Venerable Demon King & The Doting Immortal (QT) novel Chapter 187

Chapter 187: Master looks pretty.

Han Xin, who had been typing on his phone, froze, listening in. Xiang Yu corrected her, "No, I am a single dad."

The woman’s eyes shone with interest. "Which school are they going to?"

"Ridgeview Academy," Xiang Yu replied. It was the prestigious school where politicians and the wealthy sent their kids, thanks to old Song’s connections. For the girls’ safety, he preferred the most secure school money could buy.

The woman’s eyes beamed. "What a coincidence! My Yeiju is going to the same school. Here, let me add you to the parent group. It’s mostly filled with moms, but since you’re their only parent, I can add you."

Xiang Yu smiled and took out his phone, swiping away the annoying notifications on his lock screen. He scanned the code and added her on WeChat. "Done," she said after adding him. She suddenly remarked, "Too bad I am married. A lot of single moms are going to love you."

Xiang Yu chuckled, finding it amusing. The woman then said, "Is it me, or did it get a little chilly? They said the weather would be good today. What’s going on?"

Xiang Yu didn’t feel the chill but noticed clouds gathering outside despite the forecast for a sunny day.

Han Zhan sat opposite Little Bai in the coffee shop, an evil smile playing on his lips. He hadn’t invited Little Bai just for coffee; he had a more insidious purpose. He wanted Little Bai to spill the tea on Xiang Yu. Unaware of the true reason for the meeting, Little Bai sipped his iced coffee, a new experience for him.

"So, do you like it?" Han Zhan asked, his voice smooth.

Little Bai nodded, sucking on the straw. Han Zhan’s smile widened, revealing his sharp canine teeth. "So, what does Xiang Yu do in his spare time, other than going to the Pink Cherry?"

Little Bai choked on his drink, coughing violently. Han Zhan handed him a paper towel, his smile never wavering. Why did Han Zhan care about Xiang Yu’s free time? It was his job to know everything about the people working for Han Xin. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}

Little Bai wiped his mouth, his eyes wary. "Why are you asking this?"

Han Zhan shrugged, taking a leisurely sip of his coffee. He knew more than he let on, even about Peng Xiu’s secret body pillow of Han Xin, though he had never mentioned it to his cousin. "I don’t think it’s appropriate to tell you about Yu-ge," Little Bai said cautiously.

"Okay," Han Zhan replied, seemingly unfazed. But later on as they left the coffee shop to join the others for dinner, Little Bai was unusually quiet, the weight of the conversation lingering in his mind.

Lian and Mei were bubbling with excitement as they left the hair salon, their new haircuts bouncing with each step. "Master, do we look pretty?" they asked in unison, their eyes wide with anticipation.

Xiang Yu smiled sweetly. "Yes, you look very pretty," he assured them.

Mei glanced at Xiang Yu’s freshly manicured nails. "Master, your nails are so pretty! They look like mine."
