“Teach me a lesson? Are you sure?” Shen Hanxing sneered. She grabbed the bottle on the table. Swiftly and decisively, she smashed the bottle.

Bang! Along with the bottle shattering, a panicked scream sounded in the room. Before the man with slanted eyes could react, Shen Hanxing had smashed a bottle of wine on his head. He touched his head in a daze, noticing his hand covered in blood.

“Stupid b*tch!” The man with slanted eyes instantly became ferocious. He grabbed a wine bottle and attacked Shen Hanxing, “I will teach you a lesson today!”

Shen Hanxing was calm. She grabbed the wrist of the man with slanted eyes. Her movements were neither fast nor slow and were even elegant and beautiful. She placed a knee on his stomach, twisted his arm, and knocked him to the ground. Then, she s.n.a.t.c.hed the bottle of wine from his hand and smashed it on his head.

Bang! Everyone heard another shattering sound. The man with slanted eyes was like a fish on the ground. He was on the verge of death. He struggled and rolled on the ground, and his eyes rolled back as he pa.s.sed out.

The man with the flowery shirt saw Shen Hanxing had taken down a man with a simple move. So, he stood up. “Mrs. Ji, what do you mean by doing this?”

“Nothing. I found that guy pleasing to the eye. So, I thought I might as well use him as my punching bag,” Shen Hanxing took out a napkin from the side and wiped the wine that had spilled on her hand. “It’s getting late. I’m going to take the kids home. Thank you for your hospitality.”

Ji Qian’s ears flushed red when Shen Hanxing called her a kid. She mumbled embarra.s.sedly, “I’m older than you, sister-in-law…” Although she said so, her lips lifted, feeling delightful. The feeling of being protected by a guardian and pampered as a child was addictive.

Ji Qian’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Shen Hanxing’s back with adoration. Zhuang Yu could not help but feel envious. There was a tinge of respect in her eyes as she looked at Shen Hanxing.

“Mrs. Ji, what kind of place do you think this is? Do you think you can come and go as you please?” The man in the flowery shirt was unhappy with Shen Hanxing’s att.i.tude. He did not hide his anger. “You can leave if you want, as long as you finish these things.” He took a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from his pocket and slammed them on the table. One cigarette a person, and we can forget about this matter. We can even be friends.”

“Sister-in-law, there’s something wrong with those cigarettes. Don’t smoke them!” Ji Qian was nervous and shouted, “before you came, these people had been trying to convince us to smoke!”

The man with a flowery shirt’s angry gaze landed on Ji Qian’s face. Ji Qian was so scared that her face turned pale, and she shrank her neck, not daring to speak.

“Mrs. Ji, what’s your choice?” The man in the flowery shirt smirked and had an evil thought. “As long as you smoke a cigarette, I guarantee no one will stop you from leaving.” When the others heard this, they surrounded her with evil thoughts. It was undeniable that if Shen Hanxing did not smoke this cigarette, they would not let them leave this place today.

“Smoke?” Shen Hanxing picked up the lighter and pressed it skillfully. Her beautiful fingertips started the fire. Her face looked as beautiful as a work of art with the flame shining on her face. She played with the lighter for a while. Then, she lifted her hand and threw it directly into the pocket of the flowery shirt. “What if I don’t smoke?”

“Mrs. Ji, it’s fine if you don’t smoke,” The shirt took the lighter and looked at Ji Qian and Zhuang Yu with malicious intentions. “Ask the two of them to smoke. You can leave after they smoke.”

One was to smoke herself, and the other was to let Ji Qian and Zhuang Yu smoke. Between her safety and the safety of others, those men wondered what choice Shen Hanxing would make.

“Despicable!” Ji Qian cursed, “don’t try to alienate us!” Ji Qian believed her sister-in-law would never give up on them! However, Ji Qian couldn’t help but hesitate seeing so many people around her. Maybe it was just a cigarette, and she would be fine even if she smoked it. Perhaps she was overthinking. That matter had nothing to do with her sister-in-law. If she hadn’t been so stupid as to drag her sister-in-law into it, her sister-in-law would still be sleeping safely at home.

Although Ji Qian didn’t know who those guys were, she could tell from their fierce expressions that they were not simple. Ji Qian bit her lip and said, “Sister-in-law, why don’t you agree to their request? I can smoke it. It’s just a cigarette. It’s nothing.” She pretended to be strong, but her eyes showed fear, and her hands and feet were cold. Ji Qian was still a little afraid. As the daughter of the Ji family, Ji Qian lived a wealthy socialite life. She had never faced something so dangerous. However, Ji Qian could not put her sister-in-law in danger. No matter what decision her sister-in-law made, she could understand.
