Chapter 2204: Chapter 2268: It’s You
"Ask
if I’m a man, how can I let a woman pay? If I did that, she’d stop seeing . She criticized my sister harshly, even my mom couldn’t bring herself to scold her, but she kept nitpicking. She’s not even family yet and already trying to manage my sister. Damn, the thought makes
angry. She eventually found herself an old man, flaunted it to
one day, bragging about how much he spent on her and how generous he was. I told her as long as she’s happy, it’s fine. But not long after, she ran to
crying, saying the old man was just playing her, promised her things but gave nothing, even the diamond ring was fake. I was so pleased back then, she wanted to reconcile with , but I kicked her out. I’ve killed countless people, does she really think I’m an easy target?"
Li Yifei smiled and patted Li Ying on the shoulder, saying, "I’ve got your back, bro."
Li Ying scratched his head bashfully, saying, "Hey, boss, don’t laugh, I’m just a plain person living a normal life. You’ll find people like this everywhere. Eventually, I ca to understand—take it slow. Though I’m not young anymore and should get married and have children, if you don’t et the right one, don’t force it, or else everyone ends up hurt and unhappy! Recently, a friend introduced
to soone from the sa place as my family, but she’s from a rural area, working in Capital City. She’s decent-looking and seems nice, we’ve been in contact for so ti now."
"Well, why didn’t it go anywhere?" Li Yifei asked.
Li Ying shook his head with a bitter smile, saying, "She’s nice, can make herself a solid eight in looks, I like her a lot, but sadly, the timing’s not right."
"What do you an?"
"She finished middle school and didn’t continue, worked for two years in the provincial capital. Then a woman from her hotown brought her to Capital City, and she’s been working here since. My friend didn’t know her situation, thinking she was hard-working and decent, introduced her to . I thought since we ca from the sa place, our habits might be similar. But after eting twice, I found out she’s a damn working girl!" Li Ying said, his eyes even reddening a bit, seeing this, Li Yifei felt so emotion. Li Ying reacted this way, showing he’s deeply affected, yet upon hearing her profession, Li Yifei didn’t quite know how to console him, as for most n... it’s okay to play around, but marrying a prostitute... would take so courage.
Li Yifei knew many are not necessarily willing, having different reasons, but the majority of prostitutes choose this willingly. Why? Because splitting their legs makes money, and substantial money at that. They lack life skills, often born with good looks and physique, they rely on this to make money, or are only willing to depend on this to earn. What can you do about them?
Or, what can you say to them? Everyone has their freedom, each person’s life is different from the start, yet in the end, everyone chooses their own path. Though initially aided by others, there cos a ti for personal choice. If they choose this path, who can say anything?
Li Yifei has seen many prostitutes, so might have genuine hardships while others are content, even enjoying it. What can you say to them?
Including so recently dubbed ’companions’, ’models’, packaging themselves like stars, but in essence, aren’t they just upscale prostitutes? Li Yifei believes he has the standing to discuss this issue; in his private Twitter ssages, he receives several daily, from so-called female influencers or models, so having thousands or tens of thousands of followers, claiming various beauty titles, labeled beauties here and there. What do they do?
They directly send provocative, often revealing non-solicited photos to Li Yifei’s private ssages, accompanied by suggestive words, sotis even for free. The subtler ones send a few photos with a note, expressing admiration, hoping to connect, or extending invitations, suggesting Li Yifei visits certain cities where they could host him.
Entering their social space reveals lifestyles enviable to others, frequenting high-end venues, sharing motivational quotes, either traveling or indulging in food and leisure, seemingly having a great ti. But how many truly lead that life?
Li Yifei once was stunned by the term ’travel prostitute’ learned from Twitter, referring to influencers or models who accompany rich n while traveling, doing anything and everything.
Anyway, that’s beside the point. Watching Li Ying, whose eyes reddened, Li Yifei patted his shoulder, saying, "After all the trials, none might be genuine, take it slow."
"Boss, actually I really like her, but I truly can’t accept it. My family wouldn’t agree either, though my family is ordinary... personally, it’s sowhat fine, I don’t think she’s dirty, but after knowing each other for a while, she thinks I’m okay too, just when we were about to start dating, I rejected it. Because I’m afraid of falling for her, she’s been doing this for years now, not planning to change jobs, and that’s what I can’t stand. Though she earns well, is this a proper job? Making money by selling... spending such money makes
uneasy, even though she’s driving a small BMW, spending hundreds or thousands as routine, sigh." Li Ying says, unable to continue.
