Chapter 735: I Was Definitely Right!

~7 min read 1,232 words

"Get out of the way! The big brother isn't someone filthy like you can get near," Jiang Chuan lifted his foot and kicked the few people away.

"Stop wasting words with them. They're all grown men with hands and feet, yet they love to vie for glory, be jealous, and sell themselves for promotion. Even if others haven't offended you, just because they're more handsome or stronger than you, you want to kill them. Why keep such vicious, cruel people around?"

Zhong Yu impatiently waved his hand at Yao Rao's subordinates.

"Quickly drag them out; don't dirty our eyes!"

Yao Rao turned her head toward Yue Moli.

Yue Moli casually flicked his hand: "Don't dirty other people's place."

"Stop howling, hurry up!" Yao Rao's subordinates, upon the order, immediately lifted the stunned Zheng Jingjing, the young man in white, and others out of the private room.

When they reached the doorway, the dazed Zheng Jingjing suddenly came to her senses, struggling desperately while crying and shouting.

"Second Elder, please save me! I truly didn't know he was the Wolf King; you must save me! You have to rescue me!"

"You go find the Economic Emperor! Don't we pay dues every month? Go find her and save me!"

The Second Elder turned his head away, acting as if he hadn't heard.

What status does the Economic Emperor have, and how would she care about such a trivial matter?

Moreover, the Zheng Family pays dues on time only because their main house lies within Thorn's sphere of influence; that doesn't mean the Thorn Emperor will back them.

Besides, even if the Thorn Emperor were willing to help the Zheng Family, it would be directed at the family head; Zheng Jingjing is nothing, and she shouldn't expect the Emperor to meddle in her petty affairs.

"Second Elder, please save me!"

Zheng Jingjing's cries grew increasingly desperate, yet the Second Elder didn't even glance at her.

In the end, Zheng Jingjing and the others were still dragged out of the private room.

Yue Moli glanced at the Zheng Family's Second Elder and said.

"You may leave as well."

"Queen, Lord Wolf King, today it's my family's unfilial, immature daughter; I'm here to make amends for her, so I ask you, esteemed elders, to be generous and not to engage with her on equal terms."

The Second Elder finished with a forced smile and then slunk away.

"Heh…" Zhong Yu looked at the Second Elder's back, a cold sneer in his voice, "the scheming old fox, ever since you were gone, he's been trying to seize Azure Wolf Hall's territory!"

"So unlucky, my good mood is gone!" Jiang Chuan pushed the mixed‑blood woman aside, "Alright, let's go; I won't come back to this dump again!"

"Hmm, it's getting late." Xu Tian, who never liked such smoky, noisy venues, naturally welcomed Jiang Chuan's suggestion to leave.

"Let's go, let's go!" Zhong Yu, habitually reaching to grab Xu Tian's arm, caught Yue Moli's slightly amused gaze, suddenly realized something, withdrew his hand sheepishly, and was the first to exit the private room.

Xu Tian didn't notice the girl's change and proceeded outward.

The group stepped out of the elevator and saw dozens of men in black clustered around a woman in a black dress a short distance ahead, heading toward the Bar's main entrance.

"Who is that woman? Such a big ego…" Zhong Yu, who was at the front, sighed.

Xu Tian looked up at the direction mentioned, and when his gaze landed on the woman, his pupils suddenly contracted.

Xu Tian, hearing the words, looked up toward the nearby direction, and when his gaze fell on the woman, his pupils suddenly narrowed.

He would never be mistaken; the woman surrounded ahead must be Tang Bingyan.

But Tang Bingyan despises noisy, chaotic environments and lives a chaste life; how could she possibly come to such a place?

With doubt, Xu Tian instinctively chased after them.

"Tang Bingyan!"

"Big brother! Why are you leaving so fast!"

Zhong Yu called from behind Xu Tian, but he could no longer pay attention.

Zhong Yu sounded behind Xu Tian, but he was already unable to pay attention.

At this moment, the woman in the black dress had already gotten into a sleek car at the Bar's entrance; as the bodyguard was about to close the door, she suddenly glanced toward the Bar's doorway.

Just now, she seemed to have heard a familiar voice.

A voice she missed intensely, unforgettable for a lifetime.

"Bingyan sis, what are you looking at?" Lin Shanshan, sitting beside the woman, asked with a puzzled expression.

"Nothing." The woman in the black dress replied lightly.

"Bingyan sis, you're not yourself." Lin Shanshan, a bit worried, asked, "Did you see something?"

"Did you just hear someone call me?" the woman in the black dress whispered.

"Huh? No?" Lin Shanshan was quite surprised.

"I heard it, and the voice is very familiar…" the woman in the black dress frowned, "It sounds like Xu Tian's voice."

"Xu Tian? How could that be?" Lin Shanshan said helplessly.

"Bingyan sis, you're missing him too much; you're hallucinating!"

"How could Xu Tian get to Wuji Dao? He's still in Jiangcheng! You must have misheard!"

"I don't think I misheard." The woman in the black dress kept her gaze fixed on the Bar's doorway outside the car window, but there was no figure she had longed for.

"Then explain how an ordinary person could reach Wuji Dao?" Lin Shanshan added, "He has no travel permit now; it's impossible for him to set foot on the island."

Tang Bingyan remained silent, her gaze still fixed outward.

"Let's go." Lin Shanshan said to the driver.

The car started and quickly left the Bar Street district.

"Bingyan sis, after this return, everything in Jiangcheng will no longer be our concern; that's your decision," Lin Shanshan sighed, "But can you truly forget?" wap.

The woman in the black dress ignored Lin Shanshan's words, and the car's interior was suffocatingly quiet.

"Bingyan sis, why are you doing this again? You clearly can't forget, yet you force him to stay in Jiangcheng."

"I know you're doing this for his sake, to make him forget what happened, to live under a new identity; only then can his later life be stable and carefree, and he can completely erase the past he cannot face."

"However, once you make this decision, there's no turning back."

The woman in the black dress still said nothing; those eyes as deep as the Deep Abyss stared at the scenery rushing past the car window, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

……

Bar lobby.

Zhong Yu chased to the doorway and grabbed Xu Tian's arm.

"Brother One, what are you looking for?"

Xu Tian watched the convoy disappear, froze for two seconds, and then realized.

"It's nothing, I think I saw a familiar face."

He pushed aside Zhong Yu's arm without showing any emotion, and said calmly.

"Familiar face? I think I just heard you call Tang Bingyan—who is Tang Bingyan?" Zhong Yu asked curiously, "It can't be your lover outside, can it?"

"Don't talk nonsense," Xu Tian tapped Zhong Yu's forehead.

"Tang Bingyan?"

From a short distance away, Yue Moli squinted slightly and muttered softly.

"I must have guessed right! Otherwise you couldn't have struck so hard!" the little girl said, pouting a bit in grievance.
