After Being Betrayed I Married the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 266 - 264: That Kid’s Got the Real Deal!

A fragrant aroma wafted through the air, instantly intoxicating Shen Fanyun. He had to admit, the scent emanating from the voluptuous Li Huanhuan was truly delightful.

"We're talking about Wen Ruyue, you know. She's a huge star in this country, the very pinnacle of top-tier celebrities, with at least tens of millions of fans. She's a household name, a megastar active in film, television, and music."

"She's so beautiful and sexy, with an explosive figure, and you don't like a woman like that? It's baffling."

Shen Fanyun laughed and retorted, "Aren't you sexier and more beautiful?"

"Why would I ignore a beauty like you in your twenties to pay attention to some woman who's in her late thirties, nearly forty?"

Besides, when it came to women between thirty and forty, Shen Fanyun had a far better option. At that age, Lin Meiqing was practically a goddess, annihilating all competitors. Wen Ruyue was just lucky enough to become a star, which earned her all that praise. In a real comparison, whether against the younger Li Huanhuan or the forty-year-old Lin Meiqing, she didn't stand a chance.

Shen Fanyun had no interest in such a gaudy piece of eye candy, a woman who reeked of vulgarity. He couldn't even muster a flicker of sexual desire.

"Master, you're getting so good with compliments. Your words are so sweet," Li Huanhuan said, her eyes sparkling as she gave Shen Fanyun's butt a hard pinch. "Your dislike for her seems to be more than just simple disinterest. I have a feeling... did Wen Ruyue offend you somehow?"

Li Huanhuan was curious. Shen Fanyun clearly had the status to interact with a superstar like her, so did they have an unpleasant encounter? She was very confident in her intuition and could tell at a glance that there was bad blood between them. If there was bad blood, it meant they must have met in private. As she connected the dots, Li Huanhuan grew even more interested in Shen Fanyun's background, wondering just how powerful he really was.

Hehe, how awesome to have someone like him as my master. Under his tutelage, I'll become a true heroine! Oh yeah! she secretly mused.

Shen Fanyun glanced back, only now noticing something odd. Li Huanhuan was awake, but… did this girl have some kind of strange psychological issue? Why did she dislike wearing clothes so much? Shen Fanyun could barely understand not wearing any to sleep, but to be up and about, parading around with those two orbs swaying freely… wasn't it uncomfortable? So large... didn't they make it hard to breathe?

Shen Fanyun's eyes gradually brightened. Li Huanhuan, standing before him stark naked, was like a magnificent, living mural.

"We'll talk about Wen Ruyue later," Shen Fanyun said with a smile, sweeping the nearby Li Huanhuan into his arms. "Come on, let's go do something else we both love."

Li Huanhuan was speechless. "You… you're starting again? Hasn't it only been a short while since we finished?" she protested, pounding on his shoulders.

Though her words were reluctant, her body was far more honest. The moment Shen Fanyun tossed her onto the bed, she immediately adjusted her position, placing her hands on the pillow. With her back to him, she gave her own backside a playful smack.

"My Lord, your humble servant awaits your favor," Li Huanhuan said with a mischievous grin.

A surge of heat rushed through Shen Fanyun, and a smile curled on his lips. "You little vixen!" What a treasure she was!

「In Hangcheng City, at the Flying Peak Hotel.」

This hotel had once attracted countless tourists and businesspeople with its unique design and superior location. Even after so many years, it remained one of Hangcheng City's foremost luxury hotels and a local landmark. In terms of luxury, it was on par with the Cloud Hotel where Shen Fanyun was staying. Having been built earlier, it held a special place in the hearts of the local people. The hotel's architectural style perfectly blended modern and traditional craftsmanship, exuding a refined and dignified charm.

Entering the lobby, guests were greeted by a spacious and resplendent hall with a suspended ceiling. Its exquisite, luxurious decor and warm, attentive service had always been the Flying Peak Hotel's greatest strengths. The hotel offered a variety of room types, from opulent top-tier single bedrooms to presidential suites. Each room was outfitted with luxurious furnishings and facilities from abroad, designed to maximize the guest experience.

Furthermore, the hotel boasted various restaurants, bars, and cafes. It was a small, self-contained social circle where guests could enjoy a superior quality of life without ever needing to leave. Overall, the Flying Peak Hotel was a luxurious establishment integrating accommodation, dining, entertainment, and business. It was an ideal and hassle-free choice for both leisure and business travel. As long as you had the money, a comfortable stay was guaranteed.

Over the years, whenever Long Qingwen visited Hangcheng City for business, his first choice was always the Flying Peak Hotel. It was his personal preference.

"Good evening, Miss Wen."

"We've prepared your evening service. You may take a milk bath first, after which we will prepare a gourmet meal for you."

"Please, follow me, Miss Wen."

