Chapter 561: Chapter 561: The Plot is Revealed

Some reasonable people naturally disliked the bar and immediately spoke up to help, as they really didn’t want to see the bar closed down simply because the owner hadn’t come forward in time. Speaking now was in their own interest too.

"Everyone, rest assured, we are fair and just here. Who’s right and who’s wrong, we’ll know once we check the surveillance. It’s true that our bar’s security hasn’t been up to scratch. Our security team is still in training and hasn’t been able to timely receive everyone’s reports, disrupting your prime time of enjoyment."

"Here’s what I’ll do—I’ll send a few rounds of good drinks to each table and apologize to everyone. Please return to your seats and continue to enjoy yourselves. There’s no need to continue gathering here. Once this issue is resolved, I’ll announce the outcome through the broadcast later," Shen Dong said with a stern face.

Who would be happy about such an incident? The drunkard hadn’t really intended to ruin the place; he was just venting his temper. Now that he had blurted out those words, he somewhat regretted them. It would be embarrassing if he couldn’t follow through, so he might as well pretend to calm down and share his thoughts.

"Let me tell you this, I was pushed, not falling over there because I was drunk," the drunkard declared, also to indicate that he hadn’t done anything wrong. It was the fault of those who hit him without knowing the facts.

After the brawl, those young masters realized they were wrong. How could they fight in such a place? What if they were banned from coming here again? They felt somewhat guilty and fearful, and sure enough, the next second Shen Dong spoke up.

"Fighting is strictly prohibited here. We have lots of eyes around, but our security isn’t perfect yet, which is why they couldn’t intervene today. This won’t happen again in the future. It serves as a lesson for you.

You will cover the drink tabs for the people at the surrounding tables since they were disturbed by your actions and couldn’t enjoy their drinks. Any objections? As for this gentleman, we will investigate your claim, and if it turns out you were pushed unwillingly, we will forgive your actions," Shen Dong reassured everyone, fairly and impartially.

The young masters, hearing his statement, didn’t argue further since not being kicked out and just settling some bills was better than being denied entry in the future.

Kang Yue was watching from a distance. After hearing that the surveillance footage was ready, she checked it and managed to extract the critical part. She saw someone with malicious intent actually pushing the drunkard out.

It appeared that this gentleman was telling the truth, being pushed by someone, complicating matters since there was someone engaging in such misconduct. Upon examining the footage more closely, Kang Yue recognized the guilty party—wasn’t he the dance hall owner she had seen before? It was despicable of him to stoop so low, only intending to disrupt the order here and cause panic, unknowing that these pampered young lords were merely enjoying the spectacle as bystanders.

With no one bothering who exactly was behind this, the dance hall owner, seeing the situation escalating, didn’t dare stay any longer, thinking escaping would save him from being connected to the incident.

Observing a figure stealthily heading towards the exit, thinking of never returning so no one could reach him...

When Shen Dong caught a signal from Kang Yue, he directly apprehended the dance hall owner, who then attempted to struggle.

"What do you want? I don’t want to spend money here anymore. You don’t let me leave when I see how chaotic it is here, this is illegal detention. I’m warning you, be careful or I’ll call the police and get you all arrested,"

the dance hall owner struggled to say, his voice revealing his guilt. If these people found out he was the cause, he would surely suffer greatly, thinking of slipping away while they were still clueless.

He had never anticipated that they would have surveillance here, typically not something monitored.

"Why so guilty the moment you see me? Wanting to run away just like that? I don’t know if this has anything to do with you, but the surveillance showed you pushing this gentleman. At the least, you should apologize to him.

This gentleman was beaten because of you; don’t you feel any remorse?" the drunkard grumbled inwardly about this man, whose actions had caused him loss of face today, leading to being mocked and beaten by those kids.

Shen Dong posed these stern questions, hoping to urge the man to confess, causing a stir among the attendees. The beaten gentleman hadn’t expected that being pushed out had led to his beating.

Initially, he thought he hadn’t made any enemies there, wondering why anyone would want to push him out to get beaten. Assuming it was all a misunderstanding, he might have fabricated a reason to avoid being driven out; if nothing else, he could always claim he was too drunk to remember anything when the time came.

Now that the man responsible was identified, anger welled up again—if not for him, he wouldn’t have been beaten. Under these circumstances, he certainly needed to settle the score.

"You despicable man, I knew you weren’t any good, daring to push me. I’ll beat the life out of you,"

the gentleman declared, somewhat inebriated, raising his fist. But with Shen Dong present, how could he just watch this situation unfold? If a fight really broke out, once the police arrived, it would be a messy affair, hard to justify and explain.
