I can fulfill any wish for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding ling ling\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mingfei woke from his dream, his head foggy; it took him dozens of seconds to remember who he was, where he was, and what he was supposed to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lu Mingze…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So cute…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mingfei jolted upright—his dreams had been getting stranger lately. Sure, he was glad he didn’t have to fight anymore, but what the hell was all this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come to think of it, last time he dreamed a white dragon turned into a little girl with white hair and golden eyes, fighting Lu Mingze for the brother…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did my brain get corrupted by anime?” Lu Mingfei muttered to himself. “I haven’t even watched much lately—just went to Akihabara that one day…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was 6 p.m. now; Lu Mingfei planned to freshen up before starting his shift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under someone’s coercion, he’d reluctantly ended up at Koutengan Nightclub as a janitorial male host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caesar was enjoying himself—he found this job of earning money through his looks intriguing; the ultimate rich second-generation seemed to have taken a wrong turn in life…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no choice—the Snake-Dragon Clan had framed them with crimes so heinous even gods and mortals would rage; now they were fugitives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from this Koutengan Nightclub, there really wasn’t anywhere better to go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mopping floors, wiping tables, closing ventilation windows and turning on the central air conditioning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was plenty to do—he was, after all, an “intern male host.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That suited him just fine: comforting the lonely hearts of those ladies and drawing out their golden bills? Leave that to Caesar and Chu Zihang. Just try not to draw attention…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only real gain? His terrible Japanese had improved significantly through interactions with guests and coworkers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At 9 p.m., around 8, urban ladies finishing their shifts began arriving at this city that never slept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mingfei was guiding a few guests to a booth, holding a notepad and menu, ready to record their requests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sakura, the boss wants you. I’ll take over here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, okay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mingfei didn’t know what the burly bald man, the intimidating-looking but actually decent Satou Whale, wanted with him—wasn’t the evaluation already done?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyway, it was all Lu Mingze’s business; no matter what they said, he’d be stuck here. But he simply couldn’t accept that this man thought his flower art looked like a poppy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tonight, two VIP guests have requested your company. You must, must, serve them well!” Satou Whale’s loud voice dropped to a whisper: “And you must protect yourself, Sakura!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a navy velvet sofa, Satou Whale sat with arms crossed, expression grim. He shouldn’t have said that last line—it would offend the two noble ladies—but he simply couldn’t bear to see Sakura suffer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though those two, in both looks and status… for most men, this was a scene straight out of a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this wasn’t in the plot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mingfei stared blankly at the giant, bear-like bald man. He seriously doubted someone was playing a trick on him—after all, those guys had arrived in this world too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Zhongli, Lu Mingfei had no low expectations for his online friends in this world—especially Su Lin; that man had no bottom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Satou Whale stood up, opened a hidden door, and gestured for Lu Mingfei to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That must be Lu Mingze,” Lu Mingfei sighed. Having read the plot thoroughly, he knew the real boss’s office lay beyond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the aquarium, an elegant silver dragonfish glided slowly; other ornamental fish drifted upward lazily with tiny bubbles from the seaweed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aquarium wall in the Koutengan Nightclub boss’s office was actually a one-way viewing mechanism—its backside used one-way glass, allowing those in the secret room to see clearly into the main hall, while those in the hall couldn’t see the luxurious hidden chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The secret room was lavishly decorated: crystal chandeliers gleamed against marble floors; walls were lined with portraits of legendary male hosts from decades past, testifying to Koutengan’s glorious history. The sofa and desk were antiques; an old vinyl player spun Puccini’s “Madama Butterfly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man known as Satou Whale stopped and stood respectfully at the junction between the secret room and the corridor, sidestepping to give Lu Mingfei ample space to pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes held sorrow—he had to sacrifice Sakura tonight to two “Empresses” to keep this place running.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mingfei gave Satou Whale a strange look, then, expression unchanged, flicked his nonexistent long robe sleeve and walked in calmly—he was a cultivator, what was there to fear?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the leather sofa sat the two true bosses, their presence dazzling as they met Lu Mingfei’s gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the left was a forest-style girl with neat, flowing hair; on the right, a seductively ancient beauty with a high black coiffure, red silk ribbons entwined in her hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both wore black leather jackets and skirts, black stockings, and knee-high black patent leather boots with silver metal heels sharp as murder weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They sat side by side on the sofa, one at the far right, the other at the far left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mingfei froze—weren’t these the nanny duo Lu Mingze had assigned him? The one with the long legs was clearly Sake no Mai; the forest-style girl must be Su Enxi, a wealthy woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sakura, come sit here,” Sake no Mai adjusted her skirt and patted the spot beside her. “Satou Whale, you may leave.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Satou Whale bowed and withdrew, glancing back at Lu Mingfei with pity, his eyes filled with deep regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sit over here!” Su Enxi shifted her shoulders and patted the seat to her left. “This place was bought with my money—in other words, I’m your boss. Come here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You give off the vibe of a female thug trying to bully innocent men with power,” Sake no Mai shook her head. “Changing clothes won’t change your aura—aura isn’t that easy to alter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You witch, shut up!” Su Enxi slapped the empty seat beside her, her voice excited. “Sakura, come over so I can take a good look at you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Lu Mingfei standing frozen like a statue, his reflection in the aquarium behind him mirrored her dazed expression—Su Enxi’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she pulled herself together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cough, cough. Come over. Let’s talk about work today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did watching a romance drama make you think you’re the heroine?” Sake no Mai teased. “Being single too long really does warp your will. You’re practically undressing yourself. Look at me—I feel nothing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe, can you just get out of here and stop being a third wheel?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the two women trade barbs, Lu Mingfei was bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell just happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1185,"2026-06-20T04:17:29.700Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","6a66ce9e633b09e0b3340f16a4ced461dd3b5fa645b52a6dfdae5df556acf6e4","i-the-system-protagonist-joined-a-cross-dimensio-chapter-103","i-the-system-protagonist-joined-a-cross-dimensio-chapter-101",720,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-the-system-protagonist-joined-a-cross-dimensio-cover.jpg"]
