My Virtual Girlfriend-Chapter 343 Actually, I Am Not a Jerk. Really.

Actually, Meng Xue talking about this topic was not for the first time.

Last time, in the bar, Meng Xue, under the influence of alcohol, asked Chen Yan if he minded having another girlfriend.

At that time, Chen Yan brushed it off with the excuse that his heart was willing, but his strength was not.

However, that was a state of drunkenness.

Who knows if she was just joking.

But... this time, she was completely sober.

This meant that she was serious, and she had a do-or-die courage: after all, if she got rejected this time, there was no "drunkenness" or "joke" excuse to fall back on.

However, Chen Yan dared not agree!

It wasn’t because he was a good man, or because he felt guilty towards Yu Qiao Qiao and Lu Man, but because Meng Xue’s intentions were not pure!

You see, after Chen Yan brought Meng Xue into the office, he turned on the "inner headphones," not only to verify the truth about last night’s incident, but also to fully hear Meng Xue’s ulterior motives!

"Chen Yan already has two girlfriends and has some ambiguous relationships with a few other girls. He’s not loyal in relationships."

"I’m very beautiful and have a great figure, and I’m also so proactive. Even if he didn’t initially have this intention, he might waver."

"Moreover, I’m an important business partner for him. The company has just gotten on the right track, and I’m very important to him. He’s smart enough to consider the implications of rejecting me."

"Plus, I’ve seen everything I needed to see yesterday, and touched everything I intended to. And I deliberately created a misunderstanding."

"He probably won’t be able to outright reject me."

"As long as he doesn’t reject me, I can always stay by his side. Then gradually enter his heart."

"Once I have his heart, I can then take care of the other girls."

"By then, the only victor will be me."

"Only I can be the one to end up with Chen Yan!"

It must be said, Meng Xue really was a very rational and logical woman when it came to handling matters.

This was also the first time Chen Yan heard such a clear and logically laid out analysis through his "inner headphones." It seemed targeted, analytical, and planned, almost as though it could really be achieved...

But listen! Listen! Is this even human talk?

To wrap yourself in it, pretend to play small, wait to move up, then clean house!

This is palace scheming!

Not to mention his feelings for Yu Qiao Qiao and Lu Man, just from a material perspective: dating Yu Qiao Qiao and Lu Man could make money, dating you is a loss!

How could I possibly choose you over them!

So, Chen Yan looked at the confident Meng Xue, slowly opened his mouth, and said, "I’m sorry, I’m not a scumbag."

"And you might have misunderstood."

"Both Lu Man and Yu Qiao Qiao are just friends to me."

"And..."

He paused and then said, "I like men."

"So you’d better give up."

"We are just colleagues."

After saying that, Chen Yan turned and walked away without the slightest hint of nostalgia, leaving a scheming Meng Xue standing there dumbfounded.

Meng Xue watched Chen Yan’s retreating figure, looking completely baffled.

’What the hell?’

’Not a scumbag?’

’Just friends with them?’

’Likes men?’

Meng Xue felt... Chen Yan’s ability to lie through his teeth was truly extraordinary.

’If that’s true, I, Meng Xue would do a handstand and swallow a baseball bat whole!’

However, it could not be denied that Chen Yan’s unorthodox method of rejection neatly resolved the earlier predicament, which made Meng Xue angrily stamp her foot, a bit annoyed.

He escaped again!

Not even taking off my panties worked!

Looks like next time I really must strip him completely!

Chen Yan, you wait! You’ll be mine sooner or later!

Having once again rejected Meng Xue and confirming that Meng Xue really hadn’t done anything to him the night before, Chen Yan felt much better.

The only thing that dampened his mood was... he suddenly realized that it was his own office he’d walked out of. Why did he need to show off and go out? Now he had to choose a new one again...

Their cat-and-mouse games were just a spice in the path of entrepreneurship. Back to work, Meng Xue resumed her demeanor as a strong and decisive young female CEO.

Except during breaks, when she would look at Chen Yan with a playful expression, the rest of the time, she wore the ice queen CEO façade.

Time shifted, and three days passed.

Possibly because the financial pressure was indeed very high, Fenghua Group vacated the Fenghua Building very rapidly. In just three days, everyone had moved out.

