Chapter 789: Chapter 789 It’s really wonderful

Shi Yaoguang’s tone when she asked that question was clearly frivolous.

It was as if she was looking at trash and asking, "What serious matter could you possibly have to discuss with me since you do nothing all day?"

Fan Yanshu felt humiliated once again.

But he couldn’t do anything to Shi Yaoguang.

So he could only try his best to suppress the anger in his heart and said nonchalantly, "I want to discuss a business proposition with you."

"A proposition?"

Shi Yaoguang looked at him evaluatively once again, and then responded with a tone of regret, "There are too many people who want to collaborate with me, and I don’t think we’re quite suitable."

Hearing this, he felt choked with anger again.

This woman...

This woman!

She was really too much!

As soon as he found the opportunity, he would make her pay!

Shi Yaoguang glanced at him sideways, "Mr. Fan, what’s with that expression? You wouldn’t be cursing me in your heart, would you?"

"Whether we can collaborate or not, isn’t there a saying? Business not concluded, good will remains..."

Fan Yanshu didn’t want to listen to her go on and immediately said with a cold face, "Enough! I truly have the intention of collaborating with you. If you’re not interested, just reject me directly. There’s no need to mock me like this!"

"Mocking?"

Shi Yaoguang showed a look of sudden realization, "Mr. Fan, so this is how you view me. By associating with me, you think that I am mocking you, is that it?"

As she spoke, she shook her head in regret, "It’s often said, ’we cannot plot together if we are not on the same path.’"

"Since Mr. Fan, this is how you view me, then... I suppose there’s no need for us to meet again."

After saying this, she turned and left without any hesitation.

Fan Yanshu watched her resolute departure, his eyes filled with dark clouds.

If he had known she was this heartless, he wouldn’t have tied his own hands in the first place.

Fortunately, it wasn’t too late.

As long as he played his cards right, he still had a chance.

Thinking of his ultimate plan, a sense of superiority and smugness couldn’t help but show in Fan Yanshu’s eyes.

He believed that he would definitely succeed!

Once Shi Yaoguang completely submitted to him, he would definitely make her regret it!

He would show her who truly held the power!

Shi Yaoguang, however, had no idea about the daydreams Fan Yanshu was having.

She had more important things to do now; why would she have the spare time to bother with him?

Fan Yanshu didn’t try to stop Shi Yaoguang from leaving; instead, he conversed with his System in his mind.

He got something on credit from the System.

It was something that Conquerors would occasionally buy.

And why only occasionally?

Because...

Such things were only used in specific worlds.

In normal worlds, people possess normal thinking.

Apart from a few who are brainless, most people still have their own thoughts.

The bizarre notion of two women sharing one man for love is, after all, rare.

Fan Yanshu hadn’t originally planned to use such methods to conquer Shi Yaoguang.

In his view, although Shi Yaoguang’s fame had grown somewhat, it was just a little fame after all.

Though official recognition of things like the Yaoguang Flower had helped elevate her status,

he didn’t believe this was solely her own doing.

Perhaps Quan Jinbei had helped?

Besides that,

even if it wasn’t Quan Jinbei, there would be other possibilities.

Ultimately, it’s not something a woman could accomplish on her own.

Therefore, according to his thinking, as long as he performed well, he could attract her undivided attention.

One or two encounters made him realize something clear.

And that is...

Shi Yaoguang wasn’t as easy to conquer as he had imagined.

Once he realized this, his confidence had almost completely eroded away.

In the end, he made a decision.

That was...

to give up an earnest conquest.

There was no way he could be earnest—Shi Yaoguang, that woman, simply had no heart.

Although he could now be fairly certain that the gold-digger persona she had shown was deliberately created to confuse him.

But this did not serve any purpose other than to prove she was even harder to conquer than he had originally thought!

Because of this.

He decided to switch tactics.

If freeloading didn’t work, surely spending money would, right?

Thinking of the points he had accumulated from his previous missions, which were enough to exchange for a tool, he gritted his teeth and went to the System to make the exchange.

With this tool, he believed that taking down Shi Yaoguang would be a piece of cake!

His current worry was figuring out how he should enjoy himself after he had captured her.

How could he reclaim the face she had made him lose, in a way that would leave him feeling satisfied?

Luckily, Shi Yaoguang was unaware of his daydreaming here.

Otherwise...

After the founding of the nation, eunuchs created by human hands became a rarity, except for unforeseen events.

To satisfy human curiosity, he could definitely contribute a little effort to let everyone know what a eunuch was like.

...

When Shi Yaoguang got home, she was greeted by Quan Jinbei’s probing gaze.

"Did Fan Yanshu look for you again?"

The sour tone was enough to reveal someone’s mood.

Shi Yaoguang’s eyes darted, and she clicked her tongue, "Why don’t you say, Quan Feifei..."

Quan Jinbei didn’t want to hear her go on, so he stretched out his hand to wrap around her waist and pulled her into his embrace, lowering his head to kiss her.

This move was completed in one swift action, so fast that Shi Yaoguang didn’t even have time to react.

After the kiss, she leaned against his chest and said in a teasing tone, "Can’t you handle it already?"

Quan Jinbei clenched his teeth and reached towards her ticklish spot with a somewhat threatening air: "Are you provoking me?"

Shi Yaoguang blinked innocently, "How am I provoking you?"

"Heh," Quan Jinbei snorted and leaned in close to her ear, lowering his voice, "Whether you’re provoking me or not, I’ve been provoked by you."

Shi Yaoguang blinked and protested, "That doesn’t seem quite right, does it?"

A grown man, can he not be so easily provoked!

Doesn’t he care about his pride?

Quan Jinbei didn’t care, "In the end, you’re the one who begs for mercy, saying you can’t take it anymore."

Shi Yaoguang: "..."

Having realized his implication, Shi Yaoguang’s face turned beet red.

Looking at him, her eyes also held a trace of grievance, "What do you mean by that?"

Quan Jinbei shrugged, "I said you’re the one who started it."

"I did not!" Shi Yaoguang refused to admit, "IF I said anything, isn’t it because you’re holding a grudge about Fan Yanshu looking for me?"

"After all, it’s just a tit for tat, what’s there for you to be angry about?"

Quan Jinbei nodded seriously, "You’re right, so I’m not angry."

Shi Yaoguang gave him a complex look, focusing on his hand that laid across her waist and kept tightening, she grinded her teeth, "This is you not being angry?"

Quan Jinbei spoke firmly, "No."

A moment later, he added, "This is our couple’s playful intimacy."

Shi Yaoguang: "..."

She was at a loss for words.

Thinking about it, this so-called couple’s playfulness was quite a double standard.

In favorable circumstances, it could be joys of fish and water, passion at its peak.

Sometimes, it turned into a "punishment" practice, making the other beg for mercy, intriguing and suggestive.

Really quite clever.
