Seeing Sun Zhe clashing with Han Qianchen, Chu Youdie felt a surge of panic, worried that things would escalate. If they did, it would affect her mission. Moreover, Sun Zhe would later face retaliation from Han Qianchen.
So she pulled Sun Zhe aside and whispered, "You should go, now. I can handle this."
She didn’t want to drag Sun Zhe into this, especially since he had stepped in for her sake.
But Sun Zhe just shrugged nonchalantly. "Why should I leave? I’m still waiting for him to call his n to chop up."
Perhaps it’s because I’m at the Nascent Soul Stage now, with such formidable strength, that I feel I have the power to back up my actions. Sun Zhe thought. He didn’t give a damn about a spoiled brat like Han Qianchen.
Chu Youdie sighed silently, averting her gaze. "I really appreciate you stepping in for , but I can handle this myself. Besides, the Zhou Family is behind Han Qianchen, and his aunt is Han Xinyue. As just a doctor, you can’t afford to provoke people like them."
Sun Zhe joked, "So what? Don’t I have you, Officer, to protect ?"
Chu Youdie rolled her eyes at him. "That’s why I’m telling you to leave! I’ll handle this myself; I don’t need your help."
Sun Zhe smiled faintly. "I think you’ve misunderstood. I’m not helping you; I’m helping your profession. Maybe because of what happened before, you look down on guys like . I don’t need you to think highly of , though. I’m getting involved tonight simply because I respect your profession. Besides, I can’t stand seeing a man bully a woman."
Hearing this, Chu Youdie’s gaze wavered. She looked up at Sun Zhe. Maybe this man wasn’t as awful as she’d imagined.
Sun Zhe continued, "Maybe fate brought us together now because it took pity on you and wanted to help. Don’t worry, Officer Beauty, I’ll take care of this for you tonight, and it won’t affect your mission. In fact, I might even be able to help you make so progress on it."
...
At this ti, the crowd in the hallway was growing larger, as no one dislikes watching a good show. Now, everyone looked at Sun Zhe and Chu Youdie with pity in their eyes.
"Sigh, they’re dood now."
"They ssed with Young Master Han. Those two are in for a world of hurt tonight."
"Playing the hero and saving the damsel in distress always requires power, no matter the era!"
"This guy has no money and no power, yet he dares to lose his head over a pretty face. What a fucking idiot!"
...
As the crowd was murmuring, a rush of urgent footsteps echoed down the hall. The onlookers quickly parted to clear a path.
Wang Feng appeared, leading several security guards with a nacing air. Their murderous aura was so intense that just the sight of them was enough to make one’s legs go weak.
"Young Master Han, where is he?!"
Han Qianchen hurriedly ran up to Wang Feng, pointing at Sun Zhe, who was still talking quietly with Chu Youdie. He gritted his teeth and snarled, "Brother Feng, that’s the son of a bitch who hit ! Just look at what he did to my face! If I don’t have his hands and feet chopped off tonight, then my na isn’t Han!"
Wang Feng looked at Han Qianchen’s swollen face, and his anger flared. He drew a retractable baton from his waist and advanced on Sun Zhe.
"Kid, turn your ass around!" he roared. "You dare cause trouble in my establishnt and hit one of my diamond mbers? Not even God can save you today, and I an it!"
At that mont, Han Qianchen looked at Sun Zhe as if he were a dead man, already picturing his miserable end.
But in the next instant, the murderous Wang Feng froze in his tracks, standing stock-still on the spot. Sun Zhe had turned around.
"Y-Y-Young... Young Master Sun... what are you doing here?"
Sun Zhe smiled. "Why can’t it be ?"
Wang Feng hurriedly hid the baton behind his back and laughed sheepishly. "Young Master Sun, really... why are you wasting your ti with a small fry like Han Qianchen? If sothing was wrong, you should’ve just called ."
Sun Zhe glanced at Han Qianchen and asked, "So, if I ask you to handle it now, can you do it? Or would you prefer I handle it myself?"
"I can!" Wang Feng nodded decisively and, without a second thought, spun around, marched toward Han Qianchen, and slapped him across the face.
SLAP!
The sharp crack of the slap echoed through the hallway.
The onlookers were completely dumbfounded by this turn of events, unable to comprehend what was happening. Why would Brother Feng suddenly hit Young Master Han?
Han Qianchen clutched his now even more swollen face and stared at Wang Feng in disbelief, stamring, "Brother Feng... I... I’m a diamond mber here!"
"To hell with your diamond mbership! Even if the Emperor of Heaven himself showed up, it wouldn’t matter! Whatever you’ve paid, I’ll have our finance departnt refund every penny to you later! From now on, if I ever see you in my establishnt again, I’ll beat you every single ti!"
Han Qianchen gritted his teeth, spat a mouthful of bloody saliva on the ground, and growled, "Do you know who my aunt is?"
SLAP!
Wang Feng slapped him again and sneered, "What, is your aunt Nuwa or sothing? Just how powerful is she? You better rember this: this place belongs to the Lieyang Group. This is President Leng’s territory. Even the Queen Mother of the West would have to bow down here!"
Han Qianchen laughed deliriously with rage. "Fine. Fine, fine, fine... You’ve got guts. Just you wait!"
Wang Feng’s expression didn’t change. "Are you going to get the hell out on your own, or do I have to have my n throw you out?"
...
「A short while later.」
After Han Qianchen had gone, Wang Feng dismissed the crowd and then approached Sun Zhe, bowing and scraping.
"Hehe, Young Master Sun, how did I do?"
Sun Zhe nodded. "You almost had scared for a second there," he said with a laugh.
"Hehe, you should hurry over to the Dijiang Suite. President Leng is waiting for you."
Sun Zhe suddenly wrapped an arm around Chu Youdie’s shoulder. "Lead the way."
Wang Feng was stunned for a mont, then he quickly said, "Young Master Sun, I don’t think that’s a good idea... You’re President Leng’s boyfriend. If you bring a hostess with you, especially while being so intimate... if President Leng sees this, you two are bound to argue again."
Sun Zhe’s expression turned strange. "Since when am I her boyfriend?"
Wang Feng replied, "Everyone in the entire group knows that you and President Leng are a couple."
Sun Zhe was rendered speechless.
Chu Youdie looked at him deeply, her mind reeling in disbelief. She couldn’t believe that Sun Zhe was actually involved with Leng Yueshuang like that. The entire reason she had infiltrated the Lieyang Group was to get to Leng Yueshuang!
Right now, however, she didn’t dare show a hint of it. She kept her head bowed, not daring to look up, terrified that Wang Feng might recognize her. The last ti she’d put the ’silver bracelet’ on Sun Zhe during a sting operation at another establishnt, Wang Feng had been there.
However, her worries were unfounded. Wang Feng didn’t recognize her at all. Won who work in nightclubs are always heavily made up. Once they put on their makeup, they all have that sa generic ’influencer’ look, more or less. Wang Feng never bothered to rember their faces. The only thing he cared about was business performance.
"Anyway, Young Master Sun, you should hurry over. Don’t keep President Leng waiting long," Wang Feng urged. "Oh, and Young Master Sun... about what just happened... please, you absolutely can’t tell President Leng. I had to beg her just to let manage this place. If she finds out what just happened, I’ll probably get exiled again."
Sun Zhe kept his arm around Chu Youdie as they walked forward. "Alright, I get it. Lead the way."
