Chapter 308: To the club again
Chapter 308: To the club again
After all of those dates, I still had some time to myself.
So I decided that I would go to the club.
It had been a long time since I went to the club, so I wanted to see how it was doing.
When I arrived, I was surprised to find that the club had completely changed.
First, it seemed much bigger than before.
I found out later that Sasha had doubled down on the business and had bought the store next door. After buying the store next door, she knocked it down and extended the club to be twice as big as before.
It was no longer a small club, but rather a large club that was much bigger than the rest of the buildings on this street.
There was even a line to get in that was closely managed by the bouncers.
I could see that there were a few familiar faces among the bouncers.
They were the ones that had been working here since the Red Gang incident.
Though they were injured during that incident, we had compensated them generously and it didn't seem like they forgot about that since they were still working at this club.
However, it seemed that I had been away from the club too long that some of the newer bouncers didn't know who I was.
When I tried to cut the line and go in directly, the bouncer at the door stopped me.
"Name?"
That was what he said when he saw me approach.
I was surprised to be stopped like this since I had never been stopped from entering the club before. But seeing how busy it was, I guess that it was just a part of the new protocol.
"Lin Fan." I said in a calm voice.
The bouncer flipped through the list and then shook his head to say, "Not on the list. Get to the back of the line."
Behind me, I heard a few snickers coming from the people that were waiting in line.
I couldn't help slightly knitting my brows when I heard this.
I wasn't on the list?
I owned half this store and I wasn't even on the list for my own store…I really didn't know what to say.
While I was thinking about what to do, there was another bouncer that suddenly came over.
This was a face that I was familiar with since it was one of the bouncers that had been working here since the beginning.
He came over and said in a cold voice, "Let him in."
The bouncer at the door was surprised by this, but he still opened the door in the end.
The senior bouncer bowed his head and said, "Sorry for the trouble, he's new. He's only been working here for a week, so he doesn't know all of the rules yet."
I gave a simple nod and said, "Un, it's no problem."
I could see that there were people that were staring at us, so it was better for me to drop this matter than to hold it against them.
Not to mention, it was a simple mistake.
It wasn't as if he had offended me, so I wouldn't make a big deal out of this.
Sometimes, being a good boss meant forgiving these small mistakes since everyone could make them. That would inspire loyalty among your subordinates and make them respect you more.
Without another word, I went into the club.
After he went in, the junior bouncer waited for a bit before asking, "Senior, was that really alright? He wasn't on the list and everyone just saw him cut the line. Won't this hurt the club's reputation?"
The senior bouncer hit that junior bouncer on the head and said, "What do you know? He doesn't need to be on the list, he owns this club."
The junior bouncer revealed a confused look as he said, "Isn't the owner Miss Sasha?"
The senior bouncer shook his head and said with a sigh, "Don't you remember what Miss Sasha said? He's the other owner."
The junior bouncer suddenly revealed a look of understanding before revealing a look of panic.
He said in a stuttering voice, "He, he, was the other owner?"
The senior bouncer gave a simple nod.
The junior bouncer trembled when seeing this before asking, "Will, will he hold it against me?"
The junior bouncer had already heard about this other owner and he had heard about how Elementia was supporting this club because of this other owner. That was because this other owner was actually a member of Elementia.
Anyone that could join a large guild like Elementia definitely wasn't a normal person.
If this other owner held a grudge against him because of this…wouldn't his life be over?
The senior bouncer shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the owner isn't as petty as you think. He just said that it's not a problem, so you don't need to worry. I'd be more scared of how Miss Sasha will punish you when she finds out about this."
Though this junior bouncer was a man that was much larger than the average person, he couldn't help trembling when he heard this.
It was clear that he was afraid of this Miss Sasha.
He looked at the senior bouncer and asked, "Senior, what should I do?"
This time, the senior bouncer just shook his head and patted him on the shoulder before saying with a sigh, "Just accept the consequences."
The junior bouncer looked like he was about to cry when he heard this.
After entering the club, I couldn't help being surprised by how big it had become.
There had even been a dance floor added in the center that had many people on it right now.
It wasn't just a cabaret club anymore, it was a proper club now that people could enjoy drinking and dancing in. Though I could see that there was still the option to call for girls to drink with since that was the foundation that this club was based on.
With how big it had become and how many people were here, it was clear that business was good.
Though with the support of Elementia, it would be strange if business wasn't good.
I couldn't help wondering just how much money Sasha was earning with all of this.
There was an account that had been set up for me that Sasha would deposit my shares of the profits in each month, but I had never touched that account before.
I was earning good money from Elementia and there wasn't much that I was spending on in the first place since I still lived in the same crappy apartment, so I had never needed the money in the first place.
But now I couldn't help just how much money was in that account.
It seemed that breaking Sasha and making her my puppet really was a good decision back then.
Seeing how well she managed this business, it seemed that she really had a knack for this kind of thing.
I wondered what else I would be able to get her to do if I needed her to do other things.
Still, that wasn't the reason I had come here today.
For now, I would just do what I came to do and worry about that stuff later.
