Chapter 209: Chapter 161: Whether Silu Wants to Study Abroad or Travel the World, I’ll Support Her
Jiang Ming shook his head. "I’m afraid Xiaofei is in there. What if she recognizes me?"
"How about this: we’ll stay on a WeChat call the whole time. You’ll be able to hear my entire conversation with your girlfriend, and then you’ll know the truth," Lu Fan explained.
Jiang Ming was confused. "Then how are you going to see Xiaofei?"
"I’ll just ask for her by name to give me a massage," Lu Fan answered.
Hearing this, Jiang Ming felt that something was off.
But he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
After all, there were no other good options besides this one.
After thinking it over, Jiang Ming finally agreed. "Alright, I’ll leave it to you."
Lu Fan glanced at Chen He, then gestured for them to head upstairs.
Chen He snickered and asked, "Boss, can I get two girls today? I want one for my feet and one for my shoulders."
"Then you’ll have to ask Boss Jiang if he’s willing to pay for that," Lu Fan said with a laugh.
Jiang Ming stammered, "F-fine... okay."
Lu Fan glanced at him one last time before getting into the elevator.
When the elevator doors opened.
Two attendants in white shirts walked up to them. "Welcome to Yu Cheng Foot Bath City. How may I help you gentlemen?"
Lu Fan looked at them calmly and asked, "What’s your most expensive package?"
Upon hearing this, the attendants’ eyes lit up. One of them immediately beamed and said, "We have an ultimate VIP package that includes a foot bath, back massage, essential oil treatment, and a steam session. The whole package is only 1,888."
"Alright." Lu Fan walked to the front desk, pulled out a card, and said, "Go ahead and put a hundred thousand on this. But I have one condition: I want to see every girl in this entire establishment. I’m very picky, and I only want a massage from a girl who catches my eye."
Just then, the manager of the foot bath city rushed to the front desk and said with an eager smile, "Hello, sir! I’m the manager here. My surname is Gao. And you are, sir...?"
"Lu."
"Mr. Lu, not a problem. Let me load the hundred thousand for you. This will make you a lifetime VIP member, and you’ll receive a 12% discount on all services."
"Manager Gao, is it? Did you hear my condition clearly?" Lu Fan replied calmly.
Manager Gao nodded hastily. "Not a problem at all. I’ll have every girl in the establishment brought before you shortly."
"Good. But if I find that a single girl was held back, I’ll be asking for a full refund," Lu Fan said, his tone a mix of politeness and warning.
"Of course, of course. Not a problem, Mr. Lu. Let me arrange a private suite for you first." Manager Gao didn’t dare to slight him. He could tell at a glance that Lu Fan was a man of wealth and bearing.
At that moment, Chen He chimed in, "Oh, right. Can I get something to drink? I’m a bit thirsty."
"What would you like? Champagne, perhaps?" Manager Gao asked, testing the waters.
Sure enough, a different price point meant a different class of refreshments.
Lu Fan, however, just said, "A glass of warm water is fine for me."
"Right away!" Manager Gao smiled and nodded, then immediately turned to the two attendants. "Quick, quick! Get Mr. Lu a glass of warm water."
Lu Fan was then shown to a private suite.
And waited.
While he waited, he placed a WeChat call to Jiang Ming.
Downstairs, Jiang Ming was waiting anxiously.
Standing there, something had just dawned on him.
Technically speaking, Lu Fan was his former brother-in-law.
And even if they were "former," his sister still hadn’t forgiven the man.
But he could still be called brother-in-law.
’But now, this brother-in-law is about to request a massage from my girlfriend.’ Jiang Ming suddenly felt like he was being cuckolded.
And yet, he was the one who had asked Lu Fan for help.
For a moment, Jiang Ming was filled with a frustration he couldn’t voice.
As Lu Fan leaned back in the massage chair, a line of the foot bath city’s girls filed neatly in front of him.
"Next batch."
After a quick glance, Lu Fan didn’t see the person he was looking for. He waved a dismissive hand, signaling for them to leave.
Seeing Lu Fan’s unflappable demeanor, Manager Gao thought to himself, ’This guy must be a regular at places like this.’
He immediately arranged for the next batch to include the girls with the best figures and prettiest faces in the entire establishment and led them into the suite.
Ma Xiaofei was among them.
The masseuses smiled at Lu Fan and greeted him, "Welcome, sir."
"Introduce yourselves, one by one." Lu Fan had already spotted Ma Xiaofei, but he remained perfectly composed as he spoke.
"I’m number 032, Yating."
"I’m number 011, Su Lin."
"I’m number 096, Ma Li."
"I’m number 069, Xiaofei."
The moment Ma Xiaofei finished, Lu Fan raised a hand, looked at her, and said, "Her."
