"Since we're here, we might as well make the best of it. Besides, we can't escape now anyway."
Chu Lingtian smiled as he looked towards the main entrance of the bar.
Guo Xiaoyan followed his gaze and realized that most of the other patrons had been cleared out. The entrance was now guarded by several young men accompanying Wei Song, clearly to prevent her and Chu Lingtian from escaping.
"But... are we just supposed to wait here and do nothing?" Guo Xiaoyan asked, looking at Chu Lingtian.
Chu Lingtian smiled and said, "Don't worry, with me here, not a single hair on your head will be harmed."
Guo Xiaoyan was taken aback. She felt Chu Lingtian was boasting or trying to comfort her, believing they were out of options.
"Brother Chu, I like you. So, no matter what happens next, I'll be with you!" Guo Xiaoyan stated with conviction, her eyes showing a look of determined resignation.
Chu Lingtian smiled and gestured for Guo Xiaoyan to sit. They continued to savor the expensive Romanee-Conti red wine.
Meanwhile, at Wei Song's booth, Wang Jie's face was ashen, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, his body trembling.
"Wang Jie, why don't you go to the hospital first? I'll handle things here and guarantee that this reckless fool will have a very miserable end," Wei Song said with a cold, menacing glare at Chu Lingtian.
"It's fine, the bleeding has stopped for now. I must personally witness this dog's death on the spot, or my hatred will never be appeased!" Wang Jie exclaimed, his eyes filled with murderous rage. He had indeed considered going to the hospital immediately, but the bar's staff had brought a first-aid kit and he'd received some basic bandaging, making him feel he could hold on for a while longer.
"Alright then. How about this: after we deal with this dog, I'll have my fun with that pure, big-chested, big-butt beauty first. If I get bored, you'll be next," Wei Song said, his eyes leering as he fixated on Guo Xiaoyan's figure, his mind filled with lustful fantasies.
Wang Jie frowned. He was in so much pain that cold sweat was pouring off him. He had no appetite for thinking about women. "Young Master Wei, why don't we just kill that dog now? Why are we waiting here?"
"Because we don't have absolute certainty to deal with him at will right now." Wei Song's gaze shifted back to Chu Lingtian as he answered Wang Jie.
"Why don't we have absolute certainty?" Wang Jie retorted.
"Based on that move where he broke your wrist just now, the few of us combined are no match for him. That's why we need to wait for more of our people to arrive at the bar. I've already called them, and they'll be here soon. Do you want to call your dad and have him send some police officers over?" Wei Song asked, looking at Wang Jie.
Wang Jie shook his head. "Never mind calling my dad. I can call Xiao Lengyue and ask her to bring a few officers to help me."
"Xiao Lengyue? The famous hot-tempered, big-breasted police flower from our city's police bureau?" Wei Song's eyes lit up.
"Yes, Xiao Lengyue and I have a pretty good relationship. I'll call her and say someone is using martial arts to bully and intentionally injure me. With her hot temper and sense of justice, she'll definitely cripple this dog who broke my wrist on the spot. I just can't let her know the truth," Wang Jie nodded. He understood Xiao Lengyue well – this hot-tempered, well-figured policewoman had a strong sense of justice and would never bend the law for anyone. Thus, he could only deceive her and didn't dare tell her the truth, lest she arrest him herself and handle him according to the law.
"In this world, there are three types of women who can excite a man all night in bed. First, those with beautiful faces, slim figures, and large breasts and buttocks. Second, the promiscuous ones, who will play with anything and dare to do anything. Third, women like Xiao Lengyue, hot-tempered beautiful 'little peppers'. Sleeping with someone like her is full of challenge and stimulation, exploding a man's desire to conquer," Wei Song said with a lewd grin. He was a depraved scoundrel.
"Young Master Wei, I advise you not to set your sights on Xiao Lengyue. Her father is Commander Xiao Yuanshan of our city's military region..." Wang Jie's words were cut off by Wei Song's arrogant interruption.
"So what if it's Xiao Yuanshan? My dad is the mayor of this city. He's at least on equal footing with Xiao Yuanshan. Hurry up and call Xiao Lengyue to come here. If I get the chance tonight, I'll take care of her and that pure little beauty together," Wei Song declared, utterly unbridled and defiant.
Wang Jie dared not say anything more. Having colluded with Wei Song for years, he knew Wei Song's arrogant nature. More importantly, he knew that Wei Song not only had his father, the mayor, as a backer but also had powerful connections in the provincial government. Otherwise, how could Wei Song dare to act so brazenly?
Soon, Wang Jie had someone else dial Xiao Lengyue's number for him. During the call, Wang Jie shifted all the blame onto Chu Lingtian, portraying him as an irredeemable villain. This enraged Xiao Lengyue, who declared she would immediately bring her officers and guns to the bar.
At this moment, the bar manager, Huang Hao, also called his boss about the conflict between Chu Lingtian and Wei Song. He then approached Wei Song, Wang Jie, and the others with a fawning smile.
"Young Master Wei, Young Master Wang, I've understood the full story. How about this: let that kid compensate you with two hundred thousand yuan and apologize publicly. What do you say?"
"Are you f\*\*\*\*\*g kidding me? What did you say!" Wang Jie suddenly stood up from the sofa, glaring at Huang Hao.
Huang Hao chuckled awkwardly and continued, "Young Masters Wei and Wang, I believe everyone knows the truth of the matter. Moreover, our bar has full surveillance, so..."
"Holy sh\*t! Are you saying we're in the wrong? You're f\*\*\*\*\*g threatening us?" Wang Jie grabbed Huang Hao's collar with his left hand and roared.
Wei Song stood up from the sofa, gestured for Wang Jie to stop with his eyes, then picked up a wine bottle and walked up to Huang Hao, smiling. "You're actually pleading for that reckless fool? I think you've really had enough of living!"
*Bang!*
With a loud crack, Wei Song smashed the wine bottle onto Huang Hao's head. The bottle shattered, and Huang Hao fell to the ground, screaming. Blood instantly flowed from his head, a shocking sight.
Chu Lingtian's eyes turned cold. He stood up from the sofa. Huang Hao had pleaded for him and Guo Xiaoyan, and now Wei Song had smashed his head with a bottle. He naturally wouldn't stand by and watch.
But just then, a familiar female voice echoed.
"Young Master Wei, please calm your anger. My subordinate was ignorant. I beg you to show mercy and spare him."
