I was exposed for adding my female boss to my group of female friends.

"In you, I see arrogance, conceit, ignorance, and vulgarity. Your despicable behavior has opened my eyes and is more exciting than watching a movie."

"To recognize your fun, I've decided to have our beloved Sister Hua give you all a good lesson."

After saying that, he held the bottle of cocktail and poured it directly over Sister Hua's head.

Not a single drop was wasted; it was all poured over Sister Hua.

The icy liquid slowly trickled down her permed hair, flowing onto her cheeks and ruining her carefully applied makeup.

The black eyeshadow dripped down the liquid, forming a dark, ghostly mass.

"Aa ...

Sister Hua screamed in agony.

Chapter 215 Husband, say something!

Sister Hua cried out, her hair still dripping wet. Just thinking about how much saliva from countless people was contained in that liquid made Liu Ruying feel nauseous.

At this moment, her hair resembled aquatic plants like water lilies, which, when you think about it, made her somewhat like a siren.

Chen Ya dragged a chair out from under the table and plopped down in it, sitting right between Sister Hua, who was still screaming, and Young Master Xu, who looked incredulous.

He picked up the Zippo lighter from the table, crossed his legs, and took a peanut from the cold dish on the table. As he peeled it, he said:

"Stop yelling, just make a phone call and tell your background to come over."

Sister Hua stopped, panting heavily.

Chen Ya cracked peanuts while keeping his eyes on her.

"Didn't you want to teach me a lesson? Come on, call your friend over here, let's see how he deals with me."

"I'll kill you," Sister Hua announced. "I'll skin you alive and cut you into a thousand pieces!"

No one dared to touch the table.

Sister Hua's henchmen tried to rush forward, but were stopped by the crew-cut man.

He could tell from the beginning that Chen Ya had considerable strength. If they rushed at him, they could capture him, but if they hurt Sister Hua, they would be guilty of a terrible crime.

Moreover, Sister Hua is currently covered in alcohol, and Chen Ya is playing with a lighter in his hand. What if he has a moment of madness and sets Sister Hua on fire? What would they do then?

Therefore, we must never act rashly.

The group of people sat there, and not a single one dared to move.

Chen Ya played with the lighter for a while, and seeing that no one dared to come up, nodded in approval of their wisdom. He then turned to Sister Hua and said:

"You make the call."

Chen Ya took the scarf draped over the back of Xu Dashao's chair next to him, and casually tossed it to Sister Hua, saying:

"Here, wipe it off."

Young Master Xu stared at him, but surprisingly didn't dare to say a word.

Every move this person makes is unexpected. Liu Ruying thought to herself.

Sister Hua's lips moved, but in the end she used her scarf to gently rub the liquid out of her hair.

Young Master Xu looked at Sister Hua. He really wanted to remind her that his scarf was a limited edition Hermès, but in the end he didn't say it.

"Clear the area." Sister Hua moved her lips and said to her underlings in front of her, "Clear the area! Did you hear me? I told you to clear the area!"

The crew-cut man moved his lips and whispered, "Sister Hua, Big Brother might be meeting with his superiors right now..."

"His woman is being bullied like this, how can he talk business?" Sister Hua shouted. "Clear the place now! Within three minutes, I want only our people left here!"

After saying that, he turned to Young Master Xu and said, "You go too."

Xu Haoyu's expression changed several times, first with confusion, then with sudden realization, and finally with fear.

He glanced back at Liu Ruying, who was huddled in the corner, then turned to Sister Hua and said:

"Sister Hua, could I... take Miss Liu with me as well?"

"No, they both have to stay. You go."

Sister Hua stated this clearly.

Xu Haoyu's expression turned worried and helpless.

If Sister Hua were to clear the area and call that person over, perhaps... the two parties involved wouldn't end up with a "good ending."

To be honest, today's events were all his fault. If he hadn't gone to meet Liu Ruying, and if he hadn't asked his underlings to help suppress Chen Ya's arrogance, Sister Hua wouldn't have lost face in front of all her underlings today.

Because of this "hate the house and its crows" mentality, Sister Hua has started blaming herself as well.

Young Master Xu understands.

Now that he understood these things, he dared not linger any longer.

"Sister Hua, then...then I'm leaving." Young Master Xu immediately got up and started packing his remaining clothes.

As for the scarf... he simply pretended it didn't exist.

Finally, he glanced at Liu Ruying one last time.

He then sighed deeply to himself.

His eyes seemed to say: This is the one you chose.

You should have been with me, surrounded by distinguished guests, enjoying a lively gathering.

Now, I am a guest of honor, while you are a prisoner.

Xu Haoyu sighed deeply:

"Take care of yourself."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Since the area is being cleared out, it's time to welcome "that person".

If he's lucky, he might find Liu Ruying's name on the prison roster someday after he's dealt with "that person" so badly.

If she's unlucky, her name will end up in the news.

Whether one is lucky or not depends on "that person's" mood and what Sister Hua says to him.

"Walk."

He nodded to the astronomy club boy who was already frozen in fear, and the two walked out the door together.

By this time, the bar had been cleared out immediately. Diners and drinkers alike were all ushered outside.

