Chapter 62: Watching the Younger Generation Tournament
As the days passed, Glory City saw the return of the Holy Orchid Institute's students, including Nie Li, marking the impending Younger Generation Tournament, an event orchestrated by the Sacred Family.
Alan, typically unfazed by such competitions, couldn't resist a smug grin when he heard of Nie Li's participation. He leaned over to Shen Xiu and spoke with an air of intrigue, "Shen Xiu, it seems we have an interesting event to attend. Let's go and see how Nie Li fares in this tournament."
Shen Xiu, clad in a more refined attire than her usual attire, nodded in agreement. "Certainly, Alan. It could be quite an entertaining spectacle."
Upon their arrival at the tournament, they found that Nie Li had already emerged victorious in the first round, defeating Shen Yi, a member of the Sacred Family. As the organizers led them to a luxurious viewing room, Alan remarked, "Looks like we arrived just in time to see the show. They even prepared special seats for us."
Sitting high above the bustling arena, Alan and Shen Xiu settled into their ornate chairs. They overheard the animated conversations of enthusiastic betters placing their wagers on the competitors. Alan couldn't help but comment, "Seems like there's a lot of money changing hands today."
His sharp gaze swept through the crowd, and he soon spotted Yang Xin among the members of the Heavenly Marks Family. He whispered to Shen Xiu, "Look over there, Shen Xiu. Yang Xin is with the Heavenly Marks Family. They must be concerned about Nie Li's safety considering that this tournament is organized by our family."
Shen Xiu nodded in agreement and spoke with a snort, "They must be concerned about us interfering with them. They truly overestimate themselves."
Alan, with a sly grin, responded, "This shows that they are taking this tournament very seriously."
In the midst of their engrossing observation of the tournament, a sudden commotion outside their VIP room disrupted Alan and Shen Xiu's focus. It seemed that some guards were engaged in a heated dispute with a woman who was attempting to enter the VIP area.
The woman in question was none other than Huyan Lanruo, a secret mistress of Alan, with whom he shared an intimate and sexual relationship. She had come with the expectation of meeting Alan at the tournament, assuming that he would be present, considering it was organized by the Sacred Family.
Shen Xiu, while maintaining her poised demeanor, observed the unfolding scene with intrigue, her interest stirred by the unexpected turn of events.
As the guards sternly prevented Huyan Lanruo from entering the VIP room, she persisted in her attempts to convince them, her voice laced with determination. "Please, you have to let me through. I need to speak with Alan. He's in there, I know it."
The guards, resolute in their duty, remained steadfast, causing Huyan Lanruo's frustration to mount. She wasn't accustomed to being denied what she wanted.
While all this transpired, a commanding voice from within the VIP room cut through the tension, issuing an authoritative order. "Allow her entry."
Huyan Lanruo's heart soared as she heard that voice, transforming her face from one of irritation to pure elation. She seized the opportunity and swiftly moved past the guards who now stepped aside.
Inside the VIP room, Alan observed her arrival with amusement, a playful smile gracing his features. "Well, look who's decided to join us."
Huyan Lanruo's eyes sparkled with delight as she replied, "I couldn't resist the temptation of seeing you, especially in a place like this."
Shen Xiu, standing nearby, observed the interaction with a knowing smile, a hint of curiosity in her gaze.
In the VIP room, Alan extended a courteous invitation. "Please, have a seat."
Huyan Lanruo's eyes darted around the room, searching for an available chair. Her quizzical look didn't go unnoticed by Alan. He responded with a sly, charming smile, and made a subtle gesture toward his lap.
Her eyes widened in surprise at the bold suggestion. She instinctively glanced at Shen Xiu, as if seeking some reaction, some form of permission, or perhaps a halt to what was being suggested.
Alan, however, leaned back casually, his gaze fixed on Huyan Lanruo, and he spoke reassuringly. "Don't worry about my aunt. She doesn't mind."
It was the nudge of encouragement she needed. Huyan Lanruo gathered her resolve and took a step forward, her slender form gracefully settling onto Alan's lap. His arms enveloped her, and he remarked with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "It's been a while, hasn't it?"
A faint blush graced her cheeks, but Huyan Lanruo responded with a sultry smile. "I've been looking forward to it."
Their intimate conversation continued in the VIP room, focusing on shared moments and their connection.
In the midst of their private conversation, Alan briefly glanced at the ongoing tournament matches below. His sharp eyes noticed Nie Li's choice to integrate with the Fox Spirit Demon Spirit, a Gold Rank spirit with an Ordinary growth rate. Alan couldn't help but comment, "Looks like Nie Li won the second match as well."
Huyan Lanruo, fully immersed in the moment, couldn't help but inquire, "What are you looking at, dear?"
Alan chuckled, his gaze returning to her, "Nothing important. Now, where were we?"
As they continued their intimate conversation, the Younger Generation Tournament carried on below, its significance momentarily eclipsed by the warmth and connection they shared in the VIP room.
Huyan Lanruo couldn't help but voice her complaint, "You spend so much time with that Xiao Ning'er, but hardly any with me."
Alan, with a calm and sly tone, responded, "Xiao Ning'er is my lover, while you are my plaything and mistress. You should know your place."
Huyan Lanruo, though slightly disappointed by Alan's straightforward admission, couldn't deny that she still enjoyed these intimate moments with him. She whispered softly, "As long as I have you, that's enough for me."
During their conversation, Huyan Lanruo's gaze occasionally darted towards Shen Xiu, a silent observer of their exchange. She couldn't help but wonder what Alan's aunt might say about their candid conversation.
To her surprise, Shen Xiu remained completely silent, her expression unchanged.
In the midst of their whispered words and affectionate exchanges, Alan's lips brushed against Huyan Lanruo's neck, and he reassured her, "You don't need to worry about my aunt."
Their intimate moment continued, cocooned in the VIP room, where the outside world seemed to fade away.
