Chapter 323: Chapter 323 – I Want Her!
Since moving to the city, Huang Xiaolong hasn’t visited a bar yet.

Now, walking in with the young Bai Ping, Huang Xiaolong was getting his first real introduction to bar life.

Flashing lights and deafening heavy-metal music shook one’s soul and brought an air of excitement. On stage, a few blonde, blue-eyed foreigners were scantily clad, seductively pole dancing. The dance floor was crowded with people of both sexes, wild with abandon, unleashing their excess hormones.

In some dark corners, people were popping white pills like candies, then shaking their heads in a sort of frenzy. Some couples were even openly engaging in passionate acts.

Well… this was truly the paradise for the fallen!

As soon as Bai Ping entered, she got into the mood, swaying her slim waist to the rhythm of the music. Apparently, she was a regular patron, greeted constantly by various ruffians and young chicks. Some punk kids even tried to grope her, only to be brushed away by an irritated Bai Ping.

To be honest, Huang Xiaolong didn’t enjoy this smoky and unhealthy environment.

He stepped forward and asked Bai Ping, “Whose got the flash drive? Please hurry up and give me the flash drive, you can continue to enjoy yourself afterward.”

“Pft  Master, this place is so much fun, don’t you think? You look so out of place” Bai Ping giggled.

A slight glare from Huang Xiaolong made Bai Ping shrink back in fear. She stuck out her tongue and dared not say much more, muttering, “Master, don’t be mad, I understand. I will take you to get the flash drive now.”

Suddenly, Huang Xiaolong spotted something out the corner of his eye, directed toward a corner.

There was a group of seemingly college students, drinking and playing dice, having a great time. Among them, a beautiful young woman stood out, her eyebrow furrowed, seeming out of place.

“Huh? Isn’t that what’s her name? Fang Shijie’s daughter… what’s her name again? Right, Fang Zhaoyue…” Huang Xiaolong paused, “This girl is quite wild, just had her ghost baby removed and now she’s partying up in a bar…”

Huang Xiaolong stayed silent.

However, in such a mixed bag of a bar, Fang Zhaoyue was like a refreshing stream, giving Huang Xiaolong a sense of purity amidst the mud.

Of course, Huang Xiaolong had no intention of greeting Fang Zhaoyue.

Soon, Bai Ping brought Huang Xiaolong to a bar counter.

Behind the counter, a young man in a white dress shirt and bow tie was mixing cocktails. The sound of clinking glasses and utensils collided, as though he was playing a melody. His technique was quite a sight to behold.

“Xiong Fei, where’s the flash drive I lent you? Give it to me.” Bai Ping banged on the counter carelessly, then turned around and shot Huang Xiaolong a flattering smile. “Master, this is my bestie ‘Xiong Fei’, he’s the chief cocktail bartender of Spring bar”

“Oh.” Huang Xiaolong nodded perfunctorily.

At a glance, this ‘Xiong Fei’ seemed quite young and handsome. Being the chief cocktail bartender of the bar, he was quite popular. Indeed, many women near the bar were staring at Xiong Fei with infatuated gazes, admiring his skillful bartending. Among them were some beautiful and wealthy women.

But Huang Xiaolong could see that in Xiong Fei’s eyes when he looked at Bai Ping, there was a complicated expression – admiration! Passion! But… a sense of inferiority!

Bai Ping was educated in a prestigious school, and her family owned a not-so-small hotel, clearly a rich young miss who also happened to be beautiful. Although her personal life was a bit chaotic, she was still the typical goddess in the eyes of nerds and a green tea bitch in the eyes of rich and handsome men.

‘Damn, this is the exact kind of scenario the Internet talks about, when a nerd falls for a green tea bitch, isn’t it?’ Huang Xiaolong found it quite boring.

“Pingping, who is he?” At this point, Xiong Fei cast a jealous glance at Huang Xiaolong.

“This is Master, whom I look up to the most. The Master is very manly Bai Ping stared at Huang Xiaolong with adoration.

