"h.e.l.lo, this is Dudu. What can I do for you?"
"Hi! I need a valet driver."
"Okay. Where are you now?"
"Tianshui Bar."
"Okay. We'll send the driver over right away. He will take about 20 minutes to arrive. Please wait for a moment."
"Ok."
…
Tianshui Bar.
It was late at night. There were people in the street in groups of twos and threes, some coming to buy drinks and some returning home. When living in the city, occasionally indulging yourself was indeed intoxicating.
However, although he loved drinking, Liu Yanbo didn't come to enjoy himself. This street's bar wasn't too expensive, but at least for him, it exceeded what he could afford.
"Zhou Bapi really is Zhou Bapi! I should be off work already, he doesn't let us rest!" Liu Yanbo complained. He reached out for his mobile phone and dialed a number:
"h.e.l.lo? Good evening, I'm a Dudu's driver. I'm already at Tianshui Bar's entrance, where are you?"
"I'll be right out, please wait for me at the door." The voice from the microphone was soft and pleasant.
"Okay." He didn't hang up the phone. Liu Yanbo leaned on a lamp post and lit a cigarette. Before he finished smoking, he heard the phone asking:
"Where are you? I've arrived at the door."
Liu Yanbo looked up, and at the entrance of the bar stood a beautiful woman around the age of 28, looking around with a mobile phone.
"I'm here."
Liu Yanbo waved his hand, extinguished the remaining half of the cigarette, and walked towards the woman with a smile.
Seeing Liu Yanbo walking towards her with a smile, the woman didn't reply immediately, but froze, and looked around.
Regarding the woman's reaction, Liu Yanbo was not surprised. After all, he wasn't wearing work clothes. He went up the steps in front of the bar and took out a number plate from his pocket. Smiling, he said: "On behalf of the driver company Dudu, Liu Yanbo, job number 036."
After looking at the number plate, the woman breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Sorry for troubling you."
Liu Yanbo put away the number plate and asked with a smile: "Should we get going now?"
"Yes, let's go."
"Ah…"
The light at the bar entrance was a little dim, the woman took another sip of alcohol, and as soon as she stepped down, she exclaimed and fell: at least ten centimeters of high heels split off.
Falling down the stairs, consisting of about five steps, the woman didn't have time to think, only instinctively closing her eyes.
After about ten seconds, because she didn't hear the crisp sound of her hitting the floor, the woman carefully opened her eyes. What she saw wasn't as red as flowers[1], but instead, a man's face. [1]
Liu Yanbo had his hands on the woman's shoulders and was looking at her.
Her skin was tender and her clean and flawless face was slightly flushed. Her beautiful willow leaf eyebrows were tightened. There was panic in her eyes, and her mouth was slightly opened.
So beautiful! This
Being watched by a man like this, the woman seemed uncomfortable, she blushed, and softly said, "Can you help me up first?"
"Okay."
Liu Yanbo helped her stand and then looked at her feet: "Are your feets okay? Can you walk?"
"I don't know, I'll try."
"Ah…"
The woman shouted as soon as her feet hit the ground. Embarra.s.sed, her face paled in an instant, and there was even sweat on her forehead.
Liu Yanbo took a closer look. The woman's ankle was red and swollen, but it seemed the injury wasn't serious. "Will you give me your car keys, and I'll drive it over?"
"Okay!"
"Yo! Beautiful, where are you going? You won't even say h.e.l.lo? We can send you home! Right, brothers?"
"Yeah! Let us send you! We will definitely take good care of you."
"Haha…"
Just as the woman opened her bag and took out her keys, four young men dressed in fancy clothes came out of the bar, surrounding the woman and Liu Yanbo.
Seeing the four men surrounding her, the woman frowned coldly, "Go away! I don't know you."
"Tsc, tsc, beautiful girl, it's too ruthless for you to say that, isn't it? I drank a few drinks with you, and you turn me away when I come out? You really hurt this bro's heart!" Said a blonde. He put his hands on the woman's shoulder after speaking.
She shook off the blonde's hand and glanced at Liu Yanbo, who was silent. She felt a flash of anger and her eyebrows tightened, thinking that he wasn't too much if a man. There was a perfect opportunity for him to pose as a hero saving a beauty. The woman got angry so she leaned on Liu Yanbo and smiled back at the blond man. "It's not that I can't, but first you'll have to ask my husband if he agrees or not."
She looked at him with a beautiful smile.
The blonde was hooked by this smile, and it took awhile for him to return to his mind. Looking at Liu Yanbo, who was shorter than him, he arrogantly said: "These brothers want to send your wife home, you got a problem with that?"
Liu Yanbo pushed the head leaning on his shoulder back up and lightly said, "I'm not her husband."
When Liu Yanbo said this, he not only stunned the four young men but also the woman.
This man is so irritating!
Of course, the woman was trembling with anger and could not speak of Liu Yanbo's performance.
The four young men were happy, the blonde looked at the woman and said,
"Beauty, there's no problem, just come with your brother!"
"Haha…" The other three young men laughed, one of them loudly whistled.
Liu Yanbo didn't care about the woman's glare and ignored the four young men's ridicule. He said to the woman, "Lady, if you really don't know them, let's call the police!"
The woman's eyes looked like they were about to spit flames. If eyes could kill, the first person to die here would be Liu Yanbo. Fortunately, eyes couldn't kill, so she bitterly answered: "I don't know them! Also, don't call me lady!"
Liu Yanbo nodded and earnestly said: "If that's the case, then I'll call the police."
Even when Liu Yanbo said that he was about to call the police, the four young men looked at him cheerfully. When they saw Liu Yanbo taking out his mobile phone to call the police, they got angry. The blonde reached out and tried to grab the mobile phone, roaring: "Who the h.e.l.l are you? Do you have a death wish?"
Liu Yanbo avoided the blonde's hand and kept dodging as he attempted to take his phone. His tone remained calm: "I'm this beauty's driver."
Looking at Liu Yanbo who was pressing the numbers, the four young men were furious, just like a lion in heat. Just, these lions were a bit thin and looked funny.
"F***! The driver wants to play the hero saving a beauty, brothers, chop him to death!"
"Oh …"
As soon as the blonde finished speaking, Liu Yanbo kicked a young man's heels, making him fall on his knees. The other men charged at him. Liu Yanbo's movements didn't stop, he knocked down another man with his elbow and then, with his fist, hit another's face. These actions were completed in a blink of an eye.
Looking at Liu Yanbo's fierceness, the last young man took a few steps back, pointing at Liu Yanbo, stuttering, "You, don't come here, I will strangle you if you come over." He fiddled with a knife in his pants pocket.
Looking at that weak man holding the knife, Liu Yanbo smiled, tilted his head and gently grabbed the woman's hand. "Beauty, can we go now? I still have to go home for supper!"
The woman looked at the ordinary-looking man in surprise and nodded.
Liu Yanbo helped the woman down the steps, pa.s.sing by the blonde lying on the ground sorrowfully. He suddenly let go of the woman's hand, lowered and pulled up the blonde's collar, leaning down to the blonde's ear, he softly said, "You're very lucky. Fortunately, she is not my wife, otherwise, you wouldn't live past tonight. I just want to tell you this. If you keep trying to bully people, you won't live long."
The blonde covered his b.l.o.o.d.y face, desperately nodding. He didn't know whether he understood Liu Yanbo's words because the pain was unbearable.
Liu Yanbo let go and stopped paying attention to him.
Maybe someday the blonde will become a good person, or he will stubbornly continue living with hatred, but so what?
Yes! So what?
Liu Yanbo smiled and helped the woman, slowly leaving.
