NOVPUBChapter 733: Chapter 512 Zhou Ruyi鈥檚 Bestie_2 Chapter 733 -512 Zhou Ruyi鈥檚 Bestie_2 Naturally, Chu Mo鈥檚 safety was the responsibility of Fang Lihu and Lei Ting.
Even though Lei Ting had sworn complete fealty, Chu Mo still could not trust him one hundred percent. 𝚗ovp𝚞b.𝚌om
After all, they had had little interaction before, and trust needed to be cultivated.
If Lei Ting wanted to earn Chu Mo鈥檚 complete trust, he would have to prove himself personally.
Six luxury cars, each worth tens of millions, slowly drove out of the Emperor Xuan Villas.
It was nearly ten o鈥檆lock in the evening and, having missed the rush hour, the roads were much clearer.
Twenty minutes later, the motorcade slowly stopped.
...
As the sound of car doors opening continuously reached their ears, more than a dozen tall bodyguards swiftly secured the area within a ten-meter radius.
Fang Lihu walked around to open the car door for Chu Mo.
Although this kind of task was usually done by the person sitting in the passenger seat, Lei Ting, after all, was currently sitting there.
Lei Ting, the only new Great Grandmaster of martial arts in Hua Country in the last twenty years and also one of the remaining six Great Grandmasters in the country, held an extraordinary status in the hearts of all martial practitioners.
Although he had agreed to protect Chu Mo鈥檚 safety, he could not really be asked to do menial tasks like serving tea or carrying water.
Respect for a Great Grandmaster of martial arts had to be maintained.
Chu Mo stepped out of the back of the Rolls-Royce, and as he raised his head, he noticed the prominently displayed word 鈥淏ar鈥 above the door.
潡堭潣凁潡答潣?co
Unlike ordinary bars, there were no sharp-eyed greeters at the entrance to this quiet lounge.
Chu Mo looked around casually and found the place unfamiliar although he had been living in Zhongdu for eight years, he had never set foot here.
Chu Mo turned to look at the dozen or so bodyguards next to him.
He hesitated for a moment, then set his gaze on Lei Ting and said calmly,
鈥淭he rest stay here.
Lei Ting, follow me.鈥
Fang Lihu at his side slightly widened his eyes.
He originally wanted to say something but ended up keeping silent.
The dozen or so personal bodyguards, including the deputy team leader Fang Lihu, all stayed at the entrance while Chu Mo entered the seemingly ordinary lounge with Lei Ting.
Upon entering, there was none of that irritating, ear-splitting music; instead, the unique cola glasses at the entrance set a distinctive mood.
Passing through the corridor, the space opened up 鈥 the lounge was not very large, yet its design had a sense of layering, creating a spacious but not empty feeling, giving guests a relaxed sensation at first glance.
Looking around, dim lights cast shadows over the patrons filling the booths, and beside the long bar, a long-haired, handsome bartender was deftly mixing drinks for the customers.
The young bartender鈥檚 actions were cool; he caught the highball glasses he tossed into the air with steady hands and then mixed various colorful liquids together.
The resulting concoctions, with names unknown, promptly elicited excited cheers from several young women.
Chu Mo paused slightly in his step, a classic English song floating to his ears, a tune from long ago that he remembered his English teacher playing during class back in high school!
The familiar melody drove away the last bit of irritation in his heart.
This place proved to be a tranquil haven; even sitting alone in a corner for an entire day wouldn鈥檛 feel boring.
Chu Mo鈥檚 gaze swept across the hall and soon he noticed something odd.
Nearly all of the customers, either intentionally or not, were glancing toward a booth in the corner.
Even, Chu Mo noticed, a table of guests in the middle booth had three men who were almost unblinkingly staring at that corner spot.
Without exception, all three men had eyes filled with intense admiration,
Following the gaze of the majority, Chu Mo quickly found his target.
The young lady from the Zhou family, one of the four great families of Zhongdu, known for her unsurpassed beauty, Zhou Ruyi鈥檚 graceful silhouette was right before his eyes.
Next to Zhou Ruyi were a few women of equally astonishing beauty and a couple of men with extraordinary demeanor.
Having identified his target, Chu Mo straightened his collar slightly and then proceeded to walk towards the corner booth.
However, as he was passing the central booth, one of the entranced men with long hair falling to the tip of his nose suddenly spoke up:
鈥淗ey, brother, you must be new here, right?
The 鈥楻ose Fairy鈥 is not someone you should mess with.
