"He may not be in a good mood, but the woman Secretary Song rewarded with a yellow croaker is still untouched. What do you think he'll think when he finds out that Fuyixing's men pushed her to Brothel when he's in the mood later?" Golden-Tooth Lei glanced at Gao Lao Cheng and said irritably.
"Now?"
Golden-Tooth Lei walked towards the stairs, cursing under his breath. "Damn it! What else can I do? I'll go wait at the dock now. I can't have women brought onto the ship and come to see me first, instead of Secretary Song! Let whoever wants to be the boss fight now! If this happens a few more times, I don't know if I'll even live to be sixty! I'll be scared to death!"
As night falls, in Kowloon, near the intersection of Argyle Street and Luminous Road, there is a tenement building with a sign that reads "Flower Arrangement Apartment".
Outside the building, two alluring women in revealing clothing leaned against the Wind-and-Rain Corridor, casting flirtatious glances at men passing by on the street.
The garish floral cheongsam had a slit on the left hem that almost reached the top of her thigh. Standing sideways, her pair of fair, beautiful legs appeared even more alluring under the streetlights, causing passing men to pause and drool. The two women were unfazed by the greedy gazes of the men. When they noticed someone staring at them, they would deliberately puff out their breasts or bend one leg, beckoning a man with a flirtatious gesture. These subtle actions added to their captivating charm.
Many men lingered their eyes on the woman for a while, and then a young man would approach them and try to persuade them to come. If a man was convinced by the young man's persuasion and they agreed on a price, he would immediately follow the woman at the door into the Flower Arrangement Apartment.
Clearly, this Flower Arrangement Apartment is more than just the word "apartment" on its signboard.
At this moment, in the office on the second floor of the Flower Arrangement Apartment, Fuyixing Red Pole and Rat Xiang, sat behind his desk, his two hairy legs propped up on the table and shaking incessantly. He leered at Meng Wanqing and said, "Miss Wanqing, I am the fairest person and never make things difficult for customers who borrow money in times of emergency. You were the one who said you would pay off your brother Ah Hing's debt. I didn't force you, but you've changed your mind today?"
Having just changed into her cheongsam and before she could even go to the Flower boat for her turn, Meng Wanqing, a mature woman summoned by her younger brother and Fuyixing's men, bit her lip, trying to suppress her fear, and said expressionlessly, "It's true that I've helped him pay off debts a few times, but I never said I would pay off all his debts."
"Wow, how can you say such heartless things? He's your new brother. I treat that bastard Ah Hing better than you treat him. A few times when he couldn't resist his craving for cigarettes, I let him smoke a few for free to relieve his craving. Miss Wanqing, if you hadn't helped him pay off his debts, how could I have lent him money again? Of course, it's because of you, but now you're saying this... tsk tsk, fine, how about this, you pay this month's interest for him, and next time I definitely won't bother you again, I'll just break his arms and legs and send the money to his family. Miss Wanqing works as a hostess at the Taibai Seafood Restaurant, earning tens or hundreds of dollars every night, one month's interest is nothing, it'll be enough for me to barely cover the cost of the sessions." Rat Xiang stared boldly at Meng Wanqing's long legs exposed by the slit of her cheongsam, picking at his toes as he spoke.
Meng Wanqing was completely unfazed by the implicit threat to her parents in Rat Xiang's words. She turned to leave, saying, "He can pay his debts himself. Whether he breaks his arms and legs or drowns in the sea, it's none of my business. I don't have the money to pay the interest either."
The two Rat Xiang guarding the door immediately stepped forward and blocked the entrance. Rat Xiang chuckled from behind and cursed, "Damn you! If it weren't for your good-for-nothing brother saying you've never been touched by a man, I wouldn't bother with a cheap woman like you. These past two days, Fuyixing Boss been hanging around with Golden-Tooth Lei Big Water Pipe, getting a lot of gangsters to help him. My Big Brother is very unhappy and furious, wanting to vent his anger. He doesn't like those clueless young girls; he just wants a woman who's charming and hasn't been touched by a man before. That's why this good thing happened to you. When my Big Brother comes over, you go to his room and keep him company for the night. I'll deduct one month's interest from the debt your brother owes."
Meng Wanqing tried to push away the two people blocking the doorway, but as a woman, she was no match for them. She turned and glared hatefully at Rat Xiang: "The Kowloon City Police Station is right next door, I..."
"My Brothel is right next to the Kowloon City Police Station. Lots of cops come here. If you want to call the police, you don't need to go to the station. Maybe one of my rooms is serving my business right now. Do you want me to notify them for you?" Rat Xiang Cheung laughed heartily. "After my Big Brother visits your place, I'm interested in testing your skills. Last time you used a yellow croaker to pay the debt, and I thought you'd hooked up with some Big Brother's mood."
Two of Rat Xiang's henchmen dragged Meng Wanqing away. Meng Wanqing struggled and kicked, but couldn't break free. In her despair, she couldn't help but think of the young man who stood against the wind on the third floor of the Taibai Seafood Restaurant. It was he who had given her gold bars that saved her once. But this time, she probably couldn't escape it again.
Where is that young man now? If I had known I was going to be violated today, I might as well have spent the night with him.
"You've stirred a woman's heart, yet you never show your face again. I hate you so much." Knowing she had no hope of escaping today, Meng Wanqing gave up struggling. Only a sad smile appeared on her cold and beautiful face as she uttered those words.
No sooner had Meng Wanqing finished speaking than the door was kicked open from the outside, and five or six plainclothes officers with guns rushed in, subduing the two people holding her. Two of the officers even had their guns pointed at the still-dazed Rat Xiang!
Finally, a young man walked in, his face showing signs of exhaustion, yet he was still impeccably dressed in a suit, exuding elegance. With a smile in his eyes, he asked Meng Wanqing, whose once aloof demeanor had vanished, replaced by a mixture of surprise and delight on her pretty face.
"Girl, did you just say you hated me to death?"
Chapter 181 Timing
"There are so many beautiful women on the ship, why don't you pick one to have a few drinks with?" Chu Xiaoxin said to Song Tianyao, who looked so sleepy he could barely keep his eyes open, while groping the two Songstress beside him. "It's not even midnight yet, and you're already going back to the hotel to sleep? What a waste of precious time!"
