Chapter 952 - 897: So Handsome Even My Sister Didn’t Recognize Me
Green Lake Park, the Water Pearl in the center of Shendong City, its lakeside Green Lake Road is the hub for the antique flowers and birds market. Coming here to play signifies taste and elegance.
At this moment, Da Fei is strolling with great taste among the plaza dance grandpas and grandmas, his mind in turmoil. He remembers last time he came here, he was merely a temporary water delivery worker earning less than 4000 RMB per month, but now his status has transformed, with more than 20 million RMB in savings as a small Tycoon.
However, the banquet I’m attending today is probably not a place where a mere 20 million fortune can show off. In short, I must carry myself with calm and composure.
Da Fei arrived early outside Bloodrose Cafe, a glass tower in a western iron-fenced garden, with a wooden sign on the iron door saying "Idle Person Keep Out."
Damn, can someone like me without an invitation and known by only a few people be considered an idle person? Da Fei felt it was inappropriate to knock on the door, so he decided to wait for Little Li and Little Fang to arrive, and then talk with them together. He went across the road to the lake railing, smoking while pretending to enjoy the scenery.
Da Fei’s appearance was instantly caught by the camera at the door of Bloodrose Studio.
Little Yu exclaimed: "Brother Tianhao? Is this the person?"
Lin Tianhao looked at the big screen, froze for a moment, and finally shook his head: "Can’t quite remember, but clearly it’s not him."
The beauty oh-ed and continued joking. After talking for five minutes, Little Yu checked the camera again and noticed something: "Hey, isn’t something wrong? This guy’s been standing across the road for several minutes and even made a phone call. He’s obviously waiting for someone, right?"
Lin Tianhao was astonished for a moment and then stood up laughing: "I better go ask him."
It’s currently 5:30 in the afternoon, the sky is gradually darkening, and everything seems dim behind Da Fei’s sunglasses. Damn it, dealing with women is a hassle—living in the suburbs I’m already here, yet they’re still dilly-dallying on the road.
While feeling bored, suddenly someone greeted from behind: "Are you Brother Ding?"
Da Fei’s eyebrows jerked upward as he glanced back at a handsome, poised, upright man in a suit, greeting him uncertainly. It was the long-lost pretty boy Lin Tianhao!
Damn it! Who’s your brother? Get lost and don’t try to compete with me! Da Fei laughed heartily: "Oh, it’s Mr. Lin, long time no see!"
"So it really is Brother Ding!" Lin Tianhao then came forward and shook hands: "Sorry for keeping you waiting, just couldn’t recognize you inside for a moment."
I’m so dashing I almost don’t recognize myself, let alone others! Da Fei chuckled: "No worries, for such an important tea gathering, I naturally had to tidy up too."
Lin Tianhao laughed: "Please come inside, Brother Ding."
If I go in just because you told me to, doesn’t that show no character? Da Fei shook his head and smiled: "I’ll wait a bit, they’ll be here soon."
Lin Tianhao smiled: "Alright, I’ll wait with you!" He then took out a pack of foreign cigarettes that Da Fei hadn’t seen before.
A cigarette is indeed the greeting gift for men, Da Fei accepted one readily, and Lin Tianhao immediately brought out a lighter.
Damn it! This is too gentlemanly, even I feel overwhelmed! But if I were to say "No, I’ll do it myself," it would seem too stiff and lose composure. So, Da Fei naturally took a deep puff and praised: "Mr. Lin, good cigarettes!"
Lin Tianhao smiled lightly: "What has Brother Ding been busy with?"
Damn it, what I hate most is being asked what I’m busy with. I’m busy conquering the world, don’t even have time to sleep, you understand? Da Fei exhaled a long smoke ring: "Just messing around to earn a living, it’s laughable to say it aloud to Mr. Lin."
Lin Tianhao seemed to agree with an "Oh": "Does Brother have an interest in gaming? Your game account is now valued at no less than a million, normal jobs can’t compare to gaming anymore. If Brother gets tired, why not try gaming full-time?"
Is he offering me a job? What a good guy! But alright, with nothing else to chat about, we’ll talk about games then. Da Fei feigned surprise: "A million? Yen?"
