Volume 7: Mr. Love, Elite Lawyer, and Two Conjectures about Marriage Chapter 532 Yuan Xudong meets young lawyer Lan Lan
As night fell, after dealing with Zhao Songwen, Yuan Xudong went to the nearby Shangri-La Hotel, where Chen Tonggang was still waiting for him.
After entering the hotel, Yuan Xudong went directly to the executive bar on the top floor and found a seat by the window. While drinking, he sent a location to Chen Tonggang, who was waiting there and didn't know where he was.
Putting the locked screen of his phone on the table, he picked up the glass in front of him and took a sip of whiskey, his eyes looking at the night view of the city outside the window.
High-rise buildings, bright lights and wine, in fact, this world has always been very exciting. If you have money, especially in the entertainment venues of the first-tier cities where there is a lot of extravagance and decadence, there are many young and beautiful women, models, female college students, female white-collar workers, or some girls who specialize in this kind of special services. In front of the poor, they are glamorous, but in front of the rich, they often lower themselves.
To put it simply, in front of poor people, they will stand proudly with their necks held high, but in front of rich people, they will become docile and show the soft side of girls.
So, rich people are surrounded by gentle and kind girls, while the poor people want to marry more realistic girls. Oh, wrong, it should not be girls, but women. There is a difference between the two. For example, it is like the difference between a new house and a second-hand house, a new car and a second-hand car. The only difference is that the second-hand ones are more expensive. This makes sense, because if you want to turn a bus into an exclusive private car, it belongs to a seller's market, so it is a little more expensive. Luxury goods are complacent about this and mock those who cannot afford it as trash. But is this really the case?
The fact is just the opposite, because no matter how expensive a luxury item is, it is just a commodity. As long as it is a commodity, it has a price. Only items that are not for sale are priceless. When most women objectify their love into specific money, houses, cars, etc., and when most men believe that only rich people can have love, and that they can only get married if they buy a house and a car and can afford a dowry, then is this love, or a business deal based on weight?
So everyone is working hard to make money, because women like money. As long as they have money, they can surpass others. Of course, this is just the world of ordinary people. Above money, there is a higher level of power, but that is not the business of ordinary people.
In fact, money is a man's advantage. If women don't like money, what should those ugly men, those who have no education, those who have a poor family background, etc. do?
If you like beautiful women, then work hard to make money. As long as you can make enough money, you can be close to people with billions. Of course, you still have to be low-key. If you are too ostentatious, then retire early. After all, no matter how rich you are, can you compare with Boss Ma?
As Yuan Xudong was tasting whiskey and looking at the night view of the city outside the window, Luo Yue, who was on duty at the executive bar, came over and said with a smile:
"Sir, could you please buy me a drink?"
"Yuer?"
Looking at Luo Yue, who was wearing a black uniform and a Hermès scarf, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but wonder:
"Aren't you taking a day off today?"
"Yes, I'm covering for my colleague!"
Looking at Yuan Xudong who looked surprised, Luo Yue smiled sweetly and said:
"Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
“Surprise, surprise!”
Looking at the pretty Luo Yue, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Come sit down and have a drink with me. Do you like whiskey or something else?"
"What do you want to drink?"
Rolling her eyes at Yuan Xudong, Luo Yue said angrily:
"I still have to be on duty, so I can't drink. You should drink less too. Oh, by the way, you came here to drink alone?"
"What else?"
"No one else?"
"for example?"
Looking at Yuan Xudong who remained calm, Luo Yue continued:
"Where's Qiao Yilin? Didn't you bring her out to play for a while?"
"Can we still chat?"
When he heard Luo Yue mention Qiao Yilin, Yuan Xudong immediately said in a shameless manner:
"Do you believe that I will lose all your mother's pension money?"
"You rascal, I don't care about you, go to hell! "
Seeing that Yuan Xudong always used this matter to threaten her, Luo Yue couldn't help but roll her eyes and said angrily. Seeing her like this, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but lower his voice and chuckled:
"Hey, believe it or not, I'm going to complain about you, saying that you insulted the guests for no reason. I'm a super VIP guest of your hotel!"
"You dare?"
Seeing that Yuan Xudong dared to threaten her with a complaint, Luo Yue immediately lowered her voice and threatened him in return:
"Then I can call the police and accuse you of blackmail and... and..."
