Super Tycoon: I Beg You, Stop Pulling Stunts

Chapter 310: Chapter 227: I’ve Never Seen Such a Shameless Person

Zhou Luan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. She reached out and pulled him back. ”Just kidding! Come back! Would I really rip you off? The most I’d do is make you foot the bill.”

Lin Chu could see it now. Zhou Luan was a natural-born PUA master.

’But she had finally met her match.’

Kang Hao gave her a meek look, sighed, and sat back down. ”You invite me to dinner, but you’re making me pay, and you brought a friend? Zhou Xiaoluan, you’re too much of a bully.”

To put it nicely, his tone was gentle. To be blunt, it was effeminate. Lin Chu was truly at a loss for words.

’I’m the one who wants to puke!’

’I can’t stand it.’

”How am I bullying you? I, Zhou Luan, the number one beauty in Peng City, invited you to dinner. I’m giving you so much face! And this gentleman, the Daniel Wu of Peng City, is personally gracing us with his presence to mooch a meal... so what’s wrong with you picking up the tab?”

Zhou Luan gave him a playfully reproachful look.

Kang Hao: ”...”

He ran a hand through his hair and sighed again. ”Fine, fine, fine. Go ahead and order. I’ll pay, I’ll pay... I should’ve just stayed home to play video games.”

Zhou Luan: ”Deal. In that case, waiter! A bottle of Yamazaki 25.”

Kang Hao’s eyes suddenly went wide.

”No!”

”Soju is fine!”

Zhou Luan stared directly at him. ”See? This is why you can’t win over An’an. How can a grown man be so stingy? Order it!”

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but glance at Lin Chu.

’I feel like laughing again.’

’The last time Lin Chu asked An Yunzhi out to dinner, An’an obviously didn’t go. Why would she?’

Kang Hao looked at her, exasperated. He felt embarrassed that Zhou Luan was saying these things in front of Lin Chu, but he was long used to her style. ”All right, all right, order it. But you two can drink it. I’m not having any. I have a raid to run when I get back tonight.”

”Not allowed!”

”You have to drink!”

”After this, we’re hitting the bars for round two! My treat!”

It was as if Zhou Luan was doing this on purpose, putting on a show for Lin Chu. ’See? See how high my social status is? I’m usually already being very generous with you.’

This wasn’t a professional setting, so her true nature was once again on full display.

Kang Hao was genuinely spineless. Instead of getting angry, he just gave a weak wave of his hand. ”Sigh... you’re so annoying. Fine, hold on. I need to call a power-leveler.”

He started making a call.

Having seen so many business gatherings lately, full of people chasing fame and fortune, Lin Chu’s first thought upon seeing such a zen kid was—’His parents must be tearing their hair out.’

’This kid is a lost cause.’

’But on second thought, with a family fortune of over thirty billion, even a fraction of it would be enough for him to live a carefree and happy life.’

’How much money could he possibly spend on video games?’

’As long as the shares and assets remain, he could live off the interest and never starve.’

’Damn...’

’So this is what a true young master, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, is like.’

’He has everything without ever having to fight or compete for it.’

’And he’s still chasing after An Yunzhi?’

’Right.’

’For kids from a family like his, marriage will most likely be with someone of equal social standing.’

’Database plus one.’

’Core objective for tonight’s dinner: accomplished.’

The drinks arrived.

All sorts of sashimi, fried dishes, and sushi rolls arrived as well.

The three of them ate, drank, and chatted.

Kang Hao was still a little confused about why they wanted to see him, but since Lin Chu didn’t bring it up, he didn’t dare to ask.

He didn’t really think much of Lin Chu anyway.

”Should we call An’an to join us for drinks later?”

After a sip of his drink, he looked at Zhou Luan and asked hesitantly.

The two girls were like conjoined twins. He knew perfectly well that he held no place in An Yunzhi’s heart, but Zhou Luan’s influence was immense. One word from her, and An’an would definitely come.

Then again, the way Zhou Luan did things was often outrageous.

’Why not invite her to dinner, but invite her out for drinks afterward?’

”You want to invite her?”

”Then you’ll have to beg me.”

Zhou Luan looked at him with a smirk, batting her eyelashes.

Kang Hao: ”If I beg you, will you call her?”

”Depends on my mood. But if you don’t beg, I definitely won’t.”

Listening to their conversation, Lin Chu once again felt a wave of exasperation.

’What is this childish, pointless bullshit!’

’I seriously want to smack both of you.’

”Fine, I’m begging you. Please call her. I haven’t seen her in days, and she won’t even reply to my texts. Heh, unbelievable. An Yunzhi’s treating me like a total bootlicker.”

”What’s that got to do with me? It’s just because my dad mentioned something last time he had dinner with her dad, and she got mad about it.”

Zhou Luan let out a laugh like tinkling bells.

