“Sweetie,” Ouyang Meihua called to Tian Jing with some worry.
Tian Jing winked at her, "Let's try another place. I don't believe all the KTVs in the capital will reject us."
Ouyang Meihua understood. She shook the money in her hand and said, "I don't believe ten thousand yuan can't be spent."
The elevator reached the first floor. Ouyang Meihua was still indignantly talking about the manager and the greeter looking down on them.
After walking quite a distance, Ouyang Meihua finally put the money into her pocket. "Where to now?"
"Back."
"Back?"
Tian Jing nodded, "Back to make a phone call, change clothes, and come back."
...
Meanwhile, at Jinmeigui KTV.
After the manager led several young men into a private room, he began probing them with various words.
The rowdy youth impatiently took out his phone, dialed, and shouted into it, "Ma Yiwen, get to Jinmeigui within half an hour, or we'll come and break your legs ourselves."
After hanging up, the rowdy youth grinned sinisterly at the manager, kicking his legs.
The manager smiled profusely, "My lords, please excuse me. I was being overcautious. When young Master Ma arrives, have him entertain you with some performances."
The rowdy youth remained silent.
A blue-haired youth waved at the manager, "Go and ask the hostesses to bring some snacks. Our Brother Yan likes them pure, understand?"
The manager nodded and backed out of the room, "My lords, please wait a moment."
As the manager retreated, a handsome young man with a ponytail spoke, "Brother Yan..."
The rowdy youth raised his hand, "When Ma Yiwen gets here, if he doesn't give me an explanation, we'll beat him to death together. How dare he lie to me?"
"Coming to this dump to play, and then being probed with all sorts of words. What do they take us for?"
The ponytail youth looked in the direction of the rowdy youth's finger, glancing at the lush green plants by the sofa.
He kicked over the green plant, "What is this crap? Is it in the way? Can't you see we're crowded?"
"Speaking of which, this Jinmeigui isn't that great either. The rooms are so small. How will the hostesses have room to move around when they come in?"
"Heh heh." The rowdy youth sneered, "That's why I said we'll beat that brat Ma Yiwen later."
"Exactly!" A white-haired youth clenched his fist. "After we beat him, we'll make him take us to a truly fun place. This dump is really boring."
"Right," a yellow-haired youth chimed in. "Ma Yiwen has to pay for all our expenses tonight."
"Impossible," the white-haired youth said lewdly. "The expenses for just the few of us for one night wouldn't be enough for Ma Yiwen's year's allowance. Are we going to make him work as a gigolo here? With his weak body, how many times can he satisfy us?"
"Hahaha." The youths burst into laughter.
In the monitoring room, the manager watched the inverted image on the screen and listened to their laughter. He waved to the person beside him, "Tell the new arrivals to serve the fruit platter."
The person hesitated and asked, "Including the one from today?"
The manager turned to him, "A Hao, A Long has already told the boss everything truthfully. Although the boss didn't say anything, his expression was very grim."
"A Long represents the boss. Are you disrespecting the boss?"
A Hao shivered and took a step back, "Manager, I won't dare again. Please beg the boss for me."
"Hmph!" The manager snorted heavily. "Go. Anyone within the last six months is a newcomer."
"Yes!"
...
More than ten minutes later, a thin young man entered Jinmeigui, wiping sweat from his brow with a handkerchief.
He was led by a hostess into the room of the rowdy youth and his companions.
Seeing the rowdy youth and his group, the young man's sweat poured down even more.
The rowdy youth leaned back on the sofa lazily, "Ma Yiwen, tonight's entertainment is all up to you."
"Yes, yes, yes." Ma Yiwen wiped his sweat and trembled, "Young Master Yan, what are your thoughts?"
"Nonsense!" The white-haired youth berated. "Of course, it's something that will stimulate Brother Yan! Don't you know Brother Yan he... Ah? I'm going to die, why are you hitting me?"
The white-haired youth glared at the yellow-haired youth who had hit him on the head.
The yellow-haired youth winked at him, then secretly pointed at the rowdy youth.
Seeing the rowdy youth's devilishly charming and unrestrained smile, the white-haired youth immediately shrank his neck.
"Brother Yan, I, I was just worried about you! You don't want to go to the hospital, and you don't want to see a private doctor. I thought maybe stimulating you would help."
The rowdy youth suddenly stood up and slapped him, his face so dark it could drip rain.
After the white-haired youth was knocked down, the rowdy youth kicked him several more times, a murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
The white-haired youth curled up, covering his head, and begged for mercy, "Brother Yan, Brother Yan, I'll never dare again. Please spare me."
The other youths, though timid, mustered their courage and stepped forward to persuade, "Brother Yan, Brother Yan, Haizi was just thinking of you. We are all brothers here, and no one will say anything."
The rowdy youth looked up abruptly at Ma Yiwen.
Ma Yiwen repeatedly waved his hands, "I didn't hear anything, didn't hear anything."
Only then did the rowdy youth retract his anger. He took a comb from his pocket, tidied his disheveled hair, and sat back on the sofa. He said to the white-haired youth on the ground, "Get up."
"Thank you, Brother Yan." The white-haired youth slowly got up, his lips, face, and hands already showing several red marks.
The ponytail youth waved at Ma Yiwen, "Go and make arrangements, get a larger private room."
"Yes!"
Ma Yiwen, wiping his sweat, retreated.
As soon as he stepped out, the manager pulled him aside, "Young Master Ma, who are those people?"
Fear flickered in Ma Yiwen's eyes, and sweat beaded on his forehead.
"Manager, we all call them the 'Five Fiends'. That Young Master Yan is their leader."
"In the compound, they are extremely well-behaved and sensible. But once they leave, they are wild fighters."
"I accidentally offended them, so I used Jinmeigui's unique features to lure them here."
"Without anything new, it's hard to attract their attention. You, see how you should arrange things?"
"Money is not a problem. Young Master Yan himself owns two companies. Otherwise, why would he have so many brothers following him?"
The manager's eyes flashed. When he saw Young Master Yan playing with the old country woman using a black card, he had guessed that Young Master Yan's identity was not simple. He never expected him to be a scion of a prestigious family.
He had always strived to connect with the scions of prestigious families.
Not long ago, he had met a pair of brothers excluded from the compound. Although he had gained a lot of information from them, he also knew that the children from prestigious families were strictly disciplined and had high standards. Outside matters rarely attracted their attention.
Today was a good opportunity. "What are Young Master Yan's hobbies?"
Ma Yiwen glanced down the corridor and pulled the manager into a corner of the lobby.
"I heard that Young Master Yan has some hidden health issues and needs stimulation. Do you have any way here?"
The manager pondered for a moment and said, "I need to consult the boss."
"Then hurry up." Ma Yiwen wiped his sweat again. "Young Master Yan's patience is wearing thin. First, get a larger private room to appease them. If you delay any longer, they'll get restless."
The manager nodded, "Alright, I'll call someone to make arrangements."
He beckoned a hostess and asked her to accompany Ma Yiwen to the underground private room with the guests.
