you sure it is wise to not greet him? There's Master Lu and Master Guan over there as well."

Xiong Zhi did not care. "We can greet them later." She then leaned against Linfeng. "This is a good opportunity to shut up the others who have interest in you. It's good to give them hints that we are a couple."

Xiong Zhi was obviously snuggling against Linfeng now.

Linfeng chuckled. "I think many people will get angry at me for hogging the most amazing woman's interest."

Xiong Zhi: " They will get angry, but won't you be even angrier if someone else showed interest on me?"

Linfeng narrowed his eyes and held her hand. "Let them try. I will let them know just who they are facing."

Over his dead body would they get to touch his woman.

Xiong Zhi understood Linfeng's meaning. The corner of her lips turned up.

"...Fine, as if you will let them."

The two looked at each other while showing their deep love in their eyes.

There were murmurs around them. Many eyes were watching their every move.

Xiong Zhi could not help but point out this situation. "Come to think of it, this is our first time sharing a table in front of these people, right?"

Linfeng looked around. The eyes around them was throwing them intrigued looks. The faces clearly wondered what was the real relationship between them.

Linfeng smiled. "You forgot, when we came to the Tang's banquet last time, you asked me to sit beside you."

"That's different. You attended as my butler back then. At that time, there just happened to be a free seat."

"Then I guess this is really the first time I officially came as your partner, sitting on the same table with you like a normal guest."

Xiong Zhi was happy. "You've come a long way just to sit with me. Thank you, Linfeng." She tightened her hold on his hand. She sincerely expressed her gratefulness in her heart.

Xiong Zhi did not care about Linfeng's status. But no matter what she thought, it was a fact that their status was a huge wall that they needed to overcome.

Now, Linfeng had made it possible for their relationship to continue and get approved by the world.

At least now, no one would scold them for acting shamelessly and going against the norm.

Linfeng had made it all possible.

Her sincere thanks and loving eyes made Linfeng want to give her the whole world.

His eyes softened. "Zhi'er, I could not have done it alone. All the years I endured are thanks to you. You made me work hard towards my goal and be happy at the same time. Thank you for your patience." Xiong Zhi had waited for him and supported him all throughout. He could not achieve both status and happiness without Xiong Zhi.

The couple once again fell into their own woven magic, forgetting everything else.

The onlookers who was initially doubting what their relationship was began to understand the meaning of the intimacy between the pair.

Shocking!

The atmosphere between the newly established sixth king and the Xiong Heiress was not just for friends or business partners. This was clearly the air of a couple in love!

"I am sorry to interrupt, but I'll be sharing the same table with you." A voice of a woman made the pink bubbles in the air pop.

Xiong Zhi's brows twitched slightly. She looked up at the handsome beauty who appeared before them.

"You always have a bad timing," she muttered.

"What?" Tang Xinyang asked with an innocent look.

Linfeng: "Just sit down. Where's Jang Shin?"

Tang Xinyang sat on one of the empty chairs. "He is helping William change clothes."

Xiong Zhi was stunned. "What happened?"

"There is a small fight, and William has to change clothes."

Xioong Zhi and Linfeng looked at eah other. They understand what happened without Tang Xinyang retelling the whole story.

"What a waste. I paid quite a bit for his suit. It's haute couture. How will you compensate me?" Xiong Zhi said. The white suit which she gave to WIlliam was priceless and unique. It was made by Mr. Cang. She had really given a lot of importance in getting that suit since it was her 'thank you' gift to William's effort in the past week.

"..So stingy? Is the Xiong Empire getting bankrupt or what?"

"We are businessmen."

Tang Xinyang scratched her head. She had forgotten that her friend was a bit materialistic and had a rather unconventional mind. "That...I'll pay you twice."

Xiong Zhi stopped for a while. That would be a lot of money. She can add it as extra equity. She nodded. "That's good. But how will you pay for William's bad experience? He is my client and you gave him such a bad trauma."

Tang Xinyang touched her head. There was a compensation for trauma? How much did she owe Jang Shin then?

"Ah...I'll pay thrice...?"

Xiong Zhi finally smiled. She could faintly hear the sound of money being piled up. "Alright. I will give you the pay check later."

Linfeng shook his head with a smile.

Tang Xinyang nodded with hesitation. Linfeng's helpless smile and Xiong Zhi satisfied smile... She knew that she had been ripped off. Her instincts were top notch so she tried to ask.

"How much..--" She was about to ask how much it all cost when a brusqe voice was heard behind them.

"Pretty snob woman?" A tall Arabic man came to their table.

Xiong Zhi and Linfeng immediately recognized him. It was only Tang Xinyang who did not.

Tang Xinyang turned around to the voice who interrupted her.

It was a man, a handsome man to be exact. But in her eyes, he was just a rude person who called a woman 'pretty snob'.

"Who are you?" Tang Xinyang asked with a frown.

It was Linfeng who answered, "Sir Eitan, you attend as well."

Linfeng stood up to shake hands with the man.

Eitan recognized Linfeng. "Oh, Mr. Linfeng. We only saw each other in the past month during our collaboration. It's nice to see you here as well."

Linfeng smiled, "It's my honor. It seems like the Tang family invited the Abromich family," Linfeng said meaningfully when he saw that beside their table was Etian's father, Ifel Abromich, the underground king in the Middle East.

Ifel Abromich heard Linfeng and just raised his hand as a greeting.

Linfeng bowed.

Xiong Zhi got this cue to nod in greeting as well.

The Arabic old man just returned with a slight bow.

Eitan glanced at Xiong Zhi, but since he saw that this beautiful woman came with Linfeng and might be already taken by the man, he directed his attention to Tang Xinyang.

"We have met before in IAmFashiniosta. You are quite feisty at that time."

Tang Xinyang: "..." She still did not remember him, ah.

Eitan then looked at the empty seat. "May I sit here for a moment?"

Xiong Zhi and Linfeng was about to nod but Tang Xinyang's fast mouth spoke first, "I am saving that seat for someone."

Eitan: "..."

He halted the hand that was about to pull the chair open.

"Oh, is it for your companion?"

"No, my boyfriend," Tang Xinyang said confidently.

Eitan: "..."

Xiong Zhi and Linfeng: "...."

The two were thinking: When did Jang Shin become your boyfriend? Does he know about it?

Eitan then recovered. He liked this woman, but he already got rejected twice.

He just smiled a bit embarrassingly. "Is that so? I am sorry to bother you. Gentleman, ladies, I will excuse myself."

Eitan bid goodbye to Xiong Zhi and Linfeng.

The couple had no choice but to let the man go with a helpless expression.

Xiong Zhi looked blamingly at Tang Xinyang. "You are being rude."

"What is so rude about me? Compared to you, I'm an angel."

Xiong Zhi: "..."

Linfeng chuckled and poked Xiong Zhi's puffed cheeks.

Yeah, his girlfriend was quite ruthless in squatting flies, but he loved it anyway.
