Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Do Not Change Fate, But Follow Destiny

"Brother Yu, can you stay for a bit longer before you leave?" Ah Wen approached Yang Yu, who was getting ready to clock out, and said, "The brothers want to treat you to a drink. Would you do us the honor?"

Yang Yu was momentarily stunned, then smiled and nodded, "Sure, let’s go!"

The crowd found a small pub near the club and booked a private room, with more than ten people sitting down together.

Ah Wen directly brought in ten cases of beer, seemingly preparing for a big drinking session.

Before the Yin Yang Nine Mysterious Scripture was activated, Yang Yu’s alcohol tolerance was quite decent.

Now, getting him drunk was almost an impossibility.

Just because he couldn’t get drunk didn’t mean the others couldn’t: "Colleagues, you’ve already had so much tonight, drinking more is harmful to your health!"

As a host at the Silver Horse Club, the most frequent task was to accompany rich women in chatting and drinking, so Yang Yu kindly reminded them.

"Don’t worry, Brother Yu, we usually take great care of ourselves. Just making an exception tonight," Ah Wen said with a laugh, "Who cares if it’s bad for our health when we’re happy to have Brother Yu drink with us!"

"Exactly!" Everyone nodded in agreement, "Tonight is mainly about treating Brother Yu to a drink, to drink until we can’t anymore!"

"Come on, let’s all toast to Brother Yu first!"

Everyone picked up their bottles and gulped down an entire bottle in unison.

Yang Yu also picked up a bottle and without hesitation emptied it in one go.

"That’s right, Brother Yu is a true brother!" The crowd was ecstatic, "Although you’re younger than all of us, we all respect you. You’re the most righteous guy we’ve ever met. You wouldn’t mind us calling you ’Brother Yu,’ would you?"

"I don’t mind at all." Yang Yu finally understood why they had invited him for drinks and replied with a faint smile, "Guys, if you don’t mind, just call me Ah Yu. I don’t want to feel old before my time."

"Haha..." They all laughed heartily, "Brother Yu, stop it, that settles it. We truly respect you!"

"Right, we really hope that one day Brother Yu can take Manager Zhou’s place."

"That guy would push his brothers into the fire pit when there’s trouble, he’s despicable!"

When Manager Zhou was brought up, everyone was filled with grievances, and Yang Yu hastily explained: "Guys, Manager Zhou has his own difficulties too. He’s afraid of losing his job and can only deal with things in the usual way. I have the confidence, naturally I am not afraid. Think about it, if it had been you in that situation, what would you have done?"

Silenced by Yang Yu’s question, everyone fell quiet.

Indeed, all of them were people dismissed by worldly society, having to sell their bodies to make money. If they were truly faced with a situation, many of them might not handle it even as well as Manager Zhou did!

"Life’s tough for everyone, here, I’ll toast on behalf of Manager Zhou to all of you; let’s understand each other." Yang Yu picked up the bottle and finished yet another one with everyone.

After the two bottles were downed, everyone started to open up and the conversation flowed more freely.

Everyone carefully avoided discussing their daytime identities, since that was a taboo.

They simply chatted about the gossip from the club, like the time a certain host struck it rich by getting lucky with a ball game.

After finishing those stories, they started to talk about their own aspirations.

"Once I’ve saved up enough for my girlfriend’s dowry and for a house, I’ll work hard and enjoy life with her."

"I want to save enough money for my mother’s kidney transplant. After that, I’ll travel for half a year before coming back to look for work slowly."

"My wish is to pay off all my father’s gambling debts so he won’t touch gambling again in this lifetime."

"My son has Down syndrome, my wife divorced me, and all I can do is earn enough to provide for him for the rest of his life."

As they spoke, each of them began to cry.

Yang Yu also felt particularly upset. Indeed, many in this line of work were lazy and only interested in fast money, but even more were pitiable people driven by the hardships of life.

All beings suffer; there are only a few who have an easy life in this world.

Only with the power of the Yin Yang Nine Mysterious Scripture had he been able to change his destiny. Otherwise, he would have been no different from them.

"The ’Yin Yang Nine Mysterious Scripture’ contains a phrase: do not alter fate, but go with the flow."

In other words, Yang Yu shouldn’t randomly give out millions or tens of millions, changing their destinies, for it might bring them misfortune instead.

The best approach is to help them when they are in need.

Since fate has brought them together, he should lend a hand when there is a chance!

Ah Wen suddenly asked, "Brother Yu, what is your wish?"

"Me?" After thinking for a moment, Yang Yu replied with a slight smile, "My wish is to serve someone for five years, and then get married, have children, and live out my life in peace."

Yang Yu’s answer was quite clever; he neither lied nor revealed the critical information.

Working for Shen Silin for five years, he was likely to become a significant figure in Tianhai City after five years had passed.

As for getting married and having children, it seemed like Shen Silin was the only one he could marry.

After all, Shen Silin was his woman already; he could never stand by and watch Shen Silin marry someone else.

Although he didn’t yet have the means to marry Shen Silin, he had five more years.

In those five years, he could turn the world upside down!

"Come on, here’s to everyone achieving their hearts’ desires! To dreams coming true!"

"Cheers! Bottoms up!"

The group continued drinking until each had finished a case, and then they left the small tavern, thoroughly satisfied.

By the time Yang Yu got home, it was already dawn.

Just as he was about to get some good sleep, Shen Silin’s call came through: "Yang Yu, come to my place at nine to pick up my mom and take her to the antique auction."

"What?" Yang Yu was utterly perplexed, "Why can’t Mr. Shen pick her up? Why me?"

Shen Silin said, "My dad has already passed away."

Yang Yu felt a sudden heaviness in his heart and was silent for a while before he spoke, "Mr. Shen, I’m sorry."

"It’s okay, it’s been many years," Shen Silin said in a still very calm tone, "The bodyguard who usually sticks by my mom had to go home for a personal matter, and I don’t trust the other bodyguards to protect her."

"I understand." Yang Yu patted his chest, "Leave Auntie to me, you can rest assured!"

"Now I’m suddenly a little worried," Shen Silin huffed, "My mom is so beautiful."

Yang Yu: "......"

"A woman nearing fifty, no matter how beautiful, how far can it go?" Two hours later, Yang Yu parked near the Shen Family’s residence in Tianhai City, waiting for Mrs. Shen while muttering under his breath.

He parked nearby because it was not permissible to stop at the gate of the Shen Family’s house.

The Shen family of Tianhai, one of the top ten families, owned a property akin to a grand manor; Yang Yu’s seaside villa was probably on par with their woodshed.

"Am I such a beast to covet her mother?" While Yang Yu was muttering about Shen Silin, a woman wearing fashionable straw hat and sunglasses got into the car.

Yang Yu immediately turned around, "Hey, lady, this is not a taxi. Don’t just get in, I am waiting for... waiting for someone..."

Yang Yu froze because it was his first time seeing such a beautiful "auntie."

The woman was very stylishly dressed, with makeup applied perfectly.

They say time is merciless, but looking at her figure and skin, as well as her exquisite appearance, it could only be said that time had been very kind to her.

While Yang Yu was still stunned, the woman already spoke up, "What are you looking at? I am the person you’re supposed to be waiting for. Hurry up, or if we’re late, I’ll have Xiao Lin skin you alive!"
