Chu Xingyue remained silent, leaving this situation to Chu Jiaojiao to handle.

Chu Jiaojiao, holding her wine glass, shifted her posture, crossed her legs, and leaned lazily on the edge of the table, looking at Huang Mao and his gang with a languid air. She looked every bit the female hooligan, making the three thugs' hearts skip a beat. A strange sense of danger crept into their hearts. Huang Mao wanted to slap himself a few times. He was used to teasing young girls, but he had never actually done anything. He just talked a big game. The dangerous aura emanating from Chu Jiaojiao made him realize that he had bitten off more than he could chew. He had to be careful, or a safe retreat would be a pipe dream.

Chu Xingyue noticed an undeniable gaze fixed on her. She turned her head and looked up at the slightly open window on the second floor opposite. Because of the backlighting, Chu Xingyue could only make out that there was a man behind the curtain through the open window, and she couldn't see his face clearly. The man on the sofa met Chu Xingyue's gaze, his heart skipped a beat and pounded, and he even forgot to drink the teacup he was holding. He just stood there holding the teacup and staring at Chu Xingyue. Chu Xingyue raised her wine glass and clinked it with the man's glass from a distance. Seeing Chu Xingyue clink her glass with him, the man came back to his senses, clinked his glass with Chu Xingyue's glass from a distance, and drank it all in one gulp.

Chu Xingyue smiled and put down her cup. She didn't take the little incident to heart and let it go.

"What? Didn't you say you'd drink with us? You're already backing out after only a few drinks? You were the ones who decided in the first place, and now you think you can just end it like this? You don't have a say in this!" Chu Jiaojiao put down her crossed legs. Oh! The little white rabbit had turned into a man-eating wolf, its sharp teeth gleaming with a chilling aura.

Five glasses of baijiu were filled to the brim. The blond-haired guy and his companions were shaking and stammering, "Sister, sister, you are my own sister. I was blind to your greatness." "You can leave after you finish drinking. Don't waste food. Liquor is also made from grain, so it shouldn't be wasted either!" The guests at the next table stared in disbelief at what was happening.

Good heavens! Can you imagine this? You're saying two obviously young girls are eating barbecue and drinking baijiu (Chinese liquor) by themselves, without even drinking the beer that everyone usually drinks. Can they be ordinary people?

Huang Mao knelt on the ground with a thud, almost kowtowing. "Sister, no, auntie, you are our aunties, please let us go!" Where did this girl come from? How can she drink so much liquor? Just thinking about all that liquor makes my stomach hurt.

Chu Xingyue then spoke up, "If you don't want to drink, that's fine too. Do you have any objections to paying the bill for everyone here today?"

"Huh?" The blond guy thought he had misheard. That was it?

"Get up, a man's knees are worth gold," Chu Xingyue said, and the group of blond-haired men breathed a sigh of relief. If they had been drunk by the two girls and had to go to the hospital today, they would have lost face. But then they realized there was nothing to be ashamed of. Discretion is the better part of valor. Staring at Chu Jiaojiao's sharp gaze, the group huddled together and paid the bill for the meals. Luckily, there weren't many tables, otherwise they would have had to call for help.

After paying, the blond-haired guy and his gang slunk into their car and sped away from the barbecue restaurant, hoping they would never run into such a brat again when they went out to banter.

With the annoying person gone, the two sisters could finally enjoy the food. Free barbecue and free drinks! They ate and drank happily. The men and women next door, seeing that the two girls' crisis was over, even waived their meal fees. The happiness of young people may not be huge, but it's not insignificant either, and today was definitely a happy day.

The two couples closest to Chu Jiaojiao's table shoved each other as they approached. The short-haired girl spoke up first, "Wow, ladies, you're amazing! We were too shy to say anything just now. Please don't blame us, we're just students, having just finished our college entrance exams and coming out for a get-together. The three people next to me are my classmates. Thank you both for waiving our bill!" The two boys beside her then raised their glasses, "Thank you, ladies!"

"Thank you," the baby-faced girl said awkwardly, her face flushed.
