Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 316 Spring



The lonesome night carries on with the trickling rain. Inside a popular nightclub called Spring, the good vibe flows like a drug, but a good one. Men and women enter through the entrance upstairs as a crowd gathers around the dance floor and bar downstairs.

The loud music playing in the background brings the crowd higher and higher like adrenaline to the heart. Everyone moves like puppets on the dance floor.

Amongst the gathered crowd, two men sat at the bar with drinks in their hands. Both men were eye catching, but oblivious to the women giving them glances, yet afraid to talk to them.

One looks like a pretty boy while the other looks like a bad boy. Each man facing the opposite direction of one another.

Pretty boy faces the dance floor and nod his head in rhythm to the loud music.

"It's so packed with beauties tonight!!"

Watching the ladies dance, he couldn't help but exclaims excitedly. His posture is barely standing yet, the excitement of the nightclub made him happy.

Bad boy with his back turned to the dance floor looks at the half drunk pretty boy. His expression was complex for a long minute before he also downs his drink. Pretty boy had only 2 mix drinks and yet, he's already drunk.

Setting the empty glass down, he slightly turns to the man.

"Xu Long, are you sure you've been here before?"

That's right, pretty boy and bad boy are none other than Xu Long and Lin Hui.

Xu Long, who is beaming with excitement thought about Lin Hui's words. In a half drunken state of mind, he flung his head at the man and grin.

"Heh. I've never been to a nightclub. I only heard about this place from men of Wolf Team."

"….."

The corners of Lin Hui's lip twitch uncontrollably. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this moment. He scratches his forehead and wave his hand to get a bartender's attention.

"Bartender! Can we get two of your strongest liquor!"

After confirming there were no more enemy lurking in the dark around Jade Condos, both men came to Spring for a few drinks. Of course, Xu Long had to change out of his tactical attire before coming here, but that's not the point.

The point is, while they were on their way here, Xu Long bragged about the nightclub like he's been to it countless times. He even mentioned that the people who come here are from prominent families.

Thinking this, Lin Hui looks at pretty boy next to him and he shook his head.

Who would have thought everything Xu Long told him were based on experiences told by others.

"Here you go. Two shots of our finest liquor."

A bartender spoke as he hands two shot glasses to Lin Hui, then proceed in assisting others.

Lin Hui looks down at the two shots and he takes a deep breath. He hands one to Xu Long and turn to face the dance floor.

"Since were here, mind as well enjoy out time."

He clanks his shot glass with Xu Long's and tilt his head back to drink the liquor.

At the same time, Xu Long does the same thing and set his shot glass down when finished. A wide grin curls on his lip and he put one arm over Lin Hui's shoulder. Lifting his other arm to the sky, he exclaims.

"Wahh-hooo—!! Let's part-tay—!"

Both men walk away from the bar and made their way towards the dance floor.

The night is still young for single men like them.

Suddenly, Xu Long stops in his steps. Due to the alcohol he consumed, he had the urgent need to take a leak. He taps Lin Hui on the shoulder and grin apologetically.

"Bro…. I need to go use the bathroom.."

"…."

Lin Hui was dumbfounded. He stares at the grown man with heavy eyelids. They had just stepped onto the dance floor and now he says he needs to take a leak?

He sighs and point upstairs.

"The restroom is up there. I'll wait for you down here."

In a half drunken state, Xu Long pout his lower lip and gives Lin Hui a tearful puppy look.

"I'm scared… What if I get lost? Who will save me?"

"….."

This time, Lin Hui was more dumbfounded than he ever was. He wish so badly to cry but lack any tears to shed. So much for praising the man for being worthy of the King of Hell's assistant.

Even he cannot understand how Lu Tian deals with a grown man with a child's brain.

He pinches the space between his brows and waves his hand in frustration.

"Fine! Go. Go. I'll go with you. Sheesh!"

"Hehe."

Xu Long happily giggles and turns around. He didn't care about the annoyance he was causing and heads for the stairs.

No choice but to follow, Lin Hui curse inside. He cannot believe he has to babysit a fully-grown man instead of enjoying his young night at Spring.

Climbing up the stairs, both men heads through the hallway towards the restroom. However, two turns away, Lin Hui stops in his steps.

"I'll wait here for you."

He does plan to go inside the men's restroom with Xu Long. Who knows what the man will ask when inside. Xu Long might even ask for help to aim correctly in the urinal and that's something he does not want to do or see!

