In the private room, after the bald man had scurried away, tumbling and crawling, Chang Yuanyi’s expression was incredibly dark. It was solely because that damned bastard was associated with him. Even though Qin Fan hadn’t pursued the matter, he still couldn’t completely extricate himself.
An overwhelming sense of sha surged through him. Looking at Qin Fan with his cheeks burning, he said, "My apologies, Mr. Qin. That was embarrassing."
"Don’t worry about it. You’re you, and he’s him," Qin Fan said, shaking his head with a wry smile. He knew exactly what Chang Yuanyi was thinking.
"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Qin!" Hearing Qin Fan’s reassuring words, Chang Yuanyi felt an inexplicable wave of relief wash over him. He then added, "Mr. Qin, are you busy tonight? If you’re free, how about we go out and have so fun? I’ve already booked a karaoke room at the Jinling Hotel. A few A-list actresses are in Jinling for a film shoot, and I’ve invited all of them to spend the evening with us!"
Before Qin Fan could respond, Ma Yunbin hurriedly chid in, "Mr. Qin, it’s been so long since we hung out. Give your little brother a chance to treat you right! How about it? We’ll sing, drink, and flirt with so girls. Sound good?"
He knew that if he didn’t speak up, Qin Fan would definitely refuse Chang Yuanyi’s kind offer.
Truth be told, Ma Yunbin was often puzzled. Why didn’t a guy like Mr. Qin, at his age, enjoy having fun? Cars, won, nightlife—all the things that young n found irresistible—seed to hold zero temptation for him. Ma Yunbin just couldn’t figure it out, he really couldn’t. Mr. Qin’s personality also indirectly robbed him of many opportunities to curry favor!
Glancing at his watch, Qin Fan hesitated for a mont before saying, "Forget it. I’m not interested. You guys go on your own."
"Mr. Qin! Co on, don’t be like that! Don’t be so unsociable. I ca all this way just to hang out with you, you know? It wasn’t easy for ! Let’s go together!" Ma Yunbin shalessly pleaded. If he weren’t afraid of getting kicked, he would have grabbed Qin Fan’s arm.
"Get lost! First of all, I have no interest in those celebrities and perforrs. Second, drinking and singing aren’t my hobbies. And third, your shalessness is really getting on my nerves!" Qin Fan couldn’t help but laugh as he chided him.
They say everyone has a fool and a reckless athead in their circle. It was hard to say who he’d et in the future, but for now, Brother Ze from the Northeast was reckless enough, and Ma Yunbin was definitely foolish enough.
"Mr. Ma, since Mr. Qin isn’t interested, should we still go?" Chang Yuanyi asked sheepishly.
"Go? Of course, we’re going! Mr. Qin is a god, an Immortal who doesn’t partake in the pleasures of the Human World! But we’re just re mortals, right? By the way, about those actresses... have you slept with any of them? If you have, don’t bring them along." Seeing Qin Fan’s firm stance, Ma Yunbin finally gave up on convincing him.
"Of course not! On an occasion for you and Mr. Qin, how could I possibly bring along my used goods? Besides, these are all A-list actresses, the new darlings of the entertainnt industry, incredibly popular right now. Even if they’re not completely ’untouched,’ I doubt they’ve been with many guys. They all maintain this pure, innocent image, like they’re the ’Nation’s Daughter’ or the ’Nation’s Daughter-in-law’!" Chang Yuanyi said with a fawning smirk.
To entertain Ma Yunbin this ti, Chang Yuanyi had even invoked the na of the Chang Family. After all, gathering several new A-list starlets, all active on both the big and small screens, was no easy feat. It wasn’t just about whether the actresses themselves were willing; their managent companies wouldn’t dare let their artists take such a risk. If word got out, the public image of these stars would collapse instantly, and the companies would lose these valuable cash cows that still had so much potential to be tapped. But on Jinling’s turf, with Young Master Chang waving the Chang Family banner, these companies had no choice but to grit their teeth and suffer in silence.
