Chapter 475: You Bully Me
Chu Yue was immediately turned off by his cheesy pick-up line, and her gut instinct told her to brush him off. But an idea popped up in her mischievous mind—she could use the man to test Xiao Luo, she thought. Chu Yue could not believe that Xiao Luo didn’t feel for her.
“Oh? Does it really taste that unique? I must try it then.”
Chu Yue moved closer to the man on purpose, lifted the glass of margarita, and took a sip. “Mmm, it is really good!” she exclaimed.
The man was wearing a Hawaiian shirt. He was visibly delighted with Chu Yue’s reaction. He did not expect that the attractive girl in front of him would take the bait so readily. His brazen eyes pored over Chu Yue licentiously and asked, “This is your first time in a bar, isn’t it?”
“How do you know that?” Chu Yue said, surprised.
The man in the Hawaiian shirt chuckled. “Because I am good at physiognomy,” he replied.
He moved his chair closer to Chu Yu, and he was literally all over her. Chu Yue furrowed her brows as the man’s breath reeked of alcohol, and she felt the urge to push him away. However, when she caught sight of Xiao Luo out of the corner of her eye, she was utterly disappointed. There was no expression on Xiao Luo’s face; in fact, he looked disinterested and seemed to be unconcerned that she was cozying up to another man. Chu Yue seethed and started to hold a grudge against Xiao Luo.
Watching closely, Xiang Gaojian became agitated and had rage written all over his face. He was ready to step in to teach the guy a lesson, but Xiang Gaoyang raised his hand and stopped him.
Xiang Gaoyang was good at observing people, and he was much more aware of the chemistry between a man and a woman than Xiang Gaojian. It was evident that their young mistress was putting up a show for Xiao Luo. The only person who needed to step forward and stop her was Xiao Luo and not either of them. It wasn’t a wise move on their part to hold Miss Chu back, or she would most definitely make their lives a living hell later on.
Chu Yue put up with the suggestive signals that the man in the Hawaiian shirt was giving her and pretended to act curious. “Oh, you can perform physiognomy?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah yeah, that’s right. I’m not only good at physiognomy, but also palmistry.”
The man boasted and sniggered excitedly. “How about you let me have a look at your hand? I can tell you about your love life and your future luck, they’re accurate,” he said.
“Great, then tell me about my love life!” Chu Yue replied, extending her palm to him.
Chu Yue stole a glance at Xiao Luo, sitting beside her, as she held her fair and delicate hand out.
The man in the Hawaiian shirt took her hand, ran his thumb across her palm, and chuckled. “You have a very long heart line, and it has lots of thin branches that are intertwined with the fate line, that means your Mr. Right has arrived, and he is in this bar,” he declared.
“Who is it? Who is it?”
Chu Yue asked excitedly and seemed totally taken by the trickster in the Hawaiian shirt. Of course, what she really hoped for was rather for him to mention Xiao Luo’s name.
“Seemingly far away, but close at hand!”
The man in the Hawaiian shirt threw his head sideways, flicking the bangs covering his forehead. “Miss, your Mr. Right is me, it could only be fate that brought us here together in this sea of faces. The moment I laid eyes on your beautiful face, you captured my heart,” he said.
“Hahaha …” Chu Yue smiled nervously as soon as she heard that. She immediately lost interest in pursuing her charade and pulled her hand away. Then, she sheepishly continued sipping on the margarita.
The man in the Hawaiian shirt suddenly put his hand on Chu Yue’s shoulder and pulled her into his arms.
Chu Yue bolted up in shock. She couldn’t pretend any longer and screamed, “What the hell are you doing?”
The man in the Hawaiian shirt did not let Chu Yue go but pulled her even closer. He laughed and became more obnoxious. “Miss, do you know what it means by ‘putting seven fishbones on a leaf?’” he uttered salaciously.
Chu Yue was shocked and exasperated. “I don’t know, let go of me now,” she hissed.
“Well, I’ll tell you if you don’t know.”
The man in the Hawaiian shirt gave her a lewd smile and explained, “I’m sure you enjoy a good pun. ‘Leaf’ and ‘night’ have the same sound, and so does ‘fishbone’ and ‘times.’ This phrase means that I can nail a girl seven times on the same night,” he said, “So, let’s go get a room, I can make you fly all night, hahaha…”
“You’re a shameless scumbag! Let go of me, get your hands off me… Xiang Gaoyang, Xiang Gaojian, what are you standing there like idiots for? Come and teach this lecher a lesson!” Chu Yue cried. She struggled with all her might, but her tormentor refused to release her and was even now groping her. How could she put up with that?
Xiang Gaoyang realized that the situation had gone out of hand, and he had to act.
He hurriedly stepped up and grabbed the man in the Hawaiian shirt by the shoulder. As his fingers tightened, the man started crying out in pain. Then, Xiang Gaoyang kicked him on his chest, sending him flying some two or three meters and falling hard on the floor.
Chu Yue was badly shaken, and she quickly hid behind Xiang Gaoyang.
“Miss, don’t be scared, we are here!”
Xiang Gaoyang quickly comforted her and, at the same time, looked quizzically at Xiao Luo, who was still sitting in front of the bar, drinking his beverage. He thought to himself, does Xiao Luo not like Miss Chu at all? Miss Chu is being molested, and yet he doesn’t care.
Chu Yue glared at Xiao Luo furiously and yelled, “Pretentious d*ck, you …”
“Huh? Why is it about me, who asked you to provoke him?” Xiao Luo responded, giving her a puzzled look.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“I didn’t… that was because …”
Chu Yue was miserable. She could not articulate her intentions, and finally, all that she could come up with was: “You bully me!”
When she said that, her eyes began to turn red as they started to well up.
Xiao Luo frowned. He shook his head helplessly and said, “Who’s the one bullying you? The one who did is lying on the floor behind you.”
“I don’t care, you bully me!” Chu Yue screamed. In her fury, she became unreasonable and made a scene. She resolved to put all the blame for the trauma she’d been through on Xiao Luo.
“…” Xiao Luo did not know what to say.
Guan Tong, who was sitting by his side, was dumbfounded. He wondered what the hell was going on. A cute girl was openly flirting with Xiao Luo, and that *sshole just shunned her. Oh, my god, does he always need to be so bad*ss? Where does it leave me then? Are people really so different?
At that very moment, Xiao Luo was like a god to him.
“Brother Ping!”
Suddenly, more than a dozen heavily-built men surrounded them, and they helped the man in the Hawaiian shirt up.
“You guys are here just in time, I want those two *ssholes’ hands and legs chopped off. And take the girl with us, I’m gonna make her cry tonight!” The man in the Hawaiian shirt yelled. He was furious, and since she couldn’t be persuaded, then he’d use brute force instead. The pretty young girl in front of him would be his.
“I’ll give a fair warning, don’t look for trouble!” Xiang Gaoyang said.
“You motherf*cker! Everyone, go kick their *sses!” the man in the Hawaiian shirt shouted.
Seven or eight men pounced on Chu Yue’s bodyguards, and some even took knives out of their pockets. They looked cruel and dangerous and meant to do grievous harm.
Xiang Gaoyang and Xiang Gaojian were not intimidated at all. Instead, they charged toward their assailants, and soon, fists were flying everywhere. The thugs were no match for the military veterans, and they were all bashed up in no time. Within thirty seconds, those men were all lying on the floor, crying out in pain.
