Chapter 383: How about I give you
"Hmm? What do you need me to do?" Lu Chen feels suspicious. Song Yanmei was giving him too many benefits. There has to be a catch as well.
"For one, I heard about Chu Jingyi joining your company. But do you have a way to deal with the comments about him? Unless you can deal with that stigma, I cannot give you the hall."
That's one of the things Song Yanmei needed Lu Chen to do. Chu Jingyi's reputation is still down as more rumors about him keep coming. Even if Lu Chen used the power of the Lu family, Song Yanmei still wouldn't give the hall to him.
Lu Chen smiles, "You don't have to worry about that. I've got something to fix his reputation."
"Do you have proof?" Song Yanmei is interested.
"I'll send you the video later. But I'm going to get more information to make it bigger." Lu Chen smiles mischievously. He wasn't going to let Ling Wei and Yi Ruolan off for messing with his people.
"Ok. So the hall I will let you use is RT. Is that good enough?"
"That's more than enough." RT Hall is way better than Leo Hall. Compared to the LEO Hall, RT Hall can hold around two times the number of people.
"Wait, what is the second thing you want from me?" Lu Chen doesn't let the hall make him forget about the other thing. Song Yanmei wanted two things from him.
"Well, this is more of a personal reason rather than a business one. But it's a small favor!" As Song Yanmei talks, her voice turns embarrassed.
"....How small are we talking?" Lu Chen raises his eyebrows as he doesn't believe it at all.
"My father has been asking me to get married for some time now. I'm forced to go to a party with a partner. And this is where you come here." There wasn't a need for Song Yanmei to get a partner, to be honest. Not unless she wants to get hit on by a bunch of guys!
Going through all of that once was enough for her; she needed some way to get rid of it. And that's where Lu Chen steps in.
"...Wut?" Lu Chen's words come out wrong. He needs a double-take on what he just heard.
"I want you to be my pretend boyfriend." Song Yanmei was frank and curt.
"Ummm. How about I give you Zhang Jian instead? He's better looking than me, and I think he'll make the cut as boyfriend material." Zhang Jian makes the "WTH" face, wondering why he was getting sold off like that.
"No. I think you are more suitable. If I bring Zhang Jian with me, it will cause problems. You are more understandable and will adapt to the situation.
"..." 'Didn't I beat up a guy out of rage when I met you? Where did you get understandable and will adapt to the situation from?' Lu Chen knows what he did, so it's a bs statement from her.
"Don't you know I have a fiancee? Wouldn't this just make us look bad?" Even if the people close to them know about him wanting to break the engagement. On the outside, they're still engaged. So Lu Chen would look like a two-timer, and Song Yanmei would be the mistress in this case.
"Young master Lu, do you think your relationship with the Liu Family princess isn't known to everybody?"
"!"
"There are rumors going around about her having a boyfriend, and from your silence, I guess that's the case. So you don't need to worry about being looked at as a two-timer. And even I don't care about people thinking that I'm a mistress as well.
This might even help you in breaking your engagement as well."
"..." Lu Chen stays silent. But the one thought going through his mind is; scary.
"So, can you do it?"
"...Fine." The conditions are too good for Lu Chen not to accept. And she slammed down some hard facts that he can't bullshit his way out of.
Song Yanmei makes a smile, "That's good! I will tell you the date later. Also, you can send your people to the area tomorrow."
"Mmhmm, I'll have my secretary go there and check it out. Thanks." When Lu Chen closes the call, he looks up to see Chu Jingyi and Zhang Jian giving him blank faces.
"Don't say anything." Lu Chen doesn't want to hear it.
"Nah." "Nope." But Chu Jingyi and Zhang Jian refuse and said at the same time,
"You just got us a hall. But you got a free date as well!”
