Saving the overbearing CEO

Chapter 30: First World: Enchantress

A dazzling goddess had descended right in front of them with the cool breeze gently blowing her smooth silky hair like a glamorous scene in a movie. Her beautiful curves and flawless porcelain skin would have any man worshipping at her feet. She revealed an enchanting smile tucking away the stray strands of her hair as she spoke to a vendor who seemed bewitched to the point of giving her all his goods for free. Her elegant graceful mermaid-like motion made Wen Qinxi drool over her, he was truly envious of Mr boss man over here. 'Lucky bastard,' thought Wen Qinxi rolling down his pants in a frenzy. He even staggered trying to put on his boots causing Qie Ranzhe to frown.

Qie Ranzhe's face was not looking good with all the blood drained from his face. For the second time today, he had guzzled down a year's worth of vinegar and it wasn't pleasant in the slightest. Watching Lin Jingxie excitedly put on his boots, Qie Ranzhe stood up and grasped his arm by the elbow asking, "Where do you think you are going? You brought me here but now you are just leaving?" as he glanced at the tanghulu that had long been discarded by Lin Jingxie.

"Who said I am leaving you here? Hurry up before she disappears," he replied handing Qie Ranzhe his boots before he darted off in the direction she had disappeared to. Qie Ranzhe nervously bit his lower lip while frantically putting on his boots before running after Lin Jingxie, even he had to admit she was drop-dead gorgeous. Though he seemed calm, Qie Ranzhe was panicking not sure how to handle this situation. If Lin Jingxie decided to make her his girl he wouldn't be able to deal with it.

The thought of that temptress kissing Lin Jingxie made him so angry that he couldn't let that happen, the only way that was happening was over his dead body. Its either he was going to sabotage Lin Jingxie or take that seductress down. Lin Jingxie belonged to him and him alone.

Back in the game room, Hei Bao walked in with two chilled energy drinks only to hear Xia Bai curse at the top of his voice, "Shit!" while looking at the screen.

Hei Bao scurried there with a panicked face asking, "What, what happened?" placing the cans down before adjusting his glasses scanning the screen.

"Qie Ranzhe's blackening value just shot up to 75% just like that. What the fuck did Wen Qinxi do?" he said pointing at the value that suddenly shot up like a mercury thermometer dipped in boiled water. The two men gazed at each other while initiating contact with Wen Qinxi in a panic. While all this was happening Jolie was enjoying the show wishing it had popcorn to go with it.

Wen Qinxi who was tailing the beautiful goddess Zhao Huangzhi in stealth mode suddenly had his mind flooded by voices loudly scolding him for compromising the mission but he could barely make out what they were saying as they were both talking at the same time like a bunch of pre-school kids. 'How the fuck am I supposed to know what's wrong when you are both talking at the same time?' he scolded them in his mind trying to make sense of what they were saying. All he heard was blackening and fast.

"Shut the fuck up Bao Bao, I will tell him," said Xia Bai placing his hand over Hei Bao's mouth before explaining to Wen Qinxi what had them all worked up, "Its Qie Ranzhe, his blackening value just shot up to 75% which is even higher than it was when you first entered the game. You better bring it down before it reaches a point of no return."

Wen Qinxi stopped peeping at Zhao Huangzhi at a jewellery stall and peered at the teenager crouching down next to him behind the bushes. Qie Ranzhe was tightening his mouth looking sickly pale with a resentful aura surrounding him. 'What the fuck,' said a flinching Wen Qi in his mind when he momentarily made eye contact with Qie Ranzhe's dark ice-cold phoenix eyes. 'Oh, l see what the problem is. The male god is drinking a bucket load of vinegar. He might have misunderstood the situation. He thinks I like Zhao Huangzhi thus explaining the blackening value. Let me fix it,' he replied in his head while nudging Qie Ranzhe.

"What do you think? You like her?" he asked leaning close in a whisper as they hid behind the bushes like a bunch of weird stalkers.

An itchy pleasant feeling lingered where Lin Jingxie warm breath grazed Qie Ranzhe skin but that wasn't enough to appease him answering in a cold tone, "Meh."

"Meh what? That could be your future wife aren't you supposed to be more excited instead your face looks like you just been hit by a truck. What more can l expect from a male god," he said still crouched down behind the bushes.

"Wait, what do you mean by my future wife? You dragged me all the way here because you like her," said Qie Ranzhe with a quizzical expression. He couldn't fathom what was going on in that smart brain of his.

"Hahaha, I don't stand a chance. Look at her she's a fox and only a man like you can grab her attention," explained Wen Qinxi patting the guy's shoulder twice while asking the boys in the game room for a report, 'Did it work?'

"Phew, it drastically dropped to 10%, that was a close call," said Hei Bao before signing out.

Hearing that, Qie Ranzhe was relieved with a suppressed smile on his face before asking, "Have you looked enough?" ready to continue with what they were doing before.

Wen Qinxi was stunned speechless by Qie Ranzhe's reaction, the guy seemed disinterested more eager to go back to eating tanghulu by the river bank. Something was definitely wrong with this picture. He couldn't help but wonder if Qie Ranzhe was a late bloomer in this teenage body but the Qie Ranzhe he remembered from high school enjoyed the company of teenage girls just as much as they loved his attention. Wen Qinxi crossed his fingers hoping Qie Ranzhe would get his act together otherwise they would never win this level.

He was about to stand up so they could go back but they were suddenly drenched in dirty water that had been used to gut fish. "Scram you perverts! Busy peeping on girls, you need a proper beating!" yelled a giant woman angrily waving around a fish scaler.

"Run," said Qie Ranzhe grabbing Lin Jingxie's wrist before dragged him along running away from the crazy lady. He could have easily dealt with her but cared more about holding Lin Jingxie's hand taking advantage of the situation like a pro.

"You cowards! You better run you fuckin pussies!" yelled the fishmonger struggling to chase after the two perverts. The sudden ruckus grasped Zhao Huangzhi's attention as she followed the fishmonger's line of sight. Her heart thumped when she saw a tall figure disappearing into the crowd.

"Miss are you okay," asked Zhao Huangzhi's servant out of concern for a dazed Zhao Huangzhi.

"I am fine," she replied finally snapping out of her trance while looking back hoping to see him again. She couldn't shake the feeling that she had finally met her match and could only hope to see him again.
