The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1446: Chapter 567: Recurring NPC_2

She remembers that even when she first pulled the trigger during a mission, she was not as nervous as she is now...

The dazzling lights lingered on her face, occasionally piercing her eyes, giving Qu Peining a perfect excuse to close her eyes. Around her was the clamor of people drinking and dancing wildly, making Qu Peining feel as if countless eyes were on her.

Was she also turning into those shameless men and women like before?

The warm breath seemed to have already touched her lips. The noise around Qu Peining was fading away, and she could only hear the singer on stage singing passionately:

”Plotting to escape, even that is wrong, plundering even my right to be vulnerable, I don’t sing heart-wrenching love songs, but that doesn’t mean there are no heartbroken moments...”

The lyrics are written so well.

Qu Peining unconsciously thought.

Growing up, it seemed she was also deprived of the right to be ”vulnerable,” her mother always said she was destined to be different from other girls.

But now, nestled here, about to shamelessly kiss a man in public, what difference did she have?

Thinking this, Qu Peining suddenly felt a sense of surrender, even loosening her tightly pressed lips, revealing the white teeth hidden beneath the red, adding a touch of allure.

Even Zhou Wang couldn’t help himself this time.

Just at the moment when the two were about to touch, Qu Peining suddenly felt her phone vibrate inside her tight jeans.

At this moment, when she was entirely sensitive, the vibration startled her like a bird frightened, she immediately opened her eyes.

Her long-developed habit pulled her out of her dazed state at this moment, and she instinctively took out her phone for a glance.

The incoming call was a voice call, and the screen’s remark read ”Senior Sister Jiang.”

Just those three simple words, yet like a bucket of cold water poured over Qu Peining, pulling all her wandering thoughts back to reality.

What am I doing?

I’m supposed to be here to help Senior Sister Jiang, yet now, I’m clinging to her man, even about to kiss him in public...

The conflicting emotions that she intentionally forgot and suppressed in her heart for days suddenly all surged up, making it hard for her to breathe.

There was self-contempt, shame in her inability to resist temptation, guilt toward her senior sister, and self-doubt...

So within Zhou Wang’s shocked gaze, Qu Peining suddenly broke free, rapidly moving to the other side of the sofa, parting the hands they had intertwined, and Zhou Wang’s fingers even felt a slight pain.

”What happened?”

Zhou Wang furrowed his brows and asked.

Because Qu Peining’s movement was fast, Zhou Wang didn’t see who was calling her, but he sensed the drastic change in her emotions.

”It’s... nothing.”

Qu Peining shook her head, thought for a moment, and then said to Zhou Wang, ”Zhou Wang, I can try to be friends with you, but... please don’t do anything beyond boundaries.”

At this moment, Qu Peining appeared somewhat righteous and stern, her cheeks flushed, but her expression was tense, as if telling Zhou Wang she was not joking.

Zhou Wang raised an eyebrow in surprise, initially wanting to say something more, but seeing Qu Peining now fully on guard, he chose to remain silent.

Just then, as the roaming signboard lights up, a long line of waitstaff carrying various expensive drinks placed in light boxes made their way toward Zhou Wang’s King Card.

The commotion instantly attracted a lot of attention, many admiring glances were cast in this direction.

The marketing manager approached briskly, extending both hands to shake Zhou Wang’s firmly.

A deal worth two hundred thousand!

Except for certain occasions where some shareholders deliberately create a clamor, even in BSK, a top-tier nightclub, this is a rarity.

Though the manager was enthusiastic, there was still a layer of meaning in his words...

The drinks are here, but payment is needed upfront.

Zhou Wang didn’t find it hard to understand, after all, even buying a case of 300-yuan beer, one has to pay first in a nightclub, so he cheerfully handed over his credit card.

After the manager entered the amount, he intended for Zhou Wang to enter his PIN, but the credit card he couldn’t recognize merely let out a ”beep,” and the transaction receipt was instantly printed, showing successful payment, making the manager gaze at Zhou Wang with even more awe.

A two hundred thousand transaction, and it’s ”small amount, no PIN”?

Whoa...

”Xiao Bo, make sure to take good care of Mr. Zhou... If Mr. Zhou needs anything else, come to me.”

The yellow-haired youth standing aside with a smile immediately understood upon hearing this.

In such nightclubs, the truly top-tier resources are in the manager’s hands...

However, Xiao Bo glanced at Qu Peining sitting in the booth, thinking there’s no way Mr. Zhou would be interested in the so-called ”top-tier” often hanging around BSK.

The arrival of the manager and others also disrupted the previously tense atmosphere between Zhou Wang and Qu Peining. As someone who never rushes matters, Zhou Wang didn’t continue pressing Qu Peining.

He glanced at the drinks on the table, aside from the complimentary beers and soft drinks, the actual ”hard goods” were just three types.

A bottle of Martell Cohiba, priced at 79,800 at BSK, a bottle of Remy Martin Louis XIII, priced at 59,800, and a ”Divine Dragon Set” containing six different colored Armand de Brignac champagnes, priced at 88,888.

All together, it added up to over two hundred thousand, just meeting Zhou Wang’s requirement. Of course, he got a discount when he paid, ending up charging exactly two hundred thousand.

”Which one do you want to drink?”

Zhou Wang smiled at Qu Peining as if the earlier awkwardness never existed.

”I...”

Qu Peining intended to say she wouldn’t drink, but at that moment Zhou Wang continued:

”Didn’t you say we can be friends? Let’s start with this drink.”

Zhou Wang’s step back made it impossible for Qu Peining to refuse. She glanced at the drinks on the table, hesitated and pointed at the Martell Cohiba.

”Then... this one.”

Qu Peining couldn’t tell the difference between champagne and foreign whiskey; it’s just that the flashy packaging of Armand de Brignac made her subconsciously dislike it.

Besides, with six bottles of Armand de Brignac, Qu Peining figured the two of them couldn’t finish it, might as well have the single bottle...

Zhou Wang chuckled; Qu Peining made a good choice. Although both Martell and Louis XIII are 40 degrees, Martell is smoother, meaning it’s easier to get drunk on this wine.

But considering it was Qu Peining’s first time with foreign whiskey, Zhou Wang instructed Xiao Bo to mix it with a soft drink.

While Xiao Bo was busy mixing, the lights on the bar’s DJ booth suddenly dimmed.

This usually signaled a change in the performing guest.

Xiao Bo, busy mixing drinks, loudly declared, ”Mr. Zhou, the previous performance was just a warm-up; now is the most exciting time of the night. Today we invited one of the top domestic DJs, who’s currently very popular in the scene. Don’t know if you’ve heard of her...”

Top DJ?

Listening to Xiao Bo’s introduction, Zhou Wang just smiled.

He was an outsider, unsure of how much weight such a title carried, but it didn’t matter, just listen for fun.

”It’s Party time, everybody, let’s have some noise, please welcome... DJ, Jiang Mubai!”

At that moment, the dim microphone sound was followed by the spotlight instantly lighting up the DJ booth before Zhou Wang, amidst countless screams, a coolly dressed, slender figure appeared on the DJ booth.

”Hello friends from Peng City, I am Jiang Mubai!”

The girl picked up the microphone, said a sentence with a slightly enticing voice, then improvised some dance moves, causing another round of screams.

Seeing a ”familiar face” unexpectedly, Zhou Wang was taken aback.

Damn, is Jiang Mubai some kind of fixed refresh NPC? Why does it feel like I run into you every time I visit a nightclub...

The girl’s outfit was as bold as ever, making Zhou Wang almost unable to distinguish if the bit of black fabric draped on her upper body was outerwear...
