Chapter 564: Who is Bai Lian 223 in the end?_3

It was clear that he wasn’t very familiar with these powers either.

Bar.

At the bar, Xun Chun held a cocktail shaker in her left hand and poured the red liquid inside into a transparent glass full of ice cubes. The spotlights made her face appear hazy and indistinct.

Many eyes glanced over her.

She pushed the red glass towards Xu Wenyao. “Young Master Xu, drink up and leave soon. This place isn’t really suitable for you.”

Xu Wenyao was dressed in a white shirt and black pants, his eyes gentle but with a distinct sense of distance.

An elite demeanor. Since he sat down, many women had come up to talk to him, but he had been focused on the text on his phone.

Xun Chun swept a glance over it and didn’t understand; it was complicated numbers.

Similar to Bai Lian’s behavior, after all, there aren’t many who come to bars to study.

“You still haven’t paid off your debt?” Xu Wenyao’s fingertips rested on the bar. He always felt Xun Chun was a person of contradictions, as if she was like a fish in water at the bar, but through her frivolous surface, he always felt another part of her standing lonesomely at the corner of an iceberg.

Because of Bai Lian, the two were somewhat acquainted. Xu Wenyao asked her why she was always at the bar, and she said she needed to pay off debts.

A regular next to her smiled and passed Xun Chun a few banknotes.

“You believe in the nonsense of drunkards?” Xun Chun reached for a note, casually folded it, then leaned forward and methodically tucked the folded banknote between the first and second buttons of Xu Wenyao’s shirt. “I simply like money,” she said.

Having said that, she straightened up and turned away from the bar.

Xu Wenyao watched her receding figure.

A familiar owner passed by her and offered her a cigarette. Xun Chun bit it between her lips and the owner hurriedly reached out to light it for her, teasingly asking, “Miss Xun Chun, when will you come make drinks in our private room?”

Xun Chun lazily exhaled a cloud of smoke and slowly looked his way. “I’m off tomorrow,” she said.

She made her way to the break room just as Xiaowu also returned. “I’m exhausted. I’ll go see tomorrow if Miss Bai needs anything else.”

“I’ll go too,” Xun Chun flicked the ash from her cigarette, suddenly remembering. “How much do I still owe Young Master Mao?”

Mao Kun had bought her contract from the manager, and since then she had been with Mao Kun’s group, mixing drinks, managing the bar, and occasionally doing some risky tasks for Xiaoqi.

If anyone at the bar was out of line, Xiaowu and Mao Kun would discipline them openly.

Now everyone at the bar knew she was under someone’s protection, and no one dared to behave improperly towards her. Even the manager was very polite to her.

“I don’t know, sis,” Xiaowu scratched the back of his head, looking innocent, “I haven’t even finished paying off Miss Bai.”

He had never calculated how much he owed Mao Kun.

The next day.

Bai Lian still went to the university library to read.

Around six in the evening, she left the school gate together with Xu Wenyao and Chen Hong. Xu Zhiyue was coming back today, and Xu Wenyao was going to the Xu Family, having invited Chen Hong for dinner.

Bai Lian took a ride with Xu Wenyao back to the apartment.

Xu Wenyao sat in the driver’s seat, glancing in the rearview mirror. “Are you really not coming today?”

“No,” Bai Lian rested her hand on the car window while looking at her mobile phone and spoke to Xu Wenyao in a drawn-out voice, “I have a friend coming over.”

Xu Wenyao nodded his head.

In the passenger seat, Chen Hong was very disappointed to hear that Bai Lian wouldn’t join them.

The car had just turned from Zior Avenue onto Sally Road.

Sally Road was a small street, rather empty unless someone was specifically heading to Shanhai Apartment.

Chen Hong instantly noticed people fighting about a hundred meters away. “Old Xu, should we report…”

He just started speaking when he saw Xu Wenyao hit the brakes hard.

In the back seat, Bai Lian also looked up and immediately saw Xiaowu and Xun Chun not far away.

She got out of the car.

Xiaowu, with his red hair, was pinning a burly man in black down under his foot.

Xun Chun wore black shorts, a white tank top, and an over-shirt in a tartan pattern, standing with her arms crossed under a tree three steps away, watching the fight.

Chen Hong, witnessing a fight for the first time, saw Bai Lian approach and quickly unbuckled his seatbelt to follow. “Junior Sister, be careful!” he called out.

As the two walked closer.

Xiaowu was bawling, looking up at Bai Lian, crying while saying, “Sis, they hit me.”

Chen Hong looked down at the three big men Xiaowu had beaten to the ground and then back up at the tear-streaked Xiaowu…

He fell into a deep self-doubt.

Xun Chun straightened up when she saw Bai Lian and promptly reported the situation. “Miss Bai, they were looking for me. We were fortunate Mr. Xiaowu was here.”

She was terse and clear.

Bai Lian, with a stack of books in her right hand, glanced at the man in the middle and slowly crouched down.
