Park the car, turn off the engine!

Ye Xiao and Jiang Miaoke got out of the car.

Ye Xiao looked up to see a sign that was not very large, which read "Black Mood Bar."

"Let's go, stop staring," Jiang Miaoke said to Ye Xiao, and then she took the lead and entered the Black Mood Bar. When Jiang Miaoke entered, the doorman immediately greeted her with a smile, "Hello, Miss Jiang."

"Are they all here?" Jiang Miaoke looked at the fair-faced doorman.

"They are, and, Young Master Feng was just asking why you haven't arrived yet," the doorman replied with a smile.

Upon hearing the doorman's words, Jiang Miaoke frowned and asked, "Feng Hai is here too?"

"Yes, Young Master Feng has been here for a while, and after he arrived, he kept asking if Miss Jiang had arrived," the doorman answered truthfully.

Just then, Ye Xiao walked into the Black Mood Bar.

Seeing Ye Xiao, the doorman, obviously not recognizing him, immediately asked, "Sir, do you have a membership card?"

"VIP card?" Ye Xiao, puzzled by the doorman's question, looked at Jiang Miaoke.

"Yes, the VIP card. Black Mood is not a place for just anyone; only those with status and standing can come here," an unpleasantly harsh voice came over. Ye Xiao looked in the direction of the voice, and saw that suddenly a group of people had come out from inside the Black Mood Bar—handsome men and beautiful women, all dressed in top-brand clothes, truly high-end and classy.

"Wu Pinliang, are you asking for trouble?" Jiang Miaoke glared at the man who had just spoken, her face full of anger, and said, "Are you implying that I shouldn't come to the Black Mood anymore?"

The young man named Wu Pinliang chuckled and, with one arm around a beautiful woman's slender waist, said with a smile to Jiang Miaoke, "I mean, if anyone were to be barred, surely Coco couldn't be barred, right? You agree, don't you, Coco? I wasn't referring to you."

"Talking about my boyfriend or about me, what's the difference? Wu Pinliang, I'm taking note of today's grievance," Jiang Miaoke's expression remained sour and clearly, if Wu Pinliang didn't give a satisfying explanation for his behavior towards Ye Xiao today, things wouldn't settle down.

However, when Jiang Miaoke declared that Ye Xiao was now her boyfriend, everyone present was taken aback. Almost everyone knew that Jiang Miaoke was Feng Hai's future wife, although she had always denied it, but Feng Hai always considered her interests, and when she wasn't around, he claimed himself as her fiance.

"Coco, you're joking, aren't you? You're not really..." At this point, a beautiful young woman around Jiang Miaoke's age looked at her.

Jiang Miaoke then took Ye Xiao's arm.

Instantly, Ye Xiao felt that a third of the men in the group were glaring at him murderously, as if he had crossed a line.

Ye Xiao really wanted to pull away from Jiang Miaoke's arm at that moment, but she was clinging tightly to him. And, as if that wasn't enough, he distinctly felt two round things pressing against his arm, which made him think some inappropriate thoughts.

Although Jiang Miaoke's chest wasn't very large, even if it was a bit smaller, it was still noticeable when pressed against.

"Coco, there should be limits to joking." At this time, a young man with a scholarly appearance, dressed in a deep blue suit and wearing silver-framed glasses, suddenly looked seriously at Jiang Miaoke.

Jiang Miaoke glanced at the young man and felt secretly thrilled; her bringing Ye Xiao today was to show everyone that she was not Feng Hai's girlfriend, much less his fiancee.

Jiang Miaoke looked at this man, chuckled, and said, "What makes you think I'm joking? I'm already in my twenties; don't I have the right to date someone? I think Ye Xiao is quite good, I've decided to try dating him, and if it feels right, we'll definitely get married."

At this moment, the earlier girl quickly came over to Jiang Miaoke, pulling her aside, glanced at Ye Xiao, and said, "You didn't just randomly pick someone, did you? Moreover, you should know that to enter the Black Mood, one must excel in some aspect. If his strength happens to be something that others here possess, then there will need to be a challenge. If he matches up, he can join; if not, he must leave immediately. Look at Feng Hai's face, dark as the bottom of a pot; do you think your Ye Xiao can handle it?"

The person who had been stern-faced was none other than Feng Hai, who held significant sway in the Black Mood. Here, few dared to provoke him—as a business genius who had taken over his family business at a young age, although he wasn't skilled in Martial Arts, several people here were, all loyal to Feng Hai. More importantly, Feng Hai alone held a two-fifths stake in the Black Mood.

