Rong Lan's expression turned fierce. In the blink of an eye, she grabbed an empty wine bottle and flicked her wrist. The bottle landed on the head of the skinny man with a loud crash.
Immediately afterwards, a scream rang out.
"Ah—"
The scream was so shrill that even the deafening music couldn't drown it out. For a moment, the noisy bar fell silent.
Seeing that the people around were eager to watch the show, Seth waved his hand. Bodyguards lurking in different positions surrounded them from all directions.
"You go to the bar and protect my brother," Seth patted one of the bodyguards on the shoulder. "You two go and evacuate the irrelevant people. Tell them that they won't get any compensation if they get injured while watching the show. The rest of you stay here with me to protect my sister."
Bai Rongran looked in the direction of the sound, anxiety written all over her face. "Rong Lan wouldn't have left Chu Hengyuan alone and gone to cause trouble, would she?"
She had known Rong Lan for some time, but she had never known that Rong Lan had such skills. It would be better if Rong Lan and Chu Hengyuan were together, but it seemed a bit too outrageous for Rong Lan to go alone.
Seth could see Bai Rongran's uneasiness. He gently patted her on the shoulder and grinned to comfort her. "Don't worry. Since my brother is confident enough to let sister - in - law go alone, it means that sister - in - law can surely take on ten opponents with ease. Just sit here and watch sister - in - law show her prowess."
"Sir, your female companion is causing trouble. Aren't you going to do something about it?" The bartender glanced at the direction of the incident, then looked at Chu Hengyuan, who was leisurely lighting a cigarette. His expression was not pleasant.
Chu Hengyuan just smiled. He took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and tossed it to the bartender. "I'll compensate for all the losses caused here today."
The bartender caught the cigarette steadily. He glanced at the brand of the cigarette case, and the uneasiness on his face disappeared completely. "As you wish."
He didn't say anything more and stepped aside to play with the cigarette in his hand. He had heard of this kind of cigarette but had never seen it before, because a box of this cigarette cost as much as six digits. Unless one was extremely wealthy, who would be willing to smoke such cigarettes?
A person who was willing to give away such cigarettes casually should... not run away after making a mess here... right...
The bodyguard stood silently behind Chu Hengyuan.
Chu Hengyuan noticed the extra person behind him. He glanced back over his shoulder but didn't say a word and continued to stare at the place where the conflict was intense.
His little girl was surrounded by several big men. From his angle, he could only barely see her white, fluffy fox ears sticking up.
He could roughly tell that they seemed to be scolding his little girl, but!
He glanced at the position of the DJ. Obviously, the DJ in this bar was a man of wide experience. When faced with this situation, he didn't panic at all. Wearing headphones, his body swayed with the rhythm of the music. The music didn't get any quieter at all, so Chu Hengyuan couldn't hear what the people in the conflict were saying at all.
"Such a wild little beauty. Do you not want your life? Hmm?"
"It's not too late for you to kneel down and apologize to us now. Otherwise, your pretty little face is going to be scratched."
Chu Hengyuan couldn't hear, but Rong Lan, who was surrounded in the middle, heard it clearly.
She tightened her grip on the half - broken wine bottle in her hand and smiled brightly. "Irrelevant people had better get out of the way. It would be bad if I accidentally hurt an innocent person."
However, no one listened to her. They only thought that the unlucky guy lying on the ground was hit because he didn't guard against Rong Lan. As long as they were ready to fight back, they could knock down this seemingly delicate girl.
"You hurt my brother. I won't let you go so easily!"
"That's right!"
"Really not going to kneel down and apologize? Most of the people in this bar are our brothers. Being stubborn won't let you walk out of the bar unscathed. As long as you soften up and serve us well, we'll forgive you on behalf of our brother."
Rong Lan listened to them threatening one after another and laughed even more happily, because she could guarantee that the harsher they talked now, the more miserable they would be later. "Countdown—"
"3—"
"2—"
"1—"
"You don't have a chance to leave!" The moment her voice fell, the little fox's black pupils suddenly turned heterochromatic. At the same time, she swung the wine bottle in her hand at one of the people surrounding her.
The selected person subconsciously raised his hand to block. The others saw that Rong Lan had made a move without giving them any face, so they picked up the wine bottles and swung them at Rong Lan.
What they didn't know was that all their actions seemed like slow - motion with special effects in Rong Lan's eyes. She could easily judge what their next move would be and then figure out the best way to fight back.
Moreover, before she started fighting, she had put a protective shield on herself. Even if she missed someone, that person's wine bottle couldn't hit her.
She could make sure that she remained unscathed while rubbing all those who tried to attack her on the ground.
"One—two—" Rong Lan snatched a wine bottle from one of them and swung it up. The third person screamed and covered his head as he fell.
There was frost in her eyes, but the smile on her face remained unchanged. "It's too late for you to kneel down and apologize now~"
Chu Hengyuan adjusted his gold - rimmed glasses and stared intently at the little girl who seemed so at ease in the crowd.
The glasses made by Si Mo were extremely reliable. Now, besides seeing the little girl's fox ears and heterochromatic pupils, he even saw a visible gas flowing around her. She controlled this gas and could use it to resist attacks.
He felt as if he was watching a science - fiction blockbuster, and Rong Lan was the protagonist with high - end special effects in it.
"Third—fourth—" Rong Lan grabbed the paw that was about to reach her neck with one hand and waved the wine bottle hard with the other. The bottle hit the man's forearm, and blood and flesh splashed out.
"Ah—"
The DJ seemed not to notice that most of the people in the bar had left. Those who remained were either fighting or watching the fight, and no one was in the mood to dance. But he himself was happily swaying to the rhythm of the disco music.
"Do we really not need to go and help?" Bai Rongran, who was watching from afar, was so nervous that she was about to tear her clothes.
From her angle, she couldn't see where Rong Lan was at all, but she could hear screams from time to time. Although none of those screams were Rong Lan's, she was afraid, afraid that the next scream she heard would be from Rong Lan.
Seth shook his head, his eyes shining. "No, no. Sister - in - law must be a very powerful master! Brother can see sister - in - law from his perspective. If something happened to sister - in - law, brother would definitely act first, so don't worry!"
He didn't expect that the seemingly frail sister - in - law was actually so powerful. His brother's judgment of people was really good.
