Sweetie, don't look at him, kiss me.

The car stopped for a while outside the restaurant where Lin Qingmian worked before heading towards the hotel where Ji Linzhou was having dinner that night.

Ji Linzhou's dinner party tonight is a thank-you banquet for a client; there's nothing serious going on.

He has never liked these kinds of business-related flattery occasions, and after politely going through all the formalities, he made an excuse that he had something to do and left.

On their way back, there was a traffic police checkpoint for drunk driving on their route, causing traffic congestion.

The effects of the alcohol that Ji Linzhou drank at the banquet gradually took hold.

Bai Cheng, who was in the front row, noticed the situation and opened the window in the back seat.

A cool night breeze blew in, making the man more awake. He glanced out the car window and realized that they had stopped again outside the restaurant where Lin Qingmian worked part-time.

The restaurant was still bustling.

Among the busy waiters, he could recognize Lin Qingmian at a glance.

She's too beautiful, too eye-catching.

Despite her striking and captivating features, she always appears carefree and always greets everyone with a gentle, sweet, and obedient smile.

They seem particularly easy to bully.

Almost three hours had passed since he brought her here, but the woman showed no signs of fatigue and was as energetic as a spinning top.

It seems that this waiter job, where he's bossed around, is a very good job.

Ji Linzhou loosened his tie, feeling inexplicably annoyed.

If she really needed money, she only needed to say hello to Bai Cheng, and he could provide it with just a tap of his finger.

Why go through all that trouble?

At this moment, the traffic jam started to move.

Bai Cheng immediately started the car and drove forward.

Ji Linzhou frowned, and just as he was about to turn his gaze away from the direction of the restaurant, he saw a drunk man in the restaurant stand up, seemingly wanting to pay the bill.

Lin Qingmian immediately went to greet her, tapping the empty wine bottles on the table with her notebook.

The fat man swayed and almost fell on top of her.

The woman quickly helped him up, trying to help him stand firm.

But the fat man went too far, pressing his entire body against Lin Qingmian and starting to grope her...

"parking!"

A deep male voice suddenly sounded from the back seat, startling Bai Cheng.

He quickly slammed on the brakes, and his body nearly hit the steering wheel due to inertia.

After pausing for a moment, Bai Cheng subconsciously turned around: "Sir..."

The back seat was empty.

At this moment, in the restaurant, Lin Qingmian was being held down by the fat man's shoulders and had no way to break free.

"Sir, you've had too much to drink, please calm down..."

While pushing him away, she turned to her colleagues for help.

This fat man was a regular here. A few people who knew his background pretended not to see him and turned to go about their business.

A few female waitresses tried to come over to help, but they were stopped by the fat man's bodyguards after taking only a few steps.

"Little sister, is this your first time working here?"

The fat man pressed almost half his body against Lin Qingmian, his chubby hand groping her slender waist, which was clad in a red ruffled apron. His voice was lewd: "I took a liking to you at first sight. Ask your boss for leave and come back with me?"

"I guarantee I can make you earn in one night what you couldn't earn in a year of working..."

The sticky, disgusting sound made the veins on Lin Qingmian's forehead throb.

She gritted her teeth, raising her eyes to meet the man's lewd and greedy gaze coldly: "Let go!"

A woman's resistance only fuels a man's passion.

He became even more audacious, even trying to put his hand under Lin Qingmian's apron.

"Bang--!"

Just as the man's hand was about to touch Lin Qingmian's chest beneath her apron, the sound of shattering glass echoed through the restaurant.

The air fell silent instantly.

Everyone stared in stunned silence at the scene.

Two streaks of blood slid down from the fat man's head to his forehead and face.

Several shards of glass were still pinned to his head, and the stench of blood filled the air.

Lin Qingmian threw away the half-broken glass bottle in her hand and took a miniature camera clipped to her apron: "Sir, you sexually harassed me during my work hours, and I have recorded it all."

"My hitting you was in self-defense."

The woman looked up at the fat man, her voice icy: "Now, are you getting out, or am I calling the police and sending you to the police station?"

Ji Linzhou pushed open the restaurant door and walked in just as he heard her words.

The man's gaze fell on her pale face, which was still stained with the fat man's splattered blood.

That delicate and beautiful face was now filled with stubbornness, as if she were determined to fight the fat man to the death.

"Little bitch..."

The fat man wiped the blood from his head, his fleshy face contorting into a menacing expression: "So, you won't listen to reason, will you?

He released his grip, narrowed his eyes, and approached Lin Qingmian step by step: "Since you want to send me to the police station, how about I give you more evidence?"

With that, he opened his arms and charged towards Lin Qingmian like a madman.

Lin Qingmian was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly tried to grab another empty bottle, but her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

Thinking it was one of the fat man's men, she was startled and instinctively struggled while looking up at the person gripping her wrist.

Unexpectedly, what came into view was a man's cold and sharp face.

She was taken aback: "What brings you here?"

Ji Linzhou snatched the empty beer bottle from her hand, his gaze indifferent: "I'll do it."

The next second, the man shielded Lin Qingmian behind him and pushed away the fat man who lunged at him.

Enraged, the fat man charged forward again.

Ji Linzhou took off his expensive suit jacket and threw it into Lin Qingmian's arms. He rolled up his sleeves, grabbed a freshly opened case of beer, picked up an unopened bottle, and smashed it directly onto the fat man's head.

One bottle after another.

His movements were swift, fierce, and ruthless.

He quickly smashed the entire case of beer.

The fat man was already dizzy from being hit so hard that he collapsed to his knees, completely powerless to resist.

The restaurant fell silent instantly.

Even the fat men's henchmen were stunned by the scene, completely overwhelmed by Ji Linzhou's imposing presence.

The man was dressed in an expensive suit, exuding a cold and aloof demeanor, but when he took action, he was terrifyingly calm and ruthless...

After a long while, the fat man covered his head, finally regaining a sliver of reason and strength.

He roared angrily at his men, "What are you all standing there for? Get them!"

Ji Linzhou raised his eyes and gave a cold glance at his subordinates.

His face, with its sharp, cold lines, was still stained with blood that had spurted from the fat man's head.

Those men took a few steps back, not daring to step forward at all.

"teacher!"

At this moment, Bai Cheng parked his car and hurriedly pushed open the restaurant door.

Seeing this scene, he was startled: "This is...!"

"I did the call."

Ji Linzhou turned around, picked up the suit jacket that Lin Qingmian was holding, and draped it over her shoulders.

Then, the man bent down and picked Lin Qingmian up in his arms: "You take care of things here, I'll take her back."
