154 A MAN OF WORD PART 2

The next day, Louis went to the host club before Xue Lin. He wore a fancy sky blue colored shirt and a white blazer. He knew this place for years and knew many customers since he had his ways with the girls before. 

Since this host club was for rich people, it was luxurious. After entering the room, Louis saw a spacious hall. There were six round tables and soft couches were placed around them. There were six chandeliers above the six round tables. The wall was dyed in cream color and the floor was covered with red carpet. There were some pictures hanging on the wall and also some large statues and flower vases on the floor. There was a bar across the hall. 

There were six hosts in the host club. They were gathered together at the bar counter and chatting. The customers had yet to come. Seeing Louis after so long, they cheered. 

One of the hosts named Alex looked at the direction of the entrance. "Hey isn't that Louis?"

"Yours truly, at your service," Louis bowed dramatically.

William saw Louis and cheerfully asked, "Louis, how have you been?"

Louis replied, "As good as new."

"It's a pleasant surprise seeing you here," Rudy was the most senior among the hosts. "What's the occasion?"

"Didn't your boss tell you?" Louis asked back with raised eyebrows while sitting beside him. 

Rudy looked at him while trying to remember if his boss had said anything at all about Louis' arrival. He had a good memory. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head. "I heard nothing about the reason for you coming here."

'That jerk!' Louis cursed 'the boss' in his mind and told Rudy, "I'm here to participate in a competition."

"What kind of competition?" Jude asked. Other hosts became curious as well and looked at Louis.

"Someone challenged me that he could make more women fall for him than me. So, I challenged him," Louis explained but he mentioned Xue Lin as a man since the boss didn't say anything.

William laughed out loud. "What? A man said that he was better than you in that aspect? Who's he? I want to see him."

Louis didn't look that worried. "Don't worry. He is coming tonight. We will hold a 'Three-night being a Host' contest."

"Did you make a bet?" Nash spoke. He talked the least among the hosts.

Louis smirked. "Of course, we did. If he loses, he will pay me two billion US dollars."

Alex gasped. He commented, "That's a lot of money. He must be quite rich."

Louis relaxed on his seat and replied, "He is nothing compared to me. However, the person who is behind him has got some money."

William asked, "Who is the person behind him?" the more he heard about the mysterious boy, the more he got intrigued about him.

Louis moved his hand. "You have to ask him about that. I don't want to disclose his personal life." It's not that he didn't want to, he didn't dare to.

Louis coughed. "Don't even make a joke about it. You guys might lose your lives." His warning wasn't a simple jest.

William exclaimed, "Wow! So, that sugar mommy is very powerful."

Lucas asked, "What will happen if he wins?" Even a cold host like him became interested in the mysterious boy as well.

Louis answered, "If he wins I will give him a ten percent share of my company."

"Hey, hey, are you serious?" William almost stood up from his seat. Others were also surprised. Ten percent of Louis' company share wasn't just ten golden eggs. It was more expensive than ten platinum eggs. 

Nash frowned deeply and asked, "Who planned the bet?"

"I did the two million US dollars bet and he did the ten percent share bet." Louis got his wine and sipped on the glass.

Jade carefully asked, "Don't you think you should be wary of him? He seems pretty confident to me."

Louis casually said, "Ah, don't get too worked up. He is a 'nobody'. No girl knows him. I, on the other hand, am popular among every type of woman." Years of experience made him confident about his skill in wooing women.

"…If you say so, Louis. I don't know I could be as relaxed if I were you." Rudy patted his shoulder. Although he was the number one host in this host club, even he wouldn't bet on something like that. He thought that if that mysterious boy was confident enough to bet on something so huge, he could be someone extraordinary.

Alex said, "I think you guys are overthinking it. Since Louis is confident that he can win, he will win. We didn't see that boy but Louis did. He knows what kind of a person he is dealing with, right? Also, that boy has a sugar mommy. He sounds like a brat who would waste a sugar mommy's money. He is all about attitude and words. I can tell for sure that he will lose. What can a gigolo do in front of a host?"

Others also started agreeing with him.

Louis paused before saying, "I wouldn't say that to be honest." His voice was low. He hoped that there was no speaker for certain someone to hear what they were talking about. Otherwise, he wouldn't know what to do to save them all.

Alex looked at the wristwatch and mockingly said, "So, when is the mysterious gigolo coming? It's almost time to open the club."

Just then, a man with a short height entered the host club. He was wearing a black shirt and the top two buttons were unbuttoned. He was wearing a pair of black pants and black shoes. There was a digital watch on his left wrist and some rubber bands on his right wrist. There was a pair of small silver earrings hanging from his ears. His short hair was slightly disheveled.
