I was taken aback by this sudden development.
"What are you doing?" Hurry and get up! " I quickly got up and went to help her.
"Begging for mercy?" I am confused. I don't even know the other party, so where did this' love 'come from?
"That person, that person is your mother's stepson." Xiao Qian then spoke the truth.
It took me a few seconds to react. "You're talking about Zhong Haojie?"
I was really surprised, as I never thought that the one big brother Xiao Qian provoked was actually little brother Zhong Ruoqing.
This Zhong Haojie was famous for being a playboy who did not learn to be good, and loved to bully others using his power the most. Every time I see him, I can't help but think of Xue Pan in "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Seeing me not saying anything, Xiao Qian was probably worried that I would reject him. Not only was he crying even more fiercely, he also kowtowed to me, "Miss Tu, I beg you, I beg you."
How could I bear such a courtesy? I hastily stopped him, "Don't be like this, Xiao Qian, get up first."
She still couldn't get up, so I pretended to be angry and said, "If you don't get up, then this is out of the question."
Hearing me say that, Xiao Qian immediately stood up and handed the tissue box over to her. She took it and took out a few pieces of paper to wipe her face, "Miss Tu, thank you."
She gave a little laugh, and her eyes flashed with gratitude and expectation.
I couldn't help but laugh. Even before agreeing, I had already thanked her. She was trying to embarrass me further by saying no. This little girl was usually rather quiet and honest, but she was actually quite crafty.
According to my usual personality, I would definitely not interfere with this matter. But after interacting with Xiao Qian for so many years, and adding to that, she had taken care of Little Yu, so it eased a lot of my burden. Just thinking that the other party was Zhong Haojie, I felt conflicted.
Just as I was struggling with my thoughts, Xiao Qian's phone rang. No one knew what the other party said, but after hearing it, her expression changed drastically. After hanging up, she excitedly grabbed my hand and started crying, "Miss Tu, I beg of you, help me, help me!"
"What happened?" My heart was thumping with her.
"My brother just went to look for Young Master Zhong and beat him up on the spur of the moment. Now that Young Master Zhong has detained him, he wants me to take the money to ransom him."
I am speechless, I think that Brother Xiao Qian is too impulsive, I do not have any capital, yet you dare to provoke Zhong Haojie alone, isn't this courting death!
"Sister, just help Xiao Qian." Seeing that Xiao Qian was crying, Little Yu could not bear to see me crying, so he advised me.
I thought about it. If I didn't help her, no one would.
"Fine." Reluctantly, I agreed.
Because of our business relationship, Zhong Haojie and I could be considered to be friends. That brat was the same as Lou Cheng, he had a perverted heart towards me and had flirted with me many times, but he was always beaten black and blue by me. Seeing him made me feel sick, but for Xiao Qian's sake, I had to take the initiative to look for him.
I don't know if he'll try to do anything evil by seeing me beg him, but I don't care now. It's more important to get him.
When Xiao Qian and I arrived at the clubhouse and entered the private box, we immediately saw Zhong Haojie sitting in the middle of the sofa with his legs crossed. His left eye and left cheek were swollen to a high point. I guessed that he was beaten up by Brother Xiao Qian.
He didn't see us, and he was reaching into the dress of the barmaid he was holding.
I smirked and glanced to the side. When I saw who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, I was stunned.
Lou Shaotang!
Why is he here too?
We haven't seen each other since we got back from Japan, almost a week ago.
In fact, these days, I always think of him intentionally or unintentionally, whether his hand injury is well? He really wanted to ask Qiao Chenfei, but he was afraid that might be unhappy, so he kept quiet.
I was relieved to see him now holding a glass of wine and sipping it leisurely.
"Yo, who is this?!" Just then, Zhong Haojie shot a glance at me. Shocked, he let go of the woman and stood up from the sofa.
Lou Shaotang originally did not notice me, but now that he called out to me, he looked at me as well.
Our eyes met.
He looked surprised, then frowned, as if he didn't want to see me.
I also slightly creased my brows, feeling a bit uncomfortable inside.
Seeing that he had moved his gaze away and was continuing to drink as if nothing had happened, I smiled at myself and stopped looking at him, turning my gaze towards Zhong Haojie.
Zhong Haojie was already standing in front of me, "Why are you here?" He laughed, his lustful eyes rolling over my face. "You want to talk to me about something?"
"Right." I lifted my lips and smeared them over the smile I'd never given him. "I'm here to show you my gratitude."
I'm wearing a half-naked shirt today, and the spring light is faintly discernible inside, more alluring than direct exposure.
Zhong Haojie's eyes went wide, he swallowed his saliva.
I slapped him in my heart, still smiling. "I heard you arrested someone." I said, "That man is my younger brother. He is young and immature, and he has offended you. I apologize on his behalf." Look, just ignore this lowly person and let him go. "
"Oh ~ So this was the reason." Hearing that I came to plead for Brother Xiao Qian, Zhong Haojie tilted his head, and his pinky scratched his eyebrows as he stared at my chest, smiling even more maliciously.
"Sure." He agreed immediately.
