CHAPTER 333: CHAPTER 333: DESIRE OBSCURES REASON

Not long after she left the bathroom, Jiang Wen also walked out of it.

This time, she didn’t return to the private room but swaggered toward where Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan were sitting.

Lu Zechuan and Xia Mian were enjoying their meal, oblivious to the large shadow suddenly looming over them.

Xia Mian looked up and saw Jiang Wen, immediately frowning.

Since Song Juan divorced Xia Jianguo, Xia Yun and others couldn’t leech off the Song Family anymore, causing a ruckus at the Song Family’s company. After Xia Mian dealt with them, she thought these vampires had finally given up.

But now, it seemed she was wrong.

Jiang Wen leaned on the table with her hands, smiling at Xia Mian, "Cousin, long time no see!"

Xia Mian glanced at her, her expression indifferent, "Get lost, don’t disturb my meal."

Xia Mian’s expression was cold, and her words devoid of emotion.

Jiang Wen, however, didn’t take Xia Mian’s attitude seriously and continued smiling, "Cousin, don’t be so fierce! We used to sleep in the same bed when we were kids!"

Xia Mian’s gaze landed on Jiang Wen’s face, her thin lips slightly curved, and a chill appeared in her eyes, "Get lost."

Faced with Xia Mian’s gaze that seemed to pierce through to her soul, Jiang Wen’s courage quickly faded away.

Just then, Jiang Wen’s client came over from the private room.

Grumbling, he walked over, "What’s going on?"

This young lady here, so young and pretty, he was willing to give her a chance, but she didn’t seem to appreciate it?

She kept running to the bathroom during the meal!

Was she wary of him?

Jiang Wen heard the customer’s voice, turned around immediately, and plastered a smile on her face, "President Jin, why did you come out?"

Jin Nan’s greasy face showed a hint of impatience, "What are you up to? Going to the bathroom..."

He stopped midsentence as soon as he saw Xia Mian.

In his over forty years of life, he’s encountered countless women, but no woman had ever stunned him with a single glance like the one in front of him!

The impatience on Jin Nan’s face visibly melted away, quickly replaced by a broad smile, "Jiang Wen, who’s this young lady, do you know her?"

Enthralled by beauty, Jin Nan completely ignored the presence of Lu Zechuan opposite Xia Mian.

Lu Zechuan’s face instantly darkened.

Initially, he could overlook Jiang Wen’s interruption out of gentlemanly manner, but now Lu Zechuan had no desire to see this troublemaker ever again!

"Wherever you came from, go back there!" Lu Zechuan’s deep, hoarse voice slowly resonated.

After he spoke, the surrounding air seemed to chill considerably.

Jin Nan, being a somewhat well-known figure in Beijing, had never been treated so rudely, so his eyebrows scrunched up immediately.

Jiang Wen hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "President Jin, this is my cousin’s fiancé."

As for Lu Zechuan’s name, Jiang Wen deliberately left it out.

What a joke, who in the Capital City doesn’t know the name Lu Zechuan? If she mentioned it, Jin Nan would probably be scared witless immediately!

Jin Nan’s gaze lingered on Lu Zechuan for a moment. Although he thought Lu Zechuan looked outstanding and didn’t have the aura of an ordinary person, Jin Nan, entrenched in the company of women, had his entire attention on Xia Mian now and didn’t bother thinking about who Lu Zechuan really was.

Right then, he sneered mockingly, "This kid doesn’t seem too old; why is he in such a rush to find a wife? From the countryside, joined society without even finishing school, huh?"

Jiang Wen opened her mouth, "President Jin, my brother-in-law is not an ordinary person..."

Before Jiang Wen could finish her sentence, Jin Nan interrupted her, "Your cousin really catches my fancy; why don’t you introduce me?"

Jin Nan abruptly cut her off, continuing to ignore Lu Zechuan.

Lu Zechuan’s whole demeanor was immediately filled with fierce energy.

Before Jin Nan could react, he was already kicked out by Lu Zechuan.

"What kind of trash are you to think you’re worthy of knowing her!" Lu Zechuan said as he kicked Jin Nan away, his gaze slowly falling on Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen felt like Lu Zechuan saw right through her, starting to tremble involuntarily, "Brother-in-law, it’s not my fault..."

Lu Zechuan’s expression was indifferent, and his tone even colder, "Clown!"

Jiang Wen was so frightened she retreated continuously, the fear she had previously been ruled by under the two of them surfacing again.

Lu Zechuan didn’t bother to spare Jiang Wen another glance, turning to Xia Mian with a voice immediately softening, "Are you full?"

Xia Mian nodded, slowly dabbing her mouth with a napkin, "Let’s go!"

As for Jiang Wen, Xia Mian chose to outright ignore her.

After all, with her current capabilities, dealing with Jiang Wen would be as easy as crushing an ant; she didn’t even care to compete with Jiang Wen.

Xia Mian stood up, planning to leave with Lu Zechuan when Jin Nan suddenly shouted, "Stop!"

Hit someone and just walk away?

How could it be that easy!

Jin Nan eyed with a hint of malice; many of them doing projects came from street punks, inherently having a thuggish nature.

It’s just that after mingling in business circles for years, that thuggish nature slowly got suppressed.

But now, with Lu Zechuan’s kick, he couldn’t just let it go!

Lu Zechuan slowly turned around, his cold gaze settling on Jin Nan’s greasy face, "What’s your name?"

Jin Nan sneered, "Now you want to know who I am? Too late! Offending Mr. Jin means you won’t walk away unscathed!"

With that, Jin Nan took out his phone to call for backup.

Before long, the companions who were drinking with him in the private room came over, all of them somewhat tipsy from drinking earlier.

All are on the same shady path as Jin Nan, all cut from the same cloth.

They were perverted, and this group of them wouldn’t let Xia Mian and Lu Zechuan leave, cursing and yelling.

The commotion soon caught the restaurant’s attention, and the staff quickly came over to mediate.

Unfortunately, Jin Nan thought himself a person of some stature and, having been humiliated today, was dead set on seeking retribution.

The more the staff tried to persuade him, the more he got riled up, grabbing a bottle from a nearby table, smashing the bottom with a loud crack, and brandishing half of the broken bottle as he lunged toward Lu Zechuan!

The restaurant owner saw this and panicked, knowing if someone got hurt, his business was done for!

"Stop!" The owner tried to intervene but ended up getting hurt himself.

In the blink of an eye, Jin Nan charged at Lu Zechuan.

The owner went pale, fearing the worst, but saw Jin Nan, who was just inches away from Lu Zechuan, getting thrown backward...

Jin Nan’s large body hit the ground with a thud, startling the diners in the restaurant.
