Qi Yuan's words left everyone present somewhat dumbfounded.
For a moment, they smacked their lips, unsure of how to respond.
Seeing that no one could refute him, Qi Yuan became even more smug.
Winking at them, he said, "Makes a lot of sense, right? Haha."
Jiang Cheng bit his lower lip and thought about it for a moment.
At first glance, his words seemed reasonable, but they wouldn't hold up under scrutiny.
You might have enjoyed yourself, but you can't guarantee any follow-up service.
You know, ancient emperors were probably the richest people in the whole country.
With countless gold, silver, jewels, and three thousand beauties in the harem, this kind of extravagant lifestyle often led to overindulgence, followed by physical issues.
Thus, many secret histories record that even favored concubines would sometimes secretly have illicit affairs with guards.
On the other hand, it's the same in the West; I'm sure many people have seen Game of Thrones.
Money, power, and desire—these three are inseparable.
In this regard, the needs of men and women are actually quite similar.
So sometimes, money and power alone can't directly lock down a woman's heart.
Unless, like Qi Yuan, you don't care about duration and aim for quantity instead.
Using various means to constantly mingle among different women.
But this also has a drawback, like catching AIDS or Syphilis.
Moreover, doing this for a long time gives one a bad reputation in women's circles.
Mainly because once they talk, the word that you're not very good spreads.
After all, who wants to stop halfway through picking their nose? Isn't that just annoying?
The others had also been initially stunned by Qi Yuan's crooked theories.
However, after being dazed for ten seconds, they quickly snapped out of it.
Wang Congcong rolled his eyes at Qi Yuan speechlessly: "Holy crap, that's not right! I almost fell for your nonsense!"
Qin Fen also sighed: "Me too. I'd better stick to working out properly. I don't want to be talked about in the Shanghai circles."
Mentioning this made Wang Zheng think of something, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"You've all heard about Wen Ang's 'little mushroom' poisoning, right? Although it can be treated, it recurs and affects his duration."
Chen Hao added: "I heard that now, any woman who sees him takes a detour. He doesn't stand a chance with any decent socialite in Shanghai."
Qi Yuan retorted speechlessly: "Don't talk nonsense. My situation is different from his. I just didn't get enough rest last night."
Wang Congcong stopped teasing him and held back a laugh: "Fine, fine, fine. Get some good rest these two days. I'm telling you, the Victoria's Secret Show the day after tomorrow is where the real fun is."
"To be honest, I'm not that interested in those Supermodels. Their legs might be long, but are they really better than that Girl just now?" Qi Yuan asked, scratching his chin.
Wang Zheng nodded: "Agreed, but I'm mostly looking for novelty, so I'm not picky..."
Wang Congcong smiled at the two of them: "What's the rush? It's not just those. The fun part isn't the ones on the runway."
"There's more fun stuff?" Jiang Cheng asked with interest.
Wang Congcong nodded mysteriously: "Of course. You'll find out when the time comes. I guarantee you'll want to come back for a second time after trying it once."
...After chatting for a while, the group closed their eyes to rest.
After all, the flight to the UK would take nearly eighteen hours.
Those ten-plus hours passed quickly with a nap.
Even though it was a private jet, sleeping during a long-haul flight was still somewhat uncomfortable.
Everyone woke up feeling a bit listless and yawning.
After a quick bite to eat, they prepared to disembark under the Flight Attendant's service.
Seeing the Flight Attendant, who had just clapped for love with Qi Yuan, glancing at him with a resentful look from time to time, the others were all stifling their laughter.
Only Qi Yuan himself acted as if nothing had happened, even whispering to the Flight Attendant before getting off: "Want to hang out in London for a few days?"
The Flight Attendant looked significantly toward his crotch: "Ten thousand yuan for five minutes—with that kind of deal, there should be plenty of people lining up. I won't join the crowd."
After she finished speaking, the group finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Even Jiang Cheng felt that Qi Yuan's latest move was beyond salvation.
It was only natural for the Girl to refuse.
Although it was an exchange to begin with, you should at least have either the money or the ability.
As it turns out, not only did you do a bad job 'picking the nose,' but the pay wasn't right either. No wonder the Girl was unhappy.
Exposed in public, Qi Yuan finally couldn't help but glare fiercely at the Flight Attendant.
Then, he self-righteously defended himself again: "As a refined man, one must learn to create the maximum pleasure in the shortest amount of time. What would a woman like you know!"
Seeing Qi Yuan getting agitated, Wang Congcong gave him a comforting pat on the shoulder and then walked off the plane with his arm around him.
"Classic you. I thought you weren't stingy anymore, but this is too much. Ten thousand yuan?"
Jiang Cheng also couldn't help but shake his head: "Didn't you make some money recently? No wonder that Girl looked so resentful. If you're not up to the task, at least pay up."