"Enough, brother, you’ll find a good woman and be happy. Actually, your ambitions aren’t big, finding soone you love and who loves you in return is enough." Li Yifei isn’t very good at offering advice to n, with won he’s adept, but when it cos to n, Li Yifei doesn’t know how to console them—have a drink, vent, if that’s not enough, have another drink...
Li Ying wiped his eyes, chuckling, saying, "Hey, it’s alright, just venting, boss, don’t take it to heart. If romance doesn’t work out, we’ll remain friends. If she needs help, I’m there. But romantically, it’s a definite no, there’s no room for negotiation."
Li Yifei nodded emphatically, saying, "Alright, as your elder brother, I won’t advise much, but I hope you rember one thing!"
"Boss, go ahead," Li Ying said solemnly.
Li Yifei said, "I’m very impressive now, you know that, I hope you all do well too. This hospitalization was unexpected, but I hope it marks a turning point for you. A man must have money, not just for himself, but for his family, for his parents, for your sister—you must have money. Forget the idle talk, in the coming days, think of a way to earn. Call on
as boss; I must help you once, but you only have one chance, so ponder well. When you have money, you’ll have plenty of choices about won. But I don’t want you to forget your true self, like . You know my personality over the years, playing around is fine, but once feelings are involved, I’m extrely serious. Though your sister-in-law is slightly more nurous, each is truly loved, and I strive to provide them the best life."
"Boss, I’ll think about it. Since you’ve spoken up, I won’t decline right away, I don’t want to seem impulsive."
"Just giving you ti to think, put simply, consider what you can do based on your abilities, the amount of money doesn’t matter, don’t restrict yourself. Treat this as the last task from your old captain, accomplish it perfectly."
"Yes!" Li Ying raised his right hand, saluting Li Yifei, but the motion was too big and pulled his wound.
"Be careful!" Li Yifei motioned with his chin, continuing, "Don’t thank , if you can achieve sothing for yourself, raise your family’s standard, it’ll make
happy. Otherwise, even if you kneel and kowtow, I’d still kick you."
"Hehe, I know, I’m stubborn like a mule, needing soone to steer . With the old captain’s order, I’m motivated. Actually, refusing that woman also stems from a bit of insecurity. She earns so much relying on ***, but , a mber of the Flying Hawk Squad, earn so little—having her support
is unacceptable to ."
"Indeed, there’s a psychological gap, so you have to work hard. To put it more bluntly, once you have money, you can buy your sister a car, it’ll make her charitable activities more convenient." Li Yifei said.
"Absolutely, that’s necessary. Haul a truckload of supplies for charity instead of scrimping and saving!" Li Ying said, laughing first, then Li Yifei followed suit.
While the two laughed, the door opened and a woman walked in. Li Yifei had his back turned, so he had to turn around, but Li Ying saw directly, lighting up his face, saying, "Sis, you’re back."
Huh? Li Yifei’s laughter abruptly stopped. Sis? Li Ying’s sister? Li Yifei suddenly went quiet, even a bit embarrassed, not daring to turn around imdiately, all because of the big mouth Li Ying had previously, making Li Yifei sowhat uneasy now.
Before the sister could speak, Li Ying waved, saying, "Co, sis, let
tell you, my old captain is visiting, co say hi!"
"Captain, this is the sister I often ntion to you, my sister, Wu Youu!" Li Ying spoke rapidly now, his enunciation crystal clear.
Li Yifei had no choice but to turn back, standing up and turning, curious inside; your last na is Li, your sister’s na is Wu Youu, what kind of naming is this? As his body turned halfway, Li Yifei saw a pair of shoes that seed familiar, seeing the legs, Li Yifei noticed the legs were long, indicating height, and seeing the owner of those legs, Li Yifei nearly exclaid, at least his mouth gaped open, eyes rounded, instinctively saying, "It’s you."
"It’s !" Wu Youu slightly tilted her head, her long braid swaying gently, big eyes blinking, hands behind her back, slightly bending her upper body. Li Yifei was surprised; she wasn’t.
Thus... Li Yifei realized, she’d recognized him from the start, hence the ’it’s you’ line; Li Yifei initially assud it was a female fan. Only to find out she’s Li Ying’s sister. Realizing this, Li Yifei laughed heartily.
