"You are okay?" asked Edward Rich. "Your face is a little pale. Are you not feeling well?"
Siu Sean shook her head. Then immediately get out of the back seat. "No-no. I'm fine..." she said, then looked at the chalkboard-sized "THE SCUTTES" sign that was hung large in front of the bar's second-floor balcony. "If you don't get enough rest, yes. I haven't slept all day."
"Why?"
They stare at each other.
Siu Sean smiled wryly. "Thinking about this night that feels like a dream."
"Haha... Want me to cheer you up?" offered Edward Rich.
"Can you?"
Siu Sean said so, but her face looked difficult to understand.
Edward Rich smiled. Then suddenly pulled Siu Sean by the neck and left a kiss in the crook of her neck.
Just a glance. But Siu Sean immediately got goosebumps.
"Why Zhu Feilong..." Edward Rich muttered. Looks very regretful about the struggle for the best in his life. "If I could replace him, everything would be perfect."
Siu Sean was stunned. "Edward..." she felt Edward Rich's kiss there. "No need to say that. I... It's just a job, got it? Like you too."
"But Zhu Feilong will be the first, right?"
DEG
In bed, yes.
Siu Sean blushed slightly, but she couldn't say anything.
"Who am I? I'm nobody ..." said Edward Rich. "But Zhu Feilong has it all. Is it weird if I'm worried that the girl I'm after won't fall for her."
Siu Sean was getting goosebumps. Her neck became cold. It was as if the night wind had just blown at that point, but no matter how much Edward Rich showed concern... Siu Sean felt the man didn't need to overdo it.
"Ed..." said Siu Sean. "You want to kiss?"
DEG
"What?"
"If so, let me now..." said Siu Sean. "Don't you want me to be your girl? But when I go in there . . . All I see is no longer you. Got it?"
"Ah..." Edward Rich sighed. Understand. "So it's really okay now?"
Siu Sean nodded. "Yes," she said. Then laughed a little. "You know, I've always hated sassy people. That's why when I was in the library I got angry. But if you'd let me, I might be more accepting."
"Oh..."
Exasperated, Siu Sean pinched Edward Rich's waist in exasperation. "So yes or not? Don't make me regret offering you. You..."
Edward Rich was silent. Instead of making the atmosphere fluid, seeing Siu Sean's laughter actually emptied the man's mind.
"Sean..."
"Yes?"
Edward Rich had brought their lips together before Siu Sean had digested anything.
"Umph!"
Siu Sean was wide-eyed. But Edward Rich deepened the quite wetness.

Siu Sean suddenly felt like someone else. Right after Edward Rich's kiss ended, Madam Rho Vin miraculously picked up Siu Sean out. Next to the middle-aged woman, four Dragqueen dancers swayed like the world's most effeminate bodyguards. They even wore lingerie without underwear and high-heels that were as high as seven to nine inches. Oh, my God... It's really amazing.
Siu Sean was stunned for a moment looking at the dancers instead of listening to Madam Rho Vin's instructions.
"...do you hear?" asked Madam Rho Vin. As if suddenly, but in fact some of the material she said was like a series of lectures by the lecturer in class.
Siu Sean blinked in confusion. "Eh? Yes?"
"Oh my... You're not listening, are you?" asked one of the dancers named tag Bobby Betty. Oh, normal. That's his night name. And maybe because of the excitement, the Bobby Betty immediately snapped her fingers. "That's it. Come on guys... Take her inside and dress her up. We don't have much time!" he exclaimed.
The other three Dragqueen dancers nodded and did so. They pulled Siu Sean's hand. Making Siu Sean squeal in surprise for a moment before being "Shhhhhhh..." by one of them right on the lips. The index finger pressed against Siu Sean's lips and made Edward Rich's eyes narrow slightly at the girl's side.
Siu Sean was silent. The girl only glanced at Edward Rich with a worried look before then led the four of them into the bar. Meanwhile, Edward Rich faced Madam Rho Vin alone.
"Good job, boys!" cried Madam Rho Vin. Then she looked at Edward Rich with a questioning face. "Oh, yeah... If I may ask, who are you? Her boyfriend?"
Edward Rich cleared his throat for a moment before holding out his hand. "Yeah..." he said. "My name is Edward Rich. Please treat my girl well. And if I may, I'll be keeping an eye on her here."
"Hmph..." snorted Madam Rho Vin. But she still shook Edward Rich's hand as if he were an important client. "Congratulations and sorry girl I will sell you tonight. So please understand each other. Deal?"
Edward Rich nodded. "Deal. But don't expect me to give you more chances if you mess with her."
"Haha..." Madam Rho Vin laughed as she let go of the handshake. "But if she wants to after being offered money, what then?"
Instead of showing emotion, Edward Rich immediately put his hands in his pants pockets. Refrain from clenching.
"I'm sure Sean-Sean isn't that kind of girl," said Edward Rich. "She's only here to ask for help, but she also helps you. So please don't be presumptuous. She has no intention of working here too long, just so you know."
Madam Rho Vin grinned faintly. "Hmph, really?" she asked. "That's a great love story, if that's the case."
Edward Rich really wanted to say something rude at once.
"Certain."
"Let's just prove it, understand?"
Edward Rich really wanted to gag this woman's mouth if he could.
"Okay."
And they separated after that.
Madam Rho Vin came in, while Edward Rich cursed his heart out first before kicking an innocent pebble nearby. BRAKH!
FUCK!!
FUCKING BITCH PIMP!
But Edward Rich immediately put on a calm face again after seeing The Scuttes' customers who were just proliferating.
They huddled together, bursting into laughter and talking about Christmas all the way inside.
Oh... Crazy...
Edward Rich had never felt so jealous before. Arrgghhh...!!
Because everything is about money. Money, money, money and money. How to fight that one other than selling yourself?
Edward Rich suddenly regretted that he had not been a professional gigolo all along. Not just a host who accompanies drinking and chatting... Or just accepting bed work outside the scope of his work.
"Siu Sean..."
Because if so... Because if he was able to help Siu Sean, things wouldn't be this difficult.
"Forgive me..."