After attending the charity gala, Wen Ruyue returned safely to the hotel. The moment she got out of her car, a group of service staff with professional smiles eagerly accompanied her, followed by a swarm of reporters. However, they were all stopped at the door. Instead, Yuan Zhao and Hu Meng, two media personalities with special access, flanked Wen Ruyue's left and right.

Since the unpleasant incident with Shen Fanyun, Wen Ruyue had been staying here under Long Qingwen's arrangement. It was undeniable that the thoughtful service at the Flying Peak Hotel made her feel immensely comfortable while also perfectly protecting her privacy.

"Everyone, I'm going to rest now. See you all tomorrow," Wen Ruyue said, turning to wave at the reluctant reporters.

When they reached the presidential suite on the top floor, Long Qingwen was already there, drinking tea. His eyes lit up the moment Wen Ruyue returned. He didn't recognize Yuan Zhao and Hu Meng, however, so he reined in his frivolous demeanor. "And who might these two be?"

"Boss Long?" Yuan Zhao recognized him instantly. "The real estate tycoon from Capital City, Long Qingwen, Boss Long?"

"I've admired your reputation for so long. It's an honor to finally meet you today! A true honor!"

A broad smile spread across Yuan Zhao's face, and he immediately felt a wave of relief. He hadn't expected Wen Ruyue's connections and background to be this formidable. Even Boss Long is close with Wen Ruyue! Judging by their familiarity, their relationship must be more than a simple friendship. With such a powerful backer, what is there to fear? That measly Shen Fanyun is no longer a threat! Yuan Zhao refused to believe that Shen Fanyun, no matter how capable, could compete with this renowned real estate magnate from Capital City. Boss Long was a true man of influence, a prominent figure from an older, established generation. How could Shen Fanyun possibly compare?

Thinking of the humiliation he had suffered at Shen Fanyun's hands, Yuan Zhao seethed with indignation. You damn dog surnamed Shen, I'll make you pay a painful price sooner or later! I'll make you kneel before me and call me Daddy! Hmph!

"A pleasure to meet you, Boss Long. My name is Yuan Zhao," he said, flashing another sycophantic smile, his eyes filled with awe and admiration for Long Qingwen.

Long Qingwen nodded, his tone indifferent. "Hello." A man of his stature had a certain presence and depth, so his lack of enthusiasm toward Yuan Zhao was understandable. After all, they had never met and were not acquainted.

"That Shen fellow," Long Qingwen began, "he went to your company and beat up both you and Hu Meng?"

"It seems the kid really did come to stick up for Lu Feiyan. I had thought he was just some rich fool with more money than sense."

Wen Ruyue took off her coat, her expression grim. Since Shen Fanyun had actively sought out Yuan Zhao and Hu Meng, it meant he now knew all the details of her plan against Lu Feiyan. He knew that she, Wen Ruyue, was the true culprit behind the whole affair.

"That dog Shen actually had the gall to demand that I publicly apologize and, at that event, name you as the mastermind," Yuan Zhao spat. "Heh, that dog really underestimates me, Yuan Zhao. Am I the kind of person who betrays friends for personal gain?"

Though he spoke with bravado, he was secretly overwhelmed with relief. He and Hu Meng had been on the verge of buckling, ready to follow Shen Fanyun's orders and pin all the blame on Wen Ruyue. At the time, Shen Fanyun's demeanor was just too intimidating; they didn't have the courage or strength to resist. Looking back, he was incredibly fortunate not to have rushed into a confession and public apology. Otherwise, wouldn't he have completely and utterly offended Wen Ruyue? And now, with the famous Boss Long from Capital City backing her, it was obvious Shen Fanyun was no match for her. Yuan Zhao felt a smug satisfaction. He had once again sided with the right team in this conflict. Stick with Wen Ruyue, and I'll be fine. As for Shen Fanyun, he really kicked a steel plate this time. Who does he think he is, messing with Wen Ruyue? Even knowing she was the mastermind, he should have just swallowed his pride and accepted his bad luck! After all, Wen Ruyue is no ordinary person. Fighting her is like an egg trying to smash a rock—a suicidal overestimation of his own strength!

The group sat down, sipping tea peacefully. Just then, Xu Haofeng, who had previously confronted Shen Fanyun, also arrived at the suite.

Finally, Long Qingwen broke the silence. "So what's the deal with that kid's strength? How did your whole crew go over there and come back completely empty-handed?"

Xu Haofeng was one of his most capable subordinates, and Long Qingwen knew his temperament and character inside and out. If it weren't for some irresistible force, Xu Haofeng would never have fled in such a disheveled state.

"That… that kid… there's something uncanny about him," Xu Haofeng said, still visibly shaken from the encounter.

"How uncanny can he be?" Yuan Zhao scoffed. "In front of Sister Wen and Boss Long, he's just a worthless nobody." 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"That… that guy has a gun!" Xu Haofeng stammered, shuddering at the memory. He had truly taken a trip to the Ghost Gate and back.

Yuan Zhao was rendered speechless.

His casual, dismissive smile froze solid on his face. What? That guy has a gun? A real one?
