Luis did not speak. Blanche had not actually drunk much, and judging by her demeanor, her alcohol tolerance was certainly not poor. Yet she seemed particularly nervous, talking so much.
A typical scheming bitch would absolutely be adept at handling men, seducing them gradually with a very methodical and strategic approach. But watching Blancheâs performance was truly hard to describe; there wasnât a hint of any discernible strategy to be found.
Right now, she seemed more like a bitter woman pouring out her grievances. As she spoke, she was almost on the verge of tears, showing not the slightest sign of trying to seduce a man.
"Sister Blanche, let me say one thing first. Firstly, you and I are not familiar with each other, and I donât know your family situation."
Luis shook his head and said, "Every family has its own hard to recite scripture. Even if I sympathize with you, itâs difficult for me to truly empathize. I am willing to listen, but I imagine a strong woman like you probably doesnât need this kind of pity."
These words were absolutely a blow to the soul. Blanche was practically stunned, staring blankly at Luis.
If everything she said was true, then she truly was a strong woman, and certainly not the type to wallow in self pity.
Her current dazed reaction proved she was indeed very flustered. Seducing him was completely a spur of the moment decision, which is why her seduction techniques seemed so unsophisticated.
"Is that so."
Blanche said with a somewhat self deprecating laugh, "I think I overestimated myself, thought I could handle everything very well. It seems now I was completely overthinking it."
Unconsciously, half a bottle of Chivas Regal had gone down. Her face now had a charming, drunken flush. Leaning against Luis, she seemed slightly dazed but was definitely in a sober state.
"Luis, how much do you think Iâm worth."
Blanche had just finished her question when Luis, taken aback, hadnât had time to answer before she continued.
"If you donât agree, Iâll keep it from Nancy. Iâm just a bit unsettled, wondering if you still find a woman my age attractive."
"I know that no matter what, Nancyâs figure and looks are first rate. Even if she doesnât know how to please a man, Iâm not confident I can compete with her for one."
Blanche sighed, "It feels more comfortable to speak frankly. Iâm simply at a point where I have no choice but to need money."
"How much do you need."
Luis said very directly, "You can tell me straight out. Your plan was to sell yourself, so why make me feel sympathetic towards you."
"A temporary plan, I suppose. Because after thinking it over, I couldnât find a better potential patron than you."
Blancheâs gaze was firm as she looked at Luis and said, "Or to put it bluntly, no one seems more like an easy target than you. I need ten thousand dollars right now."
"My pressure is too great right now, there are just too many places needing money. I bought an apartment, and itâs just been handed over. Forget renovating, I donât even have the money to pay the taxes and get the property deed."
"The monthly mortgage of over 200 dollars isnât much, but itâs still suffocating me..."
"Now, the moment I open my eyes, itâs all just various messy expenses. The renovation already has a design company, the second phase is finished, but my money just canât keep up."
"If I donât pay soon, the final finishing stage will simply have to stop."
Blanche spoke while irritably drinking her wine. After several glasses in a row, she realized something.
Luis had been silently listening to her, neither asking many questions nor getting handsy, just being a quiet listener, hearing these hysterical yet ultimately unrelated ramblings.
About half an hour passed, and the bottle of Chivas Regal was almost empty.
Almost every time she raised her glass in frustration, Luis would drink with her, then silently pour more wine, add ice, and continue listening to her talk.
"Iâm sorry, I donât think Iâve ever been so long winded before."
Blanche had a particularly good alcohol tolerance, far from drunk, but it was rare for her to speak about these things. Once she started, she couldnât quite stop.
"Venting occasionally is good too. Now that weâve gotten all this messy stuff off our chests, shouldnât we discuss some proper business."
"What proper business."
Luis lifted her chin, a lewd smile on his face, and said, "Sister Blanche, shouldnât you prove to me just how youâre worth ten thousand dollars."
"You, youâre really willing to pay ten thousand dollars."
Blanche was somewhat stunned, because she had said it almost casually, practically demanding an exorbitant price.
Those young, beautiful flight attendants wouldnât dare ask for so much money. She wasnât exactly old and faded, but after all, her child was already so grown up, she really had no confidence.
Luis nodded. Although he had more money than he knew what to do with now, he wasnât about to be an easy target. The main reason was the moment she asked for ten thousand dollars, a system notification suddenly rang in his mind.
"Ding... The âBaby faced, Big breasted Sister in lawâ questline, side quest (Big breasted Little Confidante) cancelled."
The moment it said cancelled, Luisâs mind went blank instantly; this side quest hadnât even been generated yet.
He had already flirted with Avery to the point where her heart was stirred. Just because the quest hadnât been issued yet, Luis had been holding back, resisting the idea of making a move.
He never expected the quest to be suddenly cancelled, especially right when he was most in need of system items and blind boxes.
But then, the system notification sounded again.
"Ding... Side quest upgraded. Main quest âThe Fall of the Mother Daughter Duoâ is generating."
Luisâs mind momentarily blurred. Could it really be such a coincidence? Blancheâs surname is also Xiao. Avery mentioned she never knew her biological father and had always used her motherâs surname.
Listening to that frantic phone call earlier, could that hysterical guy be the drug addict father Avery talked about.
"Ding... Side quest (The Fall of Mother and Daughter) Task 1, Oral Training of the Mother Daughter Duo."
"Quest content: Please separately complete the first oral climax experience for the mother daughter duo. Quest reward: 1 blind box."
The quest was issued instantly, arguably the first time it had been so straightforward. Presumably, the system considered the difficulty low, so the reward was also somewhat pitifully small.
"Is Sister Blanche surprised."
Luis became excited, stroking her face as he said, "Youâve already swallowed your pride and asked, so it definitely wasnât a spur of the moment decision, right. Then you should also discuss the cost effectiveness with me."
Blanche gritted her teeth and said, "I know ten thousand is an outrageous demand, but I can accompany you for a year. During this year, you can do whatever you want with me, and I wonât interfere with your life."
"If you want to find other women, I can introduce them to you too."
"Ten thousand for a year, less than a thousand per month. Iâll make you feel itâs worth the price."
By now, more people were coming into the bar. Even though their spot was relatively secluded, a few more tables of customers had appeared nearby, making it a bit noisy and clearly unsuitable for any further intimate activities.
Luis was already burning with desire from her teasing. After a momentâs thought, he impatiently took her hand and led her to the restroom.
The barâs restroom was very clean, without any unpleasant odor. He chose the stall at the very end, went in, and closed the door directly. Blancheâs face flushed, and she panted, "Isnât this inconvenient here? Letâs go to a hotel, okay."
The quest only required an oral climax. Combined with the fact that a feast, that busty stunning woman, was waiting for him at home, Blancheâs allure wasnât strong enough for Luis to change his plans.
Luis looked at her with a lecherous grin and said, "Sister Blanche, I used to call you Teacher Blanche. As a teacher, shouldnât you be a bit more capable than your student? At the very least, you should let me get a taste of what it means to get more than my moneyâs worth."
As he spoke, Luisâs hands pressed down on her shoulders. As a mature woman, even if she wasnât a slut, she would understand very well what the man meant.
There were still some water stains on the floor. Blanche glanced at them, put the toilet lid down, sat on it, and then began to undo Luisâs pants with both hands.
