Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities

Chapter 465: Chapter 254: Sales Volume! I’m Not a Casual Person

"That’s a small matter. I’ll contact you tomorrow," Lin Hao agreed without a second thought. Although he didn’t have that much spending money in his account, he could easily borrow it from his mom by sweet-talking her and saying it was an emergency.

It was rare for Lao Cheng to ask him for anything, so he had no reason to refuse.

"Thanks." Chen Jincheng smiled and raised his glass to Lin Hao in a toast.

This was exactly why, out of so many people, he chose to be friends with Lin Hao.

Lin Hao’s family was rich, sure, but in this day and age, very few people were willing to lend money to those around them, let alone 50 million.

Many people seem to have a lot of friends, but when it actually comes time to borrow money, they might not even be able to get 5,000.

Besides, with this money from Lin Hao and the shopping cart feature back online, he could get another 50 million loan from the bank. The Soda Company’s funding would be completely fine.

Seeing Teacher Taonai and Cai Xiaoyi having fun, Lin Hao pulled Chen Jincheng over to join them.

When it came to drinking roulette, there was no way Teacher Taonai and Cai Xiaoyi could beat two seasoned bar-goers.

With Lin Hao leading the game, Teacher Taonai ended up drinking constantly. Before long, she was drunk, leaning dizzily against Lin Hao.

Chen Jincheng cursed inwardly, ’What an animal.’ But then he noticed Cai Xiaoyi had suddenly collapsed, already sprawled out on the sofa.

This made him chuckle. ’This divorced young Malay woman’s acting is far too unnatural.’

Lin Hao’s arm was already around Teacher Taonai’s waist. He said meaningfully, "Lao Cheng, let’s call it a night. We shouldn’t waste any time."

Chen Jincheng couldn’t help but tease, "You’re the animal here. Don’t assume I’m the same as you."

Lin Hao immediately flipped him the bird in response. Everyone knew what was what; there was no need for him to put on an act.

Chen Jincheng walked over to Cai Xiaoyi’s side. As he leaned over, he clearly saw a faint smile on the corners of the divorced young Malay woman’s lips.

’Breaking character while pretending to be drunk... her skills are clearly lacking.’

However, he didn’t expose her. Instead, he swept her up in a princess carry.

Cai Xiaoyi immediately took the chance to wrap her arms around his neck and rest her head on his shoulder. ’The tricks I learned online really do work,’ she thought. ’If I pretend to be drunk, Mr. Chen will have to take me with him.’

Chen Jincheng ordered Ah Pao, "Find someone to drive me to the hotel."

Ah Pao nodded. He’d had a little to drink and couldn’t drive, so he called over an internal security guard. He then got in the car as well, personally escorting his boss to the hotel parking garage and then rode the elevator upstairs with them.

"Room number," Chen Jincheng asked, speaking directly into Cai Xiaoyi’s ear.

Cai Xiaoyi raised a hand and passed him a room key, but her head remained on his shoulder as she kept up her drunken act.

Ah Pao and the security guard turned a blind eye to her obvious act, pretending not to see it. Their only task was to get their boss safely to his room.

Only after their boss entered the room and closed the door did they leave, exiting the hotel to take a taxi back to the bar.

Chen Jincheng carried Cai Xiaoyi to the sofa and sat down, then directly called her out, "How long are you going to keep pretending to be drunk?"

Only then did Cai Xiaoyi open her eyes, but her hands, wrapped around his neck, were reluctant to let go. "Mr. Chen, I’ve already been so forward. Please, will you be my boyfriend?"

"I don’t want to talk about that right now," Chen Jincheng said, looking at her playfully.

The divorced young Malay woman seemed to understand.

...

That night... (1,500 words omitted)...

...

Cai Xiaoyi lay against Chen Jincheng’s chest, her face a picture of contentment. "Mr. Chen, so... am I your girlfriend now?"

In response to this question, Chen Jincheng said irritably, "Am I the kind of man you can win over after sleeping with me just once? Xiaoyi, do you take me for some easy guy?"

"???" Cai Xiaoyi was clearly dazed by his words, feeling like her CPU was about to fry.

She even said foolishly, "Then I’ll just keep trying!"

Chen Jincheng couldn’t help but laugh at her reaction. He then took out his phone to check the trending topics on Tiao Yin for the day. ’I wonder if there’s any tea to spill.’

But when he opened the trending list and saw one of the topics, he froze completely.

"What the hell?"

Seriously, Chen Jincheng never expected to be reading gossip about himself.

’But does something like this really deserve a trending topic?’

’Is there nothing else newsworthy?’
