Chapter 1275: Chapter 1275: A Minor Interlude

Zhang Guoning is the assistant president of Ford Asia Pacific, with an annual income of at least five million yuan, and he is also unmarried.

Many people see him as an “eligible bachelor” and “Diamond Bachelor,” and in the workplace, they are referred to as the Golden Collar Tribe.

They are busy at work, but their income and social status are high, which gives them a great sense of achievement.

Zhang Guoning is already thirty-two this year, but he is still unmarried and doesn’t even have a girlfriend.

It’s not that he can’t find a girlfriend, nor that he doesn’t have time for a relationship. With his handsome appearance and elegant demeanor, Zhang Guoning is very popular with girls, and if he wanted a girlfriend, he could easily have a long line of girls willing to be with him.

In his life, he has one major indulgence: beauty.

He uses his handsome appearance, extraordinary eloquence, noble demeanor, and decent income to have intimate relationships with many girls. It could be said that the girls he has been involved with might number in the triple digits.

The feeling of flirting casually is very free and easy.

Zhang Guoning knows his charm, hence a major pleasure in his life is pursuing beautiful women.

But he hardly invests emotions in women, just playing among the flowers, taking pride in conquering women and having physical relationships.

Of course, with enough experience and having seen many women, his standards have become very high and it’s rare for someone to move his heart.

But today, he saw a girl on the high-speed train that made his heart flutter at first sight.

On a last-minute business trip, unable to buy a plane ticket, he hated the detestable travel rush.

Luckily, high-speed train tickets were still available.

Thinking that the high-speed train and the plane take about the same time, and possibly the train is even faster because it doesn’t get delayed, Zhang Guoning felt somewhat relieved.

After seeing that stunningly beautiful girl on the train who instantly captured his heart, Zhang Guoning immediately felt fortunate about his decision.

Suddenly, the travel rush didn’t seem so hateful.

He considered it a favor from fate, letting him have the chance to meet such a heart-stirring girl.

Although there was a handsome male companion by the beautiful girl’s side, even more handsome than himself, Zhang Guoning didn’t take Luo Ziling, who seemed quite tender, seriously.

He believed that beautiful women prefer mature, sophisticated men who are successful in their careers.

With over a decade’s experience of conquering around a hundred different women, Zhang Guoning was still very confident in himself.

But contrary to his expectations, the beautiful girl was not interested in engaging with him at all.

“Sorry, you don’t qualify to sit here,” Luo Ziling, who was joking and laughing with Yang Qingyin, immediately said upon seeing someone disrupting their fun, “These four seats are ours, we don’t want anyone disturbing us.”

But Zhang Guoning didn’t take Luo Ziling’s words seriously and took out a business card from his pocket, gracefully handing it to Yang Qingyin, “Miss, hello, I am the assistant president of Ford Asia Pacific, my name is…”

“I’m not interested in getting to know you,” Yang Qingyin interrupted him before he could finish, impatiently saying, “Remember, don’t easily disturb others’ lives.”

Yang Qingyin had a smiley and charming demeanor while chatting with Luo Ziling, which was very captivating, but when she spoke to Zhang Guoning, her face immediately turned cold and her tone was quite impolite.

Then, Yang Xiaodong, sitting aside, came over and grabbed Zhang Guoning rather rudely, saying, “What a thick-faced guy you are! These lovebirds bought four tickets for some romance, wishing not to be disturbed, and you still think you have a chance to hit on them. Also, consider how you look and whether your assets even compare to theirs. No looks, no status, no assets, and still trying to steal someone’s girlfriend, aren’t you ashamed!”

“What does this have to do with you,” Zhang Guoning’s face couldn’t hold up being belittled directly by Yang Xiaodong.

“The most annoying are those without self-awareness,” Yang Xiaodong said, then sat down next to Yang Qingyin with a thud, “Get lost, don’t spoil our mood.”

Seeing Yang Xiaodong sit next to Yang Qingyin, Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin didn’t react. Zhang Guoning then realized that they were really a group. Glancing at Yang Xiaodong’s stern glare, he ultimately didn’t dare to cause trouble and slunk back to his seat.

Despite this minor incident, as Zhang Guoning tactfully retreated without causing a conflict, it added a bit of fun to the journey.

“See the charm of your senior,” after Zhang Guoning left with a gloomy face and Yang Xiaodong returned to his seat, Yang Qingyin triumphantly asked Luo Ziling, “Over the next few days, there will definitely be others trying to hit on me, you must keep an eye on me or else someone might kidnap me away, leaving no one to accompany you.”

Luo Ziling didn’t care at all, “Maybe, some beauty will take a fancy to me next, just wait and see.”

“Pfft,” Yang Qingyin looked unconvinced, “Looks like someone is indeed hoping girls will hit on him, filled with universal love!”

“You look cute when you are jealous,” Luo Ziling said as he pinched Yang Qingyin’s face.

Yang Qingyin’s face turned red, and she slapped away Luo Ziling’s hand, “Keep your hands to yourself.”

“Can’t I make others envious?” Luo Ziling looked towards where Zhang Guoning was sitting and said with a proud face, “Showing off our affection deters others from trying to hit on us, doesn’t it save trouble?”

“You’re so boring, why bother about others?” Yang Qingyin rolled her eyes.

Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin were on the high-speed train that left after seven in the morning, and after more than six hours of travel, they arrived at Qiantang East Station at around half-past one in the afternoon.

When they exited the station, Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin encountered Zhang Guoning again. He looked at Luo Ziling with complex eyes and gazed longingly at Yang Qingyin, but Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin ignored him.

Ye Xiaoli, Yang Xiaodong, and Wang Zhenjun also came to meet up, and the five of them together boarded a Mercedes SUV parked at the entrance.

Yang Xiaodong drove, Wang Zhenjun sat in the passenger seat, while Luo Ziling, Yang Qingyin, and Ye Xiaoli sat in the back.

As they were boarding, Zhang Guoning had just walked out of the waiting room.

Not expecting Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin to have so many companions, and that the person he had argued with was really one of them, Zhang Guoning was somewhat surprised. He realized that these people must have an important status, otherwise they wouldn’t travel in such a manner.

Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin, as they drove away, also noticed Zhang Guoning’s surprised look, but they still ignored him.

However, both of them didn’t know that this man who tried to flirt on the high-speed train would encounter them multiple times later and cause them trouble.

Of course, that is a story for another time.
