Put it on my account
==================
At the entrance of KTV.
Kirimi stared at the door in a daze. The previous neon sign was replaced with a full metal bronze three-dimensional carved lettering. The entire building had been renovated and was very different from what she remembered.
Suddenly, a bright headlight flashed through the night. A mint green Volkswagen Beetle quietly stopped beside her, the window rolled down, and Jiang He poked her head out. "Mi Wu, what are you staring at?"
Before she could answer, Jiang He had already parked the car and walked quickly to her side: "Come on, let's go in now."
Wu Jian frowned slightly and turned to Jiang He, his voice a little tense: "Jiang Jiang, is Fu Li really in there?"
"It should be right. My brother came here to meet a friend last week and saw Fu Li pouring drinks in a private room. But he only remembered to mention it to me today, saying that he saw my college classmate." Jiang He took her arm and raised his chin towards the gorgeous revolving door. "Let's go in and take a look, and we'll find out. I heard that after the renovation, this place is now the most high-end place in Qingting."
Wu Jianwei calmed down and said, "Well, let's go."
As they stepped into the hall, a metal copper wire screen caught their eyes. Before they could take a closer look, a man in a dark suit with a manager's nameplate on his chest came forward to greet them.
"Good evening, ladies." He bowed slightly, his smile as perfect as if it had been measured with a ruler. "Do you have an appointment?"
"No, we're here to look for someone." Wu Jianwei took a deep breath, "Could you please help us find Fu Li?"
"Sorry, we can't disclose the privacy of our guests." The manager's smile froze on his face, and he already wanted to ask them to leave.
"He's not a guest, he's your employee." Wu Jianwei found Fu Li's photo and showed it to the manager.
"Employee?" The manager frowned, swiping his fingers quickly on the tablet, then raised his eyes, "We don't have this employee here either. I'm sorry, but I have other guests to attend to. If you don't have anything else to do, just..."
The manager had already gestured for them to leave.
Jiang He leaned close to her ear and said, "Maybe Fu Li has only been here for a few days, and the manager doesn't know her at all. Besides, I guess Fu Li didn't use her real name. How about we get a private room first? Then we can look for her slowly."
Kirimi nodded slightly and turned to the manager: "Then open a small room for us."
"Excuse me, do you have a membership?" The manager, noticing they weren't regulars, said sternly, "We have a membership system and only accept guests with memberships."
"Hey, you have quite a lot of rules?" Jiang He couldn't help but glare at him.
The manager looked like a dummy in a shop window, with a fake smile on his face: "Please understand, we are also trying to ensure the guest experience."
"Are we lowering the standard of your customers?" Wu Jianwei glared at the manager, but she didn't want to go in with a smug look on her face. She immediately pulled Jiang He aside to discuss, "Jiang Jiang, if Fu Li is here, she'll have to get off work eventually. Should we wait for her somewhere else?"
"Let me think about it." Jiang He hesitated for a few seconds. "I can ask my brother to ask his friends to book a private room for us, but my brother is such a tough guy that he'll wear out his lips if I ask him to do even the smallest thing. It's like I owe him a huge favor."
Just as they were looking at each other, wondering what to do next, a surprised male voice rang out in the hall.
"Jiang He? Why are you here?"
They turned around at the same time, and Jiang He looked at him in surprise: "Mr. Wu?"
Wu Ze's eyes swept over them, and his surprise turned into joy: "Jianwei, you are here too, are you here to sing?"
Kirimi smiled slightly unnaturally: "Yes."
At this moment, the manager who was waiting nearby immediately came forward tactfully and said, "Mr. Wu, your friend has arrived. Are these two ladies also your friends? They just wanted to book a small private room."
Wu Ze smiled and waved his hand: "What's the point of opening a small package? If we meet, of course we can play together."
"No, really, that's not necessary." They declined quickly.
"Don't be so formal with me. We're all family. The two of you are so boring. It's more lively when there are more people." Wu Ze thought they were just being polite and without saying anything, he asked the manager to lead the way. Then he turned to them and said, "Give me a favor. I know this place well."
Seeing this, Jiang He leaned close to Wu Jianwei's ear and said, "Mi Wu, how about we go together? This will save us the cost of a private room and it will also be easier to find someone."
Wu Jianwei hesitated for a moment and nodded gently: "Okay..."
When they were almost in the private room, Wu Ze suddenly turned around curiously: "Jianwei, does Yanxiu know that you're here to play?"
"What's it to him?" Wu Jianwei's expression turned cold. "Does he care?"