"Also...Also...Also what?"
"you……"
Seeing Yuan Xudong deliberately stuttering to make fun of her, Luo Yue couldn't help but get angry and said:
"You've bullied me, do you believe I'll go to the police station and arrest you?"
"I'm sorry, I really don't believe it!"
"You are a jerk..."
Without waiting for Luo Yue to finish her curse, Yuan Xudong reached out and pulled her into his arms and said gently:
"Okay, all the mistakes are my fault. I will definitely change in the future, okay?"
"What are you doing?"
Being suddenly pulled into Yuan Xudong's arms, Luo Yue sat on his lap, holding his chest and shoulders with both hands and said shyly:
"There are a lot of customers watching here, please let me go!"
"I won't let go. They can watch if they want. Is it not okay for me to hug my girlfriend?"
He glanced at the guests and bartenders around him. Some of them didn't care, while others looked at him and Luo Yue and whispered. Yuan Xudong lowered his head and looked at the blushing Luo Yue. He pressed her on his thigh to prevent her from moving and said:
"Are you embarrassed already? Are you going to go to the police station and call the police to arrest me?"
"Just go!"
"Just go?"
Looking at Luo Yue, who was pouting slightly, with her cheeks puffed up, and looking more like a spoiled child than angry, Yuan Xudong slowly put his lips towards hers and smiled:
"Then there's nothing I can do. You forced me to do this!"
"What do you want to do?"
Seeing Yuan Xudong slowly moving his lips towards hers, Luo Yue could even feel his hot breath. She couldn't help but feel a little flustered. She began to gently push Yuan Xudong's chest and turned her head away, trying to avoid his kiss.
She tilted her head slightly and saw that the young girls under her command were hiding behind the bar not far away, wanting to laugh at her. She couldn't help but feel even more shy, and pushed with a little more force, but unfortunately it was only a little more force and it had no effect at all. Rather than saying it was a resistance, it was more like a girl's modesty. If she didn't resist at all, wouldn't it be very embarrassing?
Looking at Luo Yue who was struggling and resisting gently, Yuan Xudong did not really kiss her cherry lips. After all, there were so many people watching them next to them. His lips almost brushed against Luo Yue's delicate lips, and finally he simply kissed her smooth forehead.
After the kiss, Yuan Xudong let go of Luo Yue, whose eyes were wide open. With a sly smile on his face, he whispered in a low voice in her ear:
"I'll go to your place to rest tonight. I'll wait for you to get off work!"
"Rogue~~"
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Luo Yue got up from his arms and trotted to the bar. Yuan Xudong watched her leaving until she was surrounded by a group of girls. Although he could not hear what they said, seeing their happy smiles and Luo Yue's angry look, Yuan Xudong could almost guess what they were talking about. Just like men like to discuss women, women also like to discuss men. Yuan Xudong was not bragging, but an excellent bachelor like him, who was rich, handsome, shameless, and had no moral integrity, could tell lies at will. What kind of woman could he not pursue?
Don't be fooled by the silly look of those girls who are all surrounding Luo Yue, the administrative manager, with envy and blessings on their faces. Yuan Xudong dares to guarantee that as long as he shows a little favor to one of the girls, the other party will definitely take the bait. This is the confidence of a rich man. Of course, in the eyes of poor losers, it is just pretentious, just like a rich second generation surnamed Wang. The other party is pretentious, right? But reality is reality. There is no protagonist to pretend to be bigger than slapping the face of the rich second generation!
In fact, let alone more emotional women, even men who are known for their rationality might as well think about it from another perspective. If a super rich man wants to pursue a beautiful woman from an ordinary family, in the morning, a luxury car drives to the downstairs of her house, and the exclusive driver picks her up politely. If conditions permit, he can also arrange a few good cars to follow the luxury car, all of which are filled with bodyguards. Guns are banned in China, but if they are abroad, these bodyguards are all in black suits and sunglasses, and all the cars are bulletproof black luxury cars. These ostentations are enough to give the girl and her family enough face in front of the neighbors. After all, who doesn't have shame in this world?
