Not long after, probably due to Su Canye carrying tales, the adulterer-nabbing squad arrived. He had brought along Su Li, Shen Qingyan, Chai Zhiying, and Luo Pingxiang.
Su Li wore a pure white pleated dress, her face clear as running water, and not a single strand of her black hair was out of place. Her skin was so pale it could rival snow, and her exquisite and flawless face gave her an aloofness and distant auraâcold, yet beautiful.
Shen Qingyan wore a long, black dress. She had a tall figure, and her wavy hair cascaded down her back. It highlighted how perfect and pale her face was. She had an impassive gaze, and her eyes were clear as waterâher voluptuous figure bringing out her wild charms.
To Zhang Dashan, this moment was as unreal as a dream. The superstar Su Li who he could only catch a glimpse of on television, magazines, or brand endorsements, was actually standing right in front of him, in the flesh. Beside Su Li stood another lady who was only slightly less beautiful, who had a smoking hot body, and a lady he could not take his eyes off.
âIs this the woman you mentioned, Su Canye?â
Su Li frowned as she pointed at Zhang Dashan with a mocking expression and asked Su Canye a rhetorical question.
Su Canye felt extremely awkward. He had searched the entire apartment but could not find anyone else. He smiled when he couldnât find my evidence. âPerhaps it was him,â he said.
Haha, haha, hahaâ¦
Shen Qingyan was amused and could not help bursting out in laughter. âYouâre in trouble, guys. How dare you make fun of Su Li on such matters. I told you, didnât I? How can Xiao Luo be having an affair? Even if he is, he would never bring the woman back to the apartment unless he is a fool,â she said.
Su Canye was embarrassed. âItâs not my fault at all. It was because this man kept singing in a womanâs voice when he was bathing, and I jumped to the wrong conclusion,â Su Canye said.
âBro, âThe Drunken Beautyâ is supposed to be sung in a female voice. Just because the man was singing in a falsetto voice does not make him a woman,â Shen Qingyan said, unable to contain herself.
Zhang Dashan smiled. âBut you shouldnât be the person to blame. It was my fault. It was because I was singing so well that you thought I was a woman,â he said.
F*ck, who is this guy? How could he be so confident?
Su Canye looked at Zhang Dashan as if he was some freak.
âXiao Luo, who is he?â Shen Qingyan asked, showing some interest in Zhang Dashan.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHe is my friend, Zhang Dashan,â Xiao Luo replied.
And then, he formally introduced him to Shen Qingyan. He turned to Zhang Dashan, cleared his throat, and said, âThis is the President of the Huayao Corporation, Miss Shen, Shen Qingyan,â
As he introduced Shen Qingyan, Xiao Luo winked at Zhang Dashan, to hint that he should behave. Otherwise, he would miss the opportunity to impress her.
When Zhang Dashan saw that, he immediately ran into Xiao Luoâs bedroom and quickly came back. When he returned, he had put on a suit and tie, and his hair was neatly combed back, which made him look like a successful individual.
He offered his hand towards Shen Qingyan like a suave gentleman. âNice to meet you, Miss Shen,â he said.
Out of courtesy, Shen Qingyan reached out to shake his hand. âNice to meet you too,â she responded.
âI have heard about you for a long time. According to Forbes, you are one of the top ten marketing persons in Hua Nation and one of the most powerful women in the Asian business world. You are almost on the same level as Chu Yunxiong, the boss of Chongshan House in Jiangcheng. It is my honor to meet you today. By the way, you are an exceptionally gorgeous lady. Even being compared to Goddess Su, Miss Shenâs beauty is not inferior to hers,â Zhang Dashan crooned, unable to stop praising Shen Qingyan.
Xiao Luo let out a sigh. This guy was finally showing his true colors.
âOh my God, Brother-in-law. Your friend is really good at buttering up a person,â Su Canye said, matter-of-factly.
Zhang Dashan immediately waved his hand and responded, âButtering up? Donât you agree with what I just said?â
âIâ¦â Su Canye attempted to answer but was stumped.
Wisely, he remained silent. If I said I did not agree, then it would offend Shen Qingyan, he thought.
