Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses

Chapter 105



Chapter 105: Lin Xiyan: To Compensate, I Can Satisfy Some of Your Hobbies…

“This is the place…” Ye Tian arrived at the Linjiang City International Hotel by taxi. From Lin Canghai, he learned about tonight’s Dingfeng Banquet. Ye Tian saw this as his first step in establishing himself in Linjiang City.

“Sir, do you have an invitation?” As Ye Tian was about to enter, he was stopped by a security guard at the door, who looked at Ye Tian with a disdainful gaze.

As everyone knows, the protagonist always gets ridiculed wherever he goes, and Ye Tian was no exception. And this fool, attending a banquet wearing flip-flops? Wearing flip-flops to such an important occasion? It can be said that he’s quite unique among protagonists.

“I don’t have an invitation…” Ye Tian noticed the guard’s disdainful look, clenched his fists, and tried to suppress his anger.

“I’m sorry, sir, but you cannot enter without an invitation. Please leave,” the guard said.

Ye Tian gave the guard a deep look and then turned away. He knew that arguing with the security here would do him no good. His current priority was to find a way to get an invitation.

Ye Tian squatted under the streetlight next to the hotel, observing the passers-by. His gaze eventually settled on a portly middle-aged man holding an invitation. Ye Tian’s eyes lit up, and he approached the man, patting his shoulder.

“Old Wang, it’s you!” The chubby middle-aged man frowned, looking at Ye Tian with confusion.

“You’ve got the wrong person. I’m not surnamed Wang…”

“How could that be? We were good brothers in high school!” Without further explanation, Ye Tian grabbed the man’s shoulder and led him towards a small alley.

The middle-aged man tried to struggle, but couldn’t break free from Ye Tian’s grip, as the latter had cultivated internal energy.

“What do you want to do?” Once in the alley, the man looked at Ye Tian with fearful eyes, involuntarily stepping back. Despite Ye Tian’s handsome appearance, he didn’t have that kind of… hobby, right?

“Hehe… I’m not doing anything, just want to borrow your invitation for a bit,” Ye Tian said, and immediately knocked the chubby man unconscious with a chop to his neck.

He picked up the man’s invitation and returned to the hotel entrance, handing the invitation to the security guard.

“Mr. Deng, right? I apologize for my earlier rudeness. Please don’t take it to heart.” The guard glanced at the invitation, let Ye Tian pass, and kept apologizing.

He knew these wealthy people were petty. If he didn’t apologize today, the man might make things difficult for him tomorrow!

“Hmph!” Ye Tian snorted coldly and didn’t argue further, walking into the hotel.

On the sixth floor of the hotel, numerous business elites were gathered. Figures usually seen only in newspapers were all here today.

Many wealthy young masters and daughters flitted about, toasting various people. The purpose of tonight’s gathering was essentially for the big shots of various groups to discuss cooperation.

“Director Wang, you’re in good spirits today.” Lin Xiyan, accompanied by Jiang Che, approached a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses.

She looked at him with a beaming smile. Director Wang smiled broadly, but his expression changed upon seeing Jiang Che. He hadn’t heard of any relationship between Jiang Che and Lin Xiyan.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the cooperation to knock on the Lin family, but Lin Xiyan had invited Jiang Che, and their intimate behavior suggested they were a couple.

Even with a hundred times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to cheat Jiang Che’s woman. Otherwise, he would face the endless retaliation of the Jiang family and have no place in Linjiang City.

The Jiang family’s status in Linjiang City was well-known and not something he could afford to provoke.

“Young master Jiang…”

“Don’t worry about me; just continue discussing your cooperation,” Jiang Che said amiably, sitting next to Lin Xiyan.

“Regarding the construction of the western city pharmaceutical factory, I think my Lin family can hold a higher share,” Lin Xiyan said, her face full of charming smiles, but her words made the chubby man clench his teeth.

“How do you want to distribute the shares, President Lin?”

“My Lin family wants 70%!”

The man’s brow furrowed deeply. Lin Xiyan’s move was ruthless! The total investment in the pharmaceutical factory was two billion, with the Lin family contributing only seven billion, originally holding only 40% of the shares. But now, Lin Xiyan abruptly demanded 70%?

He could see that Lin Xiyan was so bold because she had Jiang Che’s support.

