Chapter 680: Chapter 680: Distinguish Clearly
The situation at the venue had suddenly become like this, taking everyone by surprise. No one had expected such words to be spoken, and it was indeed shocking, especially since it was one of the leaders who said it, apparently quite familiar with their affairs. Shen Dong, watching from above, his eyes had deepened considerably as he looked at the person below.
It seemed like the second-in-command already knew their secret, thinking for sure that Shen Dong would respond to him. Shen Dong just found it all very boring, while Zhang Xu was confused. Just a moment ago, this woman had been trying to hook up with him, and now she seemed to be entangled with the boss instead. How could this woman be so chaotic? Still, no matter what, it was better to get himself rescued first.
He didn’t want to stay here; if these people lost it later and accidentally hurt him, that would be very dangerous. Thinking this, Zhang Xu wanted to speak up, to ask the boss to protect him first. Then the Zhang family wouldn’t do any harm to the bar. If the Zhang family did cause harm, Zhang Xu couldn’t guarantee their reaction.
But just as he was about to speak, he saw Mr. Shen’s gaze fixed on 007. He couldn’t really be falling for 007 and give up the chance to save himself in favor of a woman, could he? How could that be possible? He himself was so noble, and that woman was just a drinking companion. The world was full of hostesses.
Yo, yo, yo, you can’t be so capricious now. In the face of important matters, he hoped Mr. Shen could still discern clearly. If he couldn’t, then it would be really bad. Zhang Xu wanted to remind Mr. Shen, hoping he would choose him. The second-in-command, seeing how anxious Zhang Xu was, knew he held a good card in his hands.
But he just wanted to see what the boss above thought to make such a bold request. The people around him didn’t understand either, but it was the second-in-command’s game to play, so they couldn’t stop him. Since he set up the situation, they had no right to say no or comment, only to stand silently behind.
This time, they could only rely on the second-in-command to get them out; they didn’t dare voice any objections. After the second-in-command spoke, he waited for the reply, afraid of both hearing what he wanted and not hearing it, terrified either way.
"Mr. Shen, if you could just get me out of this encirclement this time, I would definitely prepare a large sum of money to thank you for your great kindness after this is over. I really don’t want to stay here anymore, please choose me first."
"You mean what you say, right? If the boss actually chooses me, would you really let me go? You’re just using me as a ploy."
As he spoke, his eyes were filled with disbelief, fearing that the man was tricking him. Having been around society, seen such tactics, he became a bit scared, that’s why he wanted to make sure. If that was the case, he would really have to get the boss to rescue him.
Mr. Shen wasn’t even sure if he wanted to. When that was said, there was some disdain among those nearby. If it was up to the boss to make the choice directly, they wouldn’t have said anything. But now, between a woman and him, he had taken the initiative to speak up, and it could only mean one thing: the man was too irresponsible.
Only thinking of saving himself, he didn’t care about anything else. What was the point of that? Everyone could see what sort of person he really was. Lin Qi watched with great amusement. Okay, indeed, it was as expected. Good thing she had seen plenty before.
She hadn’t been deceived by him; if she had, she would definitely be heartbroken. Lin Qi was mentally preparing herself, feeling indifferent; she had seen too many men like him already. Another look now still seemed funny, but that was it; her feelings were calm.
Now, the only thing she was a bit worried about was Shen Dong above. Would he really not choose her because of this man? Lin Qi didn’t know. If it were about someone else, she would be absolutely certain that the boss would choose Zhang Xu because he could bring greater benefits, and the subsequent cooperation would be very valuable.
Moreover, if anything happened to Zhang Xu, the bar wouldn’t survive. If she were Mr. Shen, she would definitely choose Mr. Zhang over a mere girl like herself. After all, there were plenty of women like her in the world; what would it matter if she was gone? If there was money and benefit, wouldn’t that be enough?
It was a hurting mentality many people had, and Lin Qi knew her own status and worth; of course, she didn’t dare to expect anyone to choose her first. So, she felt very inferior, thinking it was all the same whether she was chosen or not. Yet, she still had a bit of hope. Would he pick her?
"Of course, when have my words ever carried no weight? As long as the boss above is willing to choose you, I’ll let you go right away. But you have to see whether the boss is willing to learn from you. Look, even though I’ve said as much, the boss still doesn’t want to choose you. That must mean something, doesn’t it? The person he wants to choose isn’t you.
It’s just because your value is so high that he hesitates. If it were someone else now, an ordinary person, he would probably choose the little dancer without hesitation. I think this little dancer looks pretty good. If I were the boss, of course, I’d be tender to a beauty. If the boss doesn’t want to choose,
then let me take this woman back and take good care of me. After all, these days have been tiring. Having a sweetheart serve me comfortable and well is quite meaningful, right?"
When the second-in-command said this, he looked lecherous, and Lin Qi frowned deeply upon hearing it, but she didn’t argue. The best strategy was to not attract attention and slip away when the opportunity arose without causing trouble for others.
Since the boss had already been so kind to her, she needed to be content and not burden others. So, she also said:
"There’s no need to choose me."
