"Hey, do you want to go on a date~?"
The pink-haired girl was visibly happy when her newly bought clothes were recognized instantly.
At the same time, I was thinking about something.
Boxing club?
Is this the reason why A Zhen suddenly became so strong?
But quickly put all that behind you.
Tao Jing Wu Yue let go of Gong Yang Zhen's arm and turned around on the spot, showing him this black open-collared halter dress. The dress was very slim-fitting, and the graceful curve was touching. The neckline was not very open, but it still could not cover the two full moons, and a deep groove like a white jade bowl was faintly visible.
This was a mature style that she had specially chosen. After all, the place she was going to today was a place for adults, which she had not been allowed in last time because she looked too childish.
This is not a dangerous place for a middle school girl to go to. If she were alone, she would never go there.
But isn’t there a flower guardian protecting her? If it were A Zhen, he would definitely be able to protect himself.
But what would it be like when your childhood sweetheart works there?
The kind of man who is dressed in a suit and tie, shaking a cocktail bottle in his hand, with a warm and elegant smile on his face, saying things like "Cheers to your bright eyes", and gently bringing the mixed drinks to the customers?
Just thinking about it makes me feel that he is so handsome that it is breathtaking.
"..."
Little did he know that Gong Yang Zhen's expression was somewhat complicated at this moment.
Dating?
hiss.
Even if my brain is full of shit, I would never ask a girl out to watch boxing on a date.
"...Anyway, I'm going to go up and wipe the sweat off my face and put my underwear away. Give me five minutes."
"Huh? You want a vacuum again?"
"Don't say weird things."
Watching Gong Yangzhen's figure disappear in the corridor, Tao Jing Wuyue pinched her chin and looked thoughtful.
This?
Is A Zhen a gigolo?
Chapter 21 Who in the World Doesn’t Know You
Half a month later, Gong Yang Zhen visited Crazy Los Santos Bar again.
When he first arrived, he stood under the spotlight like a minion, but when he came again, almost everyone recognized him.
Just because he defeated the guy who almost represented the highest fighting level in the underground boxing ring in Los Santos in front of everyone.
"Look, over there!"
"…It's that guy, is he going to appear today?"
"That should be the case. I heard that he is still a student. He would not come to such a place unless he has work to do."
"'Young Wolf'?... As expected, his claws and fangs are sharp. He is really a formidable fellow. You said he is a student? Do you know where he studies?"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Mr. Kawamoto has specified that no dirty things can be done to him. Apart from boxing, he is not allowed to have anything to do with anything dirty. And what about 'Young Wolf'? That's a thing of the past, haha."
As soon as his agile body appeared in the bar, he attracted a lot of attention, giving people a feeling of "everyone in the world knows him". Even the musicians playing instruments on the DJ stage noticed his arrival and played a melodious and elegant entrance music for him with a smile on their faces.
People frequently raised their glasses from a distance, and the sound of provocative whistles could be heard constantly.
Tao Jing Wu Yue saw everything. She was dazzled by the colorful neon lights and her eyes were dry. She raised her other arm to rub her eyes, and suddenly found someone following her from the corner of her eye, and she couldn't help but be slightly startled.
"Ah Zhen..."
"Don't worry, they're not following us. They just happen to be going the same way as us. They want to go down with us too."
Gong Yang Zhen glanced sideways, and received smiles that were either flattering or encouraging and supportive.
Perhaps there really is some kind of person who has an inexplicable mentality of developing a habit, and who feels happy when he sees himself achieve good results.
But there are definitely more people who are the kind of gamblers who would bet their wives and daughters if they have no money. Such people just want to make a fortune by betting.
After all, we cannot take this kind of place lightly. Gong Yangzhen gently let go of Tao Jing Wuyue's hand.
"!"
The broad and warm hand suddenly left, Tao Jing Satsuki was slightly startled, and then she felt the hand around her neck and hugged her shoulders.
