Jin Yang's eyes sparkled as she took a sip of her drink. "I'm going for it."
"Go ahead," Chu Yang replied.
Chu Yang watched as Jin Yang made her way through the crowd, approaching Susan and the others. She joined the handsome men who were dancing enthusiastically. Jin Yang took a deep breath, reached out, and touched one of them, then immediately jumped up in excitement.
For a brief moment, she experienced the joy of being a wealthy woman!
Meanwhile, Chu Yang's phone vibrated. It was a message from Chi Yan: "Is it over? Do you want me to pick you up?"
Chu Yang glanced around the venue and replied: "No need, it's not over yet. If you come, everyone won't be able to enjoy themselves properly. Tonight is our girls' party, so don't come."
"Alright, be careful. Call me if anything happens."
"Okay."
As Chu Yang was messaging Chi Yan, a man sitting across from her had been eyeing her intently. He stood up and sat down next to her, asking, "Are you alone?"
Chu Yang looked up. It was a man in a suit, reasonably good-looking, but the arrogance on his face made Chu Yang mentally dock a few points.
Chu Yang shifted away slightly and shook her head.
The man pulled out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Chu Yang. "Hello, I'm Du Chao. Can I get your contact information?"
Chu Yang saw that the card read "Du Chao, General Manager of Linhai Group." She didn't take it and said, "I'm sorry, but my family doesn't allow me to add strangers to my contacts." She moved away again, making her rejection clear.
Du Chao was surprised to be turned down. He chuckled, putting the card back in his pocket, and looked at Chu Yang. The colorful, dim lights of the bar created a captivating atmosphere, enhancing people's features. To others, Chu Yang looked like a little white rabbit that had wandered into the darkness.
Her beautiful face, long eyelashes, and small, rosy lips made Du Chao swallow hard.
Chu Yang felt the man's gaze becoming uncomfortably sticky. She picked up her bag, intending to move somewhere else, but unexpectedly, the man reached out and grabbed her wrist. "What do you want? I can buy you bags, jewelry, accessories. Do you want..."
Before he could finish, Chu Yang yanked her hand away and ran towards the restroom without acknowledging him.
The man couldn't follow her into the ladies' room, so he waited outside, hoping to catch her when she came out.
Jin Yang, returning from the crowd and not seeing Chu Yang, immediately called her. "Hello? Yang Yang, where are you?"
"I'm in the bathroom. I'll be out in a moment."
"Okay, I'll wait for you."
Still excited and feeling thirsty, Jin Yang grabbed a nearby glass and drank from it. What she didn't know was that the drink had been spiked.
Shortly after, Chu Yang came out of the bathroom. To her surprise, the man was still there and immediately approached her. "What's your name? Tell me."
Chu Yang ignored him. "Get lost." She looked over to where they had been sitting earlier and saw a man supporting Jin Yang.
Chu Yang ran over. "What are you doing?"
The man, seeing another beautiful woman approach, grinned lecherously. "What am I doing? Well, of course, I'm going to... Ow!"
Noticing Jin Yang's unnaturally flushed face, Chu Yang immediately kicked the man in the groin. He let out a yell, releasing Jin Yang and crouching down in pain.
Du Chao, who was about to approach, suddenly froze, feeling a chill run down his spine. Was this the same little white rabbit from before?
Chu Yang supported Jin Yang and felt her face. It was hot. She had just called her excitedly earlier, so she must have been drugged.
Miya and the others noticed and came over. "What's wrong?"
Chu Yang said, "Jin Yang seems to have been drugged. I'm taking her home first." Miya and the others were shocked. "Yes, go quickly!"
Susan checked her watch. It was past eleven. "It's getting late. Let's all leave."
"Okay."
As they were preparing to leave, the man Chu Yang had kicked stood up. "I'd like to see who dares to leave!"
Suddenly, several men approached and surrounded them.
The people dancing nearby noticed and formed a circle to watch.
Miya shielded Chu Yang behind her. "What do you want? I'm calling the police." She took out her phone.
However, one of the men immediately snatched her phone away. The man glared viciously at Chu Yang and her friends. "I dare you to call the police. Ask around and find out who I am! Even if the police come, it won't matter!"
At this moment, the bar manager walked over, smiling and offering a cigarette to the man. "Oh, Young Master Wang! My apologies for the poor service. It's all a misunderstanding. They're just young girls. I apologize on their behalf. Your bill for tonight is on the house."
The man called Young Master Wang slapped the manager hard across the face. The manager held his face, his head turned to the side. "Who do you think you are to interfere in Young Master Wang's business?"
The man then turned to Chu Yang. "You want to leave? Fine. You, come here and serve me, and I'll consider letting you all go!" His lecherous gaze swept over Chu Yang.
Du Chao, who had initially wanted to play the hero, hesitated when he heard it was Young Master Wang. After a moment's hesitation, he still stepped forward. "So it's Young Master Wang. Hello, I'm Du Chao, from the Du family."
Wang Zhong sized up Du Chao. "From the Du family? Is this your woman?"
Du Chao smiled. "We're... friends."
Wang Zhong sneered. "Friends? If she's not your woman, why are you getting involved?" Then he turned to Chu Yang and her group. "Grab that girl for me!"
Chu Yang was about to use her witchcraft to teach Wang Zhong a lesson when suddenly, a voice rang out from outside the crowd. "Try touching her, I dare you."
Everyone turned to look at the newcomer. At the entrance of the bar stood a man holding a woman's coat. He was wearing a black suit, standing there with an estimated height of over 180 cm. In the dim bar light, he looked like a dark emperor. His features were exquisite, his demeanor cold and noble.
Wang Zhong looked at the newcomer. "Who are you?"
Chi Yan ignored him and looked at Chu Yang. "Come here."
Chu Yang supported Jin Yang as she walked over, with Miya and the others quickly following. "Why did you come?"
Seeing that the man was ignoring him, Wang Zhong's temper flared. "What are you waiting for? Beat him to death!"
Suddenly, several men in black suits walked in from the entrance and stood beside Chi Yan. "Young Boss."
When Wang Zhong's people saw this, they immediately became intimidated. It was clear these were professional bodyguards, and no one dared to approach.
Chi Yan asked Chu Yang, "What's going on?"
Chu Yang looked toward Jin Yang and said, "Jin Yang has been drugged. We should take her to the hospital first to get checked out."
Chi Yan looked at Qi Jie, who quickly took charge of the situation. "Miss Chu, I'll take her to the hospital right away. You should go back with the BOSS first."
Miya also chimed in hurriedly, "Yang Yang, you should head back first. We'll take care of her."
The others nodded in agreement.
Chu Yang glanced at Chi Yan, noticing that he didn't seem to be in a good mood, then nodded.
Chi Yan held her hand as they walked out of the bar. The night air was a bit chilly, so Chi Yan draped his jacket over her shoulders before helping her into the car.
