Chapter 63
After a simple lunch, Bai Zhou drove to Dong’an Bar, as instructed by Li Tai. This bar was within Li Tai’s sphere of influence. It was also one of the most important hubs for his underground activities.
The bar’s business hours were from 2 PM to 5 AM the next day. Although it was already 3 PM, there weren’t many customers in the bar. After all, who in their right mind would come to a bar in the middle of the afternoon?
Looking at the sign that read “Dong’an Bar” in front of him, “Hiss … this Dong’an Bar …”
A gleam of light flashed in Bai Zhou’s eyes. It seemed to have triggered a memory from the original novel. Although Li Tai was the local kingpin of the Magic City, his early dealings were far from clean. Following the typical plot of traditional novels, government officials had long been keeping an eye on this place.
They had planted all sorts of undercover agents within it. And as expected in the original novel, this place was no exception to a series of cliché developments!
Most importantly: “Chu Yun, the original male lead!!”
Thinking of this, Bai Zhou, on a sudden impulse, decided not to enter through the front door of the bar. Instead, he circled around to the back alley behind the bar, coming out from the parking lot. This alley led to the back door of the bar. Bai Zhou remembered from the original novel, this was where the original male lead, Chu Yun, was aimlessly wandering like some drifter. Then, a beautiful woman, who was being chased by a group of men in black, suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
Chu Yun, being the lecherous man that he was, couldn’t resist walking toward a beautiful woman in need. Seeing this situation, how could he miss the chance to play the hero and save the damsel, showing off his prowess?
He immediately displayed his martial skills and took down the group of men in black, earning the admiration of the beautiful woman! What was even more ridiculous—Chu Yun was truly the protagonist.
It turned out this woman was actually an undercover government officer who had been investigating Dong’an Bar in secret. She was discovered by Li Tai’s men and was being chased, only to run into Chu Yun at the perfect moment.
This was Chu Yun’s first encounter with Li Tai, and this female officer naturally became the fourth female lead of the original novel. Moreover, her background was anything but ordinary, and in the future, she provided significant assistance to Chu Yun on his journey.
Bai Zhou glanced up at the sun in the sky, rubbing his chin as he thought to himself: “If I remember correctly, in the novel, Chu Yun first met the fourth female lead in the afternoon, right?”
Just as Bai Zhou finished murmuring these words, “Thud thud thud thud thud—” A series of hurried footsteps echoed from around the corner of the alley.
“Damn!” Bai Zhou froze: “Could it be that coincidental?!”
Then, he saw a strange figure running out from around the corner of the alley!
The problem was, this “strange figure” was very beautiful! Her long hair fluttered behind her as she ran. Her outfit was incredibly revealing.
A tight, cropped T-shirt that exposed her toned midriff, and below that, an incredibly short pleated skirt. She was also wearing crystal high heels. She looked no different from a woman straight out of a nightclub. But her running posture—calling her a strange creature was quite accurate.
At that moment, the woman also spotted Bai Zhou. Her nervous eyes lit up instantly. With a quick step, she rushed over to Bai Zhou. She forcefully pushed him against the wall.
“What the heck!! Am I about to be forcefully kissed again?!”
The taste of Ye Qiantong’s kiss hadn’t even faded from his lips, and now another one???
Sure enough, Bai Zhou was stunned.
How could he not be?
Why were all the female characters in this novel so wild?! This didn’t make sense!!
Bai Zhou began to suspect that there was something strange about his own physique.
Before he could react, even more chaotic footsteps approached. Around the corner of the alley, four or five men in black appeared, rushing toward them. Seeing the scene at the mouth of the alley, the men in black all froze simultaneously!
Then, one of them patted his companion on the shoulder and said: “Hey, is this woman an idiot? Does she think we can’t recognize her in broad daylight?”
The companion nodded in agreement: “I think she’s read too many online novels. In those stories, women often grab a random passerby and kiss them to escape pursuit.”
“Hmm!!”
The others nodded in heavy agreement: “Good point!”
Bai Zhou, of course, noticed the reactions of these men in black. But the woman pinning him against the wall—damn—had no kissing skills whatsoever. She was just pressing her lips against his, and it was starting to hurt!
Since she wouldn’t let go, and to avoid getting his lips chapped, Bai Zhou decided to teach her what a real kiss was.
The woman in front of him, Su Qiaoqiao, the fourth female lead of the original novel, in her desperation to escape the men in black, had randomly grabbed Bai Zhou and kissed him, hoping to hide.
She closed her eyes, praying in her mind: “Have they left? I don’t hear footsteps anymore, they must have left, right? I was too careless, I actually got caught! How could this …”
Her thoughts came to an abrupt halt!! Her mind went completely blank! Then, her bright, astonished eyes shot open. She stared incredulously at the man in front of her. To her surprise, he was quite handsome.
No! That’s not the point! The point is!! My first kiss!!
But, given the current situation, she didn’t have time to dwell on it. Those men in black who were chasing her couldn’t have gone far! At that moment, the four or five men in black were closing in, ready to capture Su Qiaoqiao.
However, one of them suddenly halted: “Wait!”
His sudden action caused everyone else to stop.
“What’s wrong?”
They all looked at the man who had stopped.
He stared ahead with wide eyes and, lowering his voice, said: “Isn’t that Brother Zhou?!”
That’s right, this man in black recognized him. He was one of the underlings who had been responsible for supervising Bai Zhou at the Yulong Group last time! He had ended up being utterly impressed by Bai Zhou’s strength.
He immediately waved his hand: “Let’s go … let’s leave quietly. Don’t disturb them!”
“Huh? What’s going on?”
The group was confused, but they followed the man and retreated back into the alley. Once they were back in the alley, they immediately started asking questions: “Hey! What did you see? Is there something wrong with that woman’s identity?”
“Also, who is this Brother Zhou?”
The underling took a deep breath and looked at them: “You guys don’t even know who Brother Zhou is?! Do you still want to keep your jobs?!”
