Chapter 480 - 260: This Sales Gap is Way Too Big
Time passed.
A night passed. When the morning sun shone on the curtains the next day, Chen Jincheng woke up. He was the only one in the room now, save for a particular lingering scent.
’Interesting!’
He got up, picked up the clothes from the floor, dressed, and left the room.
He saw Lin Leqing and Li Muchen busy in the kitchen again. The smell of fried eggs wafted over.
There was also congee on the table.
Zhang Ao’ai was sitting there, waiting for breakfast.
When she saw Chen Jincheng come out, she was visibly flustered for a moment, recalling the awkward incident from last night.
’How could I have been so muddle-headed as to go back to my own room, lie down next to the boss, and grab his... thing?’
"Morning!" Chen Jincheng sat down with a grin and greeted her.
"Morning, Boss!" Zhang Ao’ai hurriedly replied. Feeling guilty, she couldn’t help but ask, "Boss, did you sleep well last night?"
Chen Jincheng knew she was testing the waters. He smiled and said, "I slept like a log. Knocked out straight till morning."
Zhang Ao’ai breathed a sigh of relief at his words.
’It’s good that he didn’t notice.’
A moment later, Li Muchen and Lin Leqing came out of the kitchen, one holding a plate of fried eggs and the other carrying bowls and chopsticks.
As Chen Jincheng picked up a bowl of congee to eat, he looked at the three girls, all with perfectly calm expressions, and couldn’t help but feel impressed.
’They’re actresses, after all. They’re acting as if nothing happened.’
Since that was the case, he ate some breakfast, also pretended that nothing had happened, said a word to the three girls, and left.
As he walked out the door, he could clearly feel the girls’ resentful gazes on him.
...
Chen Jincheng returned to his rented villa to wash up and change, then went to the company. He found that Sister Feiye had already arrived and was sitting in the lounge.
She was clearly dressed up with care today. She had her hair specially styled and was wearing a very sexy, white, strapless dress, which made her "stepmom vibe" even stronger.
Her makeup was exquisite, and her gaze held a hint of seductive laziness. She was alluring and utterly captivating.
(Something like this!)
’Seriously, this stepmom style suits her so perfectly. It seems that after I helped her unlock this persona last time, she’s really cultivated it.’
’If a guy really had a stepmom like her, any stepson would be tempted to misbehave.’
After a moment of appreciation, Chen Jincheng went into his office to arrange a few things. Then he came out and called for Sister Feiye to head to the airport with him.
As soon as they got in the car, Sister Feiye asked, "Boss, do I look good today?"
Hearing her initiate the banter, Chen Jincheng chuckled. "Mhm, it really suits your stepmom vibe. Seriously, any stepson with a stepmom like you would be guaranteed to lose thirty pounds in a month."
Sister Feiye asked teasingly, "Boss, if you were my stepson, would you lose thirty pounds?"
"..." Chen Jincheng was clearly taken aback for a second.
’Coming from her, that sounds incredibly dirty.’
He just then remembered their previous flirtatious battle of wits, which he had lost. He was no match for her when it came to being dirty.
Seeing his reaction, Sister Feiye just gave a triumphant smile.
The flight from Coastal City to Beijing took some time. During the journey, besides playing the game in his mind to no avail, Chen Jincheng also brainstormed some skit scripts for Lin Leqing, Li Muchen, and Zhang Ao’ai’s story-driven accounts.
He could just give them to the three girls later and have them take the scripts to the cinematography department to get them filmed.
The plane soon landed in Beijing.
Once his phone got a signal again, he saw some unread messages.
The first was from Lin Leqing: a row of aggrieved emojis.
"???" Chen Jincheng replied with a row of question marks.
The next moment, Lin Leqing replied, "Senior Brother, who was with you last night? Was it Sister Ai, or my cousin?"
Chen Jincheng’s mouth fell open when he saw the message.
’I’ve been found out?’
’Wasn’t this junior sister of mine supposed to be drunk?’
’The crucial thing is, Li Muchen was covering her mouth the whole time to keep from making a sound.’
He feigned ignorance and replied, "Yueqing, I don’t know what you’re talking about!"
"But I was here first." After sending the message, Lin Leqing sent another aggrieved emoji. She then looked over at her cousin and Sister Ai, who had just come out of their room, all dolled up and ready to go out to eat.
She was so mad.
She had made so many preparations last night. She wanted to use her two sisters to help her get her Senior Brother drunk. Even if he didn’t get completely plastered, drinking a lot could still create a special opportunity, right?
’Isn’t the probability of... *you know what*... happening after drinking pretty high?’
Who knew her Senior Brother could hold his liquor so well? She had no choice but to pretend to be drunk.
And who would have guessed that when she thought the time was right and ran to Sister Ai’s room, her Senior Brother was already...
She had prepared so much, only to pave the way for someone else.
The worst part was, she’d forgotten to check the other room to see who was missing.
When she remembered this morning, she found both Sister Ai and her cousin in the other room, so she could only pretend she didn’t know anything.
But after her Senior Brother left, the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
Now, she shot the two of them a look, snorted irritably, and stalked outside by herself.
"What’s wrong with her?" Zhang Ao’ai was baffled.
"Maybe she’s in a bad mood." Li Muchen, however, felt a pang of guilt.
She subconsciously wondered if her younger cousin had discovered what she’d done.
She knew her cousin liked the boss, but what she did last night was completely unscrupulous.
’But could you really blame her? The boss is just too outstanding. And handsome.’
After drinking, she just couldn’t control herself.
But what was done was done, and she didn’t regret it. At worst, she just had to make sure her cousin never found out.
With that thought, she couldn’t resist sending the boss a WeChat message: "Boss, I had a wonderful time last night!"
"What???" Upon receiving the girl’s message, Chen Jincheng immediately feigned confusion in his reply.
"???" Li Muchen was dumbfounded.
That was clearly not the response she had expected.
