Chapter 238 On the Way
Chapter 238 On the Way
The last girl who wanted to discuss philosophy with me,
It's still East Zero.
"We are the same kind of people."
Ji Xin became more and more excited as she spoke. Just as she said, she had found her kindred spirit. We spoke on the same wavelength, which made her feel a resonance of souls.
She hadn't had this experience in so long.
I've always felt out of place with my peers since I was little, and this feeling became even more pronounced after I went to university and entered the workforce.
Then loneliness and solitude surrounded me.
"You seem very excited? Was your show of affection and attitude towards me during our last meal just an act?"
"Of course not."
Ji Xin shook her head: "I've investigated you. ZG and NM in the provincial capital, Ya Hong in Liancheng, NT, NP computing power, and Three Kingdoms Entertainment City. Every time new documents came in with the investigation results, I dug into you again and again like searching for treasure. The more I learned about you, the more infatuated I became. So, this time I accepted your invitation, and as expected, NQ Enterprise really impressed me once again. It's normal for me to have feelings for such an outstanding person like you."
"Should I be happy, or flattered?"
"Shen Tianyi, you should be confident. Successful men don't lack women, but if a successful man wants to go far and last long, he should look for a woman like me."
"However, I do have quite a few women."
Is Wu Yingrong one of them?
I shook my head.
Ji Xin seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "There are just too many problems in her business dealings with Yu Chi Lin. You'd better not get involved."
"I don't lack women, and she doesn't yet have enough appeal to attract me."
"I really like what you said. Men are all driven by their lower instincts, indiscriminately accepting anyone who comes along; that's just being a stallion. But knowing how to use your lower instincts to choose a mate that's advantageous to you, that's being at the top of the food chain."
Bizarre yet realistic remarks.
I somewhat agree.
"But I already have a fiancée."
"I've investigated your circle of women thoroughly, and none of them are more outstanding or more suitable for you than me. You and I are a match made in heaven in terms of human relationships and social connections."
As the largest producer of synthetic diamonds in the provincial capital and even the whole country, and the largest exporter of synthetic diamonds in the country, I still underestimated the power of Ji Xin's family. This is an oligopoly with industry monopoly and transnational trade.
I was indeed like a transparent sheet of paper in front of her.
"Your fiancée, is she outstanding?"
I nodded.
"How do you compare to me?"
"You are the woman I've ever met who has moved me the most, besides her."
"I guess this attraction isn't because of my body."
"Of course. Your values and your state of mind give me the feeling that you were born to sleep with me, born to be my woman. Only by selfishly possessing your body and soul, and then monopolizing your time for a lifetime, will I be satisfied."
Looking at the woman before me, I couldn't calm my mind. This woman was a new-age woman completely governed by the laws of nature.
Innate intelligence.
A natural admiration for the strong.
It follows the law of the jungle, yet transcends the constraints of worldly rules.
In response to my remarks.
Ji Xin's face flushed, but her words remained even calmer: "I don't believe it, and I'm not convinced."
"I have a question. Someone like you should find someone within the system; that would be a perfect match."
Ji Xin made no attempt to hide her contempt: "How many men can keep me in check? How many men can stand up to me without feeling ashamed in my presence? Men like Su Tao and Tian Kai only dare to show off their peacock tails to Wu Yingrong. Facing me, they don't even have the courage to pick up a wine glass. What use are these kinds of men?"
"I always felt you were a bit unhealthy. There are quite a few young cadres in the provincial capital, at least Qiu Zhanyu is outstanding enough, so why didn't any of them pursue you? Or do you have a prejudice against men in officialdom?"
"I enjoy the violent destruction of money, but I am not keen on the exchange of power."
"On the contrary, my fiancée and I are a match made in heaven; I'm after money, and she's after power."
Ji Xin remained silent.
Debates yield no results.
Truths must clash.
"You said you wanted to conquer me."
"You're different from those women."
Are you afraid of me?
He nodded.
Ji Xin's family was far more powerful than I had imagined. My tricks were nothing compared to theirs, and being watched by such people was the last thing I wanted.
I even felt a sense of fear.
How could one not be afraid when facing the Ji family?
After drinking the red wine, Ji Xin stood up, walked slowly to my side, gently lifted her leg, straddled me, and kissed me without hesitation.
The red wine was astringent, and the scent of lipstick entered my mouth.
Damn it, the Heavenly Gang has been overturned!
I want to get up.
Ji Xin forcefully pushed me down onto the seat, then squatted down and looked up.
"Your life has completely captivated me; I long to be conquered by a man like you."
"You're sick."
"Yes, you are my cure."
I lifted a strand of the woman's hair with my fingers and twirled it around my little finger: "You really don't have to do this."
"Since you are afraid of me, then I will amplify your fear."
The movements were very clumsy.
Even clumsy.
I was amazed by the woman's boldness and openness.
But the thrill of conquest surpassed everything.
At that moment, I suddenly understood something that should resolve my previous confusion.
Men are meant to conquer the world.
Women are there to conquer men.
The taste was a bit strange. Seeing Ji Xin frowning and forcing herself to taste it, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?"
The woman stood up, picked up her wine glass, took a big gulp, and then swallowed it down like water.
It warmed my heart.
"I assumed you were very bold because you were experienced..."
"Virgins should not be a group to be ridiculed."
"I'm sorry, I wasn't mocking you. I'm thanking you for bringing me the joy of conquest."
"Of course, this is still a kind of exchange, to make you lower your guard against me."
Ji Xin sat down beside me: "Once you overcome your fear of me, can you take me to meet your fiancée—Liu Dongling?"
"People like you really scare me."
I frowned and sighed.
The worst-case scenario still happened.
"Don't worry, I only got a name, and the investigation has stopped. I want you to be my man, so naturally I'll leave you with one last layer of mystery."
"Thanks."
For the first time, I felt powerless.
This feeling of being unable to control everything is truly unpleasant.
As for me, ever since I won the lottery in Shanghai, I've been taking things very carefully, because what I'm afraid of is encountering someone like Ji Xin one day.
I'm glad to have come into the view of these people.
I am also terrified; I have no secrets from these people.
