"Get Jenny over here in a minute."

After leaving the booth, Four-Eyed Snake walked over to the side and beckoned to the underling called A-Ji. "And pick out a few of the best ones while you're at it. Make sure they take good care of Young Master Kuang and Young Master Zong."

A-Ji didn't answer right away. Instead, he looked troubled. "Snake Brother, you forgot. Jenny doesn't drink with customers anymore. She quit last time."

"She quit?"

Four-Eyed Snake pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one. Watching the ugly man dancing on the floor, he finally remembered. "You mean the cross-eyed guy dancing with her?"

"Yeah. Jenny spent months reeling that sucker in. Last time, she even had the brothers put on a whole act. The other day, he came by and paid off over two hundred thousand in loan-shark debt for her. I heard he had to borrow another two hundred thousand on short notice." A-Ji lowered his voice.

"Two hundred thousand?! Jenny's got a head on her shoulders. She wouldn't be so shortsighted." Four-Eyed Snake rubbed his chin. "The big spenders I introduced her to before were all worth tens of millions. And she really fell for a cross-eyed guy like that?!"

"It's different, boss." A-Ji lowered his voice again. "That cross-eyed guy's a stuntman. He makes good money and has been in plenty of movies. He knows people in the industry. If Jenny gets a connection through him, even making romance films could be a way forward. Besides, he might not have much cash on hand, but he's single and owns a thousand-square-foot flat. Jenny went to see it herself. She said men who are too rich are hard to hold on to, and someone like him is just right."

"A thousand-square-foot flat?!"
