Li Hanxian indifferently picked up a cup of coffee, his gaze seemingly unintentionally sweeping over Rong Shengsheng, and spoke languidly, "Actually, I'm quite interested in that woman. If she could dance for me once more, I'm willing to offer five million."
Zhou Kuan nodded with understanding, "Yes, I'll release the news right away."
Having said that, Zhou Kuan left the office.
Rong Shengsheng's mind was in chaos, she stood rooted to the spot like a statue, taking quite a while to comprehend the meaning behind Li Hanxian's words.
He said he's interested in that woman??
He's already engaged to Rong Wanwan, yet he's interested in another woman?
What a scumbag.
Previously, she had envied Rong Wanwan for finding such a desirable gentleman, but now it seemed that Li Hanxian was too disgusting.
However... Li Hanxian is willing to pay five million...
Five million...
Rong Shengsheng's heart was completely swayed—wasn't it just a dance for Li Hanxian?
As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold. If she didn't risk the bait, she wouldn't catch the fish; to repay her debts sooner, even if it meant venturing into a wolf's den, she would take the risk!
When the time came, she'd secretly drug the wine, snatch the money, then slip away.
After that, she would never go to nightclubs to dance again.
Seeing Rong Shengsheng lost in thought, Li Hanxian hooked the corner of his mouth thoughtfully and rhythmically tapped his thigh with his fingers, "What are you thinking about?"
"I..." Rong Shengsheng squeezed out a smile, "I was wondering who the woman that could interest President Li is?"
"Definitely not you."
"I wouldn't dare to presume..."
To be precise, she didn't give a damn about the kind of man like Li Hanxian who looks in the pot while eating from his bowl. No matter how rich or handsome, what's the big deal??
What she valued more was a man's responsibility and commitment!
Five years ago that night, that man had also told her he would marry her.
But five years had passed, and there was no word from that man. She had no idea where he would have died.
He's a true scumbag!!
After work, Rong Shengsheng quickly left the company with her head down.
At the same time, Li Hanxian exited the elevator, staring coldly at Rong Shengsheng's retreating figure. He sneered and turned his head to instruct Zhou Kuan, "Tonight, make sure the nightclub is completely sealed. Not even a fly can get out!!"
Tonight, he would personally unveil the mask and see the woman's true face!
"Yes."
Zhou Kuan glanced at Rong Shengsheng's back with worry, praying in his heart that Rong Shengsheng wouldn't be that woman. Otherwise, what would happen to her two children??
"Hanxian?"
Dressed to the nines, wearing ten-centimeter heels, and swaying her hips like a snake, Rong Wanwan walked into the company with a smile in her eyes and took the initiative to hook Li Hanxian's arm. "You can't stand me up tonight."
A flash of surprise crossed Li Hanxian's eyes; only then did he remember that he had a dinner date with Rong Wanwan today.
He had never really cared about Rong Wanwan.
"What's wrong?" Rong Wanwan's beautiful almond eyes flickered, brimming with unshed tears as if she would cry out the next second, "Hanxian, you didn't accompany me yesterday!! Are you still not going to accompany me tonight?"
Seeing Rong Wanwan about to cry, Li Hanxian was troubled and replied perfunctorily, "I still have to work overtime tonight. You go eat first, I'll come to you after I finish."
"Why do you have to work overtime if you're the boss of the company?"
"This project hasn't been sorted out yet, it's rather troublesome."
Rong Wanwan pouted, hugging her arms and huffing in displeasure.
Lowering his stance, Li Hanxian's voice was deep and seductive, "I will definitely come tonight, alright?"
Rong Wanwan hesitated, then after thinking it over, decided to suppress the anger in her heart, "Don't lie to me!"
"Yeah."
Li Hanxian turned and went upstairs to his office.
Rong Wanwan walked out of the front door, looking defeated, no longer radiant as before. She seemed like a deflated ball, listless and dispirited.
Zhong Chunyu made a phone call, asking with concern, "How did it go? Did President Li accompany you to dinner today??"
"Mom....."
"Did he stand you up again?"
"Not exactly, he said he had to work overtime and told me to go ahead, he would come later."
"Overtime? I feel like he's deceiving you. Last night, I heard he was at the nightclub. Wanwan, you have to keep a close watch, don't let someone snatch President Li away."
"As long as I have a breath in me, no one can snatch him away!! You don't need to worry about that."
"That's not necessarily true. Five years ago, it was in a nightclub that a woman with ulterior motives drugged him, and then he had an affair with Rong Shengsheng. You were the one who reaped the benefits from that situation. If another woman drugs him and ends up pregnant, you'll have nowhere to cry!!"
Hearing these words, Rong Wanwan was so agitated she nearly burst into tears, her eyes reddened, her voice sounded aggrieved and trembled with the beginnings of a cry, "Mom, what should I do then??"
"You should stop filming for a while. From now on, follow Li Hanxian every step of the way. Marrying into the Li family is what's most important."
"Okay....."
Rong Wanwan clenched her teeth, her gaze ice-cold and cunning.
She was determined not to let any delusional woman succeed!!
She didn't go to the restaurant, instead, she waited at Feast Group.
It wasn't long before she saw Li Hanxian leave the company and get into a car.
She hurriedly followed, trailing Li Hanxian to the nightclub.
That moment, she trembled with anger, fear spreading from her heart to her extremities, her whole body cold with dread.
So it was true, Li Hanxian really did have someone on the side...
Damn it.....
She had to see for herself, just which shameless woman dared to seduce her fiancé?!
The Alluring Nightclub.
Rong Shengsheng changed into a beautiful dress, then looked at herself in the mirror. Her figure was graceful and voluptuous, her fair legs captivating, one could hardly tell she had given birth to two children.
Only her face was full of pockmarks, her skin sallow and dark, truly hard to look at.
She touched her cheek and sighed.
When could she truly be herself??
She picked up her mask and turned to leave, but just as she opened the door, a bucket of cold water was thrown over her.
It happened so suddenly, she didn't expect it and couldn't dodge.
She looked down to see her dress completely soaked.
"Who did this? Come out!!"
Gu Yanyan sneered, one hand on her hip, the other holding a bucket, and strolled out leisurely, warning, "So what if it was me?"
She was filled with resentment towards Rong Shengsheng.
Rong Shengsheng was just a substitute for her one night, but she caught Li Hanxian's eye.
What made her even angrier was the rumor that Li Hanxian was willing to offer five million just for Rong Shengsheng to dance for him!!
Why her??
She was the top performer at the Alluring Nightclub! Countless wealthy young masters worshipped at the hem of her pomegranate skirt, but no one had spent five million for a single night with her!!
And now some upstart bumpkin had stolen her thunder?
How could she accept that?
