Chapter 18: Silly Woman

Being called a "silly woman" by her lover made Rose couldn't help but roll her eyes playfully. "So, that's the reason. It seems you came here today to collect your deposit..."

After learning about Yang Chen's intentions, Rose didn't inquire further about his specific plans, nor did she feel much concern for Yang Chen. At this moment, Rose was convinced that the standoff between the two gangs in the Western District was coming to an end.

This was also why Yang Chen genuinely liked this woman. If it were just about physical attraction, Rose would have been like the other women he had been with, having no further relationship after intimacy.

But Rose was clearly a woman who knew how to make a man feel comfortable. She firmly believed in Yang Chen's abilities. If he didn't want to talk about something, she wouldn't press him for answers. If he wanted to keep secrets, she would play along and act like she wanted to know.

When Yang Chen didn't visit her, she wouldn't disturb him for no reason, but would quietly wait for him in a peaceful place. And when he did visit her, she would pour her passionate feelings onto him, letting him know how much she missed him...

The more Rose remained modest and content, without any desires, the harder it was for Yang Chen to let her go.

In fact, Yang Chen himself would sometimes think that his grudge against Chen Feng was just an excuse he had convinced himself of. If things continued like this, even if the Western Alliance Society hadn't provoked him at all, he would still wipe them out for the sake of Rose, this confidante.

After kissing and cuddling for a while, the sky outside had darkened, and the city lights began to illuminate.

Seeing that the time was about right, Yang Chen stopped lingering and began to dress himself.

Rose initially wanted to get up and help, but the pain that surged as soon as she tried to stand made her frown, biting her lip, and reproaching, "It's all because of you, making me all swollen."

"Uh..." Yang Chen awkwardly chuckled, "I saw you didn't have your period, so I thought everything was fine. Are you... experiencing this for the first time?"

Rose's angry face turned pale, "The membrane broke when I was practicing splits as a child. What, do you think I'm promiscuous?"

"No no no..." Yang Chen hurriedly apologized, "Sweet Rose, I just thought you usually take care of your own needs. It's so tight down there that I can't even pull out. How could you be promiscuous? Hehe..."

Hearing Yang Chen's blunt and embarrassing words, Rose was both amused and annoyed. She simply buried herself under the blanket and refused to look at Yang Chen anymore.

Yang Chen pulled up his pants with a smirk, about to leave, when suddenly he remembered something and asked, as if it were an afterthought, "Darling Rose, my wife wants me to find a job with better office conditions. I'm thinking of choosing a more relaxed job, but I'm not familiar with the companies in Zhonghai. Which company do you think I should apply to?"

"Your wife?!" Rose quickly popped her head out, staring with wide eyes, "Since when did you have a wife?"

"Ah, a living bodhisattva, always with a stern face. I just got the marriage certificate today, can't go into specifics, but I'm married now." Yang Chen shook his head in distress. Rose's expression changed rapidly, ending with a somewhat plaintive tone, "Although I never thought about being the main wife, you don't have to hit me with this so soon, becoming a mistress."

"Don't you want to be the main wife? Why not?" Yang Chen asked curiously.

"Being the main wife isn't suitable for me. After all, I'm someone who lives in the shadows. I can't just show my face in public with you all day long. And... I don't look like the virtuous and motherly type, do I, dear husband?" Rose finished, giving Yang Chen a charmingly sly glance.

"You're just a little enchantress," Yang Chen almost couldn't resist.

After giggling for a while, Rose seemed to not care too much about Yang Chen's marriage. After some thought, she suggested, "If you like looking at beautiful women and want something relaxed, then go to Yulei International. They specialize in the fashion industry and cosmetics. It's considered a big company in Zhonghai, even nationwide. I heard from the news that their PR department is hiring, and they're not limited to gender. I heard many men are eager to apply."

"The PR department? Men applying?" Yang Chen realized, then asked, "So, Yulei International must have a lot of beautiful women?"

"Yeah, good salary, good benefits, and most importantly, Yulei International is known for having the most beautiful women in Zhonghai. After all, they deal with fashion and cosmetics. I suppose that's what you're looking for, right, dear husband?" Rose gave him a look that said, "I still don't understand you."

Yang Chen didn't feel embarrassed. He nodded approvingly, "Good suggestion, good suggestion. Salary doesn't matter much, the surroundings are what's important. Well... I'll go back and check the information, then apply tomorrow."

After Yang Chen left the room for a while, Rose, lying on the bed, looked at the closed door and let out a soft sigh. What Rose didn't know was that after Yang Chen left, he also patted his chest and let out a relieved sigh, muttering to himself, "That was close, being a kept man is really nerve-wracking."

After leaving the Rose Bar, Yang Chen drove straight back, almost taking the wrong route because he wasn't used to the fact that he had moved into the luxurious villa in Longjing Gardens.

The thought of going home and possibly facing Lin Ruoxi's beautiful yet icy-cold face unexpectedly filled Yang Chen with a small sense of anticipation. His wife always made him feel like teasing her, as if they were sworn enemies from a past life.

As the car drove into the suburbs and just exited the highway, Yang Chen suddenly noticed a car behind him repeatedly flashing its high beams at him. Furrowing his brow, Yang Chen chose to switch lanes to avoid it. But as soon as he moved to the other lane, another car behind him began flashing its lights at him, casting a bright reflection in the rearview mirror.

At this time, the traffic on the suburban main road was sparse, and it was a two-lane road in one direction. Yang Chen felt somewhat frustrated realizing that he seemed to have caught the attention of a group of street racers...

However, the BMW M3 was no ordinary car. It was essentially at the top of the pyramid of mass-produced sports cars, not something that ordinary cars could easily catch up to. This group of street racers obviously had impressive rides.

Sure enough, before Yang Chen could figure out how to deal with it, two cars from the group suddenly roared past him from both sides! One black and one white, the two cars accelerated fiercely, leaving the BMW M3 behind at its 120 km/h speed. Then, the two cars positioned themselves side by side, blocking the path ahead of the M3!

Yang Chen finally got a clear view of the two cars in front of him. To his surprise, they were a Ferrari F430 and a BMW M6!

Both cars were super sports cars that could outperform his M3. Although the F430 had been discontinued in the Ferrari lineup and was not considered a new car anymore, it was still a Ferrari. With a top speed of 320 km/h, it wasn't just boasting; it was the roar of its engine!

As for the BMW M6, despite only having a 3 added to his own M3, it belonged to the BMW 6 Series. With a 5.0-liter engine, it was not something easy to deal with. With a price tag of over 700,000 RMB, it was definitely a luxury item!
