Chapter 52

Ashes.
'Helen, we shouldn't be here,' Zhen Zhen said.
Zhen Zhen looked at the topless men and women in bikini tops dancing on dance floor, and she was worried Yue Gu Zai would be upset with her if he found out she went to a nightclub with Helen.
'Big sister Zhen Zhen, relax,' Helen said. She smiled at a bouncer. 'Take us to the VIP room.'
'Do you want me to call An Mei for you?' the bouncer asked.
'Yes,' Helen said.
The bouncer took Helen and Zhen Zhen to a VIP room in the nightclub.
'Helen, why did you take me here?' Zhen Zhen asked.
'Because it looks like it's big sister Zhen Zhen's first time coming to a nightclub and I want you to meet my friend,' Helen said.
'An Mei?' Zhen Zhen asked.
'Yes,' Helen said.
Helen and Zhen Zhen waited half a day, and An Mei was nowhere to be seen.
'Is An Mei with a guest?' Helen asked the nightclub manager.
'Yes,' the manager said. 'It's a difficult guest that won't let An Mei leave their side.'
'Take me to An Mei,' Helen said.
'Helen, you know the rules here,' the manager said. 'Don't make trouble for An Mei.'
'Take me to see that guest,' Helen said. 'I'll take responsibility for anything that happens.'
'Alright,' the manager said. 'Follow me.'
In another VIP room, Fei Jiao Tou ordered her goons to hit
An Mei.
'Bitch, how dare you run out on a guest,' Fei Jiao Tou said.
'Stop!' Helen said.
Helen saw An Mei's bruised face, and she wanted to kill Fei Jiao Tou. She pulled An Mei behind her and Zhen Zhen to protect An Mei.
'Little girl, who do you think you are?' Fei Jiao Tou asked.
'An Mei only serves wine,' Helen said. 'This isn't a brothel, and you have no right to hit An Mei.'
'Little girl, leave before you can't taste food again,' Fei Jiao Tou threatened.
'An Mei is under my protection,' Helen said.
'Are you the owner?' Zhen Zhen asked Fei Jiao Tou.
'Yes,' Fei Jiao Tou said.
'I'll give you one hundred thousand euros to release An Mei from her work contract,' Zhen Zhen offered.
'It sounds like a good offer,' Fei Jiao Tou said. 'But I'll still make a loss, and the Da Household won't be pleased.'
'If you free An Mei from her work contract, I can promise no one from the Da Household will dare to give you trouble,' Zhen Zhen said.
'I have a good feeling about you,' Fei Jiao Tou said. 'I'll believe you, and let you take An Mei. But if I find out you lied to me then I can't promise you can keep your life.'
'Miss Fei, do you want all of us to go bankrupt?' Hua Di Wu asked.
'Big sister Hua, stay out of this,' Fei Jiao Tou said.
'Miss Fei, come outside and I'll give you an incentive to change your mind,' Hua Di Wu said.
'Miss Hua, you wouldn't dare,' Helen said.
'Why wouldn't I dare?' Hua Di Wu asked. 'Tina is my cousin. Even if Da Tu Li is here, she wouldn't stop me.'
'Let's not fight over something trivial when we can drink wine,' Fei Jiao Tou said.
'Thank you Miss Fei,' Zhen Zhen said.
'Don't forget to give me one hundred thousand euros,' Fei Jiao Tou said.
Helen and Zhen Zhen took An Mei back to their VIP room.
'Big sister An Mei, where did they hit you?' Helen asked.
'I'm OK,' An Mei said.
'Big sister An Mei, why didn't you listen to me that this isn't a good place for you to work?' Helen asked.
'I...' An Mei said.
'Big sister An Mei, why do you love Miss Hua when she doesn't love you?' Helen asked.
'I don't care if she doesn't love me,' An Mei said. 'It's enough if I get to be by her side.'
'Helen, An Mei is in the same situation as you,' Zhen Zhen said.
'It's different,' Helen said.
'Why?' An Mei asked. 'Is it because I'm poor?'
'Big sister An Mei, do you think we'll be friends if I cared about status?' Helen asked.
'I'm sorry,' An Mei said. 'I'm being oversensitive.'
'Big sister An Mei, I want you to meet big sister Zhen Zhen,' Helen said. 'Big sister Zhen Zhen, when I was younger I was kidnapped. Big sister An Mei was the person who saved me.'
'You two can catch up,' Zhen Zhen said. 'I'm going to the bathroom.'
Zhen Zhen walked to the bathroom and she bumped into Sally.
'Sally?' Zhen Zhen asked. 'Why aren't you in Las Vegas?'
'It's your fault Dui Lan's bankrupt,' Sally said. 'I came here to make a fresh start. I'm not going to let you live a happy life either...'
Hua Di Wu struck Sally's head, and Sally fell dead on the floor.
After Zhen Zhen lived with Yue Gu Zai, she was desensitized from seeing dead bodies.
'Miss Hua?' Zhen Zhen asked.
'If you die then there is no one who can pay one hundred thousand euros for An Mei to leave here,' Hua Di Wu said.
Zhen Zhen didn't understand why Hua Di Wu would secretly help An Mei to leave but acted like Hua Di Wu didn't care about An Mei.
By the time Helen and An Mei went to the bathroom to look for Zhen Zhen, Sally's body was taken away and they only saw Zhen Zhen and Hua Di Wu talking to each other.
'Big sister Zhen Zhen, did Miss Hua do anything to you?' Helen asked.
'No,' Zhen Zhen said. 'I'm tired. Let's go home.'
'Um,' Helen said. 'Big sister An Mei, take care of yourself. We'll see each other next time.'
'Bye,' An Mei said.
'Bye Miss Zhen Zhen,' Hua Di Wu said and blew a kiss.
Late at night, Yue Gu Zai, Bai Yu Tian, Chu Gian, Huyen Di and Cheng Yi returned to Yue Gu Zai's home. The moment they stepped out of the car, Yue Gu Zai's home was blown up.
'Let go of me!' Yue Gu Zai said.
Yue Gu Zai wanted to run into the burning house to save Zhen Zhen.
'Boss, if Miss Zhen Zhen is inside, she would have died instantly,' Bai Yu Tian said.
'I'm going to kill Shu Tang Jue,' Yue Gu Zai said.
Yue Gu Zai remembered all the days he spent with Zhen Zhen, including when she lost her memory, their wedding day and their honeymoon. He blamed himself for not taking Zhen Zhen with him that day.
Everyone around Yue Gu Zai didn't know how to console the grieving Yue Gu Zai. They weren't used to seeing Yue Gu Zai's face showing emotions.
'What happened?' Zhen Zhen asked.
Everyone turned around, and they thought they were seeing Zhen Zhen's spirit.
