Being held like this for the first time, Qiu Yihe's body visibly shuddered unnaturally.
This unfamiliar yet intimate contact made her feel uneasy, while simultaneously causing her heart to race involuntarily and her cheeks to flush slightly.
Fortunately, Jiang Cheng was very clever; he let go after only a brief embrace.
Seeing the guarded expressions of the Young Ladies from the Atmosphere Group turn sour with jealousy.
Qiu Yihe secretly rolled her eyes at Jiang Cheng.
Shen An spoke up, "Is she really our sister-in-law? Are you okay, sister-in-law? No wonder Brother Cheng was so angry just now."
Fu Yang chimed in, "What was up with those people? So many of them bullying you alone? No way, what trash. Let's go, we really need to teach those guys a lesson."
Jiang Cheng waved his hand, "Just a bunch of drunks. No need for you guys to go; they've probably been sent to the hospital by now."
Seeing Jiang Cheng dismiss them as mere drunks, Qiu Yihe also replied, "I'm fine. Luckily Jiang Cheng showed up quickly, so I wasn't hurt."
Lü Chengwen said to the nearby Sales Manager, "Is the environment at your Mr. Thirteen always this chaotic? If something had happened to our sister-in-law today, could you afford the consequences?"
"Exactly! If it weren't for how reasonable our sister-in-law is, how could this matter be resolved so easily?"
The Sales Manager forced a smile while secretly lamenting in his heart.
The Sales Manager was feeling very miserable right now, okay?
The incident happened at the table he was serving.
He had seen the scene just now, and he was still worried about whether Jiang Cheng had been too heavy-handed.
Moreover, he was the one who served this group every time they brought people here to play.
Today, they had brought a new customer like Jiang Cheng, whose spending power felt substantial.
On the bright side, if he could retain a big client like Jiang Cheng, his monthly commission would surely increase significantly.
But on the downside, what if today's incident had infuriated these big shots?
If they stopped coming to spend money in the future, wouldn't his monthly commission take a huge hit?
Thinking of this, the Sales Manager's expression became even more unsightly. With a bitter face and a forced smile, he said to everyone.
"Gentlemen, I am truly sorry that such a thing happened today. I will definitely report this matter truthfully to the management. How about this: the cost of the snacks for your table tonight will be completely waived as a token of our sincerity. Please, gentlemen, don't be angry."
Shen An spoke up directly, "Hey, hey, hey, we're out to have fun. Do you think I'm short on cash for snacks? Is this about money?"
Seeing this, Jiang Cheng quickly patted Shen An on the shoulder.
Seeing this, Jiang Cheng patted Shen An on the shoulder, "Alright, alright, stop scaring him. If you keep going, he'll cry and you'll have to comfort him."
Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Shen An couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Brother Cheng, you're really something."
Jiang Cheng smiled and shook his head, "Alright, I have to take your sister-in-law back first. You guys have fun."
As soon as Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Shen An couldn't help but tease, "No way, Brother Cheng, is sister-in-law that strict with you?"
His gaze fell on Qiu Yihe, seeing her face turn red again because of the title'sister-in-law.'
Seeing this, the corners of Jiang Cheng's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile.
He intentionally followed Shen An's lead and said, "Yeah, there's nothing I can do. Your sister-in-law just loves to get jealous, and I wouldn't dare make her angry."
Qiu Yihe really wanted to deny it, but she wasn't sure what Jiang Cheng was planning.
She secretly wondered if Jiang Cheng was doing this because he felt awkward refusing the Young Ladies from the Atmosphere Group.
Beside them, Fu Yang heard Jiang Cheng's words and shook his head helplessly, sighing, "Sigh, I mourn for you, Brother Cheng."
As soon as he finished, Shen An and Lü Chengwen also said in unison, "We mourn for you."
Facing everyone's teasing, Jiang Cheng laughed and cursed, "Mourn my ass! What do you guys know? Doesn't she just blow everyone else away here? With such a beautiful girlfriend, what do I have to mourn about?"
After he said this, Shen An and the other two were suddenly left speechless, unable to say a word.
One had to realize that although Qiu Yihe's charm didn't reach the ultra-high level of 90 points.
It was still a solid 88 points. Such a score was definitely outstanding among ordinary people.
Not to mention when compared to those so-called Young Ladies of the 'Atmosphere Group' on the floor.
Their gazes fell once again on the bare-faced Qiu Yihe.
It was obvious that Qiu Yihe wasn't wearing any makeup.
Yet her beautiful face was still as fresh and refined as a lotus emerging from clear water, making one's eyes light up.
With such a comparison, the group suddenly felt that the Young Ladies of the Atmosphere Group, whose faces were caked in powder, seemed a bit hard to stomach.
Originally, Qiu Yihe had thought Jiang Cheng was using her as a shield because he felt awkward directly rejecting the Young Ladies from the 'Atmosphere Group.'
That's why he was using her as a shield.
However, when she heard Jiang Cheng's direct answer, she immediately realized that wasn't the case.
Thinking of this, a strange feeling couldn't help but well up in Qiu Yihe's heart.
She couldn't help but steal a few glances at Jiang Cheng.
Just as Jiang Cheng was about to tell them he was leaving, the music on the scene suddenly stopped without any warning.
The colorful lights of the entire bar were turned off, and the originally dim and blurred atmosphere was instantly pierced by bright light.
The previously deafening music came to an abrupt halt, replaced by a dead silence.
Some of the Young Ladies who had originally been using the cover of the lights and angles.
And had already started 'autopiloting' on some of the big shots.
Were frightened out of their wits by this sudden change.
They screamed and, like startled fawns, dove straight into the arms of the big shots.
As for those big shots, although they still tried to maintain a calm exterior.
In reality, they were also scared half to death.
Except for a very few 'old drivers' who were still immersed in their own worlds and couldn't stop.
