Chapter 1376: Chapter 1377: The Fish Took the Bait
The three of them are best buddies in the circle, often coming here to chase after internet beauties, and each knew plenty of dirt about the others.
Aside from their similar tastes, they played well together because they were wary of the compromising material each held on the others. After all, in this circle, itâs always better to have one more friend than one more enemy.
"If I werenât less appealing to women than you, Iâd have done it myself, who the hell needs to beg you."
"Thatâs not what I meant." Gu Zekai was annoyed to death and couldnât possibly reveal his secret to him, out of sheer helplessness, he eased his expression and relented, "...Alright, Iâll go with you."
Jiang Zixuan waited for them to finish arguing and reach an agreement before he chimed in, "Iâm going too~ She was my discovery first! Letâs get this straight, the rule is, whoever the beauty fancies gets to make the move. The rest back off and donât mess things up, OK?"
Which man doesnât have a competitive spirit? Chen Anchen had it too, and even though he felt he didnât have an advantage against the famously handsome little fresh meat Gu Zekai, he still gritted his teeth and agreed when Jiang Zixuan brought it up, "No problem."
"What about you, Gu Zekai?"
Gu Zekaiâs mind wasnât on picking up girls, he absentmindedly answered, "Whatever."
Chen Anchen was even more annoyed with him now.
But he said nothing, and the three men headed towards Rong Yanâs table...
Rong Yan was bored out of her mind waiting for the fish to take the bait when suddenly her phone on the table vibrated. She picked up the phone, glanced at the message, and instantly perked up.
It was from Estelle, just one sentenceâ[The target is heading this way.]
She controlled herself not to look back, perked up with heightened alertness, waiting for the prey to walk right into her trap.
And sure enough.
In less than two minutes, a greasy and frivolous voice rang out from beside her, "Beautiful, are you here at the bar alone?"
Rong Yan turned her head and the three handsome men each with their own charm entered her view. Compared to Chen Anchen and Jiang Zixuanâs more mannish and rugged looks, Gu Zekaiâs slender figure and delicately handsome features of a more androgynous type were even more to the taste of young girls these days.
Tch, no wonder Gu Zekai managed to amass a bunch of fans with just a non-famous internet drama; such looks were indeed very popular with girls.
However, having seen the best out there, she wasnât too impressed by these moderately above-average handsome guysâjust so-so-looking, really.
Sloppy at best.
Seeing her gaze linger on the man next to him for too long, Chen Anchenâs heart turned cold, but for the sake of face, he still forced himself to interject, blocking Rong Yanâs line of sight while jokingly saying, "My friend would like to meet you, is this seat taken? Can we join you?"
Rong Yan, with a pleasant and engaging look in her bright eyes, appropriately moved her drink aside, freeing up a seat, and smiled lightly, "Itâs free, sit down."
The fish has taken the bait, time to reel it in slowly...

In Capital City, a gentle night breeze blew as the bright moon hung in the sky.
A tall and noble-looking man walked out of the restaurant. The trade department senior executive patting his shoulder spoke with a warm expression and praise, "Haha, you know what really struck me during this meal? Comparing people can really kill you! Compared to my good-for-nothing son, Mr. Li is truly young and promising, a force to be reckoned with~ The Old General has been too low key! If only my son were half as outstanding as you, Iâd want everyone to know. Alas, my boy just doesnât measure up."
He then shifted his tone, laying it on thick with a serious instruction, "This cooperation project is very important; itâs highly valued by those at the top. You need to put more thought into it, and make sure there are no slip-ups. There will be many more projects for us to collaborate on in the future."
