Yao Yao said confidently, "At least I can guarantee that he won't be like those perverts who take advantage of you."

Jiang Yimei could only be skeptical of this statement.

Because Lin Congzhi would sometimes take advantage of her.

Now that things have come to this, there are only two paths to choose from: either agree to Lin Congzhi's request or leave alone.

Having gone through so much trouble to get here, it would be a waste of not only physical strength but also a great deal of money and time if we came back empty-handed.

She is already heavily in debt, and if no measures are taken to remedy the situation, she will be completely controlled by Lin Congzhi.

She didn't want to see that situation, nor did she want Yao Yao to leave disappointed, so she reluctantly said, "You can hold my hand, but you have to keep a proper distance. At least you can't touch my body except for my arm."

Lin Congzhi readily agreed: "OK!"

He just wanted a sense of ritual, not to take advantage of Jiang Yimei, so he listened to Jiang Yimei's every word.

After reaching an agreement, Jiang Yimei returned and waited for Lin Congzhi to call her.

Lin Congzhi didn't hesitate either; he took out his phone and made a call.

Seeing that he was chatting and laughing calmly, seemingly capable of resolving the matter, the ticket inspector immediately became much more respectful.

Less than a few seconds after the call ended, the ticket inspector's walkie-talkie rang.

Upon hearing the manager's instructions, he immediately and respectfully invited Lin Congzhi, Jiang Yimei, and Yaoyao inside, without showing any temper.

Before going in, Lin Congzhi raised his hand, gesturing for Jiang Yimei to put her hand down.

Jiang Yimei was very reluctant, but in the end she gritted her teeth and went ahead with it.

Hand in hand, the two stepped inside, while Yao Yao tactfully kept her distance from Jiang Yimei to avoid an awkward situation.

Holding Jiang Yimei's hand on such a formal occasion was something Lin Congzhi had always dreamed of since entering society and starting his business.

Back when he was abroad, whenever he attended such parties, he always wished he had his beloved woman—Jiang Yimei—by his side. However, he could only repeatedly refuse the advances of women with ulterior motives, and even if he was single and in an awkward situation, he would not agree to their requests to be his female companion.

He only wanted to hold Jiang Yimei's hand; he didn't want to pay attention to any other women.

Now that his dream has come true, he feels like he's walking on air, his steps are light and he exudes a majestic aura.

As they walked in, led by a waiter, they arrived at the party venue.

The main door was tightly closed, but two waiters stood on either side of the entrance, ready to open the door for guests at any time.

The two waiters standing on either side of the door were astonished when they saw Jiang Yimei's face. They asked incredulously, "Miss, are you... Sister-in-law Jiang?"

"Xiaoming, Xiaohua?"

Upon seeing the two, Jiang Yimei realized something was wrong and immediately let go of Lin Congzhi's hand. Her eyes darted around, and her face showed panic.

Witnessing this scene, Lin Congzhi frowned, sensing that the two waiters in front of him were not ordinary people. They were likely acquainted with Jiang Yimei and addressed her as "sister-in-law." He guessed that the two were probably Jiang Ze's underlings or brothers known to Jiang Ze.

When Yao Yao saw these two familiar faces, she felt that disaster was about to befall her.

These two are Jiang Ze's good brothers, from the same village, and they started working in society quite early.

After Jiang Ze graduated, these two people hung out with him for a while, but she hasn't seen them since Jiang Ze left the military.

Unexpectedly, the two of them ended up working as waiters at this upscale club.
