Chapter 39: A Romantic Encounter

Page (1/3)
Four wall-phasing actions, consuming 400 system points.
Invisibility plus X-ray vision for a total of 10 minutes, consuming 600 system points.
I have a total of 77,000 points now, and in just this short while, I’ve already spent 1/77th of them!
I still need to work hard to complete missions. Once my system points are plentiful, I’ll be able to live as recklessly as I want.
Speaking of being reckless, why not go to a bar and have some fun?
Jiang Jin hadn’t visited a single bar since he transmigrated into this world.
Besides, having just witnessed the battle between Liu Sanhai and Xue Ting, it would be unnatural for a man not to have certain thoughts.
I’ve heard that many beauties frequent the bars in the Magic City; perhaps I might have a romantic encounter tonight?
With this in mind, Jiang Jin walked to the roadside, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for the bar district.
Half an hour later, Red Rose Bar.
Jiang Jin sat at the bar counter and ordered a cocktail, sipping it slowly.
Before long, a beauty in a black spaghetti-strap dress approached him.
"Hi, handsome. Are you here alone?"
Jiang Jin glanced at her. Beneath the heavy makeup, her looks were probably around an 80.
Her figure was maybe an 85, though it was hard to tell if it was natural or enhanced.
"Sorry, miss, I’m waiting for a friend."
Jiang Jin offered a polite smile and declined her advance.
It couldn't be helped; after having seen Wu Qingya, Liu Sisi, Yu Manli, and Yu Shishi, ordinary women were finding it hard to catch his eye.
After the woman in the strap dress left, three more beauties approached him one after another.
Who could blame them? Jiang Jin was incredibly handsome, wearing an Armani suit and a Patek Philippe watch.
With money and looks, it would be strange not to be hit on.
It was just a pity that none of these three beauties caught his eye either.
Darn it, his standards had been spoiled by the likes of Wu Qingya and the others. It seemed there would be no romantic encounter tonight.
Just as Jiang Jin was planning to finish his drink and return to the hotel, a beautiful woman, appearing to be in her thirties, suddenly sat down beside him.
She was wearing a V-neck, backless black evening gown, her figure lithe and exceptionally curvaceous.
Jiang Jin estimated—D-cup? Or perhaps E?
Under the gown, she had a slender waist, a shapely bottom, and fair, long legs.
The key was her face; she was even more stunning than Yu Manli! Absolutely breathtaking!
This woman was wearing a diamond-encrusted Vacheron Constantin watch.
Jiang Jin didn't know the specific model, but there was a lever on the side of the case.
Based on his knowledge of watches, this had to be a minute repeater.
A minute repeater is a watch that can chime the time.
There is a button or lever on the side of the case; when pressed, one can hear "ding-ding-dong" sounds reporting the time, using different chimes to indicate hours, quarters, and minutes.
For example, 1:33 would be one strike, two double-chimes, and three single chimes.
Along with the tourbillon and perpetual calendar, the minute repeater is one of the greatest challenges in mechanical watchmaking.
Simply put, minute repeaters are very expensive!
Especially a Vacheron Constantin minute repeater; each one costs over ten million!

Furthermore, the jewelry the woman was wearing also appeared to be worth a fortune.
A great figure, high beauty, and wealth—this woman was no ordinary person.
Just as Jiang Jin was observing the woman, a bald man with a briefcase tucked under his arm walked over.
"Hi, beautiful. Are you here alone?"
While greeting her, the middle-aged man flashed the Richard Mille watch on his wrist.
Richard Mille was a watch brand that had risen in recent years; its brand history was far behind Vacheron Constantin’s.
However, the watches from this brand were all very expensive, with most models costing over a million.
The one on the middle-aged man’s wrist was worth as much as ten million!
Behind him followed four burly bodyguards in black suits.
"I’m not alone, unless you think I’m a ghost?"
Song Xueqing was in a very bad mood tonight, so her tone was cold and sharp.
Jiang Jin couldn't help himself and nearly burst out laughing.
"Alright, I spoke incorrectly."
"My name is Wang Dafai. I’m in the coal mining business."
The middle-aged man wasn't embarrassed and introduced himself.
He then sat in the adjacent seat, acting very familiar, and snapped his fingers at the bartender.
"Two Margaritas. I’m buying this lady a drink."
"Certainly, sir. Please wait a moment."
The bartender gave a knowing smile and began mixing the drinks.
Song Xueqing frowned slightly and politely refused: "Sorry, I’m not in the habit of letting strangers buy me drinks."
"Beauty, it’s fate that we met. Give me some face, won't you?"
Wang Dafai fully utilized the spirit of being thick-skinned and shameless.
As long as he could get the woman, what did dignity matter?
Song Xueqing sighed and stood up to leave.
Unexpectedly, the moment she stood up, Wang Dafai reached out and grabbed her wrist.
"Beauty, you don't have to be so disrespectful, do you?"
As he spoke, the four bodyguards in black blocked her path.
Song Xueqing was stunned for a moment, then grabbed the glass in front of Jiang Jin and splashed it onto Wang Dafai’s face.
Jiang Jin muttered to himself, "How unlucky. I hadn't even taken a few sips of that drink, and you go and splash it?"
"Damn it, you dare splash me?"
Wang Dafai was stunned for a second, then raised his hand to slap her.
Song Xueqing was terrified and quickly turned her head away.
Just as she thought she was about to be humiliated!
"Snap!" A crisp sound rang out! The expected pain did not come!
Confused, Song Xueqing turned to look and found a hand tightly gripping Wang Dafai’s wrist.
"I say, uncle, the lady doesn't want to drink with you, so let her leave. Why make things difficult for her?"
Jiang Jin curled his lips into a mocking smile.
"Damn it, you dare to interfere in my business?"

Wang Dafai was furious and gave a violent tug to pull his hand back! It didn't budge at all!
While Wang Dafai was stunned, Jiang Jin formed his hand into a blade and struck Wang Dafai’s other hand sharply.
"Ah!"
Wang Dafai let out a cry of pain and retracted the hand gripping the beauty's wrist as if he had been electrocuted.
He then looked at his four bodyguards and roared, "What the hell are you standing there for? Get him!"
The commotion had already drawn the attention of other customers in the bar.
However, such things were too common in bars, so no one stepped in to mediate.
Following Wang Dafai’s order, his four bodyguards rushed toward Jiang Jin, fists swinging.
Jiang Jin smiled mockingly. After letting go of Wang Dafai, he lifted his leg and kicked the nearest bodyguard flying.
Then, like a tiger among sheep, he struck down the other three bodyguards in a flurry of movements!
The entire process took less than 3 seconds!
Wang Dafai was completely dumbfounded!
These were bodyguards he had hired at a high price, the kind that ordinary people couldn't get close to.
How were they like lambs to the slaughter in front of this man?
*Hiss!*
The bar was filled with the sound of people gasping!
"Damn, this guy doesn't look as strong as those bodyguards, how is he so good at fighting?"
"A fighting champion? A retired special forces soldier?"
A strange gleam appeared in Song Xueqing’s beautiful eyes.
This young man was handsome and had great fighting skills; she felt a sudden, inexplicable attraction!
Just as Wang Dafai was in a daze, Jiang Jin grabbed his collar and lifted him into the air with one hand.
"When chasing a woman, you should never use force. It just makes you look classy-less, got it, uncle?"
Intimidated by Jiang Jin’s overwhelming strength, Wang Dafai nodded with a pale face.
"I... I got it."
Jiang Jin’s eyes sharpened: "Since you got it, why don't you apologize to this lady?"
"I'm... I'm sorry. I shouldn't have treated you like that just now. I... I apologize."
Wang Dafai forced out a smile that looked worse than crying and said to Song Xueqing.
Song Xueqing snorted coldly and turned her head away.
"Alright, you can get lost now."
Jiang Jin shook his head with a smile and threw Wang Dafai aside.
*Thump.*
After Wang Dafai fell flat on his face, he didn't care about his injuries and scrambled to his feet to leave.
Once his four bodyguards had also left, Song Xueqing said, "Thank you for saving me just now."
Jiang Jin smiled calmly and replied modestly, "It was just a small favor."
