Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO

Dong Haoran didn\'t presume to act superior. Although the others were gang members and he was a police officer, Dong Haoran acted very much like a junior in their presence.

"Brother Hu, sorry to have kept you waiting, I just finished up with some stuff on my end," Dong Haoran said with a beaming smile.

Brother Hu, the man with the imposing presence, was one of the few leaders in San Tiao Alley.

Brother Hu was smart and ferocious. It took him only five years to rise from a petty thug to a leader in San Tiao Alley. This fact alone showed that Brother Hu was no ordinary man.

The other two men sitting beside Brother Hu were Wang Min, who had called Dong Haoran, and Huo Yuan, the manager of the bar.

Huo Yuan was from Zhu Island City and owned a bar chain in Xuan Country named "Troubled Beauty."

Huo Yuan knew how to play his cards right. He was familiar with the street rules, so when people came to his bar demanding protection fees, he went straight to their boss to negotiate a profit-sharing arrangement. That way, his bar wouldn\'t have to deal with any other thugs asking for protection money again.

This sort of arrangement was similar to the Sects of Zhu Island City, but it lacked their level of order.

However, Huo Yuan didn\'t care about that. He was only concerned with his bar\'s business. As for those demanding protection fees, as long as they didn\'t affect his business, he let them be.

Dong Haoran and Brother Hu drank a few glasses together and soon loosened up.

Huo Yuan, being the boss, couldn\'t stay there the whole time. After a few drinks, he left.

Brother Hu patted Dong Haoran on the shoulder, pointing to the men and women in the bar flirting over drinks, and said, "See any girl you like? Pick anyone; it\'s on me."

Although "Troubled Beauty" was a bar that didn\'t serve hard liquor, it had the highest number of visitors among all the bars in San Tiao Alley every day.

Since "Troubled Beauty" was more upmarket, most of the patrons, both men and women, were city-dwelling white-collar workers.

Dong Haoran knew that Brother Hu had significant influence in this area. Having offered him a choice, any woman he set his eyes on would be his, willing or not, because Brother Hu could make them willing.

"I don\'t know about that, Brother Hu," Dong Haoran feigned hesitation.

Brother Hu\'s face turned stern, "What\'s there to think about? I said pick anyone you like. Choose a girl, and after we finish our drinks, you can take her away. With me here, nothing will go wrong."

Dong Haoran\'s heart soared with joy, "Well then, thanks in advance, Brother Hu."

Brother Hu was willing to invest so much in Dong Haoran for a reason.

Brother Hu was no longer content with just ruling San Tiao Alley; he wanted to expand his territory. To achieve this, he needed support.

Although Dong Haoran was just a local patrol officer, that was fine. Brother Hu could use him to make connections with higher-ups.

Dong Haoran continued drinking while scanning the bar for beautiful women, searching for his prey for the night.

All these were decent women; no need for protection when playing with them, Dong Haoran thought excitedly.

Suddenly, Dong Haoran spotted someone familiar. He stared at the woman for a few seconds before finally remembering where he had seen her.

Just a few days ago, this woman was brought to the police station with Li Xiaoyao, and Dong Haoran was about to approach her when he got bitten by a dog.

This woman was Tang Tiantian.

Tang Tiantian seldom came to bars, but today she had to because her younger brother, Tang Youde, had his heart broken.

Tang Youde was a college junior, and his girlfriend of three months had cheated on him, leading to their breakup.

Tang Youde was feeling down, so he called his older sister to unload his troubles. After Tang Tiantian took him for a bite to eat, she brought him to a bar.

"You De, don\'t be sad anymore," Tang Tiantian advised, "A woman like that isn\'t worth your affection."

Tang Youde chuckled with a hint of drunkenness, "Sister, she doesn\'t actually like that man, she just likes his money. That man is a second-generation rich kid, changing girlfriends every single day."

Tang Tiantian said, "Since you know this, what\'s there to hold on to?"

"I can\'t accept it, why should someone with money be able to steal my girlfriend?" A frustrated Tang Youde grabbed his glass and downed it in one go.

While Tang Tiantian was consoling her brother, she was unaware that Dong Haoran had set his sights on her at this very moment.

Meanwhile, Li Xiaoyao and Zhu Xiaoyue had also entered the bar.

Zhu Xiaoyue looked around, searching for Dong Haoran\'s figure.

Li Xiaoyao, holding her hand, headed towards an empty table and whispered in her ear, "We\'re following someone, not catching them. Looking around like this, it\'s easy to be spotted."

Zhu Xiaoyue sat down at a spot against the wall as Li Xiaoyao directed. He pointed in a direction and said, "Stop searching, he\'s over there."

Following the direction of Li Xiaoyao\'s pointing, Zhu Xiaoyue indeed saw Dong Haoran and two other men sitting on a sofa, drinking and chatting.

Zhu Xiaoyue asked, "What do we do now?"

Li Xiaoyao\'s cheeks trembled as he said, "You\'re asking me what to do? I want to ask you what to do. Big-chested sis, you\'re the cop, I\'m just a regular person. Do you think it\'s appropriate to ask me about this?"

"What did you call me?" Zhu Xiaoyue immediately frowned and glared.

"Ahem, older sister..."

Zhu Xiaoyue\'s expression softened a bit, her eyes fixed on Dong Haoran, who was drinking.

Seeing her at a loss, Li Xiaoyao said, "He\'s just drinking, not doing drugs right now, so it wouldn\'t be right to go up to him directly. Let\'s wait here for a bit. If he really is a drug addict, then after he\'s done drinking, he\'s bound to look for a woman to hook up with."

"Why does he need to hook up? Isn\'t he supposed to be doing drugs?" Zhu Xiaoyue asked, puzzled.

Li Xiaoyao rolled his eyes, unable to refrain from cursing, "He\'s not going to use drugs alone, damn it, he\'s sure to find a woman to do it with him. Don\'t you even know that?"

Zhu Xiaoyue blushed, looked at Li Xiaoyao and asked, "How do you know so much about this? Have you done it yourself?"

Li Xiaoyao\'s cheeks puffed out, his eyes narrowing as he stared at her delicate face, "I\'ve never done it before, but if you\'re interested, I could make the noble sacrifice and let you have some fun at my expense."

Zhu Xiaoyue\'s eyes shot daggers, she spat out one word: "Scram!"

Zhu Xiaoyue and Li Xiaoyao bickered while drinking and occasionally glanced towards Dong Haoran.

The two waited until nine o\'clock when Dong Haoran had drunk quite a bit. Brother Hu asked him, "Seen any girl you fancy?"

Dong Haoran smiled and pointed towards a booth not far away, at Tang Tiantian, who was speaking with Tang Youde, "That girl is not bad."

Brother Hu glanced over, his eyes lighting up instantly. Tang Tiantian was the type of girl who looked like the girl-next-door. From this angle, one could see her profile and half of her body. It was clear that this girl had a great figure and was beautiful.

Brother Hu laughed and said, "Nice taste, little bro. Alright, go wait in the hotel room next door, I\'ll have someone send her over to you in a bit."

Dong Haoran laughed contentedly, already fantasizing about galloping across the soft hotel bed with Tang Tiantian tonight. However, suddenly, his expression froze as he patted his pocket—the pills were gone.
