After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 256: Chapter 256: Seeing the World

It’s precisely because this kid is so talented in the field of scientific research, and the Fourth Master in his family is also interested in this area, that he keeps indulging him like this.

"Come on, once we finish work, we have to relax a little, don’t we?" Qin Chi Jin said with a smile.

Cheng Lie glanced at him, then gave a simple "Mm" in response.

He picked up the glass of red wine in front of him and began to drink.

Seeing the young man playing along, Qin Chi Jin’s smile widened with satisfaction.

"By the way, you’ve been in Beijing for almost half a year now. Are you getting used to it? I’ve noticed that aside from work, all you do is stop by dessert shops. Don’t you have any other recreational activities?"

"Not necessary." He had already become accustomed to this monotonous and tedious lifestyle, which suited him just fine.

"You kid!" Qin Chi Jin said, exasperated.

But when he thought about the boy’s life over the past decade or so, he figured that this kind of indifference was pretty normal for someone like him.

For an average person to survive in a family like the Cheng Family was already no small feat.

Soft music played in the private room, and beautiful women were singing and dancing. They sat to the side, watching the performance.

The atmosphere grew livelier. One of the women even stepped down from the stage and nestled against Qin Chi Jin, her voice saccharine sweet: "Fourth Master, who’s this?"

"This is a young friend. I brought him here to broaden his horizons."

"Broaden his horizons? That’s wonderful." The woman shot a flirtatious glance at Cheng Lie.

Her sultry gaze was potent enough to weaken any typical man’s resolve.

Unfortunately, Cheng Lie simply gave her an icy look.

What a block of ice.

The woman, however, became even more intrigued.

The boy in front of her was youthful, aloof, and carried a trace of melancholy.

He was dressed in a black shirt with the top button undone, revealing his collarbones. His face was pale, yet his delicate features were striking. Against the multicolored lighting, his face lit up like fireworks in the night sky. Yet his cold, sharp eyes shone like frosty stars—intense and piercing.

This paradoxical aura enchanted the woman. She thought, surely any man who came to a club like this must want to "experience" the scene, right?
