Dancing Queen
"It's you!" Ouyang Feng's face turned iron-gray.
His ferocious tone and expression frightened Pei, who trembled with fear, standing still on the spot, unable to move.
She knew him, he was the behind-the-scenes boss of C City's top entertainment club "Insomnia", and reportedly also the president of the C City Chamber of Commerce.
"The City That Never Sleeps" is also known as "The City of No Night", which includes dance halls, song houses, bars, fitness centers... but the most profitable one is the casino.
Pei's father used to be a gambler. He was originally an ordinary company employee, but later started his own business to support his family, and after several years, he became an agent for clothing brands and opened several stores, with annual income of several million.
After he had money, he developed a bad habit. Unlike others' infidelity, he just loved to gamble with small amounts of money. Pei's mother thought it was harmless, all her thoughts were focused on educating her daughter, she really didn't have time to control him. It was just losing some money, considered as getting rid of the disaster.
As a result, when the "city that never sleeps" was first established, he went there and squandered his money like dirt. In three days, he lost all his family property. All the shops were sold out, the deposits were spent, he became despondent, didn't go to work, quarreled with his wife every day, and even wanted his wife to take out her private savings to help him turn over a new leaf.
Until two years ago, Pei's sister had a major car accident, he woke up. To save the seriously injured Ni Tianran, Ni Mu Chen Yuan took out private money, and Ni Wancheng went to work honestly.
At that time, Chen Yuan had already lost hope in him. It wasn't until a month later, when he handed over his salary, that everyone believed he had truly turned over a new leaf and the family finally had a long-lost warmth.
I thought the bad luck would end, as long as Huanran got better, as long as Ni Wancheng worked diligently... Who would have thought that at the end of last year, Huanran was hospitalized again!
They need money, their family needs money, in order for Fei Yan to continue living!
During the winter vacation, Pei Yi found a job as a tutor. She had already told her parents about it, but the student's family suddenly went abroad for tourism and cancelled the tutoring. Pei Yi didn't know how to explain this to her family, she didn't dare tell Chen Yuan, so she told Nian Wan Cheng.
Ni Wancheng was stunned for half a day and asked tentatively, "Or, you go to my workplace? There should be suitable work for you there, the salary... isn't bad."
Then she found out that Ni Wancheng had been working in the city that never sleeps after his "prodigal son returns"!
Pei Yi thought he was going to gamble again and wanted to tell Chen Yuan. He explained for a long time, saying that he was working as a parking attendant there. Because the guests there are either rich or noble, sometimes they will have a considerable tip, otherwise he won't be able to make so much money in a month.
"What can I do?" Pei asked.
"Dealer." Ni Wancheng said firmly, "It's the card dealer in a casino."
The job of a casino dealer requires training and involves shift work as casinos operate 24 hours a day.
Ni Wancheng let her do this, also because of the tips. When customers win money, they will give generous tips. He pitied Pei Yi and didn't want Pei Yi to work late nights, so he found the casino manager and asked him to let Pei Yi only work the morning and afternoon shifts. Although the afternoon shift had to go until 2 am, it was much better than working the night shift until 10 am.
The manager agreed.
But Pei had only undergone two days of training and her movements were not yet proficient. The manager thought she was pretty and suggested that she dance instead. When she came in, she filled out a form stating that she was a student at the Dance Academy, and the manager had this intention from the start.
"Dancing?" Pei Yi was startled and shook her head. As soon as she entered the casino, she saw the woman dancing on stage, with fiery red lips, revealing clothes, and a seductive dance... At first glance, it didn't seem decent. Moreover, after getting off the stage, customers would even touch them inappropriately, and some would even take them away from the casino.
