Xino asked, "Then why is he letting you tag along?"
"What are you talking about? We’re good brothers. Just because your brother and his friends won’t hang out with , does that an no one else will?"
Yan Can said smugly, "Just you watch. Before you know it, you’ll all be calling President Yan."
Xino didn’t believe Yan Can. She knew exactly what kind of person he was.
But he had Xu Yun as a teammate.
It wasn’t out of the question that he might actually make so money and finally get on his feet.
Xino wasn’t interested in making money, but she was interested in Xu Yun.
’If I want to pursue him and get to know him, the first step is to get on the inside.’
Starting with a business partnership seed like a pretty good way to do it.
By collaborating on work-related matters, their interactions would naturally beco more frequent and seem perfectly reasonable.
’Maybe, over ti, feelings will develop, and Xu Yun will fall for .’
"Yan Can, are you guys still looking for people for this project?"
Xino asked with a smile, "I want to join, too."
"Uh, the project has already started."
Yan Can replied, "I’m heading to the film set tomorrow to check things out."
"That won’t do. You have to let in on it."
"My lady..."
Yan Can said, annoyed, "It’s not my call. If you want in, you should be talking to Xu Yun."
"Aren’t you two close? Put in a good word for ."
"Uhm..."
Hearing this, Yan Can suddenly looked a little awkward. "Actually, we’re not that close."
"???" Xino was confused.
"I actually just t Brother Xu at a Bentley owners’ etup."
Yan Can confessed, "At the ti, I saw he was driving a Bentley at such a young age and thought he was a rich kid like . It was only after we talked that I found out he’s a self-made entrepreneur."
"An entrepreneur?"
"Yeah. All the wealth he has now, he earned it himself. He didn’t rely on his family."
Yan Can said, "I saw how impressive he was and wanted to get on his good side so he’d let tag along.
We t a few more tis after that, and I happened to do him a favor, which is why he offered to bring into the fold."
"What favor did you do for him?"
"I helped him get a woman a job at the TV station."
"A woman?"
Xino’s interest was imdiately piqued. "Is she his girlfriend? Or just a regular friend?"
"I’m not sure, but I’d guess..."
Yan Can hesitated for a mont, then said, "Probably not his girlfriend. She’s a recent graduate from the Communication University, and she’s quite pretty."
"Compared to ?"
"Well..."
"Tell the truth."
"In terms of figure and looks, it’s a toss-up. You’re both about the sa."
Yan Can said cautiously, "I guess... her chest is just a tiny bit bigger than yours."
"..." Xino was speechless.
Seeing the change in Xino’s expression, Yan Can quickly added in fright, "Hey, you’re the one who told to be honest."
"What’s wrong with having a small chest?!"
Xino filled her and Yan Can’s glasses to the brim with alcohol, downed hers in one gulp, and said, "You n are so pathetic. Is having a big chest all that matters?"
"Big chests really are nice, though," Yan Can mumbled under his breath, disgruntled.
"Bullshit! I refuse to believe Xu Yun is that kind of person!"
"You’re not a man. I, for one, think he definitely likes won with big chests."
"And how would you know?"
Yan Can retorted stubbornly, "Because I’ve seen several of the won around him, and none of them have small chests."
"!!!" Xino was floored.
’Several won?’
"Does he have a lot of won around him?"
"Obviously."
Yan Can said, "Look at your brother. Does he have a lot of won flocking around him?"
"..." Xino fell silent.
Seeing Xino’s gloomy expression, Yan Can asked tentatively, "Nuomi, you’re so concerned about the won around Brother Xu... You haven’t fallen for him too, have you?"
"None of your damn business."
Xino shot him a glare and said, "I’m just being nosy, alright? Is there a law against that?"
"Nuomi, let give you so advice."
Yan Can said, "If you really like Brother Xu and want to pursue him, you can’t act all wild like you do with .
You have to be gentler. n like gentle won, like when you’re on stage singing."
"..." Xino was silent.
After that, Yan Can stayed at the bar a little longer, had a few more drinks with Xino, and then headed ho.
He said he was going ho, but he actually went to the private club where he had treated Xu Yun to a massage to enjoy himself.
But just as he walked in and was heading up to the second floor, he bumped into Chen Jiang, who was also there to relax.
Yan Can said awkwardly, "Young Master Chen, what a coincidence. You’re here for a massage too?"
"That’s right."
Young Master Chen gave him a aningful look and said, "Since we ran into each other, let’s go together. It’ll be a good chance to chat."
"..." Yan Can was hesitant.
And so, he was pulled into a private room by Chen Jiang. The two of them chatted while enjoying proper massages.
At first, it was just normal small talk, but as they kept talking, Yan Can noticed that Chen Jiang was deliberately steering the conversation toward Xu Yun.
So, Yan Can decided to play along by feeding him ambiguous answers. He spun a web of half-truths and lies, all designed to paint Xu Yun as an incredibly powerful figure with a mysterious and unfathomable background.
As it happened, the masseuse assigned to Chen Jiang was Xiaoli, the sa one who had given Xu Yun a massage that day.
After overhearing the conversation between Yan Can and Chen Jiang, she was utterly shocked to learn about Xu Yun’s status.
’I can’t believe I actually served such a powerful guy that day.’
Xiaoli suddenly missed him a little.
’Well, I miss his generous tip, too.’
「...」
Xu Yun was at Ning Qian’s place, where they were passionately entangled until the dead of night.
As they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder.
This ti, upon his return, it seed like every woman wanted to eat him alive.
After she was exhausted and resting, Xu Yun also took a short break before preparing to get up and leave.
But as it turned out, Ning Qian wasn’t asleep at all. She wrapped her arms around Xu Yun and pleaded, "It’s so late. Can’t you stay tonight?"
"I can’t."
Xu Yun patted her hand and said with a frank smile, "I have a eting with soone else."
