Top Grade Immortal Emperor in the Flower City

"Ladies, would I be fortunate enough to buy you a drink?" the man said with a smile.

Luo You glanced up at him and proceeded to ignore him entirely.

Chen Yan, however, gave him a polite smile and said, "No, thank you."

Flies in this day and age, the more face you give them, the higher they climb.

This man was a classic example.

Chen Yan's politeness was immediately mistaken by him as playing hard to get.

"Hello, my name is Pei Haiqing, Director of the Research Department at Perfect Game Company."

As he spoke, the man presented a business card.

Chen Yan frowned as she looked at the card, but still accepted it.

After accepting it, she turned to look out the window, no longer paying any attention to Pei Haiqing.

Pei Haiqing, however, did not feel awkward. He was an old hand at the game of romance, and striking up a conversation was only the first step; flashing his wealth was the second one.

"May I ask how the two ladies are addressed? Actually, I would like to inquire if you're willing, I'd like to invite you both to work as part-time game models at our company, with a daily salary of 5,000 yuan. What do you think?"

Pei Haiqing believed that 5,000 yuan was definitely a generous offer, considering it was for a single day.

Many people don't even earn 5,000 yuan in a month.

With such tactics, he had deceived countless girls and then gradually lured them with money until eventually, they ended up in bed.

Pei Haiqing was convinced that these two girls in front of him would not be the ones to slip through the net either.

Chen Yan was about to refuse when suddenly she saw a tall figure approaching and casually draping an arm over Pei Haiqing's shoulder.

"Brother, don't you find it hot wearing a suit in such scorching weather?" Ye Ling said with a smile.

Pei Haiqing adjusted his glasses and frowned, "Who are you? I don't know you." Exclusive tales from m v lem|p-yr

"Then do you know them?"

Ye Ling gestured toward Chen Yan and Luo You.

Pei Haiqing said, "Just met them."

"That's fine, we also just met, right?"

Ye Ling smiled as he sat down next to Chen Yan, then pointed to the seat next to Luo You and said, "Please, have a seat."

Pei Haiqing was momentarily taken aback.

Although he didn't recognize Ye Ling, he couldn't let such a good opportunity pass him by.

After sitting down, Pei Haiqing sized Ye Ling up.

Despite looking handsome and well-dressed, every piece of clothing on him was cheap street stall merch, clearly a member of the 'loser' group.

With that thought, an aura of superiority immediately emanated from Pei Haiqing.

Chen Yan looked at Ye Ling, thinking to herself that this guy was likely to stir up some kind of trouble.

She understood Ye Ling, but Luo You did not.

Seeing Ye Ling inviting Pei Haiqing to sit down, Luo You, who already wasn't fond of Ye Ling, immediately furrowed her elegant eyebrows.

"Brother works at a gaming company?" Ye Ling asked with a smile.

Instantly, Pei Haiqing lifted his head, speaking as if through his nose, "Hmm."

"That's pretty awesome, becoming a director at such a young age. Brother must be quite capable!" Ye Ling said with a smile.

Pei Haiqing's face grew even more smug upon hearing this flattery.

"In that case, brother, why don't you take care of the bill today?" Ye Ling asked.

Pei Haiqing had wanted to refuse, but then he remembered the two beauties at his side and immediately his show-off demeanor became undeniable.

"Sure, everyone feel free to order, I'll pay today!"

"That generous?"

Ye Ling looked surprised and admired, "Worthy of a director-level person, truly magnificent. Ah... I wonder when little old me might reach that level."

"As long as you have determination, perseverance, and can endure hardship, you can do it too."

Pei Haiqing seemed to be encouraging, but the sense of being above others was clearly written all over his face.

```

"Alright, if Brother Pei is treating, then we won't be shy."

Ye Ling nodded and looked towards Chen Yan and Luo You, "What would you two beauties like to drink?"

"I'll have a Floating Ice please," Chen Yan said.

Luo You glanced at Ye Ling and said impatiently, "An Iced Americano."

"And Brother Pei?"

"I've already ordered, so I don't need anything else."

Pei Haiqing was holding a cup in his hand, from which steam rose from the hot coffee inside.

Ye Ling thought to himself, This fucker, in such hot weather not only is he wearing a suit, but he's also drinking hot coffee. He's really taking pretending to be something to a whole new level.

"Then I'll place my order."

Ye Ling thought for a moment, snapped his fingers at the waiter, and called out, "Hey beautiful, please bring 20 cups of Golden Blue Mountain on ice, thank you~"

"Pfft!"

Pei Haiqing had just taken a sip of coffee and sprayed it all over the table.

"20 cups? Can you even drink that much?"

Pei Haiqing's mouth twitched violently.

You see, what Ye Ling had just ordered was Golden Blue Mountain!

Damn it, without ice it's 65 yuan per cup, with ice it goes up to 80 yuan, and 20 cups are freaking 1300 yuan!

Treating Chen Yan and Luo You to be models was on the company's dime, but paying for coffee was coming out of his own pocket!

With a monthly salary of just over 10,000 yuan, a treat like this would cost him 1300 yuan, as if he were dining at a five-star hotel!

Chen Yan and Luo You both widened their eyes, looking at Ye Ling.

But they soon caught on.

Ye Ling wanting coffee was fake; he really wanted to give a lesson to this pretender.

"Actually, I've only had Golden Blue Mountain once before, and it was when I was following a company leader here. I still remember that taste. Brother Pei, please fulfill this younger brother's wish, will you?"

Ye Ling put on a pitiful, pauper-like expression and looked at Pei Haiqing pathetically.

If Chen Yan and Luo You weren't here, Pei Haiqing would have slapped him already long ago.

Your grandpa's pity!

Right then, Chen Yan showed an impish 'you're so rich' expression, which made Pei Haiqing's pride surge once more.

To spend a night with such an attractive woman, 1300 was nothing!

Soon, the drinks they ordered arrived.

Ye Ling had almost filled his space with them and without saying anything, downed three cups right away.

The surrounding people were all astounded.

This country bumpkin, is this how one drinks coffee?

Pei Haiqing was sneering inside, thinking you wanted to drink so badly, right? Now I'm going to let you drink until you vomit, and you'll never want to drink it again!

Ye Ling drank one cup after another as if it was water, gulping them down, drawing frequent glances from the surrounding people.

Chen Yan and Luo You were on the verge of laughing. This guy, could he drink any more?

Although they knew Ye Ling was doing it on purpose, that kind of drinking method would require a huge stomach!

Very soon, the 20 cups were all dealt with by Ye Ling.

"Feeling okay?"

Pei Haiqing chuckled inside, but his expression was one of concern.

"Really nice!"

Ye Ling wiped his mouth, then snapped his fingers again: "Waiter, another 50 cups please!"

"Pfft!"

Pei Haiqing sprayed another mouthful of coffee onto the table.

His face was about to turn purple, and he felt like splashing the steaming coffee in his face right onto Ye Ling's face.
