Chapter 2003: To Win, One Can Use Any Means Necessary

~7 min read 1,330 words

Seeing this message, Wei Yangyang curled her lips.

She felt this guy was just trying to save face.

But Li Xingyan... he really was doing it on purpose.

He knew that if Wei Yangyang saw a typo, she would remind him.

And then, with this back-and-forth, couldn't they start interacting?

Li Xingyan was calculating his own little schemes.

Meanwhile, Su Kexuan, sitting across from Li Xingyan, felt helpless.

She had already been waiting for a long time.

Yet this guy was just focused on sending messages.

Finally, Su Kexuan broke the silence in resignation: "How long do you intend to keep flirting?"

The one who could make Li Xingyan smile with such human warmth had to be that little sister Yangyang.

Although Su Kexuan supported Li Xingyan in communicating more with young women and building a connection,

that did not mean she was willing to be a background prop.

At this moment, Su Kexuan just wanted to finish discussing business quickly.

Then Li Xingyan could flirt however much he wanted.

Hearing Su Kexuan's words, Li Xingyan didn't even lift his head.

He simply pushed a document over and said, "The details are inside; read it yourself, and ask me if you don't understand."

This attitude was quite perfunctory.

However, Su Kexuan was not perfunctory; she read it very carefully.

And the questions she raised afterward were also quite profound.

Don't look at Li Xingyan as if he were distracted.

But when he opened his mouth to answer questions, he was very much on point.

After hearing his explanations, Su Kexuan often felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.

It's just that...

"What on earth are you two chatting about so heatedly?"

Su Kexuan was very curious and asked Li Xingyan for a bit of insight.

Li Xingyan was quite generous and shared the answer with Su Kexuan: "Typos."

Yet this answer made Su Kexuan raise an eyebrow.

Then, Su Kexuan couldn't help but shake her head: "As expected of the ambiguous phase; you can even find sparks to discuss in such a boring topic."

Whether it was boring or not, Li Xingyan didn't want to explain to Su Kexuan.

He only asked: "Have you understood everything you needed to?"

"Yes."

"Then in the future, if there is anything that needs communicating, contact me by phone; don't meet in person if you can avoid it."

"Why is that?"

"It's nothing, I just need to maintain an appropriate distance from the opposite sex."

When Li Xingyan said this, he was dead serious.

Su Kexuan, however, was amused.

She asked: "You haven't even found a girlfriend yet, and you're already upholding 'male virtue' like this?"

"You have the order wrong; only by upholding it is it possible to find a girlfriend."

These words... why did they seem to be implying something?

Su Kexuan rolled her eyes, then tentatively asked: "What, is Wei Yangyang bothered by it?"

"A little, though she isn't bothered by you, but by your type of person."

This was a bit convoluted.

Su Kexuan thought for a moment before she understood what he meant.

Then, Su Kexuan curled her lips and said with a smile: "If she's bothered, it means she has you in her heart. If I put in a little more effort, the little girl might just get stimulated and throw herself into your arms!"

This kind of hypothesis sounded very wonderful.

But if something went wrong...

Li Xingyan refused without hesitation: "No!"

"Why not? Remember, there is pressure only where there is motivation!"

"But you will scare her away!"

"Wei Yangyang isn't that timid."

"... Alright, I know Yangyang better than you do, and I know what to do!"

Li Xingyan was afraid that if he kept talking, he would lose his composure, so he ended the topic.

Seeing his unnegotiable manner, Su Kexuan couldn't help but sigh: "You really are too stubborn."

"I have my own plans."

"Fine, then I wish you success in getting what you want soon."

Seeing that there was nothing left for her to do here, Su Kexuan stood up and left.

Before leaving, she even looked back.

And then she saw Li Xingyan holding his phone, smiling slightly.

Sigh, he really has fallen for her.

After a moment of reflection, Su Kexuan left alone.

However, as she was heading to the parking lot by herself, Su Kexuan was called by name.

She turned back to look and couldn't help but freeze.

Xin Ziran walked out slowly and said with a smile, "Long time no see."

"It's you?!"

Seeing an old acquaintance, there was no smile on Su Kexuan's face; instead, it was full of wariness.

Seeing this, Xin Ziran asked a question he already knew the answer to: "We are old acquaintances, why do you have such an expression when you see me?"

"I didn't expect you to appear suddenly."

"Actually, I've been here for a while and even met with Xingyan, but unfortunately, he doesn't remember me anymore."

As Xin Ziran spoke, his face still carried a look of melancholy.

Su Kexuan then spoke the truth: "Back then, he didn't take you to heart, let alone now."

As the words fell, Su Kexuan suddenly realized something.

This made her stare at Xin Ziran immediately and press him: "You came here, surely it's not for Xingyan, is it?"

"Exactly!"

"What do you want to do?"

"To beat him fair and square once."

"Fair and square?"

Su Kexuan muttered these four words, then curled her lip.

Xin Ziran said with a half-smile: "You seem to have doubts about my character."

"Do I still need to doubt it? You stop at nothing to win."

"Hmm, in that regard, we are actually the same."

Su Kexuan immediately drew a line between herself and Xin Ziran, saying: "Don't, I am not like you. Even if I use tactics, they are aboveboard, unlike you, pretending to be innocent."

"Hey, never mind what tactics they are, all roads lead to the same destination; anyway, in the end, as long as you can win, that's all that matters."

"But you couldn't beat Li Xingyan back then, and now, you have even less of a way to win."

"Is that so? Then you can look forward to it."

As Xin Ziran spoke, his face still hung with a confident smile.

This person was difficult to deal with to begin with.

To be targeted by him...

What a nuisance.

But this had nothing to do with Su Kexuan.

Su Kexuan raised her eyebrows and was about to leave.

But Xin Ziran called her back and offered a benefit: "I know you are cooperating with Li Xingyan; if you can lend me a hand, I can double your profits."

Su Kexuan was not tempted.

She tilted her head and sighed: "Hey, the conditions offered are truly tempting. But unfortunately, I am not a greedy person."

"But you must cooperate with me!"

Su Kexuan detected the threatening tone in the other party's words.

She turned her head back, curled her lips, and asked: "What, have you caught some handle on me?"

Xin Ziran did not answer.

But he handed over a few pages of documents.

Su Kexuan glanced at them and sighed: "You, you are still as despicable as ever."

Although she scolded him, Xin Ziran smiled very happily: "Say whatever you want, consider it, and give me an answer later."

"You have already got a hold on me, do I still need to consider it? Tell me, what do you need me to do?"

"Just help me do one thing."

Seeing that Su Kexuan finally relented, Xin Ziran's smile deepened.

He handed over a USB drive and said: "There is a program inside; find a way to install it on Li Xingyan's phone."

"What kind of program? It's clearly a virus, the kind that can monitor other people's phones, right?"

After hearing this, Xin Ziran smiled and did not deny it.

Li Beijue's expression darkened instantly; he stood up abruptly and strode out.
