Ep - 19. Surprise Visit

"I'm not joking. Stop asking me to help you gain points. It is killing me!"

Sophia jumped off the sofa she was sitting. She then stretched her body and yawned tiredly.

Taking a look at their rankings, Andrew Qin and Sean Xiao nodded their heads in satisfaction.

"You've done well, Sophia. You promised to take us up to Top 50. But we are now on Top 15. I'll compensate you for this. You can order buns for breakfast. I will pay,"

Sean Xiao said as he brought out his wallet.

Sophia collected the wallet. Irritated, she used it to slap his muscular chest.

"Am I only worth some steamed stuffed buns? I want to have a full course meal this morning!"

Upon hearing her words, Sean Xiao yawned tiredly and said,

"Alright. You can have whatever you want. Your wish is my command. The phone is over there. Just make the order. Permit Andrew and me to sleep for a while."

She kicked them playfully. Afterwards, she picked her phone and was about to call take-out.

However, just as she located the phone number of the restaurant, the doorbell rang. At that instance, she narrowed her eyes and arched her eyebrows. Kicking Sean Xiao, she said,

"Hey, get the door. This is your home."

He moved his eyelids slightly. However, he didn't open them Dizzily, he responded,

"That should be Michael. You can let him in. I rarely receive visitors Please get the door.."

Sophia gave him a devilish stare Shaking her head, she walked to the door Before answering it, she said,

"Mr. Michael Zhang, hold on a minute."

Immediately after she said this, the ringing stopped. Without hesitating, she opened the door.

Alas! She met a shocker waiting at the other side. Cold shivers suddenly ran down her spine. She couldn't think straight.

The man stared back at her. He was dressed in a well-fitted and expensive black suit. His poise was cold and frigid.

"Mr. Xiao... Xiao... Sir?"

His face didn't read any expression. However, Sophia was finding it difficult to breathe. The air had suddenly felt thin.

The sound of broken pieces of ice and glass crashing to the ground suddenly seemed to ring in her ears.

Lately, Vincent Xiao just seemed to pop up around her.

Placing her hand on her forehead, she looked down at her lower body.

Geez! She was poorly dressed. Her appearance was disgraceful.

Last night, when she played the game, she was uncomfortable in her clothes. She had to borrow Sean Xiao's basketball uniform.

Now, standing in front of Vincent, she feared that he would misunderstand the whole scenario.

"Sophia, who is it?"

Andrew Qin walked towards the door holding a glass of water.

When he saw Vincent Xiao, he choked and spat out the water. He was terrified and he couldn't fake calmness.

"Mr. Xiao!..."

Instantly, Vincent noticed that Andrew Qin was also in a basketball uniform He eased the wrinkles on his face and said,

"Are you all here?"

Sophia nodded her head like a robot She then ushered him inside and answered,

"Yes, yes. The three of us played games together last night. "

As he walked into the building, Vincent Xiao caught glimpse of the snacks and beer bottles lying untidily on the table. He went ahead to sit on one of the sofas.

It was the same one Sophia had sat on last night.

"You didn't sleep last night?"

Vincent asked Sophia He seemed to be curious to know how and where she slept.

Nervously, she scratched the back of her head. Using her other hand, she pinched Sean Xiao on his cheeks. He was sleeping on another sofa.

Lazily, Sean struggled to open his eyes, but he couldn't. Instead, he grabbed Sophia's hand and said,

"I've told you. Order whatever you want. I can afford it!"

At that moment, Vincent Xiao felt a pang of jealousy in his heart. He coughed slightly and said with a cold voice,

"Sean Xiao!"

After he heard that familiar voice calling his name, Sean's senses suddenly became alert. His eyes shot open and he let go of Sophia's hand.

Within a split second, he sat up. Looking at the man on the sofa, he asked with respect,

"Why are you here?"

Vincent Xiao answered plainly,

"Your father asked me to check up on you."

Hearing this, Sean Xiao immediately stood uprightly. When he noticed that Vincent Xiao was staring at Sophia, he explained,

"Oh, meet Sophia She's my friend from the entertainment circle."
