Night came to Imperial as the nightclub Spring welcomes its guest to enjoy a good time. Music played loudly and like every other night, outside the door, a crowded of people lined up to enter.
Inside one of the private rooms on the second floor, a group of men no older than thirty immerse in alcohol and women.
There were five in total and each man were from wealthy family. They were dressed in high end brands from top to bottom. Amongst the five men, one of them was none other than Wei Hongyi himself.
He sat on a chair with a gla.s.s of alcohol in hand. Sitting on his lap was a woman with long brown hair wearing a revealing green dress. Standing behind him is another woman, she had short blonde hair and was giving the man a shoulder ma.s.sage.
"Hongyi, what happened to your face?"
Sitting on the right of Wei Hongyi was one of his good friends, Xu You. He couldn"t help but ask as Wei Hongyi"s face was covered with blue and purple bruises. Even one of the man���s eye was swollen black. It was like Wei Hongyi had survived a fall from a mountain cliff.
Wei Hongyi had been quiet ever since he entered Spring. Unlike his usual good mood, he held a sulking expression and was fuming with rage inside.
When he heard his friend"s question, his expression darkens even more. He raise the gla.s.s cup in his hand and downs the drink in one gulp.
How can he tell his friends that he was beaten up? Not only that, it was by a woman.
Thinking about how Yue Ling easily beat the c.r.a.p out of him, all the blood inside him began to boil and he viciously throws the gla.s.s cup to wall causing gla.s.s to shatter everywhere.
"Bring me another drink."
He growls in a commanding tone to the woman sitting on his lap. To which, she quickly stands up from him and walks over to the bar stand in the private room. No woman wants to be beaten black and blue like Zhao Ya"Er, so all they can do is follow Wei Hongyi"s instructions to stay on his good side.
"Bro, did something happen? Why are you in such a bad mood tonight?"
Another man calmly spoke from the left of Wei Hongyi. He had blonde hair down to his shoulder and wore a white suit.
Wei Hongyi glares at the man then to the others. He knows that if he doesn"t explain, they will keep pestering him for an answer.
"It"s that b.i.t.c.h, Ya"Er. I went to her place to ask for her hand in marriage, but she rejected me and ran off to who knows where. I tried chasing after her, but some jerk crashed into my car."
He could only tell his friends half the truth and lie about the rest. If he told them Yue Ling was the one who gave him the bruises, they will no doubt laugh at him.
Hearing his words, all four men in the room were rendered speechless. They were a group of friends who never stick with one woman. However, out of them, Wei Hongyi was the only one who couldn"t let a woman go and that was Zhao Ya"Er.
However, the thing that surprised them more than ever was that none of them thought the man would actually propose to her.
Wei Hongyi ignores the look they were giving him. He also forgets about Yue Ling"s warning as his mind was now filled with rage from how Zhao Ya"Er coldly rejected him.
"I swear, when I find her, I"m going to kill her."
*Bang—
Just as Wei Hongyi spat out his words in a low sinister growl, the tightly shut door to the private room is kicked open by force.
Everyone inside the room jumped at the sound and the five abruptly stood up from their seats. Their eyes glare murderously at the uninvited guest that dare to ruin their good mood.
"Who the f.u.c.k dares to kick the door?!"
Xu You roars out angrily as he turn his head to look at the person. However, when he saw who it was, his entire being froze.
The gla.s.s cup in his hand drops onto the floor and shatters.
"L-L-Lu Tian…"
Standing behind the now opened door was Lu Tian. His tall figure resembles that of a n.o.ble ruler who has caught the people trying to scheme against him. Behind him were Zhi Yifan and Ye Zhongwei.
The man wearing a white suit whose name is Gao Lan was in utter disbelief. He stares at the three men and a cold chill ran down his spine.
"Lu… Mr. Lu, w-why are you here?"
Like Gao Lan, the other men in the room thought the same question as fear spread inside them.
Everyone in Imperial knows that the cold businessman is mysophobia. He will never enter a nightclub for pleasure unless he is after someone"s life. However, here he is, standing in front of them inside Spring.
Could it be that someone is going to die tonight, but who?
Not only that, with him were Ye Zhongwei and Zhi Yifan. Like the coldblooded man, neither men ever enters a nightclub because they found it unnecessary.
Xu You, Gao Lan and the other two men glanced at one another, then turn to look Wei Hongyi.
Everything finally made sense. Lu Tian is here because of he knows.
"W-We will leave you guys to chat in private."
Gao Lan finally muster his courage and spoke in a stammer voice. He kept a crooked smile and quickly gestures with his eyes for everyone to leave.
All the woman inside the room were in awe at the sudden appearance of Lu Tian, Zhi Yifan and Ye Zhongwei.
They"ve only seen the three men from a distance, but to finally see them up close, the rumors were not a lie. All three of them were beyond handsome as one was not inferior to the other. Compare to the five men in the room, they were life dirt to be stepped on by the three men.
However, even if they wanted to stay and admire the three men, they could only force their legs to leave the room.
As the room clear of women, Wei Hongyi"s four friends also prepare to leave. All four men knows about how he (Wei Hongyi) often abuse Zhao Ya"Er like she was stress reliever for his anger, but none of them did anything to stop him as he was their friend.
If they were to stay in this room too, there is no doubt that Lu Tian will not hesitate to unleash his wrath upon them.
Xu You glance at Wei Hongyi and force out a chuckle.
"Hongyi, we"re going now. Take care."
"Who said any of you could leave?"
Out of the three men, it was Zhi Yifan who spoke. The man"s cold expression was not inferior to Lu Tian"s as his eyes scans the remaining people inside the room.
At the same time, Ye Zhongwei smiles a very friendly smile at them and he enters the room. Walking over to the chairs, he sits down on the chair between Xu You and another man.
However, seeing that none of them sat with him, he slightly purse his lips.
"Why do you guys look like you"ve all seen a ghost? Sit down. We"re only here to enjoy ourselves too."
As Ye Zhongwei"s cheerful voice sounds, Wei Hongyi and his friends didn"t not dare to make a move.
Unlike Ye Zhongwei, none of them were not acquainted with Lu Tian. This is their first time standing in the same room with the aloof man.
Lu Tian doesn"t care about the fear he had inflicted on the five men. He leisurely takes a step inside the room as Zhi Yifan follows after him before closing the door.
Unlike their doctor friend, who has a very easygoing personality, the two men were the complete opposite. They were never ones anyone can easily talk to or get near.
"Sit."
Lu Tian calmly spoke as he takes a seat on the chair directly across from Wei Hongyi. However, his deep voice was like thunder to those who heard. His eyes never once moved away from the b.a.s.t.a.r.d man.
As he sat down, so did everyone else.
Wei Hongyi sat down in the same chai he was sitting. Ye Zhongwei sat between Xu You and another man. Across from them, Zhi Yifan sat between Gao Lan and the other man.
With Lu Tian"s sudden appearance and now in the same room as them, the five younger men didn"t dare to make a sound and held in their breath as they pray inside for someone to save them.
