Chapter 43 - 42 Plan to Outsmart Duan Kun



Chapter 43 - 42 Plan to Outsmart Duan Kun

This hotpot meal was the most satisfying Gu Heng had ever eaten...

Out of the 3 kilograms of mutton, half of it went right into Gu Heng’s stomach, leaving Lin Ran and Fang Xun to split the rest, with only a few slices remaining scattered on the plate...

Both collapsed onto their seats without any image, clutching their stomachs, while only Fang Xun, with a gentle smile, cleaned up the messy table...

The trio resembled the combination of a rich young master and young mistress, plus a maid from the inner chambers...

The lights of the pavilion in the lake’s center weren’t bright, but it was precisely this dimness that added a touch of charm to the little space. Drenched in sweat from eating, Lin Ran had already shed her bathrobe, revealing the nightgown beneath...

Although her nightgown was rather conservative, a nightgown was still a nightgown...

It inadvertently revealed a bit of allure, the occasional flash of white in Gu Heng’s eyes made him, who was already energetic from the meal, become somewhat restless...

The ancients have said, when sated and warm, one thinks of lust...

Under such natural human feelings, it was normal for Gu Heng to have indecent thoughts...

However, these indecent thoughts weren’t directed towards Lin Ran but towards the silently cleaning Fang Xun...

His thoughts were simple.

His only advantage now was his wealth.

But clearly, Lin Ran wasn’t lacking in money; using money to breach her bottom line was plain nonsense unless Gu Heng was willing to throw in all ten million from his bank account, which might somewhat be possible.

But spending ten million to sleep with a woman?

Gu Heng would have to be out of his mind to make such an irrational move.

Not even if it was gilded with gold, let alone diamonds, would it be worth it.

But Fang Xun was different, she needed money...

Especially after the day’s interactions, he had roughly understood what kind of woman Fang Xun was...

First and foremost, she was definitely greedy.

She could be happy for a while just from earning an extra 280 yuan from him.

Later, under the pretense of therapy, he planned to tentatively raise an offer to see if something delightful could happen...

If ten thousand didn’t work, then twenty thousand; if twenty thousand didn’t work, then fifty thousand; after all, money could definitely break her bottom line.

If she really was a woman with principles and integrity, then he would accept it.

The worst was to search on Dianping for a high-end bathhouse or massage parlor, those technicians wouldn’t all have the same principles and integrity, right?

Five years!

A whole five years!

He hadn’t been close to a girl for five years, who could know what he’d been through?

After a brief reflection, she came back and said to Gu Heng and another person, "Since neither of you are busy, why don’t we three go to a bar? I searched online; Wuzhen has a very famous folk bar, and many folk singers have visited it."

Gu Heng: "???"

Is this woman really not going away?

Feeling bad herself, she wants to ruin my good time, huh?

"No."

Gu Heng’s answer was extremely firm.

"Come on, you heard that I’m leaving tomorrow. Don’t you feel a bit reluctant to part with your travel companion?"

Looking at her somewhat coquettish expression and contrived tone, Gu Heng couldn’t help sizing her up: "I mean, don’t you really need to see a psychologist? Isn’t this a bit too split?

"Could it be that there’s still a sister living inside you?"

If it really were so...

It might actually be quite thrilling...

After straightening her messed hair, Lin Ran casually responded, "You’re wrong again. Work is work; life is life. I’ve always been this way in my life.

One has to be stern at work; otherwise, how can one command respect as a leader?"

Gu Heng couldn’t care less about her justification; he wouldn’t accompany her to any damned folk bar tonight.

He had just come back from showing off at a club two days ago, momentarily lacking any desire to show off again; all he wanted now was a clash.

Seeing Gu Heng’s staunch refusal, Lin Ran narrowed her eyes, seemingly plotting something devious, then began typing on her phone.

Once she finished, Gu Heng’s phone, lying on the table, lit up simultaneously.

Lin Ran gestured with her chin, and Gu Heng, puzzled, picked up his phone, only to see the text Lin Ran had sent...

"Are you trying to get rid of me so you can do something with Fang Xun?"

Seeing this text, Gu Heng couldn’t help but look up and lock eyes with her...

Was he really that obvious?

Or was she too smart, figuring out his intentions with just a glance?

Seeing Gu Heng say nothing, Lin Ran took it as his tacit agreement, patting his shoulder like an elder, "It’s okay, we’re all adults here; I understand.

"Accompany me to the folk bar for a check-in. It’ll just take two hours at most and then we’ll be back, without hindering your important matter. How about that?"

After speaking, she gave him a sly smile...

Looking at Fang Xun, still clueless beside them, Gu Heng reluctantly nodded...

However, he swore that until he grew up more, he would never deal again with smart women who could discern your little schemes from the details...

Otherwise, who knows what kind of trick would be played on him...
