CHAPTER 42: 42, DANDY IN THE PRESERVED FRUIT (NEW BOOK, PLEASE FOLLOW AND READ)

Chopsticks picked up a snow-white dumpling, dipped it in garlic soy sauce, and popped it into my mouth.

Xia Na’s face immediately showed an expression of happiness.

So delicious.

It’s really so delicious.

This guy’s skills are incredibly superb.

It was also the first time Chen Che saw Xia Na’s face after she took off her mask.

A palm-sized face, delicate features, and a unique youthful aura of a young girl.

A very pretty face.

Chen Che couldn’t help but admire it a little more.

Different from An Nishang’s mixed-race, mature, and well-defined features.

Each has its own style.

Chen Che also sat at the table eating dumplings, while An Nishang casually placed one of her legs on Chen Che’s thigh under the table.

Chen Che held chopsticks in one hand, picking up dumplings, while gently massaging the snow-white jade foot under the table with the other hand, playing with her soft, silkworm-like toes.

[An Nishang’s affection for you has risen to 10%.]

With 10% affection and 5% intent to kill... Chen Che pursed his lips.

They each ate this meal with great satisfaction.

Xia Na, having eaten Chen Che’s food, also became a diner of Chen Che’s, allowing him to perceive Xia Na’s data state.

The affection level increased from the previous -50% to -20% now.

The killing intent dropped from the original 100% to 50%.

The system rated Xia Na as an excellent diner, so every time Xia Na ate a dumpling, Chen Che could hear the information of experience and points rising.

But this killing intent made Chen Che grimace, this girl really has a big killing intent against him.

So after Xia Na finished eating, Chen Che unceremoniously started to usher her out, which made Xia Na puff up her cheeks like a pufferfish: "What are you doing? I still have something to say to my sister!"

"I and the boss have something to do now... you come back later."

"What could you have to do?"

Chen Che placed his hand on An Nishang’s thigh, lightly caressing the red Other Shore Flower starting to bloom on that tender skin, looking at Xia Na with a smug expression: "What do you think?"

An Nishang wasn’t so easily sated.

"Nana, you leave first."

[Xia Na’s intent to kill you has increased to 80%, Xia Na’s affection for you has dropped to -100%!]

Xia Na gritted her teeth, glared at Chen Che, and turned around to leave.

An Nishang elegantly wiped her red lips with a napkin.

The meat of this Hellhound seems to have aphrodisiac effects, making Chen Che feel unbearably hot all over, and he couldn’t help but wrap his arms around the waist of this enchanting and noble beauty, lifting her in a princess carry.

Taking her straight to the bathroom to assassinate.

Bathroom.

An Nishang placed her calves on Chen Che’s shoulders, the snow-white feet swaying gently with the rhythm.

Her toes on the jade-like feet suddenly curled tightly together, then were held by the panting man, playing with in the water.

An Nishang once again tasted a feeling that satisfied her soul, leaning against Chen Che’s chest in the bathtub, eyes closed, speaking softly: "You have subdued the Wildfire Gang."

"They lack what I happen to have." Biting her neck, explaining the reason.

An Nishang did not inquire further: "Take care when raising dogs, a dog that bites its owner is unacceptable. You have raised many dogs, but some are troublesome."

Chen Che knew An Nishang was referring to some of his previous business endeavors.

The original owner accepted any business as long as it made money.

Under him were many people.

Chaotic and cluttered.

After completing the task An Nishang gave him, he had to figure out how to resolve these people.

Otherwise, they could easily become a future problem for him.

He kissed An Nishang’s lips, saying: "Having died once, I’ve understood a lot of things clearly. After completing the tasks you assigned me, I will deal with some businesses."

He had some businesses that made An Nishang dissatisfied.

"Nishang, how do you plan to deal with Young Master Xu?" Chen Che changed the topic, probing curiously.

An Nishang opened her languid, crimson eyes. After a yawn, she said, "Just another rich kid soaking in a jar of peach syrup, nothing to be concerned about." Saying this, An Nishang thought of something and grabbed his chin, "You’re mine, don’t embarrass me outside. Whoever comes for you is the same."

