Current time...

Inside of a car, a gloomy-looking Xuan Mu sent a message to Bing Shi while gesturing for Mia to go ahead of him.

?Xuan Mu:? What is my Bing Shi doing?

?Bing Shi:?Packing up my luggage. You?

.....

Glad that his Bing Shi was online, Xuan Mu was quick to reply.

?Xuan Mu:? Going to a nightclub with lots of pretty girls.

?Bing Shi:?Have fun! (???)

?Xuan Mu:? You should be reprimanding me!

?Bing Shi:? Oh! Don’t buy alcohol for girls! Check their age before starting a conversation! These days you can’t tell if they are fifteen or twenty. Say hello to Mia

?Xuan Mu:?What about me? You don’t care about me at all! *cries in the corner*

?Bing Shi:? Say hello to Xuan Mu

His lips curled up.

?Xuan Mu:?Bing Shi!!!

?Bing Shi:? What? I can’t say don’t dance with girls, because you can’t dance anyway. ???

?Xuan Mu:? *laughs in the corner* Thanks for cheering me up! Goodnight, sleep well. *hugs*n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

?Bing Shi:?I’ll accompany you one day so you won’t have to be bored, haha! Good night *hugs back*

After their short conversation, Xuan Mu’s heart warmed up. He closed the door of his car and walked into a nightclub. Four people were waiting for him in front of the entrance, safeguarding him from all sides.

The three men bowed respectfully, “Good evening sir,”

“Good evening,” Xuan Mu bestowed them a light smile.

“Mr. Xuan Mu, please follow us to Mr. Nao’s room,” said a beautiful woman, who was in a gorgeous clubbing dress with slits up to her thighs on both sides; the top made out of a mesh material showed her brassiere. Taking the lead, she led him inside.

On the way to the VIP room, Xuan Mu observed his surroundings. The music was loud enough to cause one to go deaf as a few dancers moved their bodies with slow movements inside a cage.

The ball of light above shone its colors on his face, casting a dark shadow underneath his eyes. The three men encircled him in protection, not letting anybody go anywhere near their client, catching a few people’s attention in the process.

Too loud.

This place stunk.

Full of horny and drunk people.

No. He was never bringing his Bing Shi to such a dirty place.

“Mr. Xuan Mu, we’ve arrived,” the same woman informed.

“Thank you,” Xuan Mu opened the door to the room by himself, closing it right before their faces, he walked inside casually. His civil tone didn’t match his actions at all. He sat on the empty couch at the center of the room, entirely ignoring all the appealing women in their see-through nightgowns.

The scene in the club made him feel disgusted. This sight reached his limit.

“Mr. Xuan Mu, welcome to my... ” Mr. Nao didn’t even finish his sentence.

“All that are under twenty, get out.”

The whole room broke down in cold sweat. Mr. Nao gestured for the girls to leave. He couldn’t afford to anger this man. From twenty girls, fifteen left. Mia put a cup of tea on the table, walking behind Xuan Mu silently. This would be fast, she thought. Her boss didn’t like to waste time.

“You choose one for me, Mr. Nao.”

“I don’t dare,” said Mr. Nao timidly.

“I count to three,” warned Xuan Mu, his tone filled with authority.

“Y-You, go to Mr. Xuan, hurry!” Mr. Nao quickly pointed at a random girl, who promptly ran before the secretive, yet sexy man.

“Virgin?” Xuan Mu assessed her legs up towards her face, stopping on her eyes, waiting for her answer.

“Y-yes,” she lied bashfully, crossing her arms over her stomach.

“Out.”

“...” The girl looked helplessly at Mr. Nao, who showed her to go away.

In the end, only Mr. Nao, Mia, and Xuan Mu remained. No matter the answer, all girls were chased out, not having what he was looking for. Mia started to get nervous. Xuan Mu behaved differently from his usual self.

“This is not how you do business, Mr. Nao. If you want to get out of the underworld. First, change your mindset. Don’t use women as currency.”

“I’m sorry. Give me a second chance, please,” Mr. Nao kneeled, begging before Xuan Mu fearfully.

“Second, you wasted a lot of my time.”

“I’m sorry. It won’t happen again,” Mr. Nao got on all fours and bowed down.

“This second chance is going to cost you a lot, Mr. Nao.”

“Thank you, thank you,” Mr. Nao kept on bowing. For a second chance, Xuan Mu, this man, would demand to be treated as such, and if someone didn’t like it, well, they better get the hell out of his way.
