Chapter 708: Don’t Find a Random Woman For Yunxiao
Lu Jingye sat there and looked perfectly calm and collected. “My wife is rather timid.”
Zhang Ze believed Lu Jingye’s words and even kindly reminded him. “In that case, Mr. Lu should protect Mrs. Lu well. After all, there are not many kind souls here and I’m afraid they might hurt Mrs. Lu out of clumsiness.”
“Yes.”
Zhang Ze noticed how Lu Jingye did not wish to continue the topic about his wife and so, he tacitly brought up the purpose of his visit. “My eldest brother heard that Mr. Lu has arrived at the Bermuda Triangle. He specially sent me over to invite you over for dinner at our place.”
Speaking of this, he even added. “I believe Mr. Lu will give this level of face to my brother at the very least?”
Lu Jingye looked at him with a calm expression. He tapped his finger on his thigh and did not reply immediately. However, he did exude a powerful and sharp aura.
Soon, Zhang Ze was unable to withstand the aura Lu Jingye radiated and he said with a laugh, “Mr. Lu, don’t be mistaken. My brother is sincerely inviting you over for dinner. What’s more, we still want to do business with you.”
Only then did Lu Jingye nod his head and he said, “I can’t make it tomorrow. I promised my wife to stay at home and accompany her.”
When Zhang Ze was about to speak, Lu Jingye said, “I’ll come the day after tomorrow.”

When Zi Yi came downstairs, the guest had already left.
The two brothers were currently sitting on the sofa and having a discussion.
Coincidentally, Lu Yunxiao asked, “Can sister-in-law create the soundwave blocker?”
As soon as Lu Yunxiao asked that question, he saw Zi Yi coming downstairs and he kept his mouth shut.
Zi Yi walked over to Lu Jingye’s side and sat down before she asked, “What’s the matter?”
Lu Jingye told her about the situation.
Zi Yi nodded her head. “As long as we can gather everything I need by tonight, I can make the soundwave blocker in a day’s time.”
However, she was afraid that they would not be able to gather all the materials.
“However, it doesn’t matter if we can’t gather everything either. The female worm has no effect on me. I’ll accompany you when the time comes, she doesn’t dare to approach me.”
Even though Lu Jingye did not want Zi Yi to get in contact with those people, they had no other choice.
“Aren’t we heading to the clubhouse? Are we leaving after dinner or will we be leaving right now?”
Zi Yi wanted to leave right now and so, she blinked her pair of pretty eyes, while looking at Lu Jingye expectantly.
Lu Jingye raised his hand and gently stroked her hair. “There’s a restaurant there, but it might not suit your tastes.”
Zi Yi looked at him with a confused expression.
Lu Jingye added. “The dishes there taste a bit too strong.”
Zi Yi originally thought he meant that the restaurant used plenty of spices in their dishes. However, when she sat down in the restaurant, she looked at the menu. The dishes were either made using protected animals in their country or made with various ingredients that were restricted. She silently took out the snacks Lu Jingye specially prepared for her and started to eat them.
“I don’t like to eat these things. You two should eat less of them too.”
The three of them had changed their appearances before they came over.
Lu Jingye looked like an ordinary businessman right now, while Lu Yunxiao was the bodyguard and Zi Yi had tanned her skin color and added freckles all over her face.
The two men had retracted the auras that they radiated and so they had not attracted anyone’s attention from the moment they entered the clubhouse.
Lu Jingye and Lu Yunxiao had eaten a large bowl of noodles before they came out and so, it did not matter much to them if they ate or not.
They were mainly there to accompany Zi Yi to experience the dishes here.
However, the experience was clearly not too good.
Zi Yi took a sip of the warm water and asked, “No one has ever expressed their dissatisfaction with the fact that the restaurant serves such food?”
Lu Jingye did not answer her. Instead, he motioned for her to look at the other customers.
Several men who looked as if they had returned from the wild were sitting next to their table. All of them drank large mouthfuls of alcohol and took a large bite of the meat. There was no need to mention how much they seemed to be enjoying the food.
