Zhou Wang, sitting back on the sofa, lit a cigarette with an eight-dollar tal lighter and silently watched Xu Wenqian, who was still dazed on the floor.
It felt more like a silent film, and he was the only audience.
He was witnessing a girl’s silent breakdown.
After Zhou Wang straightforwardly shattered her last strand of hope, Xu Wenqian lost all signs of movent.
...
She didn’t cry or make a fuss, just sat there chanically like a puppet.
Actually, Zhou Wang didn’t fully know the story between her and her boyfriend, but he could infer a lot from Xu Wenqian’s few words.
Apparently, Xu Wenqian didn’t know her boyfriend’s real inco, and most of the money he hid went into the pockets of club hostesses.
What puzzled Zhou Wang was how those hostesses couldn’t possibly compare to Xu Wenqian in looks?
The girl arranged by Brother B for him, Xiao He, should have been ace-level at their store, but her looks were only on par with Sun Yi, a rather ordinary beauty.
From her boyfriend’s spending, his trips to the club could only be described as frequent—
Xu Wenqian and Cheng Zhe were about to get married, so it wasn’t like Xu Wenqian was unwilling to do such things, right?
With Zhou Wang’s current life experience, it was still quite difficult to fully understand the causes and effects.
He didn’t know how long it took before Xu Wenqian finally wobbly stood up.
“Are you okay?”
Seeing her finally regain so awareness of the outside world, Zhou Wang asked.
“I’m fine, Mr. Zhou, thank you.”
Xu Wenqian appeared very calm, even giving Zhou Wang a smile, “If you don’t have anything else to instruct, I’ll head back first.”
“Shall I take you?”
“Really, there’s no need, thank you.”
Xu Wenqian bowed to Zhou Wang, picked up her Aji Beans commuter bag, and walked out the door.
Zhou Wang watched her disappear into the elevator. Xu Wenqian appeared normal throughout, even waving him goodbye at the end.
The only thing, though, was that there was no light in her eyes.
Since Xu Wenqian insisted, Zhou Wang did not press to accompany her, understanding she might need so space alone.
However, after thinking about it, Zhou Wang still sent a ssage to her close friend Sun Yi, as a show of utmost consideration.
Ah, the tribulations of mortals…
Ding!
A sudden notification tone interrupted Zhou Wang’s contemplation.
[Business registration information has been successfully changed, Host has obtained 10% stock of Wuyou dia]
[Please visit Wuyou dia headquarters in Hang City within 30 days to sign relevant docunts and formally perform director duties. A “Joining Gift Package” will be issued at that ti]
Hmm?
Zhou Wang quickly checked and discovered that the progress of the “Stock Exchange Certificate” interaction had unknowingly hit 100%.
He also checked on his phone, and sure enough, his na had already appeared on the “Wuyou dia” shareholder list on the webpage.
Does this an I’m like a half president now?
This feeling was quite amazing, after all, humans are social animals. Who doesn’t want fa and fortune…
This new identity added another layer of protection for Zhou Wang, who already had considerable assets.
It was just that going to Hang City was a bit of a hassle, but it was necessary. As a new shareholder, he couldn’t not show up, right?
Plus, there’s the “Joining Gift Package” as a reward, definitely not to be missed.
Fortunately, the system provided plenty of ti, so there was no rush.
Dingdong!
WeChat rang. Zhou Wang looked at it—it was a ssage from the just-awakened Su Yajing, asking if she should wait for Zhou Wang for lunch.
“Wait for .”
Zhou Wang only then realized it was already 11:00 AM. He replied to Su Yajing, then went downstairs, left Cui Lake Yipin, and drove the Ferrari to the hotel.
However, on the way, Zhou Wang suddenly thought of sothing amusing.
The most intoxicated Su Yajing was already up, Yu Duo and Cui Min’er should be awake too, right?
Just not sure if they still rembered last night’s events.
…
Wanda Hotel, Presidential Suite.
Zhou Wang wasn’t wrong. Su Yajing was not the first to wake up—
On the soft hotel bed, Yu Duo groggily opened her eyes, subconsciously turned over, hugged the pillow next to her, and closed her eyes again.
“Zhou Wang, Zhou Wang, you bad guy…”
Yu Duo mumbled, then her body suddenly stiffened, and her eyes snapped open, her face full of confusion.
“Huh, why am I saying Zhou Wang’s na?”
Still a bit groggy with a headache, images started to surface vaguely.
Then Yu Duo rembered… It was just a dream!
Oh my gosh, I actually did those embarrassing things with Zhou Wang in my dream!
Yu Duo blushed at first, but then her dark eyes twirled and she beca a bit self-satisfied.
After all, it was just a dream. Who could do anything to , although the feeling was terrifyingly real…
Thinking like this, Yu Duo’s gaze beca dreamy, recalling more exciting details, and she unconsciously touched her lips, savoring that imagined first kiss.
Ow, a bit sore!
Yu Duo frowned, feeling like her lips were swollen.
“Yu Duo, ti to get up!”
At this mont, Shen Yutong’s voice ca from outside the door.
“Oh!”
Yu Duo responded, rolled out of bed, and walked to the bathroom. When she lifted her head in front of the mirror, she was stunned.
What are these marks on my neck…
Yu Duo’s skin was very white and delicate, making the irregular red marks particularly glaring, like roses blooming in the snow.
Yu Duo finally began to realize a scary fact.
“Ah!”
A mont later, Yu Duo let out a scream.
In the hallway, Shen Yutong, who was about to knock on Cui Min’er’s door, was startled. She instinctively headed toward Yu Duo’s room, but before she got there, a scream also ca from the room behind her.
Even shriller than Yu Duo’s—
While Shen Yutong was at a loss, the room door swung open with a “bang,” and Cui Min’er rushed out in disheveled pajamas.
Her expression was complicated, embarrassnt mixed with panic. Upon seeing Shen Yutong, Cui Min’er quickly lowered her head and hurried past her.
“Min’er, where are you going?”
Watching Cui Min’er run to the living room, not even caring that she was right next to her, hastily pulling off her pajamas and putting on the clean clothes just delivered, Shen Yutong quickly asked.
“I… I’m going back first. My phone is out of battery.”
After answering, Cui Min’er dressed hastily and rushed out.
Shen Yutong opened her mouth, her line “There’s a charger in the room” unspoken as Cui Min’er was already out the door.
Confusion flashed in Shen Yutong’s eyes. When Cui Min’er was changing clothes earlier, she seed to notice so strange bruises on Cui Min’er’s swinging chest…
Uh, it must have been an illusion, right?
