727: Chapter 716: Lord Jiu Arrives!
Teng Feiyue was naturally beautiful and graceful, and she had no airs about her, which made her naturally likable.
The bartender thought she wanted to try the high-proof cocktails like those seen on television, so he offered a suggestion, but that was all.
Because of his job, he couldn’t say much either, and given the mixed crowd in this place, he was just a bartender who had seen it all.
He no longer possessed the fiery youthfulness he once had; for some matters, he could only turn a blind eye.
In the bartender’s field of view, at least five or six men were eyeing Teng Feiyue.
He wanted to warn her, but he was not in control of the situation, so he could only make a suggestion.
“Then just bring me anything,” she said.
Teng Feiyue didn’t think too much about it; after placing a hundred-dollar bill on the bar, she curiously looked around.
It was her first time in such a place.
To her, this bar was like a new world, filled with attractions.
Although born into the Yunteng Family, known for their use of Evil Gu, she was probably the best natured in the family due to her inherent rejection of Evil Gu.
Her knowledge of bars was limited to what she had heard from various stories by Huayang, so Teng Feiyue was completely unfamiliar with them.
But the vibrant atmosphere and the pulsating lights ignited the rebelliousness in Teng Feiyue, and she couldn’t help but immerse herself in it.
“Hey, beauty, are you alone?”
A frivolous-looking man sat down next to Teng Feiyue.
Teng Feiyue furrowed her brows and ignored him.
The man wasn’t annoyed and elegantly said, “Can I buy you a drink?”
Teng Feiyue shook her head and firmly refused him, “No need.
I don’t know you.”
“Strangers are just friends you haven’t met yet!” the man laughed and snapped his fingers at the bartender, “A Bloody Mary for this beautiful lady!”
The bartender looked up, his expression slightly frozen.
He recognized the man as someone from the Six Fan Gate.
This was their territory in the West District, and this man was one of their enforcers.
Noticing the meaningful glance from the man, the bartender understood what it meant; the man wanted him to drug Teng Feiyue’s drink.
After a moment of internal struggle, the bartender hesitated, prompting the man to frown and ask in a cold voice, “Didn’t you hear me?”
“Right away!”
The bartender replied and subconsciously glanced at Teng Feiyue.
Teng Feiyue frowned.
Seeing the shadow across the bartender’s eyes, and despite being unfamiliar with such tricks, she assumed the man next to her was just being obnoxious and said, “I don’t need it.
I have money!”
Directly stating that she didn’t need anyone to pay for her drink, Teng Feiyue underestimated this man’s thick skin.
“Don’t be polite.
If you won’t drink, he might not need to come into work tomorrow.”
Hearing his tone, which didn’t seem like a joke, and recalling the bartender’s glance, Teng Feiyue realized something.
With the corner of her eye, she saw the bartender’s hands sneakily moving beneath the bar.
After discovering this, Teng Feiyue scoffed coldly, her gaze hardening as she stared at the man.
“Sweetheart, I like the look in your eyes!”
The man licked his lips, unaware that Teng Feiyue had noticed the bartender drugging the drink.
He observed her cold demeanor with increasing delight, relishing the thrill of conquering such prey!
Soon enough, the bartender had prepared a Bloody Mary and placed it on the bar.
“It’s on me.
Don’t be shy,” the man pushed the drink toward Teng Feiyue.
Teng Feiyue coldly smiled, picked up the glass, and splashed it in the man’s face.
“With tricks like that, you dare try to play me?” Teng Feiyue’s expression hardened, and her aura suddenly shifted.
How could she, being a martial artist in the True Qi Realm, be manipulated by such a man?
Unaware of the danger he had incited, the man was furious after being doused with the drink and ripped off the facade to shout, “Little bitch, do you know whose turf this is?!”
“Ha, what’s that to me?”
Teng Feiyue stood up and slapped the man across the face.
The man hadn’t cared at all, so when Teng Feiyue’s hand struck her face, a tremendous force came at him, flipping him to the ground.
With a bang, his head hit the ground, and a group of onlookers in the distance who had been watching changed their expressions and all crowded around.
“Damn it, what are you doing?!”
“Are you alright?”
“You little bitch, dare to make a move?!”
A bunch of burly men surrounded the bar, scaring away many customers, and the bartenders inside also ducked down, their faces changing.
The man struck by Teng Feiyue, his right cheek swollen, was helped up by others, dizzy, he pointed at Teng Feiyue and yelled, “Take her down, kill her tonight!”
Seeing these men coming at her, Teng Feiyue sneered inwardly, just a bunch of drunkards daring to bluff in her presence!
Slap slap slap—
Just as Teng Feiyue was about to make a move, a series of loud claps sounded from the side.
“Didn’t expect to watch a good show tonight, they’re your men?”
“Who’s the bastard causing trouble, don’t they know who we are?!”
The bouncer turned to the person clapping, unable to help but bellow.
“Oh, who are you?”
Ning Fan gave a cold smile, and from behind him, Zi Hongyu walked out with an ugly expression, wishing he could kill this group of people.
This was Zi Hongyu’s Six Fan Gate territory.
Tonight Ning Fan had been invited to have a few drinks with Zi Hongyu, and unexpectedly, they ended up witnessing this drama.
Such an incident happening within his territory, and seen by Ning Fan, it was no wonder Zi Hongyu’s expression was ugly.
“Zi, Master Zi?!”
The bouncers exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Zi Hongyu.
“What’s going on here?”
Zi Hongyu coldly demanded an explanation.
The men trembled, looking at each other, afraid to speak under Zi Hongyu’s gaze.
“They, they tried to drug her!”
A bartender suddenly stood up, speaking up for Teng Feiyue, saving his own life with this act.
“What the fuck did you say, Master Zi, don’t listen to this kid’s nonsense, it’s not true!”
The bouncers were immediately frightened.
Although they didn’t recognize Ning Fan and the others, being with Zi Hongyu meant they weren’t ordinary people.
With them wanting to get involved and seeing Zi Hongyu’s ugly expression, misfortune would certainly befall them!
Seeing the bartender expose them, they dared not admit to it and immediately began to defend themselves.
“They’re your men, you know what to do, right?
I don’t need to teach you,” Ning Fan said at that moment.
Zi Hongyu’s expression stiffened, he quickly put on a smile, turned his head toward Ning Fan, and replied respectfully, “Ninth Master, rest assured, I understand!”
“The Ninth Master?!”
When the bouncers heard Zi Hongyu address Ning Fan in such a manner, they were immediately frightened and collapsed to the ground.
It was the Ninth Master?!
They were doomed now, of all people, they had to mess with the Ninth Master!
