Chapter 652: Chen Fan's Sincerity
Lin Xue looked at Chen Fan very seriously.
"I know what you're thinking. But you need to understand that by choosing to cooperate with you at this time, I'm taking a huge risk."
"I can't fully trust you, and you can't fully trust me."
"So the first thing we need to establish between us is mutual trust. And the best way to build mutual trust is to start by sharing a secret."
"As long as you sleep with me, we'll have a shared secret from now on, and we'll be in the same boat. Naturally, I'll tell you everything I know without reservation."
It had to be said that this woman's words made a lot of sense. Chen Fan was almost persuaded.
His eyes wandered over this woman's body twice.
It had to be said that Lin Xue was a very sexy woman.
She might not be the type of beauty that catches the eye at first glance, but if you looked at her for a while, you'd realize she truly had charm.
The maturity of a woman in her thirties was undeniably displayed on her.
Add to that her sexy red lips, voluptuous figure, and especially her intelligence and understanding nature, she could always sweet-talk a man in just a few words.
Indeed, no woman who could be someone's mistress was simple.
Unfortunately, Chen Fan wasn't interested in her.
"I'm sorry. I don't agree with your suggestion. Let's change the condition."
A flash of undisguised disappointment crossed Lin Xue's eyes.
Her gaze turned slightly resentful as it drifted towards Chen Fan.
"You think I'm too old?"
Chen Fan shook his head: "Older women often understand people's hearts better and know how to care for others more."
"Then you think I'm dirty. You despise my background."
Lin Xue's eyes were downcast, with a tearful and aggrieved look on her face.
"I don't think any woman is born wanting to choose this path. As a woman, many times we don't have a choice."
"I won't defend my past, but I can promise you that I've only been with one man in my life."
Chen Fan waved his hand: "You're overthinking. I'm not looking down on you. Everyone is earning money with their own abilities. I can't guarantee that I'm a good person either, so no one has the right to look down on anyone else."
"Then you..."
Chen Fan explained very seriously: "I have a fiancée."
Lin Xue was stunned, her expression strange.
As if she was getting to know Chen Fan all over again, her expression seemed like she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.
"Are you... serious?"
Chen Fan nodded: "Of course."
Lin Xue finally couldn't hold back and let out a "pff" of laughter.
"To be honest, your answer caught me off guard."
"I've met many people, rich and powerful. No matter how dignified and gentlemanly they appear in public, who knows how many dirty things they've done behind closed doors."
"In my view, isn't it normal for a big boss like you to have several women outside?"
Chen Fan shook his head and explained: "I'm different from them."
Lin Xue raised an eyebrow: "I'm just asking you to sleep with me once. I didn't say you had to take responsibility for me."
"Right here, right now."
"As long as you're willing, I'm yours anytime. At your disposal."
"I won't object to anything you want to do to me."
"I can promise you, once we leave this room, no one will ever know about what happened today."
Chen Fan leaned back, simply not bothering to answer this question anymore.
Hmph.
Lin Xue wrinkled her pretty nose, such a coquettish action falling on this woman in her thirties didn't seem out of place at all.
After a moment of silence, this woman suddenly bit her lip and said softly.
"Actually... if you don't mind, I can be your mistress."
"I'm very honest, very obedient, I won't cry or make a fuss, I'm understanding and gentle... you can buy a house and keep me there."
"In the future, if you're tired from work, want to relax, or just want to chat with a woman, you can always come find me..."
"Stop!"
Chen Fan suddenly raised his hand to interrupt her, his face becoming somewhat displeased.
"Don't mention this topic again."
"I've said it before, this condition is impossible."
"Choose another one."
Lin Xue, on the contrary, became angry too.
She crossed her arms angrily and leaned back on the sofa.
"Then I have nothing more to say, anyway, I don't want money."
"Mr. Chen, don't you think you're being very selfish?"
"The person you want to bring down is my backer. Without showing some sincerity, why should I help you?"
Chen Fan frowned: "I can give you money. Enough money."
A hint of mockery flashed in Lin Xue's eyes.
"How much is enough money? 100 million yuan? 1 billion yuan? Are you willing to part with that much?"
"Money will always run out one day. I'm a fragile woman, the thing I fear most in life is lack of security..."
"The person you're dealing with is not an ordinary person. It's the Zhao family of Yunhai and a big shot from the provincial government. Neither of them is someone a weak woman like me can stand up against."
"If you want to bring me onto your ship, you need to show some sincerity, right?"
Lin Xue glanced at Chen Fan and snorted lightly.
"You can't expect the horse to run without feeding it grass, can you?"
The word "grass" was said by this woman with a thousand twists and turns, making Chen Fan shudder all over.
Damn it.
This woman is a vixen.
In the future, unless absolutely necessary, it's best to never meet her again.
Seeing this woman glaring at him angrily, Chen Fan frowned and considered for a few seconds before slowly speaking.
"I have another way here. This is my last concession. If you still don't agree, then I can only give up on cooperating."
Lin Xue became interested.
"Let's hear it."
Chen Fan looked at her: "I understand your thoughts. You just want to bind yourself to me, right?"
"It's not that complicated. You don't want money, that's fine."
"Recently, my Medal Club is planning to choose locations in other cities to open branches. If you're willing, I can give you a 10% stake."
"As long as the club doesn't go bankrupt in the future, you'll always be able to receive dividends."
"And this way, we'll also have a business connection."
"How about it?"
Lin Xue's eyes flickered, seeming somewhat interested in this proposal.
"This idea... shows some sincerity."
"I want 40% of the shares without investment."
Chen Fan shook his head.
"Impossible."
But Lin Xue was unusually persistent, "I can guarantee you that what I provide will 100% help you deal with the Zhao family."
Chen Fan still shook his head, not giving an inch.
Lin Xue gritted her teeth: "30%. 30% of the shares without investment should be okay, right?"
"I'm risking my life to cooperate with you."
Seeing Chen Fan's expressionless face, Lin Xue couldn't help but mutter: "You're such a big boss, is it necessary to haggle over such small matters with a woman like me?"
Chen Fan was amused inside.
30% of the shares without investment is considered a small matter. She's dreaming big.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Fan spoke: "20% of the shares without investment. No more than that."
Lin Xue frowned, seeming somewhat unwilling.
"20%... it's not impossible. But I have another condition."
Chen Fan was getting a bit irritated by this woman's antics.
"Speak."
"The first branch of your club must be in the city I choose."
Lin Xue's reason was very sufficient, "What if you choose a backward fifth or sixth-tier city where you can't earn much in a year? Who am I supposed to cry to then?"
Chen Fan was already too lazy to argue with her about such small matters.
"Tell me, which city do you want to choose?"
"Shudu," Lin Xue hesitated for a moment before saying a name.
Chen Fan was a bit surprised.
He had originally thought she would choose Beijing or Shanghai, those first-tier big cities.
He didn't expect her to choose Shudu.
"Can I ask why?" Chen Fan was genuinely curious.
For the first time, a hint of reminiscence appeared in Lin Xue's eyes.
"That's where I was born..."
"When I was 12 years old, I accompanied my mother to the county town for the first time, and I was kidnapped by human traffickers."
"For more than 20 years since then, I've never been back to that place..."
