Hearing the praise, Qiangwei's face flushed slightly. Biting her plump lips, she said with a hint of self-pity, "What's the point of being pretty? Some people only come to see me once in a while, and it's my birthday, and you're coming so late."
Facing the charming and alluring woman before him, Yang Chen's heart was filled with desire, especially since this woman was looking at him with those alluring eyes, without a hint of rejection. However, Yang Chen's good mental state quickly helped him suppress his frantic heart. He regained his composure and smiled calmly, "I can't drink, and I'm not good at talking to women. Besides, setting up a stall every day really doesn't leave me much time."
Rose glared at Yang Chen with a hint of resentment, "Don't tell me these useless things here. Setting up a stall, what's the point of setting up a crappy lamb kebab stall? You'll work yourself to death and make no money. If you really want to make money so badly, come and be my nanny. I'll pay you a hundred times more per month than you make selling lamb kebabs!"
Yang Chen said with a wry smile, "Sister Rose, how can a man be a nanny?"
"How many times have I told you to call me Rose, sister? Am I old?" Rose glared at Yang Chen with her almond-shaped eyes, and said coquettishly. Yang Chen had no choice but to compromise. "Okay, Qiangwei, I was wrong. I just really like my current life and don't plan to change jobs for the time being."
Rongwei continued, unwilling to give up, "Then why don't you be my nanny? Be my bodyguard, okay? Or maybe I can come to the bar and be your manager. I'll only be there occasionally to manage things, and usually I'll just let things run."
Hearing these words, Yang Chen felt a little touched. He knew the woman before him truly cared about him, but he had his own principles. From the first day he met Qiangwei, he had decided not to get too close to her.
"Forget it, Qiangwei. I think selling lamb skewers is pretty good. There are a lot of nice people at the market." Yang Chen lowered his head to drink water, unwilling to discuss the topic further.
Rongwei saw Yang Chen's stubborn temper and wrinkled her nose at him angrily. She almost whispered a curse, "I'd rather you be my man..."
She didn't know that Yang Chen heard these words clearly, even though she herself couldn't hear them clearly. But Yang Chen knew he had to pretend he didn't hear anything. Although Qiangwei's face and figure exuded irresistible charm even in the dim light of the bar, ever since her appearance, even if someone saw her, they only dared to glance and pass by, no one dared to linger. Some new customers would curiously ask those around them who Qiangwei was, but the answer they received was basically the same: "Drink your drink, don't get yourself killed." Feeling somewhat defeated, Qiangwei walked around to the bar and sat next to Yang Chen. After pouring herself a glass of whiskey, she poured another for Yang Chen and gave him a glare of disapproval. "Old ox, I know you're stubborn. But, it's okay if you refuse to be by my side. Today is my birthday, can you please make an exception and have a drink?"
Yang Chen hesitated. It wasn't that he couldn't drink, but whenever he did, alcohol would cause his mind to become chaotic. There were too many things he didn't want to think about, so he needed to calm down. To him, alcohol was poison...
"Okay, but just one drink." Feeling a little guilty, Yang Chen didn't want to disappoint Qiangwei too much, so he finally agreed, silently hoping that such a small drink wouldn't have any effect.
As expected, Qiangwei smiled happily, her smile like a shepherd's purse after clearing the sky. Under the dim light, her face glowed with an ivory sheen, which made Yang Chen's heart tremble again. "Cheers."
After clinking their glasses, Yang Chen raised his head and drank the icy liquid without hesitation.
Rose giggled, then suddenly leaned forward, pressing against Yang Chen's chest, and said in a sweet voice, "You know, I haven't had a birthday in almost over ten years. There's no cake, no candles, no gifts, and certainly no party… but having a man like you, who doesn't understand romance, drink with me, I feel very satisfied…"
The woman's figure before him was voluptuous and appetizing from every angle. At this moment, Yang Chen could clearly feel two elastic and soft balls pressing against his thighs, the rubbing bringing a stimulating pleasure.
He lowered his head slightly, and the crotch of Rose's cheongsam revealed her white, porcelain-like skin. Beneath her curvaceous calves lay a pair of fiery red high heels. The strong visual impact brought a strong surge of male hormones to Yang Chen's body.
When a man sees a woman, the hormonal and adrenaline response is the most direct way to evaluate a woman, and Rose clearly scored highly. Just as Yang Chen was trying desperately to suppress his own irritation, Qiangwei finally sat up straight and gave him a sly smile, like a fox whose scheme had succeeded. "Well, my little man, it seems you have quite a lot of capital..."
Yang Chen smiled wryly. Of course he knew what Qiangwei was talking about. This woman was actually spying on him even as she approached.
"I see you're getting impatient. I'll go and entertain the guests. If you really don't want to stay any longer, then leave." Qiangwei gracefully left her seat and walked towards the crowd of customers.
The bar's patrons had long known that the proprietress was charming and alluring, but none of them dared to lose their composure. After all, they had heard long ago that this woman had a very impressive background. So, Qiangwei appeared quite relaxed as she greeted the guests.
In reality, although Qiangwei's face was filled with a warm smile, her extraordinary aura was enough to intimidate most men, and the thought that she was only to be admired from afar came to mind. Therefore, no one bothered to bother with her. Seeing Qiangwei walk away, Yang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, yet also scoffed to himself. Over the past six months since returning to this land, he seemed to have truly changed. If it were before, facing a woman as alluring and interested in him as Qiangwei, he wouldn't have allowed her to seduce him. He would have thrown her to bed, leaving her alone and just walked away. However, he couldn't do that now, especially since Qiangwei was the first woman he could truly call a friend in Zhonghai, and she was still very important to Yang Chen.
Even though he had only had a small drink, the alcohol was still playing tricks on his brain. Yang Chen felt as if his alcohol craving had been piqued, but he didn't dare drink more. Only he knew the pain of his wild thoughts after drinking.
However, looking at the tent in his lower body, which was still erect despite his helplessness, Yang Chen felt that it was time to vent some of his emotions, otherwise he would really feel suffocated. Of course, asking Qiangwei for help was definitely not an option. Once they had s*x, it would be difficult for him to escape.
After finishing a glass of water, Yang Chen quietly walked out of the ROSE bar. As he left, a hint of disappointment flashed across Rose's eyes, who had silently watched him leave.
After leaving the bar, Yang Chen briefly observed his surroundings, and finally, walked into a small bar not far away. Although high-end bars had more prey, Yang Chen didn't have enough money in his pocket to pay.
Since he wanted to live a normal life, he had to pay for the girls.
