Chapter 15 Prohibition

• "I don't know either. Maybe he'll come looking for me after he regrets it," Li Zhenzhen said with envy.
• Li Zhenzhen looked at her with admiration and said, "Actually, it's not bad to sell your first time to someone like Ling Shao. At least he's handsome and rich. If he's gentle in that aspect, it's not a bad deal. It's better than selling to those disgusting old men."
• In fact, Lu Mianxin agreed with this point. She heard that the men who came here to play were all middle-aged men, either bald or with yellow teeth, or beer bellies.
• Men like Ling Xuan, tall and handsome, were rare. If she could win his favor, maybe she could quickly earn enough money and leave the Imperial Court, away from Qiao Yechen's place.
• "Forget about me, what about you? What happened last night?"
• "Did anything happen to you last night?" Lu Lianxin felt a bit embarrassed to ask about this kind of thing, but she was curious and wanted to know what it felt like for the first time. Would it be painful? Would it be as heart-wrenching and bloody as they said online?
• Li Zhenzhen smiled awkwardly and said, "Actually, I'm glad I escaped a disaster. Two people suddenly started fighting last night, and then it ended. I only got the money, but didn't accompany the client. I was quite nervous, not knowing what it would feel like for the first time. And the person who wanted me last night was actually quite ugly. Just the thought of giving my first time to a man like him made me sick. If I wasn't really in need of money, I wouldn't have done it. I've already talked to the manager. After the first time, I won't take clients anymore. I hope the manager can arrange a good-looking man for me in the future, at least someone who doesn't make me feel disgusted. That way, I won't be left with too much trauma. After selling my first time, I'll only work as a waitress or accompany guests, but I won't sell myself anymore."
• Lu Mianxin nodded. She also wished she could choose what kind of work she wanted to do, but Qiao Yechen wanted to torment her and make her sleep with all the male clients in the Imperial Court. He would be happy only if she did that.
• And it wasn't easy for her to earn that money.
• Ten million yuan, how many men would she have to sleep with to earn that?
• If she could do well and earn a fee of ten thousand yuan per appearance, she would still have to sleep with a thousand men. How could she earn that much money in just three months? How many days were there in total?
• Every time she thought about this, she felt despair.
• She used to think she had a little hope, but now she felt like she was being naive.
• A person like Qiao Yechen, if he really wanted to retaliate against her, how could he give her a chance to escape?
• In the end, it was just a game to him. He gave her hope, then slowly destroyed it, and finally made her lose herself in despair.
• This man was so terrifying. She had always thought that the previous Yechen brother was a good person.
• It turned out that all those so-called goodness was just a facade. In reality, his heart was so dark and sinister that it terrified her.
• In the evening, Lu Mianxin and Li Zhenzhen changed into their Imperial Court uniforms and prepared to follow the manager's arrangements for today's work.
• Li Zhenzhen was assigned to accompany a client for drinks today.
• As for what would happen later, it was completely up to her.
• The other princesses and girls in the lounge had all left, leaving only Lu Mianxin alone.
• Lu Mianxin was actually very nervous. She resisted the idea of accompanying clients for drinks or doing other things.
• But she was desperate to earn money. If she didn't do anything, she wouldn't have any chance at all.
• If she had to choose between sleeping with men and being tormented by Qiao Yechen, she might choose the former. At least there was a chance to escape. If she chose to stay here forever, her life would be ruined.
• She was only eighteen years old. She still had decades of life ahead of her. Did she have to spend her entire life from eighteen to old age like this?
• She didn't want to live such a dark and hopeless life. So when the manager walked in again, she immediately stood up and asked, "Why didn't you assign me any work today?"
• The manager glanced at her casually, seemingly not taking her seriously.
• There were many girls here who asked the manager for good assignments. If the client was rich or good-looking, they would be assigned to those girls who could benefit from it.
• Lu Mianxin had nothing to offer, and there were no instructions or indications from above to assign her to anyone.
• Naturally, the manager didn't want to give her any work, especially since there were orders not to allow Lu Mianxin to take any clients recently.
• "If you can't get any work, you should think about whether you've offended someone. Otherwise, you'll just be sitting on the bench here. I'm not allowed to assign you any work. If you have the ability, go find work yourself."
• Lu Mianxin looked at the manager in surprise, not knowing who had blacklisted her. Could it be Qiao Yechen?
• "Who asked you to do this? Is it Qiao Yechen?"
• The manager had never seen the boss behind the scenes and didn't know if Qiao Yechen was their ultimate backer.
• "I don't know about that. I have work to do, don't waste my time."
• After saying that, the manager huffed and pushed open the door, walking out.
• Lu Mianxin wanted to confront Qiao Yechen. This man was simply insane. He gave her such a condition but didn't assign her any work. Wasn't he just playing with her?
• No, she couldn't just sit and wait for her fate. She couldn't accept it. She needed to find Qiao Yechen now.
• She rushed out of the lounge, only to realize that she didn't have Qiao Yechen's phone number or any contact information. She had no idea where to find him.
• She suddenly felt a sense of despair and confusion. Qiao Yechen was the boss of the Imperial Court. If he didn't speak up, no one would dare to assign her any work.
• She thought of one person, Emily.
• Yes, she would go find Emily. She would definitely help her find Qiao Yechen.
• So she went to Emily's office and knocked on the door. She heard a lazy female voice from inside, "Come in."
• Lu Mianxin pushed open the office door and walked in. Emily was painting her nails and looked a bit lazy. When she saw Lu Mianxin, her eyes visibly darkened.
• "Do you have something to find me for?"
• Lu Mianxin was actually quite nervous and a bit afraid of Emily. After all, she was still scared from their previous encounter.
