Chu Ge hung up the phone, and He Qing looked at him, "What's going on?"

Chu Ge nodded and walked towards the door, "My other neighbor is in a bit of trouble, that nurse named Chu Shiyao. I'm going over to check it out now."

Hearing this, He Qing immediately stood up and followed him to the door, "Something happened to Nurse Chu? I'm coming too."

"Why are you going? I'm going to help someone solve a problem, not to have fun. If you go with me, I'm really afraid you'll make things more complicated."

"I've met Nurse Chu a few times, she's pretty nice, she took good care of my brother too. Plus, she's your neighbor and also my neighbor. The three of us live on the same floor, so we should help each other out, right?"

Chu Ge glanced at He Qing and didn't say anything more. After all, He Qing was quite capable herself, and if she went out, her bodyguards would certainly follow. Letting them help Chu Shiyao solve the problem would be more appropriate than handling it himself.

Seeing that Chu Ge allowed her to come along, He Qing was naturally very pleased and left the door closely following Chu Ge.

Considering that many people in Lidu City recognized Qin Ruojing's Audi A8, Chu Ge didn't drive this time but took a taxi, arriving at the Mile Star Nightclub in just over ten minutes.

However, what left Chu Ge quite speechless was that after he and He Qing got out of the car, there were no signs of He Qing's bodyguards. He couldn't help but frown, "Where are your bodyguards?"

He Qing smiled slightly, "You said you didn't want to draw attention. Don't you think bringing bodyguards would be a bit conspicuous? Besides, with you here, it doesn't matter whether I bring them or not, right?"

Although Chu Ge was quite speechless, he couldn't deny that He Qing was right. However, this time, he'd have to handle things himself again.

In room 501 of the Mile Star Nightclub, there were six people in total, two men and four women. The two men were both under thirty, dressed very exquisitely. Aside from Chu Shiyao, who wore casual clothing, the other three women were all dressed as nurses.

However, the nurse uniforms on these three young women weren't the formal ones from the hospital, but had some modifications, making them look a bit tighter.

Moreover, only Chu Shiyao's clothes were neat and tidy, while the nurse outfits on the other three young women appeared somewhat disheveled.

"Miss Chu, I'm someone who likes to be direct, why don't we discuss the price? How much do you think I should pay you for accompanying me for a month?"

Sitting to the right of a small round table, a man with a cigarette in his hand, face full of mockery, crossed his legs and spoke arrogantly.

This person was Zhang Jinghui, the son of a chairman of a large company worth over hundreds of millions in Lidu City. Eyeing Chu Shiyao's exquisite figure, his gaze was full of desire. He took out a checkbook from his pocket and casually tossed it on the table, his intent unmistakably clear.

Chu Shiyao sat opposite Zhang Jinghui and shook her head firmly, "Young Master Zhang, I'm sorry, I don't wish to discuss this with you."

Although Chu Shiyao's tone was resolute, Zhang Jinghui's expression remained unchanged, mockingly saying, "One hundred thousand."

Seeing that Chu Shiyao remained unfazed, Zhang Jinghui continued, "Two hundred thousand."

"Young Master Zhang, I believe I've made myself quite clear."

As if he hadn't heard Chu Shiyao at all, Zhang Jinghui calmly smoked his cigarette, continuously stating increasingly higher numbers.

In his view, there wasn't a woman in the world money couldn't buy; as long as the price was right, any talk of chastity and virtue was nonsense.

"Three hundred thousand, four hundred thousand… eight hundred thousand, nine hundred thousand, one million!"

Upon hearing this number, the other three nurses in the room swallowed hard. The price was incredibly high, even the other man was somewhat astonished and said, "Young Master Zhang, you're really being generous here!"

Being watched by the other three women and the man, Zhang Jinghui smiled very proudly, and casually signed a cheque for a million, and slapped it onto the small round table with a "slam."

"Miss Chu, I believe I've shown enough sincerity, haven't I?"

Looking at that cheque, the other three nurses' eyes were filled with greed and jealousy. They even regretted having brought Chu Shiyao here.

These three women were all classmates of Chu Shiyao at nursing school, and now they are all working as nurses, but not in the same hospital as Chu Shiyao.

At this moment, their hearts were filled with imbalance. They were all nurses, wasn't it just because she had a slightly prettier face and a better figure than them? Why would Zhang Jinghui be willing to spend so much money on her?

