Chapter 258 Bet
Chapter 258 Bet
Looking at the chaotic scene in the office, Han Che suddenly remembered the boss's strange behavior and asked.
"Could this boss be in cahoots with those people?"
"I also suspect that's the case, but there's no evidence, and even if there were evidence, there's not much we could do to deal with this kind of person..." Xiaobai sighed.
"How did they know your location? There must be some way they got your information..." Han Che frowned. "Besides asking you to take a break, did the boss do anything else strange?"
Xiao Bai pondered for a moment, "He accidentally fired a few shots, walking around and then suddenly opening fire for no reason. He said it was because he bumped into something by accident."
"That's it. We used the gunshots to pinpoint your location. The boss is dead too? He's really ruthless to get back at you."
"How is Lao Zhou? Is his injury serious?" Han Che asked with concern.
"I was hit on the head and bled a lot. Qiu Ying said I needed several stitches." Xiao Bai was a little down. "Han Che, am I a terrible club owner? Sometimes I'm too naive, and as a result, my players got injured..." Xiao Bai felt guilty and blamed himself.
Han Che watched as Xiao Bai gradually hugged her knees and curled up, looking aggrieved, and felt a little sorry for her.
For some reason, he reached out and ruffled Xiaobai's hair. "You did a great job. It's those people who don't know what's good for them."
"Next time, don't worry about it. I'll escort them. Let's see if they dare to cause trouble again."
Hearing Han Che say this, Xiao Bai looked up at him, feeling somewhat moved.
"Forget it, Han Che, I appreciate your kindness, but I think we're not strong enough right now, and we're too big to be ignored. I'd like to stop for a while and wait for this storm to pass before starting again."
"Then you'll lose all your fame and business. You've worked so hard to build up this reputation."
"There's nothing we can do about it..." Xiaobai sighed helplessly. "Besides, Lao Zhou is injured, and Qiu Ying has to take care of him, so she can't leave. There's no one to help you."
The office fell silent again, but the sounds of Ah Kai and the others packing up and dragging chairs could still be heard occasionally in the lobby.
Han Che leaned against the table, looking down at Xiao Bai, who was huddled in the chair.
She's usually quite assertive at the club, speaking frankly and acting decisively, but now she's all curled up in a ball.
Han Che suddenly chuckled, "That's easy, come with me." He said, extending his hand.
Xiao Bai was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Han Che.
In the dim light, a long, slender hand stopped in front of her.
"I..." Xiaobai opened her mouth. "I can't, I'm afraid I'll hold you back."
"You're worried about holding me back? Didn't you have to finish me off when I played against Said?"
"Besides, you're the owner of Club 78. With this public relations crisis, if you don't go, who will?"
"Forget it, I really can't do it, my mind is a mess right now."
"And I have a feeling that those people were targeting us this time. If we go again, something might happen again."
Her voice grew softer and softer until she finally buried her face in her knees.
Looking at her like this, Han Che couldn't help but sigh, "Do you know what you look like right now?"
"Like what?" Xiaobai asked sullenly.
"Like a small business owner who has just failed in his startup and is about to pack up and run away."
"..." Xiaobai looked up and glared at him, annoyed.
"I was originally a small business owner."
"That doesn't mean we have to surrender immediately." Han Che squatted down to look her in the eye.
"Think about it carefully, why would they dare to do this to you?"
"Because you guys are popular now, because Club 78 has been getting a lot of orders lately, and its reputation has improved."
"They're afraid you'll continue doing this, so they're deliberately trying to ruin your reputation."
"If you really stop now, wouldn't that be telling everyone they've won?"
Xiao Bai bit her lip and didn't say anything.
Han Che continued, "And to put it bluntly, they're just taking advantage of your lack of resources. Why don't they target Longteng and Fengming instead?"
"The saying goes, 'A single punch can prevent a hundred punches; retreating solves nothing.'"
After hesitating for a moment, Xiaobai said softly, "But I really don't want anyone else to get hurt."
Han Che looked at her, and those words made him take her words a little more seriously.
He could tell that Xiaobai wasn't afraid of losing face or the club going bankrupt; she genuinely felt sorry for Lao Zhou and the others.
This girl is too responsible; she likes to take on everything herself.
Han Che suddenly raised his hand and flicked her forehead.
Xiao Bai exclaimed "Ya!"
"What are you doing!"
"To bring you to your senses." Han Che stood up.
"This wasn't your problem to begin with. You run an escort club, not a charity. It's normal for people to be envious. This is an inevitable part of growing from a small club to a large one."
"Are you expecting me to blame myself for not sweeping the floor properly if someone poops in front of my door?"
Xiao Bai was initially quite aggrieved, but upon hearing this, she couldn't hold back and burst out laughing. Realizing it was inappropriate, she quickly covered her mouth.
Xiao Bai pursed her lips slightly. In fact, looking back now, she realized there were indeed many problems.
The boss was acting strangely the whole way, but she was only focused on the customer experience and didn't think about anything else.
After all, who would have thought that someone would spend so much money just to scam them once?
"Okay," Han Che suddenly said seriously, "let's make a bet."
Xiao Bai looked up. "What kind of bet?"
"If I fail to successfully escort you out this time, I will work for free at Club 78 from now on. I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Xiao Bai thought for a moment, "I haven't given you much money yet, it's all your own earnings, what kind of bet is this?"
"That's different. I'm a free agent now. You win, and I'll sell myself to Club 78 from now on."
"You've hit the jackpot."
Han Che said these words with a serious expression, which made Xiao Bai roll her eyes at him.
"Who wants you to sell yourself..."
"Tsk, then don't worry about it." Han Che waved his hand.
"Weren't you always worried that I'd be poached by another club? You won't lose by taking a gamble."
Xiao Bai was startled, and then his ears suddenly felt hot.
She was indeed worried; Han Che's strength was too outrageous.
This kind of player would be a core player in any club, and the 78 club is just starting to gain some fame.
If someone were to offer him a high price, Xiaobai wouldn't have the confidence to stay.
Han Che actually brought it up directly, and she quickly lowered her head and brushed her hair aside, "Then... what if you succeed?"
Han Che grinned.
"If I bring you guys out here, I'll put one of you into our club."
"A friend of mine is pretty brain-dead." As he said this, Han Che glanced away, not daring to look at Xiao Bai.
"He's got nowhere to eat lately, so I'm having him work at Club 78."
After listening, Xiaobai blinked. Of course, she didn't believe that the "brainless friend" Han Che mentioned was really an ordinary person.
What kind of simple characters could Han Che possibly know?
Moreover, when he said this, it was clear that he had planned it all along.
Xiao Bai couldn't help but ask, "Isn't this a win-win situation for me no matter what?"
Han Che chuckled and urged, "So, are you going to answer it or not?"
Seeing Han Che's confident expression, Xiao Bai chuckled softly, reached out, and patted Han Che's hand as a high-five.
"Okay, then I believe you!"
