When he said that, both Chen Pingsheng and Fang Tianqing sneered. In their eyes, Li Se was completely bragging; that was Young Master Lin.
"Alright, let's go together then. I want to see where you get your courage to say such rebellious words!" Fang Tianqing snorted coldly.
"Xiuxiu, come in our car. You can't take a taxi, can you?" Chen Pingsheng tried to pull Fang Xiuxiu.
Fang Xiuxiu shook her head, "I'll ride with my boyfriend. He has a car."
Chen Pingsheng and Fang Tianqing were both taken aback. They felt that Li Se, being around college graduation age, couldn't possibly own a car.
"Could it be a bicycle?" Fang Tianqing mocked.
When the couple saw Li Se driving a Porsche, their faces turned very unpleasant. People who drive such cars must be wealthy.
"It must be rented!" Chen Pingsheng said sarcastically. "These young people nowadays are so unfocused, only knowing how to rent cars to chase girls. I suspect Xiuxiu has been bewitched by him!"
Soon, they arrived at a restaurant and met a rather shifty-looking man.
"Manager Zheng, look, I've brought my niece," Chen Pingsheng said with a chuckle.
This Manager Zheng scrutinized Fang Xiuxiu and was quite pleased. "Hmm, not bad. Young Master Lin will definitely like her. Also, I've put in quite a bit of effort to arrange this matter for you, so you should show some appreciation."
"Just a small token, a small token," Chen Pingsheng secretly slipped a red envelope into Manager Zheng's hand.
Manager Zheng weighed it slightly, seemingly satisfied, and then pocketed it. He said to Chen Pingsheng and Fang Tianqing, "Young Master Lin is already upstairs. I'll take her up first. Let me tell you, Young Master Lin saw your niece's photo and was very pleased."
"As long as he's pleased," Chen Pingsheng and Fang Tianqing said excitedly. After all, with a connection to Young Master Lin, their company would surely make money.
Manager Zheng looked at Fang Xiuxiu and said, "You're Fang Xiuxiu, right? Let's go. Come with me. Young Master Lin is waiting for you."
"Have this Lin Xuan come down!" Li Se said calmly.
"Who are you?" Manager Zheng noticed Li Se at this moment. "How dare you call Young Master Lin by his name directly?"
"Manager Zheng, he's just an ignorant kid, daring to challenge Young Master Lin," Chen Pingsheng said with disdain. So what if he rented a Porsche? Did he really think he was all that?
Manager Zheng chuckled, "I advise you to stay put. I'm taking Miss Fang upstairs now, and Young Master Lin is waiting. Young Master Lin is not someone you can afford to offend. You're too weak if you want to fight Young Master Lin for a woman."
"Pfft..." Manager Zheng couldn't help but laugh. "You want to fight Young Master Lin for a woman? Who gave you the courage?"
"Who gave you, Lin Xuan, the courage to fight me for a woman?" Li Se asked calmly. "If he doesn't come down, I'll call him."
"Go ahead and call. If you can really make Young Master Lin come down, I'll kneel for you," Fang Tianqing said contemptuously. Did this kid have any self-awareness, or was he just pretending?
Li Se took out his phone and called Lin Xuan directly.
"Brother Li, why are you calling me all of a sudden? Do you have any instructions?" Lin Xuan was extremely respectful of Li Se, as Li Se had helped him resolve a feng shui issue before.
"Are you at Zhonghe Restaurant now?" Li Se asked.
Lin Xuan seemed confused, "How did you know? One of my subordinates mentioned he was going to introduce me to a beautiful girl today. Honestly, she's really pretty..."
"She's my woman. Come down. I'm here," Li Se interrupted him.
"What the... I'm coming down immediately." Lin Xuan was startled.
After the call ended, Manager Zheng and Chen Pingsheng, Fang Tianqing were all filled with doubt. Was it true? Was he really calling Young Master Lin? They were very suspicious.
In less than two minutes, a figure rushed towards them.
"Young Master Lin?" Manager Zheng was stunned.
Chen Pingsheng and Fang Tianqing's faces changed drastically. If Young Master Lin was coming down, it meant Li Se had called him. Did this Young Master Lin really not dare to compete with Li Se for a woman?
"Brother Li!" Lin Xuan immediately approached Li Se. "It's a misunderstanding, all of this is a misunderstanding. If I had known she was your woman, even with ten times the courage, I wouldn't dare to fight you for her."
Chen Pingsheng and Fang Tianqing's eyes widened. This Young Master Lin really didn't dare to fight Li Se for a woman, and judging by his attitude, he seemed extremely respectful of Li Se. At this moment, they had a dawning realization: it was over.
"These two insisted on introducing my girlfriend to you. Do you know what to do?" Li Se said calmly.
"Understood!" Lin Xuan, being a smart person, immediately said, "From today onwards, my Lin Group will no longer cooperate with them!"
Then, he looked at Manager Zheng again, "You blind fool, you're fired!"
Manager Zheng, Chen Pingsheng, and Fang Tianqing's faces turned pale; they almost collapsed to the ground.
Without paying any more attention to them, Lin Xuan eagerly approached Li Se, a smile plastered on his face. "Brother Li, shall we have dinner together?"
"No, thank you." Li Se shook his head and directly left with Fang Xiuxiu.
Several minutes after leaving the restaurant, Fang Xiuxiu still felt a sense of disbelief. "You... how do you know Young Master Lin?"
"He used to ask me to his place to read fortunes and feng shui, and I helped him solve some problems," Li Se said with a smile.
Fang Xiuxiu's expression turned strange, "Why do you feel like a charlatan?"
"Haha, if you want to think of me that way, it's not impossible," Li Se laughed. He didn't explain much. Feng shui and fortune-telling could not be explained by science. One could only say, believe it or not.
"Thank you today," Fang Xiuxiu said with heartfelt gratitude.
"What for? As I said, you're my woman," Li Se chuckled.
Fang Xiuxiu's pretty face immediately flushed. "You... do you really want me to be your girlfriend?"
Li Se had actually been joking earlier, and the reason he had said Fang Xiuxiu was his woman was mainly to help her resolve some trouble. But now, judging by her words, she was seriously asking him.
However, Li Se already had quite a few women around him, and he owed a lot of romantic debts. But to say he wasn't moved by Fang Xiuxiu would be unrealistic.
"Yes!" Li Se quickly nodded affirmatively.
"Then... I'll be your girlfriend." Fang Xiuxiu immediately stood on tiptoe and gave Li Se's lips a quick, light kiss.
"Oh, I knew you'd be my girlfriend. I shouldn't have acted like a gentleman in the hotel," Li Se said with a look of regret.
Fang Xiuxiu blushed deeply. "How can you say that? There will be opportunities in the future."
Li Se immediately pulled Fang Xiuxiu into his embrace and said with a sly smile, "Is it okay now?"
