55: Chapter 55 Who do you think you are?_1 55: Chapter 55 Who do you think you are?_1 Mei, in her heart, naturally also wanted to get away from Ghost Qi!

After all, what Ghost Qi did last time had truly chilled her to the bone, even more so than Ye Long, who didn’t hesitate to offend Wang Shuangjiang and Du Jianguo, avenging her directly!

It might seem a bit impulsive, but deep down, Mei liked this impulsive streak in Ye Long.

It made her feel very safe!

“Then I’ll listen to you.

When I have the time, I’ll bring this up with him!” Mei nodded and said.

“That’s more like it, Mei.

With me here, you don’t need any man to look after you.

My protection is more effective than anyone else’s!” Ye Long said with a smile.

When Ye Long said this, Mei actually felt it was true.

From the incident with Wang Shuangjiang, it was clear that there seemed to be no one Ye Long wouldn’t dare to offend!

“Ye Long, I have another matter I need to discuss with you,” Mei said.

“What’s up?” Ye Long asked.

“Now that Fathead Snake has been caught, I want to take over his bar.

That place is a goldmine.

Every year, Fathead Snake could make millions from that establishment!” Mei said.

“That’s easy to solve, just take it over.

I agree, no problem!” Ye Long said.

“But taking over that place will probably require quite a bit of money.

It’s a problem that has to be solved!” Mei said.

“Roughly how much money is needed?” Ye Long asked.

“Considering the location, it would need at least five hundred thousand a year.

KTV requires cash flow, so half a million isn’t a small amount!” Mei said with some worry.

“That’s no problem, I’m rich!” Ye Long said, waving his hand.

Mei looked at Ye Long helplessly and said, “How much can you really have?

This isn’t fifty or sixty thousand, this is five hundred thousand!”

“Heh, Mei, you’re underestimating me.

Is half a million a lot?

I don’t think it’s a lot!” Ye Long spread his hands and said.

“The way you talk, five hundred thousand seems like fifty cents.

People who don’t know you might not realize how rich you are.

Always bragging!” Mei rolled her eyes at Ye Long.

This guy would brag regardless of whether it was realistic or not.

If he really had that much money, then why would he go through all the trouble to apply for a waiter job at her KTV?

Ye Long waved his hand and said confidently, “Mei, just go and talk to them.

I’ll sort out the money issue for you.

Although I don’t have any money, I have ways to get it!”

“You’re not planning to rob a bank, are you?” Mei said skeptically as she looked at Ye Long.

“Tsk…

you’re seriously underestimating my intelligence.

Do I look that childish to you?” Ye Long said, waving his hand.

Mei laughed and said, “Alright, you’re not childish.

Not having money is no big deal , I’ll find a way.

As long as I have you by my side, there’s nothing I’d worry about or fear!”

“Cough cough, Mei, can I take that to mean you can’t live without me, that you’ve fallen for me?” Ye Long leaned in closer and said.

Mei pushed Ye Long away, then pinched him, saying, “You’re at it again, huh?”

“Heh, who can blame me when Mei is so beautiful!” Ye Long said.

“Oh, the nerve!” Mei rolled her eyes at Ye Long, then stood up and said, “Enough, you look after the KTV for now.

I’m going to go talk about the transfer of Fathead Bar and see what the exact price will be.

Luckily, we still have ample time to prepare!”

“Alright then, off you go.

Everything’s fine here with me!” Ye Long said, waving his hand.

After Mei left, Ye Long felt bored, so he went downstairs to the front desk to find Xiao Lan!

Ye Long came to the front desk, called out to Xiao Lan, and gave her a pat!

“Ah…

you’re trying to kill me, you scared me to death!” Xiao Lan, after being patted by Ye Long, let out a startled cry and could only pat her chest.

“Xiao Lan, what are you afraid of?

I’m not a bad guy!” Ye Long curled his mouth and spread his hands as he spoke.

“You, with so many people around, couldn’t you find a place with fewer people?

And, could you make a little noise when you walk?” Xiao Lan said helplessly.

“Then how about we go upstairs and chat alone?!” Ye Long looked at Xiao Lan with a slight smile.

Xiao Lan had only just escaped Ye Long’s clutches, and she wasn’t about to fall for it that easily!

“No way, I still have work to do.

If Mei finds out, my wages will be docked, and I need to live.

I can’t afford to lose my wages!” Xiao Lan said to Ye Long.

Ye Long curled his lips and spread his hands, “No problem, you’ve got me.

It’s just money anyway!”

“Hmph, you talk as if you’re so rich!” Xiao Lan said.

“Hey, I am very rich, you know!” Ye Long replied in a flirty tone.

“Pfft!” Xiao Lan snorted.

“Xiao Lan, seriously, when are we going to complete that task we didn’t finish last time?” Ye Long asked mischievously.

“When I have time, but not now, can’t you see all the guests coming and going?” Xiao Lan decisively refused.

“Alright then, let me know when you’re free!” Ye Long could only nod helplessly.

Without Xiao Lan’s consent, he couldn’t just force himself upon her.

Now, Ye Long was full of regret.

If only he had made his move earlier on Xiao Lan, he wouldn’t have missed an opportunity.

It was going to be difficult to find another chance.

“Seventh Brother!”

At that moment, a greeter at the door nodded and called out.

Hearing the sound, Ye Long turned his head towards the entrance and saw Ghost Qi coming in with two bodyguards!

With Mei not around, Ye Long had no choice but to go over and greet them himself!

He then naughtily pinched Xiao Lan’s butt and left the front desk to welcome them!

“Brother Ye, where’s Mei?” Ghost Qi asked Ye Long with a beaming smile.

Ghost Qi had always been polite to Ye Long.

After all, Ye Long’s formidable strength meant that it was inconvenient for Ghost Qi to offend him.

Someone like that was worth ingratiating oneself with.

Ghost Qi did indeed entertain the idea of recruiting Ye Long as his underling, but letting Ye Long know that he harbored such thoughts might just result in a punch that would send Ghost Qi flying!

“Mei isn’t here.

What do you need?” Ye Long wasn’t exactly fond of Ghost Qi.

“So where did Mei go?” Ghost Qi inquired.

Ye Long flashed a grin, spread his hands at Ghost Qi, and said with disdain, “Who do you think you are?

Am I obliged to report her whereabouts to you?”

In saying so, Ye Long was unmistakably slapping Ghost Qi across the face, clearly showing he didn’t see Ghost Qi as any significant figure at all!

Upon hearing Ye Long’s words, Ghost Qi’s expression darkened!