”An’an told me she’s only ever thought of you as a little brother, so just give it up. Why don’t you chase me instead? I might consider it. There’s probably a 0.5% chance of success, right? With her, it’s a hard zero.”

Kang Hao: ”...”

”Oh, get out of here! Stop messing with me.”

GULP.

He chugged another big mouthful of his drink, and a blush immediately spread across his pale face.

”Go on and call her,” Lin Chu suddenly said with a smile. ”I haven’t seen her in a few days either.”

Kang Hao: ”?”

Zhou Luan shot Lin Chu a glare and snorted. ”You can forget about it, player. Why would I invite my best friend to go drinking with you?”

Before, Lin Chu might have gotten angry hearing that.

But now, he couldn’t care less.

”Fine, I’ll invite someone else then. Drinking with just the three of us is no fun. I got Li Ke’er’s WeChat last time. She’s a celebrity. I’ll ask her to come over and sing and dance for us.”

With that, Lin Chu took out his phone.

Zhou Luan... was dumbfounded.

Kang Hao was also quite shocked.

At first, he thought Lin Chu and Zhou Luan had something going on, and that’s why they’d arrived together.

He never expected... that now...

’This guy is so ballsy.’

’Like a total meathead.’

Now, he was actually starting to find this entertaining. It was rare to see Zhou Luan put in her place like this. He was also a bit curious about the celebrity Lin Chu had mentioned.

’Li Ke’er?’

’The name sounds familiar.’

Lin Chu paid no attention to their expressions and placed a voice call to Li Ke’er. ”What’re you up to? We’re going clubbing tonight.”

On the other end, Li Ke’er was a bit taken aback. ’This President Lin is really something else. He doesn’t even offer to buy a meal, just summons you straight to the party.’ But after a moment’s hesitation, she agreed.

’Since he asked, I have to go!’

’The entertainment industry is all about networking, isn’t it?’

”Okay! Where are you? I was just worrying about being alone in Peng City tonight with nothing to do,”

she said with a charming laugh.

Lin Chu laughed intentionally. ”I’ll tell you the details in a bit. Be ready. Oh, and wear something light. It gets hot in Peng City at night. I’d hate for you to get heatstroke.”

”Haha, you’re unbelievable. Alright, I’ll go get my makeup on then.”

He hung up the phone.

Lin Chu glanced casually at the other two, poured himself a drink, and took a small sip.

The atmosphere at the table grew slightly stiff and awkward.

Kang Hao instinctively sensed trouble and stood up. ”I’m just going to use the restroom.”

He made a quick escape.

He was scared.

’Zhou Luan is definitely about to blow a fuse.’

’But he even found it a little thrilling.’

’Lin Chu... what a legend!’

’A player?’

’A playboy?’

’Such smooth moves!’

After he left, Zhou Luan stared daggers at Lin Chu, visibly fuming.

”What do you think you’re doing?!”

”I’m the one who organized this!”

Lin Chu’s lips curved into a smirk. ”It’s fine. I can always start my own party. I asked you to invite An’an and you refused. I can’t just neglect my own needs, can I? Everyone has a few backups, right? You’re the one who said it: one for public, one for private.”

Zhou Luan: ”...”

’I was just talking big!’

’Just shooting my mouth off!’

’Who actually goes and does it like you?!’

But Lin Chu had her cornered with her own words, and for a moment, she was speechless.

”Then you guys go. I’m not going,”

she said, pouting.

”Oh, come on. Why not? It’s more fun to have fun together than alone. How about this? I’ll find you a handsome guy—a super-hot one, on the level of Jin Chengwu or Daniel Wu. Or we can just find someone at the bar. You just point out who you like, and I’ll go get his number, his WeChat... Hell, I’ll kidnap him and bring him here if that’s what it takes.”

Lin Chu said all this with an air of complete ease, perfectly in his element.

This was the power of his newfound clarity.

Openly a player.

Clearly a flirt.

Utterly unhinged.

Let’s get wild!

Whoever can’t keep up, loses.

Zhou Luan heaved a long sigh. ”I’m going to tell my dad on you! I’ll say you tried to take me to find a gigolo!”

Lin Chu: ”Fine. I’ll call your dad right now and tell him you *asked* me to take you to find a gigolo.”

With that, he took out his phone and acted like he was about to dial Zhou Ming’s number.

Zhou Luan instantly panicked. ’What’s wrong with this guy? Is there hair growing in his ears? That’s not what I said!’ she thought, lunging forward with flailing arms to snatch his phone.

Of course, Lin Chu hadn’t really dialed. He caught her hand and then suddenly gave her a light peck on the left cheek.

”Hey!”

”What are you doing!”

”Why are you shoving your face into my mouth? Trying to poison me with your makeup?”

Lin Chu yelped in mock protest after landing the peck.

Zhou Luan: ”?”

She froze as if she’d been turned to stone, staring at him in utter disbelief.

’I have never met such a shameless person.’

’Truly!’

’Never!’
