You should know, in this lawless zone, what's the most prevalent thing?
Many young girls, at such young ages, already look haggard and worn out like they are in their thirties or forties.
And they are all sick.
In their youth, they trade their beauty for vast amounts of money.
But when they age and lose their charm...
Some even end up in the civilian cave.
If Beauty had not met Horses' Fortune.
Perhaps, that would have been the portrait of her future life.
Where would she be now in all her glory?
Managing a huge bar, being called a goddess by people.
Many men, just to have a drink with her, dare to challenge her trilogy of time.
Hearing the tale of the bar owner, Su Chen also felt sentimental.
He was not unaware of Jin San's situation.
On the contrary, he was quite aware.
He had previously come here on a mission.
This place is Heaven of sins.
Those girls, they could have led normal lives too.
But once they got involved with that stuff.
There was no turning back...
Because a normal job simply couldn't sustain such consumption.
Su Chen detests drugs.
While talking, the bar owner unexpectedly leaned on Su Chen's shoulder and fell asleep.
Her breathing became smooth, her face wearing a faint smile.
The bar owner often smiled.
She would smile at everyone she met.
But Su Chen knew, that smile wasn't from the heart.
It was more like a professional smile.
But the smile the bar owner showed at this moment.
Was so genuine, so serene.
Perhaps at this moment, Beauty finally found peace.
In front of a man she barely knew, from a different country, she showed such a genuine side.
Even though Horses' Fortune had always protected her.
Sooner or later, she would be sent away.
She had been preparing for it for many years.
And today, the day had finally come.
She was given to Su Chen.
Yet this man did not touch her.
He just said she could stay in his room for the night.
She knew, Su Chen did this only to allow her to have an explanation to go back to Horses' Fortune.
He could have easily taken her, yet he acted like a gentleman.
The feeling of leaning on Su Chen's chest.
Made Beauty feel extremely safe and tranquil.
It even gave her the sensation of being in love.
Of course, this wasn't love.
It was just after experiencing so much noise, seeing so much darkness, she finally found a momentary peace.
She could sleep peacefully.
Without worrying that while she slept, she would be devoured to the bones.
To use a Huaxia's term.
That is, a true gentleman.
Is Su Chen a gentleman?
From a certain angle, he is not.
A gentleman would not be so affectionate.
He suddenly felt some regret.
Regretting why he had to be a gentleman?
A woman like Beauty, he might meet again, he might not ever again.
He couldn't bring himself to desecrate.
But not desecrating, in itself, is a desecration.
But at this moment, Beauty was already leaning on him asleep.
So peaceful, so tranquil.
He couldn't bear to wake her...
This state lasted until midnight when Beauty finally woke up.
"Sorry, sorry, I fell asleep..." Beauty's sleepy face showed a hint of guilt.
"It's okay, go back to sleep for a while," Su Chen nodded at Beauty, his face showing no blame.
"Hmm." Beauty was still a bit groggy
Su Chen sighed lightly.
Some things, don't necessarily have to be complete by taking the final step.
That bit of regret, that bit of imperfection.
Often makes it more memorable.
That peaceful night, that man who treated her with great respect.
Just like that, stayed by her bedside, the entire night.
The next morning, Horses' Fortune appeared in the mansion.
Seeing Beauty still sound asleep, a smile appeared on his lips.
Just as he was about to speak, Su Chen made a shushing gesture, whispering, "Let's talk outside, don't wake her, she didn't sleep well last night."
Horses' Fortune gave a knowing, understanding look.
