The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 418: Chapter 196: The Dark Fairy Tale of the Princess and the Knight (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_3

Zhou Wang took a breath and with a smile said,

”If you don’t mention it again, I’m going to take it seriously.”

Zhou Wang just chuckled at this.

It seemed like a one-night stand, but for a girl like Jiang Mubai, Zhou Wang couldn’t really take it that way.

Come on, she grew up in an environment like a nightclub. This place is probably even murkier than the entertainment industry...

”Well... it’s like this, my contract with Cat Music is about to expire, but I don’t want to renew it. I want to start my own studio...”

Jiang Mubai hesitated for a moment but still expressed her thoughts.

”Is the contract expiring normally?”

Zhou Wang was taken aback.

”Uh-huh, I haven’t breached it. I shouldn’t have offended any executives either, but I’m worried the company won’t let me go...”

”You want me to help you handle this?”

Zhou Wang understood. As a top DJ, Jiang Mubai could also be considered a small cash cow. Her company would naturally find ways to keep her.

Even with a contract in place, Jiang Mubai naturally didn’t want to really burn bridges.

”Not necessarily, I just wanted to find out through Mr. Zhou what the company’s intentions are, so I can handle things better...”

Jiang Mubai hurriedly waved her hand, indicating she just wanted Zhou Wang to gather some inside information for her.

Zhou Wang nodded slightly. If it was just about that, Jiang Mubai indeed knew where to draw the line...

”I understand. I’ll ask around and get back to you later.”

Zhou Wang thought for a moment and said.

If it wasn’t too much trouble, he would try to help Jiang Mubai because...

Actually, he had gained more from her.

Jiang Mubai alone had given Zhou Wang shares amounting to over 10%, plus there seemed to be additional rewards. Zhou Wang had just heard a system prompt but hadn’t had a chance to check it.

So, in any case, Zhou Wang wouldn’t be at a loss.

After exchanging contact information, the blushing Jiang Mubai waved goodbye to Zhou Wang, ”Then, I’ll be off!”

”Okay.”

Zhou Wang nodded.

Jiang Mubai opened the door, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn’t have the courage to hug Zhou Wang again. She just pursed her lips and left quickly.

Zhou Wang finally let out a long breath...

Wasn’t a ”not just a one-night stand” also a one-night stand?

It fulfilled a small yearning he had upon entering the bar, making his life experience a little more complete, and it wasn’t too bad.

However, given Jiang Mubai’s current status, she shouldn’t be too reckless, yet to be safe, Zhou Wang thought about it and used the System Store to exchange for a bottle of ”Life Potion” that could eliminate various germs and enhance physique, then drank it himself.

...

When Zhou Wang returned to the V03 booth, Guo Bing and the others were still drinking and laughing loudly. No one seemed to think it was strange that Zhou Wang had disappeared for an hour...

After all, Zhou Wang wasn’t the only one who disappeared.

Guo Bing just winked at Zhou Wang and gave a thumbs-up, while Tong Jingcheng also showed a meaningful smile.

Only Shao Xiaoqi looked a bit disdainful, and a little jealous...

Damn it, he wanted Jiang Mubai too!

Before leaving, Jiang Mubai had come to say goodbye. Although she changed outfits, looking normal, swapping clothes was suspicious in its own right, right?

And with that obviously disheveled hair, even a fool could see something was up...

Unfortunately, Guo Bing had already been ”won over” by Zhou Wang, so Shao Xiaoqi couldn’t show anything and could only gripe silently.

Zhou Wang greeted a few people but didn’t bother with them. Instead, he walked to the other side, where only Song Rui was sitting, drinking silently.

Zhou Wang sat down beside him. Song Rui looked up at him, then silently picked up a bottle of Flying Moutai and poured a glass for Zhou Wang.

”Moutai?” Zhou Wang froze for a moment, then picked up the bottle to verify, and yes, it was indeed Moutai.

BSK’s bar menu did have Moutai; he saw it before, going for 8,888 a bottle. Still, seeing it in a setting like this felt odd to Zhou Wang.

”Yeah, I ordered a bottle myself... Don’t worry, Zhou Wang, I’ll pay for it. Join me for a drink?”

Song Rui seemed a little tipsy, slurring his words.

”Forget about money... sure, I’ll join you.”

Zhou Wang waved his hand, picked up the glass, clinked it with Song Rui’s, and then downed it in one go.

”Yiyi and her colleagues left earlier. Yiyi... isn’t well, she cried and vomited. I wanted to take her home, but she pushed me away.”

After drinking, Song Rui picked up a cigarette from the table, but he clearly wasn’t a regular smoker as he choked shortly after lighting it.

”If you lack the ability to change her, or the patience to wait for her to change, then maybe... she’s not the right girl for you.”

Zhou Wang also silently smoked, waiting until Song Rui fell silent to finally speak.

”What’s right for me? What am I right for?”

Suddenly, Song Rui seemed to be startled by something, lifting his head sharply, his eyes red, glaring at Zhou Wang. ”Zhou Wang, tell me, why is it that love, obviously just two simple words, has to come with so many conditions?”

His voice was loud, drawing the attention of Guo Bing and the others. Zhou Wang raised his hand to them, signaling that it was fine.

Then, he looked at Song Rui and sighed, ”Because, while emotions can be singular, the human heart is always complex...”

Song Rui instantly fell silent, just sitting there dazed.

It was unclear how long passed before he buried his head in his knees, and began to sob.
