Chapter 451: Encountering a Drink-Pusher

"Your father and your father-in-law are not on good terms, and after the child was gone, the child's grandfather and maternal grandfather also disappeared one after another; no one knows what happened back then."

"But I can't wait, I really can't wait." He Lingyun has now lost her reason.

"Even if you can't wait, you must wait. Do you know what the child is thinking in his heart? And how do you know he hasn't held resentment toward you all these years?" Mu Xi hissed.

"You are in pain from losing him, but isn't he also? What if he is your son and he cannot accept it? What if he isn't? How will you handle your relationship with him in the future?"

He Lingyun was stunned; she stopped struggling and slowly sat down.

That's right, if he isn't, how should she handle her relationship with Chen Yu? Can they still meet in the future? Would it be awkward if they met?

"So, you must wait." Mu Xi hugged her and said softly, "You have waited for twenty years, can you not wait a few more days?"

"How are you going to investigate next?" He Lingyun steadied herself.

"I will go see Chen Yu first, then go to Yaoshan to inquire about his whereabouts, and then figure out whether your child from back then really died, and if he really died, where he is buried," Mu Xi said.

"Okay, okay." He Lingyun nodded slightly; for now, this is the only way.

Night, a small bar.

Chen Yu sat alone in front of the bar, a cocktail placed before him.

"Handsome, isn't it boring to drink alone?" Suddenly, a woman dressed sexily appeared in front of Chen Yu.

"Not boring." Chen Yu couldn't even be bothered to look at her; this kind of woman who initiates a conversation is one hundred percent a drink-pusher.

"Handsome, don't be so standoffish; you won't find a girlfriend like this." The woman was taken aback, then she giggled, took the initiative to sit in front of Chen Yu, pressed against him, and placed a hand on his thigh.

"How about we have a drink, my treat?" The woman batted her eyelashes at Chen Yu, and without waiting for his consent, she waved at the bartender: "A bottle of Royal Salute."

"Coming right up, please wait a moment." The bartender quickly opened a bottle of liquor and placed it in front of Chen Yu.

"Handsome, don't worry, I'm not a drink-pusher. I just think you're handsome and purely want to treat you to a drink," the girl laughed.

"I'm handsome? When did you go blind?" Chen Yu responded to her without any courtesy.

In all honesty, Chen Yu is not ugly, but he is definitely not the type of handsome that makes women throw themselves at him.

"Handsome, you're being a bit heartless." The girl poured two glasses of liquor and pushed one toward Chen Yu: "You should feel happy and proud to be able to attract the opposite sex."

As the girl spoke, she snapped her fingers: "Open two more bottles."

The bartender at the bar didn't hesitate; as soon as the girl finished speaking, two more bottles of imported liquor were opened.

"Opening so many, can we finish them?" Chen Yu asked.

"We can finish them. Handsome, do you not like this outfit of mine?" The girl batted her eyelashes at Chen Yu: "I have many other clothes. How about I change into a uniform for you to see? Don't you men all like this?"

As the girl spoke, she grabbed Chen Yu, giggled, and said, "Wait for me, I'll be right back."

With that, her figure flashed and she vanished without a trace.

Chen Yu sneered; this kind of tactic is really simple and crude, just forcing a sale?

"Friend, settle the bill for the drinks." Seeing the girl disappear, the smile on the bartender's face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold expression.

At the same time, several large men had surrounded him from the side; if Chen Yu didn't pay the money today, he probably wouldn't be able to leave.

"I didn't drink the liquor, and I didn't ask for it to be opened, don't look at me." Chen Yu drank the cocktail in front of him.

"You didn't ask for it to be opened, but the woman with you did." The bartender sneered: "You two are together; now that she has run off, you should be the one to pay."

"Did I say I was with her?" Chen Yu put down the glass in his hand.

"Cut the crap, want to drink without paying here? That doesn't exist." One of the large men revealed the tattoo on his arm, looking fierce and menacing.

"Fine, how much?" Chen Yu asked.

"Eighty thousand." The large man stated a number directly.

