Chapter 258: Chapter 257: Who Are You?

"I’ve been there too? And it’s your place? Where on earth is it? You’re being all mysterious," Xiao Manxuan said, her curiosity piqued and quite unhappy with Lin Tian for keeping secrets.

As far as she remembered, Lin Tian had no fixed residence in Xikou City, so suddenly he had a place that was his own, and Xiao Manxuan couldn’t figure out where it could be.

"Second Miss, it’s a secret for now. Just be patient for a little while longer; we’ll be there soon," Lin Tian, driving the car, simply wouldn’t spill the beans.

The little girl, annoyed, turned her head away to ignore Lin Tian, but couldn’t hold out for more than two minutes before she dropped the act. Pouting her lips, she said in a coquettish voice, "You big meanie, just tell me, please?"

It was the first time Lin Tian had seen her act coquettishly towards him. Her voice was incredibly soft, and he felt his body tremble as if electrified, damn, the power of this beauty’s coquettishness was no joke.

Just as he was about to tell her, Lin Tian caught a sly glimmer in the little girl’s eyes. So she was deploying the ’acting cute’ strategy on me, almost fell for it. Sure enough, she’s still that mischievous girl, hehe, I’m just not telling you. Lin Tian shook his head without answering her, and continued driving.

Seeing that acting spoilt was ineffective, Xiao Manxuan then pretended to say fiercely, "Are you going to talk, or not? If not, I’ll have to ’torture’ you!"

...

All the way there, the little girl used no less than ten different tactics, even resorting to seduction. Just as she was about to lunge at him, Lin Tian suddenly hit the brakes and stopped.

"What’s going on, why aren’t we moving?" Xiao Manxuan asked, puzzled.

"Here we are, beauty. Please get out and see if you’ve been here before," Lin Tian said with a laugh as he got out and opened the car door for her.

Xiao Manxuan got out of the car, clueless, and looked around. Then she saw the huge sign of the Night Rose Bar, glowing in rosy light against the night sky.

"The Night Rose Bar?" Xiao Manxuan’s mind hadn’t caught up as she recalled, "Isn’t this the bar where I played piano last time? But wasn’t it owned by Bai Yufeng and Sun Decai?"

"It was their turf till this morning, but now it’s mine, haha. Let’s go in and check it out. From now on, it’ll be your place too, please, Queen, take a look around," Lin Tian said with a chuckle, jokingly.

"Really? It’s mine too?" Xiao Manxuan beamed at Lin Tian. It didn’t matter to her what the place was, she was just overjoyed at having something in common with Lin Tian.

"Of course, you’re welcome any time you like," Lin Tian said with a smile, leading the way into the bar.

The little girl followed behind, murmuring at a volume only she could hear, "I don’t want to come here often, only if you’re here."

The bar at night was many times busier than during the day, with numerous flashy cars and extravagantly styled motorcycles parked outside. There were several Harley motorcycles, modified into bizarre shapes, one even resembled the skeletal frame seen in the ’Ghost Rider’ movie.

Only motorcycle enthusiasts would indulge in such customization, probably the work of some retired professional racers.

When they walked through the bar’s main entrance, whistles directed at Lin Tian and his companion were unavoidable. Some sexy ladies initially wanted to approach, but upon seeing Xiao Manxuan beside Lin Tian, they lost their confidence to strike up a conversation. Although Xiao Manxuan was dressed in a school uniform, her natural, unsculpted beauty shone through, a charm that no clothing could hide.

Upon entering the bar’s main hall, the broken tables and stools from noon had already been cleared and everything looked newly refreshed. Lin Tian ignored the dance performance on the stage and headed straight for the staircase leading to the second floor. However, he had only just reached the staircase when a security guard came over to block the way.

"You two can’t go upstairs. If you want to have fun, you can stay on the first floor," the security guard said politely, but his intention was clear—ordinary people were only allowed on the first floor.

"Call your security captain over," Lin Tian said indifferently, ignoring what he had been told.

These were not legitimate security guards; mostly they were gangsters hired by Bai Yufeng who masqueraded as security guards when nothing was amiss but could turn into enforcers in an emergency. Lin Tian had encountered this before, when he twisted their Double Flower Red Stick’s iron rod into a pretzel.

"Who are you? Captain Ma isn’t someone you can just demand to see! Move along, or I won’t be polite," the guard revealed his thuggish nature within two sentences, constantly speaking of impoliteness.

"What’s going on? Why are you stopping the guests? I’ve told you numerous times not to bring that street nonsense into the bar," a loud voice said.

Lin Tian turned around and smiled upon seeing the newcomer. It was none other than the bar’s Double Flower Red Stick, but this time he was not wielding an iron rod and was instead dressed in a black suit. With this tidy attire, one could hardly tell he was capable of wielding a large iron rod.

He was stunned to see Lin Tian; although he had only met Lin Tian once, the impression had been profoundly memorable. He still kept that twisted iron rod.

"Mr. Lin, it’s you," he quickly approached, nodding respectfully. This respect was genuine and sincere, without any pretense.

After exchanging greetings, he turned to the thug and scolded, "Step back, do you think you can block the way Mr. Lin wants to go? You are truly clueless. If I catch you bringing that street nonsense into the bar again, see how I deal with you."

The Double Flower Red Stick must hold a significant position in the bar; otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to scold the thug like that. However, it was strange that the thug wasn’t afraid of him, instead his expression turned grim, and after casting a few glances at Lin Tian and the Double Flower Red Stick, he left.

Heh, how interesting, this bar’s thug actually isn’t afraid of a Double Flower Red Stick. That’s quite unreasonable, Lin Tian thought with a smile playing on his lips.

"Mr. Lin, please don’t take offense. I’ll discipline him later," Double Flower Red Stick said respectfully again, and then turned to Xiao Manxuan, saying, "This must be the sister-in-law. The piano piece you played last time was really beautiful."

It seemed he didn’t know how to describe the divine sound and could only call it beautiful, but his tone was very honest. This guy wasn’t bad, Lin Tian thought with a smile. He didn’t correct the man’s reference to Xiao Manxuan, considering plenty of people already mistook her as his woman.

"I want to visit the accounting office; has the location changed?" Lin Tian asked directly.

"Why don’t I take you both there? It’s better than having some unobservant folks disturb Mr. Lin," Double Flower Red Stick volunteered eagerly to lead the way.

Bai Yufeng must have completely hands-off by now. Otherwise, he would have removed his own people. It seems like Bai Yuanhao has been detained, no wonder the people here haven’t realized that the bar has changed ownership, Lin Tian thought for a moment, then motioned for the Double Flower Red Stick to lead the way.
