Chapter 79: Can’t Hold Back, Can’t Hold Back at All
TL: YYang
Jinzuan was the location Wan Renmin chose. It was not far from Nanjing Restaurant, only a ten-minute drive. Since all five people present had been drinking, they called for designated drivers at the restaurant entrance to go there.
Jinzuan only had a KTV on the second floor. The first floor was for dining, the third floor was a sauna, and the fourth floor and above were for accommodation, basically satisfying the one-stop service of eating, drinking, playing, and sleeping.
Shen Yuan estimated that it would end very late today, so he might as well get a room here after singing karaoke. That would save him the trouble of running around again.
Wan Renmin booked a business suite. The space was quite large, at least 50 square meters, but there were only 5 of them in total, so it inevitably seemed empty.
Wan Renmin had drunk a lot at the restaurant just now. At this moment, his face was flushed. He put his arm around Shen Yuan’s neck and said:
“President Shen, although I’m a bit older than you, I feel that we hit it off very well. Why don’t we just call each other brothers? You call me brother, and I’ll call you younger brother. What do you think?”
Shen Yuan’s eyelids twitched. Calling a middle-aged man of at least fifty a brother was a bit awkward. But Shen Yuan knew that this was just a pleasantry to close the distance. Maybe tomorrow when he woke up, Old Wan would still call him President Shen.
“Okay, then I’ll take the liberty of calling you Big Brother Wan.”
“Alright, Younger Brother Shen!”
Wan Renmin slapped his thigh, overjoyed, and then started pouring wine for Shen Yuan again.
Fu Zhengmei ordered a few songs for Wan Renmin, so Wan Renmin gave Su Xuewei a look, then put down his wine glass, smiled and greeted Shen Yuan, and then went to pick up the microphone to sing.
Wan Renmin and Shen Yuan were from different eras, so the songs he sang were all very dated, like “The Boat Tracker’s Love,” “A Fire in Winter,” and “The Girl from Alishan.”
But this Old Wan, although he was old, had a strong voice and could barely hold a tune.
Su Xuewei sat down next to Shen Yuan demurely and raised her wine glass cautiously. “President Shen, I’ll toast you.”
This girl Su Xuewei was also foolish. She clearly couldn’t hold her liquor, yet she poured herself a full glass, so full that the wine was about to overflow.
“No more drinking, I’ve had a bit too much tonight.”
Shen Yuan waved his hand in refusal, then changed the subject, “You probably don’t come to this kind of place often, do you?”
“Mmm.”
Su Xuewei replied in a low voice.
Shen Yuan glanced at Wan Renmin and Fu Zhengmei and found that they were not paying attention to this side. Only then did he say in a low voice, “If you don’t want to come in the future, then don’t. It’s just a job after all.”
Su Xuewei raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at Shen Yuan, then shook her head gently.
“Sigh~”
Shen Yuan sighed slightly. In fact, he could understand Su Xuewei quite well. In this society, not everyone was like him, with so much money in their bank account.
The vast majority of people were struggling for a living.
For Shen Yuan, this might just be an ordinary job.
But for a girl from an ordinary family like Su Xuewei, it was the source of income she relied on for survival. It probably wasn’t easy to get an internship at a big company like Guanting. How could she just give it up?
In any case, the purpose of this bad egg Wan Renmin was achieved. Calling such a girl out to socialize, any man would feel sympathy.
“Shen Yuan, why don’t you care if I want to come?”
Liu Menglu had been sitting on Shen Yuan’s left, pouting her lips, looking a little dissatisfied.
Shen Yuan smiled. “Do you need my concern? You have so many fish in your pond, like that G-Wagen guy today. He must have sent you a WeChat message, right?”
“Tch, you’re bringing up a sore subject.”
Liu Menglu pouted.
At the same time, she was also a little disappointed, because her usual tactics seemed to be ineffective. A scumbag like Shen Yuan didn’t care at all.
She had originally wanted to trap Shen Yuan, but now she was trapped by him instead.
