After sending the three girls to the academy, Harveys returned to the office.
She ordered a large batch of various clothes and accessories from nearby clothing branches, which filled the entire first floor, dazzling the eyes.
Susan stared blankly, momentarily doubting if her wallet was enough for this commission.
Fortunately, Harveys said that to support her righteous cause, she did not intend to charge her, and if Susan liked anything, Harveys would even give her a few more.
Susan looked at the flimsy clothes and shook her head, saying she only needed to fulfill this fishing mission.
She probably wouldn't dare to wear them at home normally.
Of course, Harveys not charging did not mean Li Andy wouldn't.
At least the venue usage fee should be charged, right?
Li Andy sat leisurely to the side, sipping tea and reading the newspaper, seeing a completely differently dressed Susan every time he looked up.
Harveys was like playing a dress-up game, tirelessly changing Susan, who was dizzy.
Sometimes a cold and glamorous lady, sometimes a gilded noblewoman, sometimes an innocent female student, sometimes a salon poetess...
Finally, before Susan's brain overloaded, Harveys, for the success rate of the mission, reluctantly gave up the most suitable outfit and chose a gaudy set that fit the scene.
At this point, Susan, who had rolled in the dust of the world and carried a sense of disheveled weariness, stood awkwardly in front of Li Andy.
“Andy, do you feel like something is missing?” Harveys sat beside Li Andy, propping her chin.
Li Andy thought for a moment and replied truthfully:
“Her eyes… she doesn’t look like she wants to solicit me, she looks like she wants to interrogate me.”
“Exactly!”
Harveys slapped her thigh and said to Susan,
“Miss Susan, try to… smile? Give a wink?”
Susan was stunned, then forced a smile that could scare children.
Li Andy and Harveys gasped, both leaning back simultaneously.
“Andy, do you think the culprit will fall for it?” Harveys couldn't help but ask.
“No, it would scare a drunk person sober,” Li Andy said with certainty.
Susan's mouth twitched, and she gritted her teeth and slammed the table:
“Then train me! I’ll pay extra!”
Li Andy and Harveys exchanged glances, filled with respect.
...
Black Alley, Boating Tavern.
“Drink!”
“My dears, drink your fill!”
“Tonight, I’m treating!”
Lisa, wearing a large red robe with a fox-tail collar, stood in the center of the tavern's talent stage, showing off her long legs and raising her glass with a flourish!
“Oh!!”
Bursts of hormone-fueled shouts rose from below the stage, making the damp, cold air's temperature soar.
“Hahaha!”
Lisa was half-tipsy, her smile unrestrained and wild, her graceful figure swaying, making the males below the stage gulp.
“Let’s revel for this lucky night!!”
“Oh oh oh!!”
The entire tavern's atmosphere ignited completely, and everyone's souls floated freely as their emotions were released.
Lisa narrowed her drunken eyes, incredibly happy; her heart had never been so fulfilled since childhood.
Heh heh~
Perhaps, the Goddess of Fortune really has taken a liking to me~
However, even the most boisterous bonfire will eventually burn out.
Even a drunkard with iron kidneys cannot withstand a thousand cups.
Night approached, and people dispersed.
Lisa, still in the happy afterglow, staggered back to the backstage.
A man in heavy makeup, with a satisfied smile, swayed his hips as he walked towards her.
“Oh, little Lisa, your method of enlivening the atmosphere is very good, but you can’t misuse it in the future, okay? I won’t deduct this time’s drink money from your commission. Next month, you must also work hard~”
The raspy, duck-like voice instantly sobered Lisa by half.
She frowned and threw the wine bottle in her hand.
“You, you… you!”
“What ‘you’! You unmanly, unwomanly thing!”
Lisa smoothed her side hair, leaned against the wall, and laughed contemptuously,
“I’m telling you! I’m quitting!”
“I’ve latched onto the Goddess of Fortune’s long leg and am going to be a noblewoman in the castle!”
The man in heavy makeup rubbed his fingers, frowning deeply, his voice also becoming low: “Lisa, you’re drunk. Tonight, I’ll temporarily forgive your offense and won’t argue with you. But the drink money will all be deducted from your commission!”
Lisa scoffed:
“Get lost! Don’t block my way!”
The man in heavy makeup’s eyes instantly turned gloomy, staring intently at Lisa.
Lisa’s eyes were hazy with drink, yet defiant.
Finally, the man snorted coldly and turned to leave.
He didn’t care, nor did he believe Lisa’s words were true.
In Black Alley, none of the canaries controlled by the moles could fly out of their cages.
If there were, it would surely be because the bird’s feathers had all fallen out.
Given that she boosted sales tonight, he would temporarily not punish her; once she calmed down, she would naturally start to fear.
Lisa watched the man’s receding back and laughed foolishly, a few tears still in the corners of her eyes.
How many people from the bottom could curse their black-hearted boss to their face!
Was it the relief of pent-up frustration?
Or the joy of breaking free from a cage?
She didn’t know, but she was very happy.
Hahaha… Tonight was so much fun!
Lisa leaned against the wall, swaying, and left the tavern through the back door.
It seemed to have just rained outside; the cold air sobered her by four-tenths.
She walked for a while, then suddenly felt tired, so she leaned against the wall, smiling, savoring the madness of the night.
At this moment, she suddenly noticed a man in a raincoat appearing at the alley entrance.
Lisa frowned and cursed, exhaling alcohol fumes:
“Get lost! From tonight onwards, I’m not taking customers!”
“Ding—!”
The sound of a coin bouncing echoed.
Lisa's pupils shrank sharply.
The man in the raincoat, while tossing a coin, slowly approached her.
Heads… heads… still heads!
That was the Lucky Coin!!
The corner of the man’s mouth under his hood gradually curved upwards, and the gentle voice from his mouth, the words he spoke, were as cold as the rain:
“A coin has two sides; as long as it’s always heads, you can always be lucky.”
“But do you know how to maintain eternal heads?”
“Heh heh, you don’t need to answer, I’ll tell you.”
“Luck needs tragedy as a foil.”
“The heads of a coin also need to be cast with pain.”
“We, the lucky ones, ultimately have only one fated person.”
“To meet you here, it seems… I am even luckier.”
Lisa felt all the hairs on her body stand on end, suddenly feeling that some fate of hers was being mercilessly crushed by the other party.
He… wants to kill me!
He can kill me!
Her bright red robe made her face incredibly pale.
