Chapter 277: Night Invitation
"Miss, you seem drunk and it's not convenient for you to go home. How about I take you there?"
"Yeah, if you don't want to go back, you can come to my place. It's big enough, surely there's a place for you to rest."
At the entrance of a bar, Huang Lili dressed in casual attire, her face flushed, seemed to have drunk quite a lot, her eyes bleary, even standing was a bit unsteady.
Beside her were two middle-aged men with wicked grins, their greed and ill intentions openly displayed on their faces.
The two surrounded Huang Lili, giving her no chance to leave, constantly probing with words, their eyes sweeping over her full chest and long legs.
Huang Lili, having drunk too much, her mind muddled, head spinning, could only try hard to shake off the hand attempting to grasp her wrist, frowning, she said: "I don't need you to take me..."
Huang Lili's refusal didn't deter the two men; instead, her resistance made them even more excited.
Passersby who saw the scene frowned slightly.
Some tried to help Huang Lili out, only to be glared back by the two men's fierce looks.
The two men seemed like repeat offenders, naturally exuding a rogue aura that deterred bystanders from getting into a conflict.
In this society, perhaps some are still willing to lend a helping hand, but those willing to sacrifice their own interests to help others have become very few.
By now, Huang Lili's mind was becoming even more groggy under the influence of alcohol.
Originally, because she broke up with her boyfriend today and was in a bad mood, she drank quite a bit at the bar alone, hoping to drown her sorrows, but unexpectedly encountered a bigger problem.
If it were normal times, she could still rely on her calmness and rationality to find ways to protect herself.
But in her current state, she only felt like an injured lamb among a pack of wolves, a sense of despair and regret arose within her.
Just when she was at a loss, she suddenly heard a familiar voice, startling her.
"Manager Huang, what are you doing here?"
A young figure in a high-end suit was walking leisurely from the side of the road.
"President Li?"
Huang Lili turned to see the young familiar face and couldn't help but slightly widen her eyes, then, like grabbing a lifeline, she quickly tried to approach, saying: "President Li, I..."
"Where are you from?"
Just as Huang Lili was about to walk towards Li Jing, the fat middle-aged man standing beside her intentionally blocked her path, then glanced up and down at Li Jing, looking irritated.
He had finally spotted such a perfect yet drunk woman at the bar entrance with his friend and was about to succeed when he got interrupted by Li Jing's sudden appearance, igniting a fire of anger in his heart.
The other, relatively thinner middle-aged man also stepped forward to look at Li Jing, squinting slightly with a hint of threat, saying: "We're her friends. She's had too much to drink. We can handle this, you don't need to meddle."
"You're her friends?"
Li Jing found it somewhat amusing: "Does she know about this?"
"No, President Li, I don't know them at all..."
"I don't care if you're some President Li or President Zhang, I'm advising you to mind your own business."
Huang Lili's words were interrupted again, as the two middle-aged men tacitly blocked the space between her and Li Jing, glaring coldly at Li Jing:
"Brother, I'll kindly advise you one last time. Just do what you need to do. We're her friends, we'll take her home later, don't bring trouble upon yourself."
Saying this, the fat middle-aged man deliberately rolled up his sleeves, revealing the menacing tattoos on his arm.
Li Jing slightly raised an eyebrow at this, knowing reasoning wouldn't work, so he turned to two men not far away and said:
"Ah Liang, Xiaolong, could you do me a favor and take my friend home together?"
Ah Liang, who had already noticed the problem, immediately responded and, along with Xiaolong, approached quickly.
Previously, they thought Li Jing was acquainted with all three, so they stayed at a distance without approaching.
Now realizing the odd behavior of the two middle-aged men, Ah Liang, without needing explicit instruction from Li Jing, directly walked up to the fat tattooed middle-aged man, grinning coldly: "Old brother, nice tattoo. Want to compare it with mine?"
After saying this, Ah Liang took off his jacket, revealing his robust body under a black tank top.
On his muscular arms were indeed full tattoos, even Li Jing was a bit surprised.
Ah Liang had actually tattooed his whole arm?
Li Jing recalled that Zhou Shun seemed to have hung around Tianhai in his youth and later returned to the right path, opening a gym with friends, and suddenly it all became clear.
Meanwhile, Xiaolong also took off his clothes. Although without tattoos, his rock-hard muscles were equally intimidating.
In the face of Ah Liang and Xiaolong's massive physiques, the two middle-aged men seemed like little chicks, naturally half the size of their opponents.
"W-What do you want to do?!"
The fat middle-aged man was startled by Ah Liang's aura, especially seeing those full-sleeve tattoos and arm muscles twice his size. His heart skipped a beat.
He glared at the two tall and strong men in front of him, putting up a brave front while feeling cowardly inside: "This is a legal society now, you wouldn't dare to hit people?!"
Ah Liang sneered: "Go ahead and call the police if you dare, by then this lady will also go to the station, let's see who suffers more."
Beside him, Xiaolong stepped forward, staring into the trembling eyes of the opponents, and said deeply, "Garbage like you disgusts me, either fight or get lost, your choice!"
