Ning Ye City?
Zhan Xiaojun's heart sank. Without hesitation, she entered the bar.
The bar was not as boisterous as she had imagined; in fact, it exuded an eerie silence.
Was this bar actually open for business?
Any customer who came in and saw the scene would have thought the bar had gone out of business.
She walked further in.
She saw a line of staff members standing against the wall, heads bowed as if being punished.
Without exception, every one of them exuded an aura of fear.
No one had noticed Zhan Xiaojun yet.
Just then, she saw a familiar face, like a chick being carried by its mother, bringing one person in front of another.
The person was sitting on a chair, with flickering lights beside them, so much so that Zhan Xiaojun hadn't realized someone was sitting there.
Zhan Xiaojun's attention was drawn to a wailing, pleading voice.
"I was wrong, I was really wrong! It was my own overestimation, I was really wrong, please, President Ning, spare me! Wuwuwuwu..."
Yang Yizhi?
When Zhan Xiaojun saw Assistant Liu, she understood why Yang Yizhi had said she was going to die and hadn't called the police.
Because the person she had offended was Ning Ye City.
Why would the usually clever Yang Yizhi provoke Ning Ye City out of the blue?
"I... I just saw President Ning and couldn't control my feelings, and then... I really know I was wrong..." Yang Yizhi, scared, had her head buried on the floor, not daring to move.
She never expected it to turn out like this!
She had just seen the legendary President Ning and had the ambition to fly up and become a phoenix.
Who knew that after she had thrown a flirtatious glance at Ning Ye City, she had encountered many people in the bar, all of whom she had charmed. There were even some who claimed to be variety show directors, scouted her, and wanted her to participate in talent shows.
She thought she could make even more outstanding men like her.
Who knew...
It was over!
She was truly finished!
If there was a chance, she really wanted to go back to the countryside and never come to these big cities again. One wrong step and she had offended a powerful figure. Her life was too cheap, they could take it if they wanted to. She was going to cry herself to death!
At this moment, Yang Yizhi trembled all over with fear.
The bartenders who used to pester her with sweet talk now didn't dare to make a sound.
"Know you were wrong?" Assistant Liu stepped on Yang Yizhi's head.
He didn't care if he was stepping on a woman or not, showing no mercy.
It was as if he was stepping on an ant.
He ground his foot.
Yang Yizhi's hair became disheveled.
"I... I know..."
Assistant Liu knew that Ning Ye City hadn't spoken yet, meaning he was still angry.
In the past, those who overestimated themselves and appeared before President Ning, disturbing his rest, all met unfortunate ends without exception.
But he had never seen such a brainless woman before.
Assistant Liu didn't want to keep his foot there.
He kicked Yang Yizhi's head.
He kicked her viciously, one kick after another.
The people standing nearby were all so scared that they bowed their heads even lower.
Yang Yizhi's screams filled them with dread.
That was Ning Ye City!
The new helmsman of the Ning family in Yan City!
A god-like figure. Yang Yizhi had no brains to provoke him, and now even if she was beaten to death, it would be her own fault.
"Stop."
A clear, cold female voice suddenly rang out amidst the wails and screams.
Everyone immediately looked over.
Assistant Liu found the voice somewhat familiar and followed it.
When he saw Zhan Xiaojun, his eyes widened.
"How is it you?"
Why was this Zhan Xiaojun so persistent, like a ghost?
In just a few days, he had almost forgotten about her.
Only occasionally, when he saw women who looked a bit like her, he wondered if he should send them to President Ning.
But he braked in time, because he was an assistant, not a pimp!
Ning Ye City's well-defined, pale, slender fingers were pressed against his temple. Hearing the voice, he slowly lifted his eyelids.
"Xiao... Xiaojun..."
The moment Yang Yizhi saw Zhan Xiaojun, her eyes lit up. Then she cried, "Xiaojun, save me!"
But as soon as she pleaded, she felt it was wishful thinking.
How could Xiaojun save her?
She was probably scared silly too!
"Xiaojun, hurry and leave, don't mind me. I made a mistake myself, hurry and leave..." Yang Yizhi gritted her teeth, ignoring the pain, and shouted at Zhan Xiaojun.
Zhan Xiaojun glanced at Yang Yizhi.
Yang Yizhi was stunned because she saw Zhan Xiaojun not leaving, but instead walking closer.
"Xiaojun..."
Assistant Liu frowned as he saw Zhan Xiaojun approaching.
"Let her go," Zhan Xiaojun said as she walked up to them. She merely glanced at Assistant Liu before looking at the person who could decide Yang Yizhi's fate.
This was her second time seeing Ning Ye City.
The last time Ning Ye City was unconscious, she could tell he was a handsome man.
But Ning Ye City, with his eyes now open, had an additional cold and gloomy aura about him.
A single glance from him seemed enough to scare the soul out of someone.
But Zhan Xiaojun felt nothing.
She had seen people who could intimidate with their eyes since she was little, almost every day.
She wasn't afraid of her own father, so why would she be afraid of Ning Ye City?
"Release my friend, and let the others leave. I will give you compensation that you will find worthwhile." Zhan Xiaojun's gaze subtly swept over the hand Ning Ye City had on his temple.
Combined with what she saw outside the casino a few days ago, she had a guess.
Ning Ye City's deep, abyss-like cold eyes shifted slightly, "Oh?"
Assistant Liu's eyes widened. "Zhan Xiaojun, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
Worthwhile compensation?
Could it be that she intended to offer herself as compensation?
As expected, the rumors in Yan City were not unfounded. Zhan Xiaojun was indeed shameless enough!
She wanted money, and now she wanted the person too?
"Xiaojun..." Yang Yizhi was so moved that tears streamed down her face. She hadn't expected Xiaojun to be so loyal!
Knowing the danger, she still wanted to save her, and even offer herself to save her.
"Do you know what your friend was trying to do just now?" Ning Ye City's lips curved into a cold smile, his eyes devoid of emotion, as cold as a king who played with power and human hearts from a position of authority.
Zhan Xiaojun's red lips also curved into a smile, a smile that could bewitch people, "I can guess."
"Trying to substitute for her?" Ning Ye City's eyes remained sharp.
Assistant Liu was almost dumbfounded. Was President Ning too out of the ordinary with this Zhan Xiaojun?
Just because she vaguely resembled the White Moonlight, President Ning would break his rules repeatedly?
Zhan Xiaojun's smile carried a hint of coldness. "I don't think President Ning is such a shallow person. What I can promise you is far more important than these superficial things."
Throughout history, in both her world and this one, could most men not think about anything else nutritious?
Were they all just about the parts below the waist?
