Yin Tianzong was really on good terms with Hong Dali. He spent a whole day playing with the Heaven Frost Sword that Hong Dali gave him and the effect was actually really good. When he saw him now, he felt exceptionally close to him and approached him chuckling. He said, "Dali, how long have you been here?"

"Ah, I just arrived and am just crowd watching—speaking of which, Brother Tianzong," Hong Dali grinned and asked Yin Tianzong, "who is this pretty lady?"

Honestly speaking, Yin Tianzong would not have brought a woman here casually. Judging from the woman's att.i.tude towards him, they did not look like they were in a romantic relations.h.i.+p.

This was strange. Where did Yin Tianzong find this pretty little la.s.s?

People loved gossip since times of old. Once she heard Hong Dali's question, Tang Muxin's ears perked up, waiting to hear Yin Tianzong's answer.

The other Honorary Aristocrats were filled with envy, jealousy, and hate—they worked so hard and did not even dare breathe too loudly in front of the Galaxy Aristocrats. However, Hong Dali the prodigal had it good. He spoke so casually to their Lord. Heaven was unfair!

"Ah, it's nothing." Yin Tianzong ignored the fact that this was an area meant for Honorary Aristocrats and that by sitting here, he was lowering himself. He sat down and said, smiling, "Her name is Heloise and she wants to take part in Sing! Milky Way. She's here to ask me to support her."

Hong Dali looked carefully at Heloise. She had golden-colored hair that fell to her shoulders in big wavy curls. Every tendril and lock of hair was s.e.xy and alluring. Her eyelashes were thick, her eyes sultry, and she had slim s.e.xy ears. She was exceedingly fascinating and charming. A light yellow shawl set off her perfect body, and her ample chest was especially beautiful. All that and a pair of white-colored high boots had even Hong Dali admitting that this woman was really very beautiful. According to the System's rating, her charm should be at least a hundred and one. She was going to partic.i.p.ate in Sing! Milky Way… She would be a fellow compet.i.tor to Li Nianwei. He quickly smiled and said h.e.l.lo, "Aiya, Miss Heloise is really beautiful. You're partic.i.p.ating in Sing! Milky Way, too. Please take care of us in the future."

"h.e.l.lo, Mr. Aristocrat." Hong Dali was an Honorary Aristocrat and Heloise did not dare behave carelessly, so she quickly greeted him. "Heloise greets your excellency." Although she bowed as she greeted Hong Dali, her eyes swept the area surrounding him. When she saw Li Nianwei and Tang Muxin, she was momentarily stunned. After that, she seemed to be more on guard against him.

It was obvious she heard Hong Dali mention the word "too". That meant that one of these two women, who made her feel a sense of foreboding, was going to take part in the compet.i.tion too. If her luck was bad, both of them would be taking part. Even if she ignored all other factors, based on their looks alone, they were sure to be strong compet.i.tors. She had to be careful.

Yin Tianzong was smart this time. He heard what Hong Dali said and immediately figured out. He took one glance at Li Nianwei and Tang Muxin and waved his hand. "You should return to your seat first. We'll talk after the auction."

"Okay… okay…" Heloise was at first stunned when she heard that, then she left, looking somewhat crestfallen.

"Big Brother Tianzong, uh." When he heard Yin Tianzong's tone of voice, Hong Dali knew he might have done something wrong. He hurriedly said, "Miss Heloise looks like she might have quite a bright future. I think it'll be okay to help her?"

"You already said 'too'. That means you have someone joining the compet.i.tion as well. Who is it?" Yin Tianzong glanced at Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei. "Is it your fiancée or Miss Nianwei?" Both Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei had looks that were stage-worthy. Yin Tianzong had very deep impressions of them both.

"Oh, it's Sister Nianwei." Hong Dali grinned. "However, the important thing is being able to take part. Sister Nianwei likes to sing. We don't need any help under the table, otherwise there is no purpose in partic.i.p.ating."

"Oh…" Yin Tianzong had wanted to help, but since Hong Dali had put it this way, there was nothing he could do except nod. "In that case, we'll talk about it in the future if and when it's needed. Sing! Milky Way does not just let partic.i.p.ants pit singing skills against each other. Winning also depends on their popularity. Toward the end, almost all the singers will look for us Galaxy Aristocrats to help boost their popularity."

"Oh, oh. We will talk about it when the time comes." It did not matter to Hong Dali either way. "As long as Sister Nianwei has fun, it's fine."

This was what Hong Dali was like. He really did not care about ranking at all. Besides, with Li Nianwei's abilities, she would have no problems getting past one or two rounds, perhaps she might even come in first—Hong Dali had numerous cla.s.sic hits from Earth in his head. It would not be hard to use one or two of them for the compet.i.tion.

Li Nianwei and Tang Muxin were extremely concerned about Hong Dali. Now that Hong Dali was obviously being extra concerned about their well-being, there was a different look in their eyes when they looked at him.