"Hey, you two are still so competitive..." Wu Ze stopped talking with a smile. The manager pushed open the door to the private room, and Wu Ze stepped aside to let them in.
As soon as I stepped into the private room, the noisy singing stopped abruptly.
Five well-dressed men sat on the sofa, all looking at them with inquiring smiles on their faces: "Wu Ze, who are these two?"
Wu Ze deliberately kept the conversation a secret and politely guided them to sit on the other side of the sofa. He then took off his coat, leaned towards the center of the sofa, raised his hand and introduced Wu Jianwei, "This is Yan Xiu's wife."
“…” Kirimi closed his eyes slightly and frowned instantly.
Jiang He couldn't hold back his laughter and squeezed her palm in the dark: "Forget it, for the sake of finding Fu Li, just bear with it."
Wu Jianwei: "Hmm..."
The men immediately started to make a noise: "Is this true? Meng Yanxiu is actually married?"
"I'm the emcee, how could I be fake?" Wu Ze pointed at Jiang He again, "This is Jianwei's good friend, and also my company's HR."
After saying that, he picked up a glass of wine and said, "Come, Jianwei, let me toast you. I didn't even have time to wish you all the best on your wedding day, and you were so busy that you disappeared."
"Thank you." Kirimi forced a smile, raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Wu Ze was shocked for a moment: "Jianwei, you are so straightforward, and you can drink a lot!"
All of a sudden, Wu Ze's friends raised their glasses and gathered around, "Mrs. Meng, let's toast to you too. Happy wedding! Yan Xiu is so low-key. We didn't even know he was married. How shameful."
"...Just call me by my name. Hello, my name is Wu Jianwei." She sighed helplessly and greeted them politely. When she was about to drink, Wu Ze stepped aside to block her.
"Hey, don't force my wife to drink while Yan Xiu is away." Wu Ze raised his hand to hold down the wine glasses. "Just drink this one. Just be casual."
"Yes, yes, that's what we meant. We'll do it. You can just drink the drink as a token of your appreciation." Those friends were also respectable people. They raised their glasses and drank them all in one gulp, then returned to their seats and continued singing.
Wu Ze handed over the microphone again: "What do you want to sing? Let them help you choose."
"I'm tone-deaf. You guys just have fun and don't worry about me." Wu Jianwei looked out the door absent-mindedly. Through the small piece of glass on the door of the private room, he occasionally saw figures passing by outside, but he never saw Fu Li.
Wu Ze didn't force it anymore and handed the microphone to Jiang He: "What about you? Come on, sing a song?"
Jiang He immediately took it over and patted Wu Jianwei on the shoulder: "Of course I want to sing." After that, he stood up and went to order songs. Wu Ze also continued to drink and chat with his friends.
After two or three songs, the waiter pushed the door open and brought the fruit plate and meals they ordered.
Wu Jianwei carefully examined the faces of each waiter. Wu Ze noticed her gaze and came over with a smile and asked, "It must be boring to sit like this. Do you want to find some fun for you?"
"What's fun?" She raised her head. Jiang He, who had just finished singing, came over with blinking eyes and leaned on her shoulder to listen.
Wu Ze smiled meaningfully, called the manager, and whispered a few words to him. The manager understood and soon led six or seven outstanding male bartenders into the private room and stood in a neat row.
"Jianwei, you choose." Wu Ze raised his chin at her.
"Pornographic services?" Wu Jianwei looked at Wu Ze in confusion, not noticing that the microphone in Jiang He's hand was right under her ear. When she spoke, everyone in the private room could hear it clearly.
The next second, Wu Ze and his friends burst into laughter, unable to stop. The manager, on the other hand, was so frightened his face turned pale and he quickly waved his hands, "No! No!"
Wu Ze waved his hand, signaling the manager to leave first, and then slowly explained to her, "They're just there to chat with you and provide emotional value. If you like someone, I'll order their drinks. You don't have to drink, just let them drink. As for the rest, this is a serious place. If you want to order, I'll have to order it for you from outside. Besides, I dare not do that. I'm afraid your husband will kill me."
"Oh, then there's no point in chatting." Wu Jianwei was about to refuse, but then he looked at Jiang Jiang again. They instantly thought of the same thing. Isn't this a good opportunity to find out some information?
Then, she changed the subject: "Well... Actually, this is good. I am a little bored alone."
