Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: The Story of the KTV

Not long after, the room attendant warmly pushed in a cart delivering fruit platters and drinks.

Seeing those bottles with English labels, Li Jing knew they probably weren't cheap.

Not because the alcohol itself was particularly expensive, but because KTVs often set traps with these hard-to-decipher foreign wines, with astonishing prices.

However, Li Jing now had over two million in cash, so even if this place was expensive, it wouldn't cost him over a million.

After all, this was a KTV, not a casino.

On the contrary, Li Jing actually hoped that the spending here would be as high as possible within his limits, since the system's rewards would be greater.

So Li Jing wasn't worried about the price at all and opened a bottle of foreign wine without hesitation in front of the room attendant.

The attendant, who was a bit anxious about the price question, instantly showed his brightest smile today and immediately stood up respectfully, saying, "President Li, I'll pour the drink, you just enjoy yourself!"

For major clients, his main focus was ensuring Li Jing didn't waste a bit of effort.

He would direct all of his energy towards what Li Jing wanted to focus on, like picking up girls.

Seeing the attendant so attentively serving him, Li Jing was very satisfied; this was the kind of pleasure that a rich person should have.

Then, the dishes they ordered also arrived at the room.

Though expensive, the presentation was quite exquisite.

The two young women hadn't even waited for the dishes to be set up before they took out their phones to take all sorts of photos.

The luxurious KTV, expensive foreign wine, and exquisite dishes all provided Zhang Xinxin's social media with plenty of new material.

This trip was totally worth it!

Just these photos alone were enough to cover her social media for the next several days.

Surely, it would make others green with envy!

Zhang Xinxin's face was flushed with excitement, taking photos nonstop without any intention to actually eat the food.

In her view, for a modern sophisticated woman, eating was nothing; decorating her social media with photos was the most important thing, it was spiritual sustenance for sure.

Someone once said, material food can only fill your body, but spiritual food can enrich your soul!

Especially with so much rich material today, Zhang Xinxin couldn't help but take several sets of photos with different themes, planning to use them even next month.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xinxin couldn't help but turn to look at Li Jing not far away, her gaze gentle and affectionate, with a fire in her heart.

The other party was really top-notch; she definitely had to seize the opportunity.

Even if it meant sticking by his side like a little follower every day, at least her social media material would be enough in the future.

Compared to the ecstatic Zhang Xinxin, An Tong looked much more reserved, but she was still awestruck by the luxurious KTV, and it further awakened her deep-seated desire for a high-consumption lifestyle.

In essence, she was actually similar to Zhang Xinxin, liking to become more beautiful, enjoy shopping, and yearning for the refined life of a wealthy woman, with a natural filter for rich people, which was also the reason for her recent change of perspective towards Li Jing.

And it was precisely because their values were largely aligned that An Tong and Zhang Xinxin became close friends who talked about everything.

But the difference was, An Tong saw things more clearly and cherished her reputation more, deeply understanding that as an ordinary girl from out of town without an impressive education or a high-paying job, it was nearly impossible to marry into a wealthy family.

Hence, she set her goals on more realistic local boys, believing that as long as she dressed up enough and improved her own charm in her spare time, she would eventually find a suitable family to marry into.

But Li Jing's exorbitant spending these past two days, along with one upscale place after another bombarding her senses and heart, gradually shook her previously suppressed materialistic urges.

Especially seeing Zhang Xinxin unapologetically fawning over Li Jing, for the first time, An Tong fell into self-doubt and hesitation:

Should she seize her youth and go wild for once?

As for how to go wild...

She subconsciously glanced at Li Jing sitting not far away, and her ears turned red before she snapped back to reality...

Oh An Tong, are you drunk?

What's going on in your head!

It was obvious there couldn't be anything between her and Li Jing, couldn't her ability to read people tell her that Li Jing had no intention of getting into a relationship...

Especially now that he was so wealthy, his heart had probably become even calmer and more composed.

A guy like that wasn't someone she could dream of...

"Brother Jing, I'm feeling a bit dizzy, can you help me to the bathroom?"