Lin Tianhao laughed: "Of course, it’s RMB, but I believe even in US Dollars someone would want to buy. But Brother’s account is a gold-laying hen, best not to sell."
Da Fei was surprised: "Is it that easy to make money from gaming? If that’s the case, the entire nation might as well game!" Well, I’ve gotten a bit addicted to playing naïve.
Lin Tianhao laughed heartily: "It’s because starting from a high point makes earning easier. Ordinary players might only manage average daily Gold Coin expenses in the game. Bloodrose Guild is quite a high starting point; in the game, it’s like a high-profile gold rice bowl in a big company. Moreover, Southeast Asia and South America two new regions open today, the market will only grow bigger, Brother shouldn’t miss this chance, seize the opportunity if you can."
Da Fei "Oh-ed": "Mr. Lin’s words do make me tempted, but I’m not particularly good at playing."
Lin Tianhao smiled: "I’m not exceptionally good either, but once you’re in the beauty expert guild, it’s hard to be bad. Brother’s account is already level 50 just idling in an instance, only a large guild would give such perks!"
Da Fei couldn’t help but yearn: "I really must cherish these benefits! By the way, since many countries play this game, which country is the best?"
Lin Tianhao laughed: "That’s hard to say. Our China Region is quite skilled, but if you want to say the best, it could be the United States, many of their cards have yet to be revealed..."
At this time, in Bloodrose Studio, the scene of Lin Tianhao with a stranger talking by the lake fell onto the camera screen. Little Yu exclaimed: "So he really is the legendary brother-in-law! So this is how he looks?"
A crowd of beauties laughed: "Is that right? Let’s see!"
"Can’t see, his back is to us!"
"Little Yu, rewind the surveillance video from before!"
Little Yu laughed: "Alright, beauties, prepare yourselves!"
When a man in a full white suit, with small sunglasses, and a big side-parted hairstyle appeared on the screen, all the beauties froze and then burst into laughter: "A white suit, some men really dare to wear it!"
"Hey hey, the suit even comes with a vest, this look is too retro, like what you’d see in a wartime drama from the Republic era!"
"A comrade infiltrating the enemy lines!"
"Don’t say it, it really resembles so! What on earth does this brother-in-law do?"
"Just ask him later, won’t we find out?"
...
At this moment, Da Fei still doesn’t realize that he’s left a deep impression on the beauties, and he’s chatting happily with Lin Tianhao. Just then, his phone rings. No need to guess, it’s Little Li – she’s definitely arrived.
Da Fei doesn’t rush to answer. He quickly turns around to look, and sure enough, standing outside the cafe are two beauties in long coats, short skirts, and tight pants. One with a ponytail is looking around while on the phone, the other with shoulder-length hair is making direct eye contact with Da Fei. It’s Little Fang and Little Li!
Little Fang instantly greets, "Mr. Lin!"
Little Li can’t help but exclaim, "Brother?"
Oh my! Looking at their outfits, Da Fei’s mind explodes! Why wear such tight pants! Why wear such short skirts! Thankfully, Brother came back today; otherwise, who knows if the gentleman beast beside him would have made a move!
Lin Tianhao immediately waves and laughs, "Everyone’s here, come in then!"
Little Fang sees Da Fei’s new look and can’t help but exclaim, "Brother, it really is you!"
Little Li is even more overwhelmed, "I almost didn’t recognize you, Brother!"
Lin Tianhao laughs, "Truly remarkable, even his own sister doesn’t recognize him."
Oh my, finally some sensible talk. Da Fei coughs slightly, "Then hurry inside, Mr. Lin has been outside keeping me company in the wind for ages."
Lin Tianhao laughs, "Oh, it’s more convenient to smoke outside!"
At this point, two beauties dressed as maids in black and white open the iron door and greet him, "Welcome!"
Little Fang exclaims, "Wow! So trendy, so Japanese maid style!"
Da Fei promptly laughs, "No need for courtesy, no need for courtesy." Oh my, even the two at the door are such beauties. This Bloodrose Studio is truly extraordinary! No, no, can’t just foolishly laugh it off, maintain your composure! Steady, steady!
