I am not just a tycoon-Chapter 643 - 398: Mental Breakdown, Flirting
"Dai Lu."
Dai Lu turned her head reflexively when her name was called, and to her surprise, it was Shen Yuan.
She was somewhat taken aback, and her gaze flickered slightly, "Shen Yuan, what are you doing here?"
Shen Yuan chuckled teasingly, "What, you can sneak off to play golf with other men behind my back, and I can't play golf with other girls?"
Dai Lu smiled charmingly, "What are you talking about? I'm not your girlfriend, why can't I play golf with others? Besides, I came out with colleagues, not alone with a man."
After she finished speaking, she felt a little regretful. She should have just said the first part, but she uttered the second half as if possessed.
As if I care about his feelings.

"Alright, it won't happen again."
Shen Yuan agreed reluctantly.
"Tch, save it. On another note, why are you here?"
Dai Lu scrutinized Shen Yuan carefully. He was dressed in loose sportswear which wasn't quite proper golf attire, his features were as handsome as ever, but his eyes and brows always carried a hint of frivolity.
"Of course, I'm here to play golf. Just because I'm not dressed in the proper golf attire, you're going to look down on me?"
"Who would dare to look down on you? A single watch from you costs seven to eight hundred thousand, with two you could buy an apartment. It just feels like you don't fit in with this kind of place."
Dai Lu said with her arms crossed.
"How do I not fit in? That's because you've only seen me at hotels and gyms, you haven't seen the other sides of me."
Shen Yuan patted her shoulder, "Don't worry, brother will let you see many more sides of me."
Qian Zihao was fuming with anger. Damn it, how dare he put his hand on her?
"Don't even try it, you brat. You're even younger than me."
Dai Lu knocked his hand away.
She now understood more clearly why Yuchang would fall for him. Handsome, wealthy, and a smooth talker, which woman could resist?
At this moment, the little devil on her left side jumped out again: You see, I told you his name shouldn't be Shen Yuan, but Deep Abyss. Fall in, and you'll be devoured completely!
Dai Lu backed off, yet she couldn't bear to part with that handsome face.
When would she chance upon such an attractive 'little wolfhound' again?
"Why haven't you added me on WeChat, have I set up permissions to add friends?"
Shen Yuan asked deliberately. He had disabled adding friends via phone number, group chat, and QQ, leaving only the ability to add by business card.
He said this mainly to give Dai Lu an out.
Dai Lu couldn't admit she hadn't added him; with things having gotten to this point, she clenched her teeth, thinking that adding him on WeChat but not going any further wasn't a big deal.
"It seems so."
"Maybe because too many girls wanted to add me recently, I set up the permissions. Let's scan and add each other now."
Shen Yuan pulled out his phone and showed off without making a scene.
Not far away, Qian Zihao watched them add each other via QR code, his eyes nearly popping out.
What's going on with Dai Lu? How come she was added so easily?
This wasn't supposed to be the case.
Qian Zihao remembered adding Dai Lu was a long and arduous process. He first tried adding her in the company's large group, but she had set up permissions.
Then he got her phone number, but still couldn't add her due to her privacy settings.
Someone later shared her business card, only to get the message, "You cannot add this person by business card due to their privacy settings."
Facing so many coworkers, he was too embarrassed to ask her directly. After all these unsuccessful attempts, he was afraid of the embarrassment in case of a direct refusal.
Finally, they ended up in the same project team, and for work communication purposes, they managed to add each other.
With his good credentials, it was so hard just to be added as a friend, but how come Shen Yuan got added after a few words? Why is that fair?
After they added each other as friends, Dai Lu raised her chin and said, "So, who did you trick into coming with you this time?"
Shen Yuan smiled, "Why would you say I tricked someone? That's harsh. These things are consensual."
"I don't believe it for a second. There's not a single true word out of your mouth."
Dai Lu pouted, preparing to say goodbye, but then she noticed Shen Yuan's gaze lingering on her chest.
"What are you looking at?"
Dai Lu covered her neckline.
"I saw some sweat there, I was thinking of wiping it for you."
"Get lost."
Dai Lu stepped back, trying to keep her distance from Shen Yuan.
Even though Shen Yuan was taking advantage verbally and physically, she couldn't bring herself to dislike him even a bit.
This is bad, I'm not really falling for him, am I?
Meanwhile, Qian Zihao sat in the resting area, his eyes red with envy. That bastard not only got her WeChat, but they were even flirting.