Xu Long leans against the wall for support. He narrows his eyes at Lin Hui for a good minute, then he points his index finger and drunkenly grins.

"You better not go anywhere, or I'll cry that you abandoned me."

"…."

Lin Hui was once again struck dumbfounded. He blinks his eyes a few times and reach into his jacket for a cigarette.

"Yea, yea. Go before I really do abandon you."

As he put the cigarette in his mouth and lights it, Xu Long continues to the restroom. However, taking a few steps, he reaches inside his pocket and takes something out. He waves the item with his index finger and drunkenly laughs as the item jingles.

"Hehe, you can't leave me here. I have the keys!"

"….."

The lighter had yet to touch the cigarette when Lin Hui hears the jingling sound of keys. His head abruptly turns to the man and he pat himself down. As he did so, he froze when he remembers something and sighs in frustration.

"Ahh… Why didn't I drive here…"

He scratches his head and lights the cigarette. He swears inside to never go with Xu Long to a nightclub again.

Oblivious and not carrying about Lin Hui's feelings, Xu Long stumble his way to the restroom. Even though he is half drunk, he can still control his brain to work properly when needed.

He reaches the men's restroom and his eyes narrow to read the sign. After all, he does not want to go into the lady's restroom.

Confirming that it is the restroom for men, he pushes the door open and enter.

Being the only person inside, he walks over to the urinal and unzip his pant. Feeling a little lightheaded, he presses one hand on the wall and close his eyes as he releases his leak.

"Stop! Let me go!"

Suddenly, his brows furrow when he hears a woman's voice. His head is pounding like crazy, so why is there a woman inside the men's restroom.

As he finishes, he open his eyes, zips up his pant and proceed towards the sink to wash his hands.

"Stop! I said let me go! I don't want to go with you!"

And there it was again. The same woman's voice. His head tilt to the side and he finishes washing his hand then reach for a towel.

"Stop! We're already over! I don't want to go with you!"

"Shut up! You better listen or I'm going to beat you up again!"

Just when Xu Long toss the towel away, he hears the woman's voice again, then a man. He is not one to get involve in other people's matters, but when he heard the man say 'beat up', his eyes dimmed murderously.

He cannot stand men who abuse women.

He angrily flung the door open and stomps out of the restroom.

His head turns in the direction of the two voices and he squint his eyes. Due to him being half drunk, he could only make out two blurry figures heading towards the back.

"Hey!!"

He drunkenly roars out after them and staggers his way to them. He lifts his arm and points his not so straight finger at the man.

"She said she doesn't want to go with you!"

Hearing him, the man who was dragging the woman stops and turn to glare at Xu Long.

"Mind your own business. This is between my girlfriend and I!"

"Ex."

The woman sighed in relief when she saw Xu Long, but when she heard the man's words, she angrily corrected him. At the same time, she is trying to pull her captive hand from the man's grasp.

"Shut up! It's over when I say it is!"

The man lashes out at the woman. She is the first woman to ever break up with him in public and humiliate him in front of all his friends.

Remembering the humiliation, blood boils inside him. He ignores Xu Long's presence and lift his other hand to slap the woman.

Seeing the hand coming down on her face, the woman shut her eyes tightly and use her other arm for protection. Every time he beats her up, it would leave dark bruises. Afraid her family would see the bruises, she would hide herself inside for a few days before going out.

With her eyes tightly shut, she prepares herself for the slap. At the same time, she felt a tug on her captive hand, but didn't think much and counted to herself.

1…. 2…. 3…. 4…. Eh?

Did he slap her so hard that she died?

Where is the usual pain that came after the slap?

Confused, she slowly opens her eyes one and a time. However, what she saw dumbfounded her. It was not the man standing in front of her, but Xu Long.

She furrows her brows and slowly looks down. Her eyes widen and gasps before covering her mouth.

The man who always takes his anger out on her is now lying on the floor like a dead man!

Xu Long tilt his head with eyes blinking and he looks at the man he just jumped kicked. He then looks back at the woman as he touch the tip of nose with his thumb like Bruce Lee and grin with his eyes close.

"A wise man should never hurt a woman."

Suddenly, just when his last word fell, the sound of footsteps storm in the distance as someone shouts.

"Hey! What the fuck are you doing?!!"
