He won 900 million in the lottery.

This was a romantic dinner.

Zhang Jiehui invited Qiu Ya to a Western restaurant. The booths, red wine, lighting, music, and violin created an elegant atmosphere.

Zhang Jiehui raised his wine glass, and Qiu Ya raised hers as well; the two clinked glasses.

Zhang Jiehui: "Mr. Tan, this is the most upscale Western restaurant. Please try it and tell me what you think of the food."

Qiuya ignored Zhang Jiehui's words and instead focused on savoring each dish.

Until the very last dish was tasted.

Qiu Ya: "Captain Zhang, I've eaten and drunk my fill. When can I meet the men behind you?"

Zhang Jiehui smiled and said, "President Tan, don't be in a hurry."

He raised his phone to show the time: "We've just gotten off work. Everyone has their own dinner plans. By the time we finish this dinner, they should be done too."

Qiu Ya raised her glass helplessly: "Captain Zhang, you're so old, has anyone ever told you that you're greasy?"

Zhang Jiehui raised his glass and clinked it with Qiu Ya's again: "They all say I have a mature, uncle-like charm."

Qiuya: "Captain Zhang, you should understand that although my company is just starting out and has nothing, it has no shortage of money."

Qiuya swirled the wine in her glass: "These things are quite attractive to young girls who haven't seen much of the world."

Zhang Jiehui: "President Tan is indeed President Tan, but you underestimate me too much. How could I possibly win your favor with such clichéd things? I naturally know what you need!"

Qiuya: "Oh?"

Zhang Jiehui: "A strong woman naturally needs power. And I can bring you the power you need; the bar is just one aspect of it."

Qiuya: "Captain Zhang is indeed Captain Zhang, you understand women very well."

Zhang Jiehui: "In my position, it's easy for me to come into contact with all sorts of women. Some are after money, some are after power, and some simply want to find a backer."

Qiuya didn't reply, but instead raised her glass: "Cheers!"

The elegant dinner ended with the two tentatively testing each other.

Zhang Jiehui: "Mr. Tan, they have already booked rooms for us at the Royal Dynasty Nightclub."

Qiuya: "Who are they?"

Zhang Jiehui: "They are exactly the people you want to meet."

Qiuya: "I hope Captain Zhang won't let all the good impression he's worked so hard to build with me vanish overnight."

Zhang Jiehui: "I will definitely not let President Tan down. You will open a new door for him."

Royal Dynasty Nightclub.

Yes, it's the nightclub where I was raided for prostitution.

This is a very high-end entertainment venue in a fourth-tier city. There is a certain threshold for spending money here, and most people are unwilling to come here.

However, there is a small group of people who come here as if it were their daily routine, because they control the legality and compliance of this place.

Welcome!

Zhang Jiehui led Qiu Ya past one private room after another. In one of them, a glimpse through a crack in the door allowed Tan Ya to catch a glimpse of a sensual scene.

Until the last private room.

Zhang Jiehui opened the door: "Please come in, Mr. Tan."

Qiuya glanced into the room and saw three people sitting there, all dressed in sportswear.

Very low-key.

Just entered the door.

"Hello, please take out your phone for a moment. There are lockers here, and someone will keep it safe."

What level?

It's unbelievable that such a high level of hospitality is needed.

Zhang Jiehui took out his phone and put it in, saying to Qiu Ya, "President Tan, this is the rule, thank you for your help."

Seeing that Zhang Jiehui had handed over his phone, Qiuya had nothing to say, so she took out her phone as well.

"please."

Now that everyone's handed over their phones, their true nature should be revealed.

"Hello, boss!"

A row of nine beautiful women, all with excellent looks and temperament.

The three people besides Zhang Jiehui each ordered a beautiful woman.

Qiu Ya didn't stand on ceremony at all and also chose a beautiful woman, which surprised Zhang Jiehui.

Qiuya: "What's wrong? Isn't Captain Zhang sending one?"

