Chapter 76: Ambush at the Bar
The school returned to its usual tranquility, and the incident was like a fleeting cloud that would never return, with no one mentioning it again. Zǐ Yuè also didn't want to recall those unpleasant memories. The dismissal bell rang on time, and Zǐ Yuè hastily grabbed her bag and walked out of the classroom. Ever since Líng confessed to Zǐ Yuè, she had been intentionally avoiding him, and every time this happened, Líng would feel a pang of sadness, while Zǐ Yuè couldn't bear to walk away.
Zi Yue sat listlessly in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window, her mind still reeling from recent events. She suddenly yearned to return to her former self, strong and resilient. She changed out of her simple outfit and five minutes later, she was clad in a sleek black jumpsuit and high-heeled boots, an attire Zi Yue vaguely recalled wearing on missions.
Zi Yue put on that whip with infinite power, buckled it at her waist, and if you didn't look closely, you couldn't see it. She jumped into the sports car and drove to the most prosperous downtown area. She had long heard of a bar called Dark Flame, which was famous for its prosperity, where important figures from all walks of life would gather. It seemed like a good choice, so Zi Yue decided to go take a look.
"Vroom——" Ziyue's Cadillac stopped in front of the entrance of the dimly lit bar, its style was not inferior to her Star Love. Ziyue couldn't help but admire the creator of this place, wondering what kind of mysterious person he was, that could make such a classy place out of the dimly lit bar.
Zi Yue walked in, and the first thing that caught her eye was a huge bar counter with all sorts of drinks on display. There was also a large stage where a singer was performing enthusiastically, and a giant banner with the words "Dark Night" shining with an otherworldly glow. The customers were all enjoying their drinks and the beautiful women, while Zi Yue walked straight to the front and sat down in the corner farthest from the stage, ordering a cocktail and observing quietly.
Zi Yue was savoring the pretty cocktail, when she seemed to have heard something unusual on the stage. She lifted her head and saw that in the center of the stage stood a girl who looked like she didn't know what to do. The girl was about the same age as herself, but she hung her head low, not daring to look at the people in front of her. Her delicate face showed an expression of painful entanglement, constantly blushing and moving backward.
Zi Yue was a bit puzzled. How could this innocent-looking girl appear in such a mixed place? She quietly watched all of this, without speaking or acting.
"Hey, little sister, are you okay? If not, come down and I'll take good care of you!" A ruffian's voice rang out, the girl on stage turned pale with fright.
"Little sister, you're so cute and easy to bully, let your brother protect you, haha!" A man with a lewd appearance rushed onto the stage, pulled the girl down from the stage, and touched her face with his hands. The girl quickly tried to resist with her hands, but didn't expect him to grab her hand, rendering her immobile.
"You little girl, so dishonest, it's your good fortune that I've taken a liking to you, don't be ungrateful!" The lecherous man revealed a vicious expression. The girl continued to struggle incessantly, the terror on her face was heart-wrenching.
The people around seemed to be watching the excitement, and no one came out to manage this matter. They all thought that a woman who could work here would not have self-respect or self-love. Ziyue's fist was clenched tightly, she didn't know why, but she really liked this girl, maybe it was fate, or maybe it was the girl's innocence. At least, she didn't believe this girl was that kind of dirty person.
