Chapter 224: I don't like men

The voice not only contained a hint of sluggishness, but also of contempt.
”Xin... Xinyan?”
Xu Youcheng, lying on the ground, looked absentmindely at the woman not far away as he stammered with disbelief.
”Linhua Group will not offend the head of Future Technology just because of you. What do you think? Mr. Jiang Chen?”
With graceful steps, she walked beside Jiang Chen as she smiled at him.
When Xu Youcheng heard the words ”Future Technology” and ”Jiang Chen,” the color of his face immediately changed. He initially thought that the man dining with Xia Shiyu was just a small business owner with some money in his pockets, but he didn’t know it was the legendary Jiang Chen.
Now that he looked closer, that man did look familiar.
The original blanked expression turned completely into fear.
The Linhua Group? This fact caught Jiang Chen by surprise. Speaking of which, he did receive Linhua Group’s invitation to attend that Wanghai economic forum. However, Jiang Chen didn’t answer Wang Xinyan’s question and, instead, he responded with a question of his own:
”Although I don’t want to ridicule other people’s hobby, I really don’t understand. What’s so good about this despicable man who sold his girlfriend?”
”Even despicable people have their uses. For example, I could give him the status and power he had always dreamt of, just to see what kind of fool he will turn himself into.” Wang Xinyan squinted her eyes, her visage gruesome.
”… This is crazy.”
Looking sympathetically at Xu Youcheng on the ground, Jiang Chen stepped over him and headed towards Xia Shiyu.
The server and security personnel of Shimao began to surround the scene, but seeing that Jiang Chen’s identity wasn't so simple, no one dared to do anything to him, and they only helped the bruised Xu Youcheng up. They only controlled the situation while waiting for the police to arrive.
”Xin, Xinyan, I-”
”You can go fu*k off now, I am getting bored of your looks anyways,” Wang Xinyan yawned.
Xu Youcheng broke loose from the security, dropping in front of Wang Xinyan’s boots as he begged without dignity, ”I, I really do like you! Please, give me another chance!”
”Did you really think you could get me to date you?” Wang Xinyan scoffed, ”Sorry, I don’t like men.”
Xu Youcheng was utterly dumbfounded.
[Don’t like men? ]
[ Then what about the effort I spent these past few days? ]
As if he had lost all energy in his body, his bruised face twisted and Xu Youcheng looked as though he lost his soul, and both of his hands slumped on the ground.
Back then, after leaving Xia Shiyu, Xu Youcheng drove the car that was purchased with Xia Shiyu’s identity to run away with the person he cheated her for. But then, the story after wasn’t as smooth as he expected. When he lost his ”income,” he quickly used up all his money. Since he didn't have any ability and only depended on her, he couldn’t find even a proper job. After an argument, he and the girlfriend who he had just met for less a month broke up.
After a series of event, he became a server at a bar. Through one occasion, he was introduced to the escort industry; however, this profession was not a long-term solution. The rich ladies with too much money and nowhere to unleash their energy would not give him a promise. He tried to do ”one last gig” to find a permanent ATM, finally locking his sights on to the daughter of the president of Linhua Group—Wang Xinyan.
Fortunately, Wang Xinyan didn’t brush him like away like a fly but, instead, gave him the opportunity to flatter her.
However, he didn’t think that from the beginning to the very end, he was just a joke used for amusement, unable to touch her hand and just there to wipe her shoes…
Wang Xinyan’s contemptuous smile looked down at the wounded Xu Youcheng, and the smile soon turned into a delighted one.
....
[ This feeling is fantastic .]
”Sorry, the one time I invited you to dinner, the mood was ruined by a fly. I’ll make it up to you next time?” Jiang Chen sat in front of Xia Shiyu as he said apologetically.
Xia Shiyu’s face blushed, and she whispered, ”No, it’s my problem.”
Just then, the chubby boss with glasses walked over. Looking at the knife marks on the ground, along with the crowd, he had a troubled smile on his face.
”It is better to resolve things through peace, why use violence? Both look like people of importance, why fight?”