Ignoring them, Su Li had already sat down on the sofa with her gaze fixed on Xiao Luo all this while. In her mind, she was upset with him for not bringing her anything when he returned from the Maldives.
After receiving such flattery, Shen Qingyan laughed softly and said, âMr. Zhang, what do you do?â
âI also run a company. But compared with Miss Shenâs Huayao Corporation, mine is a small business, nothing to talk about,â Zhang Dashan said, making an attempt to be modest.
âRun a company? Huh, stop bragging. The last time I saw you, you were still living in the slums of Jiangcheng. It has only been less than a year, and now you say that you have a company? Who do you think you are talking to?â a disagreeing voice filtered across the room. It was Chai Zhiying, and she crossed her arms in front of her chest with a caustic look on her face.
âNever judge a man who has made great progress by his past. Miss Chai, you have no understanding of what a man can achieve,â Zhang Dashan shot back and restrained his desire to curse.
âSuch a jerk. Do you think you can achieve such success?â Chai Zhiying retorted as a woman scorned.
Her face was full of disdain. âHuh, thatâs the stupidest thing I have ever heard! Donât make me laugh, you geek. If you donât have a company, then say so. How dare you pretend in front of Miss Shen,â she berated him.
She thought that Zhang Dashan was so full of himself. She might have believed him if he had said he was running a small shop or had set up a stall. But run a company? How dare he? Was he trying to impress Miss Shen? She could tell just by the way he acted that he was trying to impress Shen Qingyan.
âHeâs my friend. If you insist on being rude to him, then get out of my face!â Xiao Luo scowled.
Chai Zhiying did not dare to talk back at Xiao Luo. She would never forget how Xiao Luoâs eyes looked when he was angry. They made him look fearsome, like a wild beast, and she immediately kept quiet.
âOld Xiao, what are you doing? Sheâs Goddess Suâs agent. For Goddess Suâs sake, do not be so rude. After all, even if you want to beat a dog, you should consider who its owner is,â Zhang Dashan sneered.
Even if you want to beat a dog, you should consider who its owner is?
Shen Qingyan, Su Li, Su Canye, and Luo Pingxiang were all slightly stunned. They looked at Zhang Dashan in astonishment. This guy had sarcastically put Chai Zhiying in her place with this harsh insult. And he did that with a smile on his face, like a wolf in sheepâs clothing.
Chai Zhiyingâs face turned red. âBast*rd, what are you saying?â
âWhat did I say? I am reprimanding my bro for his inappropriate behavior toward you. What is the matter? Did I say something wrong?â Zhang Dashan said with an air of innocence.
Chai Zhiying glowered at him. âThe vulgar will always deserve to live at the bottom of the heap,â she sneered.
âI am vulgar? Wellâ¦â Zhang Dashan replied, laughing.
âIsnât the word âbast* rdâ vulgar? It seems that you are not any better than me. And not to mention, such language coming from a woman.â
âYouâ¦â Chai Zhiying hissed, gritting her teeth in outrage.
What the heck, this guy is awesome!
Su Canye was full of admiration. He had such deep respect for Chai Zhiying and her tenacity to hold her own. But this guy gave Chai Zhiying as good as he got. He was something else.
Shen Qingyan found Zhang Dashan interesting. âMr. Zhang, since you said you owned a company. Can you tell me the name of your company?â she asked.
âLuo Workshop,â Zhang Dashan replied.
Xiao Luo almost spewed out the tea he was drinking. What the hell? Didnât he agree not to say anything? What the f*ck was he doing?â Xiao Luo felt betrayed by Zhang Dashan.
Luo Workshop?
Upon hearing the Company name, Su Li, Shen Qingyan, and Chai Zhiyingâs expressions instantly changed.
âIs it the Luo Workshop from Jiangcheng?â Shen Qingyan further questioned.
âThatâs right. Jiangchengâs Luo Workshop,â Zhang Dashan replied.
Shen Qingyan gazed at him closely and finally remembered something. âSo it was you. The one who fought the lawsuit against Taste Buds last year. Did you act on behalf of Luo Workshop? There was even a video on the Internet.â
âOh, Miss Shen has seen that video?â
Zhang Dashan was overjoyed and said, âIt seems like I have something in common with Miss Shen.â
