Mu Xiaoyu wasn't surprised by Chen Zhe's good looks; she'd seen plenty of handsome men and was immune to appearances.
What surprised her was Chen Zhe's attire.
She didn't recognize the brand of the Armani suit, the Rolex watch, and the shoes, but she could tell from the quality they were expensive.
Women have an innate sensitivity to luxury goods.
Her eyes lit up with excitement. She had just been lamenting that she hadn't encountered a big fish yet, and now one had come along!
She has two shallow dimples when she smiles, which are especially charming and beautiful.
But Chen Zhe knew that beneath that handsome exterior lay a heart of deceit and fraud.
"Yes! Then you take the picture for me!"
Without hesitation, she handed over her diamond-encrusted phone; "Remember to take beautiful pictures of me!"
She said it in a coquettish tone.
Chen Zhe smiled and then quite earnestly started taking pictures of her.
The two chatted and laughed.
After sensing that things were about right, Mu Xiaoyu tentatively asked, "Are you here for tourism?"
"No, I'm here on a business trip. I have a few medicinal herb plantations around here, and I came to take a look. I just happened to have some free time, so I came to the ancient city to see if there's anything I can invest in."
Hearing that the other party was in business, Mu Xiaoyu was even happier.
“My dad also works at a medicinal herb plantation. It seems we’re quite destined for each other. Have you eaten yet? Why don’t we eat together? I can tell you about the local customs and culture.”
"That would be perfect."
"Come on! I'll take you to a great restaurant; their signature dishes are especially delicious."
"Okay, lead the way!"
The two walked side by side, laughing.
Tang Zihao secretly followed behind.
...
It was the same restaurant as yesterday. When she entered, Mu Xiaoyu still habitually observed Chen Zhe, who, as expected, didn't even blink.
She felt a surge of joy.
[Hehe, another big fish caught. Heaven has really been kind to me.]
She skillfully took the menu and prepared to order.
Just then, Tang Zihao strode over angrily.
"You liar!!! You food scammer!! You cheated me so badly last night, and now you're trying to cheat other people. Don't you have any conscience?"
When Mu Xiaoyu saw Tang Zihao, she was startled. Fortunately, the staff reacted quickly. They had been working with Mu Xiaoyu for a long time and had encountered such situations before. The two of them stepped forward and quickly pulled Tang Zihao away.
Chen Zhe feigned surprise and asked, "Do you know that person from just now?"
"No, no, no!! I don't know him!"
Mu Xiaoyu, of course, dared not admit it.
"He just called you a food scammer. Did something happen between you two?"
"No, that's not true!! Don't misunderstand. He's just one of my suitors. I don't actually know him well. He's taken a liking to me and has been bothering me ever since. I'm so annoyed."
"Oh...I see, okay."
Seeing that Chen Zhe seemed a little skeptical, Mu Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment.
"Don't worry, I invited you here, so it's on me."
Mu Xiaoyu really didn't want to let go of Chen Zhe, this big fish. She didn't want to date those men who weren't even willing to spend 800 yuan anymore.
"This...this is too much trouble."
"It's okay!! That's just how I am. I invited you here, so of course I'll pay for it. Don't worry, I'm not a tout."
Seemingly afraid that Chen Zhe wouldn't believe her, Mu Xiaoyu quickly ordered a few dishes and then called the waiter over to settle the bill.
She felt a little distressed when it came time to pay. The meal cost her over 5,000 yuan, and even with the discount, it would still cost her 3,000 yuan.
I paid for this 3,000 yuan myself.
You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub!
Mu Xiaoyu thought to herself.
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry to have troubled you to spend so much money."
"It's nothing, it's just a small amount of money. My dad gives me a lot of pocket money, so I don't care about this little bit."
To have more confidence in front of Chen Zhe, Mu Xiaoyu lied without hesitation.
"Oh, you just said your dad works at a medicinal herb plantation, right?"
"Yes, you're here to invest, right?"
"Yes, I bought a few medicinal herb plantations here. I don't know much about them, I'm just doing it for fun."
Wow! You look so young, are you a rich kid? You're so wealthy!
"Haha, you could say that. I'm from Beijing. My father owns more than a dozen construction companies, my mother owns more than a dozen entertainment clubs, and my aunt is a bank manager..."
Chen Zhe named several wealthy individuals in one go, leaving Mu Xiaoyu stunned.
Her heart was pounding.
[A huge fish!! This is a super huge fish!!!]
As a "fisherwoman," she would definitely regret it to death if she let this big fish get away.
"Your family is really rich. No wonder you can buy things so easily. Your family is so good at business. You must be good at business too, right?"
"I have some experience. I studied abroad, worked in investment banking, and then opened several investment companies after returning to China. I've accumulated some knowledge."
Mu Xiaoyu swallowed hard.
How much did you earn?
While eating, Chen Zhe casually remarked, "It's not much, just a few billion."
The little wooden fish's mouth is big enough to fit two eggs.
"That much isn't enough? I don't think I could earn that much money in my lifetime. Not to mention this lifetime, I wouldn't earn that much even in my next life."
Chen Zhe put down his chopsticks and took a sip of tea.
"Actually, making money isn't difficult. As long as you find the right method and follow the right people, money will come flowing in like water."
Hearing this made Mu Xiaoyu's heart pound.
"So, do you think I have a chance?"
Chen Zhe wiped his mouth with a tissue, crossed his arms, and carefully examined her.
"Not bad. You seem clever, have a good image, and are generous. I've met people like you before, and with my help, they're all now worth over 100 million."
Mu Xiaoyu's eyes lit up. If she could really earn a hundred million, she would give anything for it.
"Really? Then can you help me too?"
Chen Zhe smiled and said, "We've only just met. You're treating me to a 5,000 yuan meal and you expect me to help you? That's too cheap of me."
"No, no, no!!! Of course, it's not just that! I'll show you around properly today, and you'll see how I do. If you think I do well, give me a chance, okay?"
Chen Zhe pretended to hesitate for a long time.
Mu Xiaoyu was very nervous while waiting.
"Okay, I'll give you a chance, but let me make this clear first: if you really want to treat me to something today, be prepared, my spending habits are not low."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat.
She hesitated.
Earning money isn't easy, so why don't you seriously reconsider?
At this moment, Chen Zhe stood up and said, "I think I should leave. I'll pay for the bill. I'll transfer the money to you."
Upon hearing that Chen Zhe was leaving, Mu Xiaoyu made up her mind.
"No, no, no! Promise me you'll agree! I'm very generous, you can play however you want, I'll do my best to make you happy."