After a brief moment of reaction, Zhang Jiehui also ordered a beautiful woman for himself.

Then he gave Qiuya a thumbs up.

After a burst of upbeat music, everyone began a brief chat.

Zhang Jiehui began to introduce them one by one.

Sun Ce, from the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection.

A travelogue by the Municipal Bureau of Culture.

Wang Weiping, Municipal Bureau of Culture.

Qiuya toasted with each of the leaders one by one; this could be considered a small circle, and there were all sorts of small circles within the system.

Zhang Jiehui introduced, "President Tan is preparing to invest in our bar; he's very powerful."

Wang Weiping: "Mr. Tan, it's nice to meet you. I hope we can have more exchanges in the future."

Weekly Travelogue: "If the bar project goes through, we'll have a lot of things to trouble Mr. Tan with in the future."

Sun Ce: "President Tan is a woman who is just as capable as any man. You can proceed with Jiehui's projects with confidence and without any risks, as we have you backed up."

Zhang Jiehui: "President Tan, I promised you, look..."

Qiuya: "Dear leaders, our company doesn't lack money, what we lack is an opportunity to make money. Let's all make money together!"

"So extravagant!"

"readily!"

Zhang Jiehui may be old, but he's not stupid. Although he's incredibly audacious, he's not foolish. He knows how to slowly erode a woman's heart.

Unfortunately, she met me.

After half an hour.

In the nightclub, Zhang Jiehui's room had reached a fever pitch, with the four men displaying their bestial behavior.

The beautiful woman in front of Qiuya had already taken off her clothes and was using her tall figure to seduce her in the most seductive way.

In order to prove her loyalty, she used all the techniques I had always used on her on the woman in front of her, and her own face couldn't help but flush.

Meanwhile, after leaving the feng shui club, I made a phone call to Zhou Minyi.

Since returning from Shanghai, I haven't even had a chance to spend some quality time with this chivalrous woman.

Me: "It's my treat tonight, ladies, eat whatever you like."

Zhou Minyi looked at me incredulously: "You're the kind of person who doesn't come to me without a reason. There must be something fishy going on with you contacting me first!"

Me: "Great news! You've earned a commendation!"

Zhou Minyi curled her lip and snorted coldly, "What kind of mischievous idea are you up to now?"

Me: "Let's go eat, we can talk while we eat."

I have to say, Zhou Minyi knows me inside and out. Our years of ambiguous understanding have reached a level where we know each other perfectly.

Osmanthus fragrans. (A local noodle shop.)

Zhou Minyi: "You're such a stingy person, asking for help in a place like this."

Me: "Spending money is nowhere near as effective as playing the emotional card. Now it's my turn to test you. When was the first time you ate here?"

No matter what kind of woman she is, memories are always the trump card in her emotional game.

Zhou Minyi's eyes were lost in memories, and a smile slowly crept onto her lips. Clearly, she was immersed in those beautiful memories.

Zhou Minyi: "How come I didn't realize at the time that you were so cunning? You only knew how to play the hero and save the damsel in distress."

I shrugged: "If I had known you knew martial arts, I definitely wouldn't have charged in. Fighting five people at once, that's the only time I've ever been brave in my life."

At the time, Zhou Minyi's father was still working in Liancheng, and some people from the underworld came to Zhou Minyi to retaliate.

In fact, his father had also received the news, but arrived two minutes late.

And it just so happened that I encountered that two minutes.

The consequences of fighting five opponents at once are severe; it's a Pyrrhic victory.

The last one was knocked down by Zhou Minyi with a beautiful whip kick, and I lost consciousness.

Osmanthus-flavored hot dry noodles.

After being discharged from the hospital, Zhou Minyi invited me to dinner here as a thank you, and it was during this meal that an unusual feeling between the young man and woman was born.

Zhou Minyi snapped out of her reverie, took a bite of her sausage, and said, "So, what do you need my help with?"

I chuckled and said, "Let's put on another 'hero saves the damsel in distress' scene."
