Chapter 1195: Chapter 748: Experiment in the Bar_2

Qin Ning, sitting opposite Chu Mo, fidgeted uncomfortably. She was only a few meters away in a straight line from Chu Mo, and it was precisely this closeness that made her feel extremely uneasy, even harboring a faint desire to flee deep in her heart.

Qin Ning was also aware that if she couldn’t overcome the fear in her heart, her future in the martial path would be halted at the level of an A-rank Martial Artist, with no further progress.

If before Qin Ning had taken pride in her strength as an A-rank Martial Artist, now, having truly witnessed countless top fighters, especially the likes of Wu Youyou, Qin Lan and Xue Yuluo before her, she realized that she was nothing but a frog in a well. If she didn’t continue to improve, she would never surpass these people – something Qin Ning’s pride simply couldn’t tolerate.

So, despite the intense restlessness and fear inside, she still clenched her teeth and lifted the glass in front of her, tilting her head back and downing it in one gulp.

The spicy taste in the glass made her face scrunch up in distress; after all, Qin Ning, who had only ever drunk fruit juices since she was young, had never touched alcohol. Drinking a glass all at once, she felt a burning sensation all over.

“So bitter!”

As Qin Ning lightly stuck out her tongue, nearby Tang Yi, as a man, naturally would not show weakness. He too picked up his glass and tilted his head back, pouring it down his throat.

After the two of them had downed a glass, Xue Yuluo promptly filled their second glasses to the brim, clearly intent on not letting them off easily that evening.

“Um… Can I eat something? It’s really hard to drink!”

While Qin Ning kept sticking out her tongue, Chu Mo across from her snapped his fingers lightly, and the attentive waiter who had been watching this side immediately stepped forward. With an air of ease, Chu Mo nonchalantly ordered:

“Bring some fruit plates, and whatever snacks you have in the kitchen, just bring them all out.”

Chu Mo’s table had ordered several Dragon Sets right upon arrival. Although Chu Mo didn’t regard the alcohol highly, the Dragon Set was still the priciest suite at 88,000, and the most expensive drink in the bar. Several Dragon Sets amounted to at least a few hundred thousand, so naturally, the waiter dared not neglect such a valued customer.

Soon, a group of waiters brought over fruit plates and snacks, and even considerately provided a heap of various beverages. After the waiters reluctantly withdrew, Qin Ning, who had eaten some fruit, lifted her head and downed the second glass.

The little girl, never having drunk before, flushed a captivating red across her beautiful face in no time, even her peach blossom eyes becoming increasingly hazy.

To Chu Mo’s slight delight, as Qin Ning got a bit drunk, her reaction to him seemed to diminish. Just a moment ago, she was trembling slightly because she was sitting opposite him, but now, due to the effects of alcohol, although she was a bit bleary-eyed, her body no longer exhibited the initial fear and trembling. To Chu Mo, this was indeed good news.

As for Tang Yi, the young man naturally had his own tenacity. Qin Ning had just finished her second glass, but the young man had already downed three in a row, and he began to sway from side to side.

At this moment, Xue Yuluo, who was equally excited by the effectiveness of this method, couldn’t contain her joy. She seemed to want to strike while the iron was hot. She immediately pulled Qin Ning to her side, fed her another glass, then supported her swaying body, step by step moving closer to Chu Mo.

Usually, Qin Ning would react within ten meters of Chu Mo, trembling all over when she came within five meters. But now, numbed by the alcohol, she stood at a four-meter distance from Chu Mo, her cheeks flushed and her eyes hazy, yet without any excessive reactions, as if unaffected by the inner fear.

Seeing victory within reach, Xue Yuluo immediately supported Qin Ning’s body and slowly advanced closer, three meters, two meters. When Qin Ning stood just one meter in front of Chu Mo, normally she would be shaking uncontrollably, even likely to fall into an inescapable state of fear. But now, under the influence of alcohol, she still showed no significant reaction.

Chu Mo breathed lightly at this moment, and then slowly stretched out his arm. As his fingers gently approached Qin Ning’s cheek, he could clearly feel her body start to tense up and her breathing become increasingly rapid.

Chu Mo slightly furrowed his brows, and in the end, his fingers paused at a distance of one centimeter from the other’s cheek, feeling in his heart that if he moved any closer, the other party would definitely rebound, or even explode.

Chu Mo gently shook his head, and just when he was about to give up, the person opposite, Xue Yuluo, suddenly said:

“Mr. Chu, since it has come to this point, we might as well take the experiment to the end!”

Chu Mo glanced at the woman in front of him, and it was clear that Miss Xue did not want to give up so easily. Breathing lightly and with no better solution, Chu Mo made up his mind. He looked at Qin Ning, who had already closed her eyes, and finally, his fingers moved forward again.

However, as Chu Mo’s fingers touched Qin Ning’s delicate cheek, her eyes suddenly widened in that very moment, and the confusion and drunkenness in her eyes were immediately replaced by fear. At the same time, seemingly triggered by something intense, she began to convulse all over and even started screaming.

As Chu Mo frowned, Xue Yuluo, by his side, gently exerted force, and in an instant, the fiercely struggling Xue Yuluo immediately fell limp and fainted.

With a soft sigh, Chu Mo knew that this method had ultimately failed too.

After Xue Yuluo helped the fainted Qin Ning to the sofa, Chu Mo gently picked up the wine glass in front of him, and the depressed in his heart, he tilted his head back and drained the glass.

If there really was no other way, he would have to tap into the power of the system to forcefully rid both individuals of the seeds of fear in their hearts, and if that were the case, Chu Mo would have to spend at least a thousand points of wealth value.

A single point of wealth value is equivalent to one hundred million in funds, a thousand points is equivalent to hundreds of billions in assets. It looks like he will need to reposition and reconstruct a hundred-billion conglomerate in a certain industry to recover the losses.

While Chu Mo was feeling dejected deep inside, at the entrance of the bar, suddenly a large group of young males and females appeared. Each one of them was handsome or beautiful, and every person was dressed in extraordinary fashion. As the crowd flocked into the bar, the servers immediately went up to greet them with enthusiasm.

This group of young men and women of high status didn’t linger in the bar hall but made their familiar way to the second-floor private rooms. However, when one of the young men inadvertently glanced in Chu Mo’s direction, and when he saw the stunning beauties at Chu Mo’s table, the young man immediately stopped in his tracks and then burst into excited laughter.

The group that had reached the stairway ready to go upstairs suddenly stopped, looking extraordinary. Over a dozen high-status young men and women all turned their gazes towards Chu Mo, their eyes naturally resting on the few women there.

“Mr. Chu, do you want me to take action?”

Tianya beside him bowed slightly and inquired. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn’t even be interested in taking a glance at these small fries, but now, with his status having changed, he was willing to lower himself.

However, before Chu Mo could even give an instruction, someone among the group on the other side seemed to mutter something lightly, and the previously excited group of youngsters immediately toned down their expressions, and then the group of second generation individuals simultaneously bowed to Chu Mo in admission of their error.

Obviously, this group of second generation individuals had already recognized Chu Mo’s identity.

And as this group led everyone to the second floor, among them, a handsome young man broke away from the crowd, stepping eagerly towards Chu Mo’s side.

“Mr. Chu, does the promise you made last time in Capital City still stand?”

The person appearing before him was none other than Liu Ping, the young master of the Liu family, the third-ranked family in Capital City.
