I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!

You can’t say this guy’s reaction wasn’t incredibly quick. Before anyone else in the room could react, he had already handed over his business card, leaving the host a bit flustered.

Shen Dong certainly hadn’t expected these youngsters to pull such a move on him, but accepting the business card wasn’t without its perks. Who knows, there might be potential for collaboration in the future. These were truly the sons of wealth, born and raised with silver spoons in their mouths. Shen Dong had just noticed the one who was the most extravagant with his money.

He didn’t show any sign of regret when splurging, unconcerned about nickel-and-diming the young ladies. Just now, a few of the girls had cunningly ordered the most expensive wines, yet this carefree gentleman didn’t call them out on it. So now, it was quite clear what kind of person he was—someone who wasn’t stingy with his money at all.

It could be beneficial to get to know such a person. If a financial issue arose in the future, this generous gentleman might just be able to help Shen Dong out. In the process of exchanging business cards, Shen Dong had already thought through an array of possibilities.

He had figured out everything about their future dealings, and this gentleman—whose business card was the first to be handed out—probably had no idea that someone had already speculated so much about him. Feeling rather pleased, he wondered if accepting his business card meant he had spent a significant amount tonight at the bar?

Seeing the gentleman confidently hand out his business card, everyone looked on with envy, and soon they too began offering their own, eager to make the acquaintance of an influential figure like Mr. Shen. When Kang Yue emerged, she witnessed such a scene, and the young gentlemen, upon seeing her, were very curious to find out if she might be the boss’s wife.

"Mr. Shen, this must be the lady boss, right? She’s really quite beautiful. None of the hostesses inside compare to her in looks," a drunken man blurted out with a slurred speech, which immediately changed the atmosphere among those present. Zhang Tao, the first to give a business card to Mr. Shen, spoke up:

"What are you babbling about? You start spouting nonsense after a little drink—have you no shame? Once you sober up, remember what respect means. If she’s the boss’s wife, you can’t compare her to the hostesses."

Kang Yue wasn’t particularly offended, but Zhang Tao was exceptionally strict about respect and wouldn’t tolerate any impertinence towards her. After Shen Dong realized what had happened, he patted Zhang Tao on the back; this kid was not bad at all, more pleasant than he had expected, and quite emotionally intelligent.
