Jin Luoluo found herself surrounded by a large crowd of merchants. Even if she had ten mouths, she still wouldn’t have been able to respond to all of them.
But that wasn’t the real problem.
The real problem was that there were simply too many people. Some unscrupulous merchants took advantage of the chaos to cop a feel, secretly touching her hands. Some were even worse, pressing their entire bodies against her as they squeezed closer.
They were exactly like the lecherous gropers on modern-day buses—absolutely disgusting.
Jin Luoluo was so angry that her fingers trembled. She wanted nothing more than to kick those perverts away.
However, the crowd was too dense, and she couldn’t tell who the offenders were. She was afraid of accidentally kicking an innocent person and causing an ugly scene.
While she hesitated, someone groped her waist again.
Damn it!
That was the last straw. There was only so much she could tolerate.
“Make way. Miss Jin already has an appointment with me. You’ll have to wait your turn!”
A domineering, arrogant voice drifted over from behind Jin Luoluo.
Crack!
The hand that had been taking liberties with Jin Luoluo’s waist was instantly twisted out of joint by the owner of that voice.
Following the sound, Jin Luoluo turned to see a greasy, overweight man crying out in pain.
Even a vulgar rat like him had dared to touch her?
Without the slightest mercy, Jin Luoluo kicked him.
“Hmph! Looking like a monkey and still daring to take advantage of me? Did you think I wouldn’t do anything to you? I’ll make sure you can’t survive in the capital. Anyone who dares do business with him is making an enemy of me, Jin Luoluo. Think carefully before you decide.”
The man had never expected Jin Luoluo to openly expose the fact that he had molested her. His face flushed crimson as the people around him looked at him with contempt, some even loudly condemning him for his shameless behavior.
Humiliated, he no longer cared about the pain in his hand and fled the hall in disgrace.
“Let’s go.”
The man who had spoken earlier grabbed Jin Luoluo’s hand and forcefully pulled her out of the crowd, completely ignoring the dissatisfied protests of the surrounding merchants.
“Handsome Pants-Pulling Guy, it’s you again?” Jin Luoluo said as she followed the hand holding hers upward with her gaze.
The man before her was strikingly handsome, dressed in blue. His features were sharp and well-defined, with an appearance that suggested mixed heritage. His expression was cool and aloof.
Jin Luoluo didn’t resist. Instead, she took the opportunity to escape from the swarm of merchants.
There was a fierce, intimidating aura about this green-eyed man that discouraged others from approaching him.
Lan Cangxuan’s expression darkened.
Could she stop bringing up the pants incident every time she opened her mouth? That was the greatest humiliation of his life.
“You’re not allowed to call me that. I have a name. I’ll permit you to call me Lan Cangxuan.”
Lan Cangxuan led her to a seating area on the eastern side of the banquet hall.
