As expected, a few seconds later, a displeased voice came over the phone.
Wei Xuefeng didn't beat around the bush anymore. He blurted out, "CEO Ou, I saw your wife here. Do you want me to bring her back for you?"
The wife!!
"Where is she?"
Hearing his interest, Wei Xuefeng chuckled to himself, "Well, I don't really know where she is either. Maybe I should ask somebody?"
Wei Xuefeng deliberately stirred Ou Chengtian's interest, and even glanced around, feigning to ask for the woman's whereabouts.
"Spit it out, what do you want?" Knowing that Wei Xuefeng is not a straightforward person, Ou Chengtian didn't want to entertain him. What he most wanted to know right now was the whereabouts of the woman who still wasn't home.
"CEO Ou is indeed straightforward. You're truly worthy of being the CEO of Ounuo International." Wei Xuefeng didn't forget to flatter Ou Chengtian,
Ou Chengtian remained silent, just waiting for Wei Xuefeng to state his demand, and then give him an address, so he could retrieve the woman.
"A few days ago, I was interested in a chick, but I haven't been able to set up a date with her. So, how about this, CEO Ou, you help me arrange a date with her, and I'll tell you where your wife is?" Wei Xuefeng threatened without any change in his flirtatious nature.
The one thing about him was that he couldn't live without women. Also, if any woman could last more than a week with him, that would be quite an accomplishment on her part.
The saying "A woman is like clothes" really fit him well.
Ou Chengtian usually had no interest in other women, which was the complete opposite of Wei Xuefeng, who was interested in any woman with good looks.
Although he didn't want to help him arrange a date, if doing so could help him locate his wife at the moment, the trade would be worth it.
"Fine, deal," Ou Chengtian replied promptly.
Wei Xuefeng couldn't help but chuckle to himself. As always, Ou Chengtian had agreed without even asking who the woman was.
But then again, are there even any women in this world who would reject Ou Chengtian?
Except for the woman sitting in the corner, there probably aren't any others, right?
Wei Xuefeng gave Ou Chengtian an address and added: "Come quickly, CEO Ou, there are lots of beauties and hunks here."
He deliberately emphasized the word 'hunk', as though hinting that someone would be enticed by those handsome men.
Imperial City, she's actually there.
How could Ou Chengtian not know that the Imperial City Hotel was hosting a party today and that many celebrities, famous directors, and prominent figures from the business world were attending?
He was also invited to the party, but he couldn't make it because he had to return home.
Unexpectedly, although he didn't go, that damn woman went instead.
Furious, he picked up the coat thrown on the couch and stormed out of the room.
Seeing the ticking time bomb finally leave, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had been given a new lease on life.
They just silently prayed in their hearts for the woman who hadn't returned yet, hoping no domestic violence would occur that night.
Wei Xuefeng put his phone back in his pocket, picked up a glass of red wine, and slowly walked toward the dazzling woman sitting quietly in the corner.
Before he got to her, he found that someone else had beaten him to it.
His words proved correct: a hunk had come to snatch her away.
And that hunk was none other than Ruan Xiangchen, the most popular actor-singer superstar at the moment.
Why is he here?
Wei Xuefeng halted his steps, found a nondescript corner, and secretly observed the situation over there.
He didn't have a hobby of peeping at other people's wives with other men. He just knew that if he didn't keep a close eye on Xia Liyou, Ou Chengtian would strangle him.
Just as Ai Wei stepped away to answer a call, giving her some quiet time, a Peeping Tom came by.
"Why are you sitting alone? May I join you?" Though the line sounded like something a street thug would say, it appeared charming coming from Ruan Xiangchen's mouth.
Indeed, speech is an art, and tone and appearance are crucial factors.
However, he didn't leave a good impression on Xia Liyou, no matter how he said it.
"No need, I want some peace and quiet." Xia Liyou was cold and distant, not willing to engage in any conversation with him.
Despite the rejection, Ruan Xiangchen became more interested in the woman before him.
Who in here wouldn't know who Ruan Xiangchen is?
Those people would go out of their way to talk to him, but he couldn't be bothered. Now, when he was the one initiating the conversation, she showed indifference.
Was this woman truly oblivious of who he was or just playing hard to get?
Ruan Xiangchen let out a smile, choosing not to dwell on her words, whichever they were, it didn't matter to him.
He was only after the result and never paid attention to the process.
Without waiting for Xia Liyou's consent, Ruan Xiangchen took a seat next to her.
Xia Liyou didn't even glance at him, she just continued looking ahead, silent and peaceful, like an elf nestled deep in the woods.
No matter how bustling and bright the outside world was, with ethereal women and flashing neon lights filling the city, all the worldliness had nothing to do with her.
Even though he was seated right next to her, Ruan Xiangchen felt as if he was being kept outside of her world. As close as he was, so close that he could touch her with a simple reach, he felt a great distance between them.
He refused to believe that there could be a woman so indifferent to him.
Even if such a woman existed, she definitely wouldn't be in a place like this.
A place like Imperial City Hotel, where renowned figures from all walks of life mingled.
Where these figures gathered, it wasn't just a symbol of hypocrisy and extravagance, it could also represent decadence.
