"You have a problem with that?" Qiao Xinruo didn't explain at all.
A queen is a queen.
This is a notification, not a discussion!
"Of course I have no objection!" Zhou Jinglan immediately clarified, afraid that if he was even a second late, Qiao Xinruo would misunderstand him. "I just find it strange. Don't be angry, just pretend I didn't ask."
Zhou Jinglan's cautious attitude made Qiao Xinruo feel a little sorry for him.
Even if he's a complete idiot, you can't keep bullying him.
"Just kidding. Actually, my sister stays home taking care of the kids all the time. I thought it was a rare opportunity for her to rest, so I brought her out to relax. Ever since my brother-in-law passed away, my sister hasn't had much entertainment besides taking care of the kids. It's just like going on a date with us," Qiao Xinruo explained.
Zhou Jinglan hadn't expected Qiao Xinruo to explain herself, especially in such a kind and gentle way, and at that moment she had absolutely no thoughts left.
Moreover, he knew who Su Yueya's husband was—the famous King of Soldiers, Lu Zhengjun. Even though they weren't in the same unit, Lu Zhengjun's title as King of Soldiers was extremely well-known in both units in the capital.
“Our unit also knows about Lu Bingwang’s sacrifice, and it is indeed a great pity…” Zhou Jinglan said.
"Alright, alright, stop talking about it in front of my sister," Qiao Xinruo winked, hinting.
Zhou Jinglan immediately shut up.
Being young people, they quickly relaxed and started having fun amidst the music and lights.
Despite their somewhat clumsy dance moves, the atmosphere was still incredibly lively.
Su Yueya was the only one who wasn't very focused. After all, she hadn't come here to have fun, but rather to try her luck and see if she could bump into a man who resembled Lu Zhengjun. So she kept looking around, trying to match every man she saw with Lu Zhengjun.
But the result was not as expected.
"Xinruo, you and Jinglan continue playing. I'm going back to my seat to rest for a bit," Su Yueya said.
"Okay." Qiao Xinru could also tell that her sister was distracted.
However, just as Su Yueya was about to leave the dance floor, little did she know that she and her sister had already been targeted.
Beautiful and radiant, and being twin sisters, although their styles of dress are different, their strikingly similar faces alone are enough to make them the focus of the entire dance hall.
Those who were timid could only watch from afar, while some of the bolder ones, even seeing Zhou Jinglan, their protector, by their side, were still restless and unable to restrain themselves.
"Little fairy." The greasy man held a wine glass and moved it in front of Su Yueya, blocking her way back to her seat.
Su Yueya glanced at the other person, making no attempt to hide the disdain in her eyes, and remained silent, intending to walk around them.
But the other party was like a persistent leech, chasing after them once again.
Su Yueya: "..."
"I'm married and have two kids. Are you sure you want to hit on me?" Su Yueya asked coldly, also annoyed by the other party's attitude.
She was already disappointed because she couldn't find anyone, and she didn't have the energy to mince words with anyone else, so she thought of having someone back off on their own initiative.
But with a face like that, no one would believe her if she said such things.
"So what if you're married and have kids? Young married women are the most caring. I like young married women like you. Have a drink with me, or maybe we can go dance in the dance hall?" the other person persisted.
Su Yueya suppressed her anger, thinking that Qiao Xinruo and Zhou Jinglan were still on a date, and tried her best not to make things worse.
"Comrade, I have no interest. Please have some self-respect," she said indifferently.
"Hey, did I give you face?" After being rejected several times, the other party felt embarrassed and, seeing that Su Yueya looked like a little girl, naturally decided to resort to his ruthless tactics.
"I find the face you offer dirty." Su Yueya glared at the other person.
She really didn't want to ruin her sister's date, but the other person was so shameless and took advantage of her. If she didn't teach him a lesson, wouldn't she be a fool?
"Oh, you've got a sharp tongue, huh? I love spicy food, it's really good—" As he spoke, the man reached out his groping hand, ready to grab Su Yueya's arm.
Su Yueya didn't give him a chance at all. The instant he reached out, she grabbed his arm and, with a clever move, dislocated his shoulder. All of this happened in milliseconds.
Before the other person could react, their arm was already hanging down.
"Ouch, my arm is dislocated!" the other person shouted.
People who come to dance halls are unlikely to be alone; they usually come in groups of three or five, and this man who came to chat him up was no exception.
"You shameless woman!"
"Kill her, get revenge for us guys!"
"Damn it, it's your good fortune to have been attracted to you, stop pretending, you filthy bitch!"
"Brothers, charge!"
Su Yueya: "..."
Are you crazy? Why are you talking so much nonsense during a fight? If you're going to waste your time, why don't you just take her down?
It's all just for show!
Su Yueya stretched her neck and wrists, ready to make a big move. She didn't take these people seriously at all. After all, she wasn't intimidated by human traffickers wielding knives, let alone these petty thugs.
However, before she could even make a move, Zhou Jinglan had already taken down two of them.
"ah--"
The thug screamed and fell at Su Yueya's feet.
"Sis, are you alright?" Qiao Xinruo quickly came over to protect her sister, already harboring murderous intent towards these clueless hooligans.
"I'm fine," Su Yueya said, holding her sister tightly, not wanting to make a big deal out of it. "Forget it, there's no need to bother with them."
For Zhou Jinglan, a dignified regimental commander, dealing with these petty thugs was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut; he subdued them in no time, making them kneel and beg for mercy.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..." A man's arm was twisted behind his back. Zhou Jinglan applied a little force, and the man cried out in pain, "Big brother, you're my own brother, please don't break it again!"
“Apologize,” Zhou Jinglan said coldly, looking at Su Yueya.
These thugs have no backbone. They couldn't even beat one of them. What else can they do but admit defeat?
"Fairy, I was wrong, I was so wrong, please spare my arm!" the other party begged for mercy.
A perfectly good date was ruined.
Su Yueya wasn't particularly angry, but she felt a little sorry for her sister and Zhou Jinglan. She hadn't seen the man who resembled Lu Zhengjun on this trip, and instead had caused them trouble. She shouldn't have come out with such wishful thinking.
"Never mind, Jinglan, he didn't really gain anything anyway," Su Yueya said.
Even if Zhou Jinglan doesn't make a move, Su Yueya alone won't be able to gain any advantage over this group of lewd men.
"Get out—" Zhou Jinglan said in a deep voice.
Because of this little incident, Su Yueya's attention was entirely focused on her sister, Zhou Jinglan, and the group of lewd men, and she didn't notice at all that a few pretty girls had walked in at the entrance of the dance hall.