Shen Yuan was very satisfied with Liu Menglu’s reaction. His goal was also achieved. The three steps back and one step forward had now completed the three steps back. The next step was to take one step forward.
“President Shen, what… what song do you want to sing? Should I go and order it for you?”
Shen Yuan turned his head. At this moment, Su Xuewei’s cheeks had a faint blush. The dim neon lights in the private room shone down, making Su Xuewei’s oval face look particularly beautiful. Coupled with her slightly uneasy expression, it made men feel a sense of protectiveness.
Shen Yuan thought for a moment, “Help me order a song called ‘Lie,’ and another one called ‘Finishing Move,’ thank you.”
Su Xuewei was slightly taken aback when she heard this, but she quickly reacted and said in a soft voice, “Mmm.”
“Shen Yuan, you’re not right.”
Liu Menglu watched as Su Xuewei got up and went to the song ordering station. She sat over with her body turned to the side and whispered in Shen Yuan’s ear, “Aren’t you a scumbag? The way you looked at her just now was almost like you were shooting sparks.”
“Was I?”
Shen Yuan quietly watched Su Xuewei’s charming back.
“Of course you were!”
Liu Menglu said with some dissatisfaction.
Liu Menglu and Shen Yuan were very close. Shen Yuan could faintly smell the faint scent of perfume on Liu Menglu. He subconsciously reached out his left hand.
He put his arm around Liu Menglu’s waist and looked directly at her. “The way I look at you is also quite sparky.”
Liu Menglu squirmed uncomfortably. She originally wanted to break free, but then she thought, let this scumbag take advantage of her for a bit.
Liu Menglu met Shen Yuan’s gaze, thought for a moment, and said, “No, the way you look at me is not like that. The way you look at me is only with desire, not with emotion.”
“This is your advantage. In fact, no matter which point a woman uses to attract a man, the final result is the same.”
“What is the final result?”
Liu Menglu asked, puzzled.
“Of course it’s rolling in the sheets.”
“You…”
Liu Menglu was so angry. This man always led her into a trap every time they chatted.
But Shen Yuan was also frank. Unlike some men who clearly coveted her body but insisted on calling it love.
Isn’t that just being a bitch and wanting a monument to your chastity!
Shen Yuan was not satisfied with just hugging her.
He explored up and down.
Coach Liu was indeed a fitness coach. Although there was not a trace of fat on her waist.
But it still felt particularly soft.
And Liu Menglu felt a tingling and itching sensation.
She couldn’t help but tremble.
She found that her body was a little off, and quickly grabbed Shen Yuan’s big hand to stop him. “Okay, that’s enough.”
“Of course it’s not enough.”
Shen Yuan attacked quickly.
‘Damn, this is amazing!’
He immediately withdrew his hand. After all, there were other people present.
When he had made his move just now, he had also been paying attention to the other three. Wan Renmin was singing, Fu Zhengmei was concentrating on watching him sing, and Su Xuewei was ordering songs and not looking this way.
“You bad guy!”
Liu Menglu’s pretty face was flushed. She said coquettishly, looked around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, she straightened her dress.
“Coach Liu, I just touched the ball. I still want to play a bit. That’s not too much to ask, right?”
Shen Yuan said with a smile.
“Don’t even think about it!”
Liu Menglu pouted her lips, twisted her waist and moved a little to the side, keeping a certain distance from this pervert Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan’s song had been ordered. After Wan Renmin finished singing, he pushed Shen Yuan’s song to the top of the queue and then handed him the microphone with a smile.
“I have a few good prospects, so to speak, I’m not lonely…”
Shen Yuan held the microphone in his left hand and put his right hand in the pocket of his jeans, quietly watching the constantly changing screen.
This song, “Lie,” was his specialty. Every time he sang it, he could get into it.
But Shen Yuan didn’t know why the protagonist of the MV was clearly a simp, while he was a scumbag, yet he could still get into it.
“I don’t have any dark shadows or demons, you really don’t have to take it to heart…”
Shen Yuan’s voice was very magnetic, with a youthful clarity. His pitch and tone were on point for this song. In addition, the emotional perspective of the song was very unique. He kept pretending not to care, but in fact, it was just being stubborn.
