After Zhou Yian left the box, he went straight to the foreman, explained his purpose, and hoped to resign.

"You have to tell me your resignation one month in advance. And although you just got here, your performance is good. You should have noticed that I have been scheduling you in the best boxes recently. Are you really not considering staying?"

"Thank you for your kindness, foreman. I know you have always been nice to me, but for personal reasons, I really don't want to work here anymore. I hope you can approve it."

After a little thought, the foreman agreed to Zhou Yian's resignation application and handed her a resignation application form.

"In that case, please fill out this resignation application first. I will submit it to the higher-ups tomorrow. Once they review it and approve it, you can resign."

"Okay, thank you, foreman." Zhou Yian was overjoyed. He took the resignation application form, filled it out and returned it to the foreman.

After handing in her resignation, she returned to the box anxiously. Seeing that Xu Zehao and that crazy guy were gone, she felt relieved. Only then did she start to feel scared and admire herself for having the courage to throw the wine directly on his face.

Zhou Yian prayed to God in his heart for protection, hoping that he would not encounter any weird people or things before leaving his job, and that he would be able to leave his job safely and smoothly and start a new life.

The next day, as soon as the work started, the foreman called a meeting of all the night shift waiters and took out a stack of documents and placed them on the table.

"These days, some people reported that drunk customers were causing trouble and beating up waiters. So the boss decided to buy more insurance for everyone so that everyone working here has more personal protection."

After that, he gave everyone an identical document and asked everyone to sign and confirm the purchase.

After receiving the documents, everyone gathered together to discuss and signed their names and put their fingerprints on them.

"Um, foreman, do I need to sign again? I have already submitted my resignation application and may not come to work in the future."

The foreman looked at Zhou Yian, his eyes flickered and he said, "Well, go for it. You haven't left yet. As long as you work here for one more day, you will be an employee of the club, and your interests will be guaranteed for the day. This is a matter of 100 benefits and no harm. Just sign it first."

When Zhou Yian heard what the foreman said, she bowed her head, signed the document and handed it in. She was in an unusually happy mood. Since she submitted her resignation application last night, she felt an unprecedented sense of relief in her heart, and she felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders.

From the time she left Xu's company to the time she started working at the club, she had experienced so much and met all kinds of people, which had made her physically and mentally exhausted. Chen Shuo's cordial invitation made her full of hope for life again. She wanted to turn the page on the past and start a new chapter.

Tonight's shift is in the VIP box again. Although I am in a good mood, I am also a little scared. This is a society where the strong prey on the weak. The richer some people are, the more evil they do. Every time I go to work, I worry that I will encounter a pervert again.

What you fear will come true. As soon as Zhou Yian entered the box, he saw that the person sitting in the crowd was the crazy guy from last night. He had fair skin, handsome features, and was thin but strong. His good looks added a lot of points to him, making him particularly conspicuous in the crowd.

"Isn't this the beautiful girl from last night? What a fate sent by heaven, that we meet again." The man looked harmless when he was serious.

But Zhou Yian knew very well that this person was not a good person. Thinking that he was about to resign, he would definitely not end well if he messed with him. It was better to have less trouble than more and offend fewer people, so he smiled and nodded in response to him.

"You don't seem to be interested in me. Doesn't my good-looking appearance attract your attention?" The man stared at her with malicious calculations in his eyes. He was absolutely confident in his appearance.

When the man said this, Zhou Yian thought of Xu Zehao, the man with a cold face. He once said that she appeared in front of him to attract his attention. Are these two people both stupid?

The man had a bohemian smile on his face. He stood up and took out a black gold-stamped business card from his pocket. He directly took Zhou Yian's hand and put the business card on her palm without letting her refuse. He tapped it lightly with his fingers and said softly, "I have something to do. I'm leaving first. This is my business card. I'm glad to meet you. Keep in touch when you have time."