Chen Che’s mouth curved into a smile as An Nishang leaned in and bit his lip.

"Hmm... carry me out."

An Nishang’s legs wrapped around his waist, her delicate feet locked around him, her arms around his neck as she leaned on his shoulder. He carried An Nishang out of the bathroom, leaving a trail of wet footprints.

...

Upper City District.

Celestial Palace Club.

Xu Ziang curled up in his cozy haven, flanked by two very different women, one young like a lolita and the other mature like a lady.

Cuddling close to Xu Ziang, lighting his cigarettes, pouring his drinks.

Wood entered the room and couldn’t help but swallow at the sight of the room’s lavishness.

There were human screens standing in the room, while Xu Ziang held a brush, sketching on a beauty paper.

Drunken revelry, a pool of wine and forest of meat.

These rich kids from the main city sure know how to have fun.

It’s said these women were brought over by Xu Ziang from the main city.

Wood put on a fawning smile, stepping forward with a flattering tone.

Xu Ziang then asked, "How’s the task I gave you going?"

Wood shook his head, "The Special Operations Department people came... Young Master Xu, that guy still seems to be in favor..."

Wood’s tone was peculiar; he went to snatch Chen Che’s business naturally because he had Xu Ziang as his backer.

Getting Chen Che, that pretty boy, was soon going to fall out of favor.

According to Wood’s thoughts, this should be the case. This Young Master Xu came down from the main city, with Director An, a perfect match, they were bound to be together.

Since Chen Che climbed up to An Nishang, he became more arrogant and unruly, daring to do business in anything, snatching many people’s interests.

But behind him is a she-devil, so no one knows whether it’s really Chen Che’s idea or secretly her instructions.

Facing this bastard’s huge appetite, everyone was forced to cough up their share for Chen Che to consume.

Many cursed Chen Che, this bastard, in their hearts, thinking one day he’d have to vomit it all back.

This is why, after receiving the news that Chen Che was about to fall out of favor, Wood eagerly went to snatch his business.

In Wood’s view, if Chen Che truly fell out of favor, he should have no time to worry about his business.

Yet, Special Operations Department members under An Nishang still came, signaling she still cared about Chen Che.

The affection was still there.

This left Wood somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that this Young Master Xu from the main city still couldn’t win over An Nishang? Couldn’t defeat a pretty boy who rose relying on a woman?

This made Wood feel a bit strange.

Xu Ziang sneered, "Just a pretty boy, and he wants to compare with me? He can only bring An Nishang some physical pleasure.

In this world, power and money are the most important things.

Wait, after An Nishang thinks about it for a night, she’ll know who to choose.

To make her perish, first, let her go crazy."

"Rest assured, those things are just small fries to me, they’re all yours."

Xu Ziang also needed to win people’s hearts.

The fastest way to win people over is undoubtedly giving money.

So, Xu Ziang distributed Chen Che’s business.

He told Wood to wait, let those willing to serve him snatch it.

In his view, An Nishang abandoning Chen Che was only a matter of time.

Once An Nishang is gone, anyone can step on Chen Che, the pretty boy.

Xu Ziang was fully confident that An Nishang would definitely choose him over Chen Che.

He could provide An Nishang with real power!

Wood’s eyes flickered... something was off with this guy, he was high, right? Didn’t he do his homework on that she-devil? Damn it... I thought he had some trump card, and he’s just relying on his family? Damn... don’t get screwed over by this bastard.

Did the Xu Family really only send a honey-eating fool to the Ninth Special Zone? Damn, no, I better not mess with that pretty boy now, nearly burned myself trying to sneak a taste.

If this guy can’t arouse An Nishang’s interest at all and the pretty boy hasn’t fallen out of favor, it would be trouble if I snatched his business. What exactly is this guy’s trump card... A thousand thoughts crossed Wood’s mind as he chuckled, raising his glass, "For sure! Young Master Xu, you’ll definitely succeed, cheers to you!"
