Lan Zihua gazed affectionately at Lin Beichen and suddenly suggested,

"Shall we go have a drink? There's not much to do tonight anyway."

Lin Beichen chuckled softly and nodded.

"What, didn't you have enough this afternoon? Now you want to drink again."

"If you get so drunk you can't walk, I'll have to take you back to my place."

Lin Beichen said casually.

Upon hearing this, Lan Zihua turned her head with a meaningful look and said,

"Sure, I don't mind staying at your place tonight. That's no big deal to me."

Lan Zihua had made her words quite clear.

After all, she's a female CEO; she couldn't speak as brazenly as those wanton women.

She had already shown considerable interest in Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen slightly furrowed his brow at her words.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Beichen shook his head.

"Forget it. I'll take you home. We can discuss this another time."

Lin Beichen didn't want to progress too quickly with Lan Zihua.

After all, there were aspects of this woman he still couldn't quite understand.

Lan Zihua was a bit disappointed, but she said nothing more.

The two walked into a nearby bar.

Lan Zihua ordered two whiskeys, while Lin Beichen glanced at the snacks and, as before, ordered ten lamb kebabs.

Seeing him order kebabs, Lan Zihua couldn't help but laugh.

"Goodness, lamb kebabs, that's something you eat at street stalls. This is a high-end bar, and you're having kebabs?"

Lan Zihua laughed so hard, swaying back and forth, staring at Lin Beichen.

Lin Beichen, a prominent figure, yet his tastes are so down-to-earth; it bewildered Lan Zihua.

Lin Beichen laughed, picked up a kebab, and ate it with relish.

"I can only say, I always keep my commoner spirit, and I think lamb kebabs are the tastiest."

Lin Beichen said with a smile. Meanwhile, a young man with yellow hair walked in from afar.

He wore a high-end Rolex on his right hand, his eyes scanning the bar.

The bar's lights faded in and out, unpredictable.

The yellow-haired youth's gaze immediately locked onto Lan Zihua.

Licking his lips, a lewd smile appeared on his face.

"What a pretty girl, looks excellent."

"Tonight, it's her."

The yellow-haired youth sneered, heading over to Lin Beichen's side.

A devilish smile played at the corner of his mouth, insidiously treacherous.

He came to this bar specifically to find prey, especially women who could bring fresh excitement.

Whether the targets had boyfriends or husbands, Huangmao didn't care.

He liked doing as he pleased, because nobody ever dared act against him, backed by a powerful family.

Slowly approaching, several bodyguards followed him, surrounding Lin Beichen completely.

Meanwhile, Lin Beichen and Lan Zihua were leisurely drinking.

Suddenly, he noticed a group of people approaching.

He laughed coldly, putting down his glass.

Lan Zihua also furrowed her brow, asking Lin Beichen,

"Do you know who these people are?"

Lin Beichen snorted coldly, replying to Lan Zihua,

"Probably a bunch of clueless guys looking for trouble. I'll assess the situation later."

With that, Lin Beichen turned to them and asked coldly,

"What do you want?"

Huangmao ignored Lin Beichen, his gaze fixed steadily on Lan Zihua.

Immediately, Huangmao sat across from Lin Beichen and smiled at Lan Zihua,

"Hey beauty, would you like to dance with me? It's quite fun dancing here."

"Normally the dance floor costs five hundred per person, but if you dance with me, it'll all be free."

Huangmao said to Lan Zihua.

Hearing this, Lan Zihua couldn't suppress her laughter.

She hadn't expected Huangmao to be interested in her.

Following this, Lan Zihua said to Huangmao,

"You must be joking, right? You really want to dance with me?"

"I'm not joking about it at all. Dancing with a beauty like you is my honor, and I hope you'll give me this chance."

Huangmao said lecherously.

Lan Zihua looked at Lin Beichen and asked him,

"So, Lin Beichen, what do you think?"

Lin Beichen snickered; he hadn't expected this guy to be so clueless.

Daring to go after Lan Zihua, without assessing his own worth.

He jokingly said to Lan Zihua,

"If you're willing, then go ahead. I don't mind."

Upon hearing Lin Beichen's words, Huangmao felt smug internally. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

He initially thought Lin Beichen would stop them, which would add unnecessary trouble.

But Lin Beichen was unexpectedly "generous", not blocking the situation at all.

Huangmao looked down on Lin Beichen even more.

"Just another useless guy, easy to deal with."

Next, Huangmao glanced at Lan Zihua, desire etched across his face.

Lan Zihua stood up and walked toward Huangmao.

Huangmao became instantly excited.

"Such a gorgeous beauty, I didn't think I'd conquer her so quickly."

However, as he gleefully thought all that, Lan Zihua suddenly slapped him across the face.

Then she gave him several more slaps.

"What!"

Huangmao was caught off guard, jumping to his feet.

Lan Zihua stared at Huangmao and said coldly,

"You jerk, what makes you think you can have unruly thoughts about me."

"I'll just reward you with a few slaps."

Lan Zihua said proudly.

Huangmao's face instantly twisted with rage, shocked by Lan Zihua's audacity.

In all his time looking for prey, never had he encountered such a situation.

"Trying to find death, are you? I was going easy because you looked beautiful."

"But since you've provoked me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Huangmao snorted coldly, reaching out to grab Lan Zihua.

Lin Beichen saw everything.

He kicked out, causing Huangmao to scream and fly back.

Several of his teeth were kicked out.

Everyone nearby was stunned by this scene.

Then several bodyguards shouted,

"Get him, punish this bastard; he dared to hit the young master!"

At the shout, five or six bodyguards rushed up.

They were just a rabble; even combined couldn't raise much trouble. Lin Beichen easily floored them with a few casual kicks. They lay on the ground moaning, evidently subdued by Lin Beichen.

Huangmao staggered to his feet, glaring incredulously at Lin Beichen.

Other patrons in the bar stood up, their gazes shifting between Lin Beichen and Huangmao. Those who accompanied Huangmao were dumbstruck.

They knew Huangmao's background. He was the boy toy of a local family's eldest daughter, a woman with immense power and three doting brothers. She never considered marriage, constantly keeping handsome young lovers. Huangmao was just one of them; despite being a thug, her family's influence deterred anyone from crossing him easily.

Who was Lin Beichen to dare antagonize Huangmao? The crowd looked at each other, filled with doubt and fear.

Huangmao managed to stand, sneering at Lin Beichen, "You're done for this time; offending me won't end well for you."
