It was ten at night, and a party was being held on the rooftop of a hotel.
Although it was cold outside, the venue was surrounded by glass. Hence, it was warm inside.
A bunch of beautiful women in provocative dresses had gathered around Nan Xing while coaxing him into drinking.
“Master Xing, it has been a while since we last met. Have you forgotten about me? I'm Jess Jenson!” A pretty lady approached him.
“Jenny? Do we know each other?” Nan Xing frowned.
“Not Jenny! It's Jess! You've even kissed me before...” Jess said with embarrassment.
There was no way Nan Xing would let her slander him so. Although he was a party animal, he wasn't one to kiss random girls.
Since he was someone of status, he knew people would keep an eye on him. In fact, a lot of them were eager to trick him and get a piece of the Nan family's fortune. If I were to kiss all of them, I would've been tricked countless times by now.
“Did I?” Nan Xing queried.
“Yes, you did! You kissed me here!” The pretty lady pointed at her left cheek.
“Bullsh*t. I'd never kiss girls on their left cheeks,” he answered.
Everyone present was stumped. Does Master Xing differentiate which side of the face he kisses? Why so? Is this a superstitious practice of his? Does the right cheek bring him luck or something?
“You're so mean, Master Xing. How could you deny kissing me?”
“He kissed me before as well! He kissed my right cheek!” another pretty lady exclaimed. After that, a few more girls followed suit.
“He kissed my right cheek too!”
“He did the same to me!”
Nan Xing was perplexed. Why would I kiss all of you on your right cheek? Have you girls seen yourselves? Would I even kiss any of you?
“All right. That's enough. I need some fresh air.” For some reason, he kept having a bad feeling all night long.
