Chapter 98 - Be Obedient
“Alright, go and tell the boss that she’s awake.”
The other guard quickly ran away, leaving one man to stand guard at the door. He crossed his arms and leaned against the wall as he smoked. Shen Hanxing sized him up without batting an eyelid. The man in front of her was obviously not on the same level as Brother Wang, Brother Fei, and the other hooligans. This man also had tattoos on his body, but he did not deliberately show them off. His hair was not dyed in various colors either. Instead, he had a clean crew cut, and he dressed well. He was different from Brother Wang, Brother Fei, and the others, who wanted to show others that they were hooligans at a glance. This man did not look like a hooligan at all, but his body faintly exuded a brutal and bloody smell. It was obvious that he had seen blood before, and he looked particularly fierce. The man looked as if he was casually smoking, but Shen Hanxing knew that the moment she tried to escape, this man would be able to catch her in no time.
“Sixth Brother.”
The boss they were talking about had not arrived yet. However, a woman with heavy makeup, dressed in a tight-fitting qipao, and revealing a pair of fair legs poked her head out. She smiled coquettishly and asked, “What is this? A newcomer?”
“Don’t ask about things that have nothing to do with you,” the man looked at her coldly. “The boss wanted us to bring her here.”
When she saw Shen Hanxing in the room, the woman could not help but exclaim in surprise, “Wow, this girl is really beautiful. No wonder you have to personally keep an eye on her, Sixth Brother.” Then she asked with a smile, “It seems that she hasn’t been properly trained, right? Do you want me to go over and give her some advice?”
Sixth Brother held the cigarette in his mouth and blew out a thick smoke ring. He did not say anything. He neither refused nor stop her. The woman knew what she had to do. She swung her slender waist and entered the room. Then, she smiled and sat beside Shen Hanxing. “Little sister, don’t be afraid. As long as you are obedient, everything will be fine. Boss is a very trustworthy person.”
“Obedient? What would be considered ‘obedient’?” Shen Hanxing turned her head and looked at the woman calmly, as though she was very curious. “Obedient like you?”
The woman froze slightly. She seemed to be surprised at Shen Hanxing’s calmness, but it was also as though Shen Hanxing’s words had hit a sore spot. The expression on her fair face changed several times. After taking a deep breath, she smiled again, “Isn’t it good to be obedient like me?”
Her hand, which was stained with bright red nails, gently pinched Shen Hanxing’s chin. She laughed and said, “Girls who come here will always seek death and cause trouble for a while. They only become a little smarter after they suffer. The way you’re acting now is great. You don’t cry or cause trouble. This is our fate. We have to accept it. Be obedient and you suffer less. Why would you want to make things difficult for yourself?”
“Isn’t it good that we can earn money and live happily like this?” Although the woman was smiling, her eyes were fluttering with emotions that were even sadder than one would feel when crying. She gently advised, “Little sister, don’t take it too hard on yourself.”
“I’ve never accepted my fate. If I accepted my fate, I would have died a long time ago,” Shen Hanxing narrowed her eyes. Her gaze did not waver. “What I like the most is to ask for trouble and fight with the heavens for my life!”
The woman opened her mouth in surprise. After a moment, she covered her mouth and giggled. Her tone was regretful and cruel as she said, “That’s a pity. With your personality, you might have to suffer a lot.”
After saying that, she turned to look at the man by the door. “Sixth Brother, will you discipline her by yourself later?”
“Me? I wouldn’t dare,” Sixth Brother laughed. “The boss will personally come over later.”
The woman sucked in a breath of cold air. Her gaze carefully sized up Shen Hanxing’s face for a moment, as though she was in awe. Her gaze was also mixed with another emotion. “No wonder, she has such a beautiful face after all.”
“Alright, you’ve already seen her. Stop wasting your time here,” Sixth Brother had seen enough of the commotion and impatiently chased her away. “Hurry up and get lost. Get ready to receive the guests.” “Don’t be in a hurry, Sixth Brother,” she acted coquettishly. The woman seemed to have long gotten used to Sixth Brother’s tone. Her tone was coquettish and charming as she said, “I think this little sister came here without any makeup. It would be too impolite to meet the boss like this.” She took out a lipstick from her small bag. She smiled as she approached Shen Hanxing. She said, “I’ll put some lipstick on you, little sister. Your complexion will look much better after that.”
Shen Hanxing raised her head. She didn’t avoid the woman. She allowed the woman to hold the lipstick and draw on her lips.
