Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right?

Chapter 1708: Chapter 635: Received Her Special Reward

Zhang Lihua nodded, shy and delighted. ”It’s not just that you did great just now, you did even better last night!”

”At least half the customers tonight came specifically to see you, this big shot, and from now on no one will dare come to our restaurant looking for trouble. Tsk tsk, all thanks to my man!”

As she spoke, Zhang Lihua actually took the initiative to give Zhang Jingdong a quick kiss.

Zhang Jingdong suddenly understood. ”So that’s what’s going on. Looks like my move last night really did the job of killing one to warn a hundred.”

”Nice. That way, when you start doing other projects in the county in the future, those blind idiots won’t dare come make trouble in front of you either.”

”Of course. Who in the county doesn’t know my man is someone even Wang Ye doesn’t dare mess with? They don’t dare mess with Wang Ye, so they’ll be even more scared to mess with your woman.”

Seeing how happy Zhang Lihua was, a trace of genuine joy flashed in Zhang Jingdong’s eyes as well.

The whole point of a man getting stronger, sometimes, is just so the woman he loves has someone to rely on, has confidence.

He reached out and pinched Lihua’s delicate chin. ”Since I performed so well, that little reward just now isn’t enough, is it?”

Zhang Lihua shot him a sultry sideways glance. ”Then this time... can we change the way?”

Zhang Jingdong was dazzled by that flirtatious look, then nodded. ”Sure, let’s see if you’ve made any progress in that area.”

”Congratulations, Host, for successfully completing instruction in a special environment. Reward: 500,000 yuan!”

Ten minutes later or so, Zhang Jingdong’s cellphone suddenly rang.

He took out his cellphone and glanced at it.

It was Liu Yang calling.

He gave Zhang Lihua a ”keep going” look, then picked up. ”Hey, President Yang?”

”Jingdong, are we going to that get-together tonight or not? Wu Shang just messaged me again.”

Thinking of Wu Jianguo, Zhang Jingdong said, ”We’re going. This is our first reunion since graduation—who knows when the next one will be, we have to go!”

Hearing that Zhang Jingdong finally agreed, Liu Yang was instantly happy. ”Okay, I’ll reply to him now. When you’re done, just let me know. I’m at home, I can head out anytime.”

”Okay, I’ll swing by and pick you up in a bit.”

After hanging up, Zhang Jingdong felt that, as Wu Shang’s ”grand-aunt,” Zhang Lihua was doing a great job, so he rewarded her with a bottle of Life One.

The two of them snuggled and fooled around for a while longer, then Zhang Jingdong went downstairs feeling utterly content and left Lihua Restaurant.

When he was almost at the coal mine family housing compound, he called Liu Yang.

Not long after, when he arrived downstairs at Liu Yang’s building, Liu Yang happened to be coming down too.

Zhang Jingdong waved at him. ”Get in the car!”

Liu Yang immediately jumped down from the steps, came around the front of the car, and hopped in smoothly.

At that moment, Zhang Jingdong gave Liu Yang a thorough once-over, then stared straight at him. ”Something’s off with you.”

Liu Yang panicked a little. ”What... I got something on my face?”

Jingdong shook his head with a grin. ”There’s nothing dirty on your face, but there should be something extra in your heart.”

”Something extra in my heart...” Liu Yang blinked quickly. ”Jingdong, what are you even talking about? I’m not getting you.”

Seeing that this kid was denying it, Zhang Jingdong leaned over and sniffed, then said, ”You’ve still got a woman’s scent on you. Be honest—what’ve you been up to these last couple of days when I wasn’t with you?”

Inwardly Liu Yang was thinking, these last few days you’ve been with Hu Ling, then that gorgeous boss at Lihua Restaurant, then the School Beauty Song... I should be the one interrogating you.

But he really did feel a bit guilty.

Because Zhang Jingdong had guessed right.

He held out for a few more seconds, then finally couldn’t take it and threw up his hands. ”Okay, fine, I admit it. I actually... started a little romance too.”

”Mainly because these days you’ve been with the School Beauty Song and...”

At this point Liu Yang suddenly realized that Zhang Jingdong was his boss now, he had to save the guy some face.

So he quickly changed tack. ”As they say, rather than standing by the deep waters envying the fish, better to turn around and weave your own net, so I thought I’d give it a try too.”

Jingdong chuckled. ”I knew it, you definitely had something going on. Do I know her?”

”You do, she’s from our class.”

”Our class? Who?”

”Liu Di.”

Zhang Jingdong quickly searched his memory. Vaguely he recalled that although she wasn’t much in the looks department, her figure was pretty good, and at the time she’d been the class discipline committee member.

Back then he and Liu Yang often chatted during self-study and had been caught by her several times.

He hadn’t expected the two of them to get together now.

Jingdong was sure this definitely hadn’t happened in his previous life, so he asked curiously, ”How’d you two end up connecting?”

Liu Yang, unusually, looked a bit embarrassed. ”Yesterday when I was going upstairs I bumped myself by accident, so I went to the pharmacy to buy some Yunnan Baiyao, and I just happened to run into her.”

”Even though back in class, when she was the discipline committee member, she caught the two of us a few times, we’ve graduated now, and we’re still classmates, so I chatted with her for a bit.”

”Then while we were talking we realized we’re actually at the same university, and even on the same campus. Her dorm and our dorm are only one building apart!”

”Honestly, Brother Dong, this is thanks to you. If you hadn’t set the example, I never would’ve thought about talking to her in that direction.”

”After we finished chatting yesterday, we exchanged numbers and WhatsApp, and then last night we chatted on WhatsApp half the night.”

”This morning I asked her out to walk around the park, and we talked about all sorts of things... overall it all feels pretty good.”