"Don't be in such a hurry!" He walked back to the sofa, picked up the bottle from the coffee table, and poured it into an empty glass. "Come and have a drink with me first."
Looking at the filled wine cup, I sneered in my heart. As expected, he had something to say.
I did not immediately agree, but looked towards Lou Shaotang, wanting to see his reaction.
One was his future brother-in-law, the other his ex-wife. I want to see if he will tolerate Zhong Haojie teasing me in front of him.
To my surprise, Lou Shaotang didn't even raise his eyelids, as if he hadn't heard a thing, as if the thing in front of him had nothing to do with him at all.
My heart sank.
"Alright." I agreed without hesitation.
If he doesn't care, why should I?
I withdrew my gaze from Lou Shaotang and shook my icy cold hand. I smiled lightly as I walked in front of Zhong Haojie and took the wine cup from him.
Just as I was about to raise my hand to drink, I suddenly remembered that I was pregnant, and my hand suddenly stopped.
Strangely, even though I had already decided not to have this child, at this moment, I was actually worried that drinking alcohol would hurt him.
Seeing me in a daze, Xiao Qian timidly interrupted and said: "I, I will drink, I will drink."
Zhong Haojie shouted at her with his angry eyebrows, scaring her to the point that he hid behind me, not daring to make another sound.
I came back to my senses and smiled at him. "Sorry, but I remember that my aunt is here today. You can't drink. If not, I'll treat you to a meal another day."
Hearing that this was an excuse, Zhong Haojie didn't have the patience to beat around the bush. He straightforwardly said: "If you aren't accompanying me, then accompany me."
As he spoke, his hand shot towards my chest.
I quickly blocked, my smile gone. "Zhong Haojie, don't go overboard."
Seeing my straight face, Zhong Haojie laughed and taunted: "Yo, didn't you come to plead for mercy? Is that your attitude when you ask someone?"
"Exactly, since you're here to beg our Young Master Zhong, then you should fulfill whatever request he has." Just as Zhong Haojie finished speaking, one of his lackeys followed suit and said.
Soon after, the rest of the people in the room started laughing and jeering as well.
Sweeping my eyes across them, I hugged my chest and looked at Zhong Haojie with a cold smile.
He was unwilling to give up after having eaten too much at my place in the past. It was not easy to get an opportunity today and he will definitely return the favor. However, I had thought that he would care about Lou Shaotang's dignity and wouldn't be so presumptuous.
Hehe, I have underestimated his shamelessness.
"How is it? Have you made up your mind?" Zhong Haojie approached me.
I wasn't afraid at all. I stood on the spot, curled my lips, and let out a contemptuous snort. "What are you thinking about?"
"Do we just have to do it here, or do we have to find another place to enjoy ourselves?"
As soon as he finished, before I could say anything, he added, "I think it would be more exciting to do it here."
With a lecherous laugh, he grabbed my wrist and shoved me roughly against the wall.
"Zhong Haojie, don't act recklessly!" Seeing that his hand was about to tear at my clothes, I flew into a rage, blocking his hand and warning him loudly.
Just then, seeing that the situation was not right, Xiao Qian anxiously pulled Zhong Haojie's hand, begging him: "I beg you Young Master Zhong, please do me a favor and let my brother go, I will be your slave, anything will do."
Zhong Haojie stopped and looked at her, then turned and smirked at his subordinates: "Brothers, this woman said he wants to be our rider, what are you waiting for!"
"Hahahaha ~" Following a wave of obscene laughter, the brats under Zhong Haojie's command walked towards Xiao Qian one by one.
Xiao Qian was so scared that her face turned pale white, she cried and retreated, "No, no!"
I was shocked. If it was me alone, I would have many ways to deal with these hooligans. But with Xiao Qian here and her being scared by them, if I were to fight with them head on, I would be at a disadvantage.
In a moment of desperation, I looked at Lou Shaotang. "Lou Shaotang." I called out to him, hoping he wasn't too ruthless to stop me.
Lou Shaotang raised his eyes, glanced at me indifferently, put down his wine cup, and slowly stood up.
My taut nerves immediately relaxed, and I secretly rejoiced.
"There's something else. Let's go first. You guys take your time."
After throwing out those words, he tidied his clothes and walked out of the room.
I was completely stunned.
It was hard to believe that he had simply walked away, when I was faced with the insults and scorn of others.
Hearing Bao Xiangmen's closed voice, shock, anger, humiliation … All kinds of complicated feelings interweaved in my chest. My heart felt as though it was being ruthlessly grasped by someone, and I was in so much pain that I could not breathe. Feeling the wetness about to come out, I quickly gritted my teeth and forced it back.
While I was still in a daze, Zhong Haojie started to lose patience with the ground pull and my clothes. Xiao Qian was also pressed down by the few men onto the sofa.
"Wuu, wuu ~ No, no ~"
Xiao Qian's cries for mercy immediately brought me back to reality. Seeing that all the buttons on my shirt had been ripped off and Zhong Haojie's filthy mouth was about to nibble on my chest, I became extremely angry and raised my leg to kick his crotch.
At this moment, the lights overhead were all extinguished. The box that was still brightly lit just moments ago was instantly plunged into darkness.
