Elizabeth Bennet thought that night was the end of her nightmare, but little did she know it was just the beginning. Her sole desire was to live a safe life with her family, hidden from the horrors of her past. However, on that fateful evening, she encountered the source of her nightmares.
She believed she was close to the edge of happiness, only to find it was the start of another nightmare. Disappointment after disappointment, escape after escape, left her with wounds all over her body. She wanted to hold onto her small blessings, but they brought her great pain, repeated attempts, and repeated disappointments.
Elizabeth longed to escape, but she was trapped in an even larger whirlpool waiting for her...
I work across from a high-rise office building. Once, I should have been one of the white-collar workers drinking coffee inside, but for various reasons, I became a manager here. Every early morning when Im drunk, I like to stare at the sparsely lit office building opposite, thinking about stepping out of here and jumping over to live a normal life. Of course, for now, this is just a luxury.
Two years ago, I became the manager of The Imperial Joy, not because of my excellence or because I look particularly beautiful under heavy makeup, but rather by a stroke of misfortune. At that time, I had a close friend who I took a drink for, but she drugged me, and in the end, I didnt even know who I slept with. Just after that night, I was inexplicably promoted to manager.
Of course, she was also expelled from The Imperial Joy. Over the past two years, Ive been doing quite well, but my poor drinking ability leaves me drunk every day, muddled and messy. Its already two in the morning, and Ive poured down a large glass of beer, my throat burning painfully. In an hour, these people should disperse.
"Drink! Ive got plenty of money!" A fat middle-aged man threw a stack of money on the table and, pinching the chin of one of my girls, poured a large glass of wine down her like water. The girl was choked, her face flushed, and she looked at me imploringly.
You see, Ive been able to sit steadily in the managers position for two years, and I couldnt have done it without the support of these girls. Because I protect them, they will also support me. "Brother, let me drink with you." I stood up and sat next to the man and drained a cup of wine.
Under normal circumstances, I dont have to drink with customers, but tonight this group has spent 200,000, and to show sincerity, the boss specifically asked me to come out and accompany them. And my uncontrollable stomach has already begun to ache slightly.
But apparently, this man did not intend to give me face. He smashed the wine glass, his face trembling with anger. "You all come here! Drink one and take one. Those who dont want to drink, take off a piece and take one!" The man threw out a stack of money again, much thicker than before.
The people around him lewdly laughed, and I felt a lump in my heart. These people were already drunk and crazy. I was afraid something would happen tonight. A few young ones who had never seen such a scene tried to slip away quietly to the door, but a man with a tattoo on his face grabbed them back and slapped them: "The boss hasnt spoken yet, who the hell dares to leave?"
"All drink for me! If you dont drink, take it off!"
More than a dozen men, drunk, were like mad dogs. They were no longer satisfied with just pouring wine, but were abnormally excited and began to chase the girls to take off their clothes. The private room was in chaos.
Realizing that something was wrong, I quickly called my boss, but no one answered. "No, please spare me..."
"Ill drink, dont take it off..."
"No, I dont want the money..."
The private room was filled with the girls cries and pleas, and the group of men, like wolves and dogs, pressed them down, beating and scolding at will, it was like hell. But this is the third floor VIP service area, and the waiters dare not enter without the guests call. So the wailing of these girls can only be heard by me.
Anger burned in my heart, so when a lewd man reached out to me, I opened his head with a beer bottle. The noisy private room suddenly quieted down, and I was still holding half a broken bottle in my hand.
"Sister Lu..." The girls ran to me in panic.
"You all get out."
They seemed to be stunned by my sudden outbreak, so the girls escaped smoothly.
"Brother!" The man I just opened my head called out, covering his head.
The man next to me suddenly sobered up, grasped the broken bottle shard in his hand, threw me forward, and my head hit the corner of the marble table, and blood flowed immediately.
"What are you, something? The bosss people you say drive away, are you tired of living!"
I wiped the blood from my face and stood up, barely pulling out a smile: "I am the manager of this place, Jane, I have offended just now, and I will pay for this brothers medical expenses..."
Bang! Before I finished, I got a slap in the face.
When I looked up, I saw a fierce-looking man standing in front of me.
He picked up my chin and spat: "Even my people dare to move, not small courage."
"You drove away those women, now use you to serve us!"
"Hey, the manager of The Imperial Joy, we havent played yet."
I looked at the men surrounding me in horror, they were absolutely not joking, and I was afraid of the end tonight.
I grabbed the ground glass fragments, and I wished I could stab them into that mans stomach. But with just myself, Im afraid Ill be knocked down before I stand up.
"Brother, I just lost my hand just now, you are generous..."
Bang! Another slap.
The man kicked me out a meter away: "My people, the whole east district, who dares to move? I came to The Imperial Joy to drink and give your boss face, and you spoiled everyones interest today, which is to hit my Qin Biaos face!"
Qin Biao?!
That notorious and evil Qin Biao! No wonder the boss said that the big guy who came today should be served carefully, but she still got into his hands by bad luck.
"Today I, Qin Biao, am the host, and there is no reason not to let the brothers enjoy themselves. Brothers, play first, and when this woman is played out, I will find others for you!"
As soon as Qin Biao spoke, a group of men came towards me.
I looked at them in horror and stepped back until I was pressed against the wall and shouted: "Qin Biao, you dare to move a woman of Cheng Anfeng?"
Qin Biaos eyes sank, and he suddenly laughed loudly: "Do you think Im a three-year-old?"
I calmed my mind and smiled: "Brother Qin, Anfeng often mentions you in front of me, saying that you are the most righteous. I was wrong just now, and I will accompany you and this brother, and now if Brother Qin wants to move me again, it is to lose face for Anfeng."
Qin Biaos face changed, and my heart was about to jump out of my throat, and I said while heating: "Brother Qin, you know Anfengs temper, if I have a scar on my face, what do you think he will do?"
Qin Biao finally showed a look of fear in his eyes, and at the moment, it was just a delaying
