15: Chapter 15 Bar Conflict
A farce was unfolding inside the bar.
However, an elegant lady suddenly discovered that she actually knew the protagonist of this farce.
The woman in the white dress looked at her and asked in disbelief, "What's wrong, Wanqing? Do you know him?"
As it happened, this elegant woman was actually the vice president of the City Investment Company, Zhou Wanqing.
Wanqing nodded helplessly. "This kid is Su Nange."
The woman in the white dress had a look of great surprise on her beautiful face, but her eyes betrayed an irrepressible smile.
She covered her mouth. "The one who saw everything and got fired by you~?"
Wanqing glared at her. "You brat, don't say that!"
The woman in the white dress giggled and asked, "So what now? Aren't you going to help him?"
Wanqing sighed again. "You go talk to them!"
Having received her orders, the woman in the white dress replied, "Sure thing!"
Then, stepping in her high heels, she walked over happily.
When the people at the bar saw her approaching, they suddenly said respectfully, "Miss Liu, you're here. Sorry for the disturbance; we'll have this sorted out right away."
The respected Miss Liu waved her hand and smiled. "Go attend to other things; someone wants to see him."
Hearing this, the group realized this guy was actually an acquaintance of Miss Liu. Their attitudes shifted instantly as they chuckled nervously, "Our apologies, we didn't know he was your acquaintance."
Once they left, Miss Liu called out to Su Nange, "Hey, handsome, stop drinking here. Why don't you come over to my table?"
Through his blurred vision, Su Nange saw a stunningly beautiful woman!
Her white dress gave her an ethereal aura, making her age impossible to guess. However, her pretty face was seventy percent pure and thirty percent seductive.
She was practically the ultimate heartbreaker for young men.
However, Su Nange shook his head. "No matter how pretty you are, I don't know you. I just want to drink alone."
Miss Liu, Liu Yuan, was the princess of a top-tier tycoon family in Qiantang City.
Facing Su Nange's rejection, Liu Yuan laughed, "Oh? I never thought I, Liu Yuan, would see the day I'd be rejected. You've got guts, kid!"
Fueled by the alcohol, Su Nange's temper flared. "What are you talking about? You think just because you're good-looking, you can force yourself on an upright young man like me? Let me tell you, keep dreaming!"
Liu Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this drunk man.
She pointed over there and said, "If my friend hadn't asked me to save you, do you think I'd bother with you?"
Su Nange looked in the direction Liu Yuan was pointing, his foot slipped, and he nearly tumbled under the bar counter.
Talk about an unexpected run-in with a nemesis.
Seeing his enemy made his blood boil. Su Nange grabbed his bottle and stormed over!
Seeing things were going south, Liu Yuan hurried to stop him, but when her slender arm grabbed Su Nange's, it felt like holding onto a block of iron!
Liu Yuan hadn't expected this boy's strength to be so immense.
Miss Liu's hidden bodyguards were about to rush in to help, but in a few steps, Su Nange was already standing before Zhou Wanqing.
Just as Su Nange was about to speak, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his head.
In a moment of desperation, Liu Yuan had smashed a bottle against him. Su Nange, standing over 1.8 meters tall, instantly collapsed to the floor.
Zhou Wanqing shouted, "Liu Yuan, are you crazy?!"
Liu Yuan chuckled nervously, "Hehe, I was just afraid he was going to kill you~~"
Zhou Wanqing covered her face; things were getting more insane by the second.
The bar farce ended, and when Su Nange woke up again, he found himself lying in a luxurious bedroom.
A throbbing pain came from the back of his head. In his fragmented, blurry memories, had someone hit him?
Beside the large bed stood a bodyguard dressed in black.
Seeing him wake up, the bodyguard said, "I'll take you to see the Eldest Miss!"
The bodyguard was also shocked. His young mistress had struck with full force, shattering a thick glass bottle. Yet this guy's skull was unharmed, only slightly swollen.
Furthermore, while carrying him, he noticed the boy's muscles were incredibly hard! Could he be a Martial artist?