Dong Hongtu was quite sociable; during the clearance, after asking Chen Yan, he left behind a lot of office furniture and even voluntarily had the cleaning staff clean the entire area.

After handing over the Fenghua Building, only the Twin Towers Hotel was left to complete their transaction.

The day they went to handle the Twin Towers Hotel, Dong Hongtu was occupied and had Young Master Dong accompany them.

As Chen Yan had no experience with company transfers, he took Meng Xue with him.

Possibly because of Dong Hongtu’s instructions over the past few days, or perhaps because Meng Xue was accompanying him, Young Master Dong behaved very well.

After he picked them up from the Fenghua Building, he explained the Twin Towers Hotel situation to Chen Yan on the way.

"Mr. Chen, the Twin Towers Hotel is 12 stories high with 616 guest rooms. It includes standard rooms, executive rooms, suites, and presidential suites. Each room is fully equipped."

"The hotel also has a large banquet hall of over a thousand square meters that can accommodate 600 people for banquets, as well as 10 conference rooms and 8 multipurpose rooms along with a VIP reception room, suitable for various kinds of meetings or banquets."

As Chen Yan listened, he nodded slightly and inquired, "Aside from these profit-generating facilities?"

Young Master Dong stole a glance at Meng Xue walking on Chen Yan’s other side, seeing that she was also attentively listening, he eagerly explained, "Apart from these facilities, the hotel has six restaurants including a Chinese restaurant, a Western restaurant, a Korean restaurant, and a lobby lounge."

"There are also various functional facilities like an indoor swimming pool, a bowling alley, tennis courts, basketball courts, a gym, and a sauna room."

As he spoke, a look of regret appeared on his face, and he added, "This hotel is actually one of the highest quality properties of our group."

After hearing Young Master Dong’s explanation, Chen Yan was quite pleased with the hotel.

Initially, he had regarded it simply as a bonus, but now it seemed... at least the company had its own place for team building and hosting press conferences.

And when Chen Yan wanted a place to relax with Yu Qiao Qiao and Lu Man, they had a place now.

Chen Yan decided, the presidential suite on the top floor would belong to him from then on.

While casually fantasizing about the hotel arrangements, Chen Yan glanced at Young Master Dong and distractedly consoled him, "This hotel is indeed exceptional, but after all, it’s not your core business. Monetizing it can invigorate your entire group, and later on, you can make several times what it’s worth."

After hearing this, Young Master Dong silently nodded.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Meng Xue slightly opened her lips and asked, "What about the staff? Is the hotel staff still stable now?"

Hearing Meng Xue ask a question, Young Master Dong quickly answered earnestly, "Sister Xue, our staff has always been very stable. Several managers have been working at this hotel for nearly 10 years. They are experienced and well-connected. The hotel has been doing so well all these years, all thanks to their hard work."

Chen Yan silently nodded, feeling it was nice that the hotel was stable.

But Meng Xue frowned slightly and inquired, "Having managed the hotel for so many years, won’t they have other thoughts now that the hotel is being sold?"

"What if they want to cause trouble or have other demands? Have you communicated with them in advance?"

Originally, Young Master Dong mentioned the management to reassure Chen Yan and Meng Xue, but hearing Meng Xue speak like this, he stumbled, unable to articulate a response.

Clearly, he had not considered this aspect.

In the end, it was Chen Yan who resolved the awkward situation.

Chen Yan smiled and said to Meng Xue, "No worries. Whoever makes trouble, I’ll fire them. If they all make trouble, then I’ll fire them all. The people can go, but the place remains."

Hearing Chen Yan’s exaggerated statement, Young Master Dong took it as a joke and laughed along, not taking it seriously.

In this way, the three of them chatted while arriving at the Twin Towers Hotel.

Despite Chen Yan having notified them beforehand about today’s handover, everything at the hotel continued as usual; there was no one to greet them, not even someone to show the way.

Young Master Dong sweated considerably and then took out his phone to start making calls.

Meanwhile, Chen Yan and Meng Xue exchanged glances, both discerning a playful look in each other’s eyes.

But after looking, Chen Yan regretted it: Why did I make eye contact with her. Doesn’t this give her the impression there’s a chance!
