Chapter 11 (2/2)
TL Note: QFII stands for Qualified Foreign Inst.i.tutional Investor (QFII) Scheme. I'm personally not good with financial stuff so bear with me if there is any mistake.
”Maybe this would be a lifetime opportunity for me!” Pang Jing Dong thought.
Meantime, his phone started ringing out of nowhere. As he picked it up, he could hear Shen Jia Yao's voice saying, ”Jing Dong, what are you up to?”
Why aren't you calling me 'Happy'?! Pang Jing Dong was not pleased, who answered, ”I'm home.”
”Have you eaten?”
”Not yet!”
”Do you mind having a meal with me?”
”You are being too polite. It is my honor to dine with Lady Shen.”
”Then it's decided! I'll go pick you up, where do you live?”
”Give me the address of the place, and I'll go myself!”
After deciding the time and the place, Pang Jing Dong glanced at his watch, if I head out now, I will make it in time. He messaged to ‘Last Night's Sorrow’ saying, ”See you later!”
TL Note: Not sure why ‘Last Night's Sorrow’ suddenly appear here, but for now you only need to know he/she is a random pen pal Pang Jing Dong met online. A detailed introduction can be found in later chapters.
‘Last Night's Sorrow’ asked, ”Where are you going now?”
”Something came up!”
”Oh, you're a busy person?”
”Have you never heard of it? A successful man's trademark is, working hard like a d*ck in the morning, with his d*ck working hard at night!”
The vulgar language amused ‘Last Night's Sorrow’, who replied with a laughing emote and asked, ”I don't care about your day, but I'm curious if that is what you do at night!”
”My night is the same as my day! It's just that my 'Little Brother' hasn't found a target to work hard with yet!”
”Oh! I don't like guys who are free in the day, and their d*cks free at night!”
TL Note: This makes more sense in Chinese, and is a popular saying on the Internet. Basically, there are two types of men. First one is ”Working like a d*ck in the day, and his d*ck working at night.” (白天瞎 j8忙，晚上j8瞎忙) which means working hard in the day, but live a l.u.s.tful life at night (attractive due to his hardworking / money). The opposite one is ”No d*ck stuff to do in the day, and his d*ck has nothing to do at night!” (白天没j8事，晚上j8没事) which means jobless in the day, and his d*ck is jobless too (no one wants him).
Shen Jia Yao chose an average restaurant, which was located on a busy street. The street was filled with several motels, clubs, KTVs, etc. As the number of bars here was the highest, the street was also known as the ‘Bars Street’.
Throughout the year, after 6 p.m. every day, the place would be bustling with noise, filled with debauchery as fas.h.i.+onably dressed young adults lurking around. Either it was to release stress, or just merely a sense of emptiness, the people here were drinking recklessly and dancing wildly.
For those who called themselves ‘following the latest trend’ and labeled themselves as the ‘New Generation’, they see this place as a trend, a luxury, or even a representation of status. This endless ‘Bars Street’ was indeed hyped-up by the people. Anyone would be able to find their own 'enjoyment' here.
Besides that, this place was also a depraved one.
It was the 'headquarters' of 'international prost.i.tutes'. You could find a prost.i.tute with any skin tone and any race that you desired. That being said, some techniques were needed to get yourself a deal, as the prost.i.tutes here do not regard themselves as one. No middleman was required; all you needed was to be aggressive while pretending to be a gentleman, deep stare into their eyes while having some dirty dances, and you would find yourself an ”International Night”.
The truth was, the One Night Stands were not expensive. Lots of pretty international students who needed some extra cash had done this before, and they would not be shameful because of it. However, the local students who lurked around here were more shameless. They were not prost.i.tutes, but with their poor skills in foreign languages and lack of charm, they still want to go on an 'International Journey' in the name of love. In most people's eyes, they were more worthless than the prost.i.tutes; Simply say a few romantic phrases, and they would be willing to warm the bed for you.
Furthermore, if you were looking for drugs, excitement, s.e.x or anything else, that would be the place to go! Especially if you had enough of your present life!
The cab soon arrived at the destination. The street was lively, crowded with people. Despite that, the restaurant was located behind the high-rise buildings, hidden in the alleys. As the famous saying stated, ‘Good wine needs no bush’, the restaurant was famous for its delicious and unique Si Chuan Dishes despite its location.
The restaurant's entrance was located inside an alley, which the cab was unable to enter. Hence, Pang Jing Dong had to get down at the alleyway.
As soon as his legs touched the ground, he heard someone shouting beside him, ”Pang Jing Dong, you won't escape so easily this time!”