Su Nange was brought to a tea room where he saw two women sitting across from each other, drinking tea.
Liu Yuan's technique was exquisite as she handled the various tea sets and procedures with fluid grace.
Seeing Su Nange, she motioned for him to come over and sit.
Su Nange, now mostly sobered up, asked, "Did someone try to kill me just now?"
Liu Yuan lowered her head in silence, looking like she had a guilty conscience.
Zhou Wanqing remained expressionless and said indifferently, "What was that madness at the bar? They were trying to kick you out, and my friend kindly stepped in to help you."
"Also, you were storming toward me so aggressively! What were you planning to do to me this time?"
Do what? Su Nange was speechless. You fired me and made Tingting think I'm a loser. You have the nerve to ask what I was doing?
Su Nange said irritably, "If it weren't for you, my girlfriend wouldn't have left me!"
Liu Yuan loved a good drama. She covered her mouth and said with a hint of schadenfreude, "No way, just because you saw her, your girlfriend dumped you? Does she have some kind of psychological obsession with purity?"
Zhou Wanqing roared, "Liu Yuan! Believe it or not, I'll rip your mouth apart!"
Her intensity even gave Su Nange a start.
Su Nange took a sip of tea and was surprised by how sweet and fragrant it was. High-end goods for the wealthy were truly something else.
Su Nange said calmly, "It's hard to explain. Maybe it's just the tragedy of us common folk. She's very busy with work, and seeing me play games at home every day made her think I have no ambition."
"But I did try to find a job. With a record of being fired from a major state-owned enterprise, who would dare hire me?"
Zhou Wanqing said nothing more and just focused on her tea.
Liu Yuan said, "What's so hard about that? I can introduce you to a job! Or better yet, come work for me. You name your salary."
Su Nange shook his head. "No thanks, I'm doing fine now. I'm a man; I like to rely on myself!"
Zhou Wanqing paused for a moment and glanced at Su Nange.
Yesterday, she had heard Su Yao's report. Su Yao seemed very excited and had praised this man repeatedly.
Therefore, in Zhou Wanqing's heart, her perception of Su Nange inevitably shifted a little.
At least he didn't blindly come looking for her right away, but instead started from the grassroots level to turn around his previous negative image.
Zhou Wanqing quite approved of this.
She felt that although he was young, he was indeed not a reckless person.
Liu Yuan broke Zhou Wanqing's reverie. "But you were so aggressive earlier; I thought you were going to kill Wanqing~"
Zhou Wanqing glared at Liu Yuan again.
Su Nange said, puzzled, "I just wanted to toast President Zhou; who knew I'd suddenly lose consciousness!"
Liu Yuan began fiddling with the tea set again, her beautiful face showing a look of shame that was actually quite charming.
However, while Su Nange sipped his tea, he thought coldly: This isn't over. You high-and-mighty women, how could you ever understand the tragedy of people like us.
Setting President Zhou aside for a moment, at least she's been trying to compensate in other ways.
But you, Liu Yuan! If my physical fitness hadn't suddenly improved, I probably would have been killed by that strike of yours, wouldn't I?
To a young miss like you, we ordinary people are nothing more than a source of amusement, right? Even if you really killed me, I bet you wouldn't face any proper punishment.
You damn woman, just you wait! One day, I'll have that pretty face of yours under my crotch—no, I mean under my feet!
And you, Zhou Wanqing, compensating me is only right. I want to make you regret it! I'll make you remember forever that there was someone you hurt!
Sooner or later, I will make you bow that arrogant head of yours!
Having finished his mental resolve, Su Nange prepared to take his leave.
He walked out of the magnificent club and discovered it was located right by the famous West Lake.
Su Nange marveled once again; the power of money truly was omnipotent.
Back inside, the two women were still drinking tea. Liu Yuan smiled at Zhou Wanqing, "I didn't expect this guy to have so much backbone~"
Zhou Wanqing didn't answer, her thoughts unknown.