However, under the confident gaze of Zhang Jinghui, and in the envious eyes of these three nurses, Chu Shiyao still firmly shook her head, "Young Master Zhang, it's really not about the money. No matter what, I can't agree."

This time, hearing Chu Shiyao say this, Zhang Jinghui's expression finally changed. He frowned and said in a deep voice, "Nurse Chu, aren't you overestimating yourself a bit? A million a month is more than enough to hire a celebrity; do you really think you're that much of a big deal?"

"Yeah, Yaoyao, although you're doing a bit better than us sisters now, working as a nurse in the special care unit, a million is not something you can earn in ten or eight years. What more could you want?"

Before Chu Shiyao could speak, a nurse on the sofa in the room said jealously.

"Exactly, Yaoyao, don't be foolish, it's a million, just for a month. Such a windfall may only come once in a lifetime."

Another nurse chimed in, her tone also sour. The third nurse, although silent, clearly shared the same attitude.

Hearing her former classmates, whom she thought were on good terms, say such things, Chu Shiyao felt an indescribable discomfort. She had been happy when she got a call from an old classmate asking to meet up.

After work, she came straight here, seeing these two men only as companions of her classmates, she didn't think much of it at the time.

But when her three classmates changed into those special nurse uniforms in the bathroom, she sensed something was wrong. Unfortunately, there were two bodyguards at the door at some point, blocking her way out. She had no choice but to take the opportunity to go to the bathroom to call Chu Ge.

After she made that call, Zhang Jinghui revealed his true intentions and started discussing a price with her.

Seeing Chu Shiyao still shaking her head, Zhang Jinghui's patience was almost gone. Frowning, with a gloomy face, he said again, "Nurse Chu, since you look down on even a million, why not tell me what you really want? Any request, there's no issue on my end."

"I want nothing, no amount of money could make me sell myself. I'm tired, please, Young Master Zhang, let me leave."

This time, Zhang Jinghui finally lost his temper completely. He narrowed his eyes, stood up from the sofa, and said condescendingly, "Ha, what if I insist on buying you?"

Feeling the anger and threat in Zhang Jinghui's voice, Chu Shiyao panicked even more, but she quickly stood up, still firm as she responded, "Then I'll say it one last time, impossible!"

Zhang Jinghui twisted his neck, licked his lips, pointed at Chu Shiyao with a finger, and sneered, "Good, interesting, really interesting. Playing hard to get, huh? I want to see how long you can keep this up. Since you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit, don't blame me for being rude!"

Chu Shiyao's pupils contracted suddenly, her heart became more chaotic, and she instinctively took a few steps back, "You... what are you trying to do?"

As Chu Shiyao retreated a few steps, Zhang Jinghui followed a few steps forward, his gaze becoming more and more unscrupulous, roaming over her body, like a cat toying with a mouse, he spoke mockingly.

"What do I want to do? Nurse Chu, don't you think it's funny to ask this? I originally wanted to give you face, but you don't know what's good for you. Don't blame me for being forceful. I want to see how this body that a million can't buy, differs from other women!"

"You... I... I warn you, don't get any ideas, if... if you dare touch me, I will definitely call the police, this... this is a serious crime! You'll definitely go to jail!"

Looking at Zhang Jinghui's aggressive face, Chu Shiyao realized her words seemed to have no deterrent effect on him, she could only helplessly retreat slowly, her peripheral vision glancing at the other people in the room, hoping the other man and her three former classmates would speak up for her.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, laughter erupted. Whether it was Zhang Jinghui or the other man in the room, they seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, laughing backward and forward, their shoulders shaking with mirth.

"Ha ha ha... I say, Nurse Chu, stop messing around, do you really think such a small matter could land Young Master Zhang in jail? Please wake up, with Young Master Zhang's family background, dealing with this is just a matter of minutes. Just think, if Young Master Zhang is willing to offer you a million, he'd naturally use the money to smooth over any trouble, and it wouldn't even take that much."

It was the man who came with Zhang Jinghui speaking, his eyes full of amusement as he looked at Chu Shiyao.

One of Chu Shiyao's former classmates also chimed in, "Yeah, Yaoyao, stop being stubborn. It was a good thing, why make it so unpleasant? You're turning down money to get punished, what are you thinking?"

The other two women also echoed, advising her not to go against Zhang Jinghui.

Chu Shiyao bit her lip tightly, feeling bitterly disheartened. At this moment, she only hoped that Chu Ge could arrive quickly, otherwise, things would really be bad.
