I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!
Chapter 667: Taking the Bait

Chapter 667: Chapter 667: Taking the Bait

Lin Qi nodded her head to indicate it was no big deal, standing up there and talking to a man for a few minutes. What was such a big deal about that? She had made so much money; was she not allowed to have a few words with him? It didn’t really matter; to earn that money, one had to give something in return, and since the sacrifice was small, there was no problem. So, she let it be and allowed the person to come up.

He wasn’t Shen Dong, so there was even less reason for her to be nervous. Once she relaxed her mindset, she let the person come up. Mr. Lin also thought it was good; the girl seemed to be in a really good mood. He hoped that Mr. Zhang wouldn’t take a liking to her, as the two absolutely should not get entangled. Otherwise, a torturous romance was certain, especially seeing Lin Qi’s innocent gaze.

If the girl fell into it, it would definitely be over. Zhang Xu was definitely not a person to be trifled with. His family background was surely not simple. If he weren’t so rich, he couldn’t afford to spend every night entertaining here, flirting with one girl after another.

Thinking this, Mr. Lin could only hope he was overthinking, as these were not things he could control. So, he handed the microphone over to Lin Qi and stepped down, also inviting Mr. Zhang up. Now Mr. Zhang was really pleased and let himself go up first, not even knowing what type of personality the girl preferred.

Since she seemed so innocent, she probably liked someone who was more of a father figure as a boyfriend. Lin Qi hadn’t realized that the man below, who appeared calm, was actually full of inner drama. Mr. Zhang slowly ascended with affection in his eyes, his amorous eyes seeming as though they could completely engulf Lin Qi.

Lin Qi was indeed very calm, feeling indifferent towards those eyes. As long as the person wasn’t Shen Dong, there wasn’t any difference. However, Mr. Zhang, oblivious to Lin Qi’s thoughts, relentlessly moved up, thinking his charm could already have captivated thousands of young girls.

Once up there, Mr. Zhang certainly wasn’t going to speak first. Having spent so much money, was he supposed to approach her like a submissive admirer? That was definitely impossible. The bar trained staff that, no matter whom you meet, you should behave exceptionally well and take the initiative to reveal what kind of person you are, to attract them and make them spend money on you.

Lin Qi etched this into her heart, seeing each attendant as a potential benefactor, always ready to spend money on her. What was wrong with showing a bit more kindness? Wasn’t it just about starting a conversation? It wasn’t hard at all, and with a sweet smile, she began speaking to Mr. Zhang:

"Mr. Zhang, hello! I’m really happy to meet you. Thank you for the generous amount of money you’ve spent and for taking an interest in me. I’m quite embarrassed actually; standing here even though I know people will spend money on me. It’s a privilege, and I sincerely appreciate you," she said.

After saying this, she extended her hand, something her etiquette teacher had taught her. If you captured the spotlight standing in the middle, you should be more proactive, allowing for some physical contact to make the other person remember you, so they would spend more in the future. Lin Qi thought about why not earn that money, so she became even more proactive.

She felt quite good about herself, able to make money for others. Shen Dong, watching from below, frowned tightly. Why was Lin Qi being so proactive? He had thought she might decline, possibly acting aloof and just walking away. But here she was, very calm, even actively reaching out for a handshake.

Was this the same Lin Qi he knew? Shen Dong furrowed his brow, feeling an indescribable emotion surging in his heart. Looking at Mr. Zhang in the middle, he was very displeased yet found his own feelings quite inexplicable. What relation did the other person have with him?

Their relationship was merely a partnership; there was no need to make it so involved, nor could he afford to think further. Shen Dong tried hard to suppress his inner displeasure.

After taking a sip of his drink, he realized he was overstepping boundaries. These weren’t his thoughts to entertain. Yet, not only had he thought them, but he had also felt an impulse to go up and pull the person away. This impulse was unceasing, while Mr. Zhang felt extremely joyful. Indeed, having money made everything simple, didn’t it? And now, wasn’t he easily manipulating this girl?

It was improbable for her not to listen to him since he hadn’t even shown a hint of his wealth, yet she acted as if she wanted to keep him close. Such women were terribly boring. Mr. Zhang yawned out of boredom and already started showing a disinterested demeanor.

His so-called friends below knew what Mr. Zhang’s expression meant, and they felt a bit sorry for the girl above. It looked like she would be discarded in a few days at most.

Were there a few women discarded by Mr. Zhang in this bar? Of course, there were plenty, one after another, all longing for him. Being with Mr. Zhang meant living the high life, luxuriously using and buying high-end products, all paid for with Mr. Zhang’s money. He was particularly generous.

No matter what, everything was still about money, so everyone was a bit keen on being with Mr. Zhang. However, as soon as they showed even a hint of this intent, Mr. Zhang would immediately break up, quite cleanly too, blocking and deleting all contact, leaving many women deeply heartbroken, unable to salvage anything even if they tried, however shamelessly.

Some talked about not needing a formal relationship, just wishing to be with Mr. Zhang indefinitely, not resuming with other women because Mr. Zhang always said well, "A good horse does not eat the grass behind it." Regarding all his ex-girlfriends, he planned not to bother with them anymore, so everyone could only reminiscence about the past, deeply regretting why they even brought up the subject.

But they also thought, even if they hadn’t brought it up, someday Mr. Zhang, tired of them, would still kick them out anyway. It was just a matter of sooner or later.

Some of the more sensible ones only regretted why they hadn’t scooped more benefits while together, nothing more. However, those less sensible pitied themselves daily, absorbing themselves in unrealistic fantasies. Mr. Zhang had indeed become notorious in this bar.
