Chapter 272 Have you become more capable?
"Miss Mu, are you coming over?"
The other party's tone brightened instantly, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Mu Nanyan replied calmly: "Yes, address."
"Chense Bar, Box 6."
The other party quickly reported her location, as if afraid that she would change her mind.
"Got it. I'll be right there."
She responded briefly and hung up the phone.
When Mu Nanyan looked up, she saw herself in the mirror.
The woman in the mirror had a plain face, and there was a hint of annoyance between her brows.
She reached out and rubbed her temples, thinking to herself that she was really crazy. It was the middle of the night, she had just taken off her makeup, and she was going out for a drunk.
Forget it, no one will notice whether she is wearing no makeup at night anyway.
Mu Nanyan grabbed a coat and hurriedly changed into a pair of flat shoes. When she closed the door, she subconsciously moved lightly, fearing that she would wake up Chenchen in the next bedroom.
The night breeze was cool, and the parking lot was so quiet that only her footsteps could be heard.
As she started the car, she glanced at the time. It was already 10:37 PM.
"Lu Yiran, you'd better be really drunk and unconscious."
She muttered to herself, stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the Chense Tavern.
————
The night is deep and the neon lights are flashing.
Mu Nanyan parked the car steadily in front of the Chense Bar, got out of the car neatly, and walked straight into the bar.
At this moment, the guests who were greeting each other at the door of the bar all turned their eyes to Mu Nanyan.
The reason was simple: her dress didn't fit in with the atmosphere of this bar full of lights and wine.
Most of the women at the door of the bar were wearing suspender skirts and had delicate and gorgeous makeup, but Mu Nanyan had no makeup on, and an apricot windbreaker made her look pure and gentle. She didn't look like someone who would appear in such a lively and noisy occasion.
However, Mu Nanyan had no time to care about the gazes of the crowd. She walked hurriedly and eagerly towards the bar.
As soon as you step in, colorful lights instantly come into view. The cold blue light and the warm red light interweave with each other, creating a mysterious and charming atmosphere, as if dragging you into a fantasy alien space.
On the stage, the band was playing with great passion.
The strong drum beats hit the heart like a heavy hammer, the low bass and the passionate guitar blend perfectly, and the lead singer's magnetic voice echoes in the entire bar, instantly igniting the enthusiasm of everyone present.
But Mu Nanyan frowned slightly.
She hadn't been to such a place for a long time. Now that she was there again, she felt her eardrums hurt and the noise was so noisy that it made her feel upset.
In this bar with flashing lights and deafening music, gorgeous laser lights constantly change colors on the dance floor.
A group of young men and women were dancing on the stage, and several women in suspender skirts were particularly eye-catching.
They swayed their bodies wildly to the strong rhythm, their hair flying, their faces filled with excitement and joy of releasing themselves.
The short skirt sways gently as she dances, revealing the vitality and charm of youth.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Mu Nanyan couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in her heart.
How long had it been since she last came to a bar? The last time she was here seemed to be five years ago. Ever since she had Chenchen in her arms, the focus of her life had been entirely on the child, and places like this had long been isolated from her.
At this moment, she suddenly felt as if she was really old and no longer had the energy to come to such a place for entertainment. Now, she just wanted to return to the warm bed and have a good sleep.
Thinking of this, Mu Nanyan's thoughts involuntarily drifted to Lu Yiran.
I was worried that something might have happened to him, but he was having fun in this bar full of lights and wine.
Had he ever sat in the audience before, admiring the women dancing on the stage like those men?
The more she thought about it, the more regretful Mu Nanyan felt.
Why did he bother to come and pick him up? Maybe he was having so much fun here that he didn't want to go back.
A surge of anger surged in her heart, and Mu Nanyan even wanted to turn around and leave, no longer caring about Lu Yiran's life or death.
The more Mu Nanyan thought about it, the angrier she became. She even wanted to turn around and leave, not bothering to care about Lu Yiran.
Just as she was struggling with her conscience, a waiter walked up to Mu Nanyan with a smile on his face and asked softly:
"Ma'am, how many of you are there?"
Being called out of the blue, Mu Nanyan felt a little embarrassed for a moment. She didn't know whether to leave or stay.
