"Boss, the girl you asked me to find...cough cough, the one with the butterfly birthmark above her left chest...we've located her, she's in Central Dragon City..."
"Hey. That's why you're our boss. This girl is even prettier than Teacher Cang...Boss, feel free to enjoy yourself. Your brothers here will cover for you if things go south!"
"Get lost!"
Fang Tao hung up the call, skillfully flipping out a Red Pagoda cigarette, taking a puff with squinted eyes.
Fang Tao is a hired instructor for a mysterious organization in China, codenamed Asura.
Half a month ago, Fang Tao was on a top-secret mission when an unexpected incident occurred, resulting in the death of a long-standing adversary who's caused him many headaches. Before dying, the foe asked Fang Tao to do him a favor - to take his life savings to his long-lost sister.
And so, Fang Tao had arrived at Central Dragon City, a legendary military stronghold since ancient times.
"Starry skies, chaotic dance of monsters."
Overlooking the bustling city under the nightscape, Fang Tao wore a faint smile at the corner of his lips. Flicking away the cigarette butt, he began walking toward a KTV club called the Starry Sky.
The Starry Sky, as the name suggests, was a rather famous KTV joint in Central Dragon City known for only one trait...chaos.
This place was a real mixed bag. You could find all sorts of people here: from high society elites to blue-collar workers sneaking in for a taste of sin after months of saving. Groups of university students with their girlfriends, looking for a crazy night out, could also be found.
After midnight, the Starry Sky lived up to its reputation for gratifying any “nighttime request”—as long as you had enough money to fund your desires.
Here, any affluent ladies suffering from sleepless nights looking for excitement, can hook up with an able young man to rise in their society.
It's littered with male gold diggers living off women, and lonely and bored women seeking excitement. If you take a fancy to one, you could whisk them away, no questions asked.
...
Today is the weekend, and Starry Sky KTV is even more bustling. The place is packed to the brim, with the DJ spinning tracks like mad, the stage thrumming and vibrating. Young men and women bob their heads and shake their bodies feverishly, rubbing against each other and raising the noise level to the extreme.
"Erm. It seems like there are too many rooms..."
Fang Tao is overwhelmed and upon a quick glance, there must be over a hundred rooms. Looking through them individually could take ages.
Suddenly, Fang Tao's sly eyes light up as a beauty who seems like a queen of the night steps into his line of sight. She is instructing two scantily-clad waitresses.
Her hair, black as the night, cascades around her, and she is dressed in a long, black gown that enhances her elegance. Her face is delicate, with fine features, and her skin is as smooth and lustrous as ivory, sparking in the light. Her eyes shine like pearls, with an allure that's captivating.
She stands tall and sleek, nearly the same height as Fang Tao, with a slender waist and a flat belly. Her figure is full and voluptuous.
Especially those mind-boggling long legs could drive any man insane. A black gemstone necklace hung on her swan-like neck that pronounces her queen of the night aura, radiating an intangible nobility.
"Sigh. What a waste for such a high-level beauty to run a brothel."
Fang Tao sighs secretly, then rushes forward with a grin, wrapping an arm around the night queen's small waist. His hand sneakily takes the opportunity to caress her smooth waist, which feels delicate and silky, making it hard to let go.
Why should he not take advantage of another man's wife if given the chance? Fang Tao, like a customer at a brothel, asks, "Hey. Beautiful, do you have some time?"
The night queen frowns, struggling a few times but unable to escape from Fang Tao's claws. She seems to understand the law of enjoying once you can't resist.
She relaxes, looking composed, her beautiful eyes twinkling with laughter, and a hint of playfulness, she asks, "Do you want to ask me out?"
"Such composure, she must be a veteran of this game!"
Fang Tao, unscrupulous as ever, pushes the night queen against the wall. Leaning forward, their bodies are almost touching, with only the tiny distance of a hair's breadth between their noses, they can feel each other's warm breath.
"Heh, right here?" The Night Queen's lips curve into a subtle smile, her tone nonchalant.