Damn you, you really should be damned!
At this moment, Chang Ting had also packed up her things and, carrying her bag, sat down beside Qian Zihao, slightly teasing him with her left leg: "Mr. Qian, where shall we go for dinner tonight?"
Qian Zihao had no mind to respond to her right now; instead, he was staring at the "couple of dogs", wanting to see if there was any follow-up.
Damn, the goddess persona has collapsed, huh? So cold to me but so passionate to him? What exactly went wrong?
Following his gaze, Chang Ting looked over and asked with a frown, "Is that man Dai Lu's boyfriend?"
"What boyfriend, she's still single!"
With a dark expression, Qian Zihao turned to her: "You're already thinking about lunch at 10 A.M.? Forget it, just wait for me at the entrance."
Chang Ting opened her mouth, looking at him in disbelief. They were just chatting along nicely, even talked about exchanging risqué photos, how come his tone has changed so abruptly?
"Mr. Qian..."
Chang Ting wanted to say something more.
"Enough, we'll talk about it later," Qian Zihao replied impatiently.
Tears of frustration were about to fall from Chang Ting's eyes as she pouted, stood up, and walked towards the entrance feeling dejected.
Qian Zihao now had serious self-doubts; he didn't know if it was something wrong with himself or his understanding of Dai Lu had deviated, but in any case, things had gone completely off track.
It was just a joke from him, yet this cursed man really took it seriously!
No, sitting back and waiting for doom is not an option.
Qian Zihao stood up, walked over with a forced smile, "What's so funny that you're chatting about?"
Shen Yuan and Dai Lu turned their heads at the same time; Dai Lu thought the two men didn't know each other and was about to introduce them.
But Qian Zihao continued, "It seems you two already know each other. Dai Lu, this is my friend Shen Yuan."
Now Dai Lu was thrown off balance; Shen Yuan knew Qian Zihao?
She didn't understand Shen Yuan's game, but she didn't point it out and just nodded: "Um, we just met."
"Since we're ready, let's go. How about Western food for lunch?"
Qian Zihao just wanted to quickly get her away from this place of discord and away from Shen Yuan; asking this was also his way of declaring his territory to Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan just smiled and said nothing, instead looking at Dai Lu.
"Mr. Qian, I won't join you for lunch; you go ahead," said Dai Lu.
"Do you... have something else to do?"
Qian Zihao glanced at Dai Lu and then at Shen Yuan, feeling a bit panicked inside.
No way, she had just added him as a friend, and they're going to make plans?
"Something came up at home."
"Well... if it's not urgent, I do hope you can come."
As he spoke, Qian Zihao's voice had a hint of pleading, and Shen Yuan felt a touch of sympathy.
"It's not urgent, but I need to go back for a bit."
"Then... shall I drive you home?"
Qian Zihao knew Dai Lu was making an excuse, but he still wanted to try; he just didn't want Dai Lu to be with Shen Yuan.
"No need, I drove here myself."
"Then... okay."
Qian Zihao had no choice but to leave dejectedly, having lost completely today and not understanding where he went wrong.
Damn, why did I say I didn't mind just now?!"
With a few backward glances, Qian Zihao's figure receded, bearing heavy weight, and though Shen Yuan felt a tinge of sympathy, he still teased Dai Lu's neck: "Want to have lunch together?"
Dai Lu pushed Shen Yuan's hand away: "No, it's not that. I just don't want to be with them."
"So you want to be with me, huh? We should play basketball together sometime."
"You're not being serious again... Alright, I'm leaving too."
"How about lunch together? My treat," Shen Yuan offered.
Dai Lu shook her head: "No, thanks. You brought your sister over, so I won't disturb your time together."
"What 'time together'? I came here with my assistant; it won't be an issue. Come on, join me for a walk around the golf course, swing a few clubs."
Without further ado, Shen Yuan grabbed Dai Lu's hand. Dai Lu tried to break free, but failing to do so, she let it be.
"But I don't feel like swinging... I'm tired."
"Then you teach me how to swing."
"..."
Ji Ya came over having finished the procedures and said, "Boss, we can enter the course now. We didn't bring any clubs, we need to pick some out first."
"I have my clubs stored here," Dai Lu said.
"Okay."
Ji Ya trailed behind the two, scrutinizing this woman carefully.
The boss was too impressive; in just 20 minutes of paperwork, he'd already hooked up with an attractive woman with both beauty and figure.
