Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny - Chapter 12
In Beijiang, people’s views differed on which restaurant was the best.
However, if there was a place that ticked all the boxes, including food, entertainment, amenities, class, and elegance, the Dragon Emperor Tower was it. Even people from the capital would come and spend their money there.
On that day, the Dragon Emperor Tower’s driveway was packed with luxury cars. Important guests flooded the hotel.
A Mercedes slowly approached the front gate.
Even in that setting, the Mercedes stretch limousine carried an air of prestige that turned many people’s heads.
A doorman hastened to the car and opened its door politely.
The first to spring out of the car were two gorgeous little girls with pearly white complexions.
The girls, aged four to five, looked identical. Their features were perfect, like characters out of a comic book.
What an adorable and dainty pair of girls they were.
Women’s eyes gleamed as they looked at them, as if they couldn’t help but want to run up and lay their hands on them.
Next to step out of the car was a woman who exuded sheer elegance, like a wildflower in a valley. While she wore a simple skirt, her face was as pretty as a picture.
Many in the crowd were mesmerized by her beauty.
A few girls standing close to her put their hands over their mouths in awe and disbelief.
“Isn’t that Tang Xuan’er from our class?”
“Yes! That’s her! Isn’t she single? Whose kids are those?”
“Yikes, and to think she always acted as if she was better than everyone else. Who knew she’d end up as some rich man’s mistress?” said a pimpled girl with a cold laugh.
“There are only a handful of people in Beijiang who can afford such a car! Who could it be?”
Just when everyone was wondering the same thing, Xue An stepped out of the car.
His appearance caused quite a stir among the ladies.
“It’s Xue An!”
“Didn’t he go missing? When did he come back?”
“He’s got some nerve coming back, especially since Young Master Hong already warned him that he’d kill him!”
“Judging from his shabby clothes, he doesn’t seem loaded. He probably just rented the car to make himself look good!” said the girl with pimples again as she laughed meanly.
Her name was Song Jing. Callous, abhorrent, and extremely snobbish, she was one of her class’ top three b*tches, along with Zhang Yan and Du Juan.
“Hey look, Young Master Hong is going to welcome Ms. Fan, the starlet. This will be fun to watch!” The girls whispered among themselves in anticipation of a disaster.
“Papa, this place is so huge and pretty!” Xue Xiang exclaimed as she looked all around her.
“You think so? It’s alright, I guess. After this, Papa will take you somewhere really grand, you’ll see!”
Xue An was genuinely unimpressed, despite the fact that the Dragon Emperor Tower was said to have cost 500 million dollars to decorate. Even the main lobby was adorned with a ten-foot-long dragon statue cast from solid gold, hence the name, Dragon Emperor Tower.
Such extravagance was sure to turn an average person’s head.
But to an immortal lord who had seen monumental events, the place was a bit… tacky.
Back when he was in Corporeal Fairyland, thousands of dragons were slaughtered just for a regular banquet.
When the King of the Corporeal Fairyland invited Xue An to a banquet, he’d had ten Ancient Dragons butchered and served on platters made from phoenix bones.
No mere mortal could comprehend the type of indulgence he had experienced.
In fact, to Xue An, the much-hyped solid gold dragon was no different from a pig.
Unfortunately, his words had attracted dirty looks from the crowd.
One of them was a man with colorfully dyed hair who was holding a sexy woman in his arms. Having overheard Xue An’s comment, he cracked up in laughter.
“Who invited this country bumpkin? He sure talks big!”
Before Xue An could say anything, Xue Nian began to chuckle in amusement.
“What are you laughing at?” Like the big sister she was, Xue Xiang questioned her authoritatively with her hands on her waist.
“That man’s hair looks like a chicken’s nest!”
Upon hearing that, Xue Xiang gave the man a good look and entered a fit of laughter as well.
“It does look like a chicken’s nest!”
As the girls’ witty observation spread to the crowd, many began to laugh with their hands over their mouths.
Because… it really did look like a chicken’s nest.
The man’s face puffed up like a shiny red balloon as he tried to contain his rage. He shot a nasty look at Xue An before turning his back and marching off angrily.
Xue An smiled faintly. Small fries like him were seldom worth his time, but had the man taunted him further, Xue An would have had no qualms about turning his head into an actual chicken’s nest.
“Xuan’er, over here! Over here!” Song Jing called out to her. Her face, which had been cruel a moment earlier, was now filled with smiles.
Tang Xuan’er hesitated for a while before approaching her. “Song Jing, it’s been a while!”
“Tsk tsk, you don’t say. I didn’t know you had children! They’re so cute! Are they twins?” asked Song Jing.
Tang Xuan’er shook her head. “They’re not my children! They’re Xue An’s daughters.”
Even Xue An had children?
Song Jing and her gang looked at Xue An, who was standing not far from them, making no effort to hide the scorn in their eyes.
“Look at that scruffy outfit. He even brought his kids to the party.
“Surely, he must’ve been a failure!” they thought to themselves.
“Come, let’s go wait at Skyroom Number 1! Young Master Hong and the guys are going to welcome Ms. Fan, the starlet. She should be here any moment now!” said Song Jing as she dragged Tang Xuan’er along.
“What about Xue An?”
“Him? He can come with us if he wants to, but it’ll just be girls in the private suite.”
At that moment, Xue Xiang tugged at Xue An’s shirt surreptitiously.
Xue An bowed his head next to her and asked, “What is it?”
“Papa, I want to go to the bathroom!” said Xue Xiang, blushing.
“Me too! I want to go, too!” Xue Nian added.
“Uh… Okay, then!”
And with that, Xue An followed the girls to the private suite.
Skyroom Number 1 was the Dragon Emperor Tower’s most opulent and expensive private suite. It had to come with its own bathroom.
However, as soon as he entered the suite, all he could see was a sea of girls.
He hardly recognized any of them, and as for those whom he had vague memories of, he couldn’t remember their names.
“Isn’t he that guy from our class, Xue An?”
“It is him! Why isn’t he off to welcome Fan Mengxue?”
“Shh, stop asking. Young Master Hong will be here any minute!”
Xue An remained unperturbed amid all the whispers and gossip. He turned to Xue Xiang and Xue Nian and asked, “Can you go by yourselves?”
“Yep!”
Both the girls went into the bathroom, and Xue An stood by the door waiting.
Tang Xuan’er wanted to go to him, but each time she stood up, Song Jing had a different excuse for holding her back.
It was at that moment that all the girls in the room started to turn their eyes to him.
However, Xue An didn’t care. Seriously.
In Xue An’s eyes, these girls were average at best. Why would he care what they thought of him?
Moreover, Xue An’s mind was as peaceful as a sanctuary. His nonchalant demeanor naturally conveyed a sense of loftiness.
Not even the ridiculous fit of his clothes could obscure Xue An’s razor-sharp charisma.
Slowly… the girls’ chatter died down.
Back when he was a student, Xue An had been the school’s heartthrob, with many a girl falling victim to his charms.
But now, even dressed casually, he looked more handsome and confident than ever. He couldn’t help but feel as if he’d become a different person.
Xue An was naturally cognizant of his newfound allure, but he simply laughed at it.
When he was in Green Hill Fairyland, a twist of fate had led him to kidnap the Nine-Tailed Holy Lady—a decision which had earned him the wrath of the Fox Spirit clan and their pursuit for vengeance.
Not even the Nine-Tailed Holy Lady, who was an extraordinary beauty by any standard, was out of his league, never mind these bland, generic girls.
