"It's Ling Xuan?"
Chen Xiao's footsteps suddenly stopped as a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
In his previous life, Chen Xiao and Ling Xuan were not familiar with each other. They had met less than ten times, and the total number of words they had spoken to each other was less than twenty.
However, for a long period of time, he would hear the name "Ling Xuan" every day, almost to the point that he was familiar with it.
This was because Ling Xuan was the girlfriend of one of his few good friends in his previous life, Yu Pengcheng.
At that time, Chen Xiao failed the college entrance examination and broke up with his girlfriend. He spent every day at the Midnight Bar, drowning his sorrows with alcohol. Over time, he became familiar with another drunkard in the bar.
That drunkard was Chen Xiao's good friend, Yu Pengcheng!
From Yu Pengcheng, Chen Xiao learned many stories about Ling Xuan. The only pity was that what he heard was not a perfect love story.
On the contrary, it was a complete tragedy, because when Chen Xiao met Yu Pengcheng, Ling Xuan had already passed away!
"In my memory, Ling Xuan was humiliated and finally jumped into the sea to die. It seems to have happened recently. Could it be that I happened to run into it?"
Chen Xiao squinted his eyes and a cold light flashed in them. He turned around and walked back to the Midnight Bar, which was bustling with activity.
Even if he had never met Yu Pengcheng in this life, Chen Xiao was determined to get involved in this matter. Ling Xuan could be considered an old friend of his.
In the Midnight Bar, the music was loud and the glasses were clinking. Many people who had been suppressed for the whole day came here to let go and vent.
At the bar counter in the distance, a bald, fat middle-aged man was poking the bartender girl's face with his hand. His face was ferocious, and his saliva was splashing everywhere.
"Ling Xuan, Ling Xuan, the alcohol and drinks you wasted added up to at least a thousand yuan, and you even disrupted Brother Cheng's mood. How are you going to explain this to everyone?"
The female bartender named Ling Xuan was in her early twenties, and her pretty face was already filled with tears. "Manager Qian, I, I really didn't know that he was Brother Cheng! And I didn't deliberately spoil this glass of wine, it was Brother Cheng who did it when I was mixing it … "
"Hey, are you saying that this is all Brother Cheng's fault?"
The bald middle-aged Manager Qian sneered coldly, the muscles on his face twitching. Suddenly, he slammed his hand on the bar counter. "How dare you! Not only did you make a mistake, but you're also trying to shirk responsibility. How did our bar hire someone like you!?"
"No, I really didn't mean that!"
No matter how Ling Xuan tried to explain, the bald middle-aged Manager Qian, as well as the group of men and women around them, all turned a deaf ear to her words and continued to tease Ling Xuan, who had completely lost her composure.
Ling Xuan would never have guessed that tonight's encounter was not an accident.
"Done." At this moment, the tattooed man sitting on the sofa suddenly opened his mouth. "Little girl, do you know who my Brother Cheng is?"
He enunciated each word with a ferocious smile on his fierce-looking face. "This Midnight Bar is owned by me. You're earning the bar's salary, which means that half of you belong to me. In the end, you want to mix this kind of trash wine to fool me?"
"But, but …" Ling Xuan still wanted to argue. She had only been working at Midnight Bar for a few days, and she did not recognize Brother Cheng at all. Previously, it was Brother Cheng who had deliberately teased her when she was mixing the wine, causing her to fail in the end.
Between the two people in front of her, one was the bar manager, and the other was the boss behind the bar. She really wanted to just walk away, but that would mean giving up on this job that she had worked so hard to get.
"In front of me, there are no buts."
Brother Cheng's expression was stiff. He knocked on the table and said, "In my territory, I am the rule. Now, you have two choices … "
He had taken a fancy to this Ling Xuan for a few days, but he had not acted rashly. He had endured until today, and finally decided to make a move.
This woman might not have the best appearance, but she had just left the immaturity of a student, and she had the tenacity of a woman in the workplace. In Brother Cheng's eyes, this kind of temperament was simply the best!
'I don't know what happened to Second Young Master some time ago, but he repeatedly told our people to restrain themselves. He said that there was a big shot staying nearby, so I had to endure for more than a week!'
Thinking of the strange order he had received before, Brother Cheng could not help but have a trace of doubt flash in his eyes.
Second Young Master was the boss behind Wei Shicheng, and he had a lot of power in the entire Zuo Hai City. The two of them worked together, one in the black and the other in the white, and they had indeed obtained a lot of benefits in the past few years.
However, Second Young Master had attended a banquet a few days ago, and when he came back, he suddenly issued a strange order to him. He repeatedly warned him not to cause any trouble in the near future, because there was a big shot near his territory, and he was afraid that Wei Shicheng would offend him!
'Motherf * cker, he didn't even tell me who to be careful of, did Second Young Master drink too much and play with me?'
Muttering in his heart, Brother Cheng revealed a sinister smile again, "The first choice, you …"
"There's no need to choose first or second, she won't choose either."
Just as Ling Xuan was in despair, a calm voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Brother Cheng's words. She turned her head and saw that it was an ordinary young student walking towards the bar counter step by step.
Brother Cheng's ferocious face immediately squeezed, revealing a displeased expression. Manager Qian, who was next to him, hurriedly blocked him, "Kid, who do you think you are? How dare you disturb Brother Cheng's business, are you tired of living?"
"We're fine here, hurry up and leave, don't continue to stay here …" Seeing that the person was actually a young man, Ling Xuan could not help but feel even more despair in her heart, but she still tried to persuade Chen Xiao to leave, "This is our bar's internal affairs, you better leave quickly!"
"You still want to leave after disturbing Brother Cheng's mood, how can there be such a good thing in the world!"
Manager Qian reached out to grab Chen Xiao's arm, but he heard Chen Xiao suddenly say, "Who do you think you are? How dare you block my way, are you tired of living? "
As soon as these words came out, the bar counter immediately fell into a sudden silence.
Everyone looked as if they had seen a ghost, staring at the calm young student, completely unable to believe their ears.
"F * ck, what did this kid just say? He actually dared to ask Brother Cheng if he is tired of living? "
"He probably doesn't know who Brother Cheng is, right? He's a favorite of Second Young Master, he can decide his life or death with one word! "
While the group of people were discussing in low voices, Chen Xiao's body swayed, like a phantom, flashed past Manager Qian's fat body, and appeared in front of Brother Cheng.
"Now, I'll also give you two choices."
"Either scram, or die!"
