Someone like me, full of darkness, would be afraid when encountering light and would not be able to hold onto it.
I was born into a poor family. My parents worked tirelessly day and night, but they couldn’t even feed us properly. When I was ten, they were killed in a car crash on their way home by a drunk driver who had lost control.
- 7.
The driver was wealthy and powerful, and not only did he escape legal responsibility, but he also didn’t have to pay any compensation.
I was furious!

Furious at how these rich people could so casually trample on the rules and take lives, even more so at my own powerlessness in the face of it all.
After my parents‘ death, I was left with only my elderly grandmother.
Grandmother was old and had trouble walking, and no one was willing to hire her.
was still underage, and employing child labor was illegal, so I couldn’t find work either.
What was even more ridiculous was that I couldn’t even apply for government aid!
To survive, I had no choice but to search through garbage cans and eat scraps.

At sixteen, my grandmother also passed away.
My world lost all its color and became nothing but a blank expanse.
Living had no meaning at all!
It would be better to die!
With such thoughts, I went to a roadside and planned to wait for a large truck to speed by so I could run into it and let it crush me.
However, just as I was about to rush out, someone grabbed my clothes.
He was the owner of a nightclub, and upon seeing me, he thought I had some looks and asked me to work for him at the club.
The customers at the club were all kinds of

people, both male and female, young and old, but none of them were normal!
They all had their own fetishes, such as BDSM, role–playing, bestiality…
Anything that the human mind could not imagine could be seen at this club.
The boss looked at me and said, “You look like a poor thing, right? If you come work here and perform well, making it big is only a matter of time.”
“Making it big? I don’t need that! I need power and influence!”
“Money is the stepping stone for you to gain power and influence!”
It was this sentence that persuaded me!

I didn’t just want money; I wanted power and influence. I wanted to be above the rules, where those who followed me would prosper, and those who opposed me would perish!
I didn’t want the tragedy that happened to my parents to happen to me again!
If I couldn’t change the miserable fate brought on by my class, then death would be the best relief.
The boss’s words gave me hope.
I began working at his club, gradually learning how to read people’s expressions, and my performance steadily improved!
Many of the clients I entertained were just fleeting encounters.
Except for one married man.

His name was Thurston, a British gentleman, and he was quite willing to spend money on

Every time he came to my table, no matter what drink I recommended, he would order it, and each time, he would spend thousands of dollars, which was many times more generous than other customers.

To me, he was truly a fool.
Because not only did he spend money lavishly on me, but he also told me that when he was with me, he felt the feeling of love!
Love?
I truly sneered at those two words!
What is love? Can it feed me? Can it stop

The answer is: yes!
Because I took advantage of his love for me and tricked him into spending all his assets.
He no longer had money to spend and could only send me harassing messages, begging me to meet with him.

After all, such a fool is hard to find!
But later, I realized that he really had no money left and couldn’t come up with any more, so I began to grow tired of him.
I blocked all his contact information.
To my surprise, he sneaked into the club and

cornered me in the restroom.
He was like a dog, wagging its tail and begging.
“Why did you block all my contacts? Don’t you know I’m going crazy thinking about you?”
“You really do look like a madman now!” I looked him up and down with disdain, “I told you, don’t come here acting like a big spender when you don’t have money! Get lost, don’t disturb me while I’m working!”
“You actually spoke to me like that? Didn’t you say I was your treasure, and you would always keep me in your heart?”