Shen Yuan’s voice, combined with this faintly sad melody, made everyone present turn their gaze to Shen Yuan.
From Su Xuewei’s angle, she could only see Shen Yuan’s side profile and his tall, slender figure.
He had clearly shown a worldly and slick side during dinner and drinks, but now when he was singing, he seemed lonely and melancholic.
Su Xuewei felt a sense of disconnect, as if these two things should not appear in the same person.
Su Xuewei actually really liked this song. When she was in junior high and high school, boarding at school, her happiest time was after the evening self-study session, curled up in her quilt, listening to music with her headphones on.
“I’m not lying, why should I lie…”
Su Xuewei couldn’t help but hum along softly.
And Liu Menglu also silently watched this tall figure, quietly listening to that catchy voice, and couldn’t help but smack her lips.
“When Shen Yuan is not being lecherous, he’s still a little handsome.”
After the song ended, Wan Renmin took the lead in clapping. After all, he was not from the same generation as the young people and couldn’t feel the mood of this song, but at this time, he should clap vigorously.
Wan Renmin knew in his heart that this order was basically secured.
“Younger Brother Shen, you sang really well!”
“Your voice is great, and you’re very emotional!”
Wan Renmin started to flatter him, and Fu Zhengmei also said with a smile, “Yes, President Shen sings so well, I think he could debut as a singer!”
“Younger Brother Shen, sing another one! Help us wash our ears again!”
Wan Renmin said with a smile.
Shen Yuan waved his hand, not paying much attention to this flattery, and then sang another song, “Finishing Move,” under the flattery of the crowd.
The karaoke session continued until 11 o’clock. Before leaving, Wan Renmin held Shen Yuan’s hand tightly with his warm, large hands. “Younger Brother Shen, I never thought that at my age, I could still make a friend like you across generations.”
“We must get together often in the future!”
“Okay, no problem.”
Shen Yuan smiled faintly. He thought to himself that Wan Renmin was probably about to reveal his true purpose for tonight.
Sure enough, Wan Renmin continued, “Speaking of decoration, our Guanting is absolutely professional. I sincerely hope that we can cooperate, and you can also experience our Guanting’s service.”
Shen Yuan smiled. “I’ve only looked at two companies. In fact, your designs are both very professional. At the same price, I will definitely choose the company with more generous materials.”
“But you can rest assured, I will definitely give you priority consideration.”
Wan Renmin’s tone became even more excited. “Good, good. You don’t have to worry about the materials and home furnishing brands. I’ll talk to my subordinates later. It will definitely be to your liking.”
“Okay, then that’s it for tonight.”
“There’s one more thing.”
Wan Renmin gave Shen Yuan a mysterious look, then leaned over and whispered in his ear, “If President Shen has no plans for tonight, the third floor here is a sauna. The service is not bad. Let’s relax well.”
Shen Yuan’s mouth twitched. Sure enough, there was a reason why this Wan Renmin had arranged the karaoke here.
But he looked down on those fast-food services. He shook his head and said, “Next time. I have something to do tonight.”
“Okay, then next time for sure!”
Seeing that they were almost done talking, Fu Zhengmei also came over to say goodbye. “President Shen, then we’ll go back first. See you next time.”
“Okay.”
Shen Yuan nodded and couldn’t help but glance at Su Xuewei, who was standing not far away.
Fu Zhengmei immediately understood and smiled knowingly. “Xuewei is my apprentice. I will safely send her home.”
“Okay.”
Shen Yuan nodded, then let them take the elevator downstairs first. He then said to Liu Menglu beside him, “Should I call a car for you?”
“What about you?”
Liu Menglu saw that they had all gone downstairs. She walked over and linked her arm with Shen Yuan’s, looking up at him with her delicate face.
“I’ll just get a room here and sleep.”
“Why get a room? Don’t you have a place to sleep?”
Liu Menglu blinked her beautiful eyes.
“Or will you take me in?”
“…”
