Chapter 659: Chapter 659: Young Director Wan

Wan Jinxin’s gaze swept up and down over Cui Ruyun’s figure, a peculiar expression flickering in his eyes.

Having encountered countless women, Wan Jinxin had never met one like Cui Ruyun before, a woman of such allure.

This woman, she was beguiling to the bone!

"I really didn’t expect Miss Cui’s Ziqidonglai business to be so large, for you to still participate in such a small competition as the Medicine and Food Contest."

"Oh, the real big business is Young Director Wan’s Jinhao Investment Bank. My Ziqidonglai Hotel can’t compare to you; at best, it’s just a small enterprise."

On Cui Ruyun’s face, only a symbolic smile appeared.

In fact, she usually couldn’t be bothered with the likes of Wan Jinxin, a flashy upstart type of person, not even giving him the courtesy of a smile.

Especially not in front of Chen Xuan!

Wan Jinxin, however, failed to notice Cui Ruyun’s cool demeanor, his face still radiating a smug, haughty look.

"Hahaha, actually, if Miss Cui’s Ziqidonglai really needs any investment, just give me a word."

"Based on our relationship, even if it means spending a fortune, Jinhao Investment Bank would invest in Miss Cui’s venture! Hahaha..."

Wan Jinxin spoke casually, acting as if he was in complete control.

The kind of man Cui Ruyun loathed the most was this self-righteous type.

She just couldn’t understand why, being men, some could make her admire them and irresistibly want to draw nearer, while others could induce sheer disgust from her with just the sound of their voice!

Cui Ruyun smiled dismissively, "We don’t accept undeserved rewards; our Ziqidonglai naturally wouldn’t want Jinhao Investment Bank to take such a risk. And furthermore..."

"And what?" Wan Jinxin pressed.

Before Cui Ruyun could speak, Chen Xuan coldly interjected, "What Ruyun means to say is, her relationship with you doesn’t seem to have reached such a level yet!"

Cui Ruyun glanced at Chen Xuan, a smile touching the corners of her mouth.

This man, he truly understood her heart!

Hearing Chen Xuan’s words, Wan Jinxin’s face immediately darkened.

His eyes filled with hostility, he retorted, "Who the hell are you? I’m talking to Miss Cui. It’s none of your business!"

This man dared to address Cui Ruyun as Ruyun. Their relationship was obviously not ordinary, which greatly annoyed Wan Jinxin.

The woman Wan Jinxin fancied was not to be touched by another man, let alone such an ordinary-looking, cheaply dressed loser!

Chen Xuan was about to speak when Cui Ruyun quickly stopped him, smiling at Wan Jinxin, "Young Director Wan, please calm down, my friend tends to speak bluntly, don’t take offense."

"If there’s nothing else, we’ll be going inside first!"

With that, Cui Ruyun didn’t say another word, linking arms with Chen Xuan and walked into the venue like a couple.

Watching their retreating figures, Wan Jinxin felt his teeth itch with hatred.

Daring to snatch the woman Wan Jinxin had set his sights on, and being disrespectful to him—Wan Jinxin could not let this go easily.

"Get me the details on this kid. I want to make sure he can’t walk away from this!"

"Yes, Young Director!" his subordinate replied.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Young Director Wan, there’s no need to check. I’m well aware of the kid’s background!"

Wan Jinxin turned his head and saw a figure with a beaming smile approaching him.

"I thought it was someone important, turns out it’s just Second Master Meng!"

Wan Jinxin’s face wore a trace of arrogance.

Though his Jinhao Investment Bank had only grown strong under his father’s leadership in the last decade or so, and somewhat lacked the heritage when compared to establishments like the century-old Meng Family Restaurant, Wan Jinxin still looked down on this so-called Second Master Meng.

Second Master Meng, what the hell, just a man who runs a restaurant!

"You just said you know all the ins and outs of that kid, how so, do you know him?"

Meng Yunde snorted coldly, "Know him? I know him too well! That kid, he’s Cui Ruyun’s lover!"

"What?!" Hearing this, Wan Jinxin’s face suddenly took on a ruthless look.

Indeed, as he had suspected, the woman he liked had really been touched by someone else!

And by such a no-account, penniless loser at that!

In Wan Jinxin’s eyes, this was a huge insult to a successful man like himself!

Seeing Wan Jinxin’s reaction, Meng Yunde’s heart filled with silent laughter.

In truth, he had overheard Wan Jinxin and Cui Ruyun’s conversation a moment ago.

Being a man himself, Meng Yunde was very clear on Wan Jinxin’s thoughts, which is why he was deliberately instigating him now.

And as Meng Yunde had expected, Wan Jinxin really fell for it.

Meng Yunde added fuel to the fire, saying, "I’ve already inquired about this surnamed Chen, he has no money, no background, and is supposedly living in a rental apartment right now; he is utterly worthless!"

"But this kid is quite cunning, who knows what kind of spell he cast on Miss Cui to have gained her favor."

"Having finally climbed into favor with a fair and wealthy lady like Miss Cui, this kid is acting like a dog guarding his food, treating Miss Cui as his own forbidden fruit, not allowing any man to come close! He even forbids talking to Miss Cui!"

"This guy, he’s like a toad lusting after swan meat, a petty man in triumph indeed!"

Hearing all this, the rage in Wan Jinxin’s heart flared even more.

"Damn it, I thought he was someone impressive, turns out he’s just a freeloader!" Wan Jinxin cursed angrily.

"Freeloading all the way to the woman I have my eye on, that is truly disgusting!"

Meng Yunde sighed and said in agreement, "Isn’t it just!"

"Young Director Wan, in my opinion, Miss Cui is now blinded by that kid’s sweet words, hence she’s so compliant with him, not realizing she’s fallen into a trap!"

"If you ask me, now’s the perfect chance for you to play the hero and come to her rescue, an excellent opportunity to show your worth!"

"If you can make Miss Cui come to her senses and see the truth about this poor kid, she will surely be grateful to you!"

"After that, if you wish to get closer to Miss Cui, it’ll be all too easy!"

Meng Yunde, well aware of Wan Jinxin’s feelings for Cui Ruyun, said these things to cater to his desires and entice Wan Jinxin further.

In the end, Wan Jinxin was indeed moved by Meng Yunde’s words, and an expression of smug satisfaction quickly spread across his face.

"You’re right, Miss Cui indeed needs my help!"

"In your opinion, what should I do next?"

These words were exactly what Meng Yunde wanted to hear.

Meng Yunde quickly said, "It’s quite simple, I’ve already had someone look into it, the reason Miss Cui brought that kid here is to take part in a culinary medicine competition!"
