Chu Lui took another glass of alcohol and drank it, mouth by mouth.
He was a regular here and was decked in branded goods and money, but he never allowed women to go near him. There were some dumb, foolish, and cocky ones who had been kicked by him thousands of times; and yet they still want to dream—just like the woman just now. Some women could not be touched, and of course, some men could not be either.
This was just a man who drank to drown his sorrows, and no one dared to make trouble for him. No matter how many times he had kicked the ladies here and indirectly broke countless items, no one dared to anger him.
No one dared, and no one would.
Just like now, a man who looked absolutely ruthless came over; and everyone around automatically avoided him. The man walked over in big steps and did not look around, but he could feel the fear and hatred the others had towards this man.
“Give me one.” The man sat down and told the bartender.
The bartender hurriedly made a glass for him, and yet his hands were shaking throughout the whole process.
Chu Lui extended his long legs, took the glass, and started swirling it gently. The light refracted through the glass and onto his cold face; he was still handsome with his distinct features, but now, they were covered by thick ice.
The man who was sitting opposite him also chugged half the glass and let the spiciness burn in his lungs.
“Chu Lui, you’ve broken many things here and beaten up many women. If this goes on, I’ll ask you to pay for them. You should know that my things here aren’t cheap.”
“Mm…” Chu Lui did not have much of an expression. “Send the bill to my office.”
“Forget it.” The man smiled and patted his shoulders. “Why should a man be worried that he doesn’t have a wife? Your wife just left with the girl; you can just find another one.”
“Will Brother San find another woman other than Shen Wei?”
Chu Lui asked lightly.
“No,” Brother San answered without hesitation, “I would probably die in her hands for the rest of my life.”
Chu Lui did not say anything else; neither did Brother San. This reflected a Chinese proverb really well: ‘don’t expect others to do what you can’t do yourself’.
Chu Lui pushed his glass forward. “Give me another glass.” The bartender speedily made another glass for him, and gas bubbles emerged from the drink. The drink was grayish-blue; who on earth would like this dark drink? However, Chu Lui loved it because the alcohol percentage was just right; he would not get drunk, but he could drink to his death.
He took the glass, but suddenly, his hand stopped. Inside the glass reflected the view of something white and thin.
He felt a pang in his heart, and there was a bitter feeling.
At this time, an elegant and beautiful woman walked over. Her hair was light brown and grown to her shoulders as she wore a simple long dress. Under the lighting, this white dress sparkled; and the fishtail design enhanced her thin body but showed off her long legs. Her body proportion was perfect. She smiled as her lips curved up slightly; she had a pair of clear eyes, distinct brows, and extinguished features that were pretty on their own and beautiful together. Of course, she exuded a vibe that made people feel comfortable; she was elegant and warm.
It was like the elegance of a lady from a prominent family; definitely not comparable to any woman from a small household and, of course, not any of the women here.
She did not look like she came out to sell her body; she came here to buy men.
She sat down, and her every movement under the lighting mesmerized people and stole their attention. At the end of her fishtail dress was a pair of high heels which made her toes stand out; each of them looked like grapes that had just been picked and was tempting people to bite them.
This time, a man was already enticed.
“Miss, are you alone?” Someone could not take it and went forward to pick her up.
The woman giggled and was kind of shy, which turned the man on even more. He could not control any longer. “You’re new, right? You haven’t been brought out much right? A virgin maybe?
“Let me take you out for a hundred thousand. What do you say?” The man’s eyes shone with interest.
A hundred thousand dollars was already very high; on average, ten or twenty thousand dollars could bring a girl out, but definitely not under ten thousand dollars. The people in Jiang Nan were not cheap and were not sold dirtily; the fee to bring them out had to be at least ten thousand dollars.
This man was very enticed by the woman’s smile; no one would dare to snatch the prey that he had his eyes on, and he wanted this woman for sure.
In the end—before the lady could even respond, his dishonest hand was already on the woman’s leg. Even though it was very thin, it was substantial; and her body was very soft. Perhaps he could try a few stunts.
The lady clearly noticed his movement, but she did not stop it. The man could not control his hand anymore; he wanted to reach into the woman’s shirt, rip all her clothes apart, pin her down, and battle for three hundred rounds.
The fire in his eyes burned, and he needed to unleash the demon between his legs. His hands moved upward and was going toward the woman’s thighs.
Suddenly—before he could react, he was pinned on the floor; and that hand was broken with a loud crack.
He cried bitterly and shouted for his mother from time to time.
After being scared for a while, the people started despising him. How old was he? How could he still ask for his mother? How embarrassing.
At this time, a man in black had a darkened face and was standing in front of the woman.
“Ruoxin…” The man’s voice was very hoarse.
“Ruoxin, is it you? Is it really you?”
Up till now, Chu Lui could not believe what he was seeing. This was Ruoxin, Xia Ruoxin. She came back. She finally came back. She was going to return to him, right?
His hand was shaking as he placed it on the woman’s white skin carefully. The woman was still smiling elegantly, naturally and also distantly at the same time.
“Do you want to bring me out?” The woman smiled and poked his chest.
“My price is not cheap.
“One million, once.”
As she finished her sentence, everyone else gasped. A million dollars? How dare she say and demand it?
Chu Lui’s mouth moved.
“Okay,” he agreed. Even if it was one million dollars or ten million, he would give her whatever she wants. Even though he did not know why she was at Jiang Nan, he would give her everything she wanted, let alone a mere million dollars.