So she leaned into his arms, feeling the warmth of the boy's body almost at close range, and her slightly uneasy heart suddenly calmed down.
She heard the deep guttural sound of the ram echoing in her ears, giving her ears and eyes a special feeling of comfort.
"Don't reveal any personal information to anyone, don't make eye contact with them, don't accept any drinks or food that disappears from your sight... and most importantly, don't come to a place like this alone. If you still want to see me work, ask me to accompany you."
Of course, it would be best not to set foot here again.
Gong Yang Zhen looked straight ahead and used his arms to block the back of Tao Jing Wu Yue's head and profile to prevent any possible peeping.
To be honest, he didn't actually want to bring this girl to such a place at first.
It’s not that Crazy Los Santos Bar is a lawless place or a paradise of sin, but rather that it is a store that operates in a very standardized manner.
The boss here, Masao Kawamoto, was once a Yakuza. He respects the "benevolence and righteousness" of their way. Many dark things have no soil to survive here.
But it is a nightclub after all, and it also hosts black boxing tournaments, so there are always all kinds of people hanging around, such as the Yakuza, gamblers, and some people that are expressly forbidden by certain bosses to appear in the store, but sometimes there are still people who bring something that once you get involved, you can never get rid of it for the rest of your life.
Tao Jing Satsuki should belong to a world full of sunshine and flowers, and should not set foot in a place where good girls should not go.
But Gong Yang Zhen still chose to satisfy the curiosity of his childhood sweetheart.
I just hope that something like last time where we were blocked in an alley won’t happen again.
Tao Jing Wu Yue whispered: "I understand...but why do they all seem to know you? Is Zhen very famous here?"
"I guess I'm a bit famous. As to why..."
Gong Yangzhen held the girl with one hand and put the other hand in his pocket. His jacket zipper was zipped up to the bottom, ready to take off the unnecessary things at any time. His sculpted chest and abdomen were exposed under the light, bulging slightly like the scales of a giant dragon.
"——Maybe it's because they think I'm strong."
…………
Underground boxing ring.
The place where Gong Yangzhen waited for the first time was actually a small private room, where Kawamoto Masao had been waiting for a long time.
He saw Gong Yang Zhen walk in and was about to speak, but then he saw the beautiful girl in his arms and fell silent.
"Is this the friend you mentioned who wanted to come and watch the game?"
"Yes. Please look after her while I am on the field. You are the only one I can trust here."
"...I don't mind. Just let her stay here and don't go out."
After saying that, he glanced at Tao Jing Satsuki with a scrutinizing look. Kawamoto Masao narrowed his eyes slightly and could not tell whether he was happy or angry: "Isn't this the lady who was stopped outside the store last time? Are you sure she is someone you can trust?"
Hearing this, Gong Yangzhen said casually: "Ah, my woman."
"!"
Taoi Satsuki happily hugged his waist.
Seeing this, Kawamoto Masao immediately waved his hands and laughed dumbly: "Arrogant little brat... What kind of woman are you looking for at your age? A girlfriend is just a girlfriend, talk nicely."
"By the way, your opponent today should not be underestimated. I have sent some of his game videos to your email. Have you watched them?"
"I looked at it while lying in bed last night. How should I put it... I am the type of person who has absolutely no experience in fighting."
"Heh, after all, he's a newcomer who just played one game. So what do you say? Do you have any idea?"
“It won’t be easy to win, but it shouldn’t be easy to lose.”
"…So confident?"
Masao Kawamoto was slightly surprised.
The kid in front of him is indeed gifted with talent that is visible to the naked eye, and his starting point as a boxer is definitely high enough.
But I vaguely remember that before the last match, which was his debut match, this guy was still trying hard to hide his nervousness. How come he is so confident after only not seeing him for half a month?
He looked so calm and composed, and even said something that sounded like a declaration of victory?