She hesitated for a long time before looking at the waiter and saying:
"I'm here to look for someone. Where is box number six?"
"plz follow me."
The waiter said this and led the way.
As soon as the two stepped onto the second floor, they ran into a staggering figure.
The man walked towards them slowly, his steps unsteadily, as if he was walking on cotton.
Mu Nanyan subconsciously moved aside, but the man still rubbed her shoulder heavily when he passed by.
She frowned and didn't want to make a fuss. Just as she was about to move forward, she was suddenly grabbed by the wrist with brute force.
"What's wrong with you? You want to leave after you bumped into someone? Hiccup~"
The man reeked of alcohol and was quite drunk. His tongue seemed to be tied when he spoke, and there was a hint of ferocity in his cloudy eyes.
Mu Nanyan looked down at the hand with bulging veins. There were black stains hidden between the nails. She suppressed the discomfort in her heart and said coldly:
"You hit me, let go of your hand."
The waitress heard the sound behind her and turned around to check the situation. She saw a drunk looking for trouble. She knew that drunk men were the most difficult to deal with. She looked at Mu Nanyan and kindly reminded her:
"Why don't you just apologize to him and let this go..."
Mu Nanyan looked at the waiter in disbelief. She was clearly the one being harassed, so why should she bow her head?
Just then, the drunk man suddenly came closer.
He narrowed his cloudy eyes and looked at her in the dim light of the corridor.
When he saw Mu Nanyan's plain yet delicate face, a disgusting smile appeared on his lips:
"You don't necessarily have to apologize... Just have a drink with my brother and forget about it..."
Only then did Mu Nanyan see his face clearly. She saw a hideous scar on his right eye that crawled across his brow bone like a centipede, shining terrifyingly under the light.
What frightened her even more was the aura emanating from the man. The violent smell mixed with the smell of cigarettes and alcohol instantly reminded her of the desperadoes she had seen abroad.
A thin layer of sweat formed on her back, but she remained composed. Years of work experience had taught her to hide her fear, but her clenched palms were already sweating.
This scarred man is definitely not just an ordinary drunkard.
Mu Nanyan was afraid of angering the scarred man and causing herself unnecessary trouble. She suppressed her disgust and forced an apologetic smile.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention just now. Can you let me go now?"
The scarred man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellowed teeth:
"This... why are you in such a hurry? I've seen a lot of women like you. It doesn't matter who they accompany. How much do they pay you? I'll give you double. As long as you accompany me well... price is not a problem."
He narrowed his eyes and looked at her meaningfully. Mu Nanyan didn't react for a moment and frowned in confusion.
What does he mean?
The waitress beside her looked embarrassed and looked at Mu Nanyan quietly. She didn't expect that this man regarded Mu Nanyan as that kind of woman...
Although the bar does have some special services and some girls who look innocent, there really isn't anyone as beautiful and elegant as Mu Nanyan...
The air suddenly fell silent, and finally the waiter stood up and explained:
"Sir, if you need it, we can help you find someone. This lady is an ordinary customer. You must have recognized the wrong person..."
After hearing this, Mu Nanyan finally realized what the man meant. She was actually thought to be a prostitute?
There are all kinds of birds in the world. How could she be the type to do that kind of thing?
Mu Nanyan even glanced at her own outfit. An apricot windbreaker with a white shirt—she was clearly dressed very formally, wasn't she? How could she be that unconventional?
What shocked her even more was that this seemingly high-end bar was actually hiding such activities.
These young masters are really good at having fun. They can even find a place like this. Could it be that Lu Yiran came here too...
"let go!"
Mu Nanyan's voice suddenly turned cold. She didn't care whether this man was easy to deal with or not. She exerted force and shook off the man's grip on her wrist.
She even took out wet wipes from her bag with disgust and wiped her wrists.
"What do you mean?"
The scarred man's face suddenly changed. How dare this woman despise him? He was lucky enough not to despise her. I wonder how many men had fucked her...
He has been hanging out in black places for many years. For people like them, women are just tools to vent their anger. They are the only ones who despise women. When have they ever been despised by women?
The man's eyes were red and his face was full of anger. Because of anger, his whole face was distorted, making the scar on his face look even more hideous and terrifying.