After picking up the girl, the convoy went directly to the airport. When they arrived at the airport, a private plane was parked there. The girl was taken on the plane, along with some bodyguards and service personnel. If the private plane was big enough, it could be transformed into a palace with all kinds of entertainment facilities. Anyway, the more luxurious it was, the more luxurious it would be. The girl was taken across half the globe. Whether something exciting could happen on the plane depended on whether the billionaire was impatient. Otherwise, he could continue to wait and take the girl to travel to foreign countries, go shopping, etc. There is no woman who doesn't like expensive luxury goods, clothes, jewelry, bags, etc. In short, with such a series of operations, most women can be easily won down. The only drawback is that it costs a bit of money.
Of course, in fact, private jets, luxury cars, bodyguards and so on can all be rented, especially very small private jets, which even ordinary people can afford to rent. This gives certain scammers an opportunity. Some people look like rich second-generations, but they may be scammers. All their belongings are rented. They specialize in preying on young girls who are eager to marry into wealthy families and cheat them of their money and sex. There are all kinds of people these days. Men cheating on women and women cheating on men are just basic operations. Men cheating on men and women cheating on women are the real masters!
Just then, a young man wearing sunglasses, a mask and a baseball cap sneaked into the bar. He glanced around and soon saw Yuan Xudong sitting by the window drinking. The guests in the bar looked at the sneaky man strangely, and when they saw everyone was looking at him, the strange man became more cautious. He tiptoed towards Yuan Xudong. In the eyes of others, this sneaky man might be sick, so they subconsciously avoided him. What if he was a lunatic? That would be too scary!
This sneaky man was none other than Chen Tonggang who came to keep the appointment. He waited for a long time downstairs in the hotel, but Yuan Xudong was sitting here leisurely drinking and enjoying the night view of the city outside the window. He sat down opposite Yuan Xudong and said angrily:
"I waited downstairs for so long. I called you but you didn't answer. I sent you a WeChat message but you didn't reply. Are you kidding me?"
"So do you want to hear yes or no?"
Looking at Chen Tonggang who had wrapped himself up, Yuan Xudong smiled faintly. Seeing him like this, Chen Tonggang was almost angry to death, but he suppressed his anger and said aggrievedly:
"Do all you rich people have no sense of time?"
"It's wrong for you to say that!"
"What's wrong?"
"First, you can think that I have no sense of time, but are you saying that all you rich people have no sense of time?"
Yuan Xudong looked at Chen Tonggang and smiled:
"Why do I feel sour when I hear your words? Do you have a problem with me, or do you have a problem with all rich people?"
"I didn't..."
"Please listen to me first before you speak. Don't you know that interrupting others is very rude?"
"and you……"
"You mean to say that I interrupted you, too?"
Looking at Chen Tonggang who nodded hurriedly, Yuan Xudong suppressed his smile and said seriously:
"Nonsense, should I be polite to someone who doesn't have manners ? How can I repay kindness by repaying evil with kindness?"
"I don't……"
"Shut up, listen to me first, and don't talk anymore!"
Looking at the frustrated Chen Tonggang, Yuan Xudong looked him up and down and said:
"Why are you wrapping yourself up so tightly? Have you joined the Muslim community, or are you simply too embarrassed to face people?"
Hearing Yuan Xudong asking him a question, Chen Tong held it in for a while before speaking:
"Can I speak now?"
"Can you please not speak?"
After taking a look at Chen Tonggang, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement:
"Can you speak with your lungs?"
"You are the one who speaks with your lungs, and what you say is all nonsense!"
Chen Tong just couldn't help rolling his eyes, and then Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Excuse me, aren't the words I'm talking to you just nonsense?"
"you……"
Looking at the grinning Yuan Xudong, Chen Tonggang couldn't help but said angrily:
"Be serious. Before my lawyer comes, tell me the truth. Why did you report my live broadcast room?"
"You have a lawyer?"
Yuan Xudong pretended to be surprised and said:
"Then I'd like to meet your lawyer. What does she look like? Is she a big beauty? Or a small beauty? She can't be a man, right?"
"Yuan Xudong, be serious. I really have a lawyer. She's on her way here. Believe it or not, I will sue you in court!"
"Sue me?"
