Chapter 569: Unexpected Discovery, Change of Strategy
In the living room, Michelle brought a glass of water and placed it in front of Chen An, looking a little unnatural.
"Xue'er, tell me now, what happened to Guan Guan that made him drink so much?"
Michelle looked strange, "Brother Chen, you really don't know? What did you do at noon?"
Chen An pretended to be very surprised, "You mean Guan Guan saw me at noon?"
"Well, we had lunch together at Futian Garden at noon, and I happened to see you and Ms. Andy acting very intimately. If I hadn't been quick at the time, the scene would have been embarrassing..."
Chen An sighed, "Xue'er, thank you for taking care of Guan Guan for me. When she wakes up, ask her to call me."
Seeing Chen An was about to leave, how could this be possible? I had been preparing for so long, and I thought about reaching out and grabbing Chen An's arm, "Brother Chen, it's so late, don't leave, and Guan Guan is a bit stubborn, there are some things you have to tell her in person."
"Okay, then you should go to bed early, I'll go see her..."
Michelle was so depressed that she vomited blood, but she still clung to him, hugged Chen An's arm and acted coquettishly, "Brother Chen, can you chat with me for a while? I'm in a bad mood recently..."
Although the touch on his arm was very comfortable, Chen An still looked at Michelle with an unfriendly expression.
"Xue'er, by doing this, are you worthy of Guan Guan treating you as a good sister?"
Facing Chen An's cold questioning, Michelle felt guilty for a moment, but she quickly cleared her mind and looked at Chen An with a firm look, "Brother Chen, I know this is not good and shameless, but I had a good impression of you the first time I saw you."
"Later, as we got to know each other better, I found that I was still slowly falling in love with you, especially that time when you stood up for me in front of my ex-boyfriend. I was really, really touched at that time. I also wanted to forget it, but I..."
Listening to Michelle's self-narrating inner monologue, Chen An couldn't help but feel a little surprised, because he found that there was not much acting element in it, everything seemed very natural. You know, Chen An himself has intermediate acting skills, unless her acting skills are better than his, it is impossible for her to be wrong.
"Brother Tongzi, scan..."
"Consume 50 points, system scanning..."
Name: Michelle
Age: 22 years old
Body: 87 points
Face value: 87 points
Favorability: 82
Health: 92 points
Shit, the favorability level is 82. It seems that what this girl said is true?
After frowning and thinking for a while, Chen An finally realized what he had overlooked.
With his looks and figure, he can attract the opposite sex. Generally speaking, the initial favorability will not be lower than fifty. What's more, he is rich and a first-generation rich man, which makes him even more lethal to women. What's more, a woman like Michelle, who is a bit materialistic and ambitious, is a fatal temptation.
In this situation, should I change my strategy? Try to turn this woman into my admirer or a licker? It seems quite challenging.
Seeing that Chen An still had a frown on his face after she had confessed for a long time, Michelle's heart sank little by little.
She has always been very confident about her appearance, figure, and even emotional intelligence.
But all of this is so insignificant in the eyes of this man. He is so outstanding, so righteous and kind, and everything is so perfect...
Especially today, seeing Andy and Chen An being intimate, on the one hand, it stimulated her and made her eager to get this man, but at the same time, she felt a vague inferiority in her heart. After all, people who didn't know Andy only saw her good side, and she was no exception.
Seeing the change in Michelle's eyes, Chen An felt very familiar with it. He had seen this expression on Guan Juer and Andy more than once.
Chen An raised his hand and gently stroked Michelle's chin. Looking at her surprised expression, he sighed softly, "Xue'er, I'm sorry. I didn't expect that my selfish behavior would cause you such a big misunderstanding."
Hearing this, Michelle's surprised expression suddenly turned anxious, "Brother Chen... I..."
Chen An gently pressed his finger on Michelle's lips and said, "Listen to what I have to say."
"Um..."
"Guan Guan is an introvert and lacks self-confidence. Because of her education since childhood, she is a bit rigid and dogmatic in doing things. She is not good at socializing and will not refuse others. So when I helped you, I just hoped that you could help me take care of her in the company."
"Actually, I noticed this tendency of yours before. Do you remember the sexy photos you sent me when I was in Beijing a few days ago?"
