"Two of you guard the front door, another two watch the back door to prevent Li Dabiao from escaping, the rest follow me inside and blend into the crowd, waiting for my orders."
In the parking lot of Dark Night Bar, a beautiful woman wearing a red coat instructed.
Even with the coat covering her, her slender swan-like neck remained exposed to the air, adorned with a worn light green necklace.
Below that was skin as white and delicate as mutton-fat jade.
And a pair of powerful yet slim beautiful legs.
Sitting in the black business sedan, the lead bodyguard nodded in response.
"Yes, Young Miss!"
Han Zhiqi gave a few more instructions, then walked into Dark Night Bar in her silver-gray low heels.
The bar was unusually quiet when Han Zhiqi entered, and just as she was wondering why.
An excited shout rang out.
"Young Master Xu is covering all drinks tonight!"
The whole place erupted!
The cheers of men and women were endless.
Accompanied by rhythmic, pulsating music.
Han Zhiqi's delicate eyebrows curved slightly, "Why is he here too?"
There was an indescribable meaning in her expression.
She strode quickly toward the second floor with her long legs!
While the first floor wasn't cheap, the second floor's prices were ridiculous.
To get a table upstairs, money alone wasn't enough - you needed status and connections.
Due to Han Zhiqi's stunning beauty.
She attracted many young men trying to chat her up as she moved through the crowd.
But they were all scared away by a single glare from her.
Just as Han Zhiqi was about to go upstairs, another figure blocked her path.
"Get out of my way!" she said coldly.
She seemed ready to use force!
"It's me! Lin Fan!" Lin Fan shouted back.
The bar was filled with deafening music at this point, and you had to speak loudly to be heard.
Han Zhiqi came to her senses and looked the man over.
Her first impression of Lin Fan hadn't been good.
Especially those pretentious, show-off words he'd said before leaving.
They made her feel sick.
"Did you reserve a table upstairs?" Lin Fan asked.
Han Zhiqi nodded.
Lin Fan's face lit up, "Take me up with you!"
Han Zhiqi blinked, instinctively wanting to refuse. Being around Lin Fan made her uncomfortable, like it was embarrassing.
However, before she left home, Han Xiong had specifically told her.
To cooperate with Lin Fan's actions as much as possible!
After thinking for a moment.
Han Zhiqi decided to take Lin Fan upstairs.
As soon as they reached the second floor, the style and class were completely different from downstairs.
While there were plenty of internet-famous beauties downstairs.
The quality upstairs was in a completely different league!
A college-aged girl in a sailor uniform and ripped black fishnet stockings gave Lin Fan a flirtatious look.
Well, that's what happens when you're the protagonist!
Honestly, if he didn't have business to attend to and wasn't accompanied by Han Zhiqi.
Lin Fan would have gone over to chat her up already.
Obviously, that college girl's looks and family background weren't on the same level as Han Zhiqi!
She was pretty, around 8.5 out of 10.
In the category of "would definitely date."
But compared to a goddess-tier beauty, she was far behind.
Soon, the two arrived at their reserved table.
The booth wasn't as luxurious as Xu Mo's, but it was much higher-end than downstairs.
It was also in a fairly central location.
Three booths away from Xu Mo's, coincidentally positioned diagonally opposite.
In other words, they could see each other.
In fact, when Han Zhiqi led Lin Fan upstairs.
It caused quite a stir on the second floor.
Everyone in the underworld knew the Han family.
Plus Han Zhiqi's exceptional beauty and hot figure.
Could easily stir any man's hormones.
Many young heirs from prominent families wanted to get close to this future queen of the underworld.
Li Dabiao hadn't left.
He was also on the second floor, just waiting at another booth for Xu Mo's instructions.
As Xu Mo was the young master of Magic City.
And his boss.
It was rare for him to come play in this area.
Li Dabiao definitely had to fulfill his duties as a host.
Lin Fan saw his enemy and felt his blood boiling.
Li Dabiao had four or five bodyguards with him, plus his own fighting ability.
It wouldn't be easy to quickly kill Li Dabiao in the chaos.
