Beyond the Clock

On the Bund in S City, the big customs clock points to eight o'clock sharp.

Every time she sees this time, Jiang Qingyao knows it's time to go to war, standing in front of the mirror in the lounge, earnestly fixing her lipstick, the brilliant cherry red color best reflects her temperament.

Taking off the coat on her body, inside was a black halter dress, the hem of the skirt swaying lightly above her knees, sexy but not too elegant, charming and flirtatious, outlining the young girl's delicate body curves.

"Calista, your guest is here."Lyra urged at the door.

"Coming, you help me mop for a while first."Jiang Qingyao nonchalantly straightened her hair.

Lyra grunted and left the doorway.

Jiang Qingyao pushes the door open and crosses the dance floor, which is not her home turf, where men and women are enjoying themselves to the fullest amidst deafening music and blinding lights, smoke, perfume, and alcohol mixing together.The bartender brought her a mojito, and she mentally took it in stride, then the reflection of the glass did see her guest in the corner.

She purposely dawdled for a moment, as if she hadn't seen them by accident, and replaced it with a charmingly beautiful smile, comparing it to a mouthful of, Here I am.

Tonight's guests are the ones who have been here a few times, Jiang Qingyao and they are familiar with each other, plus she is very good at finding topics, it didn't take long to get into a hot conversation.Seeing that the time was ripe, she was just about to start asking the guests to order her wine and buy her a fruit plate, when a waiter came, her brows imperceptibly furrowed and quickly stretched.

The waiter brought a glass of Golden Peach Champagne: "Miss Calista, this is the Golden Peach Champagne that Mr. sent you, asking me to bring a message: 'Fine wine matches a beautiful woman', I hope you will smile."

The corner of Jiang Qingyao's mouth raised slightly, her fingers resting on the champagne, turning her head with a professional smile, looking at the guest beside her as if inquiring, her smile deepened appropriately, "It's a good glass of wine, I don't know if the guest is interested in joining me in the usual?"

The guest was obviously pleased by her inquiry, and waved his hand repeatedly, "How can I compete with Calista for the heart of the wine giver?It's natural for Calista to enjoy such a good thing alone."

Jiang Qingyao elegantly got up, her soft tone carried a firmness that could not be refuted, "Then please also forgive me for being absent today, I will first find a quiet place to savor this bottle of 'Good Wine'."

The guest didn't dare to stay, on his lips he said that this time he was not destined to talk next time, looking at Jiang Qingyao's back as she left, he was still inexplicably a bit unwilling to pay for someone to accompany him for a chat, and just like that, a high-level member called someone away with a bottle of expensive champagne, and he didn't even notice that there was another young lady coming to the table.

"She's so worldly and gold-digging, isn't she?"Coldly a female voice came from beside her.

"Yeah, isn't it just being rich, how great is that?Can you do whatever you want just because you have money?Do you know what is called first come first served!"The guest was indignant, getting angrier and angrier as she spoke.

"Then do you hate her?"The woman asked again.

"How can I not hate it?"The guest responded casually, "She took my money and didn't stay with me, but how dare I keep her?"

"She will come back to keep you company."The woman said with conviction, "I promise, she will stay with you, she took your money."

The customer then realized there was someone else around, "You're here to take her place, right?I'll order a fruit plate and credit it to Calista's performance, she did keep me company for a while after all ..."

"She didn't finish chatting and you gave him the bill?"The woman seemed angry.

"I enjoyed chatting with her, she gets me and understands me, but you guys, do you understand me?"

The woman said sarcastically, "Understand, she understands that your wallet can spend her money, right?"

The guest then looked up at the woman, the woman was young and looked to be in her early twenties, on her body was a black diamond encrusted dress, the skirt showed off her dimpled figure just right, the low-cut collar outlined her perfect collarbone and charming curves, the short skirt was just above her upper thighs trimming her long legs, the bold backless design, her skin was hidden and mysteriously seductive.She wore silver high heels on her feet, with tiny crystals on thin chains around her ankles that sparkled as she walked.Her exaggerated diamond earrings were dazzling, and her ornate wristwatch and the black leather clutch in her hand complemented her outfit, looking like dazzling stars in the dim light.

The woman smiled, the guest was bluffed carefully asked: "Miss, you will not come really right?Sorry ah, the mood is not good, she is a good person, never let me give her more money, are just up to her performance standards ..."

The woman smiled wistfully, "Of course...lying to you, I paid for the wine to send her, how could I possibly harm her?You sit here for a while, I'll let someone else accompany you without charging you, feed you, serve the wine to this gentleman to make up for Calista's failure to keep you company tonight, I wish you a good time."
