Chapter 127: Oysters with wolfberry for dinner, washed down with Red Bull and tonic wine.

"Junior! Mr. Chen from Bilibili has invited you to dinner at the White Horse Hotel at 7:00 tonight. Don't forget!"

"Yes! Yes! Senior! I definitely won't forget!"

"Senior! Thank you so much! I'll treat you to drinks tomorrow! I..."

Before he could finish, the call was cut off by Wen Wan.

"Oh? And what exactly are you thanking him for?"

Wen Wan arched an eyebrow, gripping a leather crop in her hands, her eyes filled with a dangerous glint.

"W-well, obviously for helping me get in touch with Bilibili. A-after all, that's a crucial part of my plan."

"Is that so?"

"It is! Truer than pearls!" Chen Luo quickly changed the subject. "Look, Wan'er, I have to negotiate with Mr. Chen from Bilibili soon. Don't you think we should postpone this punishment?"

"Tonight!"

"After I’m done with my work tonight, I’ll come back and accept your punishment willingly and submissively. How about that?"

Chen Luo’s gaze was as resolute as a soldier heading to the front lines, staring straight into Wen Wan’s eyes.

Wen Wan curled her lips and used the crop to lift Chen Luo's chin.

"Then remember, tonight’s punishment will be doubled."

"Fine! Doubled it is!"

Chen Luo gritted his teeth. At worst, I'll just load up on oysters and goji berries tonight, plus a bottle of energy drink and Red Bull! I’m going all in! I refuse to believe I can’t extinguish your fury!

"Fine, you're off the hook for now."

Wen Wan’s anger had mostly subsided. She picked up the remote and pressed a button; the handcuffs automatically retracted and disappeared back into the seat.

Such high-tech equipment must cost hundreds of thousands, he thought. He stole a guilty glance at Wen Wan, then pretended to be earnest as he took her hand.

"My dear wife, you mentioned you had some intelligence on Bilibili and the personality traits of Mr. Chen, but you haven't told me yet."

"Tell me now, so I don't go in unprepared and make a fool of myself."

Wen Wan patted his cheek with a huff.

"You little rascal, trying to change the subject again. Don't think I don't know."

After venting her anger, Wen Wan felt much calmer, and the unsettling waves of emotion in her heart had largely vanished, allowing her to think clearly again.

"But don't worry, Mr. Chen has a decent reputation within the industry."

"Although Bilibili is currently on a strong upward trajectory, at the end of the day, they are still just a video streaming company with limited capital and resources."

At this point, Wen Wan looked into Chen Luo’s eyes and asked, "What do you think is the purpose of this Mr. Chen coming to see an undergraduate entrepreneur like you in person?"

Chen Luo reached out and pulled Wen Wan into his arms, patting her back gently to soothe her further.

"It boils down to two things. First, he feels that my project aligns well with their company and could open up a new development path for them."

"Second, and most importantly, they already know that I am your boyfriend."

"Bilibili is currently lacking in both funds and resources. They need a major injection of capital. Therefore, my status and your capital are exactly what they need most right now."

"That is the primary reason why Mr. Chen is coming to see me."

"Spot on. You’re amazing. Mwah!"

Wen Wan planted a firm kiss on Chen Luo’s cheek.

"So, for the sake of your upcoming plans, I’ll accompany you tonight."

"Huh?"

"Huh what? This is for your own good. Or were you planning on doing something shady with Mr. Chen tonight?"

"No, no, no, how could that be? With my Wan'er stepping in, everything tonight will be even smoother, guaranteed!"

"Hmph, that’s better. Come, massage my legs. Monitoring you just now was exhausting."

"Coming right up! Technician Number 38 at your service. Remember to give a five-star review, dear."

...

Hangzhou, Southern Villa District, Villa No. 8.

"This is what you call a life."

Tang Xiwei, wearing a sexy black dress and holding a glass of red wine, stood on the second-floor balcony of the villa, gazing into the distance.

Although this villa district couldn't compare to the Emperor’s Residence, it was still one of the top three residential areas for the wealthy in Hangzhou.

This villa, No. 8, had once been one of Liu Feng’s family properties. Tang Xiwei had visited once and desperately wanted to live there to enjoy the luxury. So, she had specifically instructed her assistant to buy the villa, fulfilling a dream of hers.

"Assistant Bao, look, am I beautiful?"

She cast a seductive glance at the assistant beside her, making Assistant Bao’s eyelids twitch.

It had to be said that Tang Xiwei, in that outfit, with her exaggerated curves and exquisite makeup, was indeed a beauty.

But Assistant Bao dared not respond!

Does this woman have no sense of boundaries? Even if I am handsome, you shouldn't be teasing me like this! Nominally, you are the young master’s mistress—no
