Chu Lingtian’s eyes turned cold, and he took a step forward, ready to beat the young man who had cursed him until he was spitting blood.
Liu Bingxue quickly grabbed Chu Lingtian’s hand, her beautiful eyes pleading with him not to act impulsively.
Chu Lingtian frowned. He knew that given Liu Bingxue’s personality, she would not have come to such a place for a dinner party unless she was pushed to a corner.
For Liu Bingxue’s sake, Chu Lingtian put down the fruit platter in his hand and did not make a move against the young man who had insulted him.
Seeing that Chu Lingtian had stopped, Liu Bingxue breathed a huge sigh of relief. She then forced a smile and said to Chairman Zhou, “Chairman Zhou, allow me to introduce him. This is my full-time driver, Chu Lingtian. I asked him to come up. He’s a bit foolish. I hope you’ll forgive his earlier rudeness on my account.”
Upon hearing Liu Bingxue say that Chu Lingtian was her driver, Chairman Zhou and the others present looked at Chu Lingtian with even more disdain.
Especially the young man who had just cursed Chu Lingtian. The look in his eyes towards Chu Lingtian was as if to say, ‘Just as I expected. Looking at your ordinary clothes, it’s clear you have no power. You’re just a low-level piece of trash.’
“Bingxue, we can overlook the rash behavior of this young man, Chu… whatever his name is, on your account. But what will you do to show your sincerity?” Chairman Zhou asked, leering at Liu Bingxue.
Liu Bingxue froze. She knew Chairman Zhou was deliberately making things difficult for her, but she had no other choice. She had come here tonight to beg Chairman Zhou for a favor. Their positions were not equal, so it was impossible to have a fair conversation.
“Chairman Zhou, everyone, I’ll finish this half bottle of red wine as an apology to you,” Liu Bingxue said, picking up the half bottle of red wine on the table and looking at Chairman Zhou and the others.
Chairman Zhou’s eyes were fixed on Liu Bingxue’s rosy, seductive lips. He grinned lewdly and said, “Good! I love watching women suck on the upper half of a bottle neck. Especially when a beauty does it, it’s a unique kind of pleasure, a distinct beautiful sight.”
“That’s right. President Liu is a renowned beauty in the business world of Jiangnan City. It must be beautiful and comfortable to watch her do it.”
“President Liu is so bold and sincere. We’ll all overlook this undisciplined driver’s offense on your behalf. Hurry up and suck on the bottle neck with your mouth.”
“You must put the entire upper half of the bottle’s neck into your mouth.”
The men present became excited. Although their words were not explicit, anyone could understand the lustful meaning behind them.
Liu Bingxue’s face turned bright red. She looked at the long cylindrical neck of the wine bottle in her hand. It resembled a man’s appendage. She slightly moved her lips, opening them a little, and felt it was a bit difficult to fit in.
Especially now, as Chairman Zhou and the other lecherous men were looking at her as if she were about to put a man’s appendage into her mouth, their eyes filled with various fantasies and lustful thoughts.
Just as Liu Bingxue was being forced to slowly bring the bottle neck to her lips and was about to shamefully open her mouth, Chu Lingtian snatched the wine bottle from her hand. He smiled and said, “President Liu, it was my fault earlier. If anyone is to apologize to all the bosses here, it should be me. So, I’ll drink this wine.”
Liu Bingxue looked at Chu Lingtian, her eyes filled with shock. She hadn’t expected this man, who had always been impulsive and violent, to act in such a way.
“What do you think you are? Just a mere driver. We let your earlier actions slide for President Liu’s sake. Otherwise, with your kind of low-level trash, a single word from us could leave you with no place to be buried. And now you dare to bark out again, are you looking for death?” The young man who had cursed Chu Lingtian earlier immediately pointed at Chu Lingtian’s nose and started scolding him again.
“Hmph, a mere driver dares to speak out of turn in such a grand occasion. Truly ignorant of life and death.”
“I’ve seen people courting death, but I’ve never seen someone like this ‘Chu’ courting death. I really am seeing it for the first time.”
“I think we should stop wasting our breath and just order someone to come in and beat this ignorant, overconfident dog out.” The other men also started to verbally abuse Chu Lingtian.
Because these men were in a state of lustful excitement, their eyes were fixed on the wine bottle in Liu Bingxue’s hand and her seductive lips. They were even fantasizing in their minds about this peerless beauty blowing for each of them.
But now Chu Lingtian had interrupted this wonderful moment, these wonderful fantasies. Chairman Zhou and the others were undoubtedly angry and furious, wishing Chu Lingtian would disappear from the room immediately.
At this moment, Chu Lingtian grinned and said, “All you bosses seem to be very angry. It seems that drinking this half bottle of red wine is not enough sincerity for my apology. How about this, I’ll finish this unopened bottle of Maotai? What do you say?”
“Heh heh, do you think someone like you is worthy of drinking Maotai? Have you even seen it before?” the young man who had first cursed Chu Lingtian asked, looking at Chu Lingtian with extreme disdain.
“Yes, I haven’t drunk Maotai before, but I’ve heard of it, so I really want to try it. And thank you, bosses, for giving me this opportunity, allowing a poor boy like me, who is ignorant, poor, powerless, and without influence, to taste such fine wine…” Before Chu Lingtian could finish speaking, Liu Bingxue tugged at him.
Liu Bingxue frowned and looked at Chu Lingtian, whispering, “You, what exactly do you want to do?”
Chu Lingtian did not answer Liu Bingxue’s question. Instead, he turned his head and, with a smile, asked the young man who had repeatedly insulted him, “Since everyone is allowing me to drink this bottle of Maotai, what about this half bottle of red wine?”
“How should I know? Idiot, you’re even asking such a question. It’s utterly laughable!” the young man mocked.
Chu Lingtian smiled and said, “Then how about this, I’ll treat you to this half bottle of red wine!”
*Shua!*
*Bang!*
With a loud bang, the wine bottle shattered.
“Ah…” The young man who had repeatedly and arrogantly insulted Chu Lingtian immediately fell to the ground, covering his head with his hands and screaming.
Red wine mixed with blood and small fragments of broken glass flowed from the young man’s head, instantly covering his entire face.
*Bang!* Chu Lingtian then stomped on the young man’s face, forcefully pressing the glass shards into his eyes and the flesh of his face.
The young man’s screams were heart-wrenching. He never would have dreamed that someone like Chu Lingtian would dare to beat him to death.
“How is it? Does it taste good? Would you like another bottle?” Chu Lingtian asked, looking down at the young man under his foot with a harmless smile.
Liu Bingxue and the others present gasped in shock, staring at Chu Lingtian with wide, dumbfounded eyes. They were all stunned into silence by Chu Lingtian’s sudden, ruthless methods.
