Chapter Forty-Eight: The Meeting Pass
Page 1/3
"Alright, Little White Brother, I’ll take my leave first. I’ll come by again later." Hei Yu Yi paused for a moment, startled as the enchanting woman approached him with flirtatious eyes. Her alluring phoenix-shaped eyes were full of seduction, and she wore a revealing outfit that exposed half of her bosom, flirting with Little White Brother while simultaneously "tempting" him.
Hei Yu Yi had no fondness for such women. Just last night, in some shadowy corners, he had seen clearly that the hostesses in this bar were not merely there to keep company. Their faces were heavily made-up, and under the dim lighting of the nightclub, who could say how they looked without makeup?
Helplessly seeing how close she seemed to be with Little White Brother, Hei Yu Yi feigned ignorance of the meaning behind her seductive glances. He turned to Little White Brother, said a quick word, smiled politely at the enchanting woman to acknowledge her, then briskly walked away.
"Little White, when did you bring such a handsome guy here?" The seductive woman smiled slyly as she watched Hei Yu Yi’s hurried retreat, then reached out to pat Little White Brother’s right shoulder.
"Yesterday. He came here on his own." Little White Brother kept his head lowered, fiddling with the corners of his eyes in the mirror, trying to smooth away the faint crow’s feet.
"Came on his own?" The woman was puzzled. Hei Yu Yi didn’t seem that old, and without a middleman’s introduction, how did he decide to become a bodyguard here? Working here meant you were already on board. Usually, internal staff recruited new members, or some young people, after watching certain films, were attracted to the life of wielding knives and sticks and were introduced through middlemen. Self-recommendations to be a "bodyguard" were extremely rare. Even if one volunteered, the place might not accept them. Without a middleman’s introduction, joining increased the risk of being a mole.
"Yes, but he didn’t come to apply as a bodyguard at first." Little White Brother lifted his head from the bar, blinking at the woman with a hint of ambiguity.
"Oh? Then what did he apply for at first? Waiter?" The woman raised her eyebrows, looking at Little White Brother with her violet eyes.
"No, guess." Little White Brother smiled teasingly.
"Bartender?"
"Chef?"
"Manager?"
"What is it exactly? I’m too lazy to guess." The woman pouted irritably and lightly slapped Little White Brother’s "pretty" face. He had almost named every profession that matched Hei Yu Yi’s first impression to her—except one. Given Hei Yu Yi’s looks and aura, she was unwilling to believe he would take up that particular job.
"Don’t be mad, Rose Sister, actually, he applied to be a male host." Little White Brother bit his lip, covering his left cheek where the woman had just struck, sounding a bit aggrieved.
"Male host?" The enchanting woman, known as Rose Sister by Little White Brother, was momentarily stunned upon hearing the answer she had already guessed in her heart. HeiI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
