Wang Teng was already stunned, but he dared not disobey. After all, he had signed a contract with his internet celebrity company.
If he didn’t listen to the company or tried to go solo, the penalty would be at least a hundred million yuan.
Where was he supposed to get that kind of money?
“Sorry, sorry...”
Wang Teng apologized to everyone present one by one, then slunk away quietly into the crowd.
Xu Mu looked around and noticed that many people had little hearts or positive points hovering above their heads.
He opened his system to check and saw that he had nearly two thousand points of Justice Value.
However, most of these came from Ye Tong, Ye Yu, and Meng Wanyue.
The four of them continued to stroll around. Every time they bought snacks, Xu Mu would buy three portions at once.
One for Ye Tong, one for Ye Yu, and one for Meng Wanyue.
After wandering around for a while, they finally left the place.
Meng Wanyue stayed behind the wheel, unaware that her previously gloomy mood had suddenly brightened.
Perhaps it was because she was out with Xu Mu to relax. Though she was just a bodyguard, Xu Mu never forgot about her no matter what he did.
“All right, where to next?”
Xu Mu turned to look at Ye Tong and Ye Yu.
Ye Tong and Ye Yu exchanged glances, unsure where to go.
Their main reason for coming here was to visit their old home, but the Ye Family Manor had already been demolished.
“Sis, since you don’t have a destination, I have a place I want to go,” Ye Yu said suddenly, smiling brightly.
“Heh, go ahead,” Ye Tong nodded with a smile.
“I want to check out a bar. I’ve never been to one before,” Ye Yu said, linking arms with Ye Tong.
“No way!”
Ye Tong’s expression instantly changed. “That’s not a good place. Why would you want to go to a bar?”
“I just want to see what it’s like.”
Ye Yu held up three fingers. “Sis! I promise, I’ll only go once, and I definitely won’t go again.”
“I said no!”
Ye Tong’s tone was firm and unyielding.
Xu Mu observed Ye Tong at that moment. Her slight frown and angry expression somehow looked adorable.
“Sis-in-law~”
Ye Yu pouted slightly and gave Xu Mu a pleading look.
“Your sister is right. Drinking causes trouble. You’re both so beautiful—what if some drunk guys take advantage of you?”
Xu Mu chimed in.
[Affection +10]
Ye Tong glanced at Xu Mu, thinking, “As expected of my husband, he’s on my side.”
After speaking, Xu Mu quickly sent a message to Ye Yu: “We’ll sneak out together when we have time.”
“All right then.” Ye Yu pouted but agreed.
Suddenly, her phone vibrated. After checking the message, her adorable dimples appeared.
[Affection +10]
Ye Yu secretly winked at Xu Mu. “As expected of my brother-in-law.”
Xu Mu smiled quietly, enjoying the double win.
In the end, Ye Tong decided on today’s itinerary: first the zoo, then the memorial hall—both very wholesome places.
Xu Mu checked his phone and saw that just from walking, he had already taken over thirty thousand steps today.
Before they knew it, night had fallen.
Ye Tong had planned to head back, but Ye Yu suggested they stay in Yang City for the night and go to the beach tomorrow.
This time, Xu Mu spoke up for Ye Yu. Since tomorrow was Sunday, staying out a bit longer wouldn’t hurt.
They had booked two rooms: Xu Mu shared one with Ye Tong, while Ye Yu stayed with Meng Wanyue in the other.
At some point, Ye Yu found a casual excuse to say she wanted to go out shopping with Xu Mu.
Xu Mu agreed, telling Meng Wanyue to stay with Ye Tong so the two could talk.
Once they successfully left the hotel, Ye Yu immediately linked her arm with Xu Mu’s. “Brother-in-law, you’re so nice.”
“There’s no one else around here. Tell me, why do you want to go to a place like that?” Xu Mu glanced at Ye Yu calmly.
“I like the unknown. I want to experience the world in its entirety,” Ye Yu said, tilting her head to look up at the bright moon above. Under the city’s neon lights, it wasn’t all that noticeable.
Xu Mu recalled Ye Yu’s nature — in later times, she was a little devil, always scheming.
She would trick people in various ways, then hand over the treasures she obtained to the Dragon King.
“I’ll make it clear first: you can only have some low-alcohol cocktails or red wine, and we can’t stay longer than an hour,” Xu Mu said, ruffling Ye Yu’s hair.
“Okay,” Ye Yu nodded.
Only then did Xu Mu take out his phone and open the map, spotting a nearby bar.
Its name was Dark Moon.
It wasn’t far, so he planned to head there.
The two walked along the sidewalk, the street bustling with cars and people.
After about ten minutes, they arrived in front of the bar.
Xu Mu looked up at the sign; it seemed freshly renovated.
“Let’s go!” he said, taking the initiative to hold Ye Yu’s hand as they stepped inside.
Inside, Ye Yu found the place resembled a restaurant — groups of friends chatting and drinking in twos and threes.
They walked deeper inside, reaching the stage area where lights flickered.
Men and women stood there, swaying and shouting along to the music.
Ye Yu’s eyes scanned the surroundings, observing everyone present.
Suddenly, she pointed to the second floor. “Brother-in-law, what’s upstairs?”
“I don’t know,” Xu Mu replied, shaking his head lightly. He briefly scanned the area with his senses and said, “If I’m not mistaken, it should be…”
Xu Mu suddenly froze. A woman appeared in his perception.
She was wearing a form-fitting black dress, seated in a vintage-style private room.
Besides her, there were three men.
This woman was Feng Yue.
Xu Mu could hardly believe it — to encounter her again so soon.
Unexpectedly, she had opened a bar on the outskirts of Yang City.
She was smiling seductively, chatting and laughing with the men. Next to her was a man with a crew cut, about thirty-five years old.
Xu Mu recognized him — Chai Xiongtao, eldest son of the Chai Family Group.
The Chai family was powerful in Yang City; they controlled over ninety percent of the city’s entertainment industry.
Once, the Chai family trailed just behind the Xu and Feng families, but the Xu family had since fallen out of the top ten.
Currently, the Chai and Feng families were vying for a spot in the top five.
Chai Xiongtao held a glass in one hand and gently tested the waters with the other before resting it on Feng Yue’s shoulder.
Feng Yue’s smile grew even more enchanting, practically weaving a web of seductive glances.
“Brother-in-law?” Ye Yu’s voice pulled Xu Mu back to reality.
“Huh? What is it?” Xu Mu looked down at Ye Yu.
“I’ve called you several times already. What are you thinking about?”
Ye Yu nudged Xu Mu’s arm. “What did you say the second floor was just now?”
“Probably some private rooms,” Xu Mu replied with a smile.
“If it’s private rooms, then we won’t go upstairs. Let’s just have a drink here at the bar.”
Ye Yu’s main reason for coming this time was to see someone. If it was private rooms, she might as well just drink with her brother-in-law at home.
Xu Mu nodded lightly and led Ye Yu to sit at the bar. He ordered two low-alcohol drinks for her.
After that, he fell into deep thought.
He felt that everyone has their own way of living.
Feng Yue had nothing to do with him; whatever she did was her own freedom.
Yet, Xu Mu couldn’t help but use his intuition to check out the second floor.
He didn’t know why, but he had this strange feeling, as if he was being cheated on.
Just then, in Feng Yue’s private room, two other men laughed as they got up to leave, leaving only Feng Yue and Chai Xiongtao inside.