Looking at the angry Chen Tonggang, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Then you can sue me. Do you think too highly of yourself? Are you suffering from a chuunibyou syndrome? There are always villains who want to harm me."
"Yuan Xudong, let me tell you, I am..."
Before Chen Tong could finish his words, Yuan Xudong interrupted him again:
"Oh, by the way, why didn't you come with your lawyer? Are you kidding me? Do you have money to hire a lawyer to come to your house?"
"Whether I have money or not is none of your business..."
"Isn't he a junior lawyer or an intern?"
"Are you interrupting me again?"
"I'm sorry, you know, I've never been a very polite person. I usually only talk politely with pretty girls, but you're not a pretty girl. I'm so sorry!"
“You you…”
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling stuffy wearing a mask?"
Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"You don't really think you're a big star, do you? You wear a mask and sunglasses when you go out, and you wear a baseball cap. Are you afraid that your fans will recognize you?"
Seeing Chen Tonggang not speaking, Yuan Xudong almost died of laughter. He didn't expect that there were people who were so narcissistic. Seeing Yuan Xudong making fun of him, Chen Tonggang simply took off his hat, mask, and sunglasses, and then deliberately coughed loudly twice. Everyone nearby turned their heads to look at him, and then did what they had to do. Chen Tonggang was immediately embarrassed by such a joke. He picked up the wine glass on the table and pretended to drink two sips of whiskey. He was choked. After he finished drinking, Yuan Xudong said faintly:
"Are you disgusted? That's the cup I drank from, okay?"
"Isn't your cup in your hand?"
Chen Tonggang looked at him in disbelief. Yuan Xudong shrugged his shoulders and said deliberately:
"If you don't believe me, forget it. I like to drink whiskey in two glasses, isn't that okay?"
"I……"
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about reporting your live broadcast room. Why should I report your live broadcast room?"
Before Chen Tong could speak, Yuan Xudong thought for a moment and said:
"Even if I reported it, if there is no problem with your live broadcast room, it will be fine if I report it? What did you do in the live broadcast room?"
"I……"
"Did someone report you for selling three unlicensed products?"
"you……"
Seeing Yuan Xudong, who even knew the reason why his live broadcast room was reported, Chen Tonggang suddenly widened his eyes and said angrily:
"You still say you didn't report it? Then how do you know I was reported for selling three unlicensed products?"
“Are you really selling three-no products?”
Thinking of the many meal replacement shakes he had bought from Chen Tonggang, luckily they were all left at home and not eaten yet, especially Shen Mingbao hadn't eaten them. Yuan Xudong bought her all the big-brand food, or else he could make it at home, but he was worried about some unscrupulous merchants selling problematic food, especially the brand endorsed by Chen Tonggang that he had never heard of. These thoughts flashed through his mind, and Yuan Xudong looked at Chen Tonggang with contempt:
"You are amazing. A fitness trainer has changed his profession to sell fake goods?"
"No, who is selling fake goods?"
Looking at Yuan Xudong who was slandering his innocence, Chen Tonggang said angrily:
"Someone deliberately slandered me, saying that I was selling three-no products and that eating them would cause diarrhea. Did you send someone to do this?"
"Am I sick, or are you sick? I sent someone to frame you? Am I just bored? Am I sick?"
Looking at the indignant Chen Tonggang, Yuan Xudong was speechless. If he hadn't been idle and wanted to have some fun, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to this fool Chen Tonggang. After looking at him, Yuan Xudong said directly:
"It's actually very simple to know if someone is slandering you. Have you ever eaten the things you sell? Did you have diarrhea?"
"Myself?"
Hearing Yuan Xudong say this, Chen Tong Gang suddenly remembered that he ate a lot during the live broadcast that day, and as a result, he had unbearable stomach pain. He went to a nearby pharmacy to buy stomach medicine for treatment. After coming back, he went to the toilet several times before he felt a little better. He thought at the time that he had eaten too much during the live broadcast and felt uncomfortable. In addition, Gangzi repeatedly assured him that it was a regular product, so he didn't think about food safety issues. If it was really because he sold three-no products that caused so many people to have diarrhea, then wouldn't he be dead?
