Inside the bar.

All eyes were focused on the flashing lights.

To be precise, it's Zhuang Wen's fault.

Zhuang Wen sat upright on a high stool, his gaze calmly fixed on the five or six burly men in front of him.

These burly men were all dressed in black, which further accentuated their muscular physiques that resembled mountain ranges.

In front of them stood a young man in a black leather jacket.

Beside him, a young man with a face swollen like a pig's head stared at him fiercely.

"Brother Fang, he's the one who hit me! You have to avenge me!"

The young man, with a bruised and swollen face, opened his mouth, revealing that he had lost several teeth, causing him to speak with a lisp and unclear speech.

The young man in the leather jacket frowned at Zhuang Wen and asked, "Did you hit him?"

Zhuang Wen glanced at it, then shook his head slightly and said, "It wasn't me."

"W-Why isn't it you?!"

The young man was so angry that he trembled all over.

"Brother, with so many people watching, you can't be afraid to admit your mistake."

The young man in the leather jacket had a half-smile on his face.

What proof do you have that I hit you?

Zhuang Wen looked at the young man and asked doubtfully, "You weren't like this when I hit you, were you?"

"You...you did this!"

The young man pointed angrily at Zhuang Wen, too angry to speak.

The young man in the leather jacket realized that Zhuang Wen was just teasing them.

"Bro, isn't it inappropriate to make jokes like that?"

The young man in the leather jacket spoke in a cold tone.

"Not suitable?"

Zhuang Wen chuckled and said, "Then it's appropriate for him to harass my friend?"

The young man in the leather jacket glanced at the young white-collar worker; just looking at her back, she was quite attractive.

"What man wouldn't want to get to know a beautiful girl? That's perfectly normal."

The young man in the leather jacket smiled. "Don't you know how? I believe you would too."

"Pfft!"

Zhuang Wen chuckled: "I might, but I would never force a beautiful woman to drink, let alone shamelessly force her to drink after she has repeatedly and clearly refused."

The young man in the leather jacket frowned for a moment, then relaxed and said, "I didn't come here to discuss this matter with you. I just want to know, you hit my brother, how are you going to deal with this?"

"Name your price."

Zhuang Wen thought about it and realized that he had indeed gone too far. At worst, he would just compensate him with some money.

"Alright, brother, you're straightforward. I'll name a price then."

The young man in the leather jacket clapped and laughed, "100,000."

Zhuang Wen frowned and said, "Zimbabwean dollars?"

Everyone: ...

"Brother, don't joke with me. I hate joking with strangers the most."

The smile on the young man's face froze, then vanished quickly, his voice icy.

"Haha, it seems we're the same kind of people. I don't like strangers joking with me either."

Facing numerous gazes, Zhuang Wen laughed twice, looking carefree.

He implied that the young man in the leather jacket was joking when he mentioned 100,000.

"Looks like you're not planning to talk to me properly, bro."

The young man in the leather jacket laughed again, but his voice was cold.

"I'm not saying anything more, let's call the police."

Zhuang Wen waved his hand, looking helpless.

The young man in the leather jacket's lips twitched.

"Kid, you're really not afraid of death, are you? You dare to offend my young master Fang? You're asking for it!"

At this moment, a burly man walked out from behind the young man in the leather jacket, staring at Zhuang Wen with a sneer.

Zhuang Wen lowered his eyes and did not answer.

He was wondering if he was skilled enough to defeat these burly men.

"Old Wu, stop wasting time talking to him, deal with him!"

"This guy's a greenhorn, he doesn't even recognize Young Master Fang, he deserves to get messed up!"

"Let's finish this quickly, then we'll find a place to drink later!"

At this moment, the other burly men also spoke up, mocking and encouraging the burly man who had just stepped out to make a move.

"Young Master Fang, what about me?"

The burly man turned to the young man in the leather jacket and asked him eagerly.

Before the young man in the leather jacket could say anything, the bar's security captain appeared with a group of security guards.

"What are you doing?! Fighting is not allowed here, go outside to fight!"

The security captain was a middle-aged man in his forties with short, buzz-cut hair and sharp eyes. His physique was particularly striking; his security uniform couldn't hide his muscular build.

"Oh, it's Brother Yu. My brother got beaten up outside your place, and I want to get justice for him. Could you turn a blind eye? I'll treat you to drinks later."

The young man in the leather jacket clearly recognized the security captain, and immediately greeted him with a smile, then stepped forward and offered him a cigarette.

"Oops!"

"This young man is doomed."

"It's such a pity that a perfectly healthy person is about to suffer inhuman torture!"

Many people looked at Zhuang Wen, whose face remained calm, and suddenly felt sorry for him.

Not only did the onlookers begin to back away, fearing that blood would splatter on them.

Even the charming beauties who had come to chat with Zhuang Wen because of his impressive display of power changed their expressions slightly and quickly dispersed without prior agreement.

They realized that the young man in the leather jacket wouldn't let go of the handsome young man they had their eye on; there might be bloodshed at the bar later!

Although some of them had connections or backgrounds, and even some fame in society, no one stood up for this handsome young stranger.

After all, they weren't even complete strangers.

Besides, they only come to the bar to relax and have fun, and they don't want to get involved in these things.

To everyone's surprise, the security captain did not agree!

Zhuang Wen was also surprised, after all, he was about to stand up and be ready for battle!

"No way! Since this is my territory, I absolutely will not allow any fighting to happen, no matter who you are!"

The security captain refused the cigarette and coldly shouted, "If you want to fight, go outside. Don't disrupt the stability of my place, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

The young man in the leather jacket's expression changed slightly.

In front of everyone, he gave the other person face, but the other person showed him no face at all.

This put him in an awkward position.

"Brother Yu, give me some face, I..."

The young man in the leather jacket tried to persuade him further, but the security captain showed him no respect and said coldly, "Don't even mention it's you. Even if your brother, Fang Gulang, came, I would say the same thing: If you want to fight, go outside. Don't cause trouble in my territory!"

The young man in the leather jacket finally changed color. He glared at the unyielding security captain and said angrily, "I will tell my brother exactly what Brother Yu said."

The security captain remained unfazed.

The young man in the leather jacket took a deep breath, turned to the burly man, and said, "Go shake hands with this brother, and we'll consider today's match over for now."

The young man in the leather jacket turned to Zhuang Wen and said with a sinister smile, "Brother, I won't call the police to arrest you. After all, both you and I were at fault. It's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. Rather than hold a grudge, let's make peace and move on. Shake hands with your brother, and tonight's matter will be over. What do you say?"

Everyone's expression changed, and they couldn't help but gasp as they looked at the burly man's imposing figure!

Everyone could see that the young man in the leather jacket wasn't about to give up and was planning to take advantage of the handshake to really get the other person under his thumb!
