Diary of Getting Rich Quick in the South

The little girl who had been hit covered her face, but bit her lip tightly, not daring to cry out.

Zhang Qiang's godmother, who had been standing aside toasting people, rushed over quickly in her high heels when she heard the commotion.

"President Liu, please calm down! She's just a child and doesn't know any better. Please don't take it to heart."

As she spoke, she turned around and glared at the girl: "What are you standing there for! Mr. Liu only teases you because he thinks highly of you. Quickly apologize to Mr. Liu and drink more wine! Serve him well and don't act like a child."

As she spoke, she personally picked up a glass of wine and handed it to the young girl, whispering, "Hurry up, don't be ignorant of the rules. If you offend President Liu, you won't be leaving today."

Forced into a corner, the young girl, with tears in her eyes and trembling hands, was about to step forward to offer a toast and apologize.

But this Mr. Liu was clearly drunk and extremely aggressive. He didn't appreciate the gesture at all and directly knocked over the wine glass.

"Apologize?"

Mr. Liu slammed his hand on the coffee table, making the bottles and dice on it bounce wildly. "I paid you to come here and drink with me, not because you're giving me the cold shoulder! You don't want to serve me properly, do you?"

He grabbed the girl's wrist and forced her to kneel on the cold floor.

The little girl's body went limp, and she knelt down on the ground. Tears finally streamed down her face, but she didn't even have the courage to cry out loud.

Mr. Liu casually picked up a bottle of chilled beer from the table, unscrewed the cap, and poured the icy beer over the girl's head.

The splashing wine soaked her long hair, her face, and her clothes, leaving her looking utterly disheveled.

"Let me tell you, you have no right to be pretentious in front of me!"

Mr. Liu tapped the girl's forehead repeatedly with his finger: "I paid a fortune to hire this girl. Having her drink with me is a favor to you. If you don't want to work as a prostitute, then don't do this job! Since you've taken this job, you have to endure this hardship!"

The girls in the room were all silent, not daring to utter a single word.

Zhang Qiang's godmother stood aside, her face flustered, but she could only force a smile.

The door to the private room was pushed open, and Zhang Qiang rushed in with two waiters, presumably having heard the commotion inside and come to check.

As soon as he entered, he saw the girl kneeling on the ground being doused with wine. His expression changed slightly, and he walked forward with a smile, adopting an extremely humble posture.

"Mr. Liu, I'm so sorry. My staff were ignorant and made you angry. But they're just young girls working here, and they're easily embarrassed. If they really don't want to go out, we can't force them. I'll find some more sensible ones for you..."

Before he could finish speaking, an enraged CEO Liu splashed a glass of wine on his face.

Zhang Qiang's smile froze instantly.

"Who do you think you are?"

General Manager Liu glared at him coldly: "A mere KTV manager dares to interfere in my affairs? Who gives you the right to act like a good guy and talk reason? Did I send you here to say nice things?"

"I..." Zhang Qiang opened his mouth, but didn't dare to utter a single word in rebuttal.

Zhang Qiang, who usually swaggered around the store, now hung his head and didn't dare to breathe.

He clearly knew who this Mr. Liu was and dared not offend him.

After reprimanding Zhang Qiang, General Manager Liu's anger subsided considerably.

Frustrated, he pulled a thick wad of cash from his wallet and threw it onto the coffee table.

"Get out, all of you get out of here! I hate looking at you!"

As he spoke, he took out another wad of cash and threw it in front of me; it looked to be over a thousand.

"Hey you, hurry up and tidy up these things..."

Before he could finish speaking, the door to the private room was pushed open again, and a woman walked in.

Upon seeing this chaotic scene, I was momentarily stunned.

I was stunned when I saw that woman.

Su Wan?

What is she doing here?

The moment I saw her, my heart skipped a beat, but I felt mostly anger.

He's incorrigible! A leopard can't change its spots!

She just promised me two days ago that she had quit her job and would stay home to do live streaming and live a good life.

I actually believed it, thinking she had finally escaped this chaotic circle.

And now, she's actually back.

I've heard a lot of gossip before, saying that some girls might be forced into these kinds of places because they have no other choice or are desperate.

But once they've tasted the thrill of quick money and gotten used to extravagant spending, they can no longer endure the hardship of a typical nine-to-five job and careful budgeting.

In the end, they even numb themselves, thinking that since it's all about making money, they might as well do whatever is easiest, and it doesn't matter who they sleep with.

She sleeps with her own man, does his laundry and cooks for him, and has no money.

Sleeping with other people and still getting tons of money, at most you'll just suffer some grievances.

My chest felt tight and heavy.

The moment they saw Su Wan, Zhang Qiang and his godmother also immediately followed my gaze to Su Wan, then quickly turned their heads to glance at me.

I lowered my head, clenched my fists, and desperately suppressed my surging emotions.

Because the private room was crowded and dimly lit, Su Wan's attention was drawn to the chaotic scene, and she didn't notice me.

The moment Mr. Liu saw Su Wan, his eyes lit up, and he waved us impatiently, saying, "Alright, alright, that's all for you. Get out of here!"

I hesitated for a moment, then lowered my head and followed those people out from behind Su Wan.

She didn't see me at all.

Stepping out of V806, I leaned against the corridor wall and let out a long sigh, but my chest still felt heavy.

I really want to ask Su Wan why she came here. Didn't she resign? Why is she back here? Did she come back to work?

I clearly told her that she didn't need to work so hard to pay off her debts anymore.

and many more……

I suddenly realized that I had never told her about this in detail.

I rescued Zhao Hongqi and we became sworn brothers.

I've never known how to explain to him that he wiped out all our debts.

Su Wan despises Zhao Hongqi, a gangster, from the bottom of her heart. If she knew that I was now working with Zhao Hongqi, she would be furious and might even break off all ties with me.

What the hell!

I slapped my forehead.

So... Su Wan had no idea that the debt had been cleared?

She's still foolishly working hard to earn money, hoping to pay off that debt.

But she clearly promised me that she would do her live streams properly and get away from here completely!

My head was buzzing, and I felt anxious, angry, and a little heartbroken.

"Chen An, you're amazing! You made a killing today, you have to treat us tonight!"

"Yeah, yeah! We've only been here two days and we've already run into a generous patron like Mr. Liu, who casually tipped us a thousand yuan. He's definitely a benefactor!"

"They're so lucky! We've been working for half a year and haven't gotten this kind of treatment!"

Several colleagues gathered around, teasing him with envy.

Normally, I would be happy to receive so many tips, but right now I'm not in the mood at all. I can only force a smile and nod to get by, my mind is full of Su Wan.

At this moment, Zhang Qiang's godmother led the girls who had just been frightened out of the private room and was quietly comforting everyone.

Seeing this, I immediately hurried after them.

"Sis, I have a question for you."

I stopped her and asked, "Didn't Su Wan already resign? Why is she suddenly here?"

Zhang Qiang's godmother was already upset about the farce in the private room earlier, and when I stopped her to ask her questions, she seemed a little impatient.

"Yes, he resigned. He left a long time ago."

"Then why did she come here today?" I pressed.

She frowned and waved her hand impatiently: "You're asking me? Who should I ask?"

She paused, then, as if deliberately trying to disgust me, added another sentence.

"Women are all like this. Once they've tasted the thrill of quick money, who can stand working themselves to the bone for a meager salary? 'Reforming' is just talk."

"Having grown accustomed to a glamorous life, can one endure poverty?"

"To put it bluntly, she just can't bear to part with the quick money here. And you're still stupid enough to think she's some kind of good person."
