852 A Million Times for You 214 (1/2)
Mo Li explained, ”Our hostesses are categorized into four grades, namely A, B, C, and D, with A being the best and most expensive.”
”We'll have those from grade A, then. We have nothing but money. Call them here and let us take our pick,” one of the men said haughtily.
Despite feeling peeved and filled with disdain toward him, Mo Li nodded and said, ”Alright, please wait a moment.”
She did not show her displeasure at all.
She retreated out of the room and called the young premium-grade hostesses into the room.
The young and delicate hostesses were scantily clad in revealing clothes, which accentuated their voluptuous figures. Their faces were covered in exquisite makeup, and they had sky-high stilettos on their feet as they strutted into the room while swaying their hips coquettishly.
They then arranged themselves in a single file, allowing the men to take their pick.
Mo Li understood that everyone had a preferred lifestyle of their own and, hence, she did not at all despise or look down on those young girls who were selling their youth and looks for money.
After all, she was in no place to criticize others, given the pathetic state that her life was in.
All eight of the young hostesses were selected, and they proceeded to sit beside the men they were serving, all of whom were married with a family.
Ye Xiaotian was the only one who was currently single.
Mo Li wanted to excuse herself, but to no avail. They instructed her to open the liquor bottles and stay inside the room to wait for further instructions.
The men broke into boisterous fun and chatter with the company of the gorgeous babes. There was also a young hostess cuddling next to Ye Xiaotian.
He subconsciously took a glance at Mo Li every now and then, trying to look out for a tinge of misery or jealousy on her face.
However, there were none at all.
She did not express any emotions apart from aloofness.
She kept her eyes fixed in front and did not look at him at all.
She managed to stay calm and composed throughout, as if she had completely cut ties with him.
Ye Xiaotian got drunk without realizing it and dozed off on the couch.
He had yet to wake up even after his friends had had a whale of a time and were planning to leave at about one o'clock in the morning.
Just as they were planning to carry him away, he sobered up.
He told them to take their leave while he remained in the room alone.
Mo Li had to clean up the mess they had created.
He remained seated on the couch and watched as she went about her duties.
It was two o'clock by the time Mo Li had tidied up everything. It was time for the bar to close as well.
She ignored Ye Xiaotian's presence and instead switched off the lights in the room before making her exit.
Ye Xiaotian sprung up upon realizing that the room had turned pitch dark all of a sudden.
He hurriedly left the room as well.
After changing back into her own clothes in the dressing room, Mo Li grabbed her bag and left.
There were barely any customers left in the bar, and all the waiters and waitresses were busy cleaning up. She could not help them out since she was getting off late, and she thus left on her own.
She exited the bar.
The sky was dark and gloomy.
Mo Li walked toward her motorbike, turned the key to start the engine, and left straight away.
A luxury car was tailing her.
She remained calm despite knowing who it was.
She finally arrived in Sanqiao Estate.
She parked her motorbike in the basement carpark of the estate.
Noticing that he had yet to alight from his car in the basement, she hurriedly sped out of the basement and zoomed toward her house.
Just as she reached the bench near the corridor, she felt her arm being grabbed.
”Just what do you want?” Mo Li questioned.
”The corporation has been acquired, and I now have ample time to spend with you. I still want to be in a relationship with you. I know I hurt you too much, but I'll make it up to you using the rest of my life.”
Mo Li felt as if she had just heard an absurdly ridiculous story.
It never crossed her mind that he would still have the cheek to say such things to her at such a juncture.
”Ye Xiaotian, just how… are you still oblivious to what's going on now? We'll never be together again in this life.”
