Urban drama: Starting with marrying the beautiful and wealthy Jiang Lai

Zhu Suosuo looked at Cao Meng in disbelief. This bastard, after our date, he wouldn't even let me stay, and I had to drag my tired body away.

It's outrageous that they can be summoned and dismissed at will.

If you have something very private to discuss, I suggest the gentleman check the lady in!

If Cao Meng were to let Zhu Suosuo pay for her own room at this point, his image in Xu Hongdou's eyes would likely be completely ruined.

Cao Meng didn't want to leave that kind of image in Xu Hongdou's mind.

He then paid for the room.

He also explained to Xu Hongdou, "Don't misunderstand, this Ms. Zhu Suosuo is a sales representative for a luxury brand, and I am their VIP member. We have some product-related issues to discuss!"

Xu Hongdou nodded slightly: "Sir, I have no misunderstanding, I have no preconceived notions, I wish you a pleasant communication!"

Her smile was very professional, revealing no genuine emotion whatsoever.

In fact, Xu Hongdou could see the ambiguous relationship between Zhu Suosuo and Cao Meng.

She already considered Cao Meng to be a playboy.

Dating two girls in one night, and two completely different types of girls at that—this playboy has amazing stamina and a wide range of tastes.

Zhu Suosuo looked at Xu Hongdou in surprise, then at Cao Meng.

She didn't quite understand why Cao Meng would hide his relationship with her from Xu Hongdou.

Once inside the room, Zhu Suosuo asked resentfully, "Why did you explain to the receptionist that we had that kind of relationship?"

Although Cao Meng still harbors resentment towards Zhu Suosuo, who, like his ex-wife before his rebirth, is a woman he can only share wealth with but not poverty, he doesn't have much love for her.

However, he was unwilling to let this woman go on a date with a heart full of resentment.

So Cao Meng held Zhu Suosuo's voluptuous body in his arms and said with a smile, "Isn't it because you're so charming and sexy?"

I was worried that she might mistakenly believe we had an improper business relationship and would choose to call the police.

So I quickly explained that we had a business partnership.

Actually, we do have this kind of relationship!

Zhu Suosuo's outfit tonight is a bit too outrageous. Despite the freezing weather, she's wearing an extremely short top that reveals her long, straight, and fair legs.

Although she was wearing a black leather jacket, she was wearing a red camisole underneath, a V-neck camisole.

In addition, her own charming and alluring temperament makes her particularly easy to misunderstand.

Upon hearing Cao Meng's explanation, Zhu Suosuo's resentment was greatly alleviated.

She said, somewhat annoyed, "You think my attire will make me look like a prostitute?"

Cao Meng sighed and said, "It is indeed a bit too sexy, and it is easy for people to misunderstand."

I still hope that your everyday outfits when you're out can be a little simpler and more understated, but a little sexier when you're alone with me!

He was very dissatisfied with Zhu Suosuo's seductive and alluring demeanor during the golden years, which seemed to exude charm everywhere.

Although Cao Meng and Zhu Suosuo are not boyfriend and girlfriend at all, and are even just friends with benefits, he doesn't want Zhu Suosuo to always be so alluring and seductive.

You can be charming and alluring in front of yourself, but there's no need to be like that in public.

If it were a confident and assertive woman, or a girl with a delicate and charming personality, she would object to Cao Meng and say things like, "It's our women's freedom to dress," which is utter nonsense.

Zhu Suosuo said very obediently and gently, "Darling, I'll listen to you. I'll dress conservatively like an office lady when I'm out, but I'll only dress like that when I'm with you, okay?"

Please don't be so cold to me!

Zhu Suosuo noticed that because she was dressed too sexily, Cao Meng didn't beam with joy when he saw her. Instead, he looked rather serious, and even seemed to think, "I don't recognize her."

Zhu Suosuo realized that her attire had made Cao Meng somewhat unhappy.

She immediately admitted her mistake and asked Cao Meng for forgiveness.

Seeing that Zhu Suosuo's attitude was good, Cao Meng nodded and said, "I hope you can do this in the future, and not say one thing and do another!"

Zhu Suosuo obediently replied, "Since you said so, I will definitely do it!"

Cao Meng, recalling Peng Jiahe's splits earlier, now looked at Zhu Suosuo with a smile: "Can you do the splits?"

