Yujia regarded this behavior and Baizhi's words as contempt for her. She was already accustomed to Baizhi's incompetence, and the messy words she just said, which were incomprehensible, directly aroused Yujia's anger.
She pushed Bai Zhi hard, then put her elbow to her throat and said viciously, "Bai Zhi, if you still want to live well, you'd better not mess with me, otherwise you will never have peace in the future!"
Under Bai Zhi's deliberate control, her waist hit the table with a bang.
Then there were two more "bang" and "bang" sounds.
"Beep beep beep—warning, warning—"
"Warning, warning—no fighting—"
"Beep, beep, beep—abnormal temperature—activate fire extinguishing—"
“Zizi——”
As the robot poured water to extinguish the flames in time, smoke continued to drift out.
Bai Zhi's neck was pressed against Yujia's arm, so she couldn't get enough air. The strange sensation in her throat made her cough uncontrollably, "Ahem..."
Hu Yan wasn't around, and Yan Yichen always remembered his duty to protect his wife. So when he saw Bai Zhi being held against the neck like this, he reached out and waved the woman's hand away, protecting Bai Zhi behind him. He stared at them with a vigilant look on his face, "What do you want to do to my wife?"
Seeing Bai Zhi being rescued, Yujia was furious and was about to step forward. Her beastman hadn't expected this female to be someone his wife was familiar with. Seeing his wife's face flushed with anger, he quickly stepped forward to stop her, "Wife, don't be angry, didn't she say that? She just thought I didn't have a wife, so she was just being nice. She didn't do anything, she just gave me more meat than others, so we made a profit."
The noise above was even louder than the battle between the orcs and the red flame beasts below, causing people in the stands below to look towards Room 9 frequently.
When they saw smoke coming out of Room 9, they couldn't help but stand up. Even the battle between Tai and the Red Flame Beast was not paid much attention.
"What happened up there? Why is there still smoke?"
"From the sound, it seems like there's a fight going on up there?"
At this time, the other females who came to express their gratitude also arrived outside the door. They were slightly stunned when they saw the scene inside. The robots were busy putting out the fire, and the atmosphere inside seemed a little tense.
The female even stepped back to take a look, and after confirming that she had not gone in the wrong direction, she asked with a puzzled look on her face, "What happened?"
Bai Zhi straightened her clothes and said with a smile, "There was a misunderstanding. Sorry for the joke. Who are you?"
She paused appropriately. Most of the females here were good-tempered. Even seeing such a messy scene, they didn't show any strangeness. They smiled and said, "I'm Xingfan, and she's Xiaoyu... We came here specifically to thank you for the barbecue."
The female named Xiaoyu followed up, "This is the first time I've heard of someone who can watch and eat barbecue at the same time. We've really learned a lot. To thank you for bringing us food..."
She paused and signaled with her eyes, "Do you need our help here?"
Several orcish voices came from behind the group of females, "We can help too."
Another orc smiled and said, "Yes, if there is anything you need our help with, just let us know. We are happy to serve you, females."
Hearing this, Bai Zhi smiled and said, "My name is Bai Zhi. This is my first time here. Thank you very much for your help. I know her well, but there was a misunderstanding..."
She paused awkwardly and looked at Yujia, who was frowning and looking unhappy. However, her beastly husband pulled her behind him and said with a smile, "Yes, it's all a misunderstanding. We came here specifically to thank this female."
Bai Zhi said frankly, "This orc was sitting there alone just now. I thought he didn't have any females, so I asked the robot to express my admiration when delivering the meat. I didn't expect this orc was a female, and someone I knew. This led to such a misunderstanding. But it was my fault first. Next time, I will try to understand him better before expressing my affection."
Then Bai Zhi said to Yu Jia, "I'm so sorry."
Yujia snorted. It was obvious that she didn't think there was any misunderstanding here. It was clearly Baizhi who did it on purpose. But since her beastly husband had said such words, she didn't want to expose his intentions.
In addition, these people obviously wanted to help because of Baizhi's barbecue idea. If she really wanted to do something at this time, she would probably end up in trouble.
Although she is not very smart, she can still judge the situation.
An orc secretly sighed, "Why didn't she fall for me?" But he said, "It's not your fault. Everyone loves beauty. Besides, you've already apologized."
"Yes, why don't you look at us? We are all single orcs, and we look no worse than him." The orc who spoke even bulged his chest muscles to show his masculine charm.
In response, Bai Zhi just smiled.
Because the abnormal situation here at Baizhi was reported to the management by the robot, several orcs guarding nearby and Ek rushed over at the first time and saved Baizhi from embarrassment.
Ekko observed everything calmly. "What are you all doing here? I received an alert from robot 006 that there's a fire in room 9. What happened? Why did it start on fire?"
Bai Zhi quickly explained, "I just accidentally bumped into the table and knocked over the barbecue pot. I'm really sorry for causing you trouble. I will compensate you for the damaged items."
While Bai Zhi attracted everyone's attention, Hu Yan put Lang Qiu and Yue Junxiao, who had turned back to their original form, in his arms. He originally wanted to go back to Room 9, but found that Room 9 was full of people, so he hid in an empty room and then told Bai Zhi the room number.
Xing Fan glanced at Yu Jia and said, "It's not your fault. She should be the one to pay. If she hadn't pushed you, how could you have bumped into the table and dropped something for no reason?"
Xiaoyu agreed, "Yes, she should be the one to pay the compensation."
Yujia's face sank, and she started cursing, "Shameless thing! Why should I pay for it? She provoked me first, so I taught her a lesson. Who knew she was so vulnerable? I even suspected she was trying to scam me!"
As soon as she said this, others couldn't help but frown in displeasure.
Baizhi invited so many people to have barbecue, so she had the upper hand in people's hearts. Coupled with the attitudes of the two just now, people at the scene were even more inclined to Baizhi.
After all, people who are willing to spend so much money to treat so many people to barbecue are at least not bad people by nature. Of course, it is not ruled out that they just have too much money and can't afford to spend it.
But Baizhi was gentle and polite from beginning to end. Even when she was pushed to the point of knocking over things on the table, she did not blame the other party, but apologized to the other party. Even after the guarding orcs came over, she immediately expressed her apology for the damaged items and took the initiative to offer compensation. This further proved that it was the female who was being unreasonable.
