He struggled to suppress his unbearable dryness in his mouth, reached out and gently pushed her away by pressing against her back.
"I've already told you I have a girlfriend. Don't try to get close to me anymore. I won't even look at you."
"What?" Xu Nuo was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted. "You're really presumptuous. This is your place, and I'm your guest. Someone is trying to humiliate your guest in your place, and you have the nerve to stand by and do nothing?"
"You're right, but he's also my guest, so it's best if I don't interfere, isn't it?"
"You're just...!" Xu Nuo was so angry she was about to explode. "I can't even imagine what kind of swear words you could use, you son of a bitch."
She had never met such a self-righteous and heartless person in her entire life, and that beating was really too lenient.
If she had known this would happen, she would have beaten him half to death so he wouldn't be able to harm others anymore.
And his sharp tongue should be removed too; it's not very useful to keep it around anyway.
Hearing her curses, Fu Xiao's pupils dilated slightly, and a large hand grabbed the back of her neck. "Woman, falling into my hands won't be any easier than falling into his. Don't deliberately provoke me."
Suddenly restrained, she instinctively raised her hand but then silently put it back down.
For her, offending anyone would have the same result; she could run away as long as she wanted to. The difference was that Fu Xiao had the information she wanted, but Chen Hao didn't.
So even if she had to pester him, she had to keep pestering Fu Xiao.
"I'd rather fall into your hands than be humiliated in vain. You won't do anything to me, will you?"
During her conversation with Fu Xiao, she also gestured to Lin Nuan, who was sitting in the booth, to go back first, saying that she could manage here by herself.
After receiving her instructions, Lin Nuan quietly paid the tip and slipped away through the back door unnoticed by anyone.
Faced with her shamelessness, Fu Xiao was truly at a loss and could only hand the matter over to Fu Xu beside him before sitting back down on the sofa.
Fu Xu stood awkwardly between Xu Nuo and Chen Hao, his face contorted in a grimace.
The boss didn't say it directly, so which side is he going to stand on?
Although the Chen family is also a large family, it is still somewhat inferior to the Mingxiao Hall. Whether or not to give them face depends mainly on the eldest brother's opinion.
As for that woman, she got on the wrong bus at the airport, and then there was this unusual meeting today. The boss seems to treat her a little differently, but it's not very obvious.
He felt like his head was about to explode; it would be much easier for him to fight and kill than to solve this kind of problem.
He's a very straightforward person. Since he doesn't know how to solve the problem, he'll just stand here and see who holds out the longest, and he'll help whoever does.
Ten minutes later, Chen Hao couldn't take it anymore and was convinced that Fu Xiao was helping that woman, so he left the nightclub with the others.
After Chen Hao left, Xu Nuo showed no sign of leaving. Instead, she sat down next to Fu Xiao in a very natural and open manner.
"Hey, thanks for today." She sat down next to Fu Xiao, but the words weren't directed at him.
Fu Xu nodded expressionlessly. Actually, this matter should be attributed to the boss. He didn't have that much intimidation power to make Chen Hao back down.
But since the eldest brother didn't speak, he could only offer a casual reply.
"Um... how about I treat you to dinner tomorrow to express my gratitude?" She smiled at Fu Xu, and her smile was especially sweet.
Today's events show that Fu Xiao is not an easy person to deal with. She might as well settle for second best and find Fu Xu to be easier to fool.
"I'm sorry, I don't have time."
"How could there be no time? Your boss is so heartless, not even giving us a little personal time."
"That's not how it works."
The two of them stood between Fu Xiao, chatting away, completely unaware that his face was growing increasingly dark.
Seeing that Fu Xu was equally unyielding, Xu Nuo could only turn to the person who could set him free, "Hey, could you...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Fu Xiao stood up and walked towards the door, and Fu Xu quickly followed, leaving Xu Nuo alone, unsure whether to sit or leave.
"This guy probably has some minor issues. Today's mission has been unsuccessful, but I won't give up."
She put on her coat and prepared to go home, only to find that Lin Nuan had already driven the car away when she got to the door.
This nightclub wasn't located in a bustling area; in fact, it was eerily quiet. Fortunately, just a few steps ahead was a main road with bright streetlights.
She quickly called Lin Nuan to ask her to come pick her up, because it was impossible to get a taxi here.
She was walking slowly down the street, carrying a small handbag, when suddenly two SUVs stopped behind her.
Five men got out of the car together, and the one in the lead was Chen Hao, whom they had just met at the nightclub.
"Oh, how come Fu Xiao's woman was left stranded halfway?" Chen Hao sneered, reaching out as if to grab Xu Nuo.
She lightly dodged to the side. Apart from Chen Hao, who was all show and no substance, there were five people in total. She wasn't sure she had a chance of winning.
I was careless. I should have brought the equipment from the car with me. Now I can only stall for time until Lin Nuan arrives.
"What are you saying, Brother Chen? It's normal for couples to have a few arguments. He'll be here to pick me up in a little while."
Her gaze fell on the empty road, but her hopes were pinned on Lin Nuan. "You'd better step on the gas, or I'll be in big trouble."
"You're trying to stall for time. Even if you really had a relationship with Fu Xiao before, I'm going to take you today. Get her in the car."
As soon as Chen Hao finished speaking, several men approached Xu Nuo together.
Xu Nuo slowly backed away, and her high heels unknowingly ended up in her hands. It seemed that a fight was inevitable.
Just then, a black Jeep slowly drove by, and Xu Nuo immediately recognized it as Fu Xiao's car.
She flung her high heels away forcefully, one of them hitting the windshield of the jeep.
"Boss, it's a shoe. It sounds like someone's calling for help over there," Fu Xu said to the people in the back row after taking a look through the window.
A casual voice came from the back seat, "When did you become such a busybody?"
"It's that woman from earlier; Chen Hao caught her."
The person who had been taking a nap with their eyes closed suddenly opened them, and the rear window slowly rolled down.
Xu Nuo's desperate cries for help became crystal clear, and his hands, hanging at his sides, gradually clenched into fists.
He knew very well that the woman had an ulterior motive for approaching him.
It's possible that she orchestrated this accident herself.
But what if it isn't?
If she falls into Chen Hao's hands, she will definitely suffer a fate worse than death.
