The butler flattered:

"That little bastard dared to go against Tiger, he's completely ignorant of his own limitations. He should be grateful to die at Tiger's hands!"

Tiger was in high spirits and chuckled:

"By the way, Lin Wan said she hasn't received any good roles this year, and the audience has almost forgotten about her. Go and ask the entertainment company under the Qinglong branch if there are any suitable roles for her."

Lin Wan was the third-tier celebrity who walked out of there and glanced at the housekeeper out of the corner of her eye.

How could the butler dare to disobey Tiger's words to his face? This matter could be handled, but how to handle it and for how long was up to him.

Perhaps, if it drags on, Tiger will forget about it.

……

After putting Ziyan to sleep, Lu Xue went to Chen Li's house. Finding him not home, she thought of sending a message to ask, but then decided against it, fearing it might be too inappropriate and annoy him.

I was tired from participating in the parent-child sports day this afternoon, so I left him a note and went back to my room to sleep.

When Chen Li got home, he saw a note on the table that said "Goodnight" and had a smiley face drawn on it. He smiled with relief, knowing that being remembered was a warm and happy thing.

I was just getting ready for bed when my phone rang.

His conflict with Tiger was escalating to a fever pitch, and the Mu family was caught in the vortex. Old Man Mu had his bodyguards keep a close watch on Mu Ning Shuang at home, so it was unlikely that she would call in the middle of the night.

When I picked up my phone, sure enough, it wasn't her; it was Song Qingtong.

"Miss Song, what is it?"

Chen Li answered the phone and asked.

"I've been looking for you at your bar for ages, but I haven't seen you anywhere. Where are you?"

There was a lot of noise coming from the other end of the phone, and Song Qingtong asked.

"I'm sleeping at home, is that okay?"

Chen Li asked.

"What? You own such a big bar and you're just sleeping at home? Okay, I misjudged you. Come to the bar, I have something important to discuss with you."

Song Qingtong said in surprise.

"What can't we talk about tomorrow? Is it in such a hurry?"

Chen Li had been running around all day and was really tired, so he didn't want to go out.

"I'm about to say something that concerns the outcome of your battle against Tiger. Are you coming?"

Song Qingtong said in a seductive tone.

"Keeping people in suspense isn't a good habit. Okay, I'll be right there."

Chen Li hung up the phone, put on his clothes, went downstairs, and drove off.

……

New Century Bar: A tidal wave of sound, a chaotic dance of demons.

In a corner booth, Song Qingtong, with her long hair down, appeared in public wearing a low-cut short dress, a rare sight for her.

With her stunningly beautiful face, full breasts, and snow-white skin, she resembled a lonely midnight rose blooming under the lights.

The playboys around her had long noticed her, but her aloofness made them hesitant to approach her.

"Miss, may I have a drink?"

A gentleman wearing frameless glasses walked up to her with a wine glass in hand and asked gently.

"No, I have an appointment."

The gentleman glanced back at his brothers not far away. He had just boasted that he could make her laugh and drink with him within a minute.

After tonight, I'll take her to a hotel room for a romantic night.

If we return defeated, wouldn't that tarnish the reputation of the Hundred Women Slayer?

He's dated a lot of women—nurses, dentists, flight attendants, actresses, food bloggers… he's been involved in almost every industry he knows. While I wouldn't say he's an expert on women's minds, he's certainly a relationship expert.

There are several possibilities behind this indifference.

First, I have something on my mind and don't want to be disturbed.

Second, excessive wariness.

Third, she acts aloof, but is actually shy.

Fourth, he is secretly passionate and plays hard to get.

And so on...

He felt that the beautiful woman, resting her chin on her hand and seemingly lost in thought while playing with dice, agreed with the first and fourth points.

She had something on her mind and wanted to relieve her worries, but she also wanted to find someone she liked to drink with and confide in, and spend a romantic night together.

Initiating conversation makes you seem cheap.

Her true purpose was to feign aloofness and play hard to get.

The gentleman seemed to read her mind and took the initiative to start a conversation:

"I just think that this beautiful woman has a very unique temperament. It would be a great regret in my life to miss getting to know her. How about we play a game of comparing point values?"

"If I win, let's sit down and have a drink together."

He didn't ask any questions like "how," which showed his complete confidence in winning and that he felt he had the other person's mind under control.

Song Qingtong raised her eyes and said:

"You need to win against the people behind you first."

The gentleman turned around and saw Da Chenli yawning, standing lazily behind him. He raised the corner of his mouth and asked:

"Want to have a drink with a beautiful woman too?"

Chen Li shrugged and said:

"Don't get me wrong, she invited me here. She wants to talk to me. I'm not interested in drinking."

The gentleman shook his head and smiled:

"I've seen plenty of people like you who pretend to be nonchalant and act special. Want to try something?"

I was just about to go to sleep in the middle of the night when they woke me up and forced me to play a game called "Xiongjing". It was really frustrating.

Chen Li said helplessly:

"Playing is fine, but how about we bet on something?"

The gentleman said confidently:

"Whoever drinks this bottle of wine, pays for everything the lady has to do, how about it?"

Chen Li reached out his hand, letting him go first.

The gentleman picked up the dice cup, shook it confidently and quickly, and slammed it onto the table, decisively revealing the dice.

Five sixes, the highest possible score.

Immediately, this drew cheers from those around him, who all expressed their envy and wished he could win the heart of the beauty.

"Kid, it's your turn. Don't lose too badly."

The gentleman deliberately provoked the beautiful woman in front of her to show that he was different from her.

Chen Li grabbed the dice cup, swiftly swept it, and the five dice were instantly collected inside. He shook it a few times and then slammed it onto the table.

After a series of clanging sounds, the dice settled.

Chen Li reached out her hand and said;

"Don't accuse me of cheating, open it and see for yourself."

The gentleman scoffed:

"Fancy moves are useless; in the end, it all comes down to skill."

As he spoke, he lifted the dice cup and was instantly dumbfounded.

All five dice were split in half, and the total number of points they rolled far exceeded the number the gentleman had rolled, leaving him utterly astonished.

The same dice, no problem.

He opened the dice cup, so there's no problem.

How is it possible to shake the water in such a uniform way, dividing it into two evenly? It's like a ghost!

"That doesn't count!"

The gentleman was immediately displeased.

Song Qingtong simply sat quietly, watching the show unfold, waiting to see how Chen Li would bring this farce to an end.

I don't know why, but when I don't see him, his image always lingers in my mind. Even if it's late at night, I still want to see him and chat about something.

Chen Li deliberately mocked:

"If you can't handle it, don't play. I don't have time to waste on you. Don't waste my time picking up girls."

The gentleman's expression changed, and he sneered:

"Kid, do you know who I am? You dare to talk back to me? Believe me, I'll make you crawl out of here!"

His friends gathered around, shaking their heads and rubbing their hands together, eager to teach Chen Li a lesson.

Chen Li snapped his fingers and said to a passing waiter:

"Go get Ah Kun and throw these troublemakers out of here."

The gentleman smiled after hearing this and said:

"Ah Kun? Who do you think you are, calling Master Kun 'Ah Kun'? I'll see how you get out of this!"
