Wild Young Miss: Mister, Let's Kiss!

Walking towards the entrance, Zoey raised her hand to her shoulder level and meekly smiled towards the two men guarding the entrance. However, that mere gesture wasn't enough for Zoey to have access as both stepped closer to each other and blocked the entrance. 

"Uhm... why?" Stopping in her tracks, Zoey looked up as both men were tall. Since she wasn't wearing any fancy heels but mere black sneakers, Zoey had to look up. 

"You can't go inside." The man standing on the right explained briefly. 

"But... I am a guest." Maybe it was the lamest lie Zoey told in her life, but she didn't have a choice and could only try all methods she could. 

Both men sized Zoey from head to toe, before raising their chin up. They didn't say a word anymore, as if they got their answer just by looking at her. 

"You can ask Assistant Qian." Blinking her eyes many times, Zoey pointed her thumb to where Paul Qian headed. 

Earlier, when Zoey bumped into Paul Qian at the end of this corridor, these men surely saw him stopped and conversed with Zoey briefly. The other reason Zoey tapped Paul Qian's shoulder was to let these two guards think he knew her. 

As expected, the two guards looked down again. They indeed saw Paul Qian conversing with someone at the end of the corridor. He even bowed his head a little, before going and then Zoey came walking towards them. 

Just that thought alone, both guards had to think twice. After all, this lady before them might look cheap with her leather jacket, sneakers, and denim jeans. But, she could be a princess of a powerful family. 

Still, thinking that their boss was much more terrifying, both guards were in a dilemma. "Ahem. Miss, we have to ask the young master first. We apologize if you'll have to wait, but we're just following instructions." The guard on the right cleared his throat, deciding on what to do. 

His manner of speaking gradually changed; he sounded more respectful and vigilant. Zoey just nodded her head kindly, as she let them inquire if the people inside were waiting for another guest. Of course, Zoey knew the answer — they weren't.

Nodding their head, pleased that Zoey was confident that she was indeed a guest. The guard knocked on the door before opening it. 

However, as soon as he did, Zoey smoothly slid between the space and pushed the door wider. Her action caught the two guards off-guard as she was surprisingly swift. 

As soon as the door busted open, the few people inside suddenly enveloped in silence as they stopped in whatever they're doing. All eyes were suddenly on her. Zoey's eyes scanned the room and her eyes immediately detected the most handsome person inside. 

For a long time, Zoey heard her heart beat again. Her eyes stung, as the desire to run to his embrace heightened. However, before she could think further, she noticed that the people inside were on a pause, looking at her direction with their glasses in their hands. 

Zoey narrowed her eyes as Matthew Xi was holding a glass of wine. Since she assumed he was in this place for almost an hour, Zoey ground her teeth. 

"Miss, wait—!" When the guard snapped back to what was going on, he tried to reach for Zoey's arm but to no avail. Zoey swiftly avoided his hand and rushed towards the table. 

"Wa — wait!" Kenneth Bai, witnessing a beautiful lady sprint her way towards them, widened his eyes as the woman seemed to be mad. 

Meanwhile, the 23-year-old Matthew Xi furrowed his brows. He watched Zoey stopped before him and she perked her chin up. "You," Her voice sounded nice, in his opinion. Although her tone had a touch of annoyance?

"Hey, who are you?! Do you know what kind of room you've intruded in?!" In utter disbelief at the audacity of the woman for calling Matthew Xi 'you', Kenneth Bai jolted from his seat and pointed his hand towards Zoey. 

Glaring at the men who should be guarding the door, Kenneth Bai shouted. "What are you doing?! Get her out here!" He ordered, snapping both guards out of their wits. 

"Did you drink that?" Unfazed by Kenneth Bai's whining, Zoey stared at her husband in her heart straight in the eye. 

Matthew Xi blinked his eyes once slowly. Although he didn't know her, he found her quite interesting for asking such a question. "No." Hence, he answered. 

Upon answering her, Matthew Xi arched his right brow as he definitely saw her sigh in relief. Shortly after, she suddenly snatched the glass of wine from him. 

At the same time, the guards approached Zoey. However, for some reason, Matthew Xi's hand raised involuntarily and halted the two guards. 

"Even a little?" Still staring at him, Zoey inquired. Her voice was rather calm and familiar, as if she knew him from inside and out. 

Matthew Xi didn't answer anymore. Yet, she understood his silence which was quite amusing. "Good." She answered, nodding her head before slowly shifting her head towards Kenneth Bai. 

Zoey's calm visage instantly changed, as if her eyes could pierce Kenneth Bai's soul as she ground her teeth. "You!" Unlike her gentle remark towards Matthew Xi, Zoey was more aggressive as she suddenly pulled Kenneth Bai's collar towards her. Her foot stepped on the small table.

"Wa! What do you think you're doing?!" Surprised as he was caught off-guard, Kenneth Bai tried to push Zoey but he didn't want to hurt women. Still, he could tell that her strength and foundation was firm as she was able to pull him towards her. 

However, despite Zoey's rash action, the two guards didn't take any action as Matthew Xi halted them. Everyone around the table watched the woman, their eyes wavered with curiosity about the reason behind her actions. 

Most of them assumed she was one of Kenneth Bai's crazy ex-girlfriend. After all, that's the only thing that could make sense to enrage a woman like her. 

"Will you drink this?" Staring at Kenneth Bai dead in the eye, Zoey raised the glass of wine she snatched from Matthew Xi as her right brow arched. 

"Huh?" Kenneth Bai blinked his eyes many times, darting his gaze from the wine to Zoey before a horrified expression plastered across his face. 

His reaction, of course, made Matthew Xi knit his brows as he frowned. By the looks of it, Kenneth Bai had a hidden agenda for forcing him to drink by using an excuse that 'it was his birthday and he is his dear childhood friend.' 

"What did you put in it?" Bearing a frown, Matthew Xi was quick to realize the woman's point. Therefore, without further ado, he asked while Kenneth Bai ghastly turned his head to face him despite being held by the collar by Zoey. 

"Ha ha, bro, I — I" Stuttering, Kenneth Bai pondered on what kind of excuse he would tell Matthew Xi as his plan was spoiled by this unknown lady!

"You what, huh? Are you going to lie, aisht!" Zoey shook his collar forward and backward, clicking her tongue in annoyance as she wanted to smack him in the head to teach this naughty Kenneth Bai a lesson.
