Ultimate Goddess System 27 1.1.27: Liar

Zhou Lang tried to stop her, but she shook her head. Before she left, she said, "You mock those that do such a so-called 'dirty-job' of prostitution, but you have no idea how small minded you are."

Zhou Yaoyao's eyes widened in anger, and before she could retort, Xiao Yunhua continued to speak. "In this time of day, people that aren't privileged and didn't grow up spoiled like you... resort to means of survival. And yet you foolishly mock them. Disgusting."

She turned to Zhou Lang, who was stunned by her words along with everyone else, and bid him adieu.

When she closed the living room door, a heavy atmosphere filled the former, joyous Zhou family. For such a young girl to mock them like so, had they truly been too arrogant and ignorant.

"Lang'er," Zhou Elder finally spoke and broke the silence, "politely invite your girlfriend back for dinner before she completely leaves."

"But grandfather—" Zhou Yaoyao's shocked voice began to whine, but Zhou Elder harshly interrupted and rebuked, "Yao'er, enough. To be reprimanded by a stranger has already make me disappointed in you for today."

"Then why are you inviting that whore back to disrupt our dinner?" She angrily fired back, not realizing that she was digging a deeper hole for herself. Zhou Elder looked at Zhou Eldress in disappointment for letting their grandchild behave like so.

Not withstanding such a look from her husband, Zhou Eldress frowned and glared at her daughter, Zhou Hua, for spoiling Zhou Yaoyao to such lengths. Zhou Hua flinched from receiving such a harsh look from her mother and averted her eyes in embarrassment.

At that moment, Zhou Feng's phone rang with an incoming call. Shooting an apologetic call to everyone there, he stood up to go outside, but Kang Yiyi stopped him.

"Feng'ge, you shouldn't go outside." She gripped on his arm childishly. In reality, she knew that Xiahu Yunhua was still roaming outside, hence not wanting her fiancé to find her. She, along with everyone else that wasn't blind, had seen the way that the two eyed each other when they saw each other. And for the first time since Kang Yiyi first knew Zhou Feng, she saw that his cold eyes flashed with a new emotion.

Curiosity and something else that she didn't recognize. But that something else had made her heart thump wildly, as though the organ sensed danger. And that danger was pointed at the flawless beauty, Xiahu Yunhua.

Zhou Feng's eyes were cold enough to freeze Hell over when he felt her tightly gripping his arm. Releasing her grip harshly, he left, mercilessly ignoring her cries for him to stop and wait.

Now left in the scrutinization of the entire Zhou family, minus a few, Kang Yiyi's cheeks warmed with embarrassment. She, the young miss of the Kang family, had never been embarrassed like so. Seeing her fiancé treat her so harshly only made her harden her resolution to make him fall for her.

After all, he wasn't going to be cold forever. They had an eternity to spend together once they tied the knot, so sooner or later, Kang Yiyi was sure that he would accept her.

Meanwhile Xiao Yunhua didn't know that Zhou Lang was looking for her nor that Zhou Feng was no longer with the rest of the family. She had been too busy trying to find her way out of the gigantic mansion.

Even though she had seen the mansion before, she had never expected for the mansion to be so large. Even worse, there were security guards, most hidden, everywhere. If it weren't for her enhanced senses, she would've never known about any of them. The sheer authority that the Zhou family portrayed astonished her. It seemed like they weren't the top family for no reason.

Xiao Yunhua cursed those movies that made dramatic exits easy. In reality, once a dramatic speech was given to someone, it was hard to find one's way out. And that was exactly her situation at the moment.

Finally, a few minutes later, she saw the door that they had used to enter the mansion. She remembered that it was this door because of her photographic memory. Speaking of her photographic memory, she wanted to facepalm because she could've paid attention when the maid brought them in to memorize the directions.

Unfortunately, she had been too busy doing who knows what, hence the current dilemma. Luckily, it was almost over as she reached for the door—she paused.

It seemed like a hand had beat her to it. The hand belonged to a muscular, similar man with gorgeous features. The hand belonged to her current target, Zhou Feng, who was assessing her like she was assessing him.

It was like the previous scene all over again, yet missing the Zhou family members. It was just the two of them.

Xiao Yunhua gulped and saw that his eyes had followed that movement. His other hand held his ringing phone, but he didn't seem to pay any attention to it at the moment; almost like it was important enough to compare to their moment.

Finally, a few seconds that felt like a century later, Xiao Yunhua cleared her throat. "I need to leave."

Zhou Feng raised an eyebrow until he realized that he stood in the way of the exit. But even at that revelation, he surprisingly didn't move.

"Don't I know you?" His deep voice finally spoke, still cold yet fringed with a hint of warmness.

"No." She quickly denied, faster than she meant to. Of course, he heard her fast response and obvious sign of lie.

"You're lying." His words weren't said as a question, but more as a statement. Like he was positive that she was.

And in reality, she really was.

"No, you've mistaken me for someone else." She answered monotonously, avoiding his eyes with a flustered expression. These signs were the obvious signs that she was denying and lying.

"Riverside." One word and her face paled...
