The words VIP were clearly written on the door of the lounge. Manager Huang pushed open the heavy double door but did not go in.
"You two, wait a moment, Sister Taozi will be here soon."
As soon as we sat down, the fruit plate was served, and all kinds of drinks were placed on the cart like an exhibition.
The waiter had obviously been specially trained. After the items were delivered, he walked backwards back to the door without saying a word, and then turned around and left.
"I'll go!" Xiaomei sat on the sofa and looked in front of her in shock: "Such a big battle?"
Her appearance was exactly the same as when I first arrived in Monan.
I picked up an apple casually, put it in my mouth and took a big bite: "Tao Zi is the eldest sister of Yueming Tower, so the ostentation will definitely not be small."
"That Chen Qi, who are you?"
I was stunned for a moment, then responded with a smile: "Friend, a very good friend."
Xiaomei was still amazed: "This friend of yours is no ordinary person."
While talking, the door has been pushed open.
Taozi, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, appeared in front of me wearing a red cheongsam and with delicate wavy hair, holding her shoulders.
She was like a person forgotten by time, neither her face nor her body had changed at all.
"Are you looking for me?"
Taozi raised her chin and looked at me expressionlessly.
I leaned on the comfortable sofa, nodded lightly and said, "Chen Qi asked me to come."
The high heels clicked, and Taozi twisted her waist in front of me. Her eyelids drooped slightly, disdainful of the arrogance that appeared in her almond-shaped eyes at the same time.
"Chen Qi?" Taozi sneered a few times: "Is that little beast not dead yet?"
Behind the mask, I glanced at her speechlessly, but I couldn't say anything.
"Tell me, is he looking for ***?"
"I want you to help find someone."
Taozi glanced at me lightly: "I won't help."
I knew she was difficult to deal with, but I didn't expect her to reject me so readily.
I slowly stood up and asked, "Why?"
"Can I believe you just based on your few words?"
Taozi pulled a chair from behind and slowly crossed her legs, not caring about the exposure under the high-cut cheongsam.
She moved forward again and said, "Auntie, here comes the ring. Do you have an eye or a toe?"
Taozi stared at me with a half-smile but not a smile: "Your next sentence will definitely say that Chen Qi has an accident in another place and needs money to save his life. I asked you to come here to deliver the letter and get the money on the way, right?"
"Isn't it vulgar?" Taozi rolled her eyes: "In what lifetime have you used this routine, and you still use it with your aunt?"
Good guy, is she treating me as a liar?
What Taozi said is called shaking head.
This thing was a common method used by scammers in the past. They would get some information from others and take advantage of underdeveloped communications to go to other people's homes and deceive them.
Usually, one can cheat several months of living expenses at a time.
But now that communications are so advanced, deceptions that were once impossible to guard against are no longer possible.
"Hey!"
Taozi slammed the table and shouted angrily: "I'm talking to you!"
"I'll give you three seconds. If you don't leave, I'll send you away."
"Three." Before I could say anything, Taozi had already started counting down: "Two."
"one!"
She turned towards the door and shouted sternly: "Are all the people standing guard eating shit?"
"Hula."
As expected of a local snake, at least a dozen people rushed in with one gulp.
Although it was broad daylight, they carried the machete in their hands without any scruples.
The light flickered, and the cold glow of the blade could be clearly seen.
Obviously, this is not a showpiece.
Taozi’s behavior seems very extreme, but I can understand it.
The people who come in and out of Yueming Tower can be said to be from all walks of life.
The fact that she, a woman, can support such a large business relies on three parts vigilance, six parts courage, and one part adapting to the changing circumstances.
Xiaomei grabbed my arm and hid timidly behind me, only showing her frightened eyes.
Tao Zi raised her fingers to brush the loose hair from her ears and temples. The velvet-embedded fan slowly pointed at me, her lower jaw was slightly raised, and she exhaled like blue.
"Cut it."
That understatement was like killing a chicken.
I came today not to fight!
"Wait a minute!"
I blocked Xiaomei behind me and looked at Taozi attentively: "Let them go out, I have something to tell you!"
"Go out?" Tao Zipi looked at me with a smile: "You still want to play tricks?"
I swallowed and whispered, "I'm just trying to save your face, don't you know how to flatter me!"
"Oh, in my three-thirds of an acre of land, do you think I am being flattered?"
Taozi calmly put the fan behind her waist and picked up a machete.
The cold blade was pressed against my neck. Taozi tilted her head and said, "Say, I'll listen."
OK! You forced me to do this!
"It's been such a long time, don't you just want to sleep with Chen Qi?"
