"If you dare, I'll cut you..." Xiao Manxue was startled and threatened, clutching a dagger as if she was about to cut down.

But she hadn't finished her sentence when Lin Tian's lips were already pressed onto hers, with a "clang," the dagger in Xiao Manxue's hand fell to the ground, her eyes widened.

"Miss, you're so beautiful." Lin Tian slightly raised his head, brushed a strand of hair by her ear, and said softly.

"You big jerk, bullying me again!" Xiao Manxue glared at Lin Tian, reached out and gave him a punch, but it was soft and had lost its strength by the time it landed on Lin Tian.

Lin Tian grasped her fist, gently rubbed it, and said softly, "Miss, thank you."

Xiao Manxue was taken aback, looked up and asked, "Why are you thanking me?" Her words seemed somewhat baffling to her.

Lin Tian smiled slightly, and said, "I know, the reason Miss follows and questions me is because you're worried about me, afraid I'll get into trouble."

Xiao Manxue's face reddened, but she still pretended to be indifferent and snorted, "Don't flatter yourself, who's worried about you."

"Miss, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but I can't say anything until the time is right. But I promise you, no matter what I do, I will return safely. I can't just die easily because I can't bear to leave the beautiful Miss." Lin Tian looked into the Miss's eyes and spoke seriously.

"Hmph, who cares if you live or die." Xiao Manxue stubbornly snorted, but a smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Lin Tian shook his head and laughed, "Then, Miss, sneaking into my room in the middle of the night, were you trying to do something naughty?"

"You... you're the one being naughty. I actually have business with you. Who knew after knocking on your door for ages, no one would answer? I didn't know when you'd come back, so I waited in your room." Xiao Manxue hurriedly explained.

Lin Tian didn't expose her little thoughts, finding it amusing, he sat on the sofa and casually said, "What business does Miss have with me?"

"You're coming with me tomorrow to the jewel exhibition." Xiao Manxue directly said.

"This... might be difficult, I have an important task to complete." Lin Tian refused.

"Don't be in such a hurry to refuse, check the booklet on the bed and reply afterward." Miss spoke confidently.

Booklet? Lin Tian was curious, he walked over to the bed but before he saw the booklet, he noticed a semicircular imprint on the bed cover, which seemed to have been made by the female CEO sitting there.

Lin Tian instinctively glanced at Miss's back; the perfect curve matched the imprint. This little girl must have sat by the bed for quite some time.

There is a sofa in the room, but the little girl didn't sit on it; instead, she sat by the bed. What was she thinking? Xiao Manxue happened to see Lin Tian's gaze and also noticed the imprint on the bed cover, her face suddenly blushed.

The little girl has thin skin, Lin Tian didn't tease her but picked up the booklet left on the bedside by Miss.

"Is this the jewel exhibition booklet?" Lin Tian clarified the contents of the cover, couldn't help but ask.

"That's right, it is indeed the jewel exhibition booklet, recording all the jewels showcased in this exhibition. Turn to the fifth page and have another look." Xiao Manxue, back to her usual calm, reminded him.

Despite his curiosity, Lin Tian followed her instructions and turned to the fifth page. As soon as he saw the picture on the fifth page, his eyes narrowed. Because the jewel in the booklet caught his attention, it was too memorable.

"How come it's in the jewel exhibition too?" Lin Tian said in a deep voice.

The jewel in this picture turned out to be the Three Pure Ones Holy Realm Jade Carving, which was once auctioned for eighteen billion, but none of that mattered to Lin Tian. What mattered was that the owner of the Three Pure Ones Holy Realm Jade Carving is Charlotte!

Charlotte spent eighteen billion RMB to buy the Three Pure Ones Holy Realm Jade Carving, and now, this jade carving is going to be displayed at the jewel exhibition. The jade carving appeared, what about Charlotte? Will she show up?

Xiao Manxue carefully looked at Lin Tian's eyes, after a while she said, "I guessed right, you are indeed after Charlotte, seeing your eyes now, I know." The female CEO seemed to speak with some jealousy.

"I am indeed after Charlotte, but I can't tell you the specific reason. How did you get this booklet?" Lin Tian asked without explaining much.

"After losing track of you guys, I returned to the hotel soon afterward, and someone from the jewel exhibition organizing committee sent it over. When I saw this picture, I was even more surprised than you. This Charlotte, she is so daring to still appear in public." Xiao Manxue expressed her doubts.

"Why wouldn't she dare? Charlotte can change her appearance, even if she walks past you, you might not recognize her." Lin Tian disagreed with Miss's views. Charlotte's disguise technique, where did she learn it, or was it something all female Blood Clan could do?

Xiao Manxue thought for a moment and said, "So you're willing to accompany me to the jewel exhibition now?"

"Accompanying Miss to the jewel exhibition is my honor." Lin Tian smiled.

"Hmph, if it weren't for the Three Pure Ones Holy Realm Jade Carving, you'd probably still be refusing me." Xiao Manxue said irritably.

Lin Tian scratched his brow, saying, "Mainly because I'm not familiar with some upper-class noble's etiquette, I might make Miss lose face if I go."

"You don't need to worry about noble etiquette, this jewel exhibition is led by the England Royal Family. As long as you don't cause trouble, no one will give you a hard time." Miss didn't seem much interested in noble etiquette either.

Lin Tian raised a brow skeptically, no disturbances but if he really encounters Charlotte, maybe there'll be a battle, then who would care about the jewel exhibition?

"Since you've promised, I will return to my room now." Xiao Manxue glanced at the time and said.

She was about to open the door when Lin Tian calmly said, "Miss, if I were you, I wouldn't go out through the front door. Rossi has sharp ears, he would know you were in my room the moment you step out."

"Of course, Miss is a heroine among women, not concerned with worldly judgments, shadow doesn't slant when standing straight, even if someone finds out, it doesn't matter." Lin Tian exaggerated deliberately.

Even though he said so, Xiao Manxue's hand still withdrew. She looked at the leisurely Lin Tian, annoyed and said, "If not through the front door, where would you have me go?"

"Actually, there's no need to leave, tonight you could sleep on the sofa, I sleep in the big bed, wait until Rossi leaves tomorrow, then you can go." Lin Tian seriously proposed.

Xiao Manxue was quite furious, "Why should I sleep on the sofa and you on the bed?" The little girl thought this jerk is too shameless, no manners at all.

"Well, you could also sleep on the bed, it's big enough, I don't mind." Lin Tian restrained his laughter, finding this little girl too adorable to even realize.
