"Speak of the devil," Louis murmured. Though his voice was low, everyone could hear him.
Louis couldn't recognize Xue Lin at first. If it wasn't for her pair of grey eyes and her body size, he would have thought that it was another person.
"Hello boys, I'm a temporary host of this host club. My name is Mo Xuan. It's an honor to meet the excellent hosts. Please guide me well." Xue Lin bowed after introducing herself to everyone. Her voice was cheerful and energetic.
"…" The hosts were speechless. 'That's no dude. It's a middle schooler!' That's all they were thinking.
They didn't think that they would meet a happy-go-lucky, down to earth brat rather than a gigolo. Seeing this exciting little man, all the negative thoughts about her swept away like a summer breeze.
She looked so natural that Louis started to have a second thought that she might not be the person he was going to challenge. He pondered, 'Did she hire a dude? That cannot happen or Chen would have told me.'
Rudy stood up and walked forward. He stood right in front of her and asked, "So you are the one who is going to compete against Louis?"
"That's right. That was the plan." Mo Xuan aka Xue Lin's gaze landed on Louis. "Are you having a second thought?"
Her mocking question fired up Louis. He stood up and said, "That can never happen! We will compete. I hope you will give me two billion US dollars after you lose."
"If that's what you wish," Mo Xuan aka Xue Lin shrugged.
William came closer to Louis and whispered, "Say, do you guys have bad blood or something? He doesn't seem bad but look at you, he looked like he was enjoying making you angry."
Louis asked, "Do I look like I would approach a guy like him?"
William gave it a serious thought. "That makes sense. Then, did you sleep with his mother or sister? Or maybe it's his girlfriend?
"You!" Louis glared at him.
'Just what type of person people think I am?'
Louis didn't know the answer.
"I'm Rudy, the number one host and the leader of the host club. It's a pleasure to meet you." Rudy reached out and shook hands with Xue Lin. He suddenly paused and looked at their joined hands.
"Is there something wrong?" Xue Lin asked.
Rudy collected himself and shook his head. "Not at all. Mo Xuan, welcome to our host club. Starting from today, you are one of us. If you need any help, you can always ask us."
"Thank you very much," Xue Lin let go of his hand.
Afterward, Jude, Alex, Nash, Lucas, and William all introduced themselves to her. Xue Lin didn't shake hands with them. She only bro-fist with them.
Rudy strode back to his seat and sat down. He looked at Louis and said, "If you lose to this brat, you should neither step this host club nor should you first with another girl."
"What do you mean?" Louis looked at him blankly.
'This guy… is he really oblivious?' Rudy gave a weird look and then sighed. "It's nothing. Good luck with your competition."
Louis looked at Xue Lin. The hosts gathered around her and they were asking her many questions.
William asked, "So, what's your real name, Mo Xuan?" He offered her a glass of mango juice as she requested.
Xue Lin took the glass and said, "Isn't using your real name forbidden here? That's the reason you guys are using pseudonyms. Isn't that right?"
"Then you know the rules," Nash looked at her.
"I do," Xue Lin answered. "I've told by this damn womanizer over there last night." She pointed at Louis who was drinking with Rudy.
"Damn womanizer?!" William burst into laughter.
"What about you? Aren't you of his kind as well?" Alex finally spoke.
Xue Lin said, "We are different. He only sleeps around because he cannot keep it in his pants. He is doing it for himself without caring much about the girls and hurting them. Later, shut their mouths with money. If virginity is something that could be bought by money, then it only means if the girl wants her virginity back, the man who took it can give it back to her, right? If the man is unable to give it back to her, it only means it cannot be bought by money."
"That's the very reason all men should respect women and should play with a woman's chastity," she concluded.
Alex asked her back, "What about the girls who want to give their bodies to him? It's not his fault to sleep with her. He can do it because the girls are willing." He thought this brat in front of him was naïve who knew nothing about the world.
Xue Lin relaxed on the couch. "Then are you saying that if a beautiful girl is single and men want to be with her, she should sleep with them as well?"
William said, "How can that be?"
Lucan and Nash looked at Xue Lin with interest.
Xue Lin nodded. "That's right. She will be called sl*t. Are you going to say that this damn womanizer should be called sl*t too? After all, he is no different than the rich beautiful girl."
Xue Lin paused before continuing, "What I'm trying to say is, just because several guys want a girl, it doesn't mean she should sleep with them and let them have their ways with her and then throw them away once they are no longer useful. If she does that, it makes her nothing more than a monster."
She added, "In the same way, just because several girls want a man, it doesn't mean that the guy should take them all and they throw them away without taking responsibility if taking their virginity. He shouldn't take responsibility for so many girls either. It's just so wrong. It'll mess up everything. That damn womanizer should also follow it."
"The big difference between him and me is he breaks women's hearts and I show those heartbroken women a path where they can lead a happy life."