After saying this, he made a phone call gesture with his hand and walked backwards out of the box while speaking. He curled his pretty lips slightly and smiled with a smug look on his face, but his eyes were full of scheming.

Zhou Yian looked down at the business card, Fu Shenyan, with a long string of mobile phone numbers underneath. It was simple and clear with just a few words, and there was no company title. This was the first time Zhou Yian had seen such a strange business card.

In the following days, Zhou Yian was assigned to the VIP box. Although the income was considerable, compared with other lower-class boxes, the people in the VIP box were either rich or noble, and he could not afford to offend them. If he was not careful, he might not even know how he offended them.

"Foreman, has my resignation application been approved? It's been several days."

The foreman didn't dare look Zhou Yian in the face. He asked with evasive eyes, "Resigning? What do you mean by resigning? Didn't you sign a new contract? You have to work for a full year before you can leave."

Zhou Yian was stunned. "What did you say? What contract extension? I didn't sign it."

The foreman rummaged through the drawer for a while, then handed Zhou Yian a document. Inside was a labor contract with her signature and bright red fingerprints written in black and white.

"Isn't this the insurance we bought that day?"

"That's not the case. Why is it a contract renewal?" Zhou Yian flipped through the document quickly, looking at the clauses in disbelief.

The foreman looked at her in silence, looking guilty.

Zhou Yian flipped through the documents numbly, her brain controlled by emotions. The more she expected, the more helpless she felt now. She looked at the huge amount of liquidated damages and felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, her whole body cold to her feet.

"It's not like that, it's not like that. I looked at it and it's clearly an insurance policy, not a contract." She muttered to herself.

The foreman had never seen Zhou Yian like this. She seemed as if her soul had been taken away in an instant. She was so energetic at the beginning, but suddenly became as weak as a dead tree.

"Foreman, you are mistaken, right?" She raised her head suddenly, looking at the foreman with almost despair in her eyes. She was shrouded in a deep sense of brokenness, which made people feel heartbroken.

"This... I don't know what's going on, but it's written in black and white on this paper, it is indeed your signature and fingerprint." The foreman lowered his head in shame and guilt, not daring to look Zhou Yian in the eye.

"Where is Manager Gao? I'll go find Manager Gao." Zhou Yian suddenly remembered the female manager who had given him kind advice when she recruited him.

Before the foreman could answer, Zhou Yian rushed out to find Gao Jing.

"Manager Gao, what's the matter with this contract?" As soon as Zhou Yian entered the office, he put the document on the table for Gao Jing to see.

Gao Jing looked at Zhou Yian, pursed her lips and said: "This is what the higher-ups meant."

"Above? Who? Xu Zehao?" Zhou Yian subconsciously rejected him.

Gao Jing was silent and looked at Zhou Yian with sympathy. The girl in front of her was so beautiful. Just as she had said at that time, it was very dangerous for a woman to be too beautiful but unable to protect herself. What's more, in a nightclub where jackals and tigers were rampant, a young and beautiful girl like her could easily be hunted as prey.

"Can you please tell me who is up there?" Zhou Yian begged bitterly, feeling as if his heart was being torn apart by a knife.

"I'm sorry, I... I can't comment. Although I sympathize with you, there's nothing I can do."

"Powerless? How can I be powerless? You are the manager, how can you do this? This is not signed by me." Zhou Yian questioned Gao Jing hysterically with tears in her voice. All her hopes and expectations were shattered by reality at this moment.

She collapsed to the ground, her eyes gradually turned red, tears could not stop flowing, she bit her lips and cried silently. Gao Jing looked at the girl in front of her who was a dozen years younger than her, her heart ached and she couldn't help but go forward and hug her in her arms.

She had no choice. This was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. They were at the bottom of the food chain and were slaughtered at will by those at the top. They were in pain but unable to save themselves. The power disparity was too great and it was beyond her control. She felt sorry for them but could not lend a helping hand and could only watch everything happen.