It was obvious when women were looking at men differently. Tianyi, who was beside them, took this opportunity to interject. "Brother Dali, these two ladies are gorgeous. How did you hook up with them? Can you teach a brother? I feel I'm quite good looking and talented, but when it comes to picking up girls, I can't compare to Brother Dali at all!"

Why else were sweet-talkers popular everywhere?

Tianyi was usually arrogant and despotic, but he was very good at playing up to people whom he deemed better than himself. With just a few words, he managed to make Yin Tianzong happy—he treated Hong Dali like a brother. Someone said that his brother was good, so he should be happy for him too, right?

Yin Tianzong smacked Tianyi's shoulder. "Kid, you're good, you're sharp-sighted! If there's anything you need help with, let me know! Brother Tianzong will protect you!" After saying this, he looked at Hong Dali, his eyes gleaming. "Brother, tell me about it too so that I can also become a casanova!"

Seeing that they were on such good terms, the surrounding Honorary Aristocrats were all thinking: "d.a.m.n, even flattering Hong Dali made Lord Tianzong so happy? Is the world coming to an end? It's too terrifying, isn't it?" Someone thought, "What's so great about Hong Dali, why does Lord Tianzong like him so much? Lord Tianzong should not like men…"

Obviously, he only dared to think about it but not say it. He still wished to live for a few more years…

Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei looked at each other—to ask Hong Dali about picking up women was like asking a cow to appreciate piano music. Hong Dali knew how to pick up women?!

This was a great time to spout nonsense!

Since he was going to do it, he had to make it as far-fetched as possible! Hong Dali did not stand on ceremony. He started immediately. "Picking up women is an art!"

Tang Muxin pouted. "This idiot wants to teach people how to pick up women… he himself does not know how to do it!" Speaking of which, Hong Dali's tendency to spoil the atmosphere had always been a thorn in Tang Muxin's heart. He was simply too unromantic!

Li Nianwei hid her smile. "Let's listen to what Young Master says, hehe!"

If someone bragged, someone had to play the supporting role. That position was perfectly taken by Tianyi. "Right, right, right, it is an art! In that case Brother Dali, please enlighten us? If we pick up women based on our status, that's not considered a special skill, right?"

"That's for sure!" Hong Dali started shooting his mouth off. "When it comes to picking up women, you must take note of the seven-word mantra. These are the seven crucial points! You definitely have to be bold [1. Read as dan da meaning bold. Made up of two words dan meaning guts and da meaning big], careful [2. Read as xin xi meaning careful. Made up of two words xin meaning heart and xi meaning fine] and brazen [3. Read as lian pi hou meaning brazen. Made up of three words lian meaning face or looks, pi meaning skin, and hou meaning thick.], no mistake about that!"

The Honorary Aristocrats all thought, "Bold, careful and brazen. That is just three points, right? Why is it called the seven crucial points?"

Tang Muxin stared. "This idiot can really spin tales!"

Hong Dali's words had piqued everyone's interest. In an instant, everyone's ears perked up and they waited to hear what the seven words were. The seven main points!

Hong Dali said, "Bold, careful and brazen. On the surface, it looks like you should be bold, careful and brazen, right? If that is what you think, then you are wrong. Very wrong!"

Tianyi said in surprise, "Is that not what that phrase means?"

Ying Tianzong dragged his stool toward Hong Dali. "Tell your brother about it quickly!"

Who would not want to listen to the art of picking up girls? Even Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei were curious.

Hong Dai smiled and said, "These are actually seven points! We must start from the beginning! Bold is made up of two parts. The first part is boldness. All the sayings regarding bravery and loyalty all refer back to the same thing. What do you think it is? It means that if you want to pick up women, you must be bold! You cannot get rooted to the ground once you meet a pretty woman. It won't do if you do not even dare to chat her up!"

"If you chat her up, you have a 50% chance of success. If you don't, the chance is zero! So, if you want to pick up women, it is important to be bold!"

d.a.m.n, Hong Dali actually managed to talk so much based on just one word?

Everyone was thinking, "This Hong Dali is really quite powerful—he is full of c.r.a.p!" Despite what they thought, everyone still had to admit that what he said did make some sense…

All the Honorary Aristocrats were once commoners. Before they became Honorary Aristocrats, there were times they wanted to pick up girls but did not dare to talk to them, so they did not succeed. This point was well made!

"That makes sense!" Yin Tianzong nodded. "That's a good point!"

Tianyi hurried to curry favor. "Brother Dali is great!"

Tang Muxin was dumbstruck. "This big idiot is really good at spouting nonsense!"

Li Nianwei thought, "Young Master is really great, he can hoodwink people regardless of the topic!"

The beginning of all things was the most important. You had to grab people's attention, then the rest was easy. Hong Dali said, "As for the next part, 'big', it's the most important thing in the seven crucial points. Hehe, hehehehe!"

He laughed lewdly and started between his legs.

At first, they did not understand what he meant, but they soon got it…

Tang Muxin blushed furiously and gulped. "Rogue!"

Li Nianwei's face was also red. She held onto Tang Muxin, covered her mouth and smiled.
