Chapter 449 - 209: Just One Word: Fierce
Now that business was concluded, Xu Yun remembered the payment he owed.
A good man never takes advantage of a woman!
While enjoying Wanqing’s massage, he asked bluntly, "Before you go, would you prefer a sum of money, or something else?"
"I don’t want money. I want an opportunity."
Wanqing replied, "An opportunity to make a name for myself in the entertainment industry. Is that possible?"
"To be honest, I probably can’t help you here on Hong Kong Island. I don’t have the connections or business interests."
Xu Yun thought for a moment before saying, "However, if you’re willing to go to the Mainland to develop your career, I can introduce you to a film and television company, get you signed on as one of their artists, and provide you with some resources.
Whether you can make it big or not will be entirely up to you."
"I’m willing."
A smile immediately bloomed on Wanqing’s face after she heard this, and she agreed without any hesitation.
On Hong Kong Island, she was just a minor model scraping by.
But in the Mainland, she would at least be a signed artist under a film and television company.
Besides, judging by the power Xu Yun had displayed, a company he introduced her to was bound to be a good one in the Mainland, considering how rich he was.
Michelle finished her shower, got dressed, and came out just in time to hear her best friend say, "I’m willing." She walked over and asked with a smile, "Wanqing, what are you willing to do?"
"The payment."
Xu Yun answered for her, "She’s agreed to go to the Mainland for her career. I’m going to introduce her to a film and television company and get her signed on as an artist."
"Really?"
Michelle said happily to Wanqing, "Congratulations! You finally have your chance."
"What about you?"
Now that her own matter was settled, Wanqing started to worry about Michelle. "Will Young Master Ruan really help you?" she asked.
"I don’t know. I just hope he doesn’t lie to me."
Michelle was well aware that the one who owed her for last night’s "services" wasn’t Xu Yun.
She had been sent over by Ruan Qingnian as a "gift."
So, it wasn’t her place to ask Xu Yun for anything.
Listening to their conversation, Xu Yun gave Wanqing a meaningful look. He naturally understood the implication behind her words.
’What a true friend, actually looking out for the other.’
’She just wants me to help her friend.’
Thinking about her performance last night, Xu Yun spoke up, "Michelle, I’m not sure what Young Master Ruan promised you, but if you’re also willing to go to the Mainland for your career, I can make it happen and give you the same terms as Wanqing."
"Thank you, President Xu."
Michelle smiled. "I’m already used to living here, so I won’t be going to the Mainland.
If you think I’m a decent person, just putting in a few good words for me with Young Master Ruan would be enough."
"Alright, I promise."
Just then, a knock sounded at the door. It was Lin Wanzhou’s voice.
Xu Yun had Wanqing stop and sat up to open the door.
Lin Wanzhou stood at the doorway and shook his head upon seeing the two young women who had suddenly appeared behind Xu Yun.
’This kid’s getting more and more wild. Now he’s got two at once!’
’Well, there’s no way he’s coming to eat with me now.’
"Aren’t you afraid of working yourself to death with women!"
Lin Wanzhou didn’t even enter the room. "I’ll just go eat by myself," he said.
With that, he turned and left.
"..." Xu Yun was speechless.
He turned back awkwardly. "Let’s go, ladies. We’ll go eat too."
This time, Xu Yun took the two of them to the hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant.
Women love this kind of thing.
However, aside from the complimentary breakfast for two, all other proper meals at the hotel had to be paid for separately.
Naturally, Xu Yun wasn’t stingy. He treated them to a lavish lunch complete with black truffles, caviar, and more, spending a total of 12,000.
Once they had eaten and drunk their fill, it also signaled the end of the relationship between Xu Yun and them.
But before they left, Xu Yun kindly took the two of them shopping at the K11 mall downstairs, buying each of them a Louis Vuitton bag worth tens of thousands.
This moved the two of them once again.
Not only that, but Xu Yun also gave Michelle an extra tip of 66,666 yuan!
After all, she had worked hard all night but hadn’t actually received any tangible benefits from him.
Only after the two women had left did Xu Yun return to his hotel room to rest.
As for his private tour guide, Yu Jiaming, Xu Yun really didn’t have the energy to go out today, so he gave him the day off with full pay.
Then, in the evening, Xu Yun received another message from Zhang Jin.
They had added each other on WeChat on the boat last night.
So he went next door, found Lin Wanzhou, and said, "Zhang Jin has agreed to fight you. It’s scheduled for seven o’clock tonight at a martial arts gym. He’s already sent me the address."
"Didn’t you say he wouldn’t agree?"
Lin Wanzhou asked, a little puzzled, "Why the sudden change of heart?"
Xu Yun smiled. "He probably came to his senses. You in?"
"Of course I’m in."
"Then let’s head out after we finish dinner."
An hour later, Xu Yun and Lin Wanzhou arrived at a martial arts gym.
The two words "Wing Chun" were written on the sign above!
That made sense. As a hardcore martial arts star, although he had practiced swordsmanship, Tai Chi, and more, Wing Chun was one of the martial arts he was most proficient in and known for demonstrating.
He had even studied under Liang Shaohong, Yip Man’s last personally-taught disciple.
Xu Yun teased, "Feeling confident? Don’t actually go and mess this up."
"Wing Chun is the martial art most similar to a killing technique. It’s very much like what we learned in the military, focused on practicality."
For once, Lin Wanzhou was a bit modest. "If he’s truly learned the skills, I can’t guarantee I’ll win."
"No worries. If you lose, I’ll win your face back for you."
Xu Yun smiled. "I want to test my own skills, too."