"Miss Han, I hope you can help me with a small favor!"
Lin Fan suddenly spoke up!
A man needs thick skin to succeed!
Without thick skin, you can't accomplish great things.
At this moment, Han Zhiqi's gaze was fixed on Xu Mo's direction, her fox-like phoenix eyes entrancing, lost in thought about something.
Lin Fan followed Han Zhiqi's line of sight.
And saw she was staring at Xu Mo's area.
Lin Fan didn't think too much about it, assuming Han Zhiqi was just distracted.
"Miss Han, I hope you can help me with a small favor!"
This time Lin Fan spoke louder.
Han Zhiqi snapped back to reality, frowning slightly, and asked mockingly: "Didn't you say before that 'having more people would only slow down your punches'?"
Lin Fan, whose face was thicker than a city wall.
Naturally wouldn't take such small matters to heart.
"I didn't think it through at the time, I hope Miss Han can be generous."
Lin Fan showed a devilish smile.
Han Zhiqi opened a bottle of champagne, poured herself a glass, and took a sip.
"Fine, how do you want me to help?"
Lin Fan's displeasure instantly disappeared, and he smiled.
"You can see Li Dabiao over there, I need you to cut the bar's power later, I'll finish this quickly!"
Han Zhiqi thought for a moment and said, "That works, conveniently there are no surveillance cameras on the second floor to protect the privacy of the wealthy and powerful."
Lin Fan's face lit up, he poured himself a drink and tried to refill Han Zhiqi's glass.
Han Zhiqi moved her wine glass away.
Not letting Lin Fan help.
"I still have wine in my glass, no need to trouble Mr. Lin."
Lin Fan didn't mind, raised his glass and smiled, "Miss Han, let's have a toast! This one's to you."
Han Zhiqi absent-mindedly clinked glasses with him.
Took a sip.
Then her gaze unconsciously drifted back to Xu Mo's direction.
Lin Fan drained his glass.
After he kills Li Dabiao.
He'll escape in the chaos.
He had just toured the bar's layout.
He knew where to hide and which areas weren't covered by surveillance cameras.
Now he just needed to wait for the right moment!
When everyone was letting loose.
As for why Shen Manni was over at Xu Mo's table.
It would be self-deceptive for Lin Fan to say he didn't care!
He was actually quite bothered by it!
Lin Fan had Red Rose thoroughly investigate Shen Manni's background.
He knew Shen Manni was a good girl.
She wouldn't normally come to a place like this!
Either Xu Mo used some method.
Either unspeakable means.
Or business-related threats.
Lin Fan believed it was the latter.
"Xu Mo, just wait for death! After I kill Li Dabiao, I'll collect some interest in the chaos!"
A fierce look flashed in Lin Fan's eyes.
The more arrogant Xu Mo acted, the more annoyed he became!
At the central booth---
Xu Mo had already spotted this pair.
He was feeling extremely awkward right now.
Not because seeing Lin Fan made him nervous.
Xu Mo was uneasy because of Han Zhiqi.
After all, Han Zhiqi was one of the six girls he dated simultaneously in middle school!
"Damn, why did she come too?"
One was an ex, one was an ex-ex-ex...
As they say, seeing an ex makes your eyes red with emotion.
With other exes, Xu Mo wouldn't be so nervous.
But Han Zhiqi was different---
Simply put, she was one of the female protagonists.
The type who could kill without blinking.
If he could do it over, he definitely wouldn't have tried to pursue Han Zhiqi.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.

spital. Good news: I've bound a system. Bad news: I'm still a baby. "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully the middle-aged for being poor — Divorce Comeback System." "Your marriage may have failed, but your luck in love has never run dry. Your childhood sweetheart, out of contact for twenty years, reappears. Her beauty remains, yet her eyes are brimming with tears." [Listen to the childhood sweetheart's sorrowful story.] Chen Zhi looked down at the diaper he was wearing, then at the little childhood sweetheart crying her heart out beside him, and fell into deep thought. Can anyone relate? I'm having a midlife crisis at an age where even rolling over is a struggle.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
