Xu Wenjun was naturally philandering; meeting a beauty would always trigger his passive trait.
This Jiang Yuen was as beautiful as a goddess; there was no reason to just stand there and watch.
Xu Wenjun was handsome and silver-tongued; as long as he spoke politely, even a female celebrity likely wouldn't refuse him.
Just as Zhang Yang said, picking up girls was mainly about being handsome.
For ugly guys, it wasn't called hitting on someone—it was pure harassment.
"I hit a brick wall; she told me to get lost!"
Xu Wenjun shrugged self-deprecatingly.
It wasn't that he didn't try to hit on her, but he was rejected in a split second.
This kind of setback was extremely rare in his entire career.
Being beautiful and having a personality was indeed attractive.
Zhang Yang was stunned; this was indeed unexpected.
"Lin Mo, aren't you going to try?"
Seeing Lin Mo taking photos of Jiang Yuen earlier showed he was interested, so Xu Wenjun immediately started egging him on.
Falling flat on one's face shouldn't be something he did alone.
His good brother had to hit a wall too for his own psychological balance.
Lin Mo didn't know how to explain, but before he could say anything, several men were already walking toward Jiang Yuen.
"A toad lusting after swan meat."
Seeing this, Xu Wenjun sneered with a laugh.
These guys looked like little hoodlums, with dyed yellow hair and tattooed arms—obviously street thugs.
The internet saying that guys with yellow hair were good at picking up girls was purely taking things out of context.
The girls these delinquent youths picked up were just delinquent girls like themselves.
With Jiang Yuen's ethereal aura, how could these low-life characters possibly covet her?
Sure enough, as soon as they spoke, Jiang Yuen told them to get lost.
From beginning to end, she didn't even spare them a glance, treating everyone the same.
Xu Wenjun felt much better; it seemed it wasn't his problem. But thinking he received the same treatment as these delinquent youths made him feel a bit frustrated.
But it wasn't over yet; after a while, those same people walked toward Jiang Yuen again.
This time, a man in a suit was leading the way.
The man was about in his early twenties and had a thuggish air; the suit on him gave off a 'refined scum' vibe.
Obviously, the man was the leader of these guys.
"The night is long; isn't it a bit boring for a lady to drink alone?"
The man in the suit leaned against the Bar counter, looking at Jiang Yuen with what he thought was a soulful gaze.
The whole scene was indescribably awkward.
"Get lost."
Jiang Yuen lowered her head, holding a colorful cocktail but not drinking it, telling the man to get lost without even looking at him.
She had argued with her mom and was in an extremely bad mood.
Moreover, it was her first time at a Bar and her first time ordering a cocktail, wanting to be brave and try something new.
"You brat, how dare you talk to our Young Master Wei like that?"
A yellow-haired guy, seeing his boss lose face, immediately started defending him.
Jiang Yuen ignored them and continued to toy with her glass.
"Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit; have a drink with our Young Master Wei."
Another person slapped the Bar counter in front of Jiang Yuen.
In the underworld, the most important thing was face.
In public like this, Jiang Yuen's attitude of ignoring them was simply infuriating.
"Truly rude and uncultured."
Xu Wenjun shook his head and said crossly.
That's not how you pick up girls.
This kind of forceful behavior was a disgrace to the world of picking up girls.
Lin Mo completely agreed, but he still pulled up the information on the man in the suit.
[Name] Liu Wei
[Age] 26 years old
[Trust Level]
[Personal Privacy] Started his business through illegal industries
[Identity] Shareholder of Venus Bar
[Black History] Drug use; multiple instances of brawling leading to permanent injury of others
[Current Thought] Has his eye on Jiang Yuen
...After reading this person's information, Lin Mo instantly knew he was scum.
This way, Jiang Yuen would be in danger.
At the Bar counter.
"If you don't drink this glass today, don't even think about leaving."
The yellow-haired guy slammed a glass in front of Jiang Yuen, looking a bit exasperated.
There were many guests at the Venus Bar, and they were at the central Bar counter, so many people were watching.
Failing to pick up a girl was common, but being treated as thin air by Jiang Yuen—if word got out, how could they save face in the future?
Jiang Yuen kept her head down, unmoved.
Seeing this, Liu Wei's temper flared up as well; it was the first time he had seen a woman so ungrateful.
As a lackey, the yellow-haired guy immediately understood and reached out to grab Jiang Yuen.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing how rude this person was, Jiang Yuen's beautiful face instantly changed.
In a society ruled by law, did someone really dare to act like a hooligan openly?
Just then, a figure blocked the yellow-haired guy.
"Isn't it a bit inappropriate to get physical with such a beautiful girl?"
The newcomer was Lin Mo; to prevent the situation from escalating, he had to step in.
Even if Jiang Yuen didn't become his sister-in-law, she was still Jiang Wanli's twin sister.
Reasonably and emotionally, Lin Mo couldn't just sit by and do nothing.
"Heh, a hero saving a beauty?"
The yellow-haired guy chuckled, looking at Lin Mo's bright and handsome appearance, not taking him seriously at all.
This kind of pretty boy was all just for show.
Lin Mo ignored the yellow-haired guy and instead opened his chat interface with Jiang Wanli on his phone, placing it in front of Jiang Yuen.
Seeing the contact name and her sister's profile picture, Jiang Yuen finally realized. To be safe, she even clicked on the social media ID and finally confirmed that Lin Mo was here to help her out of the predicament.
"My boyfriend is here. If you keep harassing me, I'll call the police."
Jiang Yuen stood up and leaned close to Lin Mo.
In the social class she belonged to, people were civilized and polite; no one would ever act like a hooligan or get physical over a disagreement.
Therefore, when the yellow-haired guy suddenly reached out to grab her just now, she was still frightened.
"Do you take me for a fool? You don't even know each other."
Liu Wei instantly flew into a rage, pointing at the two of them and roaring.
When Lin Mo first appeared, Jiang Yuen had a look of confusion on her face.
It was only after Lin Mo showed her the information on his phone that the doubt on her face vanished.
It was almost certain that the two were not a couple.
Lin Mo was about to say what difference does it make if they are a couple or not, when Jiang Yuen suddenly stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek.
The whole action was very awkward, as if she had mustered all her courage.
"You stupid bitch!"
Liu Wei no longer pretended to be refined and immediately burst into curses.
They had tried everything, using both soft and hard tactics, yet Jiang Yuen had told them to get lost from start to finish.
As soon as Lin Mo, this stranger, appeared, she offered a kiss.
Under this contrast, they looked like absolute clowns.
As a shareholder of Venus Bar, Liu Wei had never felt so humiliated on his own turf.
"Keep your mouth clean."
Lin Mo said coldly.
Although this kiss was a bit unexpected, it also made him determined to protect Jiang Yuen.
"How dare you talk to our Young Master Wei like that!"
A dozen or so lackeys immediately surrounded them.
Zhang Yang, Xu Wenjun, and the others also came to stand behind Lin Mo.
When it came to fighting, they had never been afraid of anyone in their lives.
Because she treated everyone the same, Jiang Yuen didn't recognize Xu Wenjun, whom she had told to get lost earlier.
The atmosphere on the scene was tense and explosive.
"Who dares to cause trouble here!"
Just then, the bar manager strode over.
