“What do you mean by that?” Chen Lanyi asked in confusion.
“Nothing,” Li Wanji didn’t explain. After a moment, he said, “Oh right, I remember your brother’s villa is under your name, isn’t it? Transfer it to me later.”
“You shameless bastard!” Chen Lanyi’s pretty face flushed with anger. Her brother had left that luxurious villa to her, and even that he wanted to take? This man was utterly shameless!
“What, you’re unwilling?” Li Wanji tilted his head slightly, his expression darkening.
“I’m willing,” Chen Lanyi replied in a trembling voice, holding back tears. Did she even dare say no?
“You saw the screenshot I sent you at noon, right? Tonight, unlock that position for me. No problem, right?”
“No problem,” Chen Lanyi said softly through her sobs.
“Also, you should learn to cook. For starters, my favorite—mouthwatering chicken.”
“Got it.”
She didn’t dare refuse anything anymore.
After the transfer was done, Chen Lanyi excused herself to the bathroom. In truth, she went to the pharmacy and secretly bought a box of emergency contraceptives.
Back home, while Li Wanji was cooking, Chen Lanyi took out the medicine and was about to swallow it.
“What are you doing?”
Li Wanji came out just in time and saw her about to tilt her head back with the pill in her hand. He shouted sharply.
Startled, Chen Lanyi froze in place.
Li Wanji walked over and snatched the pill from her hand.
“Yuting!” Seeing the packaging, Li Wanji was furious. “So, is it that you didn’t believe what I said, or you thought I wouldn’t dare to kill someone?”
“No…” Chen Lanyi pouted aggrievedly, her eyes filled with tears.
“Alright, stop crying. I already told you—if you get pregnant, just give birth. From now on, don’t ever take these again. They’re harmful to your body.”
Li Wanji tossed the pill away and returned to the kitchen.
Once he left, Chen Lanyi hesitated, wanting to pick it back up… but then gave up.
He was a cultivator. He had spiritual sense—just like her brother.
Even if someone was in another room, they could still see what she was doing.
“This demon!” Chen Lanyi puffed her cheeks in anger. “I won’t have your child! Even if I do get pregnant, I’ll get rid of it!”
Soon, dinner was ready. The meal was abundant—four dishes and a soup.
The seafood mushroom chicken soup was so delicious that Chen Lanyi’s eyes lit up. Even though this guy was a scumbag, his cooking was undeniably amazing.
“Hello?” Just then, Li Wanji answered a call from Mo Ruyan.
“Sorry, Wanji dear. Zelan and Bailing are really hard to find lately. Hardly anyone uses them anymore, so our stock is very low.”
“How much can you provide?” Li Wanji asked.
“That’s it?”
“Yes, but don’t worry. I have a bestie who might have some sources. I’ll ask her tonight.”
“Alright.”
“But… my bestie likes handsome men. I might not be able to pull it off on my own.”
“Huh?” Li Wanji was surprised.
“Dress nicely tonight, Wanji dear.” Mo Ruyan giggled playfully, then hung up.
At 8 p.m., Li Wanji was ready to head out.
“Wash up and wait in bed. When I get back, I want to lift the blanket and see your fair, soft body, understand?”
After saying that to the pretty girl, he left in a hurry.
“Pft, messing around every night… not afraid of kidney failure?” Chen Lanyi muttered.
At that moment, her phone rang—it was her sister-like friend, Guoguo.
“Lanyi, it’s the weekend tomorrow. Can I come over and hang out?”
“Ah, but…”
Chen Lanyi hesitated. If that guy saw Guoguo, who knew what he might do? That man was a real scoundrel.
“Then it’s settled! Let’s keep playing Minecraft. We were so close to finishing the diamond set last time!” Guoguo said happily.
“Mm, alright. I’ll wake up early tomorrow to pick you up.”
“No need, I’ll have the butler drop me off. Don’t ride your little electric scooter—it’s too dangerous.”
“Got it.”
…
Meanwhile, on Li Wanji’s end, he arrived at the location Mo Ruyan had given and entered a private room.
Inside, he saw Mo Ruyan chatting with a gorgeous woman in a purple dress.
“Wanji dear, you’re here! Come sit, I’ll introduce you—this is Miss Xiao Dai, eldest daughter of the Xiao family from Donghai and a member of the Xiaoyao Society.”
Mo Ruyan stood up, pulled Li Wanji to sit, and smiled sweetly.
“Dai’er, this is Li Wanji. Isn’t he handsome? Your type, right?”
Xiao Dai’s bright eyes examined him and nodded. “Not bad. Take your shirt off—let’s see your abs.”
“Miss Xiao, isn’t that a bit much? We just met and you want to play this spicy already?” Li Wanji said, a bit overwhelmed.
“What, you’re unwilling?” Xiao Dai raised an eyebrow.
“Just feels a bit one-sided. How about you show me your legs first, Miss Xiao?”
Li Wanji’s eyes were fixed on her legs wrapped in black stockings.
“Sure.” Xiao Dai casually pulled up her skirt, revealing two flawless legs in sheer black stockings.
This woman was a goddess!
“Miss Xiao, you’re bold.” Li Wanji smiled and took off his T-shirt, revealing a fit, muscular torso.
“Wow!” The two women were both amazed.
“Abs!” Mo Ruyan reached out and pinched his muscles with her slender fingers.
Xiao Dai smiled. “Not bad. You’re barely qualified to partner with me.”
She quickly switched to business. “Give me the beauty cream. I want to try it.”
Li Wanji handed her a box. Xiao Dai opened it and applied it directly to her face.
“Not bad. Smells nice and isn’t too strong. Already better than Jade Skin Powder in that aspect.”
She continued evaluating. “Feels cool and soothing on the skin.”
After a while, she washed it off and was delighted to see her skin was smoother and more radiant.
“What’s going on? My skin improved so much!”
Surprised and delighted, she asked, “What ingredient did you use that even nourishes the blood?”
Li Wanji smiled. “Safflower. I added safflower.”
“I see,” Xiao Dai was impressed. She hadn’t expected a beauty cream could include blood-nourishing herbs.
“Can I invest?”
After some thought, Xiao Dai decided to invest. She had a good feeling about this beauty cream.
“Of course. Welcome aboard, Miss Xiao,” Li Wanji said happily.
With so many wealthy women joining, it wouldn’t be long before they completely crushed Qingcheng International.
Gu Qingning, your time will come.
An hour later, they signed the equity and investment contracts.
Xiao Dai invested 80 million yuan to help Li Wanji build the factory quickly.
“Miss Xiao, happy cooperation.”
“From now on, call me Heroine Xiao. Happy cooperation,” she said, shaking his hand.
After leaving the hotel, the three prepared to part ways.
“Tonight, your heroine is in a good mood. Let me give you a little bonus.”
Xiao Dai gave a seductive smile, suddenly grabbing Li Wanji’s wrist.
“What are you doing?” he asked.
Xiao Dai pulled his hand and pressed it against her thigh clad in black stockings.
“Ugh…” Li Wanji was frozen.
After a few seconds, she finally let go. “Remember that feeling.”
She giggled, turned around, got in her car, and sped away.
