Chapter 393 A Mysterious Club
"Xiao, tell me, are you the only one who is so cute or are all Chinese people so cute?" In the hotel taxi, Elizabeth leaned on Xiao Peng's shoulder and said.
Xiao Peng is not drunk yet and remains rational - there are some things that you really can't do!
Looking at Elizabeth leaning on his shoulder, he realized she was so well-maintained that he couldn't tell her actual age. Those people in the film and television industry really knew how to maintain their appearance... Ugh! What was he thinking? This was Marlene and Felix's mother!
Xiao Peng quickly said, "Chinese people are so cute."
Elizabeth smiled and said, "It seems I have to pay more attention to Chinese men in the future."
Xiao Peng blinked, not knowing how to respond. He simply changed the subject and asked, "Where are we going to drink?"
Elizabeth leaned on Xiao Peng's shoulder and half-closed her eyes and said, "It's a 'liberal club' now."
Xiao Peng didn't know what the "Liberal Club" was, but he noticed that as soon as Elizabeth finished speaking, the taxi driver glanced at her in the rearview mirror.
This doesn't seem like a good place!
"Hey, Elizabeth, you're not going to take me to some illegal place, are you?" Xiao Peng said.
Well... Actually, Xiao Peng would dare to go somewhere illegal, but it depends on who is around him: going with Malin's mother is a bit weird.
Elizabeth said, "Of course it's a legal and formal entertainment venue. Even if I'm out of fashion now, I'm still in the entertainment industry. How could I go to an illegal place and ruin myself? The key is that I'm also afraid of ruining Felix, right?"
Xiao Peng thought about it and it made sense, so he didn't say anything.
The taxi took them to Marne-la-Coquet, southwest of Paris. This is one of the wealthiest towns in France, with residents paying taxes more than five times the average French income. This shows just how wealthy this place is!
The place they arrived at was an independent two-story historical building, standing alone in the forest.
"Elizabeth, are you sure this is a club? Why does it look like a monastery? Are you sure there is someone here?" Xiao Peng got out of the taxi and looked at the building in front of him. There were no lights or music. What kind of place was this?
He took money out of his wallet and handed it to the taxi driver before helping Elizabeth out of the taxi. Was he really that drunk or was he just pretending?
After Elizabeth got out of the car, she directly put her arm around Xiao Peng's arm. Xiao Peng looked at her high heels and her drunken appearance and did not refuse. After all, they had been leaning on each other in the car for so long that he was used to it.
"You're right. Over a hundred years ago, this place really was a monastery," Elizabeth said. "But now it's the best club in Paris."
After she finished speaking, she pressed a button on the doorpost. Soon, the monitor on the doorpost scanned the two people and the door opened.
"Look, there are people here!" Elizabeth said, "Let's go!"
When the two reached the building's entrance, the door automatically opened, leaving the interior still pitch black. Xiao Peng's eyesight had gotten used to the place, though. He looked around and saw it was just an ordinary building, nothing like a club. Elizabeth, however, pressed a button nearby with familiarity, and a lighted door opened. Xiao Peng then realized it was an elevator.
The two entered the elevator, and when the elevator door opened again, they finally saw the lights and heard the music.
The music here is more lyrical, and the surrounding environment is more like a cellar, with dim lights and rock walls. There are several Renaissance-style oil paintings hanging on the walls. There are many men and women sitting on the sofas and chatting.
Many people here know Elizabeth, and many of them greet her when they see her.
Elizabeth went to the bar, ordered a bottle of wine, and sat on the sofa. She patted Xiao Peng and said, "Xiao, come and sit here. Why are you like this? Are you stupid?"
Xiao Peng sat next to her but did not deny Elizabeth's words: "I am indeed stupid."
He answered this because on the other side, several women were enjoying a spa treatment, oblivious to the surroundings. They were lying there naked, getting massages. There were also naked men and women sitting in the bathtub, drinking and chatting.
Xiao Peng coughed twice: "Are we in a J hospital? Didn't you say we should go to a legal place? This is not legal..."
Prostitution is legal in almost all European countries, though some regulations vary. For example, in Germany, it's legal for both individuals and businesses to sell sex. Switzerland also offers preferential treatment to sex workers from other EU countries. Within the first three months of their arrival, they can sell sex without a work permit.
In France, 1v1 sales are legal, but here 'selling' is legal but 'buying' is illegal.
But no matter what, opening a brothel in France is absolutely illegal, so Xiao Peng made this statement.
Elizabeth shook her head and pointed above the bar: "Look for yourself!"
Xiao Peng almost laughed when he saw it. Well, this is really legal.
There are two business licenses hanging above the bar. One is a Class N business premises license that allows the opening of bars and dance halls; the other is an indoor sports venue license, which is a Class X business premises license. In France, saunas, like swimming pools and gyms, must have such a Class X license.
When Xiao Peng saw the license, he didn't know what to say.
This is legal in theory, but these women just sit naked in front of everyone and take a bath in the spa without caring about what others think?
"Elizabeth, you're here!" A woman approached, holding a wine glass. "Hey? Why don't you introduce this handsome Oriental man next to you? You know how much I love the mysterious Oriental culture, including Oriental men."
"Rogge, forget about hitting on Xiao." Elizabeth said, "Xiao, let me introduce you to Roger Miller, the actor who plays Freya in the hit TV series 'Don't Go, Darling!' Roger, this is Xiao."
What hit drama? What Freya? He hadn't even seen it, had he? Xiao Peng still stood up and hugged Rogge. But Rogge took the opportunity to touch his waist while they were hugging: "Wow, you have some nice muscles."
Xiao Peng's face was filled with black lines. Is this female gangster an actress from some hit TV series?
Seeing Xiao Peng's expression, Rogge laughed: "Don't be so nervous, okay? You can touch it back." She said while puffing out her chest.
Xiao Peng was now even more embarrassed.
Roger laughed and said, "Elizabeth, it seems your friend has never been here. Let's go, there's a wonderful show over at the 'Petting Corner'. Taylor and Johnny are here."
"Xiao, let's go, I'll take you to see something good!"
