Chapter 407: 407: Pleasant Cooperation in Bed
“Hello, good morning. This is the Sunshine Institute; you wanted to see Director Yu just now, didn’t you?”
A glimmer of light flashed across Li Beiting’s dim eyes: “She’s here?”
“That’s right, we’ve reported to her and she said she can see you, but we still have to follow the procedures here. Could you please cooperate?”
“What procedures?” Li Beiting frowned.
“Just a few simple questions, do you engage in sexual activity on a regular basis?”
“Put her on the phone!” Li Beiting snapped, raising his voice.
What kind of nonsense is this!
“You… Do you know what sexual activity is?” The person on the other end seemed to be holding back laughter.
“Get Yu Weiwei on the phone!” Li Beiting was truly angry now.
“Sir, please don’t be angry. Are you perhaps not very clear on what differentiates a man from a woman?”
“Get Yu Weiwei over here to talk to me!”
Li Beiting, now furious, was sweating all over.
What does it mean that he can’t tell men from women?
“No worries, we can educate you. You see, sexual activity is one of the very important activities for humans. Harmonious sexual experiences are helpful for both physical and mental health—what’s commonly known as delightful cooperation in bed.”
“Is this how Yu Weiwei teaches you all?! Does she have a delightful cooperation in bed with men?!”
Li Beiting’s voice was low and icy cold, which seemed to cool down even the oppressively hot air around.
Err… There was a pause at the other end—this wasn’t a typical response, and whoever it was seemed capable of arguing back. Maybe… not beyond help?
“Get Yu Weiwei to come over here and take the phone,” Li Beiting shouted again.
It had been three years since they split. During these three years, he had hardly heard her voice again.
“I’m sorry, but Director Yu just stepped out.”
The two women at the institute hung up the phone quickly, patting their chests in relief; that was terrifying.
Having been hung up on, Li Beiting grew even more irate. Already restless, he began to unbutton his shirt collar, feeling an urge to storm into the institute.
The two young women at the institute looked at each other, scared.
“That scared the hell out of me. Director Yu didn’t say that this madman could get so scary when he’s angry.”
“Xiao Sister, I somehow feel he’s not that foolish.”
“Don’t know, don’t know, let’s get back to work and try not to provoke this man in the future.”
“By the way, could this man have had an affair with our Director Yu?”
“Now that you mention it, I think that might actually be a possibility.”
“Ah, my goodness, that’s not a madman, that’s an ex-boyfriend!”
“…” The young girl held her forehead, thinking… there might be some truth to that.
Did they just stir up trouble?
The two of them chattered randomly while the institute was still quite busy with people coming in to make inquiries.
Whenever there was downtime, the two women would chat.
The topics among women often jump without bounds, and soon they had moved from men to airports and duty-free shops.
“Could you tell me which office Yu Weiwei is in?”
Xu Chaomu got out of the car and walked a few steps to reach the Sunshine Institute, an easy place to find, not too secluded.
Yet the institute was far from the luxurious Xinxiu Tianxia villa area—it took a long taxi ride to get there.
“Do you have an appointment?”
Upon seeing Xu Chaomu approach, the receptionist greeted her with a smile.
“No.”
“Then you’ll need to schedule an appointment in advance. Here’s a form for you to fill out,” said the receptionist to Xu Chaomu.
What the hell? She needs an appointment to see Yu Weiwei?
Her phone had been taken away by Shen Chi, so she couldn’t call Yu Weiwei.
“By the way, do you happen to know Yu Weiwei’s mobile number?” Xu Chaomu asked.
She had no intention of filling out any damn form!
“We’re not at liberty to disclose that information.”
“…” Xu Chaomu’s face fell.
She casually picked up a form, which was filled with numerous questions.
“How soon can I see Yu Weiwei if I book an appointment?” Xu Chaomu asked.
“There are a few hundred people ahead of you. After booking, you can see her in two weeks.”
Two weeks!
Xu Chaomu truly hadn’t anticipated that Yu Weiwei’s business was booming. Perhaps more men were having problems these days?
In that case, Yu Weiwei must be quite the wealthy little tycoon by now, right?
The hell she needs Li Beiting for then.
Xu Chaomu had no intention of booking an appointment like some kind of schmuck when she had such a resource at her disposal for free.
So, she borrowed the reception’s phone to call Shen Chi. She remembered his number quite well.
Normally, Shen Chi wouldn’t answer such chaotic calls.
And this time was no different.
So, Xu Chaomu called again, but still no answer.
Three times, four times, five times!
Finally, Shen Chi picked up the phone with impatience.
“Why did you take so long to answer the phone?” Xu Chaomu grumbled.
“Hmm? Chaomu? What number is this?”
“Do me a favor and find Yu Weiwei’s mobile number for me.”
Shen Chi chuckled on the other end. She rarely asked him for favors.
“What’s in it for me?”
“Nothing, you figure it out.”
“Hmm, not interested without a perk. Here are your options,” he proposed.
“Hmm?” Xu Chaomu snorted coldly. This man always complicates things. It’s just asking for a number, for heaven’s sake! Such a mercenary.
“First option, let me sleep with you tonight and I’ll get you the number in a minute; second option, kiss me through the phone and I’ll get it for you in three minutes; third option, call me ‘hubby’ and it’s yours in three minutes. Otherwise, we’ve got nothing to talk about.”
“Damn it!”
“Mind the baby.”
“Shit!”
“…” Shen Chi’s lips twitched on the other end of the phone.
“Shen Chi, can’t you be serious for once? Speak properly, I’m pretending I didn’t hear anything.”
“Pick one, otherwise, we’ve got nothing to talk about.”
“Shen Chi, you’re sleeping on the floor tonight! The floor!” Xu Chaomu exploded.
“So you don’t need the number then? I’ll hang up if you’re not interested,” said Shen Chi, sounding very provocative.
In reality, Shen Chi, ready for a meeting, had put it on hold to take Xu Chaomu’s call.
“Don’t, don’t… are there any other options aside from those three?” Xu Chaomu asked irritably.
She’d come all this way to the institute and didn’t want to return empty-handed.
“No,” said Shen Chi in a teasing tone.
Xiao Mo was searching for Shen Chi and found him not far from the meeting room, leaning against the wall.
The usually stern and cold man from the corporation was now smiling.
“…” Xiao Mo held his forehead, knowing full well who Shen Chi was speaking to.
In this whole world, the only person who could make Shen Chi smile like that was Xu Chaomu.
So, he silently retreated back to the meeting room and postponed the meeting.
“Shen Chi, fine, you win,” Xu Chaomu thought. A wise man does not fight when the odds are against him.
“Hmm? Which one do you choose?” Shen Chi deliberately deepened his voice.
Truthfully, it didn’t matter which she chose. He wouldn’t lose out. This was a lucrative deal.
Sleep with him? Kiss him? Call him ‘hubby’?
