Shi Gao slowly got up and said, “I’ll go take a look.”

Gu Man was disheveled and reeked of alcohol. She was holding a half-broken glass bottle in one hand and grabbing a woman’s hair with the other. “You b*tch! How dare you challenge me! Who gave you the guts, huh?” she viciously snarled.

The woman shrieked, “Let me go! Let go of me! You shameless cow! Who are you calling a b*tch, b*tch?!”

Shi Gao gave her men beside her a look, and two burly bodyguards immediately stepped forward to separate the two and snatch the broken bottle from Gu Man’s hand.

Gu Man gazed at Shi Gao drunkenly. “Hey! You’re here! The noble Miss Shi finally showed up! What’s up? Are you here to inspect your girls? I’m a sl*t now, just as you wanted! Are you satisfied? I’m yours so long as you give me the goods to keep me going. How about it, my dear friend?”

Gu Man struggled to break free from the bodyguards restraining her and pounced towards Shi Gao but was once again suppressed. Shi Gao stared at her with disgust and indifferently ordered, “Clean her up and bring her to my room.”

“Yes, ma’am!” The bodyguards dragged the kicking and screaming Gu Man away.

“How’s Xi Cheng?” Shi Gao inquired.

“He’s dead drunk,” a subordinate replied.

“Good. Send him over as well. Let’s fulfill Gu Man’s wish,” Shi Gao sneered. She and Lin Yu were the same types of people in certain aspects. They had no friends; only benefits mattered to them. Shi Gao was only working with Lin Yu this time because of Shi Ke. Therefore, everyone related to Shi Ke was doomed.

Gu Man unceremoniously sat on the sofa after being pushed into Shi Gao’s room. She picked up the cigarette pack on the coffee table, took out a cigarette, and eagerly lit it up. She greedily took a puff, leaned back comfortably on the sofa, and closed her eyes.

Shi Gao quietly said, “Lin Yu and Xi Cheng got married.”

There was a long silence before a tear rolled down the corner of Gu Man’s eye. “What does that have to do with me? Look at the ghastly state I’m in. What right do I have to compete with that b*tch Lin Yu?” she rasped hoarsely.

Shi Gao stood with her arms crossed, looking down at Gu Man from up high.

“That depends on whether you want to or not. If you want to, I can fulfill your

wish.”

Gu Man opened her eyes. “Aren’t you her best friend? Why are you offering to help me? Are you messing around with me again?”

Shi Gao laughed. “You were once her best friend, too. Friends? What a joke.” Gu Man looked away.

“If I help you fulfill your wish, will you willingly work for me in exchange?” Shi Gao asked.

“Cut the crap about fulfilling my wish. I’m already working for you now, aren’t I?” Gu Man jeered. “Do I currently count as your top call girl?”

Shi Gao chuckled, “All the girls here at my place are in this field, but you’re different. If you’re willing to help me, I won’t continue to make you do things you don’t want to do or serve men you don’t want to serve. How about it?”

Gu Man was momentarily stunned and stared at Shi Gao in disbelief. Shi Gao sat down on another sofa and smiled. “I mean it. Your arrogance and aggression are just about ground away. Now is the best time for me to negotiate with you. You know how it’ll end for the girls here.”ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ (ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

Shi Gao continued, “You have no way out other than obeying me. After all, even dying isn’t so easy here. Besides, it’s better to be a live dog than a dead lion! I’ll help you get the men you like, whether it’s Xi Cheng or Shi Nian, and you work for me!”

Gu Man’s mind raced. “I don’t trust you. Your credibility with me is zero.”

Shi Gao gave her a dazzling smile before getting up and pulling open the curtains on the side. There was a secret room behind the curtains. The lighting inside was warm and ambivalent, and in the room was a big bed with a man lying on it.

Gu Man stood up in surprise. Shi Gao made an after-you gesture and said, “Don’t worry. Do what you want. He’s all yours! No Xi family madams will be coming to catch you in the act anymore.”

Gu Man quickly walked over. The person lying on the bed was indeed Xi Cheng. “What did you do to him?” Gu Man asked sharply.

Shi Gao shrugged. “Oh, you’re worried about him? It seems you truly do have some feelings for him! The night’s short, and the drug we gave him only lets him mistake you for the woman he loves for a few hours. It’s up to you how you want to lie and explain this away after he wakes up! ”

Shi Gao pulled the curtains shut, leaving Gu Man with Xi Cheng. The best weapon that could make people submit was desire, followed by drugs.

Everyone was in full swing preparing for Ye Kun and Fang Xi’s wedding and Shi Nian and Yun Nan’s secret wedding. Everyone kept a tight lid on it, and the two who already knew the secret cooperated with everyone, pretending that they knew nothing about it. Only when the couple returned home would they laugh and exchange information about the progress in the wedding preparations they’d noticed..
