Chapter 18

In the evening, Lu Li stood at the entrance of the 1927 Bar, his face twisted with a wry smile.

He took out his phone to check the time, but suddenly remembered it had been dead for a long time.

When it came to understanding Haicheng, Lu Li, a native of the city, was astonished to realize that he was far less knowledgeable than Zhang Jian.

Ever since being dragged out of the dormitory by this guy, despite only visiting two places in the afternoon, he had gotten a glimpse of the life of the rich in this era.

After leaving the school, the two first went to a legitimate Thai massage parlor. The tapping, the soft and warm touch—Lu Li, who had never experienced such things, blushed and almost fled in embarrassment.

After the massage, it was already past three o'clock. At Zhang Jian's insistence, they went to Haicheng Hotel for a big meal.

Haicheng Hotel might not be the most expensive restaurant in Haicheng, but it was definitely the oldest and most famous.

Lu Li had lived in Haicheng for twenty years, and this was his first time eating at Haicheng Hotel.

Of course, all the expenses were covered by Zhang Jian; otherwise, Lu Li would have left long ago. He was almost driven mad by the lack of money and had no spare cash to waste.

"Third Brother, tonight I'll introduce you to a beautiful woman and help you lose your virginity," Zhang Jian said, patting Lu Li's shoulder with a lecherous smile. "Most of the women here are white-collar workers and adventurous female students. Hehe, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"Satisfied my ass. I'm telling you, I must be back at the dorm before it closes, or don't blame me for getting angry."

As the saying goes, one who eats another's food cannot speak freely. Lu Li was no exception. Since Zhang Jian had treated him to a massage and a meal, it would be inappropriate to leave now.

"Haha, once you know the fun, you won't want to leave even if I kick you out."

Zhang Jian laughed heartily, leading the way inside. Lu Li shook his head helplessly and followed.

It was not yet seven o'clock, and the bar was not very crowded.

The low, mellow jazz music and the flickering lights made the bar feel peaceful rather than noisy.

Lu Li blinked, somewhat surprised.

Zhang Jian seemed to be a regular, pulling Lu Li to a booth in the corner and ordering a few bottles of beer and a platter.

When the beer arrived, Zhang Jian opened a bottle and handed it to Lu Li, looking around and smiling. "Not bad, right?"

Lu Li nodded. If it were just this, it would indeed be quite nice.

"I told you! Men definitely like it here; once they come, they don't want to leave. Besides, it's still early; it'll get even more exciting later."

Lu Li raised his beer bottle and clinked it with Zhang Jian's, hesitantly saying, "I still think we should go back early."

"Talking out of both sides of your mouth, absolutely talking out of both sides of your mouth."

The two drank and chatted, and gradually, more and more people filled the bar, a mix of all kinds.

There were those like Zhang Jian, excited and there for the women, as well as many well-mannered, well-dressed successful men. Of course, there were also plenty of women: elegant white-collar beauties, provocatively dressed and heavily made-up young women, and even a few girls dressed like students.

Lu Li scanned the crowd of men and women, his eyes clear and calm.

"Third Brother, look at that one. I bet I can get her in a minute," Zhang Jian nudged Lu Li, looking confident.

Lu Li looked over and was instantly stunned.

In terms of appearance, the woman was indeed attractive. She was around thirty, heavily made-up, and well-endowed. She was surrounded by two men, and she seemed to welcome all comers, chatting and laughing freely, occasionally letting out a coquettish giggle.

"Do you like that type?"

"Hehe, don't understand, right? Based on my years of experience, women like her are the most interesting."

Looking at Zhang Jian's mysterious face, Lu Li made a vomiting gesture. "You have some heavy tastes."

"Haha, just watch!"

Zhang Jian, unashamed, approached the woman.

Lu Li shook his head strangely, watching from a distance as Zhang Jian ordered two colorful cocktails and handed one to the woman. They chatted like old friends who hadn't seen each other in years, quickly getting engrossed.

The other two men, who had been there first, glanced at each other and silently retreated.

In terms of appearance, charm, and age, they were not in the same league as Zhang Jian. Staying would only bring humiliation. As fellow enthusiasts, they were not upset; there were plenty of women in the bar, and everyone had to rely on their own skills.

In less than ten minutes, Zhang Jian and the woman were whispering and huddled together.

"Really strong."

Lu Li was genuinely impressed by Zhang Jian's prowess, his face showing a look of admiration. It took a lot of taste and a thick skin to do that, and he couldn't help but be impressed.

The bar became increasingly lively, and the mellow jazz music was replaced by energetic rock.

With the rock music, the men and women were completely energized. They shed their pretenses and indulged in their desires.

Lu Li sipped his beer slowly, occasionally glancing at Zhang Jian and ignoring the women who flirted with him.

"Wow, a fairy has arrived."

"What a beautiful woman."

At that moment, a chorus of exclamations came from near the entrance. Lu Li turned to look and was instantly captivated.

A young woman walked into the bar with light, quick steps. She had fair skin, a beautiful face, and was even more stunning than Xia Qingxuan. Her figure was impeccable, a true beauty.

Lu Li, with his six hundred years of memory, had seen many so-called fairies, but he had to admit that this young woman was one of the most beautiful he had ever seen.

The young woman seemed to ignore the amazed gazes of the crowd, quickly scanning the bar. When her eyes landed on Lu Li, a faint look of surprise appeared on her face.

Seeing the young woman sit at the bar, Lu Li furrowed his brow.

As a martial artist, his eyes were sharp, and he noticed the surprise in the young woman's eyes, confirming that it was because of him. However, he was certain he had never seen her before, which was quite strange.

He was not stupid and did not think he was so handsome that he had never had a girlfriend in twenty years.

Watching the young woman's back, Lu Li was puzzled.

With her arrival, the men in the bar became even more excited. Many who thought they were handsome and wealthy approached her, but all were rejected.

Even Zhang Jian approached and said something, but she ignored him.

"Truly a seductress!"

Watching the men swarm like cats drawn to the scent of fish, Lu Li sighed inwardly.

After being rejected multiple times, the men finally realized that although the young woman was beautiful, she was not their type. It was better to go for someone with a higher success rate.

After finishing her drink, the young woman ordered another.

Taking the glass from the bartender, she suddenly stood up and walked gracefully toward Lu Li.

Noticing her approach, Lu Li's heart stirred. He leaned back in the sofa, feet on the table, and watched the young woman with a playful gaze as she drew closer.

"Hello, may I sit down?"

"An honor."

Lu Li quietly put his feet down, becoming increasingly wary. As expected, she was after him.
