Chapter 227: Chapter 227 I am his backer! Fifth update

The woman’s words left Chen Wei stunned for a full three seconds.

He turned to look; there was no one behind him, nor any lost pet dog or cat.

So he could be certain that the woman was indeed talking to him.

However, to be on the safe side, Chen Wei preferred to confirm it once more and asked, "Are you talking to me?"

"Who else? Do you think I am talking to the air? My time is limited, so give me an answer quickly. If you think the money is not enough, I can add more."

"If you perform well, I won’t rule out raising the price later on. How much you can get depends on how much you’re willing to give, how happy you can make me, understand?" the woman said, propping her face with her hand—Chen Wei’s face was one she could never tire of admiring.

Always a millennium at a glance.

"Let me ask one more thing, what do you mean by ’pet’?"

"You don’t know? Or are you pretending to be ignorant to catch my attention? Honestly, I don’t like ’dumb and sweet’ type men," the woman replied bluntly, "In the most straightforward language you can understand, it’s essentially ’kept man’."

Kept man...

This indeed matched exactly with what Chen Wei had in mind.

"Sorry, but I have no interest in being a kept man. You should find someone else," Chen Wei continued his meal.

"What? Is the money not enough? How about 1.5 million a month? You don’t need to spend the whole day with me, just come over when I need you," the woman didn’t believe Chen Wei truly didn’t want to be a kept man—it was just about the money.

The reason she was patiently haggling with Chen Wei was simple: he indeed had the capital to keep her interested.

"Really, no need," Chen Wei said with a forced smile, starting to find the woman annoying.

"My surname is Zheng, Zheng Gaolan. You should’ve heard of me, I’m the chairwoman of Gaolan Construction Co., Ltd.—Gaolan Construction Company is mine."

"If you’re not aware of this, then maybe you know the fifth-ranked woman in River City’s wealth list? By being with me, not only could you gain wealth, but also power. I can give you everything you want," the woman persisted.

This time, Chen Wei simply ignored her. He thought it better to cut another piece of meat and put it in his mouth.

One second...

Two seconds...

Ten seconds passed.

Seeing that Chen Wei still didn’t reply, Zheng Gaolan was infuriated.

Bang!

She slammed her hand on the table, attempting to intimidate Chen Wei.

Initially thinking he was seriously considering, she hadn’t expected Chen Wei to actually treat her as if she were thin air.

"Give me an answer, quickly!"

"I have already given it, it’s just that you refuse to accept it," Chen Wei said, looking helpless.

"Fine, very well! Two million, two million a month, that’s several times over the market rate. I hope you won’t fail to recognize a good deal when you see one!"

There’s a market rate for this?

Chen Wei felt it necessary to thank Zheng Gaolan because she had indeed broadened his horizons.

"No need." To prevent any further misunderstandings from Zheng Gaolan, Chen Wei was quite firm in his refusal this time.

"Are you sure you want to refuse me? With my connections, influence, and power in River City, destroying someone like you would be far too easy. You’d better think carefully before making your decision!" Zheng Gaolan’s voice grew increasingly severe.

"Sigh..." Chen Wei sighed, put down his cutlery, and turned to face Zheng Gaolan.

Zheng Gaolan’s face lit up with joy, believing that Chen Wei was finally determined to cough up the money and become her pet. But what she received instead was, "I have absolutely no interest in becoming your pet, not for ten million, not even for a hundred million. Do you understand?"

"As for whether or not you want to ruin me, it’s up to you. I couldn’t care less. Either way works for me."

"How dare you speak to me like this! You think I really wouldn’t dare?" Zheng Gaolan fumed with rage. "Don’t think that just because you have a bit of good looks you can act arrogant in front of me. I’ve seen plenty of people like you. Compared to us, the real elites of society, you are nothing. Absolutely nothing! Understand?"

Chen Wei realized this woman was quite impervious to reason.

He picked up his knife and fork again and continued to savour the food.

"You’ve got guts! Tell me your name, who is your backer!" Zheng Gaolan wanted to see who had given Chen Wei the confidence to disrespect her so.

"Do you seek me?" A voice suddenly rang out.

"Who... ah! President Su!" Zheng Gaolan’s eyes widened dramatically, nearly falling off her stool in fright. She quickly grabbed the table to steady herself. "President Su, what... What brings you here?"

"Weren’t you looking for me?" Su Yumei continued to ask.

"Looking for you? I wasn’t looking for you, you must be mistaken," Zheng Gaolan hadn’t recovered from her shock.

"I am his backer," Su Yumei said, glancing at Chen Wei.

Zheng Gaolan’s gaze flitted back and forth between Chen Wei and Su Yumei, terrified.

"Have you got something to say to me? Speak, I have time now," Su Yumei sat down, exuding a queen’s domineering aura.

In her presence, Zheng Gaolan was as timid as a rabbit, trembling slightly, barely able to make a sound, at risk of being scared to death at any moment.

"Why are you silent now? Weren’t you fierce and aggressive just a moment ago, eager to devour him?" Su Yumei’s tone, even her expression, became a few degrees colder, urging her on.

"President Su, I... I didn’t mean it, I wouldn’t dare. I was wrong, I beg you, please don’t lower yourself to contend with someone like me," Zheng Gaolan pleaded.

"Garbage? Didn’t you just say that, with your strength and connections, it would be easy for you to destroy him in River City?"

Su Yumei made a beckoning gesture, "Come on, I’ll give you a chance. Destroy him."

The pressure emanating from her became stronger.

Zheng Gaolan eventually couldn’t withstand it and fell to her knees, "President Su, I really know I was wrong, please, forgive me, just let me go..."

Her voice was thick with the urge to cry, and if this continued, she might actually break into tears.

Even... wet herself...

"Wei, what do you plan to do?" Su Yumei left the decision to Chen Wei.

"It’s not worth wasting emotions or energy on this kind of person. Just let her leave," Chen Wei never bothered to stoop to Zheng Gaolan’s level from the beginning.

Otherwise, with his capabilities, dealing with Zheng Gaolan would be a simple matter. Why would he need Su Yumei to intervene?

It just happened that Su Yumei had returned at the perfect time.

"Didn’t you hear what he said? Get lost now!" Su Yumei shouted.

"Alright! I’ll go! I’m leaving now!" Zheng Gaolan did not dare to stay longer, quickly getting up and running off, disappearing into the crowd.

If she had known Chen Wei was Su Yumei’s person, she would never have come to so embarrassingly humiliate herself.

"It seems that from now on, I’ll have to stick to you like glue. To those women, you’re more tempting than any exotic delicacy," Su Yumei concluded.

She absolutely couldn’t let Chen Wei, this delicate flower, be defiled by those brutes!

The chastity of my junior, protected by me, Su Yumei!
