997 Young People Should Go Out and Have Some Nightlife
Zi Yi then turned to leave, but Lu Jingye held her hand and said, “I want to come along.”
Zi Yi glanced at the twins and asked, “What about Tangtang and Guoguo?”
“Mom can take care of them.”
Lu Jingye gestured and said, “Mom is downstairs. Why don’t you go tell her about it?”
!!
Zi Yi nodded. She walked out to the corridor on the second floor and looked down to see Mrs. Lu talking to Anya as they sat on the couch. She said, “Mom, Ah Jing, and I are heading out. Can you help take care of Tangtang and Guoguo?”
Mrs. Lu agreed to her request and replied, “Sure thing.”
Mrs. Lu and Anya walked up to them.
Mrs. Lu looked at her grandchildren. They had just eaten but had not gone to sleep yet. She smiled and said, “If you are going to stay out late, Tangtang and Guoguo can sleep with me for the night.”
Zi Yi replied casually, “Okay then.”
Lu Jingye wanted to say he would pick up the babies later but since Zi Yi had agreed to it without hesitation, he did not say it out loud.
The two of them headed out of the residence.
When Zi Yi walked past Anya, she asked, “Anya, we are going to the bar. Do you want to join us?”
Before Anya was able to speak, Mrs. Lu said in agreement, “Anya, you should go. Young people should go out and have some nightlife.”
She added, “Call Yunxiao and tell him to pick you up. Tell him to go out and enjoy himself like a normal youngster.”
Zi Yi and Anya could not resist laughing on hearing this.
Anya nodded. “Yes, Mother.”
The three of them then went downstairs together.
It was still early in the evening. It was slightly past six o’clock and it was summertime. A sunset glow could be seen in the background.
Zi Yi asked Anya, “Is Ange already in town?”
“I think so.” Anya was not entirely sure. “He didn’t really stay in touch with me after I contacted him about it. He simply said he would spend a few days exploring the city for a few days first before looking for me.”
Zi Yi smiled. “Why do I have a feeling Ange’s up to something? I wonder if he’s secretly trying to do business with someone. Why else would he not come and see you?”
Anya shrugged. She had the same suspicions.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
In a private room inside a luxury club.
A handsome man with an elegant posture and holding a wine glass, sat in the middle of a bunch of men as they smoked. Even though they were at a club, he appeared as though he was attending some royal banquet.
“Mr. Ange.” Someone suddenly leaned forward and flicked some cigarette ash into an ashtray. After he was done, he straightened his back and looked at Ange. “What do you think about my club?”
Ange lowered his eyes as he swirled the contents of his wine glass looking completely calm. “Not bad.”
The moment he heard Ange’s words, he smiled and continued speaking, “In that case, what do you think about accepting the club as a gift? If you help to open a back door for me in the Golden Triangle, consider it yours.”
“Oh really?” Ange looked up at the man sitting across from him.
The man had a square-shaped face with deep features. His eyes looked especially intimidating and it was clear he was not to be trifled with.
Ange knew the man. The new four families were now in power and he was related to one of them. His name was Wang Hongyi. He was capable and had the brains to get what he wanted. His only problem was that he could get cocky.
Ange preferred to take strong measures against people like him.
His lips curved up as he said, “Sounds good, but why do I have a feeling it isn’t as good as it sounds?”
Before Wang Hongyi was able to speak, someone sitting beside him got angry.
“Mr. Ange, Brother Hongyi just needs you to do him a small favor and this huge luxury club will be yours. Do you have anything to lose?”
He nearly wanted to say out loud that Ange should really stop pretending he was not happy about getting the club.
Ange looked at the people sitting across from him. He shook his head in disappointment. “You don’t even understand the situation there. Mr. Wang, you must be kidding, right?”
Wang Hongyi did not like Ange’s attitude at all. “Just give it to me straight and tell me whether you’re in or out, Mr. Ange. Let me make things clear, even if you refuse to work with me, let’s not forget you’re not the only operator in the Golden Triangle.”
Ange put the wine glass down on the coffee table nonchalantly and stood up. “In that case, why don’t you go work with someone else? Why bother calling me over? Isn’t this just a waste of our time?”
“You…”
Wang Hongyi raised his hand to stop his men. He watched as Ange headed for the door with an angry and cunning look in his eyes.
He said, “Mr. Ange, now that you are here, let me remind you that you are no longer in the Golden Triangle. You aren’t allowed to make trouble here. From now on, you should be careful. Otherwise, you might get thrown into jail anytime.”
Ange halted and turned when he got to the door. He glanced at “Mr. Wang, you really don’t have to worry about me. I was able to come here effortlessly and I can leave just the same.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he walked out of the room.
After he was gone, Wang Hongyi’s face turned dark.
“Brother Hongyi, what shall we do about him?”
Wang Hongyi pondered and said to one of the men, “Get someone to follow him. Since he’s in the capital, I’m sure lots of people are looking for him. When the time comes, create some problems for him and help him settle them. I’m sure he won’t say no to us then.”
“Sure thing, Brother Hongyi.”
The other man asked quizzically, “I recall it’s Ange’s first time in town. Why do you think he’s here anyway?”
Wang Hongyi contemplated briefly before a knowing look appeared on his face. “I’m sure he’s either here to see Second Young Master Lu or Miss Zi and work with them.”
Everyone promptly laughed out loud.
“If he shows his face to anyone from the Lu family, Second Master Lu will throw him in jail right away.”
“That’s right. He’s from the Golden Triangle. How could he show his face in front of them?”
…
Ange left the club and got into the car. He said to the chauffeur, “Take me to the [Futuristic Bar].”
After he was done, he proceeded to rest his eyes.
When the car got to [Futuristic Bar]’s entrance, Ange looked at the entrance which was quite different from the rest of the bars on the street. He smiled and said to himself, “Looks very impressive. I think it would be nice if there was one in the Golden Triangle as well.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he opened the car door and got out of the car.
There were neither any staff nor robots at the door to handle customers. Ange was a little puzzled but he decided to walk right in. However, when he was a meter from the door, he was blocked by an invisible barrier.
A mechanical voice said, “Please produce your ticket or ID.”
Ange felt puzzled. “Ticket? This is a bar, but it’s asking me for a ticket?”
Someone standing behind Ange heard his remark. He smiled and said, “Dude, you must be from out of town, right?”
Ange looked at the man behind him.
The man clarified. “If you want to enter the [Futuristic Bar], you need to make reservations a week ahead of time. Once you have a reservation, a ticket linked to your ID will be generated. You can only enter the bar with a ticket.”
After the man was done explaining, he walked passed Ange. When he got to the door, he produced a ticket and promptly gained entry to the bar.
Ange stood there looking at the door, his hand against his chin. He wondered how he could enter the bar without letting Zi Yi and the others find out.