Led by the maids, Da Fei and the group enter the cafe, which is dimly lit but filled with a refreshing fragrance – the scent of women!
Just then, "boom" "boom" sound twice, the hall suddenly lights up brightly, music starts, confetti shrouds Da Fei and the group, and a crowd of beauties applauds and cheers, "Welcome new guild members Blood Arrow Linglong, Blood Arrow Fragrance, Junxiang!"
So many beauties! For a moment, dazed by the shower of confetti, Da Fei is overwhelmed!
Little Fang and Little Li quickly bow to introduce themselves, "Thank you, everyone! You’re too kind! My name is Shen Fang, I’m Blood Arrow Fragrance."
"My name is Ding Jiali, I’m Blood Arrow Linglong."
The beauties all exclaim, "Wow! So pretty, so pure, as expected from Mr. Lin’s recommendation!"
Little Fang and Little Li wave their hands repeatedly, "The sisters here are prettier. Our Bloodrose Guild truly lives up to its name!"
Lin Tianhao coughs slightly, "Brother Ding, it’s your turn to introduce yourself!"
Da Fei finally snaps back to reality, "I’m their brother, guardian, my name is Ding Junfei, my game name is Junxiang, my gaming account has always been run by Little Sister, sorry for the trouble to the organization."
The beauties all utter an "Oh" in unison.
Then another beauty eagerly asks, "Brother Junfei, your style is so trendy, what exactly is your profession?"
Oh my! Can we not ask about my profession? Alright, laborers are glorious, let’s maintain composure confidently!
Da Fei coughs slightly and coolly says, "I’ve done many things, used to be in engineering (bricklaying), then into organization marketing (multi-level marketing), later into logistics (water delivery), and then risk investment (lottery). Ah, it’s just like that."
"Wow!" Instantly, the beauties are all stunned! Lin Tianhao laughs without saying a word, Little Li looks odd, and Little Fang bites her lip holding back laughter.
Just then, a woman dressed in a white business suit with a black skirt, clearly a standard corporate female boss appears, and the room suddenly goes quiet. No need to guess, the president has arrived, and sure enough, she has more aura in person than on the website!
Zhou Qing smiles and comes forward to shake hands, "Hello, three new members, I’m the president Bloodrose Rosa Zhou Qing. Our gathering is simple, just some casual dining, drinking, and getting to know each other. If interested, you can also sing, so don’t be constrained, treat this like a regular Western restaurant."
Little Fang and Little Li quickly say, "Thank you, President!"
And just at the moment when Da Fei shakes hands with Zhou Qing, he feels the softness and warmth of her hand, and his heart skips a beat! This is what it feels like to touch the skin of a legendary beauty! Brother won’t wash his hands today, just use this hand to savor it?
Zhou Qing indeed laughs, "As expected of Brother Junxiang, seeing is far better than hearing, you are very handsome, we’re all grown-ups still playing games, hope Brother Junxiang won’t laugh at us!"
Ahahaha, the president says Brother is handsome! This is definitely true, not flattery! Da Fei feels like a spring breeze, "Oh, it’s my two little sisters who are taken care of by the president, just now Mr. Lin was discussing the game with me, this industry has prospects and taste!"
Zhou Qing laughs, "Alright, then let’s order, we have famous dishes from Italy, France, Australia, please enjoy."
All the beauties cheer loudly, "Time to eat!"
Is it just dining? Da Fei breathes a sigh of relief but also feels disappointed, isn’t there any drama? Or is this a hidden program?
At this moment, Lin Tianhao laughs, "Brother Ding, let’s sit at the window seat, the night view is better there."
We? Oh my, get lost, Brother wants to sit with the beauties at a big table! Da Fei laughs, "Sure, we didn’t finish our chat earlier, I’d like to hear more guidance from Mr. Lin."
Little Fang laughs, "Mr. Lin’s guidance? Sounds great, we’ll join in to listen!"
Oh, sit with us, huh? Brother’s great harem dinner is interrupted by a guy surnamed Lin, talk about ruining the moment!