Upon hearing this, a hint of resentment flashed in Xiong Fei’s eyes. He said sorrowfully, “Pingping! You… you… I don’t know what to say… You keep getting to know men who deceive you! They don’t really like you! They are just playing with your feelings! Master? What kind of master is this? Pingping, you’ve been cheated again! In the past two years, I’ve seen you get…”

“Enough! Enough!” Bai Ping became impatient. “Xiong Fei, are you out of your mind? Such an incredible person as the Master, does he need to lie to me? Okay, cut the crap, quickly give me the flash drive. I lent it to you several days ago, you’ve already copied the video onto your computer, haven’t you?”

“Pingping!” Xiong Fei stomped his foot in frustration, then glared at Huang Xiaolong angrily. “I’m telling you! Not as long as I am here. You can’t deceive Pingping! Pingping is young, hasn’t experienced the cunning and deceit in society… you… you better stay away from Pingping?”

“Ha I think you’ve misunderstood.” Huang Xiaolong shrugged. “You like her, right? From the look of things, you’re really infatuated. I hope you manage to finally move her, and she accepts you. But I don’t have the slightest relationship with her. Today, I came for the USB stick. Hand it over to me.”

Bai Ping was also dissatisfied, but what worried her more was that her best friend had offended Huang Xiaolong and could get into trouble. She hurriedly said, “Xiong Fei! Take out the USB stick! I told you to take it out!”

Xiong Fei was convinced that Huang Xiaolong was the new guy Bai Ping was seeing, and he felt very unpleasant toward him. He was reluctant to hand over the USB drive to Huang Xiaolong, but he was also afraid of angering Bai Ping. So, after thinking for a moment, he yelled at Huang Xiaolong. “The USB stick is with me! But if you want to get it… it won’t be that easy! Unless you… you compete with me in cocktail making! If you win, I’ll give you the USB stick! If you lose, stop fooling Pingping from now on!”

“I mean… can you stop being so childish?” Huang Xiaolong felt utterly speechless.

“Xiong Fei, have you gone mad! You are the chief bartender at ChunTian Bar, and you have even participated in the Binhai Bartending Competition and won awards… You… you’re challenging a master to a cocktail-making contest, have you no shame?” As his close friend, Bai Ping felt utterly embarrassed by Xiong Fei’s behavior.

Every profession has its masters, and although Huang Xiaolong was like a living deity in the eyes of Bai Ping, having him compete with Xiong Fei in bartending was clearly a futile effort; he stood no chance against Xiong Fei!

Many people near the bar heard what Xiong Fei said and immediately gathered around.

You should know that Xiong Fei has a significant reputation in the entire Binhai’s bartending community. Being famous naturally attracts many challengers.

Each challenge was always exciting, Xiong Fei would display his extraordinary talent in bartending, making people marvel and defeating his challengers convincingly.

Today, for the first time, Xiong Fei challenging someone to a cocktail-making contest on his own!

This looks interesting!

Meanwhile…

In a VIP room of ChunTian Bar…

Gao Tianxiang, accompanying the leader of the ‘Rattlesnake Mercenary Group’ and a few elite members, were sitting in the VIP room having drinks.

Under their enveloping aura, the entire VIP room was filled with a bloody atmosphere.

It was like a pool of blood!

“Boss, I’ll ask the bar owner to send a few pretty girls over.” Gao Tianxiang said with a flattering smile.

“Gao, in Binhai, you’re the big fish. Can all the girls here be played by you?” The leader looked out of the room’s half-closed door towards the bar.

“Ha ha ha Boss, of course. In Binhai, our Gao family is at the top of the food chain. Yes, in this bar, any woman you guys fancy can be brought here on your orders. They’ll kneel and serve. They’ll do anything,” Gao Tianxiang said as if it was a matter of fact.

“Ha ha ha ha  Well, Gao, I want to play with that woman, make sure you notice her, it’s that one…” The leader pointed into the hall.

Gao Tianxiang followed the leader’s direction and looked out.

He saw a group of young men and women in one corner of the hall, all appearing to be college students, having a fun time.

“Oh, Boss, you have excellent taste. The one in the plain dress, right? Really pure. Okay, Boss, I’ll arrange it immediately,” Gao Tianxiang laughed.

The young woman that Boss had set his eyes on was none other than—

Fang Zhaoyue!!!!

“Interesting, Gao, I want her! Tonight, I want only her!” The leader’s dark brown eyes radiated a burning desire.