While pondering, An Tong suddenly heard a voice so sweet it gave her goosebumps, and she immediately looked up, seeing the coquettish Zhang Xinxin once again running over to Li Jing and acting coy.

Seeing Zhang Xinxin deliberately fall onto Li Jing's shoulder, An Tong's eyebrow instantly shot up, clearing away the entangled and complex emotions she had a moment ago; she just wanted to see what mischief Zhang Xinxin was up to now.

Watching Li Jing support Zhang Xinxin towards the bathroom, An Tong quietly got up and followed them stealthily, cautious like a guilty thief despite the room's noisy music.

Meanwhile, Li Jing, helping Zhang Xinxin in the bathroom, was unsure whether she was really drunk or just faking it.

But taking this opportunity to hold her soft fragrant shoulder made Li Jing feel pretty good both emotionally and tactually, so he didn't bother questioning her little tricks.

As a man, could he really come off worse from a girl?

Thinking this, Li Jing casually asked, "How are you feeling, need to throw up?"

He wasn't lying; after drinking so much mixed alcohol earlier, even he felt a bit dizzy, let alone a young woman.

Yet Li Jing clearly underestimated Zhang Xinxin's alcohol tolerance, as she could actually drink more than many guys, a skill she intentionally cultivated.

An Tong, fully aware of this, stood at the bathroom entrance pretending to play with her phone, all the while discreetly observing the two inside.

Even An Tong herself didn't know why she was doing this, it just seemed instinctive to check on what was happening inside once she saw Zhang Xinxin bring Li Jing into the bathroom.

Otherwise, she'd probably lose sleep over it all night.

"I do feel like I need to throw up a bit..."

Zhang Xinxin went along with Li Jing's words, her flushed oval face paired with dreamy eyes, her delicate features combined with an alluring expression made the air between them instantly more ambiguous, even making Li Jing's throat a bit dry.

Was this the allure a woman of this quality and caliber exuded? No wonder those rich kids hung out with models and influencers all the time.

What normal man could resist this pull, which wasn't just psychological but a natural physical reaction, too?

No wonder some leaders couldn't escape the charms of beautiful women.

In the past, Li Jing had merely thought those leaders were too lustful, but faced with this scene now, how many officials could withstand such a test?

"Brother Jing..."

Zhang Xinxin's charming voice, seeming to dive into one's soul, sounded once more.

Li Jing felt a tingle as if electricity coursed through him, and looking down, he saw Zhang Xinxin leaning on his shoulder with a mesmerized gaze, her significant softness pressing sideways against his arm, flattening to reveal a large expanse of captivating fairness from her strapless top.

"My head's really dizzy, I just want to..."

"Jiajia, are you okay?!"

Just as the soft-faced Zhang Xinxin opened her arms, about to fall completely into Li Jing's embrace, a figure suddenly rushed in, feigning concern and surprise:

"Jiajia, how did you get so drunk?!

Oh dear, if I knew you would be like this, I wouldn't have let you drink so much. Don't vomit on Li Jing, quick, I'll help you inside to throw up!"

Out of nowhere, An Tong appeared, instantly breaking the rising tension and allure in the bathroom.

Especially since Zhang Xinxin, who was about to make a big move fueled by alcohol, was caught off guard, she didn't even have time to speak before being swiftly pulled into a stall by An Tong.

Questioning, dragging, closing the door.

An Tong did it all in one swift motion, doubting she'd ever manage such a smooth move again in her life.

Li Jing was taken aback for a moment, blinking in surprise; even though he regretted it slightly, he wasn't in a hurry. Instead, he chuckled and glanced at the stall where the two girls had secreted themselves, then returned to the main sofa in the room.

With one hand holding a drink and the other picking up a piece of dessert, he savored them slowly.

Nowadays, he was all about maintaining a good mindset, going with the flow, and gradually enjoying everything around him.

After all, why rush when you're enjoying life? Take it slow.

Now that he was wealthy, there was no need to actively pursue anything; everything would naturally come to him alongside the allure of money.
