This was exactly why he had come here, because simply mentioning an involvement with a high-class courtesan wouldn't have interested Duan Minglang in the least.
Now that he had the woman's contact information, he could approach Duan Minglang. Have the woman devise a plan to set up Chen Kai—Zhang Liang had already realized that with his own power alone, he likely couldn't persuade the woman to cooperate with him.
Her gaze upon him just now no longer held disdain, but if he were to cooperate with her, he would have to offer a significant amount of money.
Zhang Liang, as he stood now, was clearly unwilling to spend that money, especially since he really couldn't afford it.
But fortunately, behind him stood a big boss: Duan Minglang.
Zhang Liang believed that as long as he told Duan Minglang the story of Chen Kai and Xu Xin, the man would certainly part with some money, and then he could use it to tarnish Chen Kai's reputation.
His thoughts were indeed correct.
