Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Aren’t You Asking Too Many Questions?

"Well... alright, I won’t disturb you during your meal."

The Night Color General Manager bowed his head, a pleasing smile hanging on his face.

Seeing that Chen Dashan remained silent, he continued, "Thanks to Mr. Chen’s care recently, Night Color has reached its current state; on behalf of all our staff, I thank Mr. Chen."

After speaking, the Night Color General Manager respectfully saluted Chen Dashan.

The group of subordinates behind him bowed uniformly, creating a magnificent scene.

After giving thanks, the hotel owner and his entourage exited the room.

As the group left, a series of horrified looks fell upon Chen Dashan, and nobody spoke. The room fell silent instantly.

Wu Tian wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Damn, this is so embarrassing!

The key is, it allowed that bastard Chen Dashan to show off again.

"This is all your fault, Zhang Gui. You knew full well Dashan was doing big business, yet you kept it from us. You should drink three cups as punishment later," someone said, breaking the awkward silence.

While speaking, he stealthily observed Chen Dashan’s attitude, noticing that Dashan wasn’t angry.

Someone continued, "Dashan is impressive now, eh? This Maserati he bought, isn’t it the only one in Furong County?"

"Yes, Dashan is so low-key. None of us classmates knew what he actually does."

"To think that the owner of Night Color would salute Dashan."

"We’re all classmates; I’m genuinely happy for you!"

The crowd around Chen Dashan chattered endlessly.

Each of them carefully vying for favor, Wu Tian watched, fury churning inside him. How dare this bumpkin steal his thunder?

But now, Chen Dashan seemed different from before, his entire presence was not one to be trifled with.

Nobody even gave Wu Tian a glance, leaving him in the corner. Frustrated, he stood up, his chair noisily clacking, yet still, no one paid him any attention.

Chen Dashan was indifferent to these classmates; if not for Zhang Gui’s invitation, he wouldn’t have wanted to come.

Feeling a burning gaze, Chen Dashan turned his head to see Fei Wan looking at him with a flirtatious smile, her brightly smiling eyes indicating she was quite happy.

Today, Fei Wan was dressed in a white dress, made of linen, and rather loose-fitting. With her height nearly at one meter seventy and her fair skin, the dress lent her an artistic air.

It must be said, she was quite charismatic.

Her black hair draped over her shoulders, and her features were exquisitely beautiful.

Having lived in society for many years, how could anyone not understand those little things between men and women?

Seeing the strange glances between the two, someone immediately suggested, "Wasn’t Dashan and Fei Wan desk mates before? Why don’t you two sit together now? When Wu Tian comes back, we can switch back if it’s not too late."

"Indeed, desk mates must have a lot to catch up on."

The crowd egged them on.

Chen Dashan didn’t refuse, his eyes on Fei Wan as if she were prey. In high school, he had pursued Fei Wan for three full years. Fei Wan neither refused nor did she stop enjoying the adulation of others.

This kind of woman, Chen Dashan thought with a cold laugh.

"I actually do have something to discuss with Dashan!"

Fei Wan stood up, her voice coquettish, casting affectionate glances at Chen Dashan before sitting in Zhang Gui’s place. The crowd exchanged knowing looks, cleverly gathered together to talk.

Leaving Chen Dashan and Fei Wan a chance.

"Dashan, after so many years, I honestly didn’t expect you to have made it this big," she said confidently, her teeth shining as she smiled.

This smile had fascinated Dashan during his adolescence, but now all he saw was undeniable desire.

Dashan remained silent, and Fei Wan continued, "I know, the new elite of the old city area that’s been in the spotlight recently must be you, right?"

"This red Maserati, it must belong to the Liu Family’s young mistress. There’s only this one in Furong County, are all the Liu Family’s businesses in your hands?"

Fei Wan bent down to ask.

Her heart felt even more sour; she never expected the man she once looked down upon to have fared so well, to the point where she couldn’t reach him.

"Aren’t you asking a bit too much?"

Dashan spoke faintly.

Fei Wan was taken aback, she hadn’t expected Dashan to have this attitude, back when they were in school...

Fei Wan lowered her head and bit her lip, after a long pause, she said mournfully, "Dashan, is there something you could help me with?"

As she spoke, she looked up at Dashan with a pitiful expression.

"During the years I’ve been married to Wu Tian, his family’s business has been declining day by day. Not to mention now, his business faces ruthless suppression from competitors, and he’s also having financial difficulties; soon he won’t even be able to repay loans. I know you’re in control of the Liu Family’s assets; helping me would just take a word from you."

"But why should I help you?"

Dashan interrupted directly.

Fei Wan’s beautiful eyes stared at Dashan in disbelief. After a moment, she lowered her head and bit her lip, her voice filled with sorrow, "You’ve changed!"

"You wouldn’t have been like this before; I’ve always thought you were the kindest person in the world to me."

Fei Wan was earnest and convincing, a temptation any ordinary man would find hard to withstand.

Dashan sneered, "If I was so good before, then why did you choose Wu Tian over me? I refuse to believe you didn’t know about the things Wu Tian did against me back in the day."

"And back then, you knew how much I loved you, yet you chose to provoke me by sleeping with Wu Tian. Do you know how I felt at that time?"

"Wu Tian never ceased to humiliate me. Tell me, why should I help you?"

Dashan sneered as he spoke.

After finishing, he picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip, showing an attitude of indifference toward Fei Wan.

Fei Wan was anxious; Dashan was the only one who could help her now. She didn’t want to miss the opportunity, especially with Wu Tian’s family on the brink of bankruptcy and herself likely to suffer the consequences.

"I...I, I will repay you!"

"I’ll be grateful to you for a lifetime!"

Fei Wan clung to the corner of Dashan’s clothes, looking coy; in high school, when Fei Wan didn’t want to do her homework, this was her Killing Move on Dashan.

Dashan looked coldly at Fei Wan’s hands, and said sternly, "Fei Wan, let’s get one thing clear, I’m no longer the lapdog I used to be, at your beck and call; what kind of woman can’t I have?"

"Such small favors, sorry, they won’t move me!"

After saying that, Dashan got up and left.

Fei Wan watched Dashan’s retreating figure, her eyebrows knitted together. After pondering for a moment, she got up and followed him.

...

In the hallway on the first floor of the hotel.

Fei Wan, in her high heels, clattered after Dashan, "Dashan, wait for me!"

"What exactly would it take for you to help?"

"Can’t you see my sincerity? Everything from the past is over. What else can I do?"

Fei Wan followed behind Dashan, continuously explaining.

Dashan suddenly halted, turned around, and his gaze fell on Fei Wan’s prominent chest, "The things you mentioned indeed seem trivial to me."

"But Fei Wan, where is your sincerity?"
