《Return of the Soldier King》Chapter 35 Meeting Again
Advertisement
"What are you doing here?" Facing this beautiful woman, Ye Fei remained expressionless. Not because Liu Manman was not beautiful, but because he just didn't like her style.
"I should ask you the same. I come here a lot, but I’ve never seen you here before." Liu Manman smiled and raised her glass with a slender hand, "Cheers!"
Ye Fei smiled and took a little sip. When he put down his glass, he saw that she had emptied her whole glass of Hennessy.
"Hey, are you trying to make me lose face?" Liu Manman's cheeks flushed red, which only served to make her look more endearing. When she saw Ye Fei barely touch the glass with his lips, she felt a little peeved.
"The drinks here aren’t to my taste," Ye Fei shrugged. "If you come here often, you must be quite familiar with this place, right?"
"Of course," said Liu Manman. "Not only the Burning Bar; I'm familiar with all the nearby clubs. Why do you ask? Do you want me to take you to a better place? Sure, I can take you... But..." A hint of trepidation flashed in her eyes as she glanced over her shoulder.
"I was just wondering about Fire Dragon. You know him, right? Is he here tonight?" Ye Fei asked conversationally.
Liu Manman seemed to see something alarming somewhere on the noisy dance floor. She looked a little panicky, answering absently, "Fire Dragon? Sure, he’s here. I saw him upstairs just now."
"Thank you! You've been a great help." Ye Fei drained the glass of dark brown liquor and stood up, ready to go upstairs to meet Fire Dragon.
"Wait a minute." Liu Manman suddenly grabbed onto his arm, her chest tightly pressed against him.

Ye Fei froze. He only met this sexy woman twice and they had only exchanged a few casual words. What was she doing grabbing him?
Liu Manman's slender white arm draped around Ye Fei’s neck as she looked at him affectionately, sticking out her pink tongue to quickly lick her lips. Her sex appeal was irresistible.
Ye Fei was right. If these were ancient times, Liu Manman would be a dangerous beauty just like Daji and Bao Si.
A femme fatale.
It must be a lot of trouble to have a relationship with such a woman.
Still lost in that thought, Ye Fei suddenly felt a sweet and soft touch on his lips, mixed with the intoxicating bouquet of alcohol.
Incredibly, Liu Manman kissed Ye Fei in full view of the whole noisy and disorderly bar. The various guys casting discreet glances at her were so jealous they wanted to beat Ye Fei to a pulp.
“How could that son of a bitch get so lucky?!”
“Is he that hottie’s new boy toy?”
"He must be her boy toy!"
They wanted to be her boy toys too.
The sound of shattering glass rang out across the hall.
"You looking to die, you fucker? How dare you touch my girl?!"
A man in casual clothes angrily stomped over from the middle of the dance floor. He looked handsome, but his face was full of indignation. There was a broken beer bottle in his hand.
Ye Fei slowly pushed Liu Manman aside, staring sternly into her eyes. "What’s going on? Is he your boyfriend?"
Liu Manman's body trembled slightly, like a wounded fawn. "I... Ye Fei, please help me again. His name is Fang Mu and his dad is the CEO of the Heng Yuan Group. He’s a rich spoiled brat. I don’t like him, but he keeps harassing me because he thinks he’s God’s gift to women or something. Please, just get him to leave me alone! I will repay you."

Ye Fei frowned. "That’s none of my business!" He almost wanted to give her a piece of his mind.
He didn't know what happened between Liu Manman and the young man she called Fang Mu, but he knew he definitely didn’t want to get involved in their dispute.
Besides, he assumed she was just trying to play him.
A woman like Liu Manman was as cunning as she was beautiful. Any man who helped her because he coveted her beauty would fall deeper and deeper into her web until he was completely under her thumb.
Her act pissed Ye Fei off. Did she really think he was that much of a sucker? All she did was buy him a drink and now she expected him to offend the son of a powerful tycoon for her? Yeah, right!
Of course, Ye Fei was not actually afraid of offending Fang Mu. He just didn’t want to play along with Liu Manman’s tricks.
Did she think every man in the world would immediately lose his head over her because she was hot? Hardly.
Ye Fei chose to retreat. He pushed Liu Manman away and turned to leave.
Fang Mu thought Ye Fei was scared of him, so he allowed himself to become cocky. "Are you scared, you fucking coward? Stay where you are! I will make you bleed tonight!" he shouted.
The crowd of onlookers around them gave Ye Fei scornful looks.
"Ha-ha, what a coward!"
"What a shameless guy. Even if he’s afraid, he should at least put up a little resistance in front of his woman."
"Is he a man or not?"
"What did she even see in him?"
Ye Fei stopped in his tracks and shot a humorless glance at Liu Manman. She had this all planned out from the beginning.
He couldn't retreat.
And since he couldn't retreat...
Ye Fei had an idea. He was going to give this scheming woman a run for her money.

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.
