"Does this art lounge often host these kinds of events?"
Ye Kai walked forward with the waiter, chatting idly.
The Chang'an Club has a large and winding interior, so it's easy to get lost if you're not familiar with it.
Fortunately, the requirements for members here are very high, and the level of service is even higher. No matter where you go, there will be a corresponding waiter to take care of you, so you won't get lost or unable to find your way.
"It's not held very often."
"The club will have a variety of different activities on rotation, in order to avoid members getting tired of the same old things."
The waiter explained in a low voice.
"Is this what I mean by 'Beijing socialites'?"
Ye Kai hesitated for a moment, then asked a question with some hesitation.
"That's roughly how it's generally understood."
"Every socialite who comes here has their own different pursuits, or rather, life has marked a price for everyone."
The waiter hesitated for a moment, but still expressed his opinion rather subtly.
It's just a slightly more upscale transaction.
Ye Kai nodded, thinking to himself that this waiter was quite professional and spoke with good manners, answering Ye Kai's question without directly addressing the substantive issue of monetary transactions.
No wonder Chang'an Club has maintained its position as the top business club in Beijing; just looking at the quality of its service staff gives you a glimpse into its excellence.
"However, sir, please rest assured that the socialites who have passed the selection process to come here have no health concerns."
"They all have the latest medical examination reports, provided by reputable tertiary hospitals, which are legally valid."
Perhaps seeing Ye Kai's youth and potential, the waiter couldn't help but say a few more words.
If the guests they guide find a target in the art lounge and take it home, the guide will receive a reward, which may be much higher than her salary.
Of course, this reward wasn't free; she also needed to act as a bridge between the two parties, communicating about prices and their taboos, which wasn't easy.
"Approximately what's the price?"
Ye Kai asked another question.
Although he is rich, it's not a problem for him to know the market.
"Fifty thousand, one hundred thousand, that's all we need."
"That's what the waiter replied."
Here, everyone may want different things, but the price is a generally accepted standard.
If it's easy to negotiate, you can take it away for only 50,000. If the other party's refusal isn't so firm, it will cost 100,000. As for if the other party ignores the price, then they must be after something else or someone else, and there's no need to continue negotiating.
"Understood."
Ye Kai nodded, thinking to himself that boys should go out and move around more, otherwise how could they learn so much useless knowledge?
"Ruoxi".
"Look at this painting! It looks like an original. Shouldn't it be on display in the Louvre?"
Inside the art lounge, a girl wearing a white off-the-shoulder dress with a silver belt around her waist, her hair piled high, and a sparkling diamond necklace, was excitedly talking to her female companion.
"Su Jin".
"Anything that appears here is not a counterfeit."
"The important people who hold art exhibitions here must have their own channels to get these paintings exhibited here; you have no doubt about that."
The girl named Ruoxi wore a black lace dress, the fabric of which was partially concealed, exuding a touch of sexiness and mystery. Her hair was slightly curled and draped over her shoulders, and she wore a thin black ribbon around her neck. Her face was fair and delicate, making her look like a porcelain doll.
The two, one in black and one in white, stood hand in hand, creating a striking visual impact.
The men around couldn't help but glance at her, but they all seemed to have agreed to stop and not move forward.
"Chairman Chen."
"These two 'Black and White Duo' look to be of very high quality; you might not encounter one even once every few years. Mr. Chen, aren't you tempted?"
People nearby were whispering and laughing.
"It's precisely because the quality is so high that I dare not touch it."
"Beautiful women are like poisonous flowers; the more beautiful they are, the more poisonous they are. I dare not touch them easily, lest I get myself into a lot of trouble."
Chairman Chen shook his head, indicating that he was politely declining.
Just kidding, this isn't one of those private clubs.
This is an art lounge, and any special circumstances will quickly spread throughout the entire capital.
If anyone tries to take advantage of this beautiful pair of black and white demons, their household will likely be in turmoil very soon.
The men who come here for entertainment are basically super-rich men with families. Why would they risk becoming a laughing stock and getting themselves into trouble just for a moment of pleasure?
Compared to Su Jin, who was cheerfully dressed in white, Wang Ruoxi, dressed in black, was not in high spirits.
She was brought here by Su Jin, and at this moment she was restless, her mind filled with troubling family matters.
This is one of the most famous places of fame and fortune in the capital.
It is here that everything is priced, even the girls coming and going. Once they enter this gate, they become part of the commodities that can be sold.
Although there is no forced buying or selling here, the money offensive of the wealthy is incredibly powerful, and few people can resist such temptations.
Even her friend Su Jin, who seems innocent and naive, who would dare say that her purpose in coming here is so pure?
The art lounge hosted by Chang'an Club certainly has many genuine works, which are very attractive to Su Jin, who is studying art appreciation. But is it really necessary to undergo a comprehensive medical examination in advance and submit the medical report to the organizer for review in order to be qualified to enter the place?
Any girl with a brain would realize that such an activity is not innocent.
However, Wang Ruoxi could only sigh inwardly and could not blame Su Jin for anything.
After all, she only got this opportunity to come here after asking Su Jin for help.
That's right, because of a family emergency, she needs a lot of money right now.
Without special channels, she simply wouldn't have been able to raise so much money in such a short time, nor would she have been able to solve the problems her family was facing.
Thinking of this, Wang Ruoxi couldn't help but tug at her black lace dress, loosening the slightly uncomfortable parts.
They bought new clothes specifically for this trip, and they were quite expensive.
If I can't achieve my goal today, then this money will be wasted, since the shopkeeper specifically stated that there would be no returns or exchanges when she sold these two pieces of clothing.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to get these two outfits at such a low price.
"Ruoxi".
"Our target doesn't seem to be here."
Su Jin looked away from the painting and said to Wang Ruoxi in a low voice, somewhat nervously.