Zhu Suosuo smiled and said, "Back in college, I was a national standard dance champion. I'm quite flexible!"

As she spoke, she easily did a split on the bed.

Cao Meng said approvingly, "That's easy. Could you make one on the wall?"

Zhu Suosuo stretched her legs against the wall and did a split.

Cao Meng was a little frustrated: "You guys can do the splits so easily, but I can only do eight!"

His muscles are extremely stiff, and he has very poor flexibility.

Sometimes he could feel that because of his poor flexibility, he couldn't unlock certain poses.

Zhu Suosuo couldn't help but laugh and said, "Darling, girls are naturally more flexible, what's the point of comparing? Unless you can come up with some incredible poses."

That's completely unnecessary!

During a break in their date, Cao Meng casually asked, "In the photos you posted, there's a girl who seems really affectionate with you. Who is she?"

Zhu Suosuo said with a smile, "She is my best friend, Jiang Nansun!"

Cao Meng couldn't help but say, "You two are so close, you're practically kissing. You wouldn't happen to be lesbians, would you?"

Zhu Suosuo chuckled: "It's normal for best friends to kiss, how does that make us lesbians? If I were a lesbian, why would I go on a date with you?"

Cao Meng laughed and said, "That's possible. For example, you might be bisexual and attracted to both men and women!"

Zhu Suosuo suddenly froze, wondering if she was now considered bisexual.

Her relationship with Jiang Nansun was indeed much closer than that of ordinary best friends.

But she also likes men, so is she bisexual?

Zhu Suosuo said very honestly, "I really don't know if I count, but my feelings for Jiang Nansun are much deeper than my feelings for a regular best friend."

I like you very much too. I would be heartbroken if I had to leave either of you!

Cao Meng seized the opportunity and casually said, "How about I meet your girlfriend, Jiang Nansun, another day?"

"Once I see her, I'll be able to tell if you two are in that kind of relationship!"

Zhu Suosuo, who had previously appeared to be all looks and no brains, suddenly became very alert: "You wouldn't happen to like Jiang Nansun, would you?"

Cao Meng chuckled and said, "How could that be? I've never even met her, how could I possibly like her?"

Zhu Suosuo thought about it and said sweetly, "Then I'll ask her if she's willing."

I told her a lot about you, but I don't know what her impression of you is.

Cao Meng couldn't help but smile wryly; he hadn't really behaved very well during his interactions with Zhu Suosuo.

He's always trying to get something for nothing, and even if he's rich, he's a very stingy rich person.

Someone as shrewd as Jiang Nansun wouldn't have a good impression of me.

But no matter what, Cao Meng wanted to give himself more opportunities.

Who wouldn't want more beautiful women?

Cao Meng then said, "Let's get together whenever everyone has time!"

At this moment, Zhu Suosuo said with a hint of resentment, "If we have a get-together, how should I introduce you? Who are you to me?"

In the past few days, Cao Meng had always been at Zhu Suosuo's beck and call, and had never taken her seriously.

After experiencing so many setbacks, Zhu Suosuo was somewhat disheartened.

Cao Meng thought about it carefully, then put his arm around Zhu Suosuo and said affectionately.

"Do I need to introduce myself? When we appeared together, everyone thought we were a perfect match, a match made in heaven. Everyone thought I was your boyfriend and you were my girlfriend."

However, if we want our relationship to last, we can't expose it too early, otherwise it will make people jealous...

Some women are extremely jealous and will ruin the women of the men they can't have...

His bluff was so obvious that even a normal person could tell it was a lie, yet it made Zhu Suosuo beam with joy and tremble with delight.

"You're so handsome, so rich, and now your hot pot restaurant is so thriving. There must be so many women who like you."

I really can't reveal our relationship, otherwise there will definitely be a lot of people jealous of me!

It's unclear whether she was genuinely fooled or just pretending to be naive to hide her heartbreak.

Zhu Suosuo then said, "I remember now, Jiang Nansun has always wanted to go to your Haidilao 880 hot pot restaurant with me."

But your business is so booming, the waiting area is always packed with people every time I go there.

"Mr. Cao, could you please give Jiang Nansun and me a chance to eat at your hot pot restaurant?"

