Chapter 262: Seemingly Calm
Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty-Two: Seemingly Calm （Three）
Peng Lele looked at Xia Yang with hazy eyes and mumbled, “Xia Yang, can I call you that?”
Her voice was incredibly gentle and endearing. Hearing this and seeing Peng Lele like this, Xia Yang immediately sobered up. He shook his head, clarified who was in front of him, and reached out to create distance between himself and Peng Lele.
Xia Yang’s lips pressed into a thin line, his gaze carrying a sharp, cold aura.
Drunk, Peng Lele was dissatisfied with the distance Xia Yang created and said, “Why are you keeping your distance from me?”
Xia Yang looked at the tipsy Peng Lele and sighed helplessly. He looked into Peng Lele’s eyes and replied earnestly, “I’m not avoiding you. Besides, there’s nothing for us to avoid between us!”
Xia Yang’s reply deeply wounded Peng Lele’s heart. Peng Lele, in her distress, fumbled for a wine bottle, wanting to use strong liquor to numb her heart further.
She said sadly, “Why is there no more wine?”
She slumped onto the sofa powerlessly, murmuring to herself, “Why?”
Xia Yang knew she was asking him. He said with a bitter smile, “Miss Peng, I understand your mood right now. However, loving someone doesn’t necessarily mean possessing them. You can also quietly watch them find Happiness, isn’t that also good?”
What Xia Yang said was actually also for himself. He blessed Qing Tian and didn’t Entangle with Qing Tian, trying his best not to let his presence become a bother to Qing Tian!
Peng Lele wasn’t unaware of the underlying meaning in Xia Yang’s words. It’s just that everyone knows the logic, but when it comes to actually doing it, how many can truly achieve it?
With a silent sigh, Peng Lele struggled to get up. She didn’t want to stay any longer, shamelessly. Her losing control in front of Xia Yang not only made things difficult for him but also embarrassed her!
Peng Lele, dragging her wobbly body, walked out of the bar.
As soon as she exited the doorway of the bar, the dark street was illuminated by only two or three dim streetlights, along with the taxis waiting for passengers outside.
Some men stood nearby, smoking. When they saw Peng Lele emerge, their eyes all turned towards her. She was naturally quite attractive, and even though she was wearing jeans and a t-shirt, she still drew their attention.
One man, smoking, whistled with interest and said, “Yo, Beautiful Woman, want me to take you home?”
Peng Lele looked at the man’s face and felt a wave of nausea. She immediately vomited, coincidentally right onto the man. It was as disgusting as it could get!
The man looked at the vomit on himself, immediately pinched his nose, and said fiercely, “Damn it, you woman, you did that on purpose! Watch how Master deals with you!”
With that, he raised his hand as if to slap Peng Lele. The tipsy Peng Lele raised her hand first and fiercely slapped the man across the face, roaring, “Bad man, get lost!”
The man sneered at Peng Lele. He hadn’t even made a move, and this woman had slapped him. If this got out, how could he continue to hang around here?
He couldn’t swallow this insult. The man exerted force and fiercely grabbed Peng Lele’s hair. As soon as he grabbed it, Peng Lele screamed loudly, “Let go, let go quickly!”
Her ponytail was pulled, causing her to grimace in pain.
She thought she was going to be severely beaten by the man, but in the next second, the man was already on the ground. Peng Lele, with hazy eyes, watched Xia Yang’s foot firmly planted on the man. Her heart instantly felt much more at ease. Although Xia Yang had clearly rejected her and didn’t like her, at the very least, he wouldn’t stand by and watch her suffer. Perhaps this was enough!
Peng Lele took a deep Breath and looked at the several men preparing to surround them. She immediately grabbed Xia Yang’s hand and they ran away frantically!
Initially, Peng Lele was pulling Xia Yang’s hand to escape. After not running for long, it became Xia Yang pulling Peng Lele’s hand as they fled.
The people behind them were relentlessly pursuing, but now they didn’t know which street they had lost them on.
Peng Lele truly wished they could keep running forever, never stopping!!!
