Qin Gengxin could only see their backs from afar. It was as if he didn't see Xian Guiying. Instead, he just looked at Boss Ting as he walked over slowly.
"Ah, Mr. Qin!" Boss Ting hurriedly stood in front of him, not letting him look in Xian Guiying's direction. The two waiters who were holding her quickly dropped her, not daring to move. They could only wait for Qin Gengxin to leave before pulling her away.
Xian Guiying coughed repeatedly. Hearing Qin Gengxin's voice, she instinctively wanted to ask for help, but her hand was caught, and her mouth was fiercely covered. No one knew what was in the bottle and she was unable to muster any strength and could only let out a "wuu" sound.
"Why didn't Mr. Qin play for a while? Do you want me to arrange some beauty for you?" Boss Ting smiled and wanted to put his arm around Qin Gengxin's shoulder.
Qin Gengxin did not look in Xian Guiying's direction, he just smiled and said, "Sure."
Just as Boss Ting was about to put his hand on his (Qin Gengxin) shoulder, Qin Gengxin's eyes flashed. Then, he suddenly raised his fist and punched him in the face cruelly. Before Boss Ting could react, Qin Gengxin bent his knee and punched him brutally in the stomach.
"Puff …"
Boss Ting was beaten until he was pushed against the wall. Then, when Qin Gengxin raised his hand and was about to hit him again, Boss Ting immediately raised his hand with an expression begging for forgiveness, "No, no, Brother Qin, what are you doing? I… I, Tin Dandan, never offended you!"
Qin Gengxin was not someone Boss Ting could have offended.
"Brother?" Qin Gengxin gave a faint smile and punched him hard in the chin. "Who is your brother?!"
"Mother?" Boss Ting was beaten until his whole body fell to the ground. He immediately cursed and raised his eyes to get up, only to see Qin Gengxin turn around and walk towards the two waiters.
Boss Tin immediately understood. After hesitating for a moment, he glanced at the two waiters.
Just as those waiters were about to leave with Xian Guiying, Qin Gengxin said, "Release that person!"
How did the two waiters know when to stop? They were used to listening to their boss, so they immediately dragged Xian Guiying, who couldn't even stand and ran away.
"I'll say this for the last time, let her go!" Qin Gengxin walked step by step. The lights in the front room were dim and no one could see his expression clearly.
"Let go, let go! Let go of her, let go of her quickly!" At first, Boss Ting didn't want to be beaten, but he didn't dare offend a person like Qin Gengxin. He could only raise his hand to cover his chin as he screamed.
The two waiters were startled for a moment, then they quickly released her.
Xian Guiying had no strength left in her body. As soon as the two men released her, she fell to her knees on the stairs. The impact caused her to moan in pain.
Qin Gengxin walked towards her without expression. As he bent down to help her, Xian Guiying clenched her teeth and pushed him away. "Don't touch me!"
Qin Gengxin ignored her words. He pushed her hands and helped her up. He looked at her messy hair and the alcohol stain on the front of her still undried clothes. He looked back at the two waiters and coldly asked, "What did you give her?"
The two waiters bowed their heads, not daring to make a sound.
Boss Ting walked over while rubbing his chin and said vaguely, "Mr. Qin … It's just a bottle of wine."
Seeing Qin Gengxin's cold expression, Boss Ting swallowed, "It's the truth. I didn't dare to drug her because I am afraid of getting caught up by the evidence. She has a stubborn nature, so I gave her medicine to make her lose her strength …"
With that, Boss Ting walked over to him and leaned into his ear with a fawning face, saying, "That … Mr.Qin.."
What exactly the name of the drug was, Xian Guiying did not listen. She only saw the cold expression on Qin Gengxin's face.
"Scram!" Qin Gengxin cursed and suddenly grabbed Xian Guiying by the waist.
Her head dropped slightly, and then Qin Gengxin grabbed her head and leaned it on his shoulder. He took her out of the hall and quickly walked outside.
Boss Ting quickly gave chase, "Mr. Qin …"
When he saw Qin Gengxin was gone, he scolded him rudely. He then cursed and looked at his men, "What are you waiting for?! Tomorrow morning, our bar will probably be destroyed by him. You all better clear your mind and immediately pack up all the valuables. We can use that money to make up for it! Still looking?! Go get it!"
"Yes sir!"

Xian Guiying felt dizzy and lightheaded. She could only feel a warm embrace hugging her tightly.
As her body was laid on the soft bed, she frowned and opened her eyes under the light from the room. She saw Qin Gengxin rushing to the bathroom and washing the towel under the sink.
He then walked over with the wet towel and unbutton her jacket. Xian Guiying didn't have the strength to stop him, so she just closed her eyes. She spoke in a low, hoarse voice, "Qin Gengxin, I've regretted knowing you."
Qin Gengxin's hand stopped slightly, he looked at her pale face and furrowed eyebrows. He then sighed and shook his head. Then he used the towel to wipe the grape stain from her neck and around the collarbone before returning to rewash the towel and wipe her face.
Seeing that he didn't say a word and just wiped her face, Xian Guiying couldn't bear to watch it anymore. Closing her eyes again, she said, "Every time I'm in trouble, it's always because of you. This time is no exception."
Qin Gengxin laughed. "Who asked you to be so flamboyant? Everywhere you go, people are always looking at you."
Xian Guiying rolled her eyes, not in the mood to joke with him. Qin Gengxin put the towel aside and sat on the edge of the bed before raising his hand to touch her forehead, caressed her face, and said, "Luckily he didn't give you the aphrodisiac, otherwise even ten lives couldn't save him."
"Aphrodisiac?" Xian Guiying's face turned pale, but then she suddenly thought of something. If she was really drugged with an aphrodisiac, then who would be the cheap one at the moment?
Apparently having guessed what she was thinking, Qin Gengxin chuckled.
Seeing him smile, Xian Guiying wanted to turn her back on him. In the end, he held her back and said, "Alright, that's enough. Stop acting like a brat. You don't have any strength left in you, so don't try to show off."
She didn't move and could only lie weakly on the bed and turned her head away from him.
Qin Gengxin looked at her for a moment before gently brushing the hair on her forehead. After a while, he gently said, "Guiying, I'm sorry."