"Haha, that's right." Wu Ze casually arranged two wine stewards, one sitting on Wu Jianwei's left and the other on her right, while he went back to drinking. In order to prevent Wu Ze and the others from noticing Wu Jianwei asking about Fu Li, Jiang He also sat in Wu Ze's area and organized them to play games.
On the other side, the two wine stewards behaved politely and tried to have a heart-to-heart talk with Kirimi. Before she could finish a sentence, she took out her phone and a photo lit up on the screen: "Have you seen this person?"
They were stunned for a moment, one shook his head and said he didn't know her, while the other looked at her carefully for a moment and said: "We have a lot of turnover here, but this girl seems a little familiar."
"Really?" A glimmer of hope finally appeared in her eyes, and she continued to ask for details.
The man took out his phone and said, "I can ask other people for you. Is there anything you want to talk to her about?"
Wu Jianwei thought for a moment: "Well... I am her friend, and I came here specially to see her, but don't let anyone tell her yet."
"Is that so? You want to give her a surprise? I understand. Don't worry, I'll ask first."
Seeing that things were finally starting to look promising, Wu Jianwei relaxed and started drinking.
As the clock passed midnight, everyone became more and more excited. Jiang He sang with great enthusiasm and mingled with Wu Ze's friends. The atmosphere in the private room was extremely harmonious.
Wu Ze glanced back and saw Wu Jianwei and the two winemakers chatting happily. He hadn't expected these three people to chat for so long. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong, but since it was his idea, he couldn't interfere.
He thought for a while and suddenly suggested, "Everyone, it's getting late. Let's stop here today. Jianwei, Jiang He, I'll send a driver to take you there."
Wu Jianwei had just found out that Fu Li was working the early shift this week, so he would be able to meet her in a few hours. How could he be willing to leave now? He immediately said, "Wu Ze, I'm planning to play all night, why don't you leave first?"
"That's right." Wu Ze's friends were in high spirits when they were suddenly stopped. They all felt disappointed and echoed, "Wu Ze, you usually have to perform three shows in one night. Why are you in such a hurry today? There's no one waiting for you at home."
Wu Ze: "...Hey, you really are."
"Mr. Wu, I won't leave either. I can go to work tomorrow without any problems." Jiang He was already drunk. He raised the microphone and said loudly in Wu Ze's ear, "You are weak. You should go back and rest."
"Pfft, haha..." Everyone was amused by Jiang He.
Wu Ze's face was gloomy, and he slammed the table: "Okay, no one is allowed to leave tonight, we will play all night, I want to see if you can outlast me!"
After that, everyone went back to playing their own games. Only Wu Ze was still frowning. He hesitated for a long time, and suddenly a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes. He took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Meng Yanxiu.
Wu Ze: "I am tired of practicing Buddhism, so I come to Huanyue to drink."
In the quiet villa, Meng Yanxiu just came out of the bathroom, his nightgown was loose, and biscuits were running around at his feet. He picked up the biscuits with one hand, and saw the phone on the bed light up out of the corner of his eye. He glanced at it and replied decisively.
Meng Yanxiu: "Not coming."
Wu Ze had anticipated this and quietly tilted his phone to the right, snapping a quick photo. In the photo, Kiri Mimi sat lazily in the middle, with two male bartenders leaning in to chat, both smiling.
Wu sent the photo and added: "Your wife is here, are you really not coming?"
On the other end of the phone, Meng Yanxiu swiped his fingertips to enlarge the photo. Seeing Wu Jianwei's gentle expression as she chatted and laughed with two strange men, he couldn't help but sneer: "You really went to eat with a lot of men."
Not long after, Wu Ze's phone screen lit up with a reply.
Meng Yanxiu: "She likes handsome guys, order a few more for her and put it on my account."
Wu Ze stared at the screen of his mobile phone, unable to believe his eyes. Meng Yanxiu did not get furious on the spot.
Wu Ze clearly remembered that one time he, Meng Yanxiu and Wu Jianwei went to a restaurant for dinner. A man at the next table looked at Wu Jianwei a few more times, so Meng Yanxiu stood up and walked over, asking the man with a cold face, "Have you seen enough?"
But what happened today? Wu Ze shook his head and chuckled, whispering, "These two really are playing their own games now?"
But this is also good, Wu Ze thought, since Meng Yanxiu didn't care, he had nothing to worry about, so he simply plucked up the courage and continued drinking.
However, just half an hour later, the heavy door of the private room was suddenly pushed open.
Meng Yanxiu stood at the door of the private room wearing a neatly tailored black windbreaker. His face was stern and a layer of coldness enveloped his whole body.
