In hindsight, he almost went all the way with her last ti, not entirely because he was acting on impulse, but mainly because he was manipulated by her.
At the ti, being alone in a room with such a beautiful woman like Yang Wenqi, who occasionally flirted with him and even initiated physical contact, coupled with her alluring perfu, it was normal for any man to find it hard to resist.
Thinking back later, he felt that his overly lustful behavior was a bit odd, leading him to vaguely suspect if there was sothing wrong with the water Yang Wenqi gave him.
Although he believed his mind was clear at the ti, the sudden rush of heat made him feel strange. After all, he had long passed the age where a re picture could make him excited for hours, and with his vast experience with won, he shouldn’t have been so out of control.
But this matter had happened so many days ago, there was no way to investigate. Moreover, Yang Wenqi was the new star and cash cow that his company planned to promote heavily, so Chen Feng could only pretend nothing had happened.
After all, he had gained a significant advantage from the situation and certainly had not lost out.
However, when it cos to Yang Wenqi, Chen Feng felt a bit uneasy, and he no longer wanted private interactions with her.
[I’m busy today. I’ll visit Hengdian next ti. This opportunity is very rare, so focus on understanding the character and acting your role well. Don’t get distracted; playing the part well is the most important thing.]
Not long after sending this ssage, Yang Wenqi replied with a sad emoji, to which Chen Feng did not respond.
A while later, Yang Wenqi sent another ssage: [I don’t know what I did wrong to make you avoid like this. I’m very sad. Without an answer, I can’t focus entirely on acting.]
After reading this, Chen Feng couldn’t help but frown slightly. Was this a threat?
After thinking it over, Chen Feng replied: [To put it simply, what happened between us last ti was a mistake. Fortunately, we hadn’t really crossed a line, so it’s not too late now.
As you probably know, I’m a womanizer with enough won around . If you want to join them, it’s not beneficial for you. I can’t promise you anything.
Additionally, rest assured, even without a very close relationship with , the company will still promote you. ’Green Jade Case’ is just the beginning. You shouldn’t feel any psychological pressure.]
A few minutes later, Yang Wenqi replied: [I understand, and I’m sorry for bothering you. But I must say, I never intended to use our closeness to advance my career. I just...admire you a bit; it’s that simple. Even knowing you have other won, like Xinyan, I can’t stop thinking about you.]
After reading this, Chen Feng chuckled inwardly and put his phone aside. If it were any other man, hearing that a woman of Yang Wenqi’s caliber admired him, he would probably be too dizzy to think straight.
But Chen Feng wasn’t that kind of shallow man. Though Yang Wenqi was indeed beautiful, her calculative nature and manipulative tendencies weren’t to his liking. Even if she ca to him willingly, he wouldn’t accept.
The reason being, he didn’t want to cause trouble for himself, let alone risk being betrayed by her one day.
Seeing no further ssages from Chen Feng, Yang Wenqi bit her lip lightly, sat on the sofa in her rented apartnt’s living room, and after holding her phone for more than ten minutes, finally put it down with a light sigh.
She considered herself strategic, but not overly cunning. She believed she was still a good girl.
At least she had kept her purity since graduating from college, not giving it away easily, which was better than at least 99% of her peers. Could she be called a bad girl?
In truth, she’d never really plotted against anyone, though she tried to manipulate Chen Feng this ti, and inadvertently pitted Xin Yuqing against him. Did that make her wrong?
She didn’t think so. She wanted to offer the best of herself to Chen Feng, as he was the man she truly admired at the mont. Seeking to level up her social status through her boss Chen Feng, was there anything wrong with that? No, there wasn’t. In fact, it was Chen Feng who benefitted the most.
After all, won of her beauty level, still virgins, were an extrely rare resource, representing imnse value in themselves.
Now, she wanted to give herself completely to Chen Feng, was that wrong? Absolutely not. Instead, it demonstrated her absolute trust in Chen Feng.
At most, it was an investnt based on trust. If it paid off, she would get her due rewards. If it failed, she would lose everything.
In this aspect, she actually bore a significant risk, while there was virtually no risk for Chen Feng.
So, even if she did calculate Chen Feng in this regard, he wouldn’t be at a loss, and she was far from wrong.
As for making small calculations against Xin Yuqing, it wasn’t wrong at all. They were competitors by nature. Had Xin Yuqing gotten her hands on resources, she wouldn’t share them either. So why should she yield to Xin Yuqing?
From the start, they were never friends, at most colleagues, and competing ones at that.
She didn’t regard Xin Yuqing as an enemy, which already showed her kindness.
Therefore, she had no psychological burden about occasionally plotting against Xin Yuqing.
But now that Chen Feng refused her, it left her feeling powerless. Last ti, she was so close to naturally progressing things with Chen Feng, but unfortunately, it was ruined by Xin Yuqing.
Not having a substantial relationship with Chen Feng left her feeling insecure.
Regardless of whether the ’Green Jade Case’ would be successful or her secondary role would gain popularity, even if it did, she’d just be a minor celebrity, not particularly noteworthy or impressive.
At least, she would still be nowhere near Jin Xinyan’s level.
Jin Xinyan, having invested in the production, beca one of the investors of ’Green Jade Case’, which already put her above in terms of status and class. Not to ntion, Jin Xinyan was now a vice president of a company valued in the billions.
Even if she beca famous and beca a star, truth be told, her status would still not surpass that of a truly wealthy investor or the upper managent of a well-known film company.
For example, Wu ngting and Sun Xiaorui of Fengmang Film and Television Company, she also knew were Chen Feng’s won, and they definitely had a higher status than her.
Because she was rely a contracted artist at Fengmang Film and Television Company, while they were executives at Fengmang.
Therefore, after entering Fengmang Film and Television Company and gradually understanding Chen Feng’s strength as a boss, her ultimate goal was never to be a star, but to beco a company executive like Wu ngting and Sun Xiaorui, or even the lady boss of Fengmang Film and Television Company.
