<h4>Chapter 218 Meeting Chen Yn! (3)</h4>


    Ignoring her protests, Zhang Wei pulled Chen Yn along with him. Despite their venture outside causing a few of the clothes in her bag to get spoiled, she looked at them with a touch of pity.


    Fortunately, most of them had been packaged separately and remained unharmed.


    Chen Yn''s gaze then shifted to Zhang Wei, who was holding her hand. She seemed like she wanted to say something but ultimately decided against it. Instead, she followed him obediently.


    In just a few minutes of interaction, she had realized that the small boy she once knew had grown into a man whopletely overwhelmed her, both physically and in demeanor. She found herself being dragged along helplessly.


    Wu Xue, who observed the situation, could only smile bitterly at the turn of events.


    Zhang Wei''s assertiveness was a defining trait of his character. He seldom cared about what the women he encountered wanted and often made decisions for them.


    Interestingly, Wu Xue found this characteristic likable. To her, having a man who could make decisions on her behalf was preferable. She wanted to experience the feeling of depending on someone.


    It was a subtle contradiction in human nature. While some women might outwardly express displeasure when a man made decisions for them, their true desires often leaned the other way. Many secretly appreciated having someone to rely on.


    Of course, there were exceptions—women who had experienced trauma and were determined to maintain their independence.


    They tended to resist any perceived attempts at control, often bing defensive in the process.


    As they arrived in the hotel lobby, Zhang Wei approached the reception desk, while the two women waited slightly behind him.


    "Do you have a three-person room?" he inquired.


    The receptionist smiled apologetically. "Sir, we only offer double bed rooms. If you want to amodate three people, you can either book the presidential suite or book two separate rooms."


    Without hesitation, Zhang Wei handed over his card and said, "Book the presidential suite."


    The possibility of booking two separate rooms didn''t even cross his mind.


    Although he hadn''t decided what to do with Chen Yn yet and was actively trying to avoid thinking with his lower body, the idea of making someone wear a "green hat" did amuse him.


    Zhang Wei had once shared a close rtionship with Chen Dong, Chen Yn''s brother. However, after gaining cultivation powers, he seemed to disregard those past connections entirely.


    He nced back at Chen Yn, who stood there calmly, and a mischievous idea flitted through his mind. Perhaps he should let Chen Yn''s boyfriend experience the feeling of being cheated on.


    After all, it was Liu Ming who had left his girlfriend behind.


    However, despite his yful thoughts, Zhang Wei had no immediate intention of making any aggressive moves. He needed to know more about this Liu Ming first. He couldn''t afford to act impulsively without understanding the situation.


    No woman was worth risking his life, and he was determined to protect himself above all else.


    The receptionist couldn''t help but cheer inwardly as the transaction for the presidential suite was sessful.


    She looked at Zhang Wei with a concealed smile, thinking, ''The life of the rich is truly different.'' Her envy grew as she cast an envious nce at Wu Xue and Chen Yn.


    The cost of the room alone was more than enough to cover her entire month''s sry. While Zhang Wei was paying, she seized the opportunity to discreetly slip her phone number into his hand.


    However, Zhang Wei showed no interest and discarded it, as his focus was elsewhere.


    Chen Yn looked at Zhang Wei with a perplexed expression as they rode the elevator upward. "Cousin, did you hit the jackpot and be rich?" she asked, yfully gesturing towards the shinning watch on his wrist.


    Zhang Wei nodded casually. "I do have a lot of money. Do you need some?" he inquired, partly to gauge her reaction. Chen Yn politely declined, saying, "No need. What would I do with so much money? As long as I have enough to live honestly, it''s all good!"


    Wu Xue felt aplicated mix of emotions as she heard Chen Yn''s response.


    Although she had never been drawn to Zhang Wei for his wealth, she couldn''t quite grasp Chen Yn''s psychology at all.


    Zhang Wei nodded and fell into a thoughtful silence.


    He had realized that money wasn''t the way to sway Chen Yn''s perspective.


    Perhaps it could have worked if he hade a few years earlier when Chen Dong''s business was just starting, and she wasn''t involved with Liu Ming.


    Zhang Wei had simply asked her at the wrong time.


    As the butler sensibly retreated after showing them to their room, Chen Yn was left stunned by the sheer size of the presidential suite.


    She couldn''t help but wonder why Zhang Wei had spent so extravagantly.


    Regardless of the extravagance, the suite featured two rooms with bathrooms, and Chen Yn had enough reamaining clothes for all three of them.


    Since there were only two rooms with private bathrooms, Zhang Wei and Chen Yn decided to go first, leaving Wu Xue in the living area.


    Wu Xue had initially wanted to share a room with Zhang Wei during her turn, but when she saw that the bathrooms had transparent shower areas, she blushed and decided to wait outside for her turn, maintaining her modesty.


    After Zhang Wei had finished his shower, Wu Xue went inside, and he took her spot in the living room.


    She let out a relieved sigh, noting that he wasn''t urging them to take a shower together.


    But then, she chastised herself for her dirty thoughts.


    Why was her mind going in such a direction?


    Compared to Zhang Wei, Chen Yn was taking significantly more time inside. Bored, Zhang Wei decided to pick up Chen Yn''s phone and try to unlock it. To his disappointment, it was locked.


    However, when he nced at the lock screen wallpaper, featuring a picture of Chen Yn, his lips twitched in amusement.


    He wondered just how much editing had gone into creating an image like this. It seemed almost too perfect to be true.


    It wasn''t that Zhang Wei thought Chen Yn wasn''t attractive. She was certainly on par with Wu Xue in terms of looks.


    But the girl in the wallpaper had an aura of innocence that rivaled Feng Xinyue, making her appear in a league of her own.
