After hearing Kexin’s words, Xia Ye’s anger overwhelmed her reason. “What am

I afraid of?! Let’s go! Let’s get in!”

Following her declaration, Xia Ye strode confidently toward the entrance of the dance hall, with Kexin following closely behind.

Kexin smiled and glanced to the right before entering the dance hall along with Xia Ye.

Inside, the dim lighting forced people to move forward, and the only source of dazzle came from the colorful lights on the stage.

The unfamiliar atmosphere made Xia Ye’s steps somewhat unsteady.

Just a few paces in, she tripped over an object and stumbled forward.

Quickly, a hand reached out to grasp Xia Ye’s arm, preventing her from falling.

She was about to turn her head to thank the person when she was startled by the appearance of a shining face right in front of her.

“Ah!” Startled, Xia Ye instinctively shook off the hand and retreated to avoid the unexpected face.

However, the individual who had grabbed her arm was quick to prevent her from falling and hurting herself.

Steadying herself, Xia Ye looked at the person who had helped her, who seemed displeased. “I saved you, and you still have this attitude. How ungrateful!”

Yet, Kexin appeared to know this person and offered a friendly explanation. “Brother Zhao, don’t be upset.

“It’s her first time here, and she was just startled.”

“Humph!” Brother Zhao clearly wasn’t satisfied with Kexin’s response.

He directed his dissatisfaction toward Xia Ye, saying, “You’re too timid. Maybe you shouldn’t come out to socialize in the future!”

After Brother Zhao’s statement, he sat down on a nearby sofa and took out a cigarette.

Kexin gave Xia Ye a meaningful look, hinting that she should apologize to Brother Zhao.

Xia Ye, however, showed no interest in doing so.

He looked disheveled and overweight, and the mere sight of him made her cringe.

Kexin’s expression soured as she witnessed Xia Ye’s refusal.

She leaned in and whispered to Xia Ye, “Brother Zhao is a big deal in this place. You can’t afford to offend him, no matter who you are!”

Xia Ye remained unfazed. She had little regard for who he was. In her mind, it didn’t matter how important he might be; she had no intention of associating with people who disgusted her.

Seeing Xia Ye’s resistance, Kexin expressed her frustration. “I brought you here to show you a good time. Don’t cause trouble for me!”

Xia Ye noticed Kexin’s change in attitude and responded, “I didn’t ask you to bring me here. Besides, I don’t want to stay here.”

With those words, she turned around and started to leave. She had no desire to spend another moment in this dismal place.

Brother Zhao, however, wasn’t willing to let her depart without confrontation. Annoyed, he kicked a low table in front of him and demanded, “Leaving so soon? What’s your problem?”

Brother Zhao’s outburst attracted several young men in colorful shirts who gathered around him. Despite Kexin’s attempt to mediate, he remained upset. “Brother Zhao, don’t be angry. My friend isn’t familiar with the place. I’ll make her apologize.”

While she spoke, Kexin felt exasperated. She regretted bringing Xia Ye along and feared that this could lead to trouble.

Xia Ye, on the other hand, stood her ground. “Why should I apologize? Who does he think he is? Let me tell you, our Xia family is not to be trifled with!”

Upon hearing this, she almost rolled her eyes. What was there to be proud of in a poor countryside family that had resorted to selling their own daughter for a better life? If it weren’t for Xia Ru, her family would still be in the countryside.

However, when Kexin heard Xia Ye’s words, her face darkened. She whispered to Xia Ye, “Brother Zhao is a big deal here. No matter what, you can’t offend him!”

Xia Ye didn’t seem to care. To her, the identity of the person in question was irrelevant, and she had no intention of compromising her dignity.

When Brother Zhao overheard Xia Ye’s defiance, he got up and stumbled over to her. “Oh? The Xia family? Do we even have a Xia family anymore?” His taunting words elicited laughter from those around him.

But Xia Ye was in no mood to engage further. She firmly stated, “Don’t come any closer. If you do, I won’t be polite! Let me tell you, the Xia family won’t be underestimated!” Her voice echoed throughout the dance hall, attracting the attention of other patrons..
