Chapter 44: Chapter 41 Gray Wolf BarZhang Lu looked around carefully, and indeed discovered something unusual. The surveillance was very well-hidden, but she still found some traces. Given her professional instincts, she had observed her surroundings the first time she came to the villa, but didn’t notice anything special at the time, so she hadn’t realized the well-concealed surveillance setup.

    "What kind of villa installs surveillance? Doesn’t that make people feel uncomfortable? It doesn’t have the slightest feel of home, more like a prison under constant watch," Zhang Lu muttered with displeasure.

    "To make people comfortable, of course it’s hidden very well. I installed the surveillance to keep track of my sister’s daily life, not to monitor unrelated people," Chu Biyao chuckled. She wasn’t bothered by Zhang Lu’s discontent and continued to tease, "Interested in seeing your own awkward moments? They are quite charming."

    "I won’t be as boring as you," Zhang Lu turned her face away.

    "Who? Who made Officer Zhang look bad?" Shen Yahut got interested, eagerly wanting to know the answer.

    "I have a video on my phone, want to see it?" Chu Biyao said with a smile.

    "I want to, I have to see it," Shen Yahut was extremely eager.

    "I’m not showing it to you," Chu Biyao rolled her eyes.

    "Come on, show it to me," Shen Yahut stuck out her tongue.

    Zhang Lu couldn’t sit still and said in a deep voice, "Delete it, don’t make me angry."

    Shen Yahut immediately quieted down. Since Zhang Lu said so, no matter how curious she was, she could only suppress it. Zhang Lu was a tough character, and she didn’t want to bring trouble upon herself.

    "We’re all women, why so serious? It’s no fun," Chu Biyao made a face, mocking them.

    Chu Biyao’s joke made Chu Mengyao feel slightly better.

    Seeing Chu Mengyao still looking gloomy, Chu Biyao said helplessly, "Alright, sister, don’t be so gloom. If Ye Fan dares not to come back, I’ll put up a missing person notice. With my reputation, as long as I issue a warrant online, promising a huge reward to whoever finds Ye Fan, along with a few autographed photos, the people nationwide will eagerly search for Ye Fan. At that time, he’d be like a rat crossing the street. Even if Ye Fan hides in the sewer, he won’t escape my people’s search."

    "Missing person notice? Has Ye Fan been kidnapped?"

    "Warrant? Ye Fan hasn’t committed any crimes!"

    "A rat crossing the street? Is that how you find someone?"

    "Autographed photos, you really dare to imagine."

    Shen Yahut was full of doubts. Chu Biyao’s words were so disjointed that it was hard to keep up.

    "You can’t expect ivory from a dog’s mouth," Chu Mengyao complained.

    "Oh, to defend a man, you dare to speak to your dear sister like that, you deserve a beating." Chu Biyao pounced, reaching her hands toward Chu Mengyao’s armpits.

    ...

    Gray Wolf Bar.

    Raucous music roared on stage, where sharply dressed dancers twisted their explosive figures.

    Ye Fan walked into the bar and found a dark corner to sit in.

    He didn’t know what was happening in the villa; he wanted some peace, which is why he came to the bar.

    Compared to the wild music, the corner where Ye Fan sat was dark and gloomy, just like his cold past life. Sear?h the N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    After driving away several people with ulterior motives, Ye Fan’s corner became quiet, and no one dared to bother him again.

    In a room on the third floor of the bar, a woman wielding a knife absentmindedly stared at the surveillance screen. The scene in Ye Fan’s corner caught her attention, her eyes sparkling with intense light.

    She was Qiu Wen, the owner of Gray Wolf Bar, known in the streets as Sister Knife.

    Qiu Wen was clad in leather, beautifully elegant but mixed with a wild ferocity.

    "Biaozi, keep an eye on the man in the corner. If he’s from the Fierce Tiger Gang causing trouble, cripple his legs and throw him out," Qiu Wen ordered coldly, exuding a unique aura of lethality.

    "Yes, Sister Knife," agreed a burly man with fierce eyes, bowing behind Qiu Wen.

    The Fierce Tiger Gang is the only large gang in DF City’s underworld. Other small sideshows don’t even have the arrogance before them; whenever the Fierce Tiger Gang acts, other underground small forces follow suit, not having the courage to say no.

    The Third Gang Leader of the Fierce Tiger gang had his sights set on Qiu Wen and her lover, wanting to take them for himself. He’s already sent men to destroy Gray Wolf Bar and intended to capture Qiu Wen and her lover for ruthless torment.

    Three skirmishes had occurred in the shadows. To prevent the Fierce Tiger Gang from causing more trouble, Qiu Wen stayed vigilant. To minimize losses, she gathered all the muscle she could muster around her, ready to strike forcefully at any sign of trouble.

    Qiu Wen also knew that it was difficult for Gray Wolf Bar to go up against the underground monster that was the Fierce Tiger Gang. However, she would never surrender, abandon her business, or allow herself to become anyone’s plaything. She would rather resist to the death.

    Qiu Wen’s lover is a woman, also in the bar, named Lu Xuehong, known in the streets as ’Red Sister.’ The two are a same-sex couple.

    ...

    A bar server noticed Ye Fan. Just as a skinny girl was about to offer him menu services, another woman took over the task and said to the skinny girl, "Lan Jie, let me serve him."

    "Juanjuan, why? Are you interested in him?" The skinny girl was puzzled.

    "No, Lan Jie, I know him," Juanjuan replied.

    "Oh, then you go ahead. Be careful not to get in trouble," reminded the skinny girl.

    "I know," Juanjuan nodded in agreement.

    Juanjuan was none other than Ye Juanjuan. In need of money, even though she became the manager of the True Beauty Building, she worked as a sales promoter at the bar after work to make ends meet.
