The Young Master's Escaping Bride Who Lost Memories

Chapter 174: Chapter 176 [176] Trapped by Nangong Yaoling’s Scheme 1

”Crown Prince, the accounts have been compiled and are ready for your review.” The man said, handing a document to Nangong Yaoling.

Nangong Yaoling opened it and glanced through.

Then he stepped forward and grabbed Xia Xiaonuan’s hand.

He lowered his head and looked at Xia Xiaonuan’s face, which showed a mix of surprise and reluctance.

He couldn’t help but smile.

Looking at several high-ranking officials, he said, ”Send the accounts to the restaurant later.”

The high-ranking officials were momentarily stunned but promptly responded, ”Yes, Crown Prince!”

After speaking, Nangong Yaoling pulled Xia Xiaonuan by the hand and entered the elevator.

A manager-like person saw the Crown Prince going upstairs and quickly instructed the people beside him, ”Go to the restaurant and get ready to serve.”

”Yes.”

The elevator stopped on the twenty-seventh floor.

After hearing they were going to a restaurant, Xia Xiaonuan’s mood brightened a bit.

After all, to her, food was the most important thing.

She had been busy all afternoon and was already starving.

Fortunately, Nangong Yaoling still had a sense of humanity.

When the elevator opened, right in front was the seaside restaurant.

Opposite the restaurant was a wall entirely made of floor-to-ceiling windows.

The restaurant lighting was not overly bright.

So, as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they could see the city nightscape outside.

Even the stars in the sky.

The feeling was almost like standing on a rooftop.

Xia Xiaonuan exclaimed, and then she saw over a dozen women standing not far away in two rows, wearing various strange outfits—some in fishnet tights, some wrapped in just a piece of cloth, some in maid costumes, and some with chains around their necks.

But one thing was clear: all these women were so beautiful they could rival TV stars.

”Good evening, Crown Prince! Welcome to dine with us! We wish you a pleasant meal!” The women said in unison.

Xia Xiaonuan’s face immediately darkened.

Nangong Yaoling waved his hand at them, ”You may leave now!”

The women quietly glanced at each other, visibly disappointed.

Originally, many of them hoped to get a chance to meet the Crown Prince, and if lucky, be chosen and perhaps gain his favor.

That way, they wouldn’t have to please other patrons every day; they would only need to please Nangong Yaoling.

However, Nangong Yaoling’s word was always absolute.

”Yes, Crown Prince!” The beautiful women all left, leaving behind a few uniformed staff members.

As they passed by, Xia Xiaonuan couldn’t help but grumble inwardly, wondering which face among them was their own. It’s quite possible that they all came from the same beauty clinic!

Seeming to sense her thoughts, Nangong Yaoling spoke:

”The women who can enter here at least have a bachelor’s degree, several are even pursuing doctorates, have no family medical history, and no history of cosmetic surgery. These women are selected from nationwide auditions and undergo strict training before they can start working.”

He said this indifferently.

Xia Xiaonuan was shocked to hear this.

She couldn’t understand why, with such good conditions, these women would willingly work here?

Nangong Yaoling then answered her unasked question.

”The monthly salary here is at least ten times that of a white-collar worker.”

Xia Xiaonuan sighed.

Indeed, this was a realistic and cruel society.

”And not all women can enter here just because they want to.”

Nangong Yaoling and Xia Xiaonuan were led by staff to a window seat in the middle.

Xia Xiaonuan noticed that while other floors were quite crowded, this one was particularly empty.
