"Old Zhou! It seems your daughter has found a good boyfriend!" A middle-aged man with a round face and a big belly smiled at the person next to him.
This man is Zhou Kexin's father, Zhou Xiang, the founder of Zhou Group, one of the wealthiest individuals in New City.
"Sigh—, daughters grow up too fast! One day she will leave my side," Zhou Xiang said with a sigh. His expression showed reluctance, but inside he was quite happy because he had been worried about finding a boyfriend for his daughter. She was already twenty and had never had a boyfriend or even mentioned any boy being handsome or good. This made him anxious, and the main purpose of this gathering was to help his daughter find someone she liked.
If judging by looks alone, Zhou Xiang was very satisfied with Chen Haoxuan as his son-in-law. He also appreciated Chen Haoxuan's demeanor. The only thing he wanted to know now was Chen Haoxuan's family background.
On Chen Haoxuan's side, Zhou Kexin finally let go of him and turned to the remaining suitors, playfully saying, "Did you see that? I kissed him; he is my boyfriend, and I am his girlfriend."
With Zhou Kexin saying this, there was nothing more to say, so those surrounding her left tactfully. After the suitors departed, Zhou Kexin could no longer hold back and exclaimed to Chen Haoxuan, "What did you mean by that just now?"
"What—what do you mean?" Chen Haoxuan asked in confusion.
"I mean when you said I could kiss you but it would cost me ten thousand Renminbi! Who do you think you are? Just for a kiss, you want ten thousand Renminbi? And it's me, a beauty, kissing you; you're taking advantage and then asking for money. Let me tell you, Chen Haoxuan, I kissed you, but I'm not giving you any money. How about that?" Zhou Kexin said angrily.
"Alright! I know my price is a bit high. How about five thousand Renminbi then?" Chen Haoxuan held up five fingers.
"Chen Haoxuan, I hate you!" Zhou Kexin was completely furious now. It wasn't really about the money; it was about dignity. No matter how worthless her kiss might be, it shouldn't come to losing money over it—especially not ten thousand Renminbi, which was several months' salary for an ordinary person.
Fuming, Zhou Kexin left and ran toward the garden of the villa. Hua Lingwei saw this and chased after her. She couldn't understand why Zhou Kexin would leave Chen Haoxuan alone like that.
Watching Zhou Kexin's retreating figure, Chen Haoxuan muttered to himself, "Is five thousand too expensive? Why is this rich girl so stingy?"
With Zhou Kexin gone, Chen Haoxuan found himself alone in a place where he didn't know anyone. Even Hua Tianyu was busy talking to others. Bored, Chen Haoxuan grabbed a plate and started taking food whenever he saw something delicious until he couldn't carry any more. Only then did he find a corner to sit down and enjoy his meal slowly.
Chen Haoxuan wanted to enjoy his meal alone, but the others wouldn't allow it, especially after his recent display of confidence. Just moments ago, when he kissed Zhou Kexin, everyone in Hotel Villa had witnessed it. Many young girls were captivated by Chen Haoxuan's handsome looks; it was their first time seeing such a strikingly attractive boy, someone who could truly be described as beautiful. As soon as Zhou Kexin left, those girls who had been waiting eagerly flocked to where Chen Haoxuan was.
"Handsome guy, can you tell me your name?" a stunning girl asked as she sat next to Chen Haoxuan.
Without a second thought, Chen Haoxuan replied, "My name is Chen Haoxuan."
"Can I call you Brother Xuan?" another girl, appearing to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, chimed in from the other side.
Chen Haoxuan rudely continued eating while answering, "Whatever, you can even call me husband." He thought to himself that since Zhou Kexin wasn't around and wouldn't care anymore, he didn't need to pretend to be a gentleman.
"Husband." To his surprise, the girl actually called him that.
"Wow—what did you just call me?" Chen Haoxuan exclaimed as he spat out the food he had just swallowed in shock, looking at the girl who had just called him husband.
The sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl eagerly hugged Chen Haoxuan's arm and said sweetly, "Yes! Didn't you just say I could call you that? Husband."
Meanwhile, Zhou Kexin was wreaking havoc on a patch of grass, squatting down and ruthlessly pulling out little blades of grass by the roots without leaving anything behind. "I told you to ask me for money; I told you to..." Zhou Kexin kept repeating the same phrase, uprooting a blade of grass with each repetition.
"Zhou Kexin, so this is where you ran off to. What's wrong? Why did you suddenly leave Chen Haoxuan?" Hua Lingwei finally found Zhou Kexin and curiously asked.
Zhou Kexin stood up, turned around angrily, and said, "It's all because of that stupid Chen Haoxuan! My suitors didn't believe that he was my boyfriend and insisted we kiss for proof. I had no choice but to let him kiss me. Do you know what he said?"
"What did he say?" Hua Lingwei asked with great curiosity.
"He said I could kiss you, but you have to give me another ten thousand Renminbi. Can you believe it? That was my first kiss, and I gave it away! I let him kiss me for a discount, and he still asked for more. I'm the daughter of the Zhou Group and the campus belle of New City University. There are so many men who want my kiss; how could he not think about taking advantage of me?" Zhou Kexin explained angrily.
"Wow..." Hua Lingwei was speechless. She never expected Chen Haoxuan to be such a money-loving guy, wanting to take advantage of others while asking for payment.
"Then why did you end up kissing him? You didn't agree to give him another ten thousand Renminbi, did you?" Hua Lingwei asked.
"Hmph, that was me forcing a kiss on him! Later, he even wanted to ask me for money. I got so mad that I ran out. I've decided that if he asks me for money again, I'll cut ties with him," Zhou Kexin said furiously.
"Forced a kiss? Wow—Zhou Kexin, you've turned into quite the flirt! But you said you'd cut ties with him; it seems like he wasn't really your friend to begin with, right?" Hua Lingwei remarked.
"Vivi, can't you stop with the sarcastic comments? I'm in this situation, and you should be comforting me," Zhou Kexin said pitifully. However, Hua Lingwei's words reminded her that she and Chen Haoxuan weren't really friends at all because friends don't rent each other; they help each other.
"Zhou Kexin, can I ask you a question?" Hua Lingwei said somewhat shyly.
"What question?" Zhou Kexin replied casually.
"When you kissed Chen Haoxuan, what did it feel like?" Hua Lingwei asked with a blush on her cheeks, eagerly awaiting the answer.
