He chuckled, turned around, and bent down to pull a blanket over her when the girl suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck!
Their lips pressed tightly together, his eyes widening in surprise.
Her hands gripped his, guiding them toward her full breasts and the sensitive area between her thighs.
She breathed softly into his ear,
"I'm cold here, and there too.
Ajussi Pan, can you warm me up?"
After that, the two engaged in deep squats on the bed, recreating the exercise they'd done earlier at the gym.
"Ajussi Pan, you're so amazing... Here, have some water!"
Afterward, the girl got up and poured him a glass of water.
Seeing her so considerate, he felt an overwhelming urge that he couldn't marry anyone but her in this lifetime.
"Hmm…This water tastes a bit strange. What kind is it?"
"Just regular mineral water,"
The girl replied with a generous smile, her cheeks still flushed.
"Maybe it's because you just drank my... so..."
"Heh, probably."
Hearing this, he drank the entire glass without a second thought.
While he spoke, the girl grabbed her phone, sent a text, then locked the screen.
"Hey, I think I'm ready again..."
Naked, he swayed toward the equally bare girl, his four-inch member dangling.
"Help me out with licking my..."
"BANG!"
The door burst open in that instant, revealing several burly men wielding clubs and blades.
"Fuck! You bastard seduced my wife?
Fucked my wife?
You had the nerve to fuck my brother Yong's wife!?"
A man with menacing, triangular eyes pressed a knife against his throat.
The icy touch sent a chill through him, freezing his breath and shrinking his erection to a mere inch.
"How could she have a husband?
She said she was single..."
He pointed at the girl, who had pulled a sheet over herself, gritting his teeth in protest.
"You bitch! Did you tell him you didn't have a husband?"
The slanted-eyed man demanded harshly.
"I didn't!
I told him I was married!
But he kept pestering me, then drugged me..."
The girl turned cold and treacherous the moment it was over; she denied it with a shake of her head.
Hearing this, his heart sank.
Damn it!
He'd been played!
"Settle this privately or call the cops?"
The man with the triangular eyes gave his cheek a light slap.
"How do we settle this?"
His lips trembled as he cautiously asked.
"One million. Let's call it even."
"I... I don't have that kind of money..."
He glanced at the man, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.
"Useless piece of shit!
Not even a million!"
Triangle Eyes slapped him hard across the face.
"Say it! How much the hell do you have!?"
"Let me get dressed first..."
His left cheek was slightly swollen, but his head felt dizzy.
He needed to get dressed first.
"My bank cards are all here. I don't know the exact amount."
He pulled on his clothes and handed over his wallet.
"What's the PIN?"
Demanded the man with the triangular eyes.
"Let me go, and I'll..."
The dizziness intensified.
The drugs were taking effect, slowly robbing him of consciousness...
When he awoke, he found himself dead, trapped near a grave mound, unable to move far....
Robbery and murder, gang activity?
Their characteristics fit perfectly as raw material for resentful blood.
...
Around 10 PM, Tao Bai walked into a gym called Five Star Power.
Only a handful of people were working out inside.
Closing time was half an hour away.
The front desk attendant sported a sharp crop of hair, thick eyebrows, and small eyes.
A cigarette dangled from his mouth as he wore a small white tank top stretched taut over his muscles.
"Coach, how much for a workout session?"
"Annual pass is 500, quarterly pass is 200, monthly pass is 120. A single session is 15 yuan without a membership."
The man exhaled smoke through his nose, then propped his hands on the low counter, pinching the cigarette between his fingers.
He eyed Tao Bai, dressed like a Taoist priest, up and down and asked suspiciously,
"Working out in that outfit? First time here, huh?"
"Uh, yeah, first time."
"First-timers need to be careful about a lot of things, or you could strain your muscles.
Want me to assign you a female instructor to teach you how to work out?"
"Oh, how much would that cost?"
"Well, look at that female instructor over there. What do you think?"
He tilted his chin toward a girl practicing aerobics and asked,
"Pretty hot, huh?"
"Wow..."
Taobai followed his gaze and feigned swallowing hard.
But the woman did look just like the company executive had described.
The front desk attendant noticed Taobai's subtle swallow and felt a surge of smug satisfaction.
The only question was—
Was this lamb fat enough?
"Is she a permanent instructor here?"
Tao Bai asked.
"Yes."
"How much does she charge for private lessons?"
"One hundred yuan per session."
"I see."
Tao Bai reached into his pocket, pulled out two thousand yuan, and handed it to the front desk.
"Then I'll pay for a year's membership and fifteen private lessons upfront."
"Fill out this form."
The front desk attendant, still chuckling to herself, handed him a registration form and a pen.
Tao Bai wrote down the name "Wang Fugui" on the form, filling in random ID and phone numbers.
"Wang Fugui... Ha ha..."
The front desk attendant, who had been quietly amused, couldn't hold back any longer upon hearing the name.
He burst out laughing:
"Bro, that name really suits you!
No wonder you're so loaded!
What does your family do?"
"Farming."
"I don't buy it."
"Honestly, farming...
A month ago, I won the lottery jackpot.
I bought a house and just moved to the city."
"How much did you win?"
"The Double Color Ball jackpot. What do you think, buddy?"
Tao Bai curled his lip, looking utterly disinterested.
Hearing this, the front desk attendant was overjoyed inside.
This was a super fat sheep!!!
"Annual membership... 15 private training sessions...
All set!
Go warm up over there first, I'll go get your beautiful instructor."
Tao Bai began by moving his head in the private training area, then worked on his wrists, followed by his waist and hips, and stretched his legs.
A girl with a high ponytail, dressed in high-end yoga gear and possessing a lovely face, glided toward him, carrying a faint, sweet fragrance.
Back then, yoga pants were a niche fashion choice, worn by only a handful of girls to the gym.
"Hi, Brother Wang!"
A sweet voice called out from behind him. Tao Bai turned his head and began to study her features closely.
She was about half a head shorter than he, roughly 5'5", with a classic oval face.
Her thick, arched eyebrows were long and curved, with several hairs at the roots standing up like arrows.
Her large eyes had a distinct lower white area, especially noticeable when she looked up at Tao Bai.
Her skin was coated in a layer of powder, making her appear very fair, while her lips were painted a blood-red hue—
Both achievements of cosmetics.
To the casual observer, she might seem beautiful.
But to Tao Bai, her eyebrows, eyes, slightly high cheekbones, and pointed chin were all flaws.
Her skin wasn't particularly good either.
Dark circles beneath her eyes were faintly visible beneath the makeup...
