Security guards were stationed at the staircase, worried that unfamiliar customers might go up. Since Su Changfeng and Zhu Lie were up there, the guards definitely wouldn’t let unrelated people go up, not even women.
"Sorry, miss, the second floor is reserved." The security guard stopped Wu Xueqing.
Upon hearing the guard’s words, Wu Xueqing’s face was filled with a cold sneer. This bastard used someone else’s money to live well and even had such a position at Charming. Judging by this, he must come here often to spend money.
"I know that person," Wu Xueqing said.
The guard still insisted, "Unrelated people are not allowed upstairs. If someone upstairs knows you, they will definitely inform me, but I haven’t received any notification yet."
Wu Xueqing frowned and spoke coldly, "You better tell him, or I’m afraid you’ll make a mistake because of this."
At this point, Cheng Sixue joined in the excitement and approached Wu Xueqing, saying to the security guard, "You’re just a doorman, go and tell him immediately. You wouldn’t want to face the boss’s punishment, would you?"
But their boss was upstairs, yet he hadn’t said a word, so there was no need for notification.
"Our store’s boss is also upstairs, but he didn’t inform me, so please go back." The guard said politely.
After hearing the guard’s words, both Wu Xueqing and Cheng Sixue focused their gaze on Zhu Lie because he seemed more like the boss.
Of course, to outsiders, Zhu Lie indeed appeared to be the boss of Charming, but who would have thought Charming actually belonged to Su Changfeng?
"Changfeng, these two beauties are trying to come up. Should we let them?" Zhu Lie laughed and asked Su Changfeng from the second floor.
As for Wu Xueqing, Su Changfeng preferred not to interact with her since she was Wu Feng’s niece. Su Changfeng couldn’t use any tricks on her, but meeting would definitely lead to sarcasm, so avoiding her was the wisest choice.
"No need." Su Changfeng replied indifferently.
"Sigh, you really don’t appreciate beauty. If I had your luck with women, then I..."
"Your wife is watching you from above, so aren’t you afraid she’ll strike you down with lightning for saying this?" Su Changfeng interrupted before Zhu Lie could finish.
Zhu Lie instinctively shrank his neck, believing such things might happen if he ever got struck by lightning.
Wu Xueqing was blocked downstairs, and as she saw Su Changfeng look at her but not let the security guard allow them up, she was so angry her hands shook. What was this asshole thinking, just coming here to act all aloof?
Wu Xueqing returned to her seat angrily and said, "That pretty boy is just doing this to gain attention."
"What do you mean by that?" Cheng Sixue asked, puzzled.
"Hmph." Wu Xueqing snorted coldly, saying, "That guy intentionally followed me to Jiang City to meet me, but now he’s purposely avoiding it. Isn’t he just seeking attention?"
Cheng Sixue didn’t understand what happened between Wu Xueqing and Su Changfeng, making her think Wu Xueqing was too conceited.
Meeting at a nightclub doesn’t mean he followed her, right? It could just be a coincidence.
"Maybe it’s just a coincidence. It seems like he’s not interested in you," Cheng Sixue said.
Wu Xueqing didn’t believe it was a coincidence; the distance between Beijing and Jiang City was too far for such coincidences to happen.
"Just watch. He’ll come to find me soon." Wu Xueqing said.
"Really? How about we make a bet? The loser buys the other a handbag." Cheng Sixue intentionally challenged Wu Xueqing, having her eye on a new bag with no one to pay for it.
The bag wasn’t cheap, but this matter involved dignity, so Wu Xueqing wouldn’t back down and agreed right away.
The view from the second floor of the nightclub was expansive, nearly allowing a full view of the interior, but Su Changfeng, for prior reasons, didn’t linger a second more on Wu Xueqing, as he had no interest in her.
"Can’t you see something isn’t right tonight?" Su Changfeng suddenly said to Zhu Lie. The rightful source is novel⁂fire.net
While Zhu Lie prayed in his heart and apologized to his wife in heaven, saying those things were just for amusement, he really feared she’d be upset, so he didn’t pay much attention to Su Changfeng.
"What’s wrong? What happened?" Zhu Lie asked confusedly.
"There are a few guys sitting there who don’t look like they’re here to party but are observing the surroundings," Su Changfeng explained.
"Maybe they’re choosing targets now, like hunters waiting for prey to arrive and just waiting patiently." Zhu Lie laughed.
Su Changfeng shook his head. A sense of foreboding gradually arose in him. He suspected these people had other intentions, like they planned to do something at a certain time.
"Get Feng Bin to arrange some people to keep an eye on them. Just in case they cause trouble." Su Changfeng said.
Zhu Lie showed a dismissive attitude; since inheriting Charming, no one dared come to cause trouble.
"Don’t be so suspicious. We’re at Charming, unless..."
Before Zhu Lie could finish, he was shocked to see Su Changfeng jump off the second floor.
"Are you freaking out of your mind?" Zhu Lie shouted.
Simultaneously, Wu Xueqing and Cheng Sixue witnessed Su Changfeng’s leap, their expressions as incredulous as Zhu Lie’s.
"Did he... Did he jump down from upstairs?" Cheng Sixue stumbled over her words, wiped her eyes unsure if she hallucinated.
Though the second floor wasn’t that high, it was still a few meters up; an average person would get hurt falling, yet he jumped willingly.
Before people could figure out what was happening, Su Changfeng already came face-to-face with the person he was watching, because he saw that person suddenly pull out a knife. That person’s intention was clear: they hadn’t come to find girls but to cause trouble.
The person, looking shady, had just picked a target planning to stab them to let blood, but suddenly felt someone tightly gripping his wrist.
