Never explicitly tell the other person where you are. Let them ask first, so you can maintain complete control of the conversation.
Late at night, if a man only says he's out, he's either eating a late-night snack or on his way to eat one!
This was also something Uncle Tuo taught me.
Back then, I thought the meaning of "eating a late-night snack" was just its literal meaning.
It wasn't until Uncle Tuo said, "Food and sex are natural desires," that I realized his "eating a late-night snack" had a deeper meaning.
As expected, as soon as I said I was out, Han Jinlun immediately asked, "Brother Xiang, it's been several days since you returned from Jinling, why didn't you think of coming to hang out with me?"
"Don't tell me you forgot, we're comrades who fought battles together!"
"Oh, sorry, I forgot! You were fighting with the Five Finger Maidens!"
"Even so, you can't forget about me, your comrade! You didn't even remember to call me when you went out to have fun!"
Hearing this, after a brief pause, I replied directly, "I've been busy with something outside these past few days."
As soon as I said I was busy, Han Jinlun's tone became less enthusiastic, and he said dejectedly, "Then forget it."
"I was going to invite you and Cheng Minglang to sing at Golden Peach Blossom Garden."
"Right, if you're busy, I won't bother you then."
Sensing that Han Jinlun was about to hang up, I said meaningfully, "What could I be busy with? Besides eating a late-night snack at this hour, what else is there to do?"
"Then go ahead and eat! I'm not interested in eating late-night snacks," Han Jinlun replied listlessly.
Although Han Jinlun didn't understand the true meaning of eating a late-night snack, I had successfully piqued his interest.
With that in mind, I directly retorted, "What if I told you I was eating a late-night snack at a club?"
Upon hearing my words, Han Jinlun on the other end of the phone fell silent.
After about a minute…
"Brother Xiang, you know, even though I don't like eating late-night snacks, I like girls who eat late-night snacks."
"…………"
I remained silent.
Seeing my silence, Han Jinlun on the phone became anxious, "Uh, Brother Xiang... are you, are you in a convenient situation there?"
"If it's convenient, can you bring me along!"
As I expected, this guy Han Jinlun took the bait!
Logically, the fewer people who know about what I need to do, the better. But everyone has their own specialty.
Conquering women is not my strong suit.
Although Han Jinlun might not be an expert in this area, he is lewd, cheap, and unrestrained enough.
With the addition of money, Han Jinlun can completely unleash his true nature and be utterly decadent!
This is much better than the taciturn Cheng Minglang.
Moreover, and most importantly, as Han Jinlun said earlier, we are comrades who fought together, and there is a certain foundation of trust between us.
You can't warm a heart that's not meant to be warmed, nor can you tame a wild wolf!
After suffering losses from Qin Lei, I no longer hold any hope for strangers.
On the crucial matter of the Thousand Kings Token, rather than spending time and effort to recruit new people, it's better to find Han Jinlun, with whom I have a certain level of trust, to help.
To be honest, the "two-pronged approach" strategy I mentioned to Cheng Minglang before I even came in was actually planned for Han Jinlun.
Even if Han Jinlun hadn't called me tonight, I would have called him.
Previously, letting Cheng Minglang come in with ten thousand yuan to have fun was just a temporary measure due to a lack of manpower.
I never expected that by throwing ten thousand yuan, Cheng Minglang would bring me any significant results or pleasant surprises.
After all, young men in their early twenties are at an age where they care a lot about saving face.
I couldn't just say to Cheng Minglang's face, "You're not good at interacting and talking with women, go home and play with your expandable baton!"
………………
Seeing that Han Jinlun had fallen for it, I revealed the name of the club: Yun Jin Club.
When I was about to tell Han Jinlun that Yun Jin Club was actually in Xingjia City, Zhejiang Province, and that if we couldn't have a late-night snack tonight, we could continue tomorrow…
I suddenly realized that Han Jinlun had directly hung up the phone!
Is he that impatient!?
At that moment, a very complex emotion arose in my heart.
Could this guy be a human pile driver? That while he's driving, he forgets all about important matters?
Little did I know, it was this phone call tonight that brought me my second companion after Cheng Minglang.
Thus, the rudimentary form of this Thousand Men's Gate small team, led by me, was finally established…
Depressed, I put my phone back into my pocket and noticed that the bodyguard who had led the way had already silently walked to the door of an office ahead.
And at this moment, the other party was glaring at me with dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, I quickly quickened my pace.
When I stood at the door, the bodyguard gently knocked three times on the closed door.
Knock, knock, knock…
Before the knocking sound had even completely finished, a clear female voice came from inside the room.
"Enter."
As I followed the bodyguard into the room, I saw an extremely tall woman dressed in a sharp OL outfit, standing sideways by the office window, gazing at the bustling night view outside.
"Boss!"
The moment I saw the woman, the bodyguard pointed at me and said, "This is the one who came to apply for the male escort position tonight."
Hearing this, the woman's cool, side profile instantly turned towards me.
Although there wasn't a breathtaking moment when the woman turned around, her overall appearance and dress were still considered top-notch.
However, her eyes were very sharp.
Within that sharpness, there was a hint of disdain.
Is she… that Yun Jin?
Didn't Uncle Tuo say that Yun Jin was his old flame?
How can she still look so young if she's an old flame?
Even though an OL outfit can make a woman's overall appearance look more mature, the woman in front of me… is no more than twenty-five years old at most!
This was the first thought that popped into my mind upon seeing the woman.
While I was discreetly observing the woman, she was openly scrutinizing me.
After a series of cold glances swept over me, the woman turned and sat back down in her office chair.
Seeing this, the bodyguard understood immediately and withdrew from the room without hesitation.
With a slight sound of the door closing, only the woman and I were left in the office.
The office where this woman, suspected to be Yun Jin, was located was extremely luxurious.
The entire set of rosewood desk and chairs, bookshelf, coat rack, paired with a high-end wine cabinet, Gongfu tea set, and leather sofa, as well as a large independent commercial safe, all showcased the earning power of Yun Jin Club.
As my gaze darted around, the woman, suspected to be Yun Jin, suddenly spoke.