"What was that? ’Nation’s Daughter’? ’Nation’s Daughter-in-law’? Who exactly is coming?" Ma Yunbin blurted out.
"There’s Di Li, Guan Tong, Zhao Ying, and a few others whose nas I can’t recall. Anyway, they’re all big nas who are massively popular in the entertainnt industry right now!" Chang Yuanyi said.
Zhao Ying?
Hearing the na, Qin Fan froze, his brow furrowing.
mories from his past life flooded his mind uncontrollably. In his previous life, during his most desperate hour, he had been dead drunk on a rainy night, collapsed on the street and letting the downpour wash over him. A film crew was shooting a rain scene nearby, but no one paid any attention to a drunkard like him. In the end, it was Zhao Ying who ca over with her bodyguard and assistant to help him up. After a brief exchange, she had her bodyguard take him ho. That night, despite his stupor, he was conscious enough to recognize the actress as Zhao Ying. She had only given him an umbrella, helped him up from the rain-soaked ground, and had her bodyguard escort him ho. But these small gestures had completely ward Qin Fan’s heart. Even though they never crossed paths again, and he never got the chance to find her and say thank you, that event, which Zhao Ying would have surely considered trivial, had taken deep root in Qin Fan’s heart. He never forgot that he owed her his thanks. Although that fateful encounter from his past life would not happen in this one, that didn’t an Qin Fan could simply pretend it never existed.
As the mories slowly faded, Qin Fan said in a low, heavy voice, "You can ss around with the others all you want, but don’t you get any ideas about Zhao Ying."
What?
Stunned by Qin Fan’s sudden declaration, Chang Yuanyi and Ma Yunbin both stared at him, dumbfounded.
What was going on? Don’t get any ideas about Zhao Ying? Is Mr. Qin involved with her? But wasn’t he uninterested in celebrities and perforrs? Why was he getting so worked up over Zhao Ying?
"M-Mr. Qin, what’s going on? Are you and Zhao Ying...?" Ma Yunbin stamred, wiggling his thumbs together with a ridiculously lewd expression.
Chang Yuanyi, standing to the side, was even more baffled.
If Mr. Qin really had a connection to Zhao Ying, did that an he had crossed a line again?
Thinking of this, Chang Yuanyi quickly explained, "Mr. Qin, I didn’t know you had a connection with Zhao Ying! I’m sorry, so sorry! I know what to do!"
With that, without waiting for Qin Fan to speak, Chang Yuanyi imdiately took out his phone.
"Mr. Qin, you didn’t actually hook up with Zhao Ying, did you? Hehe, you sly dog, you! When did this happen? Did sothing go down when you suddenly vanished for a while?" Ma Yunbin teased, winking and leering. He was the very picture of lewdness, making it hard to believe he was one of the profligate young masters from the Four-nine City.
"Scram!"
Shooting Ma Yunbin an exasperated look, Qin Fan couldn’t stop himself from landing a light kick on his rear. When it ca to this scoundrel—who had fallen for a honey trap back in Shuidong and ended up stripped naked and whipped—Qin Fan was truly at a loss for words.
"You can look out for Zhao Ying from now on. Also, I don’t want to see any of that casting couch nonsense happening to her," Qin Fan said, gesturing with his chin toward them just as Chang Yuanyi put his phone down and was about to speak.
"Yes, Mr. Qin! Rest assured, I know exactly what to do!" Ma Yunbin replied, his lewd smirk still in place.
"Yes, Mr. Qin. I understand," Chang Yuanyi chid in, nodding solemnly.
"Let’s go." Glancing at the ti, Qin Fan let out a breath and nodded.
However, as they were leaving the private room and walking out into the main hall, Qin Fan’s steps abruptly halted.
Seeing the approaching figures, a terrifying chill instantly emanated from him.
His face twisted into an expression of unprecedented ferocity.
This was, without a doubt, the first ti Qin Fan had ever shown such a reaction since his rebirth.
