I held Lu Wei's hand with both of my hands and forced out a few words, "Someone doesn't want to pay …"

Lu Wei released his grip on me and I fell onto the ground. I, who was breathing normally, coughed a few times.

I sat on the floor and didn't dare to relax as I held back my coughing. I pointed towards the direction of the reception and told Lu Wei, "There's someone over there who doesn't want to pay. My sisters asked me to come and find help."

As soon as Lu Wei heard that I was taking up the money, he immediately stood up and told Ban Jun to go over and take a look. The squad was the first to leave the house, and as Lu Wei was walking towards the door, I stood up and forced myself to follow him.

However, I was still afraid that I would be distracted, so when Lu Wei suddenly stopped in front of the door, I bumped into him.

Like a frightened rabbit, I hastily bowed and apologized to Lu Wei, saying that I did not do it on purpose.

Lu Wei tilted his head and glared at me. He asked me what I had just seen.

Although I didn't understand why he had such a huge reaction, I could feel that he was very cautious about this matter. I hastily shook my head like a rattle drum, repeatedly emphasizing that I didn't see anything. This was the first lie in my life, but I knew that this lie could save my life.

And the beginning of a lie, my life has opened up more lies, because here, lies are always better than the truth.

But from Lu Wei's eyes, I could tell that he didn't believe my lies and fiercely warned me not to say a single word of what I saw today, or else he would kill me.

I hastened to say that I saw nothing and had nothing to say.

Only then did Lu Wei feel satisfied and walked towards the place where his sisters were waiting to receive their guests. I followed behind Lu Wei. By the time we arrived, the old man had already been dragged out of Caifeng's room.

Seeing that it was real, the old man finally revealed his fear. Although he had been beaten black and blue by the army and begged for mercy, he was still unable to take out a single cent.

The soldier took a switchblade from his back pocket and pushed the old man to his knees. He told the old man to take off his pants, saying that he would cut off the bottom of the old man's pants to keep his memory.

As soon as the soldier's voice fell, we smelled a stench of pimple, and when we looked at the old man's wet crotch, the soldier cursed him in disgust, then kicked him on the shoulder.

After all, the old man was too old for a few blows, and he was already groaning on the ground.

Lu Wei became annoyed and told his unit to beat him half to death before throwing him out. He even specifically instructed that if this old man didn't return the money in the future, they would beat him up every time they saw him.

I don't know what happened to the old man after that, because I didn't dare to keep watching. The scene of the red clouds became a barrier in my heart, and I entered the building ahead of time.

When I passed Caifeng's cubicle again, I saw her sitting in the doorway crying. She complained to her other sisters that she had had a hard time accepting a guest and had been played for nothing.

As I walked past her, I heard the other sisters still persuading her.

Actually, all the women here are quite old, and Hong Sis is in her early thirties, so she can be considered young. I only gradually learned later that this place is called Red Lane, because the fees here are very cheap.

Because it was cheap, anyone with a bit of beauty wouldn't work here. Only women with poor looks or old age would work here, but even with this little money, they would split with Lu Wei. 4: 6, Lu Wei accounted for 60%.

When I saw that the Red Sister was not in the room, I took the clothes and a face plate that she had given me yesterday. I washed myself in the washroom before daring to go in to stay so that the Red Sister wouldn't be displeased to see me dirty.

I took out the handkerchief wrapped around my clothes and gently stroked it. Remembering the boy who gave me the cake today, I couldn't help but forget many unhappy things.

I don't know how long I stared blankly at him. If it wasn't for Hong Sis who opened the door and entered, I might have continued watching him. Thinking back, I'm afraid that I might have forgotten his face.

When the Red Sister saw what I was holding, she glanced at me but didn't say anything.

I asked her what the small words on the handkerchief were. She looked at it and told me that the words on it were Luo Tianyu.

Today, I heard that person called Yi Fei call him Tianyu, so Luo Tianyu should be his complete name. I was extremely happy to know that person's complete name, and as I read these three words, I carefully put them in my heart.

Elder sister Hong was in a bad mood today. Her eyes were a little red. She had made a quilt early on and laid down with her back facing me. As I lay beside her, I could hear my nose twitching from time to time.

I could feel that the elder sister was crying, but I didn't know why. I got up and gave her a towel, carefully placed it in front of her, and lay flat on my back, trying my best to make the elder sister ignore my existence.

It took a while for the Red Sister to use the towel I gave her. She said to me, Girl, this is not a place for people.

My hands were gripping the quilt tightly. I asked Sister Hong, if I were to leave this place, would I be beaten to death like the red clouds?

The elder sister fell silent for a while. Her clear voice sounded more like she was talking to herself. It might be a relief to say that she was dead.

Although I am young, but my understanding of this sentence is not necessarily weaker than the elder sister Hong, because I was also so close to death, more deeply hoped that I would die. But as long as there was a sliver of hope to live, who would really hope to die?

Upstairs, a man's voice called out, echoing the sounds from next door, making it hard for me to sleep. However, there were only a few sounds upstairs and nothing more happened. Following that, elder sister Hong and I heard the sound of someone running down the wooden stairs.

Our door was suddenly pulled open. Sister Ya's forehead was covered in sweat. With a small whip in her hand, she panted as she told Sister Hong that a perverted guest had appeared on top of the door. She insisted that she should whip him. However, Yayin didn't want to help her, so she asked if she could help her.

The elder sister bit her lips. It seemed like she had never done such a thing before, but she still got up and took the small whip from elder sister Yayin's hands.

The Red Sister went up alone, and the Yayin Sister stayed in the room with me and waited, and soon we heard a man's voice from upstairs, strange, like pain and release.

Yayin sat next to me, complaining about all sorts of perverted guests. Then she looked at me, looked at me, sighed and said, "What a sin!"

About 20 minutes later, the shouting from upstairs finally stopped. When Sister Hong came back, she looked a little exhausted. She threw the small whip onto the brick bed, sweating profusely. She held a roll of money in her hand.

Elder sister Hong tossed the money to Yanyin while she sprawled on the blanket, gasping for air.

Yanyin stared at the money and seemed a little envious, but still pushed the money to the side of her pillow, saying that although she took the job, she didn't do anything and couldn't take the money.

The elder sister lay there unmoving. Although elder sister Yayin pushed the money to the side of her pillow, her eyes still couldn't help but stare at the roll of money.

The Red Sister said to Yayin with her eyes closed: Aren't you waiting for your son to study with money? It should be the living expenses for the next few days, right?

Yayin said in embarrassment that elder sister Hong had helped her quite a bit.

The Red Sister rolled over, her back to us, and told Yayin to take it away before she went back on her word.

After a brief moment of hesitation, Yayin still stretched out her hand towards the roll of money, stuffed it into her underwear and walked out with her head lowered.

This matter made me feel that Sister Hong was a good person, so I unconsciously felt closer and more respectful towards her.

The next morning, I got up and changed into my dirty clothes. Just as I pushed open the door, I saw the four guards walking in with an eighteen or nineteen year old sister.

The elder sister had a foreign accent and two large braids. She looked very pretty. When she walked in and looked at the environment, she asked the troop behind her, didn't they say to recruit waiters? What are you doing here?

The squad looked at his sister and smiled darkly, saying that this was service work.
