“No,” Ding Jie said, “it was Xiao Lian who asked for it first.”
“Why did she want the necklace?”
“I don’t know either. Maybe it’s because she wants to appear more similar to me,” Ding Jie said, “because we have been good friends for years, I naturally gave in to her request. Afterward, I asked her for the necklace, she told me that it’s in her house. The necklace was still in her house since its been long we met. In addition, you will be suspicious if I get it back since I told you earlier I have lost it. I was confused on whether to take it back or not.”
“I’d like to know how many times you’ve attended the show and what you’ve done with who picked you.”
“I attended the show just once.”
“Tell me the details.”
“Alright,” Ding Jie said after a moment of silence, “I remember that it was a month ago. At that time, Xiaolian didn’t want to attend the show, therefore she begged me to take her place instead. She didn’t make it clear what happens there, she just said ambiguously that I just had to attend the show while dressed up, and that it was only a commercial show. Since we have been friends for over five years, of course, I’d agree with her since we are bosom friends even though we don’t often contact each other. Only after I was forced to step onto the stage to be chosen by the members did I realize that I was fooled. I really wanted to run off immediately, but I couldn’t because of the security guards. Also, the staff was threatening me at backstage that since I was willing to attend the show, I had to participate in the selected sector. Thinking that not all the participants get to be chosen all, I walked onto the stage.”
Seeing his wife suddenly hug his waist tightly, the worried Li Ze asked, “Then have you been chosen?”
Ding Jie did not answer him but nodded.
Li Ze’s heart skipped a beat.
He imagined the well-dressed wife was sitting on the lap of one member, while the member is rubbing her boobs. He even pulled her thong to one side and got in, just as he had done last night.
If that was the case, even if his wife had confessed it, Li Ze would divorce her.
As he was about to ask what happened afterward, his wife continued, “After being chosen, I was especially afraid. But I knew I couldn’t get away, I had to go to the member who chose me. He asked me to remove the mask. But when I took it off, he asked me why I wasn’t Mu Er. I told him that I was helping her because she is busy. He asked me again whether I knew what the show was all about. I said I thought at first that it was just a commercial show without such sector. I was asked then what do I agree to participate since I have been informed? Of course, I refused it as a family woman who loved her husband. He was eager to choose another beauty then. But I knew that if that happened, there’d be other members who will choose me. And they might not listen to my words. I was afraid and disgusted at the dirty things the beauties have done in public, so I begged him to take me out of the Rose Club. I also assured him that Xiaolian would stay with him after that, but it might not be tonight.”
After pausing, Ding Jie continued, “My sincerity moved him, so after the selection ended, he took me out of the Rose Club. Because he was Xiaolian’s regular customer, he had her contact details. After taking me out, he let me off. After that, I called Xiaolian on why she tricked me. She told me that she was being watched by her husband and couldn’t attend the show. But because she had promised to attend, she had to find a substitute with a figure similar to hers, and she thought I was the perfect substitute. Because her husband owed a lot of money, Her view had changed a lot since she got married. She even mocked me that I gave up such an opportunity to earn money. I told her seriously that I would never sell my body. Husband, this is the first and only time I attended the show.”
“What kind of clothes were you wearing?”
“Usual clothes,” Ding Jie said. “There are no tough rules on clothing, so the beauties could choose what they want. For example, one can attend the show in very conservative clothes or open ones. Since I had been thinking it would be a regular commercial show, of course, I wore formal clothing. But no matter how conservative I am, I’m really sorry to you for that, after all, I really did attend the show. Every time I recalled that so many men were staring at me, I feel extreme guilt. Husband, I’m sorry, I was so easily deceived by her.”
“What about the jack of the blossoms? Did you really pick it up in the street? ”
“Of course not, it was from Xiaolian,” Ding Jie said, “After I separated from Lin Yunan that afternoon, I was planning to go home early because it was our fifth anniversary, an extraordinary event. But when I got ready to go home, she suddenly called me. She told me that she had to save something at my side for some days and the thing was very important to her. She said she might lose a hundred thousand yuan if her husband found it. Of course, I agreed without any hesitation. After talking with her for about an hour, she handed me the card. I’ve been to the Rose Club, of course, I knew I can exchange the card for eleven thousand, so I asked her why she gave me the card. She said her husband was suspicious of her so she couldn’t preserve it at home. Of course, I wanted to refuse, but I finally agreed as I am soft-minded.”
Ding Jie seemed a little lonely and sigh, “Hubby, I’m a fool. It’s okay to scold me.”
“Why do you still treat her as a friend even after she trapped you a month ago?”
“I was threatened by her.” Ding Jie said as she looked at her husband’s face, “Because I’ve been to the Rose Club, I was afraid she would inform you. As it’s a prostitution agency, so no matter how I explain it, you won’t believe that I am innocent.”
Ding Jie’s tears immediately spilled out, and she lay on her husband’s chest, crying.