One of the burly men sighed. “As expected, the X meat here is the most authentic, and coupled with a little XX, it’s simply a delicacy!”
His other two companions had also agreed with him.
Subsequently, another burly man said, “Let’s go and gamble a round or two after eating. I’ve gotten someone read my future and they said that I will be making a large fortune this time. Hahaha…”
“Not bad. However, we’re here to sell goods. It’s fine to gamble, but don’t forget the time.”
“How could I possibly forget. Where would I get the money if I don’t sell the goods?”
The burly men toasted to each other and each one drank the whole bowl of alcohol in one breath.
Zi Yi then shifted her attention to another table. Both of the people sitting at the table did not look too old and they seemed to be from a country near the Bermuda Triangle.
“I heard that a beautiful woman will be auctioned off tonight. She was sent over here from the Mei Race.”
“Really?” The other party rubbed his hands in excitement. “I heard that women who are trained by the Mei Race are simply the best in that aspect. It can make people die from lust!”
“Hehe, that’s right. Let’s go and take a look later. Perhaps if we’re lucky, we can manage to buy that woman. We’ll play with her together if that happens, it’ll surely be extremely enjoyable.”
“Hehe…”
Hearing their wretched laughter, Zi Yi tilted her head and looked at Lu Jingye. In the next second, she shifted her attention to Lu Yunxiao.
Lu Yunxiao sipped on the tea with an expressionless face as if he had not noticed her gaze.
Just then, a large palm pressed on Zi Yi’s head and Lu Jingye’s helpless voice sounded. “Don’t find a random woman for Yunxiao.”
Zi Yi shrugged her shoulders. “I was only thinking if we should head over to the auction and see how attractive the woman that was sent over by the Mei Race is.”
“Women from the Mei Race start learning the art of seduction when they are young. It’s not that they are attractive.”
With a scorching gaze, Zi Yi looked at Lu Jingye who explained to her with a calm expression. She asked, “How do you know this?”
“I have traded with their patriarch before.”
“…” Zi Yi could not hold back and continued asking as she held his arm, “What did you trade?”
To have traded with the Mei Race, could it be that they had traded the women?
Her man had unexpectedly traded with the Mei Race in the past!
Lu Jingye was amused by Zi Yi’s puffed-up cheeks and he patted her hand. “What’s that little brain of yours thinking all day long? I have dealt with an extensive range of things in the past and the Mei Race does not only trade the women they have. They also do proper trades.”
Zi Yi was silent for a few seconds and let go of him. “… Alright then. Based on your old-fashioned personality, I doubt you would do anything out of line either.”
Lu Jingye: “…”
Lu Yunxiao who was seated next to them: “…”
In the end, the trio left the restaurant without eating much.
After entering the lobby, they found it was crowded with people.
It was noisy and bustling.
From a first glance, those people did not seem like nice people.
Lu Jingye explained to Zi Yi about the layout here.
“The first floor is rather mixed. There are areas for meals and dancing places. The second floor is the casino. The third floor contains private rooms and all private transactions are held there. The fourth floor is where the trading of explicit things happens.
“The first level of the basement is a fighting ring and the second level of the basement is where the auction is.
“Other than the third and fourth floor, you can go anywhere you like.”
Zi Yi thought about it and said, “Why don’t we go and check out the casino?”
Speaking of this, her lips curved up. “We can win some money to buy stuff at the auction house.”
Lu Jingye nodded his head and the three of them headed up to the second floor together.
After they reached the second floor, what they saw was a large hall.
There were all sorts of different games, but all of them were crowded with people.
Everyone playing at the tables were surrounded by many spectators. From time to time, there would be voices of cheering or wailing.
The three of them casually looked around and Zi Yi asked Lu Jingye, “Ah Jing, do you know how to gamble?”
Lu Jingye nodded. “Yes. So does Yunxiao.”
Zi Yi rubbed her hands together and she said, “Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go and experience all the games here.”
