NOVEL NEXT Chapter 4:
Chapter 4: The Jade-Faced Demoness:
In Dragon City.
At this moment, the Moonlight Bar was bustling with people. As one of the top bars in the area, it attracted a steady stream of customers every night.
One reason was the high number of attractive women, and another was the bar’s exceptional security compared to others.
The reason for this?
Moonlight Bar was owned by none other than Zhou Suyun, one of the most powerful figures in Dragon City’s underground scene. No one dared to stir up trouble here.
But most of all, Zhou Suyun herself was a stunning beauty, and she occasionally made appearances at the bar, giving people even more reason to visit.
At one table, Yang Lu sat back in his chair with his legs crossed, casually holding a glass of wine. A revealingly dressed woman approached him, sitting down beside him and giving him a flirty look.
“Hey, handsome, drinking alone? Isn’t that a bit boring? How about I keep you company?”
The woman’s eyes glimmered as she looked at Yang Lu.
From his designer clothes and the expensive watch on his wrist, she could tell he was someone important. If she could get him to buy her a few things, maybe she’d score a new handbag this month. She had full confidence in her charm, but Yang Lu’s next words quickly changed her expression.
“Get lost. You’ve got about two pounds of foundation on your face, and it’s putting me off.”
Yang Lu didn’t even bother to look directly at her. This type of woman wasn’t worth his time—he wouldn’t be interested even if she threw herself at him. Who knows how many diseases she might have?
After taking another sip of his drink, he mused that it was several thousand bucks down the drain. Not that he cared—he was a rich heir, after all!
“You… Fine, you’ll regret this!” the woman snapped, throwing a final threat over her shoulder as she stormed off.
Witnessing this scene, a few onlookers spoke up urgently.
“Hey, man, you should get out of here.”
“That woman knows Zhou Suyun.”
“If she comes, you’re in big trouble.”
They recognized the woman as one of Zhou Suyun’s former employees. Yang Lu had provoked her, and the consequences could be severe.
But Yang Lu’s response left them speechless.
“So what? Even if Zhou Suyun shows up, what’s she gonna do?”
Honestly, he didn’t care about anyone except the main protagonist; other people weren’t worth his time. After all, he was now a second-level Nine Yang Divine Art practitioner!
“Such arrogance! When did my name stop striking fear into people?”
“Zhou Suyun! The Jade-Faced Demoness!”
Just as he finished speaking, a woman entered the room with a group of people, exuding an aura of danger. She wore a red dress, her beauty captivating yet chilling, evoking a sense of fear in those around her. This was Zhou Suyun, the owner of Moonlight Bar, known as the Jade-Faced Demoness.
She earned that title not just because of her stunning looks, but because she showed no mercy when killing. Many men had fallen by her hand—if not a hundred, then close to it.
Seeing Yang Lu drinking so nonchalantly, Zhou Suyun felt a surge of annoyance. A lowly rich kid dared to disrespect her? He must have a death wish.
Yang Lu finally put down his glass and took a good look at Zhou Suyun. She was, indeed, the second female lead of this novel.
Yes, she was another female lead.
Zhou Suyun’s father had once been a minor player in Dragon City’s underworld, until he crossed the wrong people and was killed. They even tried to kill Zhou Suyun, who was just a middle school student at the time. Thankfully, one of her father’s friends stepped in, saving her life and sending her abroad.
That incident transformed her. She returned to Dragon City a few years later, dropping her innocent persona to become one of the top figures in the underground world.
Despite her ruthlessness, she eventually fell victim to the protagonist’s influence, joining his harem and becoming his tool. She handled all his dirty work, doing things he couldn’t be seen doing himself.
In the end, she was killed by one of Zhao Ritian’s enemies, dying tragically. Her last words to Zhao were that she had no regrets. Yet, just a day after her death, the protagonist was already with the first female lead.
Yang Lu thought to himself, “Another woman with no brain. Why do they have to be like this?”
“Zhou Jie, that’s the guy!” said the woman Yang Lu had insulted earlier, pointing at him with fury. Zhou Suyun nodded, casting a cold glance at Yang Lu. She was surprised by how calm he was, even as he continued drinking, and then she spoke icily.
“I’ll give you two options.”
“First, break both of your arms yourself, then crawl over and apologize.”
“Second, I’ll come over and do it myself, and it won’t just be your arms—it’ll be your legs, too.”
“I’ll give you 10 seconds to decide.”
