Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot-Chapter 1113 - 656: Protecting You with Just Cause, Give Me a Chance (Part 2)

After a few people left, they let out a long sigh of relief, scared out of their wits. They were afraid of Qi Zeyan but couldn’t show too much cowardice in front of their companions. As they walked, they started bragging again.

Little did they know, Qi Zeyan was right behind them. The bar was dimly lit, and since Jiang Chengsi was hosting an event recently, the bar was crowded. They didn’t really notice.

"... Even Qi Shao has to save face. Publicly admitted to liking someone, then those photos got leaked. Was she two hundred pounds? Even a pig isn’t that heavy."

"Can Qi Shao even lift her?"

"As long as she looks good now."

...

It wasn’t until they were almost at the private room that they noticed Qi Zeyan had been following them.

He didn’t mean to follow them deliberately; he was just heading back to the private room himself.

Qi Zeyan always thought that discussing a girl’s looks or figure was a low act, especially when a group of men got together and started bragging. Moreover, this time, they were talking about Ruan Mengxi. Already feeling stifled and having drunk a bit, he couldn’t stand it any longer.

One of the men who was speaking the loudest didn’t have time to react before Qi Zeyan yanked him out and punched him hard in the nose.

Qi Zeyan hit him ruthlessly, quickly, and decisively.

The man screamed continuously, his face half-covered in blood.

The people around were dumbfounded. After all, this was one of their own. Some tried to intervene, only to end up joining the brawl.

**

Jiang Chengsi had been playing chess, contemplating his next move. Time always passed quickly when he was thinking, so he didn’t notice how long Qi Zeyan had been gone.

It wasn’t until a staff member came over, saying Qi Zeyan was fighting with someone, that he cursed under his breath.

"Damn it, Qi Zeyan, you’re always causing trouble for me..."

As Jiang Chengsi ran out, Ruan Mengxi also arrived. Seeing his urgency and sensing that something was off in the bar, she peeked into the private room, which was empty, and followed him out.

By this time, Qi Zeyan and those men had been separated by security and staff.

"What’s going on?" Jiang Chengsi looked at one of the men, beaten with a bloodied face, and felt a headache coming on.

"Mouthy, asking for trouble." Qi Zeyan sneered, "Really think you’re someone? What business is it of yours how a girl looks? Do you get to run your mouth?"

"Trying to gain superiority over a woman, do you even count as a man?"

"Even if you weren’t talking about her today, I’d still beat you up."

The smell of alcohol mixed with anger flared relentlessly.

From the tone of his voice, everyone could more or less figure out what had happened. Moreover, the people opposite knew they were in the wrong, most of them remained silent. Only the person who was beaten the worst couldn’t swallow his anger and kept glaring at him.

"Try glaring at me again? A few drinks and you forget what kind of trash you are, huh?"

"Making women a topic of conversation is the lowest thing a man can do."

"Zeyan!" Jiang Chengsi, seeing his anger rise again, hurriedly pulled him back.

"Don’t hold me, you have no idea how disgusting their words were, what kind of garbage?"

"I’ll handle it."

"Look at that look in his eyes, still seems pretty defiant? At this point, Qi Zeyan felt the other arm being held, "Don’t pull me, I’ll beat this kid so hard his own mother won’t recognize him."

"Qi Zeyan." Ruan Mengxi’s voice.

"I told you, don’t pull me, I..." Qi Zeyan was still tugging at his arm, trying to break free. It seemed he was a bit slow because of the alcohol, and after a few seconds, he realized the familiar voice and turned to see Ruan Mengxi.

The onlookers witnessed someone going from furious rage to instant calm.

They were dumbfounded...

Qi Shao, you might as well start performing face-changing opera.

"You..." Qi Zeyan hadn’t expected Ruan Mengxi to come over, and the thought of him fighting just now filled him with shame and anger. He shot a glare at Jiang Chengsi.

Why didn’t you tell me she was coming!

He was not young anymore, acting like a clueless youth getting into fights was really embarrassing.

Jiang Chengsi didn’t know Ruan Mengxi had arrived either, "Xiaoruan, take him to my office area, I’ll handle things here."

As the boss, Jiang Chengsi certainly had his own office space.

Once Ruan Mengxi arrived, someone immediately became compliant, obediently following her to the other side while Jiang Chengsi pinched his brows, wondering what he had been thinking, asking him out for drinks? Wasn’t this just asking for trouble?
