Chapter 493: An Attractive Arm
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
“May I sit down here?” Xiao Yao stood beside He Wanyi and gazed at her face. As she had drunk too much wine, her face was red and her eyes were slightly blurred, which made her look very sexy. Seeing her face, Xiao Yao paused.
He Wanyi stared at him for a few seconds, when Xiao Yao thought she was going to look away, she suddenly supported her chin with her hand, looked at Xiao Yao in confusion and giggled, “If I say, you are not allowed to sit here, are you not sitting here?”
Xiao Yao paused. Yes, if she didn’t allow him to sit here, he wouldn’t sit here, lest she felt uncomfortable. After a short pause, Xiao Yao nodded. He Wanyi smiled and pointed to the chair beside her. “Sit.”
Xiao Yao looked at her in surprise. After he sat down, she suddenly rested her head on Xiao Yao’s shoulder and chuckled. “I knew you’d come over. In fact, I have long wanted to pull you to sit by my side, so I can do this.” With that, she suddenly held Xiao Yao’s arm tightly.
Seeing them being like this, the others who weren’t paying attention to them just now all gaped with mouths wide open. He Wanzhou pointed at the two of them and shouted in shock, “What are you guys doing?!”
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Yao who was sat stiffly and then at He Wanyi who stuck to Xiao Yao tightly like an octopus. He picked up his glass, took a sip of the wine and smiled. “Look at how stiff Xiao Yao is. It’s clear which of them took the initiative.”
He Wanzhou narrowed his eyes, stood up and walked towards them, trying to drag He Wanyi away from Xiao Yao. How could his sister take the initiative to woo a man?! There was a long queue of men longing for Wanyi’s favor! How could Xiao Yao treat his sister like this? That was ridiculous.

Seeing He Wanzhou get angry, the others looked at him with interest. However, Qiao Liang who sat in the corner suddenly stood up and stood in He Wanzhou’s way. He Wanzhou frowned and stared at Qiao Liang. “What are you doing?” He reached out, trying to push Qiao Liang away. “Get out of my way.”
Qiao Liang didn’t move but looked at him expressionlessly. “Go back to your seat. Let’s have a drink.”
He Wanzhou was a bit drunk. Being stopped from walking by Qiao Liang, he pointed to He Wanyi and Xiao Yao and shouted angrily, “Can’t you see what my sister is doing? How can she put aside her dignity and woo a man?! That’s a disgrace to our family.”
Qiao Liang, “…” He remained expressionless.
He Wanzhou was annoyed and pushed Qiao Liang hard…
Shit, he just didn’t move!
Was this arm made of iron bar?!
He pushed him harder!
He still didn’t move!
He Wanzhou was immediately attracted by Qiao Liang’s arm and began to study it. Then he beckoned his bother. “Wanning, come here. Take a look at Qiao Liang’s arm!”
He Wanning, “…” He looked at the others shamefully. “I don’t know this idiot. He is not my brother.”
“Haha…” Xiao Jing gave He Wanning a thumbs-up. “He Wanning, welcome to join us. I think you’re more pleasing than He Wanzhou. My brother is many a woman’s dream lover. How could he stop his sister from chasing my brother? He is stupid.”
He Wanning shrugged and raised his eyebrows. “I don’t think it’s my sister who took the initiative. I remember she was sitting there and drinking alone just now.”
He meant that if Xiao Yao hadn’t come up to He Wanyi, she wouldn’t have done this to him. It was Xiao Yao who seduced his sister!

“But you can’t deny that your sister has loved my brother for many many years!” Xiao Jing raised his chin and snorted proudly.
He Wanning was speechless. He gently pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up with his index finger and picked up his wine glass…
Qiao Liang looked at the childish He Wanzhou and the corner of his eyes twitched. He went back to his seat and sat down. He Wanzhou hurriedly caught up with him. “Qiao Liang, tell me, which gym do you work out at?!”
Qiao Liang ignored him and didn’t bother to answer him. He Wanzhou shook his head and exclaimed, “Perfect. It’s perfect. Your arm is powerful yet beautiful, muscular but not bulky. Oh, I want an arm like this! Come on, tell me, which gym do you work out at?!”
Xiao Jing looked at the shameless He Wanzhou and snorted. He walked up and dragged He Wanzhou away. “It’s not about the gym. It’s about his work! If you do his job, you will have this kind of arms too!’
He acted as Qiao Liang’s training partner recently and his physical strength had improved a lot. He could imagine what kind of a training Qiao Liang had been receiving!
Tang Xi who sat beside Ning Yan narrowed her eyes and looked at Xiao Jing. The latter immediately realized he spilled the beans and hurriedly explained, “Well, I mean he has been exercising close quarter combat. As his training partner, my physical strength is also improving a lot!”
Tang Xi took back her gaze and suddenly thought of something. It happened several months ago and she had almost forgotten about it!
“Director Ning, have you settled that matter that happened in Paris?” Tang Xi didn’t want to pry into Ning Yan’s privacy, but she was worried that this matter might affect their movie, so she asked.
Ning Yan didn’t expect that Tang Xi would still remembered this matter. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi. “I’ve submitted the proof about the dirty deeds that Wang Bo had done to the Movie Association and the jury of the movie festival. I think his movie will be banned. But it doesn’t mean I will let him off. It’s just not the right time yet…”
Before he finished, someone called him. Tang Xi signaled that it was okay for him to pick up the call and turned to chat with others. After receiving the call, Ning Yan stood up and looked around in a good mood. “Let’s go to another club and continue to have fun?”
He Wanzhou was unhappy. “Why? Where do you want to go?”
Ning Yan turned up the corners of his mouth and said word by word, “Charming Night club.”
Hearing this name, the others all frowned. Xiao Yan shook his head. “No, it’s too disorderly over there and not suitable for Rourou and Wanyi. Let’s just drink some wine here and go back home.”
Tang Xi immediately said, “But we have you guys to protect us!”
