Lena Brown was definitely among the beauties, but today, Yusuf Zuck was in a bad mood for one, preoccupied with thoughts for another, and thirdly, he did not want to flirt around any longer. He had only known Lena Brown for one night, and perhaps her Western education had made her very open, but Yusuf had to consider what he would do after a night of passion with her?
Should he make her his girlfriend? Or a secret lover?
Moreover, he really didn’t know anything about Lena Brown’s past. What if she had been promiscuous abroad, had been with many foreigners, and gotten diseases that might afflict him as well?
For these various reasons, he did not act on impulse like an animal in heat. He calmly rejected Lena Brown’s advances, which might hurt her pride and dignity, but such matters needed mutual affection.
He wasn’t in the mood, so even if she stripped naked and spread her legs in front of him, he wouldn’t be interested. Follow current novels on novel~fire~net
Men sometimes need to exercise self-restraint. Yusuf Zuck might not be a good man, but overall, he was quite conservative. The women he dated also had to be clean.
Like Ruth Wilcox, Miles O’brien, Ember Vance, or even Mia, Nurse Paisley Kirk, and so on—these women were simple in their emotions, clean in body, and their emotional experiences were not that complex.
Yusuf once saw a post on the internet discussing the choice between ’virgins and non-virgins.’ Some people were open-minded, believing that as long as the relationship was good, they didn’t care about their women’s past, but others cared deeply about that aspect of a woman.
Yusuf was conservative too. He believed that if he were to marry, he needed to find a virgin, but if it was for a mistress or just to satisfy his desires, he wouldn’t be picky.
With someone like Lena Brown, Yusuf didn’t know anything about her past, and he didn’t want to get entangled with her. Getting involved with her might lead to endless troubles later, so decisively rejecting her was the best choice.
About ten minutes later, Lena Brown exited the bathroom, now dressed. However, her eyes were swollen from crying.
Yusuf didn’t know what to say to comfort her, so the atmosphere was awkward, and she just sat on the bed in silence.
"I’m sorry, I don’t want to betray my girlfriend. I hope you understand!" Yusuf could only lie to give her a way out. It wasn’t her problem; it was his!
"You’re a good man. It’s my fault, sorry, I... I just... I..." As she spoke, she began to cry again, embarrassed.
"I understand, I understand. Actually, I’d very much like to fuck you..." Yusuf suddenly became vulgar, trying to break the awkward atmosphere between them.
"Ugh, why would you say something so offensive!" Lena Brown was turned upside down by Yusuf’s words, feeling disoriented by his crudeness.
"Heh, I’m stating a fact. It’s just that with today’s mood and this environment, I’m not up for it. Besides, I don’t want us after returning to our country to never cross paths again. That’s not the outcome I want, and I fear it’s not what you want either!"
"You’re very rational and composed. I’ve never met a man as sensible as you. I was willing, not expecting you to take responsibility, but... but... anyway, I don’t have a boyfriend," Lena Brown spoke candidly. It was just the two of them, so whatever was said wouldn’t be heard by anyone else.
"Let’s not discuss this. Nothing happened today. You better get some sleep, and I need to sleep too. Getting back home is what’s most important!" Yusuf cut off the topic, otherwise, they might end up back together if they kept talking.
"Your girlfriend must be pretty, huh?" Lena Brown lay down on the bed and said.
"Not bad," Yusuf chuckled.
"So, how many girlfriends have you had?"
"So, have you ever... been with any of them?" Lena Brown asked curiously.
"Ahem, that’s quite a bold question, is this how girls are abroad?" Yusuf Zuck countered.
"Not all of them, but this kind of topic is pretty normal overseas. The United States is an open country, where everything is free."
"How about you, how many have you had?" Now that the topic was on the table and there were no others around, Yusuf Zuck was also curious about how many men Lena Brown had been with!
"Two." Lena Brown didn’t shy away from the topic: "One was my boyfriend during college, the other was a colleague after I started working, but I broke up with both. But I asked you, and you haven’t answered yet!"
"I’ve had quite a few too, I’ve forgotten exactly how many..." Yusuf Zuck shrugged.
"Tch, you men are all the same, you permit yourselves to light fires but don’t let the common people light lamps!"
"It’s a matter of philosophy, I’m indeed the type who allows only myself to start fires, and forbids others to light lamps," Yusuf Zuck laughed.
"Typical male chauvinism. But I’m so embarrassed today, you must never mention what happened today to others, otherwise, I’ll never forgive you!" Lena Brown swung her small fist.
"Okay, okay." Yusuf Zuck nodded repeatedly, the girl seemed to recover quickly - probably because she was open-minded.
After chatting for a while, Lena Brown got sleepy. She had been up all night the day before, so she fell asleep while talking. Yusuf Zuck didn’t sleep, continuing to lie in bed and think.
By noon, Yusuf Zuck was hungry. There were instant noodles in the room, he ate a bowl, and then continued to wait.
However, what Yusuf Zuck didn’t know was that after a night of searching in Las Vegas, various powers had soon tracked Yusuf Zuck and Lena Brown’s whereabouts through different channels. The two had actually taken a plane to Mexico City.
The casinos in Las Vegas were all a part of the Dark World. They also had connections, more or less, with the Gangs in Mexico.
Mexico City is chaotic, rife with drugs and high crime rates, thus fostering many world-renowned criminal Gang organizations.
In Mexico City, kidnappings occur daily, and people die in abnormal circumstances every day. Gangs rampage unchecked, and there once was a time when three city mayors died in succession, and even a female mayor was stripped and photographed, with the images spread online.
And in the rumors, the Gangs collude with local government officials.
Just a few months ago, Mexico was in world headlines for an incident where hundreds of students disappeared overnight during a school-organized summer camp. Subsequent news reports revealed that these students were killed by Gangs, who were in collusion with local police, city hall, and even the mayor among others.
This is reality, not fiction, and it also shows that gang organizations here are completely lawless.
The major gambling powerhouses of Las Vegas joined forces with Gangs in Mexico to search for Yusuf Zuck and Collins Brown.
The Gangs in Mexico had immense power, and in less than a day, by three in the afternoon, they had found through police insiders that a Chinese woman named Collins Brown had checked into a hotel at the airport!
With Collins Brown appearing, the Chinese man named Yusuf Zuck would definitely be there as well. Therefore, at half-past three in the afternoon, as Yusuf Zuck was drowsily dozing off, two portly police officers arrived at the airport hotel and knocked on Yusuf Zuck’s room door!
"Huh~" Hearing the knocking, Yusuf Zuck, who was in a daze, bolted upright, and Lena Brown also jolted awake with a start.