Jiang Miaoke scoffed and looked at the girl, saying, "Why should I give Feng Hai face? Qi Xin, stay out of this. If my friends can't come in, then I won't either."

"Ah?" The girl named Qi Xin heard Jiang Miaoke's words, glanced again at Ye Xiao, who had become the target of public humiliation, and reaffirmed, asking, "Coco, is he really your boyfriend?"

"Why? Do I need to kiss him for you to believe it?" Jiang Miaoke asked seriously.

"Don't you dare. If you kiss Ye Xiao in public, Feng Hai will surely kill him today," Qi Xin said.

"He wouldn't dare!" Jiang Miaoke said with a look of pride.

However, just then, she saw Feng Hai approach Ye Xiao and immediately walked over, confronting Feng Hai, "Feng Hai, what are you trying to do?"

At this moment, Feng Hai, whose anger had subsided, wore a cold smile. Seeing Jiang Miaoke so anxious for Ye Xiao made him even more angry, though he only showed pleasure on his face, saying, "Why so worried? I'm not going to eat him alive. Can't your so-called boyfriend handle this atmosphere? Is he going to be scared into submission by my presence?"

As soon as Feng Hai spoke, the young noblemen beside him burst into laughter, especially Wu Pinliang, who looked at Feng Hai and said, "Young Master Feng, I think he really is frightened by you. Look, he can't even speak a word."

"You..." Jiang Miaoke, hearing their mocking words, felt utterly humiliated and simultaneously displeased, especially since Ye Xiao remained indifferent.

Ye Xiao still did not speak, his face remaining expressionless, as if merely listening.

Wu Pinliang instantly laughed and told Jiang Miaoke, "Coco, don't be angry. Look at your friend; he probably can't keep up with us. Better let him find a low-grade bar to hang out in. Perhaps, he can even find a lover there. You know, there are many courtesans in those low-grade bars."

"Wu Pinliang!" Jiang Miaoke, seeing that Ye Xiao still did not respond, was burning with anger. She had never been so humiliated or taken such a loss before.

Thus, Jiang Miaoke swung her fist and directly punched at Wu Pinliang, who quickly tried to dodge. Although he dared to talk back to Jiang Miaoke because he was Feng Hai's man, he did not dare to actually fight her.

But, just as everyone assumed a major fight was about to break out,

suddenly, someone grabbed Jiang Miaoke's wrist. It was not Wu Pinliang's boss, Feng Hai, but Ye Xiao.

Seeing Ye Xiao suddenly grabbing her wrist, apparently to stop her from hitting Wu Pinliang, Jiang Miaoke felt even angrier. She was ready to teach Wu Pinliang a lesson, and yet Ye Xiao held her back.

"Ye Xiao, are you even a man?" Jiang Miaoke coldly asked.

But Ye Xiao was not annoyed. Instead, he showed a faint smile and told Jiang Miaoke, "Coco, why get so easily provoked? Didn't you notice that I was just watching their performance? Besides, not every issue needs justice. Like if your neighbor's dog bites you, would you bite back?"

Ye Xiao's words were slow and gentle, and hearing them was incredibly satisfying for Jiang Miaoke. So, Ye Xiao had stayed silent all this time just to strike back like this.

"Ha-ha, you're right. I was indeed too impulsive. Everyone says a dog bites a man, but you can't learn from the dog and bite back, ha-ha..." Jiang Miaoke's anger vanished immediately, and she felt relieved.

But as Jiang Miaoke felt relieved, others, like Wu Pinliang and Feng Hai, were bound to feel upset.

At that moment, all the noblemen present were shocked. Although they were all aristocrats, few dared to directly insult Feng Hai or Wu Pinliang by calling them dogs.

But Ye Xiao had just done that, calmly saying they were dogs, and biting dogs at that.

Feng Hai's expression instantly turned icy cold. He had never expected Ye Xiao to insult him like this. Though he had humiliated Ye Xiao, he believed it was his right to humiliate others.

"You're seeking death!"

After Feng Hai said this, Wu Pinliang, as if he had received a command to charge, suddenly threw a punch at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao reacted swiftly. Although Wu Pinliang was fast, Ye Xiao was faster. He moved his feet and easily dodged Wu Pinliang's attack, retreating two steps to the side.
