196 Making Use of Each Other
Fang Han’s failure this time made Shi Jing feel even more uneasy.
Now that Shi Man was getting more and more famous in the school, she was worried that someone would use this momentum to investigate her. This way, they would discover that not only had she been chased out of the house by Shi Man, but they would also find out that she was working at the nightclub.
...That way, the noblewoman persona she had painstakingly built would completely collapse.
Shi Jing would never allow this to happen. She urgently needed someone to help her quickly escape her predicament.
Zhu Wen was the best target she had been eyeing for a long time.
This person was famous for being a hooligan in school, but his family was secretive. Even if he offended Shi Mu, he did not receive much punishment. Therefore, many boys in the school were willing to follow him.
Recently, Zhu Wen had been expressing goodwill to her.
She thought that her appearance was not bad. Although she was not devastatingly beautiful, she was still considered above average in school. Most importantly, she had been in the nightclub for a long time and knew how to capture a man’s heart. This would make her stand out among the noble ladies.
That was what Zhu Wen liked about her. He liked Shi Jing’s charming temperament very much. Recently, he had been waiting at the door of her class on time after school. There had been many rumors between the two of them.
Shi Jing looked at the new expensive bag on her phone and sent a screenshot to the social media app. After school at night, Zhu Wen came to see her with the new bag.
Many girls in Class C also took a fancy to this limited edition bag, but they had no way to get it. Now that they saw that a man was actually willing to hand the bag to Shi Jing, they immediately congratulated her with envy. “Jingjing, you’re really lucky! Young Master Zhu is so good to you. If I could have such a handsome and generous boyfriend, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!”
Shi Jing blushed shyly and said with a smile, “He, he’s not my boyfriend yet.”
Zhu Wen pretended to be gentle in front of the girl. He nodded and smiled gentlemanly. “Yes, I’m still pursuing Miss Shi Jing. I hope she will agree.”
The surrounding people immediately let out ear-piercing screams at his blatant confession.
Shi Jing enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded by people, but she did not want Shi Man to discover her recent situation. She had to catch Zhu Wen first before dealing with Shi Man. She reached out to take the bag from him and hugged him. She smiled shyly. “You, don’t spout nonsense in front of your classmates. Let’s leave quickly.”
Zhu Wen thought that she was shy. He raised his eyebrows and obediently followed her downstairs.
At night, Zhu Wen specially booked a candlelight dinner at the hotel. Under the ambiguous atmosphere created by the lights, Shi Jing officially agreed to confirm her relationship with him.
Outside the penthouse suite, the sound of water came from the bathroom. Zhu Wen stood in front of the window and looked at the bustling streets outside. He called Zhu Meng. “Brother, I’ll get it soon, but are you sure the Shi family will help us deal with Yi Zheng?”
On the other end of the phone, Zhu Meng was hugging a naked beauty. He smiled and kissed her on the lips before saying with a cynical expression, “Don’t worry, since Shi Man dared to expose Yi Zheng’s name in public, doesn’t this mean that there’s already a rift between the two families? Take down Shi Jing and let her convince the Shi family to join forces with us to deal with Yi Zheng. With the help of the richest man, will our Nighthawk be afraid of not being able to deal with Yi Zheng?”
“Brother, I’m afraid Yi Zheng isn’t that easy to deal with. We can’t let our guard down.” Zhu Wen frowned slightly. When he heard the sound of water behind him stop, he hurriedly said, “Alright, I’ll continue to get people to investigate who snatched the goods that were supposed to be sent to Hellgate. Brother, you have to keep an eye on Yi Zheng and see if there are any unknown forces behind him.”
“I got it.”
Zhu Wen hung up the phone and turned around to take the red wine from the waiter. He personally brought it into the room. When he saw the beautiful girl, his cold heart suddenly moved, and his dark eyes darkened. “Jingjing, has anyone told you that you’re really beautiful?”
“Thank you.” Shi Jing tidied her long hair and thanked him with a shy smile. “If you weren’t here, I’m afraid I would have gone out today to embarrass myself.”
She had deliberately spilled the wine on herself just now to give Zhu Wen a reason to bring her to a hotel room.
She could not wait to use him to deal with Shi Man. Shi Jing was not a naive person. She knew very well what price she had to pay to completely control a man. Fortunately, she could afford this price and enjoyed it.
After all, selling it to one man could allow her to live a carefree life. It was much better than working hard at the nightclub and serving countless men.
Zhu Wen thought that she was shy and smiled gently. “What’s wrong with that? You’re my girlfriend now. I’m just helping you solve a little problem. Isn’t this what I should do?”
He took her hand and sat on the sofa. He smiled and stuffed the wine glass in her hand. “Try it? This is the red wine my brother stored in the shop. If it wasn’t to celebrate our relationship, he wouldn’t be willing to take it out.”
