Wei Yumeng seized the opportunity and turned to leave.
But Deng Yi's voice came from behind, "Miss Wei, you must be well aware of the consequences if you walk out of here now."
Though the voice was laced with a smile, it sent a shiver down her spine.
On the other side, President Wang immediately said, "Xiao Deng, don't talk like that. What if you scare her?"
Deng Yi smiled and said, "Listen to President Wang. After all, we'll be relying on everyone for future matters."
Wei Yumeng finally understood completely. This Deng Yi seemed to have some sort of deal with the others present.
And Deng Yi was using her as a bargaining chip, offering her to other men.
Wei Yumeng clenched her fists. She hadn't expected Deng Yi to go this far. He was indeed the kind of person Zhan Mohan always disdained.
But even knowing this, what could she do now?
If she wanted to save Zhan Mohan, she had no choice but to comply.
Wei Yumeng gritted her teeth and walked towards those men.
Initially, they were somewhat polite, but soon, they revealed their true colors.
President Tan had even placed his hand on Wei Yumeng's thigh.
On the other side, President Li leaned in, intending to touch her.
Wei Yumeng suddenly stood up, "Please, gentlemen, be mindful."
Deng Yi shot her a glare, reminding her what she was supposed to do.
Wei Yumeng clenched her fists and sat down again.
The others crowded around her again, and Wei Yumeng felt disgusted by their proximity.
But for Zhan Mohan's sake, she could only endure it. When would it end?
This humiliation might become a stain on her for life.
Just as Wei Yumeng could no longer bear it, the private room door was suddenly pushed open.
Wei Yumeng took the chance to distance herself from those men, suppressing her tears and finding a moment's respite.
"Who are you to barge in at a time like this?" President Li's tone was clearly displeased by the interruption.
However, the person who entered remained polite, "My apologies, everyone. This place has been booked by my master for the entire day. We kindly ask you to leave now."
Deng Yi also stood up, "Your master? We booked this place days ago. Are you deliberately looking for trouble?"
"I apologize, but please leave."
Wei Yumeng looked at the newcomer, feeling he bore some resemblance to Fang Xun.
President Wang snorted, clearly unwilling to back down. "You keep mentioning your master. Perhaps you don't know our standing in Pengcheng? With a snap of my fingers, I could buy this club."
However, the other party remained unfazed by President Wang's words, like an NPC in a game, politely saying, "I apologize, but please leave."
This finally ignited the anger of the group, as no one in Pengcheng dared to disrespect them.
Being kicked out of a club like this was unheard of.
"You really don't understand human language. I'll find someone right now to show you, and your master, who is truly in charge in Pengcheng."
President Li said this and took out his phone, intending to call for backup.
But before he could react, a woman who had just rushed in snatched his phone and smashed it on the floor.
Shen Xiangxue, hailing from the black market, was accustomed to dealing with such scoundrels.
"I thought there wouldn't be such people here, but it seems there's no bottom, only lower."
Shen Xiangxue walked towards Wei Yumeng.
Wei Yumeng looked at Shen Xiangxue with disbelief. Why was Shen Xiangxue here?
Could it be that the "master" mentioned earlier was Shen Xiangxue?
Indeed, the person who had come to inform them to leave had already retreated to the side.
"Yumeng, are you alright? Did those guys do anything to you?"
Deng Yi couldn't bear to see his plan, which was almost successful, suddenly disrupted.
He took a step forward, a fierce expression on his face, and asked, "Who are you?"
Shen Xiangxue was startled by Deng Yi's tone. Wei Yumeng quickly shielded her. "Deng Yi, she's only here for me. I'll make her leave. Don't hurt her."
But as soon as Wei Yumeng finished speaking, Shen Xiangxue also regained her composure.
"Who am I? I am the righteous person sent to deal with you today. You men, getting handsy with a woman, truly shameless."
Hearing this, Wei Yumeng became even more worried. Although she didn't know the identities of the people Deng Yi had brought, she could tell from their earlier conversation that they had some influence in Pengcheng. How could Shen Xiangxue possibly be their match?
"Stop talking," Wei Yumeng immediately interjected.
But Shen Xiangxue refused to back down. "What are you afraid of? In a place like the black market, no one dares to mess with me."
Wei Yumeng could only bury her face in her hands, feeling that while Shen Xiangxue was courageous, she had no idea of the situation they were in.
"Now, all of you get out!" Shen Xiangxue said, pointing towards the door.
But Deng Yi walked towards her step by step. "Judging by your tone, you seem to be some young lady. That's good. I think others would fancy that kind of taste too."
As expected, the others' faces showed wicked smiles, likely believing Shen Xiangxue had come to them willingly.
Wei Yumeng had no choice but to shield Shen Xiangxue. No matter what, Shen Xiangxue had come to help her. Even if the outcome wasn't ideal, she had to protect Shen Xiangxue's safety.
But at this moment, the person who had been standing by the door spoke again.
"Oh dear, oh dear, this is getting more and more troublesome." He sounded somewhat helpless, yet his tone was full of danger.
Shen Xiangxue looked at him with dissatisfaction. "What are you waiting for? Throw these people out!"
"Yes, Miss Shen."
Before Wei Yumeng could even process what was happening, Deng Yi and the others were already on the ground, only able to groan in pain.
"You... you just wait!" President Li threatened, unwilling to give up.
But no one paid him any attention. Soon, the club's security guards carried them out one by one. Wei Yumeng was bewildered. "What is going on?"
"I originally came here with... uh... him," Shen Xiangxue pointed to the person at the door.
"Then at the entrance, I met that person named Fang Xun. He said he was worried about you and asked me to help, so I came."
Hearing this, Wei Yumeng felt something was amiss. The subtle pause in Shen Xiangxue's words was strange, and why would Fang Xun ask a woman to help her?
"So, he's with you?" Wei Yumeng continued to ask.
Shen Xiangxue shrugged. "Yes, we're together. He's my... my assistant, named Du Sheng."
Wei Yumeng's eyes were full of suspicion, yet she couldn't pinpoint what exactly felt wrong.