Seeing Chen Tonggang's face turn pale and blue at times, just like a chameleon, of course, these are all Yuan Xudong's imagination. In his eyes, Chen Tonggang is already a big chameleon. Seeing him changing his face, Yuan Xudong asked curiously:
"What's wrong with you? Have you thought of anything? Oh, by the way, I also bought over a thousand boxes of meal replacement shakes from you. Can I return them?"
After taking a look at Yuan Xudong, just when Chen Tonggang was about to grit his teeth and say yes, a girl wearing black wide-rimmed glasses walked into the executive bar. She looked around, and when she saw Chen Tonggang sitting opposite Yuan Xudong, she quickly walked over and said with a smile:
"I'm sorry, I'm late. There was a bit of traffic on the road. I guess this must be Mr. Yuan?"
The girl wearing glasses looked at Yuan Xudong, stretched out her hand and said with a smile:
"Hello, Mr. Yuan, my name is Lan Lan, and I am the attorney appointed by Mr. Chen Tonggang. Mr. Chen Tonggang appointed me..."
"Hello, Yuan Xudong, nice to meet you!"
After introducing each other, Chen Tong looked at Lan Lan who had just arrived and said awkwardly:
"I'm sorry, Lawyer Lan, I may have made a mistake in this matter. I'm really sorry that you made this trip in vain!"
"It's okay, let's continue to cooperate next time!"
"Thank you, thank you Lawyer Lan!"
"You're welcome. It's my duty. I'll be leaving now. Bye!"
"Lawyer Lan, can I buy you a drink?"
Looking at Lan Lan who was about to leave, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"It just so happens that I have some legal questions that I would like to consult a lawyer about. I'd like to ask Lawyer Lan for help, is that ok?"
“No problem, I’m happy to help others solve their legal difficulties!”
After taking a look at Yuan Xudong, Lan Lan sat down opposite him and said directly:
"Mr. Yuan, do you have any legal questions for me?"
Without answering Lan Lan, Yuan Xudong glanced at Chen Tonggang who was sitting next to her and smiled slightly:
"Mr. Chen, the next question concerns our company's commercial secrets. Do you think you should..."
"Do you mean for me to leave?"
Chen Tonggang was speechless, how could it be such a coincidence, it must be that Yuan Xudong was attracted by Lan Lan's beauty and wanted to take advantage of her.
After taking a look at Chen Tonggang, Yuan Xudong shrugged and said:
"I think you understand correctly. You can sit in the seat next to me, okay?"
After taking a look at Yuan Xudong, Chen Tong just stood up and left. He did not leave the bar, but sat down nearby, apparently wanting to stare at Yuan Xudong and ruin his good deeds. Yuan Xudong did not care. After all, there was a long way to go. He had just met Lan Lan for the first time and he had to go to Luo Yue's place tonight. He just needed to get to know Lan Lan first. He looked at Lan Lan, who was always smiling, and said with a smile:
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I was just joking with him, but I didn't expect that he would actually leave!"
Hearing Yuan Xudong's words, Lan Lan just smiled lightly and said nothing. Chen Tonggang, who was eavesdropping nearby, was almost angry to death. He wanted to go back, but changed his mind and gave up. At this time, Yuan Xudong looked at the smiling Lan Lan and said with a smile:
"Here's the thing. My business partner and I have opened a quantitative trading company. Do you know Huisi Finance?"
"I don't know. What company do you run?"
"No, it's a company started by my business partner, Rong Wenbao. Do you know Rong Wenbao?"
"I know Rongwenbao. It's an Internet financial platform where you can borrow and save money. Your business partner's business is pretty big!"
Hearing that it was Rong Wenbao, Lan Lan finally became interested and asked:
"So what do you do? Can you tell me?"
"Of course, I'm also in finance, but you probably haven't heard of me. My company is called Tengfei Capital, did you know that?"
“I actually know this!”
Hearing that Yuan Xudong was the boss of Tengfei Capital, Lan Lan immediately smiled and said:
"I'm an intern at Quanjin Law Firm, and I'm in the same building as Tengfei Capital, but I've never been to your floor!"
"That's a coincidence. Do you know Lawyer Luo Bin?"
"He is my sister's friend. Do you know Luo Lu?"
"I know him. Actually, I'm also a good friend of Luo Lu. I wonder who your sister is?"
"Lan Hong, do you know my sister?"
…