Several college students who had only played half of a board game stood with their heads tilted to the side, frowning in protest. Some even shouted "Complaint!" and "Never coming again!" But after being glared at by Sister Hua's subordinates, they didn't dare to say anything more.

Xu Dashao and the boys from the astronomy club remained silent the entire way until they reached their car, at which point they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did they realize that their foreheads were covered in cold sweat.

The sense of oppression just now was really too strong.

"Brother Xu, what's going on? What should we do next?" asked a male member of the astronomy club.

"What to do? There's nothing to do." Young Master Xu sighed. "Go home, wash up, and go to sleep. Tomorrow morning, forget about this, forget about that scoundrel, and forget about Liu Ruying."

The astronomy club member stared at him in disbelief: "Holy crap, is it really that extreme?"

"What do you think?" Young Master Xu glared at him, lit a cigarette, and his hand was trembling slightly.

"Young Master, um, who exactly is Sister Hua's background?" the male student from the Astronomy Club asked cautiously.

Young Master Xu glanced at him, seemingly assessing whether he was qualified to know the news. After considering for a long time, he whispered something in his ear.

"I rely on!"

After hearing this, the male member of the astronomy club jumped back like a startled cat.

"No way, it's that hard?" The boy was shocked and said in an exaggerated tone, "I've only heard of this person's name in legends, but I've never seen him in person."

"Then you'll have to see it for yourself," Young Master Xu said quietly.

"Young Master, aren't we going to run?" the boy asked.

"Why are you running? Can't I park the car here and take a look from a distance?" Young Master Xu said. "Otherwise, why would I drive up here to hide?"

The boy nodded; "You're right."

……

After Young Master Xu left, only three or five people remained in the room: Chen Ya, Sister Hua, Liu Ruying, and two of Sister Hua's younger brothers.

Even the young ladies they invited to keep things quiet were kicked out.

Chen Ya sat very close to Sister Hua, still picking at the clean things on the table to eat, the peanut shells piled up in front of him, forming a small bulge.

Liu Ruying sighed and sat down to the side.

Chen Ya turned to look at her and said, "Aren't you scared?"

Liu Ruying said blankly, "If being afraid can prevent everything from happening, then I can be afraid now, I'll be afraid to death."

Chen Ya smiled and said, "You're quite calm."

Liu Ruying felt helpless.

She actually understood the look in Xu Haoyu's eyes before he left: "This is your own choice."

Yes, she chose it herself.

If she could argue, she would definitely say, "I am truly innocent!"

Unfortunately, she didn't have that opportunity.

She knew that Chen Ya was someone who had worked his way up from the countryside to achieve semi-financial freedom, so he must have some skills, but it was still... too much of an underestimation of people from the capital.

Any one of these people would be a giant in Jiangcheng. The sheer number of talented individuals here is something Chen Ya, coming from a small town, could never imagine.

She had also considered whether she would leave if given the chance to do so with Young Master Xu. After struggling with this internally for a long time, she still couldn't reach a conclusion.

If I had known it would turn out this way, would I have quietly and peacefully sat down at this table with Xu Haoyu when he invited me, and greeted Sister Hua with a smile?

Of course, all of this is now beyond verification and will never have an answer.

She sat there, feeling utterly desolate.

"Unfortunately, I don't know who Sister Hua's 'friend' is," Liu Ruying said.

Sister Hua had calmed down by now, but her complexion was horribly pale, looking like a piece of black iron that had been quenched and then turned completely cold.

"You'll find out soon enough," Sister Hua said coldly. "But I can tell you in advance that my man's name is Pei Hu."

"Pei Hu?!" Liu Ruying exclaimed in surprise.

She had heard that Sister Hua's backer had a powerful background, but she never expected it to be Pei Hu.

Compared to Liu Ruying's startled reaction, Chen Ya remained unmoved.

Hua Jie scrutinized Chen Ya's expression and, finding it completely unmoved, secretly sneered inwardly.

That's why they say ignorance is bliss.

This guy is clearly from a small town; his perspective is limited. He doesn't even know Pei Hu's name.

Chen Ya turned to Liu Ruying and asked, "Do you know Pei Hu?"

Liu Ruying nodded and said, "Don't you know? Pei Hu is the chairman of Yangchen Group. He... has a lot of influence."

"Great energy? How so?" Chen Ya tilted his head and asked.

Liu Ruying said, "Every time Pei Hu gets off the plane, there are always more than a dozen people waiting for him in advance; he also has several of the best hunting rifles in the country. If wild boars, bears or the like are found anywhere, they will notify him and he will take his private plane to hunt for fun; even in the capital, Pei Hu is a big shot. Even people from the Gu family have to give him some face when he is mentioned."

"I see," Chen Ya said, then asked, "Do you know all the famous figures in the political and business circles in the country?"

Liu Ruying sighed helplessly: "What time is it, and you're still talking about this?"

She paused for a moment, then added, "I've also heard that he's killed people."

After that, there was a long silence.

Finally, she added, "But I don't know if it's true."

"Oh." Chen Ya nodded, looking thoughtful.
