Chapter 825: Chapter 498: Aunt Steps Up for Huo Ran, Harassed? (Part 3)
Wearing work clothes, ladyâs suit pants, white shirt, competent and elegant, exuding a free-spirited heroic aura.
Clearly a delicate beauty like pear blossoms reflecting in spring water, yet the strength in her eyes is hard to ignore.
"Sister-in-law." Huo Ran looked at the person beside him, feeling even more ashamed.
"What, you brought reinforcements?" The young master with the surname You, clearly drunk, didnât recognize Shen Shuci, and jokingly said, "The chick is quite pretty."
The chick?
The people around were once again shocked. This was someone acknowledged by Master Huo, calling her a "chick"?
"Say that again?" Huo Ran couldnât believe this person dared to be so insolent. His tone was clearly provoking Shen Shuci.
Especially his eyes, openly assessing her, making no attempt to hide his interest.
Perhaps never having encountered someone like Shen Shuci before, it instead piqued his curiosity.
One look and you could tell she was strong-willed. Conquering such a woman would greatly satisfy a manâs vanity, and this person was no exception.
The other people in the private room were stunned; this was heading for big trouble...
When he was about to speak again, Shen Shuci had already stopped him, then looked at the man still sitting and drinking, "What will it take for us to leave?"
Shen Shuci wasnât actually afraid of them; she just didnât want to cause trouble. Today, Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang were hosting, everyone was having a good time, and this was Jiang Chengsiâs turf. Arguing with a drunk was really unnecessary.
"Ohâyou want to take him away?" Shen Shuciâs attempt to keep the peace made the Young Master You think that even if she was capable, she was afraid of him.
"Yes."
"Iâll let you leave... if you drink this cup of mine..." He said, placing his used cup on the table, shaking his wrist, mixing seven or eight types of alcohol into the glass until it was full, then said, "Finish this drink and Iâll let you go."
The cup wasnât small. With seven or eight kinds of liquid mixed, and it was the glass he used, it was obviously meant to trouble Shen Shuci.
Besides, he had been untrustworthy before. Even if Shen Shuci drank this cup, he probably wouldnât let them leave easily.
"Sister-in-law, letâs not bother with them." Huo Ran didnât want to drag Shen Shuci into this.
"Just one drink, finish it and Iâll let you leave..."
He said, picking up the glass and swaggering towards the two, while everyone in the room who knew Shen Shuci held their breath, dared not to act rashly.
When he reached Shen Shuci, he handed the drink to her, "Iâm quite fond of delicate flowers, hicâjust one drink, how about it? Drink it and Iâll let you leave."
Shen Shuci only wanted to resolve the problem peacefully, but wouldnât lower herself to be belittled.
"Heyâwhy not come with me, I guarantee on the bed Iâll..."
The ensuing obscene words made everyone get goosebumps.
He really drank too much...
"You piece of trash talking garbage, are you going to say one more word?" Huo Ran immediately got angry and was about to hit him, but Shen Shuci stopped him, "Sister-in-law? Did you hear what he said..."
"I heard it." Shen Shuciâs expression was indifferent, almost showing no emotion, then she turned to the man, "Just one drink?"
"Yes, just one..."
Shen Shuci surprisingly reached out and took the drink, but the man deliberately brushed his finger against the back of her hand, quick enough that even Huo Ran didnât notice.
A blatant act of teasing and provocation.
"Sister-in-law, this kind of person is untrustworthy, donât listen to him, I donât believe they can do anything to us..."
Before Huo Ran finished his sentence, the whole situation suddenly took a sharp turn, leaving him dumbfounded.

On the other side, the server didnât dare go find Jiang Chengsi themselves, instead first going to notify the manager, delaying some time.
In the private room, Tang Wan noticed Huo Ran had been gone for a long time, and even Shen Shuci hadnât returned for a while, she frowned slightly, going to the restroom should have meant they would be back by now.
"Whatâs wrong?" Jiang Jinsangâs attention was focused on Tang Wan. He immediately noticed her slight change, "If youâre not feeling well, letâs go back early."
"No, itâs just that Little Aunt has been gone for a while, she doesnât come here often, could she have gotten lost?"
Huo Qinqi apparently also noticed Shen Shuci had been gone too long and was planning to go look for her.
"I was just about to go get some sobering tea for you all, and look for Little Aunt. Jiang Jinsang was ahead of him, "You should all drink a little less..."
At Jiang Chengsiâs club, everyone came often, apparently not expecting anything could go wrong on their own turf. When Huo Qinqi was about to follow, Jiang Chengsi beside him stopped him, "Donât leave, we havenât finished our drinks yet."
"This is my place, could anything possibly go wrong, youâre way too clingy with Little Aunt."
...
Everyone laughed, probably not imagining anything could happen.
Jiang Jinsang had just stepped out when he saw the manager rushing over, seemingly wanting to enter the private room, "Fifth Master."
"Whatâs the matter? So urgent?"
The manager also realized there must have been a fight over there, as long as he saw someone who could take charge like this, "Itâs Huo Ran and Miss Shen, something happened."
"Where?"
"Just in the private room on the other side."
"Take me to see."
"I need to inform Fourth Master."
"Heâs drunk, Iâll handle it."
The manager considered it, having Jiang Jinsang handle it could work.
On the way to the private room, Jiang Jinsang naturally asked about the circumstances. The manager didnât know much, only that there was a fight.
"...A fight?" Jiang Jinsang raised his eyebrows, "Who is the other party?"
"Just..." The manager pointed to the position to the east, Jiang Jinsang squinted his eyes, "...not from that family, but this young master is surnamed You."
Knowing the surname, Jiang Jinsang could roughly guess his identity.
Another one bullying with power, acting arrogant.
"Fifth Master, Iâve already called security, and the doctor, theyâll be here soon, thereâs quite a few of them, could anything happen, should I go notify Fourth Master, Master Huo as well..."
He would occasionally deal with drunken troubles, but didnât expect it to escalate this much this time.
If anything happened to Huo Ran or Shen Shuci, he would have no way to explain it to Jiang Chengsi.
Jiang Jinsang didnât speak, hastily heading towards the private roomâ
