53: Chapter 52 I'm too busy; there's no man I can't conquer.

"Hello."

"Handsome, did you miss your big sister?"

Xu Luo was very bold, her voice sweet and full of temptation.

But Lin Feng knew that this was nothing but a facade.

If it were before his rebirth, this single sentence would have been enough to make Lin Feng work like a dog for her.

"Senior, you surely didn't call me just to compliment my looks, did you?"

"I didn't misjudge you; you're quite smart."

"Thanks for the compliment, tell me what you want."

Xu Luo on the other end of the line was clearly stunned; Lin Feng's icy attitude caught her off guard.

When she first entered the school, she had been the campus belle.

She was an existence that no boy could casually refuse.

Relying on her beauty and her understanding of men, she could move between several men at zero cost.

You have to know, during her four years of college, her reputation wasn't good.

Labels like slut, bitch, and bus were almost all attached to her.

But who would have known that, up until now, she was still a virgin.

Those stinking men hadn't even touched a single finger of hers.

Yet with just one phone call, these men would come running over like dogs, eager to fawn over her.

"Giggle, Junior Lin Feng, why are you so unromantic? I just wanted to ask you out for a meal and a movie."

"Is that so... Are there any other plans after the movie?"

"What kind of plans do you want, Junior?"

"We could find a place with no one around and discuss the academic theories of human reproduction."

"You naughty Junior, how dare you flirt with your Senior."

"Do you want to discuss it with me? That depends on your performance."

Xu Luo's tone was clearly triumphant.

Men are men after all; in the end, they still have to be manipulated by her at will.

"Forget it, my performance is always bad. Senior, I'm not going to chat with you anymore, hanging up."

"Hey, wait, what do you mean?"

"Exactly what I said."

"You aren't moved at all by my invitation?"

"Senior was the campus belle of Shen University back in the day; basically no man can ignore your beauty."

"Unfortunately, I am not those men."

"Oh? If you don't come to see me, how do you know you're different from them?"

"In this world, everyone has their own value. I'm just a nobody who started a company and made a few million; I'm not worthy of your notice."

"Why come and humiliate myself? Besides, there are quite a few women who like me. Senior is indeed tempting, but once the lights are off, it's all the same."

Xu Luo's breathing became noticeably rapid; on the other end of the line, she was fuming with rage at Lin Feng's words.

Since she was a child, which man had ever dared to disregard her like this?

Let alone talk to her in this tone.

"Lin Feng, I helped you before."

"Name a price. Is 50,000 enough? That's much more than what an agency outside would charge for a business license."

"Hey, do you think I'm doing this for money?"

"If not, then what? After my body? If you think it's not enough, just name your price."

...

What the hell, Lin Feng actually thought she was doing it for money.

Xu Luo's head was buzzing. Could this kid be a dense, straight man?

"Lin Feng, you've gone too far. Do you think I'm doing this for money?"

"You... you... I just wanted to take you to a banquet to introduce you to some connections."

"You don't appreciate kindness."

"Lin Feng, I saw that you have talent in business and wanted to introduce some people from the business world to you. You really don't appreciate kindness."

"Sorry, I don't have time."

Beep, beep, beep...

A hollow busy signal came from the phone.

Growing up, whether at school or in her current workplace, no man had ever dared to treat her like this.

"I'm so pissed off. This Lin Feng is too much."

She picked up her phone and dialed Fang Cheng's number.

The other party didn't answer. After calling over a dozen times, the call was finally picked up.

"My lady, I'm very busy right now, okay? Can't you let me get some sleep?"

"Stop the nonsense. I'm asking you, where is Lin Feng?"

"You're asking me, who am I supposed to ask? He's my boss now."

"You said you wanted to find him before, and I passed the message along, but he didn't give me a specific response."

"This kid, I invited him to a banquet, and he actually said he didn't have time."

...

"Uh, I got it. Yeah, coming right away. Wait a second. Xu Luo, you heard it too; I'm very busy. That's it, bye."

Click...

The call was hung up, and Xu Luo was stunned.

Now everyone was treating her like air.

There was really no ambiguous relationship between her and Fang Cheng.

He was also one of the few ordinary male friends she had during her student days.

Because they were from the same city, they were in the same class in middle school and high school.

Moreover, both sets of parents knew each other, so they could be considered half-childhood sweethearts.

They were too familiar with each other; there would simply be no chemistry between them.

"Luoluo, what's wrong? Look at how angry you are."

"Damn it, he actually didn't give me any face."

"Who? Who dares not give you face?"

"Lin Feng."

"That boy who's been very popular at Shen University recently?"

Xu Luo nodded, her face full of reluctance.

"Didn't you help him before? Why is he still making you angry?"

"Yanyan, I planned to have him accompany me to a banquet, but who knew I'd be rejected."

"Rejected you? That's interesting."

At an outdoor seat of a Starbucks cafe, a girl with a ponytail, wearing a white tracksuit and walking a small dog, sat opposite Xu Luo.

Her name was Liu Yan, Xu Luo's best friend.

She was also studying at a university in Shen City, but not at Shencheng University; she was at the Shen City Business School.

She was majoring in economics, currently a senior, and interning at a financing company.

Her parents were both in finance, and her family owned their own financial company.

She was also a young lady from a wealthy family.

Back then, she, Xu Luo, and Fang Cheng were all classmates in high school.

"Are you mocking me?"

"Our Goddess Xu, the former campus belle of Shen University, even now, her influence remains undiminished."

"Getting rejected by a man, if word got out, I'm afraid no one would believe it."

"Yanyan, how dare you make fun of me?"

"Hee hee, Luoluo, I won't make fun of you anymore. Are you planning to go to the banquet tonight alone?"

"There's no other way; I'll just have to go alone."

"Sigh, that kid Wang Jun, looks like he's going to stick to you like a plaster again."

"I'll just go for a bit and leave early."

"How about we don't go."

"Wang Jun's grandfather and my grandfather were old comrades-in-arms. My parents' status isn't suitable for this kind of occasion, so they asked me to go and wish him a happy birthday. Can I not go?"

"Sigh, you can't not go, and you have to drag me into it too. My parents are just small potatoes; it doesn't matter if I go or not."

"Damn it, it's all that Lin Feng's fault."

"Look at how angry you are. You haven't fallen for him, have you?"

"Tch, I just like the feeling of control. There isn't a man I cannot conquer; he won't be able to escape the palm of my hand."

Liu Yan glanced at her, shook her head, and said, "The bystander sees clearly, while the person involved is confused."

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

"Whether it's nonsense or not, you know best. Luoluo, let me remind you: you know what Wang Jun's status is. If I remember correctly, this guy is also from Shen University. Don't go harming your dream lover."

Hearing Liu Yan's words, a calmed-down Xu Luo's eyes trembled, and she felt a wave of lingering fear in her heart.

But she refused to concede verbally: "He deserves it. Who told him to reject me."

She looked at Liu Yan and whispered: "Don't let anything slip when the time comes. Don't mention Lin Feng."

"Hee hee, look, you are nervous after all."

"Hmph, I'm just afraid that before he's conquered by me, he'll be finished off by Wang Jun."

From head to toe, the only thing hard about Xu Luo was her mouth.
