But you need to understand that by choosing to cooperate with you at this time, I'm taking a huge risk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't fully trust you, and you can't fully trust me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had to be said that this woman's words made a lot of sense. Chen Fan was almost persuaded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes wandered over this woman's body twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had to be said that Lin Xue was a very sexy woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maturity of a woman in her thirties was undeniably displayed on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, no woman who could be someone's mistress was simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, Chen Fan wasn't interested in her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm sorry. I don't agree with your suggestion. Let's change the condition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flash of undisguised disappointment crossed Lin Xue's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze turned slightly resentful as it drifted towards Chen Fan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You think I'm too old?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan shook his head: \"Older women often understand people's hearts better and know how to care for others more.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you think I'm dirty. You despise my background.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue's eyes were downcast, with a tearful and aggrieved look on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't think any woman is born wanting to choose this path. As a woman, many times we don't have a choice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I won't defend my past, but I can promise you that I've only been with one man in my life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan explained very seriously: \"I have a fiancée.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue was stunned, her expression strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you... serious?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan nodded: \"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue finally couldn't hold back and let out a \"pff\" of laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To be honest, your answer caught me off guard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In my view, isn't it normal for a big boss like you to have several women outside?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan shook his head and explained: \"I'm different from them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right here, right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as you're willing, I'm yours anytime. At your disposal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I won't object to anything you want to do to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can promise you, once we leave this room, no one will ever know about what happened today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan leaned back, simply not bothering to answer this question anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of silence, this woman suddenly bit her lip and said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually... if you don't mind, I can be your mistress.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan suddenly raised his hand to interrupt her, his face becoming somewhat displeased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't mention this topic again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've said it before, this condition is impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Choose another one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue, on the contrary, became angry too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She crossed her arms angrily and leaned back on the sofa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I have nothing more to say, anyway, I don't want money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Chen, don't you think you're being very selfish?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The person you want to bring down is my backer. Without showing some sincerity, why should I help you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan frowned: \"I can give you money. Enough money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of mockery flashed in Lin Xue's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much is enough money? 100 million yuan? 1 billion yuan? Are you willing to part with that much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Money will always run out one day. I'm a fragile woman, the thing I fear most in life is lack of security...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you want to bring me onto your ship, you need to show some sincerity, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue glanced at Chen Fan and snorted lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You can't expect the horse to run without feeding it grass, can you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The word \"grass\" was said by this woman with a thousand twists and turns, making Chen Fan shudder all over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This woman is a vixen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the future, unless absolutely necessary, it's best to never meet her again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this woman glaring at him angrily, Chen Fan frowned and considered for a few seconds before slowly speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have another way here. This is my last concession. If you still don't agree, then I can only give up on cooperating.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue became interested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's hear it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan looked at her: \"I understand your thoughts. You just want to bind yourself to me, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not that complicated. You don't want money, that's fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as the club doesn't go bankrupt in the future, you'll always be able to receive dividends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And this way, we'll also have a business connection.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue's eyes flickered, seeming somewhat interested in this proposal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This idea... shows some sincerity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want 40% of the shares without investment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impossible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lin Xue was unusually persistent, \"I can guarantee you that what I provide will 100% help you deal with the Zhao family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan still shook his head, not giving an inch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue gritted her teeth: \"30%. 30% of the shares without investment should be okay, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm risking my life to cooperate with you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan was amused inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>30% of the shares without investment is considered a small matter. She's dreaming big.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking for a moment, Chen Fan spoke: \"20% of the shares without investment. No more than that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xue frowned, seeming somewhat unwilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"20%... it's not impossible. But I have another condition.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan was getting a bit irritated by this woman's antics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The first branch of your club must be in the city I choose.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>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?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan was already too lazy to argue with her about such small matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me, which city do you want to choose?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shudu,\" Lin Xue hesitated for a moment before saying a name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Fan was a bit surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally thought she would choose Beijing or Shanghai, those first-tier big cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't expect her to choose Shudu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can I ask why?\" Chen Fan was genuinely curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, a hint of reminiscence appeared in Lin Xue's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's where I was born...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"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.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For more than 20 years since then, I've never been back to that place...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1456,"2026-06-05T15:07:00.403Z",1,"novelbin.me","5779aa1cb9f59d05522d4f0b878923ad8075209fc6ac65c4ceef01ae41ed6ffc","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-653","reborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-chapter-651",761,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-in-2000-starting-from-pursuing-the-pure-h-cover.jpg"]
