"Mm."
Fang Kangning hugged Zhang Li and sat down. Chen Tao poured him a glass of wine. "How's it going, Young Master Fang? Is the warehouse situation settled?"
"It's settled."
Fang Kangning reached out to take the wine glass, responding. Chen Tao chuckled, "That's good. Tomorrow night at ten, Kunxiong and the others will be at Longwan Pier punctually. We'll go greet them then!"
"No problem."
Fang Kangning nodded, clinking his glass and downing the wine in one go. The two continued their conversation…
At this moment, several sports cars arrived at the villa's main gate. It was Zhang Yongrui leading the way. The guards at the entrance waved, and the sports cars pulled to a stop.
Zhang Yongrui personally got out of his car and whispered a few words to the guards. Wang Mengyao, seated in the car behind him, surveyed the surroundings. Seeing that it was a private villa, she still felt no sense of caution.
After all, in their circle, private villas were often converted into entertainment venues, so Wang Mengyao didn't think much of it. Seeing Zhang Yongrui handle the guards, he waved to signal Wang Mengyao to follow. The sports cars drove into the courtyard and parked.
Wang Mengyao got out of the car and looked around the courtyard. Seeing the fierce-looking subordinates coming and going, she felt a little nervous, sensing that this place was quite different from the private villas she had visited before.
"Brother Zhang, what kind of place is this, and what exactly do we do here?" Wang Mengyao asked curiously.
"You should know Chen Tao, the chairman of Chen Corporation, right? This is his private venue, mainly for ordinary entertainment, specifically for people in our circle." To ease Wang Mengyao's concerns, Zhang Yongrui directly revealed Chen Tao's name.
"I know Mr. Chen. He attended my birthday banquet before."
Wang Mengyao had some impression of Chen Tao. Hearing that it was just a normal entertainment venue, she finally relaxed. She followed Zhang Yongrui and Liang Jun into the villa. In the first-floor hall, she saw a group of men and women gathered together, drinking and playing. The second floor was like a music bar.
Zhang Yongrui took Wang Mengyao upstairs. The booming DJ music and a group of scantily clad women twisting their bodies on the dance floor stirred up the emotions of the young wealthy men in the venue.
One woman in particular was shaking her head incessantly, as if she had taken drugs, which surprised Wang Mengyao. The way she shook her neck and the arc of her movement were truly terrifying.
Zhang Yongrui put his arm around Wang Mengyao's shoulder and patted it, telling her not to be surprised. They found an empty bar counter, ordered some drinks, and then started drinking.
"How is it, this place is not bad, right?"
After a few drinks, Zhang Yongrui's hand naturally rested on her shoulder. Wang Mengyao felt a bit repulsed and removed his hand. This made Zhang Yongrui's eyes darken. Fortunately, the light was dim, so no one could see his grim expression. He sneered inwardly, "You're putting on airs with me, huh? Wait until later, and I'll make you beg for mercy on your knees!"
After a few more drinks, it was just like an ordinary bar, and Wang Mengyao lost interest. "Brother Zhang, there's nothing fun here. Why don't we leave and have a race on the mountain road?"
"What's the hurry? It hasn't even started yet!"
Zhang Yongrui smiled and picked up the wine bottle to pour more wine into Wang Mengyao's glass. "Come on, let's have two more drinks. I'll take you downstairs to play later."
"Downstairs?"
Wang Mengyao was puzzled. Liang Jun chuckled, "It's the basement, the minus-one floor. That's the most fun place in this venue!"
"Oh."
Wang Mengyao shrugged it off and continued drinking with them. However, she didn't notice that some powdery drugs had been discreetly placed at the bottom of her wine glass!
This was what Zhang Yongrui had done when she wasn't paying attention.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Wan Yunting, who was impersonating Tao Xiang, slowly arrived at the villa's outer main gate with Niu Qiuling in a sports car. The guard waved them to stop. Niu Qiuling's little face tensed up. Wan Yunting calmly smiled, "Stay calm, just don't talk."
Niu Qiuling turned her head and looked at Wan Yunting, who looked like Tao Xiang, with a calm and composed demeanor. Her heart settled a little.
"Young Master Tao, why are you here so early tonight?" The guard recognized Tao Xiang in the car; he was a frequent visitor.
Wan Yunting sniffed and put on a nonchalant expression, smiling, "Got the craving, didn't I!"
