The King of Urban Mercenaries

367: Chapter 367 367: Chapter 367 “Lin Fei, you asshole!”

Inside a private room on the second floor of a high-end restaurant where Lin Fei and Gu Lanzi were, Gu Lanzi, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment and her body still tingling from Lin Fei’s forceful advances, shot him several fierce glares.

Although Gu Lanzi really needed Lin Fei’s help to invite the icy CEO Mu Shanshan to come out, she clearly hadn’t expected that asking Lin Fei for help would involve her getting entangled as well.

This deal was no longer just a loss.

It was a complete disaster!

“You’re not the first woman to call me an asshole, and you won’t be the last.

It’s not the first time you’ve cursed me out, nor will it be the last.”

Originally, Lin Fei hadn’t really intended to take advantage of Gu Lanzi, the powerful deputy leader.

After all, his initial interest had been in the two beautiful ministers, Shen Peini and Ling Weiwei.

However, Gu Lanzi had insisted on calling him over.

Lin Fei, having failed to enjoy an office romance, naturally sought to find a breakthrough with Gu Lanzi, this authoritative deputy leader.

“You’ve collected your interest, so hurry up and get your wife to come out.”

After all, Gu Lanzi had once gone to bed with Lin Fei for one reason or another, and as for Lin Fei taking advantage of her in the private room, Gu Lanzi wasn’t completely opposed to it.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Lin Fei to gain any advantage from her.

Now that the bullying had been done, and Lin Fei had taken all the advantages he could, Gu Lanzi clearly remembered why she had called him in the first place.

“Did I ever promise to help you invite my wife out?!”

“So, you’re saying you’re not planning to help me?!”

Seeing Lin Fei’s seemingly evasive demeanor, Gu Lanzi’s face, which still retained a flush of red, turned cold in an instant.

After all, as a deputy leader with real power in Zhonghai City, Gu Lanzi’s sudden change of mood still had a certain deterrent effect.

If Lin Fei really dared to bail on her today, one could imagine that Gu Lanzi would not hesitate to use her power to make Lin Fei pay a painful price!

“It was just a joke, why so serious?

I’ll call her out for you right away.”

Having noticed the deputy leader Gu Lanzi’s displeasure, Lin Fei knew better than to continue teasing the lady and immediately took out his phone to call his CEO wife, Mu Shanshan.

This was not to say that Lin Fei was afraid of Gu Lanzi, the deputy leader with authority.

After all, he was somebody who had roamed the foreign mercenary battlefields for years; a mere deputy leader would hardly cause Lin Fei to feel any fear.

In short, Lin Fei wasn’t afraid that Gu Lanzi would use her power to make him learn a painful lesson.

Rather, since he had already taken advantage of Gu Lanzi, the deputy leader with real power, he ought to really help the lady out with something concrete.

Even though aiding Gu Lanzi, that authoritative deputy leader, in inviting her CEO wife Mu Shanshan out for a meeting seemed a bit underhanded.

However, it was certainly better than Gu Lanzi getting upset and going directly to the icy CEO Mu Shanshan, to report him.

“Wife, help!”

After Mu Shanshan answered the phone, Lin Fei solemnly sent out a distress signal to his CEO wife.

“I’m very busy right now, if you have something to say, you’d better just get to the point!”

“It’s like this, I accidentally ate too much just now.”

“So?!”

“You know, your husband is broke.

So, you need to come over with some money to help me pay the bill.”

Mu Shanshan was silent for a dozen seconds on the other end of the phone, and Lin Fei could even imagine that the temperature in Mu Shanshan’s CEO office must have dropped because of his words.

Fortunately, Mu Shanshan, the ice queen CEO, did have some regard for Lin Fei, her husband on paper.

“Where?!”

“Knew you wouldn’t leave me in the lurch, wife.

I’ll send you the address, hurry over.”

With that, Lin Fei hung up and lowered his head to tinker with his phone to send the address to his CEO wife, Mu Shanshan.

Listening to the familiar, cool tone of Mu Shanshan’s voice from Lin Fei’s phone, and seeing that Lin Fei had successfully lured Mu Shanshan, the ice queen CEO, Gu Lanzi felt somewhat relieved.

Her gaze towards Lin Fei became inadvertently a bit more approving.

As for the Chen Zimo incident, whether it was a trap set by the Fang Family or something else, the bottom line was that the ice queen CEO Mu Shanshan had been mistakenly arrested, and that was a dereliction of duty by the Zhonghai police!

Had it been an ordinary person, naturally, it wouldn’t have been a big problem.

However, Mu Shanshan was the president of the Mu Group, and the rapid development of the Mu Group in recent years had contributed significantly to the financial revenue of the Zhonghai City Council.

Thus, when the Fang Family was investigated and fell from power, the deputy leader in charge of criminal matters in Zhonghai rushed to contact Mu Shanshan to apologize at the first opportunity.

Unfortunately, they were met with a not-so-small rebuff.

Moreover, the Mu Group also issued a public statement at the same time.

Although it did not directly condemn the Zhonghai City Council,

any discerning person could see that the Mu Group was dissatisfied with the Council to some extent because of the Chen Zimo incident.

The Mu Group, already a well-known enterprise in Zhonghai, with Mu Shanshan heralded as the revered business goddess of Zhonghai, faced a media storm unveiling the Chen Zimo incident.

Following the publication of the Mu Group’s statement, the Zhonghai City Council faced considerable public pressure.

In such a situation, Gu Lanzi, in charge of economic matters and who often interacted with Mu Shanshan, naturally took on the task of resolving the conflict between the Zhonghai City Council and the Mu Group.

Originally, to show sincerity, Gu Lanzi had planned to visit Mu Shanshan directly.

However, considering that her colleague had already been rejected by Mu Shanshan,

Worried she might receive the same treatment, Gu Lanzi first made a phone call to Mu Shanshan.

While the call did get through, the ice queen CEO clearly wasn’t easy to engage with, and she did not give Gu Lanzi any opportunity to arrange a meeting during their conversation.

Left with no choice, Gu Lanzi decided to turn her attention to Lin Fei.

Now, seeing that Lin Fei had successfully managed to arrange a meeting with Mu Shanshan, although at a cost that was embarrassing for her, Gu Lanzi admittedly felt some satisfaction with Lin Fei.

Alas, Gu Lanzi had ultimately overestimated Lin Fei.

Slap!

“What are you dazed about, hurry up and order the dishes.

I need to fill my belly to have the energy to dote on you, huh.”

Having sent the text to his CEO wife, Mu Shanshan, Lin Fei showed no understanding of what Gu Lanzi might be thinking.

Seeing that Gu Lanzi seemed to be in a daze, he promptly slapped the woman’s pert and plump backside…
