Shi Lu started to panic when Azure Dragon showed up with his crew.
After He Hu and Li Shan indicated they'd protect her, she acted remorseful, pushed them aside, and threw herself at Azure Dragon's side, saying, "Azure Dragon, listen to my explanation, please. These two dragged me here insisting I drink with them; my loyalty to you is unwavering."
The lackeys behind Azure Dragon almost burst out laughing.
Shi Lu's reputation in this area was well-known: put nicely, she was a regular in nightclubs, soaking up the booze; bluntly, she was in the business of selling her company. However, her methods were more sophisticated; it wasn't a straightforward cash-for-services deal, but rather fishing for easy marks in clubs, where she could enjoy drinks without working, and if the night turned profitable, it would mean way more than just a few hundred yuan.
