Zhao Yifei’s face was already covered in blood. When he grew agitated, his expression became even more ferocious and exceptionally terrifying. However, the attendant’s expression did not change from the beginning to the end. It was obvious that he was already used to such situations.

“Sir, please cooperate with us. It’s only proper to repay a debt. You destroyed the things in our shop, so of course, you have to pay. We’ll keep your dignity intact and hope that you won’t make things difficult for us,” the attendant said with a smile. However, a few huge bodyguards appeared behind him.

It was obvious that if Zhao Yifei didn’t compensate them today, he would have to stay here today.

Although Zhao Yifei was stubborn, he wasn’t stupid. He understood the principle that a wise man would not suffer losses in front of him. Therefore, when he saw the bodyguards, he immediately took out his bank card and grudgingly swiped it.

Only then did the waiter attendant the bodyguards to the side and let Zhao Yifei leave with a smile.

Zhao Yifei was furious. Just as he was about to walk out of the bar, he suddenly heard a voice from behind, “Zhao Yifei?”

Zhao Yifei turned his head and saw the culprit who had invited him over was walking towards him. Her face still had an obviously innocent and surprised expression. “What happened to your head?”

“Don’t even talk about it. It was your b*stard younger brother who smashed a bottle on me the moment we met. It hurt like hell. And you, didn’t you ask me to come here? Where were you? Why is that lunatic here instead? The more Zhao Yifei spoke, the angrier he got. He wished that he could rush out to find Zhao Youming and beat him up again.

She was dressed in black. The girl who had put on a pair of black gloves at some point in time was Zhao Youxi, who had run back from abroad a long time ago. She smiled and said, “I went to the bathroom. I didn’t expect you to come during then. So Zhao Youming was here? Is he still here now? I didn’t even notice him just now. Do you think he spotted me?”

“I don’t know where that guy ran off to. He was drunk just now. I don’t think he noticed you.” Zhao Yifei suddenly gnashed his teeth. “That damn b*stard. I knew he wouldn’t run away so easily. He left that mess behind and waited for me to clean it up for him. I’m so angry.”

Zhao Youxi rolled her eyes and said in a low voice, “Don’t be angry. The next few days will be hell for him. When we throw out another juicy story, he will never be able to turn things around.”

Zhao Youxi’s words immediately piqued Zhao Youming’s interest. “What juicy story?”

Zhao Youxi looked at Zhao Yifei’s bloodied face and smiled. She said indifferently, “Don’t worry. I will need your help with this last juicy story.”

“My help? My help! Of course I’ll help. As long as I can kill that guy, Zhao Youming, I’m willing to do anything. What kind of explosive material is it?”

“I told you not to be anxious, but you’re still being as rash as ever. Look at your bloody self. I’ll bandage it for you when we get home first. Then we’ll talk about how explosive this material is.”

Zhao Yifei was interested. He anxiously pulled Zhao Youxi’s hand and walked out. Zhao Youxi was pulled along by him and ran. In the swaying bag, the head of a glass bottle could be vaguely seen.

After leaving the bar, Zhao Youming did not go home immediately. Instead, he wandered outside. The blood on his body that belonged to Zhao Yifei had long become cold under the night wind. It was completely invisible in his dark-colored suit.

Zhao Youming walked along the road and slowly walked to a relatively quiet beach. As the night wind blew on the beach, Zhao Youming suddenly felt a little tired. He sat on the railing by the shore and stared blankly at the sparkling sea at night.

Gradually, Zhao Youming’s thoughts began to drift away unconsciously. He thought of all the painstaking effort he had put in all these years, but in the end, an inept playboy had ruined it all. All his previous efforts were in vain. Zhao Youming felt himself turning numb and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Too many things had happened in the past few days, so much so that Zhao Youming himself began to doubt whether he had taken the right path or not. Was it really worth it for him to sacrifice so much for that position?

The night breeze by the seaside was much colder than other places, but Zhao Youming didn’t notice it at all. He only felt the coolness of the night breeze slowly drive away the scorching heat in his body, and it made him calm down.

Even the turbulent sea not far away did not look as terrifying as he had imagined. Instead, it made people feel that the turbulent waves could help him calm down the impassable knot in his heart.

Zhao Youming quietly watched the scene, his eyes slowly losing focus, as if he was thinking about something, but also as if he was not thinking about anything at all.

After a long time, even Zhao Youming himself did not know how much time had passed. A phone call suddenly broke the silence and pulled Zhao Youming back from his reverie.

Zhao Youming took out his phone from his pocket and looked at the unfamiliar number on the screen. After a moment of hesitation, he picked up the call. “Hello, who is this?”

Zhao Youming never expected that a familiar voice would come from the other end of the phone. “Youming, it’s me.”

Zhao Youming stood up from the railing and held his phone tightly. He asked uncertainly, “Sister?”

“It’s me. Where are you now? Is it convenient for you to come out and meet me?”

Zhao Youming was stunned again. “Meet up? Sister, have you returned to Shalnork?”

The person on the other end of the phone immediately sounded worried and agitated. “Yes, I’m back. As soon as I came back, I heard about you. Where are you now?”

Zhao Youming’s heart suddenly warmed when he heard Zhao Youxi’s words. Everyone wanted nothing more than to have nothing to do with him now, but Zhao Youxi was willing to take the initiative to look for him under such circumstances. It was tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow.

“I’m outside now. Where are you now? Do you need me to come over and look for you?”

“No need. Let’s make an appointment to meet somewhere. Do you still remember the coffee shop we used to go to? Let’s meet there. I’ll be there in about fifteen minutes.”

“Okay, okay.” Zhao Youming hung up the phone and ran to the agreed place without thinking too much.

On the other side, after Zhao Youxi hung up the phone, she looked at her phone coldly. She was not as anxious and worried as she had been on the phone just now.

Then, she turned around and looked at the messy house behind her. There was no change in her eyes. She picked up the bag full of bloodstained clothes on the table. She carefully avoided the bloodstains on the ground and left the room that she had lived in for a few months without looking back.
