Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In Happiness City…
Just as its name suggested, it was a place where you could seek happiness.
It was evening now. Happiness City just started its operation.
Gu Zhi took out a photo and placed it in front of the manager. “Do you know this person?”
“Mister Gu, you are…” The manager knew Gu Zhi. He was their VIP client.
However, when Gu Zhi took out his credentials, the manager was still a little stunned.
What is he trying to do?
Are rich second generations so bold nowadays?
“I am investigating a case. The credentials are real.” Gu Zhi pointed at the photo. “Have you seen this person before?”
The manager calmed himself down before looking at the photo carefully.
He frowned. He didn’t know the person. He took the photo and pa.s.sed it to the person beside him.
The other party shook his head too. The manager called all the staff over to look at the photo.
However, there were really too many people in Happiness City.
The staff could only remember three kinds of people.
The first kind were those wealthy and powerful old customers, the second kind were those that created trouble before, and the third kind were the workers who provided special services.
Lu Jiaqi was obviously not a frequent customer and she didn’t provide special services.
Ming Shu knew about this place from the ghost.
How did Gu Zhi know about this place?
“Can I take a look around?” Gu Zhi kept the photo and pointed inside.
He walked inside without waiting for a reply.
“Sure, do you need me to ask someone to show you ar…” The manager remembered that this mister was very familiar with this place so he stopped his sentence.
Is he here to be a spy?
Luckily, this was a decent entertainment venue.
“Mister Gu… this way please.”
Gu Zhi knew this place very well so he walked in effortlessly.
“Didn’t you just take over this case? How did you manage to find this place?” Ming Shu asked as she walked.
“The province bureau had been paying attention to this case for a long time.” Gu Zhi lowered his head and typed a message on his cellphone. “It has been a few days since I took over the case so I already did some investigation. Not everyone is like those useless idiots in the city bureau.”
Gu Zhi gave a look of disdain.
Ming Shu was curious. “Why didn’t you get fired?”
Gu Zhi raised his head. The light from his cellphone shone on his face. He slowly smiled and leaned over to Ming Shu. “I’m rich.”
Ming Shu: “…”
Is it great to be rich!
Gu Zhi retracted his gaze quickly and looked at the private rooms. He walked forward for a little while before opening the door of a private room.
The room was very noisy.
“Drink! Drink, drink!”
“Don’t stop me. I must make him drunk today!”
“Come, again!”
Ear-throbbing music and conversations between people formed a nuisance to the ear.
The private room was filled with men. Some of them were just wearing underwear.
Gu Zhi turned off the music. The private room quieted down.
Everyone turned their heads and looked at him.
“Hey, Chief Gu, are you here to check on us? We are really obedient!” one of the men said.
“Put on your clothes.” Gu Zhi glanced at the man that was just wearing underwear.
The man seemed casual just now but the moment Gu Zhi said this, he covered his lower half and rushed to the back of the crowd. The man put on his pants quickly.
Everyone was feeling weird. What is wrong with Gu Zhi this time?
Everyone went to the same public bath and compared that part of their bodies before. What was there to be shy about?
Someone saw Ming Shu and poked the person next to him. Everyone started noticing that there was a girl behind Gu Zhi.
It was a woman. She was alive. She could breathe!
WTF!
Were they all drunk?
Everyone rubbed their eyes. They didn’t see wrong. People started winking at Gu Zhi.
“It is so rarely that Chief Gu brings a girl here. You must drink today. Last time, you ran away quickly so I was forced to drink. I almost went to the hospital.”
“Chief Gu, shouldn’t you introduce her?”
“Chief Gu, flowers finally bloomed on you.”
Everyone was in an uproar.
Gu Zhi turned on the lights in the private room. The room lit up brightly.
“This is the consultant that the city bureau invited.” Gu Zhi smiled at Ming Shu with a weird expression. “However, if Consultant Qian is willing, this flower can bloom.”
Ming Shu blinked and said innocently and sincerely, “Chrysanthemum?”
“Pfft…”
“Hahahahahha!”
“Hahahahahahahaha…”
Everyone laughed till they were on the floor.
Gu Zhi twitched his mouth corners. He restrained the urge to curse at her.
“What is so funny?”
“Oh my G.o.d, I can’t control myself. I am dying of laughter. Hahahaha…”
Gu Zhi placed his hand on the shoulders of the man that was laughing the hardest. “Is it funny?”
“Yes… Hahaha…” The man couldn’t stop laughing.
Gu Zhi narrowed his eyes. He grabbed the collar of the man and slammed him on the floor.
“Ouch…” The man groaned in pain. He started shouting, “Gu Zhi, are you trying to kill me! My waist… hurts. Hurry and help me up.”
“Give up your nightlife and your waist will not hurt. Be careful of your nightlife in the future.” Gu Zhi flicked his hand away and stepped over his waist. He opened a bottle of beer. “Clear up this place.”
The rest of the people immediately went to clear the messy table.
The man got up from the floor. “Gu Zhi, can you talk nicely?”
“I can’t.”
The man: “…”
The man turned to look at Ming Shu. His eyes turned a few rounds. He went up to her enthusiastically. “Little girl, come, have a seat. Do you want to eat some fruit? There are raisins here, and peanuts…”
Gu Zhi drank two mouthfuls of beer and looked at the snacks piled around Ming Shu.
Ming Shu was smiling happily. She spoke softly and gently. She seemed really obedient.
Fake!
Fake woman!
The more he looked at her, the harder he frowned.
Why is she not rejecting them?
What can she talk about with these s.e.xually driven idiots?
… It would be impossible for her to reject snacks.
If you have snacks, you can make her do anything.
F**k, why do I feel so frustrated.
This is my wife!
“Why are you all hustling around a little girl?” Gu Zhi pulled the man up and threw the photo at him. “Go and ask if anyone saw this person.”
“Who is this?”
“Why are you asking so many questions. Hurry up and get moving!” Gu Zhi kicked him.
“Tsk tsk tsk…” The man flicked the photo. “You are a steel tree that hasn’t bloomed in a while but when you do, you have two flowers around you.”
Gu Zhi grabbed the beer bottle and looked at him calmly. “He Ren’nian.”
The man immediately became obedient. “I’ll go now. Don’t be angry. I will go instantly.”
He Ren’nian took the photo and asked everyone to take a picture of it. Then he asked them to send it in their respective group chats.
Everyone played together so there was a lot of overlap in their circles. However, they all had different family backgrounds so if they used their family backgrounds, they could contact a lot more people.
He Ren’nian asked the others to look for the lady but he didn’t leave the room. He kept pestering Ming Shu. Ming Shu didn’t know what he wanted.
After He Ren’nian left, Gu Zhi said to Ming Shu:
“Don’t talk to that person too much.”
“Why?”
Gu Zhi smiled gently. “He’s slept with a lot of ladies.”
“That means that his skills are good.”
Gu Zhi: “…” What does that have to do with you!
“Hahahahaha…” He Ren’nian carried a plate of fruits as he entered the room. He heard what Ming Shu said and almost dropped the fruit plate while he was laughing. “Chief Gu, seems like you have met your match.”
