Chapter 73: Nearly Exposed
“Be careful.”
The next day when Wu Mei woke up, Li Nanchen had already left. He had left a few words on her palm using her lipstick.
She immediately wiped away the traces with water and picked up her shirt. She deliberately revealed the provocative marks on her shoulders. Then, she walked out of the room.
Due to the exceptionally realistic and intense “patron-reception process”, the Clubhouse manager got rid of his surveillance on Wu Mei. She took this opportunity to contact Li Nanchen while the guests were drunk. She found out from him that with the help of the wiretap, they had successfully captured a few fixed clients of the drug lords!
Based on their testimony, the Ministry of Defense took out a few small suppliers and further closed in on the drug dealers.
Wu Mei hid the communicator for receiving and sending out information. She became more on guard. The more critical the situation, the more she needed to remain calm!
“Have you noticed? There seems to be much fewer patrons recently! Many of my regular patrons aren’t coming anymore!”
“Yeah! Furthermore, the manager’s face is so gloomy every day. It’s scary! Is our Clubhouse about to close down?”
In the lounge, a few ladies were chatting.
Wu Mei had also noticed the change that they mentioned in their conversation. The atmosphere in the Clubhouse was becoming more and more solemn. The security and the number of bodyguards at the entrances and exits were strengthened. All the guests had to be examined thoroughly before they could enter.
“I heard that the Boss got someone to serve the 19th floor yesterday. When that girl came back, she was half dead…”
“It’s terrible. I heard that there’s not a single good spot left on her body and her eyes were extremely dull! I was so scared that I had a nightmare at night!”
As she eavesdropped on their conversation, Wu Mei snapped the lipstick in her hand.
People can enter the 19th floor now? Something big must have happened!
“Wu Mei, Wei Long can’t come today,” Mamasan told her as she pushed the door open.
Behind the office door, the manager’s furious voice could be heard. He hurled the few vases on the desk onto the ground, shattering them into pieces.
Looks like Li Nanchen and the others are making good progress. Wei Long has been captured.
At this thought, Wu Mei acted upset as she took off her earring and threw it in the jewelry box in front of her. She cursed in a bossy and unhappy manner, “They’re all heartless men. They said that they’ll visit me every week. If he doesn’t come, how am I going to earn money?”
“There aren’t many patrons this month!” She looked into the mirror and stole a glance at Mamasan’s expression. However, she felt relieved on the inside.
The next moment, the manager came out of the office and stared at Wu Mei gloomily. He said, “Come to the 19th floor tonight to serve the patrons. Don’t miss this chance to earn money!”
Under the sympathetic gazes of the ladies, Wu Mei’s heart skipped a beat. This is not a good sign!
On the 19th floor, Wu Mei had hidden all her weapons in advance. When Wu Mei and the manager arrived at the elevator, countless bodyguards surrounded Wu Mei. She pretended to be surprised as she asked, “What is this for? Didn’t you say I was going to receive patrons? There are so many people! I can’t do it…”
“Cut the crap. Conduct the body search.”
The manager ignored her. The bodyguards checked all the places where she could hide her things before nodding.
After being screened by multiple scanning equipment and infrared equipment, Wu Mei finally stood in front of the mysterious door. The manager knocked on the door thrice and led Wu Mei in.
In the room that looked like a KTV room, the blood-red sofa occupied the most prominent position. A man protected by four to five bodyguards turned around and looked at Wu Mei with a dark and sinister smile.
The man looked to be about 40 years old. His narrow eyes made one feel uncomfortable!
He is the boss behind the scenes, the real drug lord!
Wu Mei was certain of that almost instantly. She heard the manager say, “Boss Kun Sha, I’ve brought someone here for you!”
“Okay.”
Kun Sha stroked his chin with interest and waved his hand. The bodyguards surrounded Wu Mei and suddenly swung their fists at her abdomen!
Wu Mei cried out in alarm, but she couldn’t retaliate. She could only dodge in order to avoid any vital parts. She screamed hysterically, “Why! I’m here to receive patrons. You can’t do this…”
She quickly pretended to be exhausted and collapsed onto the ground. She looked up at Kun Sha.
Kun Sha walked up to her and hooked his finger under her chin. “Is there nothing you want to say?” he asked in a hoarse voice.
“It would be a pity if I were to cut up such a beautiful face.”
“Think it through. If you tell me everything now, I might let you live…”
Wu Mei’s eyes shone with fear as she hugged Kun Sha’s arm and shook her head frantically. She said, “What are you talking about? I came here to earn money. I don’t want to die! I can serve patrons very well. Believe me…”
She pretended to have a mental breakdown and tried to bluff her way out.
Almost at the same time, the manager carried in the pot of flowers from the corridor and removed the wiretap that had been installed at the bottom.
“Boss, we found it! It’s this thing! This is what caused so many of our brothers to die!”
