Ten o'clock in the evening.
Inside the bar, the music had reached its maximum volume, nearly deafening people. The intense metal and punk vibes of rock music exploded in the air, like sizzling flashes of lightning. The noisy crowd twisted their waists and hips on the dance floor, their movements and gazes provocative.
In the shadowy corner near the black marble bar.
Bai Xiao stood with his legs slightly apart, standing erect. His hands were placed in front of him, his right hand gripping his left wrist, left hand clenched into a fist, his face expressionless.
He didn't look like a security guard, but more like a bodyguard.
On the tables, the colorful lights were dizzying, in a world of flashy revelry. Men and women clinked their glasses, and the wailing songs reverberated. Some young people started speaking in nightclub slang, tearing tissues, grabbing fingers, or playing the King's Game and other interactive games. They indulged uninhibitedly in the ambiguous atmosphere.
Bai Xiao swept his gaze over the scene, confirmed there were no issues, and blandly withdrew his attention. He then refocused on his professional panel.
[Your profession "Security Guard" has gained +2 experience]
[Your profession "Security Guard" has risen to LV.2]
[Profession: Security Guard LV.2 (1/200)]
(Extractable)
Success!
And below the profession, a familiar extractable tag appeared.
Bai Xiao glanced at the dark red (Extractable) without hesitation and confirmed. Instantly, the professional panel blurred and flickered faintly.
The next second, everything became clear.
[Dark Red Modifier]
[Potential Points: 2]
Two potential points in hand, it was time to allocate points again.
Almost simultaneously.
Under the Fighter profession, a tag appeared beside the Jujutsu skill.
[Skill 3: Intro to Jujutsu (23/100)]+
Bai Xiao took a deep breath, feeling a faint joy in his heart.
One potential point could add fifty experience, two points a hundred. Jujutsu could only be upgraded; as for Sandboxing and boxing, they still needed a lot more. He thought that unless in special cases, he should upgrade as much as he could in the short term and grab tangible strength first.
Bai Xiao came back to his senses, and glanced down at his chest.
"This security guard uniform is getting a bit too tight..."
Due to the rapid advancement of his physical attributes, his muscles and physique had developed dramatically. The bar security uniform, which had fit well and even a bit loosely before, was now quite tight, accentuating his physique.
Bulging chest muscles, broad shoulders, arms filled with a sense of power. His prominent inverted triangle figure stretched the entire uniform tight.
Compared with some other security guards of normal build, he stood out conspicuously.
At the Sakura Bird Bar tables, glances occasionally swept over the corner where Bai Xiao stood, carrying an inexplicable meaning. Most of these gazes were from women, with one or two even from men, quite unsettling.
But Bai Xiao didn't seem to mind much.
He continued to work expressionlessly.
Not far away, at a table where several attractive girls were gathered, they were playing the King's Game. The general rule was that the King's command was absolute, and participants had to unconditionally obey the King's orders. Whoever was lucky enough to become the King could issue a random command to someone to do anything.
Similar to Truth or Dare.
"Hehe, I am the King!"
A girl with short hair and black lipstick showed the ghost card joker in her hand. Her fingers sparkled with shiny nail polish, glinting faintly.
"So, now..."
The short-haired girl's eyes moved, her thick eyelashes fluttering, a sly look aimed at Bai Xiao in the corner, "I command, the three of spades, go flirt with that handsome security guard next to the bar. You have to get some contact information."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone showed their cards, and a beautiful girl in a black bodycon miniskirt got caught—she was the three of spades. Suddenly, the surrounding crowd burst into a commotion, with snickers and laughter creating a lively atmosphere.
The miniskirt girl was straightforward and generous, obviously used to playing and not easily embarrassed. She stood up and walked towards the bar.
As she drew closer, the miniskirt girl could see the tall and straight figure of the young man with black hair, his expression meticulous, eyes staring straight ahead, conveying a sense of seriousness and focus. Because he was in the shadows, with only some of the lights illuminating him, they cast dark shadows on his brow bone and jawline.
It gave him a rare, rugged, and tough demeanor.
How to put it? The miniskirt girl had seen many handsome men, like puppy dogs and big bad wolves, tall guys with white socks, and rough-looking bad boys.
But she had never seen someone like the one before her.
"Hello there, handsome."
The miniskirt girl approached Bai Xiao and greeted him with a smile. The black tattoo, winding around her fair-skinned neck like a begonia flower, created a striking contrast. As the colorful lights flickered by, it somehow appeared even more enchanting.
"The restroom is on the left."
Bai Xiao turned his head and, after a brief eye contact with the girl, seriously reminded her.
"Uh..."
The seductive smile on the miniskirt girl's face faltered for a moment, nearly causing her to lose her composure.
But she quickly recovered, leaning slightly forward to reveal a glimpse of her snowy cleavage. She lifted her lightly made-up face with a smile.
"You're so handsome. Can I add you on Fetion?"
The miniskirt girl shot straight to the point. She knew that with her attractive appearance and figure, coupled with her bold compliments, most handsome guys would instantly take a liking to her and respond positively.
But today, it seemed she had miscalculated.
"I don't really use Fetion."
The young man before her pondered for a moment and then replied indifferently.
"Okay, what about YY then?"
The girl's beautiful eyes sparkled as she gazed at Bai Xiao.
"I don't use that much either."
Bai Xiao continued to reply.
The miniskirt girl hesitated and looked up, but Bai Xiao's expression didn't change. Moreover, he seemed to be in serious thought, and it didn't look like he was just joking with her. The miniskirt girl gritted her teeth and asked one last question.
"What about your phone number then? That should be okay, right?"
Bai Xiao glanced at her and nodded, giving her his phone number.
The miniskirt girl saved it in her phone as "handsome security guard," followed by Bai Xiao's number, and pressed save. She smiled happily.
"See you around, handsome."
The miniskirt girl threw him a flirtatious look, then returned to her booth.
Instantly, a group of girls at the booth erupted into giggles and cheers.
Meanwhile, in his corner, Bai Xiao remained as usual, scanning the crowd just like before, fulfilling his security inspection duties.
In the following hours, the night scene was nonstop excitement. Perhaps the DJ was exceptionally good that day because some female customers got completely drunk after dancing. Even one girl, after downing a strong drink at the bar, tried to get fresh with Bai Xiao, wanting to come over and feel his muscles.
In the end, her friends forcefully dragged her away.
In a place stirred up with hormones, anything could happen.
Guys should also protect themselves and not get teased by female hooligans.
