A tear rolled down Jinse's cheek, but she still insisted on herself and said loudly:
"I've always considered you a good friend. How could you think of me like this? You said such vulgar things. I came here today with good intentions to advise you."
"If everyone knew you were divorced, would they still treat you like they do today? You might as well reconcile with Brother Yunshen."
Sure enough, the men surrounding them began to whisper.
"Looking at Hong Mudan's figure, I thought she was a girl, but I didn't expect she was married."
"What do you know? Young women are better."
"With that figure, what does it matter if they get divorced?"
"Her ex-husband was willing to let her go. Looking at her small body, she definitely couldn't be satisfied."
.......
Xu Zhiyi listened to the buzzing sounds around him like flies, and his patience was gone. There were more and more people around him, and he was about to kick them, but Lu Tuo behind him grabbed his waist.
Xu Zhiyi looked at him in disbelief:
"You want to stop me?"
Lu Tuo didn't let go of her hand, his eyes still fixed on Jinse.
The height difference between the two made Jinse feel oppressed by his aura.
This kind of man is a real man. Only when you are protected by such a man in troubled times can you feel safe.
She regretted not dressing up properly when she came here today.
A man's low voice came:
"Miss, do you have any objections to our Bailemen's selection? Are you qualified to criticize my people?"
He hooked his finger at the side, and several men in bodyguard uniforms surrounded him. The man said coldly:
"Throw it out."
The three words "man" hit Jinse's heart hard.
Her face turned pale. How could he do this to her?
She was still muttering:
"No, I just want her life to be better. Why do you misunderstand me?"
Ye Yunshen looked at Jinse with eyes full of heartache and was about to step forward immediately.
Xu Zhiyi relaxed a little. Fortunately, Lu Tuo did not side with others. Even if some things were her fault, she still hoped that the other party would be on her side, especially since it was not her fault.
Several big men behind her picked her up like a chick, carried her out of Bailemen and threw her out.
It was no use for Ye Yunshen to jump around anymore, as he was already pinned down by a big man.
During the struggle, his pants were almost taken off.
No one around dared to come forward to help. Who would dare?
Xu Zhiyi felt relieved when he saw Jinse's frightened face.
Finally, a scream was heard outside, which was instantly drowned out by the noisy drinking sounds in the house.
Xu Zhiyi looked down at her waist, then at her full body pressed tightly against Lu Tuo's upper body, revealing even more of her whiteness.
She raised her eyes and blinked at Lu Tuo.
Lu Tuo lowered his head to look at the white spot, immediately released her waist, and said to her:
"I'm sorry, I just thought that if you kicked her she would be exposed."
After a pause, he added:
"Actually, when singing in Bailemen, you only need to sing. You can choose some high-necked clothes in the future."
Luo Wenhao squeezed over and glanced at Lu Tuo with a strange look. He thought that he should be the one to save the beauty. He was not sensible at all.
He said to Xu Zhiyi who seemed to be still recovering from the shock:
"Yes, yes, Lu Tuo is the boss here, and I'm his friend. You can wear whatever you want. You don't have to listen to anyone else."
As he said this, he glanced at Aunt Bai.
Aunt Bai also knew what was happening here. Seeing the boss was there, she had already stood aside as a background board.
She felt a little aggrieved and trembling when she heard this. Xu Zhiyi, at such a level, could choose her own clothes. It was really not forced by her.
She could see that her boss and his friend were interested in Xu Zhiyi, so how could she dare to answer this question?
Xu Zhiyi also doesn't want others to take the blame for her:
"These are my own choices, and have nothing to do with anyone else."
Luo Wenhao was extremely satisfied seeing Hong Mudan being so considerate of others. He took another step closer and said:
"If you don't mind, could you please come to the box and chat for a while?"
Xu Zhiyi glanced at Lu Tuo standing beside her. This was her first time seeing a target, so she nodded naturally.
"But I only have an hour, and I have to sing on stage later."
Aunt Bai wiped the sweat off her head and said without the boss's prompting:
"Mudan, just have a good chat. Reporting progress is also a form of work. I'll find someone to take your place later."
Xu Zhiyi naturally agreed and followed the two people upstairs.
When they were almost at the door, Luo Wenhao blinked frantically at Lu Tuo, suggesting that he should leave quickly and leave them alone.
But his brother seemed to be blind and even said with concern:
"Are your eyes uncomfortable? If so, go back early."
Luo Wenhao: “???”
Finally, he gritted his teeth and replied, "It's okay."
.........
The brocade zither was thrown to the ground by the big men, who then left.
Ye Yunshen, who was thrown out at the same time, hurried forward and squatted down:
"Jinse, are you hurt? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
Jinse squatted on the ground and cried inconsolably. She had never been so embarrassed in her life. She fell into Ye Yunshen's arms while crying:
"Brother Yunshen, how could Zhiyi say that to me? What bad intentions did I have? I just wanted to help her out of this quagmire."
Seeing her crying so hard, Ye Yunshen thought to himself, "Why do you say I like Xu Zhiyi the most?" He had never said that before, and the words got stuck in his throat. Jinse still felt that Xu Zhiyi was too pitiful.
Crying in front of someone else's door was not a good thing after all, so Ye Yunshen stood up and hugged her.
This time, Jinse did not refuse.
.........
There was no main light in the box, so the light was dim. Outside, a new singer came on stage and sang a song. A line came from it. It was the first time Lu Tuo had heard Xu Zhiyi sing a song:
"I want you. I want you by my side."
Lu Tuo was aroused by the soft music.
Luo Yunhao poured Xu Zhiyi a glass of red wine:
"Drink something?"
Xu Zhiyi's fingers, as slender as water chestnuts, pinched the wine glass, clinked glasses and drank it. Luo Yunhao raised an eyebrow at Lu Tuo. This time he was the one who drank it.
Lu Tuo looked at Xu Zhiyi dimly:
"How is it? Are you used to being in Baile City?"
Xu Zhiyi swallowed the red wine in her mouth and smiled brightly:
"In the young master's territory, there is naturally a sense of security."
Lu Tuo's eyes flashed and he wanted to say something.
Interrupted by Luo Yunhao:
