The party continued, some started to play drinking games and started to drown themselves with the alcohol. Meanwhile, some people were grooving to the music and were enjoying themselves.

On the other hand, Xu Nuan was awkwardly staring at everyone. She wanted to get along with them but there was something that was now allowing her to do so.

At first, everyone was interested in her, but she soon realized that they were interested in gossip related to her, not in her particularly.

The conversations that they were having, she was not part of them. Or if they were talking to her, it was either about her and Xingren's feud or her boyfriend. There was nothing common to talk to.

'Seems like I can't mingle with everyone.' she wondered. After spending half of her life in training and working, she doesn't have any experience other than that.

She can't live a normal life even if she wants to!!

When she thought that she was stuck in an awkward situation, a hand came to help her out from here.

" Stop dazing out and drink this if you're not going to eat anything. By the way, why aren't you eating anything?" Ye Yijun asked while handing her a glass of orange juice nonchalantly.

The music was loud as other people were dancing and the only place they could talk was in the corner.

He walked with Xu Nuan to the corner to talk. Even he was feeling uncomfortable seeing her stuck between all the girls and not speaking anything and staring at everyone in confusion.

She held the glass of juice and said while taking a sip of it, " I can't eat with strangers. I tend to get sick if I do."

He frowned at her. He thought that she was joking but she didn't look like she was.

He didn't probe further and added, " What about alcohol? This will help you to get along with them."

She sighed, " I want to drink too but I can't. I am not allowed to."

" Why? Who stopped you from drinking alcohol?"

She stared at him with a smile and sighed helplessly. When she didn't allow Han Zihao to accompany her to the party, he looked at her and instructed her strictly, " Even if you're attending a party, you're not allowed to touch alcohol when I am not around. Not even a glass or sip. Nothing!"

She gasped in horror and asked, " But why? It's a party. It's no fun without any alcohol." she whined but he was firm at his words.

'No means No!!'

He has seen her drunken behavior. She blanks out the next day after drinking till she loses her senses. How can he allow her to drink when he is not around after what she did to him?

After she kissed him, she didn't even remember anything. How can he believe her in this matter when he has seen her crazy drunken adventures?

-

While Xu Nuan and Ye Yijun were talking in the corner, Tan Hai, who was standing in the other corner of the room was enraged seeing them together and getting along well.

She rejected him when he was touching her as a friend. She made him feel humiliated for his 'friendly' touch.

After treating him like trash, she is going in the corner with other men, despite having a boyfriend.

She made him throw a party for her like this. And after making him spend money like this, she was ignoring him and seducing other men?

What a cheap girl!!

He gritted his teeth and emptied the whiskey glass that he was holding. There was a tray full of empty glasses on the side table near him.

" Xu Nuan, I will also see how long you can avoid me." He smirked before walking towards Xu Nuan.

His face was crimson due to the drinks that he had. He hiccuped and tried to maintain his balance as he approached Xu Nuan. He stood close to her and tapped on her shoulder, grazing his hand against her bare skin, " What are you talking about? I want to know too."

Xu Nuan was startled when he came out of nowhere and tapped her on the shoulder. Since she was wearing an off-shoulder dress, his hand directly came in contact with her skin.

She was not stupid either, that she won't understand the meaning behind his suggestive touch. She glared at him and frowned as he was reeking alcohol.

She glared at him and tried to control herself from making any scene. The words will not work on him since he is in no state to listen to her.

Ye Yijun saw Tan Hai leaning close to Xu Nuan and tried to push his face away from touching her,

"Tan Hai, You're drunk. Go and wash your face first."

He is drunk. There is no meaning to argue with him.

Xu Nuan didn't say anything and shook her head before walking away. However, before she could walk away, someone grasped her wrist tightly.

" Where are you going? I just came and you're leaving?" Tan Hai said while glaring at her. His smirk and suggestive tone gathered everyone's attention.

The music was stopped and everyone looked at them curiously, wondering what's going on between them.

" Tan Hai, leave her hand. You're not in your senses." Ye Yijun said while trying to make Tan Hai let her go.

" Aurora, did you see her smirk? She is looking down on me. She thinks I am a loser." He said while pointing at Xu Nuan.

Xu Nuan gave him a disgusted look and scoffed, " At least you know you're a loser. Leave my hand otherwise the consequences won't be good for you." she warned him.

However, he didn't loosen his grip on her hand. It was Ye Yijun, who had to use force to push him away and because of the force, he fell to the ground.

Everyone in the room gasped in horror seeing the scene escalating rather quickly.

Tan Hai glowered at Aurora, " Aurora, you're fighting with me for this BITCH?"

Xu Nuan raised her brows and folded her hands in front of her chest and said coldly, " If I am a bitch, then what you are? A loser? A loser who goes around hitting on girls and if they reject your advances, it suddenly bruises your ego?"

" I was a popular fresher a few days ago and just because I blocked your perverted advances, I became a cheap girl and a bitch? If this is what being a bitch is, then I am happy to be a bitch, You Loser!!" she said with a straight face before turning away to leave,

[ YOU BITCH!! WHAT DID YOU SAY?]

[ DO YOU WANT ME TO SHOW YOU WHO IS A LOSER HERE?]

Tan Hai stood up on his legs and picked up a wine bottle from the side table to throw at her. However, Ye Yijun came in between but couldn't stop him in time.

~THUD~

Xu Nuan, who had her back to Tan Hai, reflexively moved away and avoided the wine bottle which fell near her legs. The bottle broke into pieces only a few inches away from her.

If she had not reacted and stood there like a mannequin, she would have gotten hurt quite badly.

Ye Yijun was shocked to see that she barely avoided the bottle and punched Tan Hai on the face, [ Have you gone crazy? She almost got hurt because of you!!] He shouted.

" You hit me for this cheap girl? Do you think she will go with you after this? No!! She will find another target for her." He spouted nonsense while glaring at Xu Nuan with loathing.

Everyone was quiet as they were not sure what to do. They knew that Tan Hai was going too far but everyone was hesitating to interfere since his father is the Mayor of the district.

What can they do to him? Between Tan Hai and Xu Nuan, he will be the winning one in the end.

As everyone listened to Tan Hai's disgusting words for Xu Nuan, the door of the room was pushed open and two men entered.

Seeing the two men enter the room, who were dressed in formal suits and didn't look like they were part of the staff, everyone started to wonder about their identities.

Upon hearing the low whispers, Xu Nuan turned around and was surprised to see Han Zihao and Feng Sheng who were standing at the entrance of the room.

Her eyes widened in shock as she couldn't believe that he came.

Didn't he go back? What is he doing here?

She pursed her lips in embarrassment as she doesn't want him to know about all of this mess. She was so confident while coming to the party and this happened.

Seems like she is the type to invite trouble for herself.

-

Han Zihao's expressions turned grim to see Xu Nuan in the center while a crazy man was sitting on the ground and was spouting nonsense while pointing at her.

His eyes widened in shock to see the broken pieces of wine bottle near her legs. Without waiting for a minute, he walked to her in long strides and held her by shoulders.

He looked at her carefully to see any bruises and asked, " Are you hurt anywhere? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"

" I...I am fine. Absolutely fine!" She tries to assure him but he still looked worried about her.

[ Are you her new target? Xu Nuan, how many men do you want at a time?]

[ I don't mind others joining in. More, the merrier. Let's go!]

[I have a villa in the city. We can have fun there.] He babbled while trying to stand up but failed again.

Feng Sheng, who was standing behind Han Zihao, his mouth fell upon hearing the disgusting words for Xu Nuan. He carefully glanced at Han Zihao and gulped, " This man is done for!!"