"RMB?" Chen Yu glanced at the large man.

"Of course it's RMB, but I wouldn't mind if you wanted to use USD." The large man grinned.

"What if I don't pay?" Chen Yu said slowly, not taking this guy seriously at all.

"If you don't pay, you won't walk out the door of this bar today," the large man said viciously.

"Wen Ge, don't be like that, let me talk to him." The bartender put down his bar tools, leaned toward Chen Yu and said: "Brother is from out of town, right? Never been to Fengling?"

"Yeah, so what if I'm from out of town?" Chen Yu asked.

"Wen Ge is this in Fengling." The bartender held up a thumb: "He has the connections and the money. I suggest you don't try to be tough with him. How about this, I'm close with Wen Ge, I'll cut it in half, how about forty thousand?"

"Hmm, that's quite a discount." Chen Yu glanced at the bartender and sneered: "If you pay me forty thousand in emotional damages, we can call it even."

"Are you a moron?" Wen Ge was furious: "Kid, are you playing us? Do you think you're funny?"

"That's right, I am playing you. It's truly hilarious; in Fengling, I could actually get scammed by a drink-pusher?" Chen Yu sneered.

"Retard, do it." Wen Ge was enraged; he reached out for a liquor bottle, intending to smash it on Chen Yu's head.

Suddenly, a slender Jade leg kicked out from behind him with a bang, and Wen Ge was kicked to the ground.

Wen Ge was furious and scrambled to get up, but a high-heeled shoe instantly loomed large; bang... his head was heavily stepped on by the high heel, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

The newcomer stepped forward and kicked Wen Ge hard between his legs with her ten-centimeter high heel.

Crack... Wen Ge's eyes went blank, he clutched his crotch and twisted in agony.

The people behind Wen Ge couldn't help but cross their legs, looking at the newcomer in terror.

The newcomer was a woman in a white professional suit with slender legs and an elegant smile on her fair face, but no one could have imagined that such an elegant woman would be so ruthless.

The person who arrived was Mu Xi; she retracted her leg wearing the high heel and spat out one word: "Scram."

"Where did this stinking woman come from, daring to meddle in my, Wen Ge's, business? Men, get her!" Wen Ge struggled to climb up from the ground, clutching his crotch and hissing.

Only then did the people behind him react; it was just a woman in front of them, and a woman had scared them?

A group of people stepped forward to attack, but suddenly, everyone froze.

Wen Ge maintained his posture of clutching his crotch, not daring to move; his scalp felt numb.

Because a pitch-black pistol was pressed against his forehead; although he didn't know if the gun was real or fake, Wen Ge still didn't dare to move.

"Still not scrambling?" Mu Xi said with a smile: "Do you want to test if my gun is real or fake?"

"I don't believe it's real." Wen Ge steadied himself; with gun control so strict nowadays, the gun in this woman's hand must be fake.

Bang... A loud noise rang out, and the scene immediately erupted in screams.

Wen Ge's body trembled violently; he lowered his head, touched his thigh, and then let out a howl like a slaughtered pig.

He collapsed to the ground with a thud, fresh blood streaming down his thigh; the gun was real, and the woman before him had actually dared to fire—was she crazy?

"Do you want to bet on how many bullets are left in my gun?" Mu Xi still wore that charming smile on her face, the gun in her hand pointed at Wen Ge.

"No, please, Big Sister, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please let me go." Wen Ge forced himself to kneel on the ground, begging bitterly.

"If you're wrong, you have to change." Mu Xi smiled slightly: "Within three days, bring the bar-scam woman to apologize and admit your mistake; if you dare to exceed it by even one day, I'll take your Life, get lost."

"Yes, yes, definitely, I will definitely bring her." Wen Ge was truly scared to tears.

"Alright, let's go." Chen Yu was somewhat unable to laugh or cry; Mu Xi was too fierce, daring to use a gun in this kind of situation—he knew that being investigated for this would be very troublesome.

"What are you afraid of? I have a gun permit; do you want to see it?" Mu Xi glanced at him.
