In the VIP room of a club.
"Clank!" A black eight on the table was accurately stroked into the pocket. Charlie Hogg handed the cue to the waiter beside him, took out a cigarette and lit it, then walked to the bathroom.- Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Simon Chin, who was leaning against the bar counter, winked to the woman at the table.
The woman gave a charming smile and put down her glass immediately. She wriggled gracefully and followed him.
Ten minutes later, Charlie Hogg and the woman walked out one after another. The woman's beautiful face was full of disappointment. She walked to the bar counter and shook her head at Simon Chin: "Mr. Chin..."
Simon Chin walked to Charlie Hogg and asked, "Charlie, still not work?"
Charlie Hogg frowned.
The perfume of the woman still on his coat, which made Charlie Hogg very uncomfortable. Then, he took off his coat.
"Don't you really like men, do you?" Simon Chin bantered.
"F**k off!" Charlie Hogg glanced at him.
"Just kidding!" Simon Chin stroked his chin and analyzed it seriously: "You slept with a girl the night before yesterday. And I also heard that you tossed the girl to exhausted, which showed that there was no problem with your body!"
Charlie Hogg was a celibate. He had never had a woman with him in the past.
The real reason was he could not have an erection.
He had visited some specialists before, but they all claimed that there was no problem with his body. He didn't have any impulse to those women who wanted to be with him although they were so beautiful and charming. He even felt disgusted. But he was sure that he was absolutely not interested in men.
He lived a lonely life for so many years. Until that night, the desire that had been sleeping for 30 years was completely awakened.
When thinking of the enchanting feeling Wendy Lim brought to him, Charlie Hogg's lower abdomen tightened...
He took the cue from the waiter again and said: "Continue."
Simon Chin took the cue as well, patted Charlie's shoulder and put on a meaningful smile: "Charlie, no worries.I'll help you!"

Wendy Lim gently pushed open the ward door.
It was quite inside, and she tried not to make a sound for fear of disturbing the two old ladies on the bed.
It was not a separate ward. Aother old lady of the same age who had a lung disease shared one ward with Wendy Lim's grandma. Although it was not good for her Grandma's recovery, she couldn't afford a better one. What's more, she could not even afford such a ward soon.
Thanks to the 1,500 bucks her best friend borrowed to her, and together with the 400 bucks from Yolanda Lim, Wendy Li paid the outstanding fee of last month. However, she had no money for this
month.
Wendy Lim put her grandmother's hand on her face, and she could feel soft and warm, which made her eyes fill with sorrow for losing her virginity and being beaten by her father.
Her tears dropped down. She wiped them quickly for fear that grandma would find something wrong when she woke up.
Wendy lost her mother when she was eight. After causing Helen Lee to miscarry by accident, she hadn't been sent to the police because she was too young. However, Johnny Lim drove her out of the Lin family. Since then, Wendy lived with her grandmother, therefore her grandmother was the only family in the world for her.
Wendy Lim looked at the sunset outside and recalled that baked sweet potato was her grandmother's favorite.
The doctor advised her grandmother not to eat it, but her grandmother could eat a little once in a while. Wendy left quietly and walked out of the hospital to the opposite side of the road. She could feel the vendors' enthusiasm in a distance.
When reaching the street corner of the night fair, Wendy Lim heard some footsteps behind her. No matter if she sped up or slowed down, the footsteps followed her closely.
When she was about to turn back, she felt a pain in the nape and fainted.
