Peng Fei's heart trembled again at his words.
Didn't everyone in the country know about the Zhan Group?
Was her family really that rich, famous, and influential?
Was she once such a high-and-mighty, favored daughter of heaven?
Pitiable that he was full of love for her, yet never believed her claims about her background.
Rather than disbelief, it was unwillingness to believe.
He knew he was incompetent, poor, and humble. Just her appearance alone was ten thousand miles ahead of him. Besides a moment of selfish affection, what else could he do to keep her?
Peng Fei dared not hope to see Zhan Jingchun any sooner. What if he did?
Even though they had once had a child, she was still the high and mighty young lady, and he was a penniless nobody.
If they met again, she still wouldn't look him in the eye, nor would she speak to him properly.
Even if he was full of remorse and wanted to dig out his heart to show her, she might not care.
He once again realized the importance of money and wanted to work hard to earn it, eagerly, wishing he could become rich overnight. Only then would he have a slight qualification to beg for her forgiveness.
"It's nothing, I just saw it and was asking."
Peng Fei tried to hide his emotions and asked his agent.
"You just said you had a way for me to get rich overnight, does that still count?"
The agent thought that with Peng Fei's personality, he wouldn't be interested in his proposal, but he changed his mind so quickly.
"Why the sudden change of heart? Do you really want to make money that badly?"
Actually, it was a redundant question. From the first moment he saw Peng Fei, his desire for money was written all over his face.
"Yes, I want to make money. Brother, please help me."
The agent was more than happy. Peng Fei was his person. If he made money, it was equivalent to himself making money, without having to exert himself. How good was that?
He immediately contacted a friend and took him to a high-end club that ordinary people couldn't enter.
Nowadays, with money, not only men played, but women did too.
The business the agent wanted to involve him in was women's business.
Many young and beautiful rich women, for various reasons, chose to have fun at the club late at night. They were afraid of being tainted and had high demands. The club's resident male models were all old hands, and these high-class rich women looked down on them. They only wanted young and handsome male college students or newly debuted small models. Peng Fei was perfect for this.
The agent had also gone through several connections to get Peng Fei in, saying it humbly.
He just had to go in and pour wine for the ladies and provide service. Whether they would fancy him was another matter. It was giving the kid a chance to shine.
Peng Fei didn't know what he was supposed to do. He followed the agent into the luxurious money pit, feeling both nervous and curious.
It wasn't until the private room door was pushed open that he realized something when he saw three exceptionally elegant and sophisticated beauties sitting side by side inside.
He had heard about it before in the modeling team. Could it be that the agent wanted him to...
That wouldn't do.
Although Zhan Jingchun and he hadn't registered their marriage, and they had lost contact now, he had always considered himself a married man. Such betrayal was absolutely unacceptable.
The agent bowed and greeted the beauties servilely, while he stopped at the door, looking at them with rejection.
Perhaps he was destined not to make a lot of money. He dared not even imagine such a scene.
Peng Fei was thrifty. The Uniqlo hoodie and pants he was wearing were bought because the agent forced him to wear them to meet people.
They were his most presentable clothes, but in such an occasion, they were still pitifully shabby.
Chen Jiaojiao, in order to maintain her clientele, would occasionally organize gatherings and invite influential sisters to have fun.
Today's gathering was also organized by her.
Besides her, the other two were wives with unhappy marriages.
Although they each had their own handsome young men privately, they still wanted to change their tastes from time to time.
So, when they heard that a newcomer was to be sent to entertain them, everyone was very excited.
Glancing at Peng Fei, Mrs. Tang put down her wine glass with a smile.
"Is this the newcomer who came today? He looks alright. How old is he? How tall? Why are you standing so far away? Come closer and let me see."
Seeing a glimmer of hope, the agent immediately beckoned Peng Fei, "I'm talking to you, come over and answer the lady, why are you standing so far away?"
Peng Fei forced himself to walk a few steps forward and stammered, "I'm 22 this year, and I'm 187 centimeters tall."
"Oh, your voice is quite pleasant, and you're only 22."
Mrs. Tang was clearly interested in him.
Chen Jiaojiao, being sharp, immediately smiled, stood up, and walked over to Peng Fei, looking him up and down.
"He's so stiff, he must be a newcomer. Kid, you're lucky to catch Sister Tang's eye as soon as you arrive. You'll have good fortune from now on."
"Why don't you go over and sit with Sister Tang? What's your name? Introduce yourself."
It was exactly what he had thought, and Peng Fei felt a genuine sense of resistance.
He knew that doing so would embarrass his agent, even displease him, but he had to tell the truth.
"I'm sorry, ladies. I didn't know I was coming here to do this. I..."
They all looked at him uniformly. Hearing him say sorry, Mrs. Tang was a little surprised.
In terms of figure, appearance, or status, she had never been at a disadvantage with any man. This kid actually looked down on her?
"What do you mean?"
Feeling a little embarrassed, she spoke gently, but her eyes turned cold as she looked at the agent.
The agent also didn't expect Peng Fei to be so unpromising. He himself said he wanted to make money, but now he was backing out at the last minute after all the effort?
"Sister Tang, please don't be angry. This child comes from the mountains and has never seen the world. It's his first time seeing a beautiful woman like you, so he's naturally nervous and doesn't know how to speak. Give him a chance."
The excuse was perfect, and Sister Tang looked at Peng Fei again.
But Peng Fei was still unpromising, "I am indeed nervous, and it is indeed my first time. I don't know what you want me to do..."
"Pfft!"
The ladies couldn't help but laugh at the same time.
Sister Tang never expected to encounter someone like this one day.
"Where did you find this kid? Could he still be a virgin?"
The agent forced a smile and was about to praise Peng Fei, but he spoke again himself.
"No, I'm married."
"I can do whatever you ladies need. I'm strong and can endure hardship, but if... I'm sorry."
The private room fell into an eerie silence. Even the agent was stunned.
Peng Fei was actually married?
This kid, he didn't say it before, but now he says it. Isn't he intentionally trying to ruin my career?
After a few seconds of awkwardness, he was so angry that he rushed over to slap Peng Fei, but Mrs. Tang stopped him.
"Don't move."
"It's good to tell the truth. I'm not angry, why hit him?"
"You go out first. I'm keeping him."
The agent couldn't guess the rich women's tastes, but seeing that they weren't angry, he breathed a sigh of relief and left with a nod and a bow.
Before leaving, he warned Peng Fei with his eyes not to talk nonsense anymore!
Peng Fei's palms were sweating nervously. He didn't know if telling the truth was a good thing or not. He stood there blankly, waiting for Mrs. Tang's instructions.
The three rich women were clearly very interested in his experience. After the agent left, they gently patted the seats beside them, inviting him to sit down.
"Don't be afraid, we don't eat people. Come and sit."
