Chapter 162: Bundle up! Don't catch a cold

After they finished exchanging pleasantries, the short guy and Matsusaka Keiko left the station together.

The short guy walked on, muttering something under his breath, while Matsusaka Keiko beside him showed impatience and quickened her pace.

Standing over 1.6 meters tall, with long legs and a big stride, she quickly pulled ahead of the short guy.

As she stepped out of the station, Li Xin smiled and said to her, "Miss Keiko, I've been waiting a while. Where shall we eat? You pick the place."

Matsusaka Keiko grew even more interested in this young man; on the plane he had struck someone, yet the airport police could say there was no evidence and had no authority to arrest him.

Such an aura isn't something an ordinary merchant could have; she was happy to continue their plane conversation, and if anything else happened, she'd be delighted.

"Thirty like a wolf, forty like a tiger"—it's not just talk!

So, friends, if you've got a bit of physique and looks, don't waste money chasing young girls!

There are plenty of older women who'll spend money on you, as long as you're in good shape.

Otherwise, you can't handle this line of work!

Li Xin felt fortunate; besides his good physique, he really had no other strengths, which happened to suit the older woman's taste.

Matsusaka Keiko smiled and said, "I happen to know a distinctive izakaya we can try. Let's go."

Li Xin turned to Kusakari Rou and said, "Hey, Rou, look—I have a beautiful woman with me. You can go back and report to Mr. Kusakari Kazuo; I'll visit him another day."

Kusakari Rou bowed again and said, "All right, Li Xin—I won't disturb your fun. I'll pass along your regards to my foster father; enjoy yourself."

"I'll leave two people at your disposal, ready to handle any minor troubles for you, so no one will bother you. Looking forward to seeing you again—I take my leave now."

Everyone parted in the parking lot; Ha Ge brought two sedans and a minibus to pick them up.

Li Xin brought over about thirty people; sedans would be a hassle, so this minibus was just right.

The two Yamaguchi Group members had their own cars and followed behind the others' vehicles.

Li Xin and Matsusaka Keiko rode in the lead car, with Ha Ge driving, Jianjun in the passenger seat, and Matsusaka Keiko's attendants in the car behind.

Li Xin and Matsusaka Keiko went to the izakaya she had mentioned, whose owner called himself the "Grilled Bird Immortal"—a tacky title, as there are far too many such "immortals" in Japan, all of them a dime a dozen.

Just a skewer of grilled chicken or some fish balls, and they'd whip up an "immortal" out of it.

Li Xin was also impressed!

Eating the skewers and drinking the bland sake, he found the meal unpleasant.

Halfway through, he strongly demanded to change restaurants, wanting to eat something else.

Matsusaka Keiko didn't refuse; she gave Li Xin a flirtatious glance, picked up her bag, and told her attendants, "You can head back—I'll see you at the office tomorrow."

"All right, Miss Keiko!"

It's clear Matsusaka Keiko holds some standing at her company—a rarity in Japan, where men are treated like beasts of burden, women like tools, and the workload is immense.

Inside a suite at a five-star hotel in Kyoto, what's there to eat? Business comes first—he wants to discuss a multi‑billion‑yen deal with Miss Keiko.

Li Xin lay in the bathtub while Miss Keiko scrubbed his back, her fingers thorough and meticulous, touching every inch of his solid muscles, making his heart race.

This young man's body is so perfect it's practically every mature woman's dream.

Gliding over that firm yet elastic body was also a pleasure for her.

Li Xin, too, was made flustered by her wandering fingers; he turned over and gave her a smile.

One night of fun, really ……!

This woman is superb—her skin is smooth, her complexion fair and glowing, and above all her long legs are irresistible.

This woman is also smart—she didn't ask about yesterday's events, and before parting she flirtatiously said to him,

"Tonight I want to eat my fill—don't run off after work; I'll call you when I'm done."

Li Xin laughed as they parted, raising his brows and saying, "I'll be waiting—not just for a full meal, but for a good one; it all depends on your appetite."

After Matsusaka Keiko left, Jianguo hurried over and said urgently, "Boss, teach me—I want to learn too. This is too fast! We've only known each other a few hours—how can you already be like this?"

As several people headed to the hotel restaurant, Li Xin walked along, imparting his experience.

"This sort of thing depends on the person—not anyone can pull it off. Starting with politeness, then a sudden challenge, and ending unscathed, that's what makes her interested in me."

"Once a woman shows interest in a man, my goal is met; add that she also has a notion about me, and things fall into place naturally."

"Once she enters the room and sees my physique, this interest only intensifies; when a woman becomes emotionally aroused, she can be even more frenzied than a man."

"I'm talking about passion—in that situation, what you want to do depends on whether you have the strength to conquer this woman."

Li Xin's words left several people dumbfounded! What more is there to say about picking up girls?

Even the battle‑scarred Ha Ge sighed, "What a field of study! Deep, very deep—worth your research, youngsters."

Li Xin gave him the middle finger and said, "Stop pretending to be an old man—talking like you're some age."

After breakfast, several people came to Li Xin's room, each with a cigarette in mouth.

After taking a drag, Li Xin finally spoke: "Ha Ge, how's the coordination with the TV stations going? Any good time slots?"

Ha Ge replied directly: "The TV stations are all set; following your request, we'll air twice during the lunch break, three times in the evening, and once every hour."

"It's all thanks to the Yamaguchi Group's connections, so the fees are fair—no price gouging."

Li Xin nodded and said, "Good. Have you contacted all the Southeast Asian countries?"

"I have—I've spent the past six months traveling all over Southeast Asia, tracking down old contacts everywhere and getting things sorted; I still have that pull."

Hearing Ha Ge say that, Li Xin relaxed at once, thinking, "This is the network of a counterfeit‑money big boss—something ordinary underworld folks can't match."

"Ha Ge, after the product sells, the next step is a customer feedback survey—we must register everyone's detailed information."

"That's hugely useful for me—I'll single out the unmarried, child‑less individuals, the more detailed the better; that's key for the next move."

After Li Xin finished, the corners of his mouth turned up; in Japan, the major banks are now begging others for loans, pulling out all stops to meet their quotas.

That works just fine!

Li Xin helped them complete their task—now there are people as kind‑hearted as he is.

That's all!