He staggered towards Mu Nanyan in front of him, waving his strong arms with a fierce force, wanting to punch Mu Nanyan in the face.
Mu Nanyan's eyes suddenly became sharp. Just when the man's fist was about to touch her face, she dodged sideways nimbly.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Nanyan grabbed the man's wrist and twisted it hard.
The man felt pain and a look of astonishment appeared on his face. He tried to break free, but because he was drunk, he didn't have much strength.
The waiters standing by were stunned. They didn't expect that this girl who looked so weak could be so powerful.
"It hurts! Big sister, I was wrong! I was just drunk and talking nonsense..."
The scarred man was mostly sober and was surprised to find that this seemingly weak woman was actually a martial artist. It seemed that he had met a tough opponent today.
"Who are you calling Big Sister?"
As Mu Nanyan spoke, she increased the strength in her hands.
"Ah! I... I'm the eldest sister. I really just drank too much and talked nonsense. Please let me go..."
Mu Nanyan appeared calm on the surface, but cold sweat had already broken out on her back.
She had learned some self-defense skills when she was in Country F, but they had not been used for so long and due to long-term lack of exercise, they had long since become rusty.
She used this move out of desperation, but she didn't actually have much strength, it was basically just a show.
If the man was sober at this moment, he might have seen through her disguise long ago. Unfortunately, the man was drunk and had little strength, so she was able to subdue him so easily.
"roll!"
Mu Nanyan gradually loosened her grip and let the man go.
The man smiled awkwardly at her. Mu Nanyan just wanted to leave here quickly, so she ignored him and said to the waiter:
"Lead the way."
The waiter finally recovered from his shock and continued walking forward.
Mu Nanyan and the waiter continued to walk forward. The man looked at Mu Nanyan's back as she left, and the expression on his face changed instantly. He rushed towards Mu Nanyan, wanting to sneak attack her.
He was a grown man, but he was actually subdued by a woman. If this got out, would he still have any face? How could he let it go so easily? Only Mu Nanyan was so naive that she would believe him.
Just as the man's fist was about to land on Mu Nanyan, a loud shout froze the scarred man's movements instantly.
"Rat!"
When the man heard the sound that was engraved in his bones, his body went limp, his foot stepped on empty air, and he fell straight down.
"Bang!"
Mu Nanyan and the waiter heard the sound and looked behind them. They saw the man lying on the ground with his legs spread out. He took a lot of effort to stand up and then looked behind him.
A slender figure walked out from the darkness, and his shiny leather shoes made a steady sound as they stepped on the floor.
The man was wearing a well-tailored black suit, which stood out particularly under the dim light.
The scarred man who was so arrogant just now was like a mouse seeing a cat, nodding and bowing as he shouted, "Brother Feng."
The man in the suit glanced at him coldly, his voice soft but with unquestionable authority:
"Haozi, have you become more capable?"
"What are you doing?"
"This woman provoked me first, I just wanted to teach her a lesson..."
Haozi wanted to argue, but was silenced by the other party's look.
The man in the suit slowly adjusted his cufflinks and continued:
"I told you not to cause any trouble for me in Haicheng."
Cold sweat broke out on Haozi's forehead, and he was completely sober now:
"Brother Feng, I was wrong..."
"Go back and accept the punishment yourself."
The man in the suit said this casually, and Haozi's face turned pale.
"Yes, Brother Feng."
Haozi didn't dare to say anything more and disappeared at the end of the corridor in shame.
Mu Nanyan stood aside, the deafening music making it difficult for her to hear the conversation.
She only saw the arrogant drunk man being as obedient as a dog in front of the man in the suit, and then disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
When the man in the suit turned and walked towards her, Mu Nanyan unconsciously tensed her body.
Under the light, she finally saw the other person's face clearly. His well-defined face showed an aura of majesty without anger, but his slightly raised eyes held a hint of inquiry.
"Miss, I didn't scare you, did I?"
The man spoke, his voice low and pleasant, completely different from the cold and harsh tone he had when he was scolding his subordinates just now.
Mu Nanyan quietly clenched her fists and looked at this mysterious man warily. Who was he? Why was the scarred man so afraid of him?
