Chapter 007: Mount Tai

In the following days, Wang Bo continued to live a decadent life, like a salted fish.

Living in a mansion, eating luxurious food that no one else in this world can eat, and if he could sleep with a few young models and celebrities, then his life would be complete.

But unfortunately, in this world, Wang Bo currently only knew two people.

One was Ya Zi, the other was Chun Li.

He didn't know anyone else, so even if he wanted to sleep with young models or celebrities, he had no way in.

In fact, over the past few days, Wang Bo had called either Yazi or Chunli to invite them out for a meal.

But unfortunately, both women refused him, as if by prior agreement.

Yazi's reason was that she had been extremely busy with work during this period, so she had no time.

Chun-Li's reason was that she had received a mission and was in the United States, so she had even less time.

In response, Wang Bo was also helpless. He didn't suspect the two women of lying, after all, on the day he met them, the three of them had a pleasant conversation and gained a preliminary understanding of each other. The two women should have no reason to refuse Wang Bo without cause.

Clearly, they really had things to do.

One was a Hong Kong police officer, the other an Interpol officer. It would be nonsense to say that the two of them were as idle as Wang Bo.

Since both women were busy, Wang Bo couldn't be bothered to go out and just stayed home, continuing to laze around like a salted fish.

However, what Wang Bo did not expect was that an unexpected phone call interrupted his peace.

Wan Ming, save me!!

That evening, Wang Bo had just finished dinner when he heard the phone ring. As soon as he answered, he heard a miserable voice wailing on the line.

Wang Bo was taken aback by the voice, and it took him a while to remember who it was.

"Mount Tai?"

"It's me, it's me, save me, Wanming."

This Taishan was Wanming's brother, the man who shared a deep bond with Wanming.

However, Taishan was Wanming's brother, but not Wang Bo's brother.

After Wang Bo replaced Wan Ming, he did not continue this friendship with Taishan and gradually grew distant from him. Of course, Wang Bo was not a cold-blooded person either.

Before distancing himself from Taishan, Wang Bo had once given Taishan a sum of money.

One million Hong Kong dollars.

To be honest, this sum of money was absolutely a huge fortune in these times. As long as Taishan could be a bit more ambitious and not squander it, he could live a comfortable life for the rest of his days.

However, what Wang Bo did not expect was that after getting the money, Taishan became arrogant. Not only did he spend money lavishly, but he even took to gambling with others.

As a result, within just a few days, the one million was completely lost by him.

So the guy slunk back again, tail between his legs, to borrow money from Wang Bo.

But this time, having learned from the previous lesson, Wang Bo only gave him one hundred thousand and told him that this was the last time he would support him.

Wang Bo hoped that this guy could use the 100,000 Hong Kong dollars to start a small business and then live a steady life.

At that time, he told Taishan in no uncertain terms that this was the last hundred thousand, and if Taishan spent this money, he would not lend him a single cent.

However, in Taishan's eyes, Wang Bo's behavior was betrayal.

The two had once sworn that if one became rich and powerful, they would not forget the other.

But after Wang Bo got rich, he reduced his interactions with him, and now he's not even willing to lend a little money—this is betrayal, so he is very angry at Wang Bo's behavior.

At that time, Taishan was so agitated that he was beside himself, and once gesticulated wildly in front of Wang Bo, swearing, “I don't have a brother like you. Someone like you is too high for me to reach. From now on, our bond is severed, and we will never have anything to do with each other again.”

Then, with great panache, he left with the hundred thousand yuan.

Incidentally, he had made that oath in front of Wang Bo just half a month ago.

Yet in less than a month, Wang Bo received his distress call.

Wang Bo was also helpless, and said into the phone, "Taishan, weren't we supposed to never have anything to do with each other again?"

But on the other end of the line, there was only a scream like a chicken being slaughtered at Mount Tai: 'Save me, Wanming! If you don't save me this time, I'll really die. You must save me...'

Wang Bo couldn't help but sigh.

Just then, a low voice came through the phone on the other end, "You're Wanming, Taishan's brother?"

"Who are you?" Wang Bo asked.

"Don't worry about who I am. All you need to know now is that your brother Taishan owes us five hundred thousand. I'll give you three hours. If you can't come up with the money, your brother's life is over."

To be honest, Wang Bo really wanted to say, 'Do whatever you want.'

After all, Taishan was Wanming's brother, but Wang Bo was merely substituting for Wanming; he truly was not Wanming, he was Wang Bo.

He couldn't be like Wanming, who would risk his own life to save Taishan.

But considering that Taishan was also a human life, and saving him wouldn't require risking his own, Wang Bo still agreed. “Fifty thousand, right? Fine. Where are you? I'll come find you.”

The man on the phone said with satisfaction, "Very good, come to Mingtang Nightclub, I'll be waiting for you here."

Wang Bo said, "Alright, wait for me. I'll be there soon."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Bo drove his car, left Repulse Bay, and went all the way to the nightclub.

Incidentally, the car was bought by Wang Bo at the same time as the villa, but he rarely drove it, because it wasn't as fun to drive as the Batmobile.

Of course, this also had a lot to do with Wang Bo rarely leaving Repulse Bay.

Wang Bo parked the car by the roadside and walked in through the entrance of the nightclub.

Nightclubs originated in places such as France and Germany.

They are divided into Western-style, Chinese-style, and Japanese-style nightclubs.

Japanese-style nightclubs evolved from high-end Japanese nightclubs and were very popular on Hong Kong Island during its economic boom from the 1980s to the mid-1990s. Their consumption levels were astonishing by the standards of that era, as well as by the consumption index of the early 21st century.

Japanese-style nightclubs are similar to dance halls, featuring a dance floor, with a mama-san as the hostess, and hostesses accompanying guests to dance, drink, and have fun. During their heyday, these nightclubs also held various kinds of performances, such as dance shows and live singing.

The period from 1990 to 1997 was the heyday of Japanese-style nightclubs.

Of all this, Wang Bo knew nothing.

His understanding of nightclubs was very simple... these places were only for people of ill repute.

A man like him would never linger in a nightclub.

After Wang Bo entered the nightclub, he saw a shocking scene.

Below the stage sat a dense crowd of people.

On the stage, a woman wearing a wig was singing; from the look on her face, she seemed very reluctant. Even a fool could tell she was being forced.

Directly in front of the stage, the only man in white among the crowd held a microphone and sang a duet with the woman on stage.

The singing was especially unpleasant, but the audience below was still cheering desperately.

This is really putting these people in a difficult position.
