Volume 9 – Chapter 82: Overlapping

In general, Hou Chen Yuhan was more conservative in her thinking, despite the fact that women in the modern era had become independent and self-reliant. They had even begun to promote gender equality.

But, she still felt that what happened at this moment was too avant-garde for her.

The music blasted in this ballroom was like a soul enchantment bell that could disturb people’s thoughts. This place has magic power that makes women degenerate.

But after staying for an instant, Hou Chen Yuhan already felt dizzy and flustered. She was averted to everything in this place; she instinctively took two steps back.

“Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Li, thank you for your kindness.” Hou Chen Yuhan said anxiously, “However, I am afraid I’m not suitable for this kind of place. I will go back first.”

They seemed to anticipate Hou Chen Yuhan would say this. Mrs. Zhang smiled and said at this time, “Ms. Hou Chen, it’s fine! I know what you are thinking because I have the same experience too. At the start, I’m also unwilling, but now…”

She grabbed Hou Chen Yuhan’s arm, but looked at the enthusiasm of the dance hall, fascinated and said, “People, no matter man or woman, also need to have fun some time, right? Why are we women inferior than men? Why do they get to have fun but not us, suffering the fate to stay at home and take care of our child? If a man knows how to appreciate it, it’s fine. If the man doesn’t know how to cherish it and have affairs outside our home, does the woman deserve to be wronged forever?”

“Mrs. Zhang, I understand your kindness…” Hou Chen Yuhan shook her head, “However, I can’t get past my own self. So, shall we stop here for today? I have never been here; I promise that I will never tell it to anyone.”

Hou Chen Yuhan knew that when these rich wives brought her to this kind of place, they expected her to participate rather than being a bystander. Otherwise, they won’t be relieved, even if she made promises.

Mrs. Zhang frowned, but Hou Chen Yuhan took the opportunity to break free of Mrs. Zhang’s hand. She quickly turned and left. But, Mrs. Li behind her said nonchalantly, “Teacher, can you guarantee that your husband is not having an affair behind your back? Sometimes, men can’t control themselves, right?”

Hou Chen Yuhan was startled all of a sudden.

She also got lonely and sad sometimes. For such a long day, she was no different from staying alone. Which woman could bear with it? Unless she was born to be the type of careless woman… Obviously, she was not this type of woman.

Are you confident with your husband?

Mrs. Li’s words pierced Hou Chen Yuhan’s soft spot like a needle. She knew better than anyone. It was not that Zhu Maolin was sexually incompetent. He just didn’t have feelings for her, but his other functions were normal.

In that case, when facing other women, could he still restrain himself?

“How about this?” Mrs. Li stepped forward at this time, grabbed Hou Chen Yuhan’s hand, and said with a pleasant tone, “Teacher, we will not force you. But, at least you should not dampen the mood. You want to leave now? How about this? You won’t be participating, but just watch it by the side… Of course, if you’re interested, we welcome you to join us at any time! Teacher, we bought so many class hours from you. You can’t just give us a cold shoulder like this, right?”

“No drinking… and no need to find a man for me.” Hou Chen Yuhan reluctantly agreed. The pottery art classroom’s income source came majorly from these wealthy wives, “I will just sit and do nothing. Otherwise, I’m sorry… At most, I will refund the tuition fee to you.”

“Fine, as long as you stay, everything will be fine!” Mrs. Li squinted and smiled.

Hou Chen Yuhan said at this time, “Then… I want to go to the bathroom first to calm down… I’m still quite anxious!”

Mrs. Zhang pointed in the direction, “Okay, the bathroom is over there. We are at Table 13. Join us by yourself later. You just need to get used to it. I’m at the same spot at the start. Take it slowly.”

Hou Chen Yuhan lowered her head. She did not dare to look at the men who were performing on the stage, and she hurriedly walked toward the bathroom without a word.

Mrs. Li said with interest at this time, “This Teacher Hou Chen, she is still too innocent. Later, let’s serve her well… Since she is here, it’s no good to not join the fun.”

Mrs. Zhang also chuckled, winking at the third madam and said, “Remember to bring some delicious ‘drinks’ over later, just remember no alcohol.”

“Okay! I’ll do it!” The third madam happily said, “There are still some leftovers from last time, it’s just right that I can use it now!”

While the three madam were discussing the following matters, Hou Chen Yuhan, who walked all the way into the bathroom, took advantage of the dim lights and the crowds in the disco to sneakily walk to the door at the other side. There seemed to be another door here, which seemed to lead somewhere.

Hou Chen Yuhan only wanted to get rid of these wealthy wives, so she pretended to agree… As for whether they want to withdraw from the course in the future, she would just let them be.

Since they weren’t of the same world, why bother to get together.

The door was opened just at this moment. A woman wearing sexy clothing walked in with a displeased face. Hou Chen Yuhan lowered her head, walked directly past her and walked into the door.

There were also two men guarding the door, but they didn’t seem to be surprised for Hou Chen Yuhan to come out. Instead, they smiled and respectfully made an inviting gesture. Hou Chen Yuhan discovered the reason why these two people didn’t stop her at all.

Because behind this door was also a huge room… This was a casino!

The place was brightly lit. Men and women gathered around this place, sitting at different gaming tables and screaming heartily. These two guards probably thought she was bored of the dance stage outside, so she came here to try her luck.

But at least, the casino was better than the disco behind the door… At least, this place was brightly lit which made her feel a lot more comfortable.

“Miss, are you here for the first time?” One of the men in front of the door said politely.

Hou Chen Yuhan nodded slightly.

“The place to exchange the chips is over there.” The man smiled and said, “If you place a bet, the minimum is 10,000, and the upper limit is not capped… Please make yourself at home.”

Not capped…

Hou Chen Yuhan still nodded… I am afraid those who come to have fun in this clubhouse are either rich or they are noble. The rich wives, who are having fun out there, are probably just ordinary people here.

The casino is at least better than the evils outside… Hou Chen Yuhan comforted herself as such, but she had a funny feeling that what happened to her today had indeed completely changed her boring life.

She walked into the crowd, but she saw that the casino also had many different doors. This time she didn’t dare to rush in, for fear that there would be some weird stuff behind these doors.

One of the doors opened at this time, and a pot bellied man took two girls with revealing clothes and walked out. Hou Chen Yuhan probably knew what kind of place was on the other side of the door.

“Again… fucking won again!!”

“What the hell is this luck! This guy is so strange! After betting for so long, I haven’t seen him losing a single bet!”

A burst of excitement suddenly came from the crowd. Hou Chen Yuhan subconsciously looked over at this time, and she saw a lot of men and women before a gaming table.

This should be called Baccarat, right? Hou Chen Yuhan remembered seeing something similar on the Internet before, but she couldn’t tell.

On this gambling table, the croupier wiped the sweat from his forehead vigorously at this moment. He was looking at the gambler sitting directly in front of him like he was facing a formidable enemy.

The man wore a full-length sports suit, and he put on the hood that came with the clothes. This man had a lot of chips stacked in front of him.

At this time, the man directly pushed out all the chips in front of him, then he waited for the croupier to deal.

Everyone seemed to take a deep breath. Hou Chen Yuhan didn’t know how much money each of these chips represented.

But in this place where the minimum is 10,000 and the upper limit is not capped, these chips can even make these rich men have such expression, it seems that the bet that this man in sportswear isn’t the number I can earn even in my lifetime.

She felt that she and this gambler were probably people from two different worlds.

Can he win?

Hou Chen Yuhan subconsciously walked closer curiously, intending to see the result.