Take my advice if you don鈥檛 want to be thrown out, it鈥檚 better not to mess with those roses.
Roses may be beautiful, but they have thorns, be careful not to prick yourself!鈥
Hearing this, Chu Mo slightly paused his steps.
He turned his head with a hint of surprise and looked at the three youngsters beside him.
After a faint smile tugged at his lips, he spoke in a calm voice:
鈥淲hat, can鈥檛 even say hello?鈥
The long-haired young man who had spoken earlier flicked his hair with panache and said with full-faced pride:
鈥淵ou look like you鈥檝e never been to our bar before.
Those ladies over there are regulars, and all of us old patrons know it.
Some newbies who don鈥檛 open their eyes and go up to chat them up end up getting turned away with their tails between their legs.
And those who don鈥檛 get the hint and insist on approaching might just get beaten up so bad they can鈥檛 recognize their own parents.
I鈥檓 just giving you a friendly heads up because there鈥檚 a black belt expert among those roses!鈥
Upon hearing this, Chu Mo nodded slightly.
Only then did he realize that Zhou Ruyi was actually a regular at this bar, and considering the reactions of the people here, it seemed she and her companions had undoubtedly made quite an impression, or else there wouldn鈥檛 be such an effect.
Of course, Chu Mo wasn鈥檛 bothered by these details.
He nodded at the long-haired young man and then said with a smile:
鈥淭hanks, brother!鈥
With that, Chu Mo stopped paying attention to the three youngsters and casually strolled towards a corner.
Three women and two men were seated in the corner.
Zhou Ru Yu鈥檚 back was towards him, so she didn鈥檛 notice his arrival, while the person facing him was a beautiful girl with her hair tied in a ponytail.
The single-ponytail girl in a black leather jacket noticed Chu Mo heading straight for the corner and couldn鈥檛 help but lift her head slightly, giving Chu Mo a warning look.
The ponytail girl鈥檚 eyes were like water, but at this moment she narrowed her eyes slightly, a cold light flickering within.
Ordinary people might take such an expression as a cue to leave, but Chu Mo wasn鈥檛 about to be frightened off by a single look from a young woman.
He walked straight over to the booth in the corner.
After a moment, he heard the ponytail girl suddenly speak out:
鈥淗ere comes another fool who鈥檚 not afraid of death.
Should we say these guys have guts, or should we say our dear Ruyi and Wanying are just too stunningly beautiful?鈥
As the ponytail girl finished speaking, Chu Mo smiled without saying a word.
He didn鈥檛 offer any defense, but instead sat boldly next to the booth in the corner.
Lei Ting, who was following behind, didn鈥檛 speak.
As a true martial arts Great Grandmaster, only two things could attract his attention: one was martial arts, and the other was his unresolved feelings, his childhood sweetheart Liu Manli.
Lei Ting had sworn to protect Chu Mo鈥檚 safety, so he would only concern himself with Chu Mo鈥檚 well-being.
As for anything else, nothing could draw his attention, let alone take a glance at the several young women present.
The people in the booth had obviously noticed Chu Mo鈥檚 approach.
After a moment, when Zhou Ruyi turned her head and saw Chu Mo, she stood up gracefully and, with an apologetic smile, took the initiative to introduce him:
鈥淢r.
Chu, you鈥檝e finally arrived.
I thought you might not come today.
Let me introduce you; these are my very good friends.
This is Wang Ying, and the sharp-tongued one is Pei Er.
These two gentlemen are Dong Jing and Wang Kuan!鈥
After her words, she pointed at Chu Mo and continued the introduction:
鈥淭his is my friend鈥
Young Master Chu!鈥
After Zhou Ruyi鈥檚 introduction, Chu Mo was invited to sit beside the two men.
It was only now that Chu Mo realized that these individuals did not seem to recognize him, which caught him slightly off guard.
He had thought that the friends Zhou Ruyi had invited were all second or third-generation individuals from Zhongdu, and if that were the case, these people would surely know his name.
But since the individuals present didn鈥檛 react, it could only mean that they were either not from Zhongdu or were just ordinary folks.
鈥淵oung Master Chu, is it?
Ruyi and I are college friends.
It鈥檚 been so long, and this is the first time Ruyi has taken the initiative to introduce a man to us.
My name is Xu Wanying.
Cheers to you, Young Master Chu!鈥
Next to Zhou Ruyi, the gentle woman suddenly raised her glass.
She looked at Chu Mo with a face full of curiosity, her bewitching beauty tinged with a touch of intrigue.
