It was already evening when Liu Xun and Li Jiarong finished shopping in the mall. During this time, Liu Xun kept checking his body. He found that after the essence and blood of the God Emperor merged into his body, the backlash force had almost completely dissipated.
Although I cannot use all of my skills now, it is only a matter of time before I recover.
The next morning, celebrities from all walks of life gathered at Li Jiarong's birthday party. From their attitude towards Li Jianming, it can be seen that the Li family is indeed a family with a pivotal position in the business world.
Compared with the social engagements of Li Jianming and Li Jiaxin, Liu Xun seemed to be more free. Although he could do these things, he really didn't have the energy for it now.
After coming into contact with the civilization of gods and demons and learning some secrets of mythology, Liu Xun no longer cared about these things. It was not that he looked down on business, but the two were from different worlds and could not be compared at all.
"Jiarong, happy birthday." Celebrities from all walks of life talked to Li Jianming and Li Jiaxin, while Li Jiarong's classmates and friends gathered around her to congratulate her.
Liu Xun glanced around and shook his head secretly. He felt that he couldn't get a word in at all, as if he couldn't keep up with the trend. He could only pick up a glass of red wine and taste it alone.
In fact, after being accustomed to drinking ancient Chinese wine, tasting Western wine reminded Liu Xun of the foreign wine he drank after a battle with a foreign country. This Western wine was similar to the foreign wine. Although it tasted good, he thought it was not as good as Chinese wine.
To put it in an analogy, Western wine is like a big girl, giving you a sweet feeling. Although it has a strong aftertaste, there is nothing worth savoring. But Chinese liquor is different. Its dry and spicy flavor reflects a person's life, which includes bitterness, dryness, bitterness, and passion, and often makes people savor it.
"Jiarong, do you have a boyfriend? If not, just accept Wang Shaodong." At this moment, a beautiful girl said to Li Jiarong jokingly, and immediately the people around them followed suit.
"Stop messing around, I already have a boyfriend." Li Jiarong glanced in Liu Xun's direction for some reason and said in a serious tone. But Liu Xun saw doubts in the eyes of the people around him, and it was obvious that she often used this reason to refuse.
"By the way, where is Wang Shaodong? Why isn't he here? It's not in his style to not come to his goddess' birthday." Someone among Li Jiarong's classmates shouted this.
Liu Xun glanced at the words and laughed. He took a sip of red wine and said casually, "It's quite romantic..."
The words were neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to reach Li Jiarong. But except for Li Jiarong, everyone ignored Liu Xun. After all, Liu Xun was not very good-looking, and the scar on his left eye made these rich kids feel disgusted.
However, just when Li Jiarong was puzzled by Liu Xun's words, ninety-nine children aged seven or eight suddenly walked out of the door, each holding a red rose in their hands. The first nine children held one rose, the next nine children held nine roses, and so on.
The sudden scene made the business elites present look stunned, but they soon understood something and shook their heads and smiled. Li Jiarong's female classmates also looked at her with great envy.
Outside the door, a handsome young man in his twenties walked in slowly, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. Li Jiarong was a little embarrassed at this time and glanced at Liu Xun. Only now did she understand the meaning of Liu Xun's words.
Liu Xun knew that the young man was Wang Shaodong. He was just watching this scene with interest. However, Li Jiarong did not have Liu Xun's calm demeanor. She said anxiously, "You... don't come over. I really have a boyfriend."
After saying this, Wang Shaodong shook his head and said sternly: "Jiarong, you have rejected me for this reason no less than ten times, how can I still believe it?"
Liu Xun smiled when he heard this, and recalled the scenes of his youth in his mind.
"Really, it's him." Li Jiarong was obviously not happy with Wang Shaodong, so she pointed at Liu Xun. At this time, the incident here had been noticed by everyone present, so everyone's attention was also shifted to Liu Xun.
Liu Xun took a deep breath and frowned. Since this woman wanted to play, why not accompany her? He raised the red wine glass in his hand to everyone as a greeting, and then slowly walked towards Li Jiarong.
When Liu Xun came to Li Jiarong, Li Jiarong hugged Liu Xun and pinched his waist fiercely. She looked unhappy and said softly: "You are such an incompetent boyfriend. You don't know how to help me out."
Liu Xun shook his head and smiled, then turned to the dazed Wang Shaodong and nodded, chuckling, "Sorry, I acted a little too fast, you don't stand a chance."
At this point, he glanced at the flowers and then said, "Oh, by the way, this cost a lot of money, right? Let's see if we can refund it."
After the words were spoken, a few people around chuckled. Liu Xun actually had no ill intentions and it was just a joke, but Wang Shaodong's face darkened.
Liu Xun made a miscalculation because of the difference in times. Although face was important in his generation, what they valued most was capital. But Wang Shaodong's generation was different. Compared to capital, they wanted face, so he thought Liu Xun was insulting him.
"Why should a poor boy like you worry about me buying flowers? If not, you can take them back to your mother as funeral flowers?" Wang Shaodong looked at Liu Xun with disdain, spewing bad words. Even the people present did not expect that a young man who was so sunny and handsome just now would actually say such words.
After he finished speaking, Liu Xun smiled and narrowed his eyes. People who didn't know Liu Xun well thought he was smiling, but those who knew him a little better would know that he wanted to kill someone at this moment.
When Liu Xun wanted to kill someone, he never cared what the other person was like, even if he was an old man who was powerless. But as long as he crossed his bottom line, his fate would be only one, and that was death.
There is no doubt that parents are the bottom line hidden deep in Liu Xun's heart.
Li Jiarong was also slightly stunned after hearing this. Obviously, she did not expect Wang Shaodong to say such a thing. She was about to scold Wang Shaodong, but Liu Xun's words had already come.
"Choose a way to die." Liu Xun said with a chuckle, but no one around him thought he was joking, because just now, the temperature in the whole room dropped significantly, and a solemn and murderous atmosphere filled everyone's heart.
People today have never seen true murderous intent. This is an aura that is psychologically irresistible. Except for a few business elites, everyone else felt like they were in an icy cave, sweating all over. Especially Wang Shaodong, his face was extremely pale at this moment. In his eyes, Liu Xun was like a Shura from hell, who could take his life at any time. (To be continued)