Niu Qiuling beside him was startled. This guy's imitation of Tao Xiang's voice was too perfect, even the subtle details were consistent. She couldn't see any flaw in him.
This guy is just too good at this!
"Oh, right. I'm bringing a new girl in tonight. Is that okay?" Wan Yunting gestured to Niu Qiuling in the passenger seat.
The guard looked down and carefully observed Niu Qiuling. Seeing her proud, fair chest… his eyes nearly popped out. "Sure, Young Master Tao. This beauty's boobs are really big!"
Big your sister… Niu Qiuling muttered inwardly, but she put on a charming smile and glanced at the guard, making him swallow his saliva. He then smiled at Wan Yunting, "Young Master Tao, you know our rules here. Newcomers need identity checks, but you're an old customer. I'll give you face. After you're done playing later, can you let me have a go too?"
Niu Qiuling watched the guard's lecherous gaze fixed on her and was furious. Yet, she forced herself to maintain a coy smile, as if she were ready to be plucked.
Wan Yunting glanced at Niu Qiuling and found it amusing. He turned back to the guard and smiled, "It's just a woman. I'll let you have her first later!"
These words successfully provoked Niu Qiuling. Her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she glared at Wan Yunting, her teeth almost grinding to dust.
"Alright, then Young Master Tao, you can go in."
The guard was excited. He truly was a second-generation rich kid, able to pick up any woman.
Clearly, he had benefited from this kind of deal many times before.
Wan Yunting slowly drove the car into the courtyard and stopped in an empty parking spot under the guard's direction. Niu Qiuling in the passenger seat glared at Wan Yunting with wide eyes. He smiled, "Officer Niu, don't forget the purpose of our visit. Cooperate well!"
Niu Qiuling was so angry that her proud chest trembled, drawing even more attention. She gritted her teeth and said in a low, fierce voice, "I'll settle this with you later."
Wan Yunting shrugged indifferently, got out of the car, and immediately put his arm around Niu Qiuling's slender, firm waist. Her body trembled, and she turned her head to glare fiercely at this scoundrel. However, she remained rational, knowing that tonight's mission was very important.
Wan Yunting, disguised as Tao Xiang, put on the arrogant and overbearing demeanor of a rich second-generation heir, occasionally sniffing. This was a common action for addicts. His portrayal was so vivid and lifelike that it was impossible to tell the difference.
After all, having spent so long in prison, he had encountered countless addicts and had perfectly mastered the state of someone experiencing drug withdrawal.
"Young Master Tao, you're here!"
Suddenly, Chen Tao, standing on the rooftop of the villa, saw Tao Xiang below and greeted him with a smile.
"It's Chen Tao…"
Niu Qiuling's expression tightened. She also looked up at Chen Tao on the villa. Wan Yunting tightened his grip on Niu Qiuling's waist and whispered, "Don't be nervous, relax…"
"Mr. Chen, you're here too."
Wan Yunting then raised his hand and waved with a smile to Chen Tao upstairs.
Chen Tao had no idea that the Tao Xiang in front of him was impersonated by Wan Yunting. "Young Master Tao, the new batch will be here tomorrow night!"
"That's great! What new batch?" Wan Yunting asked.
"A new type of batch. Come and try it then, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied!" Chen Tao said with a smile.
"Got it. I'll definitely come and try it tomorrow night." Tao Xiang waved and smiled.
Chen Tao nodded. "Then, Young Master Tao, you go ahead and have fun. The girl by your side is quite nice!"
Being singled out, Niu Qiuling's heart tightened. Wan Yunting held her waist with his right hand and lifted her chin with his left, laughing at Chen Tao. "You mean her? This is a girl I picked up in Jiang City. What do you think, she's big, isn't she."
"Haha, only Young Master Tao knows how to have fun."
Chen Tao laughed. Ma Xin, Fang Kangning, and Zhang Li also came out.
Heh, they're all here… Wan Yunting looked at them on the rooftop and sneered inwardly.
"Young Master Tao, go ahead and have fun. We'll chat later." Chen Tao waved, no longer speaking much to Tao Xiang.
Wan Yunting responded and then, with Niu Qiuling's body stiffening beside him, walked towards the villa. He whispered, "Miss, you're too nervous. Relax, cooperate with me properly, or the mission will fail, and don't blame me."
"Hmph."
Niu Qiuling responded with a哼. If it weren't for the mission, she would have already thrown him to the ground.