“I agree to your proposal. I’ll have someone draft a document, and we can sign it,” the man sighed deeply, instructing a secretary-looking person to prepare the documents.

About ten minutes later, the secretary hurriedly returned with a document. Lin Xiyan reviewed the document and, finding no issues, signed it.

“Director Wang, it’s been a pleasure working with you,” Lin Xiyan said, her face revealing a genuine smile.

“A pleasure indeed. Young master Jiang, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now. There are some matters to attend to at the company,” the portly middle-aged man said, looking towards Jiang Che and leaving quickly after getting permission.

He was afraid if he stayed longer, he might burst out in anger! Lin Xiyan was indeed astute, paying only 40% of the capital but acquiring 70% of the shares!

“You called me here just to use me?” After the middle-aged man had left, Jiang Che raised an eyebrow, looking at Lin Xiyan with a hint of amusement.

Although Lin Xiyan’s approach was somewhat unscrupulous, Jiang Che didn’t harbor any resentment. After all, the business world is like a battlefield.

If Lin Xiyan didn’t take advantage of this opportunity to exploit the other party, Jiang Che would have looked down on her; such an advantage isn’t always available.

“Hehe, are you angry now?” Lin Xiyan giggled, not denying Jiang Che’s statement.

“What do you think?”

“Don’t be angry~ How about I satisfy some of your hobbies to make it up to you?” Lin Xiyan leaned towards Jiang Che’s ear and whispered softly.

“Are you serious?” Jiang Che’s gaze shifted to Lin Xiyan’s legs wrapped in black silk. If that were the case…

“Of course, I’m serious. When have I ever lied to you?”

“When do you plan to keep your promise?”

“That… depends on when you’re free!” Lin Xiyan said hesitantly, her face flushing red with embarrassment. Was this like offering herself on a silver platter?

“Then next time I’m free, I’ll visit Lin’s company.” Jiang Che sighed deeply, suppressing his thoughts. He hadn’t expected Lin Xiyan, who usually seemed so serene and gentle, to take such an initiative.

One should never judge a woman solely by her appearance; who would have thought the outwardly gentle and graceful Lin Xiyan harbored such thoughts?

Elsewhere, after arriving at the sixth-floor banquet hall, Ye Tian sat in a corner, pondering how to integrate into this group of people.

After all, everyone present was a famous figure from various fields, and his only asset was his formidable martial prowess and status in Heizhou.

However, he couldn’t openly discuss his identity; he certainly didn’t intend to become a bodyguard for a group of middle-aged men.

While Ye Tian was deep in thought, someone suddenly patted his shoulder. “Are you Ye Tian?” Liu Zixu looked at Ye Tian, his gaze uncertain.

“Yes, I’m Ye Tian. And you are?” Ye Tian turned to look at Liu Zixu, feeling a familiar sense about this person as if they had met somewhere.

“Really? It’s you, Brother Tian? I’m Liu Zixu! We were high school classmates! We used to sit together by the trash can in high school, don’t you remember?” Liu Zixu said excitedly, the joy of meeting an old friend after many years indescribable.

“You’re Liu Zixu?” Ye Tian paused, then his expression became excited too. As one of his few good friends in high school, Ye Tian had a clear memory of Liu Zixu.

“Yes, it’s me. What brings you here?” Liu Zixu, holding a glass of red wine, sat opposite Ye Tian, curiously inquiring.

This kind of event wasn’t typically accessible to ordinary people, and he remembered Ye Tian was an orphan. Had Ye Tian joined some big company and become a CEO in the last few years?

“It’s a long story. I haven’t been developing in the country these past few years,” Ye Tian replied with a light smile, raising his glass to clink with Liu Zixu.

He wasn’t foolish enough to reveal his identity immediately upon meeting, despite their good friendship in high school; they hadn’t been in touch for seven or eight years, and he couldn’t guarantee what Liu Zixu had become.

Liu Zixu, not a fool either, saw that Ye Tian didn’t want to dwell on this topic. He didn’t ask further but chatted about some interesting high school memories.

“What did you say? Our class beauty got married? And to that universally recognized fool Lin Yang?”

Hearing Liu Zixu’s words, Ye Tian inevitably felt some regret. After all, the class beauty had been his high school crush.

He had even thought about a sweet romance with her upon returning home, only to find she was already married. This left him feeling somewhat dejected…
