Chapter 1478 1473: You're Heartbroken? Like I Give a Damn [Fifth Update]
At some point, Lin Shuang'er had already dashed out of the store. She cautiously approached Su Chen, gently wrapped her arm around his, and stuck out her tongue lightly, saying, "So scary.""Didn't expect you to be scared of anything."
"Yeah, if one day you take me shopping for clothes and my sister catches us, I wonder if she'd do the same to me," Lin Shuang'er said worriedly.
Su Chen was speechless after hearing this. You seriously think I'd take you shopping? I need to have the money for that first.
"She wouldn't."
"Huh? Is my sister that kind?" Lin Shuang'er tilted her head, puzzled.
"She'd beat you to death, instead of just a simple scolding."
"Hmph, my sister adores me. She might even let you be with me!" Lin Shuang'er replied haughtily.
But this time, unexpectedly, Su Chen didn't respond, falling into sudden silence instead.
"What's up with you?" Lin Shuang'er seemed to notice that Su Chen's mood was off and nudged him.
"Nothing, let's go. You haven't bought what you needed yet." Su Chen shook his head.
"Oh."
Noticing Su Chen's mood was a bit off, Lin Shuang'er unexpectedly behaved, quickly purchasing a few things without giving Su Chen much chance to speak.
Did this shopping trip just end so plainly?
But with Lin Xi not in Jiangdu, how could Lin Shuang'er be that well-behaved!
As it was getting dark, Lin Shuang'er suggested going for drinks and karaoke, promising not to cause Su Chen any trouble.
Unable to resist her 'loving' plea, Su Chen reluctantly agreed in the end.
However, all along the way, Su Chen remained on guard, fearing she'd cause trouble again. The events of that day were still fresh in his mind.
So this time, Su Chen didn't let Lin Shuang'er choose the place and directly picked a bar himself.
Judging by the flashing neon signs outside, it seemed like a lively disco bar.
Sure enough, as soon as Su Chen and Lin Shuang'er stepped into the bar, the pounding music made their hearts feel like they were being hammered.
Lin Shuang'er didn't show any discomfort; instead, she looked excited, seemingly enjoying the atmosphere immensely.
Su Chen ordered a drink at the bar and quietly sat down by the counter.
But not Lin Shuang'er; she downed a cocktail in one go and then, like a wild horse, dove into the dance floor.
Sitting at the bar, Su Chen wasn't surprised as he sipped his drink, but his gaze inadvertently followed Lin Shuang'er, ensuring she stayed within his sight.
The exhilarating music in the disco bar drove people wild.
Lin Shuang'er moved her hips freely on the dance floor. The youthful and vibrant girl naturally drew attention and admiration, so as soon as she entered the dance floor, she caught many glances from men.
The lighting technician, being a man, naturally understood the psychology of men, and a red spotlight quietly settled on Lin Shuang'er.
Bathed in light, Lin Shuang'er danced even more energetically.
Nursing his drink, Su Chen caught sight of the spotlight and glanced disdainfully at the lighting technician but took no action.
Since he promised Lin Shuang'er a fun outing, he decided to let her enjoy herself, with no need to spoil her mood at a time like this.
Whether Su Chen was truly devastatingly handsome or whether his personality was magnetic, or perhaps he just seemed rich, a long-legged, wavy-haired girl with a drink in hand settled next to Su Chen.
A puff of cigarette smoke blew straight into Su Chen's face.
"Hi, handsome, haven't we met before?" She said, employing a clichéd pickup line.
But Su Chen leaned back slightly because the woman was blocking his view by sitting there.
"Hey, handsome, I'm talking to you." She reached out naturally to touch Su Chen's hand on the bar.
Suddenly, Su Chen's skin crawled.
Am I seriously being hit on here?
In fact, the woman sitting next to Su Chen wasn't very old; her facial features suggested she was at most thirty. She just wore her makeup far too heavily.
Making her look like she was around thirty-five or thirty-six.
"Please have some respect," Su Chen pulled his hand back and said coldly.
"Hehe..." Her words made the sultry woman burst into laughter.
"Not used to going out, handsome? Why so reserved—don't you want to buy me a drink? Maybe just one and I'll be down for the count, who knows?"
Her words were laden with innuendo, but Su Chen wasn't buying it: "I don't have the habit of buying drinks for others, besides..."
Su Chen eyed her critically: "Besides, you don't qualify."
The sultry woman froze slightly at Su Chen's words; she didn't expect him to be so blunt.
Despite Su Chen's outright rejection, she didn't back off and instead told the bartender, "Two cups of 'Love Without Regrets', on me for him."
The bartender smiled and began to mix the drinks.
Su Chen never paid her any attention, but the less he did, the more it piqued curiosity and a strange desire to conquer.
"What's the matter, handsome? Don't you find me attractive?"
"No, I don't."
The sultry woman: "..."
"Aren't you worried you'll hurt my feelings with such bluntness?" The sultry woman put on an expression of being hurt.
But all she got was Su Chen's cold and heartless reply: "Doesn't bother me if you're upset."
Even the most patient person couldn't take it anymore.
Her face turned cold: "I'm flirting with you as a favor, you really don't appreciate it?"
"Scram."
Su Chen spat out a single word.
If she'd had any real charm, Su Chen might have been interested in flirting a bit, considering he was out for fun. But with her looking like an old aunt and her figure falling apart, did she really expect him to show interest?
"Fine, remember this!" The sultry woman glared at Su Chen angrily.
She walked away in her sky-high heels, her not-so-slim waist swaying.
Meanwhile, on the dance floor, Lin Shuang'er had become the center of attention.
Cheers and shouts rose wave after wave. Lin Shuang'er seemed to revel in the moment, dancing her heart out.
A short while later, the song ended, and Lin Shuang'er, drenched in fragrant sweat, walked over to Su Chen.
"How was my dancing, brother-in-law?"
She shouted in his ear.
Su Chen smiled slightly and said, "Fantastic, didn't expect you to be so flexible."
Su Chen used a secret voice transmission technique to convey his words to Lin Shuang'er.
Upon hearing this, Lin Shuang'er's cheeks blushed. Was it just her flexibility?
"Are you two still interested in these drinks?" The bartender had the cocktails ready, but the sultry woman had already left.
After dancing so long, Lin Shuang'er was thirsty. Seeing the two colorful cocktails, her eyes lit up, and she reached to drink one down.
"Hang on..."
