Villains in Film and Television: Starting with Yang Ke in "The Golden Age"

Two more hours passed.

Michelle came to see Yang Ke around 10 a.m., and it's a little past 3 p.m. now.

"Brother Yang, what about now?"

Michelle was captivated by Yang Ke, so she wanted to be his girlfriend even more.

"Once I get the chance to show you what it means to have someone even better, you won't ask me this question anymore."

Yang Ke was referring to Fan Shengmei.

When Fan Shengmei was short of money, what was Michelle compared to her?

Even Guan Juer is better than Michelle, but she is too proud and thinks she is already very good.

"I don't want it."

"I don't want to be compared with Guan Juer."

Michelle thought Yang Ke meant comparing her to Guan Juer, but how could she agree to that?

You have to understand, she's not like Fan Shengmei, nor is she a lovesick little girl like Qiu Yingying; she has her own principles.

"I can make you a senior executive at your Huaxin Securities company, and you still won't agree to that?"

Yang Ke immediately used his ultimate move.

"real!"

Although Michelle never thought she could become a billionaire on her own, the vanity of going from a rich and beautiful young woman to a high-level executive in a large corporation would be wonderful.

"Whether it's true or not, we'll have to wait and see how someone performs next."

Yang Ke glanced at Michelle, wondering who would be the best person to share the stage with that night.

"Yes, I will do my best."

Michelle was captivated by this promise, and besides, what Yang Ke said was indeed true, so of course she had no objections.

"Let's go find something to eat to fill our stomachs first. We still have plenty of time today."

After glancing at the time, Yang Ke took Michelle and prepared to go out for something to eat.

The main problem was that Qu Xiaoxiao and Fan Shengmei were both unavailable in the afternoon. She hadn't contacted them beforehand, and they were probably busy with their own careers.

Yang Ke, naturally, didn't mind having a good meal with Michelle, so after making a phone call, they quickly arrived at the Michelin three-star restaurant in Shanghai.

"Brother Yang, you're amazing! You managed to get here to eat just by making a phone call without making a reservation."

Michelle had always thought highly of Yang Ke, but she never expected him to call and say he wanted to have dinner at a Michelin three-star restaurant for afternoon tea, so they prepared to wait for him.

It's important to know that restaurants generally have preparation time, and some restaurants even schedule reservations several days in advance for the sake of style.

Is it because we can't accommodate you?

No, it's for the sake of that sense of prestige.

Think about it, even if you book a few days in advance, it's still a long time, but at least you managed to book an appointment.

In this situation, would you care if the food is several times more expensive than it originally was?

They sell at higher prices and make more money, and they also elevate the brand's image, so they're already raking in profits. Why bother with a bunch of customers?

"It's nothing, I just have a bit of a connection with the chef."

Yang Ke wasn't lying. When he ate there before, the chef came to ask him about his dining experience. As a master chef with god-like culinary skills, he naturally had a good opinion of what he thought.

And so he became the restaurant's top customer, which is why the chef wanted him to give more feedback.

In short, after Yang Ke brought Michelle here for afternoon tea, Michelle had no resistance to what was going to happen that evening.

She even enjoys the sense of privilege that comes with money and plans to give it her all.

If Yang Ke really discovers her merits and promotes her, then she will be a winner in life.

After the two finished their afternoon tea and sat leisurely for a while, Yang Ke called Qu Xiaoxiao.

"Brother Yang, what brings you here?"

When Qu Xiaoxiao saw that Yang Ke had taken the initiative to call her, she thought he missed her, so she sounded very happy.

"Come to my villa on the outskirts of Shanghai tonight, you need to be there before 7 p.m."

Yang Ke directly stated the specific time.

"Oh, I know."

Qu Xiaoxiao didn't pay attention to Yang Ke's tone; on the contrary, she found it very manly.

People like Yao Bin shamelessly pursued her and always went along with her wishes, which made Qu Xiaoxiao feel bored and look down on them.

But Yang Ke is different. He can make her feel that he is quite domineering with just a few words, but she likes that kind of attitude.

Around 6 p.m., after Yang Ke bought some small gifts for Michelle before heading to the villa on the outskirts of Shanghai, she dared not speak loudly.

"These checkpoints are really..."

Michelle's expression was a little strange, mainly because she really didn't expect Guan Juer to be so cunning.

"Are you kidding me? She hasn't even tried it yet."

"How about that? Are you happy now? You can enjoy this special treatment before she does."

Yang Ke said jokingly.

After all, Michelle wanted to compete with Guan Juer before, but now she doesn't want to anymore. But since you don't want to, I want you to compete first. Isn't that interesting?

That's why he called Qu Xiaoxiao over; mainly because this girl is very adaptable.

I might accept what Fan Shengmei says, but it's pointless to force her.

Besides, Fan Shengmei just earned 50 yuan and has been taking Qiu Yingying and Guan Juer out for a good time these past two days. She's not going to come to Yang Ke and act subservient.

"Brother Yang, this villa is really luxurious."

Michelle looked at the mansion, which was several times larger and more luxuriously decorated than her own, and couldn't help but sigh.

"What's the big deal? As long as you listen to me, this is bound to happen sooner or later."

Yang Ke earned 5% of Huaxin Securities' shares from Michelle, so he certainly wouldn't mind buying her a villa to live in.

"Yes, Brother Yang, you're so kind."

Michelle loved hearing sweet words from people who were willing to spend money on her.

A short while later, Qu Xiaoxiao drove to the villa and, seeing Michelle, roughly guessed what had happened.

"Brother Yang, who is this?"

Michelle knew, of course, that Yang Ke had called someone else, but for the sake of becoming a senior executive at Huaxin Securities and the allure of a villa, she pretended not to know anything.

"This is Qu Xiaoxiao. You two will be best friends tonight."

"Xiaoxiao, this is Michelle."

After waving his hand to let Qu Xiaoxiao come over, Yang Ke put his arm around her waist and began to introduce her.

"I thought it was Sister Fan, but it turns out to be the new sister."

Qu Xiaoxiao knew what was going on just by looking at Michelle's expression.

"Isn't that great? You should be happy to be introduced to a new friend."

Yang Ke didn't pay attention to Qu Xiaoxiao's tone.

Anyway, this wasn't the first time Qu Xiaoxiao had joined in the fun with other people, and besides, Yang Ke knew how to handle her.

"What, really, Brother Yang?"

After Qu Xiaoxiao entered the villa, Yang Ke said to her that if she performed well that night, he would give her company even just a few business deals so that she could hold her head high in front of her father and put Qu Lianjie in a bad way.

It's interesting, really. Qu Xiaoxiao doesn't care about anything else, she just wants her father to value her more than Qu Lianjie.

But her father actually just wanted to give a portion of the family fortune to Qu Lianjie, so why would he care whether her business was successful or not?

Later, Qu Xiaoxiao's mother saw through this and directly transferred most of the Qu family's assets into numerous properties.

Of course, Qu Xiaoxiao's grandmother also deserves some credit for this; she proposed dividing the family property among Qu Lianjie before her death.

However, it cannot be denied that the fact that Qu's father wanted to leave half of his assets to Qu Lianjie after helping him pay off his 100 million yuan gambling debt already speaks volumes.
