Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

The dining table was covered with a snow-white silk cloth. Several stalks of white roses were displayed in the center of the table.
Pure white tassels hung at the ends of the tablecloth, showing luxury in simplicity.
Under the illumination of the magnificent chandelier, everything seemed perfect. The strong fragrance of roses in the air calmed
one’s spirits.
After placing their orders, both individuals removed their coats and hung them at the back of their chairs, leaving only their shirts.
Both were dressed in white. They felt more like a couple now.
“Have you memorized what I taught you yesterday? Have you forgotten them?” Xyla initiated the conversation.
“Yeah,” he replied faintly, toying with a black mirror finish lighter in one hand.
His fingers were extremely nimble. No matter how he toyed with it, the lighter never fell.
Since he had exceptionally slender and charming fingers, his playing with the lighter attracted more attention. It was a seemingly
ordinary lighter, but it seemed more expensive than its worth when he toyed it in his hand.
For a brief moment, Xyla was lost in a daze as she watched.
He looked calmly at her before snapping his fingers at her. “What are you thinking about?”
Then, Xyla regained her senses. She looked at his incredibly charming face and simply changed the subject. “I’ll now brief you
on my family’s situation. My father is a very healthy man, but he has gastroenteritis regulated by taking medicine all year long.”
“My stepmother has a cold constitution like me, but her condition is even more severe. She, too, is regulating it by taking
medicine constantly.”
“Although I know you’ll be able to tell, I still wanted to brief you on it I assume that Ernily would quiz you on them to see if you’re
lying,” Xyla added.
“Okay...”
“As for Tom Sullivan, who will soon marry Emily, he doesn’t have any illness and has always been in great health.”

“Tom’s mother and sister are healthy as well. Besides his legs being disabled, his older brother, Julian Sullivan, doesn’t have any
other illness. His father has diabetes,” Xyla continued to brief him seriously.
“Oh...”
“Did you remember them all?”
“Yeah.”
Vrrt, vrrt, vrrt. As they talked, his phone suddenly vibrated. It was a WeChat message from Zack.
“Fifth Master, I’ve purchased the house for you and had it cleaned and decorated according to your instructions. Shall I pass you
the keys tomorrow?”
Stanley did not reply but placed the phone faced-down as he looked at her again.
“Oh, right. I forgot to bring your clothes. Are you free tomorrow night? If you are, I’ll return it to you when we meet.”
“Sure.”
“Let’s finish up early today. The mall will be closing at ten, so let’s head over to the mall around nine.” Xyla’s voice was tender as
usual.
“What for?” He raised an eyebrow, staring curiously at Xyla’s face.
“I want to buy you a suit to wear at her wedding,” answered Xyla.
“Ohh...”
Vrrt, vrrt. His phone vibrated again.
It was a WeChat message from Sharon, “I saw an amazingly handsome male suit at Cosmos International. Come over and try it
out! And keep me company while you’re at it. I’m so bored by myself.”
Stanley typed a reply without hesitation. “I’m not free.”
“Why? You’re busy with work again, aren’t you? Are you a workaholic?”

“Keeping your daughter-in-law company.” After that, Stanley glanced casually at Xyla.
Xyla had her head lowered, holding her phone while she communicated with Georgie on X Entertainment matters. She looked
serious.