Michelle was very shy and explained anxiously, "Brother Chen, I really like you, but I don't know how to attract your attention. I'm really not such a wanton woman."
"Xue'er, you are a good girl. There is no need to belittle yourself, and there is no need to lower your bottom line for me. Don't put your mind on me. If I really want to get married, I will not choose you. Your name will not even be on the list of candidates."
Hearing such blunt and ruthless words, Michelle suddenly felt very inferior, but at the same time she was very touched. After all, she gave it to him for free. If it were an ordinary man, he would definitely not be able to resist. How could he not take advantage of the opportunity?
"Brother Chen, thank you for telling me so frankly, but I really can't accept it. This is the first time in my life that I like a man so much. Even if there is only a small chance, I don't want to give up."
"Xue'er, you are actually very good. You are beautiful, capable, and have a high EQ. You are restless and have your own ambitions. You are more motivated than most girls and are better. This is very good, very good."
"You can find a good man. There's really no need to waste your time on me. We're not suitable for each other."
Michelle was very happy to hear Chen An praising her, but she felt helpless and puzzled when she heard the following words, "Brother Chen, I know I'm not that good and I can't compare to Andy's ability, but I'm still young. Just give me time and I can learn."
Chen An shook his head and explained helplessly, "Andy is my partner. Our relationship is complicated. It's more than friendship, but less than love. But she is not the one I want to marry. I have told her this..."
Michelle was stunned when she heard this. She originally thought that her biggest competitor was the woman named Andy, but she didn't expect that, according to Brother Chen, that woman was at best a lover.
"Brother Chen, are you planning to marry Guan Guan?"
Chen An looked a little confused. "I can't really say for sure. Actually, I have been trying to cultivate Guan Guan slowly all along, hoping that she can grow up and accompany me one day. But the final result is not something I can control..."
"You have to understand that whether a family or a clan can be stable and prosperous, the role played by the mistress of the family is extremely important. So far, there is no suitable suitor around me..."
Michelle's eyes lit up. When Brother Chen said this, didn't it mean that she still had a chance and was not completely out?
"Brother Chen, I know these are just empty slogans, but I still don't want to give up. I will definitely work hard towards what you need. Please don't reject me, okay? Even if we can just be friends, I can chat with you occasionally."
Seeing the change in Michelle's favorability, Chen An understood. It seemed that this method was still useful. He gently stroked Michelle's face with a complicated look in his eyes. He hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Xue'er, you really make it difficult for me. I hope you get better and better, but I don't want you to..."
"Brother Chen, these are my own wishes. I don't mean to emotionally blackmail you..."
"Well, it's getting late, and you've drunk quite a bit. Go to bed early. If you run into any trouble in the future, you can call me."
"Thank you, Brother Chen." Michelle was very happy. Although she did not achieve her goal today, it seemed like a good start. At least she didn't have to worry about gains and losses all the time.
Chen An talked for a long time and felt a little thirsty, so he picked up the water on the table, drank it all, then stood up and went back to his room.
Michelle was a little dazed. The cup contained the liquid she had prepared just in case. Now that Brother Chen had drunk it, what did that mean?
Chen An returned to the bedroom and looked at Guan Juer's wrinkled face in her sleep. He couldn't help feeling helpless and distressed. He took off his clothes and got into bed. After lying down with the little girl in his arms for a while, Chen An suddenly felt something was wrong. It was similar to the last time in the bar.
After thinking about it for a while, I suddenly understood what was going on. I was speechless. What the hell, a handsome guy gets treated like a beauty? I didn't want to disturb the little girl's sleep, but now it seems that I just thought about it, and then I saw the door open, and Michelle walked in with her head down, holding the corner of her clothes...
"Brother Chen, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I was bewildered before..."
"Forget it, it's okay, go to sleep..."
"Brother Chen, can I make up for my mistake?" Michelle asked cautiously.
What the hell is this? On the one hand, I feel sorry for my little Guan Guan, and on the other hand, it only deepens Michelle's inferiority complex.
He gestured to Michelle, who was very surprised. Just as she was about to rush over, she was stopped by Chen An, who pointed at the trouble she had caused and said, "Guan Guan is asleep. Your movements are too big. It might wake her up."
Michelle was a little depressed, but she still crawled under the quilt obediently.
Chen An narrowed his eyes slightly, with a very bust look...