He was thinking about the matter but remained calm on the surface. He continued, "It would be best if we are sure of winning. The opponent is a boxer from the same level organization as our Broken Tooth Group. Signing up for our competition this time may be a provocation... Well, forget it, you don't need to know these things. Just focus on the competition."
"……I see."
I have already known a little about the underworld background of "Crazy Los Santos" before. I roughly know that the boss Masao Kawamoto is a direct member of the "Kan Chi Group", a subsidiary organization of the large-scale underworld organization "Renhe Group", and is considered a person with a good background.
According to him, today's opponent seems to be a boxer supported by another sub-organization of Renhe Group?
Coming to challenge?
Forget it, it doesn't matter.
Just as Masao Kawamoto said, the disputes in this world have nothing to do with him, he is only responsible for fighting.
Chapter 22 Female Gambler
"Then I'll go warm up first."
"Well, go ahead, and don't get carried down later."
"Heh... Taozi, just wait here for a while. If you want to watch the match, this place may be a little far away, and the view may not be as clear as under the ring, but there won't be any messy people around."
"..."
Even the most thick-skinned person would have an idea of Gong Yang Zhen's current job after seeing and hearing everything along the way, not to mention that Tao Jing Wu Yue is not a stupid person.
Underground boxing matches, life-and-death duels, black boxing.
All of the above nouns are basically synonymous with “dangerous”.
Her mood was quite complicated at the moment, but she didn't show it on her face. Tao Jing Mayu just agreed obediently, and then watched Gong Yang Zhen take off his coat, sweatpants, shoes and socks, and walked out of the private room wearing only black sports shorts.
She stared at Gong Yangzhen's figure disappearing at the door, lost in thought.
Kawamoto Masao glanced at her side profile for a long time and said casually, "This is his second time participating in a boxing match... Last time he was like a quail, so nervous that he needed me to accompany him all the time. This time he is like an eagle that has learned to fly, familiar with the route and confident."
"…So fighting is an incomparable baptism for men. When this guy first came to me and said he wanted to fight with me, I thought he was crazy. I first met him in a restaurant. At that time, he must have been a poor man with nothing at home. He made a living by working. In his spare time, he would study his lessons with a book in his hand."
"He should be a good student, but I can't see any talent in fighting. It seems like I really underestimated him today."
"..."
Tao Jing Wu Yue did not interrupt, but just listened to Gong Yang Zhen's past in silence. She felt a little bit of the same when she heard this.
Mingming didn't look like a black boxer at all when he was in school. He was just a tall, thin, excellent boy with good grades. The only thing that made him extraordinary was that he gave people a mature and stable feeling, which was different from his impetuous peers.
She heard Kawamoto Masao casually say, "What's your name?"
"...May, Momoi May."
"You like that boy? Did you know he was doing this before?"
Tao Jing Wu Yue faced the direction of the ring, her eyes following Gong Yang Zhen's figure.
At the same time, I was guessing the purpose of Mr. Kawamoto's question.
It seems that Ah Zhen's guarantee did not dispel Mr. Kawamoto's suspicion of me. He is probably checking whether I will do anything bad to the boxer he likes?
I don't know, anyway, I'll just answer whatever I ask. Tao Jing Mayu slightly lowered her eyes and said, "I like it, I like it very much... As for this new job, I really have never known anything about it before."
"Can you accept it? I think most ordinary girls can't accept that their boyfriends are secretly doing dangerous and gray-area work, right?"
"..."
This can be said to be a very pointed question.
Tao Jing Satsuki couldn't answer this question right away. She was silent for a long time and just said softly: "I may... need to watch the whole battle before I can answer this question."
"...That's it."
Masao Kawamoto withdrew his gaze. It was hard to say what he felt about the girl's words. He just walked slowly to the fence outside the private room with an expressionless face, also looking at the conspicuous figure from afar.
"Then let's see what kind of performance he will bring in this game—"
"Hey! Kawamoto!"
"...?"
