“Partly because of him, but mainly because I don’t want a child of my own,” said Liu Feifei on the other end of the line. “For me, I treat Yuou as my own daughter, so I don’t want her to be snubbed because I have my own children. Maybe it was the fact that her mother had leaped to her own death that she’d been so stubborn. She would do what she wants, no matter what other people said. I told her that she couldn’t blame her father for her mother’s death, but she wouldn’t listen. ”
“Then do you know how her mother died?”
“She leaped to her own death after having melancholia.”
“Then why does her mother have melancholia?”
“Because the baby in her belly is not saved.”
“Why wasn’t the baby be saved?”
“How do I know?” Liu Feifei said, “I only know it was an abortion.”
Hearing this, Li Ze knew that Liu Feifei didn’t know what happened to Liu Yuou’s mother.
That was why he was thinking whether he should directly tell Liu Feifei.
After thinking about it, Li Ze finally decided not to say anything.
The decision whether to let Liu Feifei know should be in Liu Yuou’s hand. He just had to choose to observe.
And because he was very interested in Liu Feifei being mistress, Li Ze asked, “What’s the matter with your relationship with the owner of the Rose Club?”
“I have to start from four years ago,” said Liu Feifei, “four years ago, I was a lobby manager in a hotel, and he was a regular customer. I got to know him several times. He is a very polite and modest man, kind of gentleman. Plus, he always said he wasn’t married, so I got a good impression of him. He invited me to dinner later, and then I became inseparable from him. One day he asked me if I wanted to join his company, and he said that the salary would be three times higher than the one I had, and I only had to work two or three days a month. It was a very tempting offer, but I didn’t believe there was such a company in the world, so I refused him. After half a month, he invited me to dinner. That night was just my birthday, and I was surprised that he knew that, so he had the guitarist singing to me besides buying a birthday cake.”
After a pause, Liu Feifei continued, “Of course, the thing that makes me happy the most is that he proposed to me at the end of dinner.”
Hearing this, Li Ze asked, “Did he propose to you under the condition of being married?”
“That’s right.”
“You didn’t know about it at that time. But you knew later, why didn’t you leave him?”
“I’ll talk about this later,” Liu Feifei said, “After he proposed to me, I immediately agreed to it. After that, he kissed me and told me to return to the hotel with him. But that night we didn’t go back to the hotel where I worked, but another five-star hotel. Because I accepted his proposal, it was natural to have sex later. In the month that followed, he called me his wife and bought me clothes and shoes and the like. I thought I was the happiest woman in the world, and I thanked God for giving me the chance to encounter him. After almost a month, he invited me to dinner as he always did, and invited me to join his company. Though we didn’t marry, but I did treat him as my husband, so I agreed immediately. But when he said that his company was the Rose Club which was an intermediary for prostitution, I was frightened. He asked me to be the host of the elective, and I refused him. But I had to compromise when he described the future of our family.”
Seeing that Liu Feifei didn’t continue, Li Ze asked, “Then what’s next?”
“When I hosted for the first time, because I couldn’t relax, he wasn’t satisfied with me. Didn’t I say that he was like a gentleman? He was furious with me that night. I said I wasn’t fit to be the host of this activity, and I hoped he would ask other women to do it. But when he said a fact, I was scared. He said I used to be an escort girl in KTV, so I needn’t have to pretend to be reserved before him. He also said that the part he preferred in me was not my face or body but the seductive nature that I had in my bones. He also said that he was actually married, and he only wanted me to become a host for the Rose Club. When he said these things, I was really pissed off, and I wanted to leave. He said I could go, but he couldn’t guarantee that my niece wouldn’t know anything about me being an escort girl in KTV. He was a very sinister man, and he knew how to control other people under him. So, in order to prevent Yuou from knowing my past, I had to continue being a host and become more and more coquettish. ”
Li Ze had always thought that Liu Feifei was willing, but after hearing Liu Feifei’s words, Li Ze asked, “Then didn’t you think of leaving the Rose Club?”
“Forget it, I’m used to living like this anyway,” Liu Feifei said. “Besides, he’s absolutely not going to let me go until he finds a host better than me. As you said, I’m his mistress at present. He makes love with me when having a whim. If he’s in a bad mood, he might scold me. I’ve been waiting for the day he will get tired of me, so I can be free. But now, he hasn’t been tired of it, so I don’t know when I’ll be completely out of his control. ”
“He must be tired of your body,” said Li Ze, “but you can handle the members who are very rich. So you’re his cash cow. He couldn’t have kicked you away if that didn’t change. I tell you, the host is really crucial to the elective. As long as the hosting is well conducted, the member will be willing to raise his band. So I think that if you really want to get out of his control, the best way is to screw up the activity next time. Only in this way will he give you up and find another host.”
“You don’t have to worry about me. I still like the job.”
“What’s good about working like a cageling?”
“Actually, it’s not like a cageling ,” Liu Feifei said, “He doesn’t care about me, so I just need to spend two or three days every month at the Rose Club. As for the rest of the time, I’m free to arrange myself, so it’s actually quite nice. The worst thing of all, of course, is my relationship with Yuou. Li Ze, I’ve already told you about what your wife did in the club, so I hope you can keep your distance from Yuou. ”
“I’ll treat her like the way I treat other students.”
“That is enough.”
“Sister Fei, I still have a question to ask you.”
“What?”
“Who is the boss of the Rose Club?”
