Love Began with the First Meeting

A loud and intense sound of heavy metal music coming from the Exotic Bar could be heard across the street. After looking at its sign, Molly knew that it was the place she was looking for and entered it in haste.

Inside the smoke-filled bar, a lot of fashionably dressed men and women danced and moved to the thunderous music. Molly surveyed the crowd and looked around, searching for her father…

"Are you Molly?" a voice coming from behind her spoke. Looking like a gangster, a young man wearing strange clothes and chewing an areca nut, walked up to Molly haughtily and looked at her for a while. Then he spoke in contempt," Come with me!"

"Why do I have to come with you?" Molly asked suspiciously.

The young man sneered and immediately got impatient. He replied," If you don't care about your father's life, then you can leave right now."

After saying this, the young man snorted, turned around and walked towards the corridor on one side of the bar.

Molly, taken aback, curled her lip and held back her anger. Involuntarily, she followed the young man towards the corridor. Fear crept up on her as she passed through the dim corridor, afraid for herself.

"Ahhhhh…" A cry of pain reached Molly's ears as she went deeper through the corridor.

Upon hearing the miserable and loud scream, Molly was shocked and frightened. "Father!" she shouted desperately and ran quickly into the room as soon as the young man, who led her there, opened the door.

He placed his finger under her chin and raised her face towards him. While looking at her eyes gleaming with anger, he laughed grimly and said in a cold voice,"

Her body slightly trembled when she glanced at his father who was covered with cuts and bruises all over. She didn't know whether she was angry or sad at that moment. She turned to look at David and added," If you trust me, release my father. I will bring the