"Hah. Pretty lady, didn't expect you to enjoy some outdoor action?" Fang Tao squints, grinning mischievously. "Sadly, I'm occupied tonight..."
"Hah. Beautiful, I need to ask about someone...."
"Your girlfriend's working here behind your back?"
The Night Queen's flawless face carries an undiminished amusement.
"Impressive Madame, you really know the ropes," Fang Tao muses. People like her are notorious for not lifting a finger without a reward.
"Hell... even beggars are hitting on chicks now? Did I take a wrong turn somewhere?"
A hideous fellow with high cheekbones and lips like sausages walks past, rubbing his eyes as though seeing a ghost, doubt seizing his life by the reins.
Fang Tao's lips curl uppishly as he glances at the sausage-man.
With a smack, he pats Night Queen's shoulder, laughs, and says, "Wait a minute, gorgeous!"
A minute later, Fang Tao returns shoving a couple of bills into the Night Queen's collar, his sneaky grin unreadable. "Tell me where Gu Xiaodie is, and this money is all yours!"
"Gu Xiaodie?" The Night Queen appears a tad perplexed. This guy is actually here to track someone down?
Once she pockets the cash, the Night Queen smiles subtly again. "Would you be so kind to tell me your name?"
"Until we meet again, pretty lady," Fang Tao slickly smudges a little grease before departing, pompously saying, "Fang Tao! You'd best forget this name... it's going to be your nightmare!"
"Fang Tao? Quite an interesting fellow!"
The Night Queen looked at Fang Tao’s retreating figure with a teasing glance, her lips curling up in a fascinating curve.
As soon as Fang Tao left, two senior managers from the Starry KTV walked over. They gazed at the Night Queen with reverence and said,"Sister Bai, what brings you here?"
"Heh. No wasted trip, I encountered an interesting fellow!" The Night Queen, Bai Su, responded with a coy smile, her charming demeanor was enough to leave anyone in a daze.
The senior managers from Starry KTV were lost in confusion, unable to comprehend the boss's remarks.
What would Fang Tao think if he knew that the woman he just flirted with is the owner of Starry KTV, his future big boss?
Starry KTV and bars are places of decadence, harboring various illicit deals.
How many innocent girls have been drunk, dragged to some corner in private booths or restrooms, and taken advantage of? How many good women have been seduced by some uniquely strong perfume and completely swept off their feet?
It's a place full of foul air, in chaotical disorder.
Recently, Xu Xiao'e has been in a state of fury, indebted and forced to come and work at the Starry KTV through a friend's introduction. Despite agreeing to only accompanying people in drinking and singing, this shameless young man was rubbing against her and his hands were wandering all around.
With Xu Xiao’e’s fiery temper, she couldn't bear it and kicked him right in the crotch and made a run for it.
She stormed out of the S13 private booth, followed by a distorted faced white-faced guy and a vicious-looking scar-faced guy.
The white-faced guy was running clutching his groin, cursing, “You b*tch, have some spicy hot pot and you think you can run?”
“These cowards! Just watching as a girl is bullied, not even a hint of action. Not real men…” Xu Xiao’e gritted her teeth.
Some servers watched them run but remained indifferent, some even retreated in fear.
The wind-like girl kicked off her high heels and ran like the breeze.
Just around a corner, a ragged scavenger youth approached, looking very serious. He was peering at the room numbers on the doors in front of him.
"Hey there, move out of the way, move quickly!" Gu Xiao Die yelled.
Her reflexive emergency brake was a tad too late; she was about to run into him.
"Well, what's happening?"
With wide eyes, Fang Tao wanted to dodge but it was already too late.
The wind-like girl braked to a halt, narrowly missing him. However, her footing was unsteady, and her figure wobbled. A scream escaped her mouth as she almost fell backwards.
Suddenly, a strong arm encircled her petite waist in a full 180-degree spin. She saw a face marked by the hardships of life, not unattractive, with a smirk playing in the corner of his mouth. His eyes squinted naughtily at her chest as though he was about to drool.