Cao Meng laughed and said, "Of course! Whenever you're free, come to my office for a meal, and I'll personally serve you!"

Zhu Suosuo was overjoyed and said with a sweet smile, "That would be wonderful!"

Oh, and there's one more thing. Ever since your order, I've been sitting in the shop all day waiting for customers, but I haven't been getting any at all.

My performance this month has been particularly poor; I'm on the verge of being laid off..."

Cao Meng frowned slightly: "Do you want me to boost your sales performance?"

Zhu Suosuo shook her head and said, "No, it's just that I don't want to work there anymore."

Can I come to your hot pot restaurant?

"I'd even be willing to work as a waiter!"

Cao Meng could tell that Zhu Suosuo wanted to come to the hot pot restaurant partly because of the high salary.

On the other hand, she probably wants to take advantage of being close to the boss and spend time with him day and night, hoping to become the boss's wife.

But Cao Meng didn't want to start a business with a woman who could only share wealth but not hardship.

He shook his head and said, "Our hot pot restaurant doesn't really need sales; we just need meticulous service."

You have a real talent for sales, so I think you should try selling the houses with the highest unit prices.

I'll have a friend introduce you to Jingyan Real Estate Company!

Since Cao Meng acquired the talent scout skill, he has been able to see the talent in everyone.

He could tell that Zhu Suosuo and Fei were just big-breasted, brainless, stupid women, but that they actually had a talent for sales.

She could have easily run Jingyan Real Estate Company just like in the original timeline.

In this timeline, with Cao Meng guiding her, Zhu Suosuo might become a successful woman like Su Mingyu from the TV series "All Is Well".

Because Zhu Suosuo will meet a benefactor, Ye Jinyan, in that company.

Ye Jinyan once had a daughter who committed suicide due to depression. Zhu Suosuo happened to be born on the same day, month, and year as Ye Jinyan's daughter.

Ye Jinyan would then show Zhu Suosuo the same favoritism and doting as he would a daughter.

In the original timeline, Zhu Suosuo was unaware of this detail; she mistakenly believed that Ye Jinyan had fallen in love with her.

As a result of various unforeseen circumstances, she ended up marrying an incompetent rich second-generation heir, ruining what should have been a promising life for her.

In this timeline, Cao Meng wanted to wake Zhu Suosuo up early and make her understand that she was a substitute for Ye Jinyan's daughter.

In this way, Ye Jinyan's various promotions and appreciations of her will become a powerful tool for Zhu Suosuo to advance her social class.

If Zhu Suosuo and Ye Jinyan hadn't had any romantic relationship back then (in this timeline, she and the old man definitely wouldn't have had any love), and she had simply been willing to be a substitute for Ye Jinyan's daughter, taking advantage of Ye Jinyan's appreciation and favoritism, she could have steadily risen through the ranks in the real estate company, and becoming a vice president would have been just around the corner.

In fact, once Zhu Suosuo becomes an important member of Jingyan Real Estate Company, and if she becomes pregnant and gives birth to a child for Cao Meng, successfully triggering the sixth or seventh step of the "lying down and winning" system, that real estate company could potentially become Cao Meng's, and that's a real estate company worth 100 billion...

Chapter 65: To conquer Zhu Suosuo, she dragged her best friend Jiang Nansun into the mess!

Zhu Suosuo's eyes lit up at that moment. Cao Meng reminded her that she did have some sales skills and could definitely sell houses.

She thought Cao Meng genuinely cared for her and was deeply moved. She hugged Cao Meng's neck tightly, saying, "Darling, you're so good to me. Thank you. I love you so much..."

Cao Meng casually asked Zhu Suosuo about her birthday: "When is your birthday? I'd like to prepare a birthday present for you in advance."

Zhu Suosuo had always wanted Cao Meng to give her gifts, just like he doted on Peng Jiahe.

Hearing Cao Meng ask this question, Zhu Suosuo was overjoyed.

When Zhu Suosuo mentioned her birthday, Cao Meng looked quite surprised: "How could it be such a coincidence? Ye Jinyan, the president of Jingyan Real Estate Company whom I was planning to introduce you to, has a daughter who passed away due to depression. Her previously announced birthday is the same as yours—the same year, month, and day!"

This coincidence is absolutely terrifying!
