The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 150: Chapter 121 Different Xu Wenqian_2 Chapter 150 -121 Different Xu Wenqian_2 “I hope you’ve thought this through.”

After the vehicle smoothly merged onto the elevated road, Zhou Wang, who had been resting his eyes, suddenly spoke.

“Hmm?”

Shen Yutong clearly couldn’t quite grasp his meaning.

“Do you know what the biggest difference is between you and Su Yajing?”

Shen Yutong shook her head.

“You’re living with too much internal conflict.”

Zhou Wang sighed lightly.

Shen Yutong froze, opened her mouth to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

“In this world, everyone hopes to stand while making money, but for most people, it’s impossible.”

Zhou Wang continued, speaking to himself, “I don’t know about your family, nor what you’ve experienced growing up to this point, but that indecisive nature of yours is actually quite obvious.”

“I…”

“You can’t expect to have it all. Although you opened up to me and let go of much restraint, I think you haven’t figured out what you really want.”

Zhou Wang waved his hand to stop Shen Yutong, who was about to speak, “Do you see my money, or do you want me to help you with your career? What are your true expectations for life… This is a very important question.”

“You might call me hypocritical, but I don’t like pure exchanges of interests. Do you know why?”

Once again, Shen Yutong shook her head.

“Because I don’t lack that.”

Zhou Wang smiled, “At least not right now, so when I said before that I’m not someone who’s easily swayed by appearances, it was somewhat true, though maybe it’s also because you haven’t really attracted me yet.”

Shen Yutong was a bit bewildered, unable to utter a single word.

Every word from Zhou Wang hit the core of her feelings.

Her actions today seemed more like the impulse that follows inner turbulence, but she was also unsure if she truly was willing to be Zhou Wang’s lover or if she just wanted to use it as a stepping stone.

If it were the latter, it might backfire.

What set her apart from Su Yajing might be just a touch of ambition, but that ambition could very well repel Zhou Wang at some point.

This was the meaning Zhou Wang wanted to convey, and she understood it.

“Because you are Su Yajing’s best friend, I retain a bit of respect. I’ll pretend today’s events didn’t happen. When you truly figure out what you want, then come to me.”

“I understand, thank you. I will think about it carefully.”

Shen Yutong took a deep breath and said, her tone genuinely sincere.

She was truly grateful because she knew that if Zhou Wang wanted to, he could easily take her innocence, but he didn’t.

“See, speaking like this is quite nice, just like when we had drinks at the bar that day. At least we can simply be friends, and don’t be so uptight in the future—it’s exhausting.”

This was another reason Zhou Wang hadn’t been interested in Shen Yutong before; she always acted so cautiously, which really made it hard to pique one’s interest!

“Alright, then I’ll just call you Zhou Wang…”

Feeling a bit more relaxed, Shen Yutong began chatting and laughing with Zhou Wang, her gaze softening in a way it never had before.

Ding!

At that moment, Zhou Wang suddenly heard a system notification.

“The highest realm of flirtation often defeats the enemy imperceptibly.”

“Detected that the host successfully gained the subtle admiration of more than two high-quality women without any intimate contact, lighting up the ‘Male God’ badge once, and earning the first-stage achievement reward.”

“They say ‘young and accomplished, driving a Bentley,’ so here’s a Bentley for you.”

Ding!

“The host has received a Bentley Continental GT x1.”

“Please, host, bring your ID to the Bentley Ming City 4S center to collect the vehicle in three days.”

Hmm?

Another achievement unlocked?

But why does the system still talk in such a distasteful way, as if I’m coaxing people? I’m clearly guiding a lost young girl…

However, Zhou Wang also noticed the system’s wording.

“High-quality women”…

That probably didn’t include someone like Sun Yi.

After all, even Su Yajing was only rated as “relatively high quality,” losing to Shen Yutong in terms of body curves, so who was the other high-quality woman?

Yu Duo? Hua Suisui?

Zhou Wang thought for a moment, unsure of whom the system was referring to, but it wasn’t important.

A Bentley Continental GT!

A car worth several million—not bad at all…

Zhou Wang was already quite calm, feeling like he had figured out a pattern to the “achievement” rewards. It seemed that the first stage always rewarded cars; he wondered what the second stage would offer.

But if it’s a car, that’s fine by me. I can fill the ten parking slots under the apartment building gradually.

“Zhou Wang, we’re here. Where should I park?”

Shen Yutong’s inquiry brought Zhou Wang back from his thoughts.

“Just park anywhere by the road, then you don’t need to worry about it; someone will drive it away.”

Zhou Wang didn’t say anything foolish like asking Shen Yutong to drive back; as if she dared!

The place was quite close to his home, so Zhou Wang planned to have Chen Mei find a property manager to drive it.

“Oh, then… I’ll head back first?”

Getting out of the car, Shen Yutong clutched her bag, feeling a little reluctant.

“Where are you going?”

“Duoduo has a vacant apartment. I’ll stay there for a few days and maybe rent a place in the city later.”

“Okay, go ahead. Take care.”

After speaking, Zhou Wang turned to leave, but seeing Shen Yutong still standing there dazed, he remembered the Bentley and sighed. He turned back and gave her a light hug, which left her eyes widened in disbelief.

“Go on home now.”

Waving his hand, Zhou Wang strode away.

Shen Yutong stood there for a while, then smiled and cheerfully turned to leave.

…

The location Xu Wenqian sent was a Live house Zhou Wang hadn’t heard of, also near the city center.

Upon entering, Zhou Wang found the bar small but surprisingly with a good atmosphere. The band performing live was singing an old song that Zhou Wang really liked.

His gaze swept around and quickly landed on the striking figure sitting alone at the bar.

Though it was just a back view, a pretty girl is a pretty girl; she stands out no matter the angle.

Zhou Wang walked over and, passing another side of the bar, overheard a guy trying to encourage his companion:

“Go for it, she’s been sitting there for two hours. She’s definitely alone…”

“Why don’t you go?”

“You’re better looking than me, you can do it!”

“But you’re better at chatting!”

“Bro, my skills are only for online banter, it’s different…”

Observing the mutual pushing and shoving between the two guys, Zhou Wang found it amusing.

He could imagine this wasn’t the first time they’d squabbled here.

Most guys fantasize about having a fling at a bar every day, but when the opportunity presents itself, few have the courage.

Especially when facing a beauty of Xu Wenqian’s caliber. More people will feel unworthy than those who are clueless about the situation.

Passing by the two, Zhou Wang sat down on the other side of Xu Wenqian.

He tapped the table and signaled to the bartender, “Give me whatever she’s having.”

He didn’t know what Xu Wenqian was drinking since he rarely drank cocktails, but judging by its flashy look, it probably wasn’t too strong.

Noticing the movement, Xu Wenqian turned her head. Seeing Zhou Wang, her dark eyes brightened.

“Mr. Zhou, you’re here…”

Looking into her eyes, Zhou Wang was momentarily stunned.

Wow, no wonder those two guys were so restless, Xu Wenqian looks so different today!

As his exclusive customer service at the bank, Zhou Wang’s impression of Xu Wenqian involved her always dressed in her business suit, which gave her beauty a touch of competence.

But today, though her slender figure was still wrapped in a long coat, her hairstyle was entirely different.

It was a loose bun paired with unusually stunning makeup, exuding a completely different allure.

“Did you… get your hair done?”

Zhou Wang asked, somewhat unsure.

He then noticed a pack of ESSE ladies’ cigarettes beside Xu Wenqian, with several already smoked. His surprise deepened.

Getting her hair done and smoking, what was Xu Wenqian up to?
