The pinnacle of power: starting with having sex with a female leader-Chapter 369 - 0: Where Did You Get So Much Money?
Shen Manwen was receiving a subordinate when she heard Cheng Yuan’s words; her heart warmed, and she nearly lost her cool and commanding demeanor.
"I’m busy; Xiao Liu is already handling that."
Cheng Yuan instantly realized that it might not be convenient for Shen Manwen to talk, so he suppressed his excitement and said, "Sis, how about we go on a date tonight?"
Shen Manwen’s heart raced, but her expression remained icy.
"Okay, I understand, let’s do as you planned."
After speaking, Shen Manwen hung up the phone immediately and turned her head towards the leader who was reporting to her.
"Secretary Zhang, where did you leave off?"
"Reporting to the County Chief, I was just..."
...
To avoid delaying his date with Shen Manwen, Cheng Yuan didn’t go to inspect the construction site but instead killed time in his office.
Normally, time flies when you’re killing time.
But today, for some reason,
Cheng Yuan felt time was moving slowly.
An afternoon felt like several years.
Cheng Yuan looked at his watch more than ten times, finally welcoming the end of the workday!
Cheng Yuan could hardly wait as he dashed out of his office, got into his car, and parked below Shen Manwen’s building at Mingmen Mansion.
Soon, Shen Manwen’s second car pulled up.
Shen Manwen got out, sent the driver away, and came up to Cheng Yuan’s Passat, gently tapping on the window.
Cheng Yuan rolled down the window, and gently said, "Sis, get in."
Shen Manwen gave Cheng Yuan an annoyed look.
"Get in what car? You really want to go on a date? Ji County is so small, if someone were to snap a picture of us dating, who knows what that would turn into. There’s no one at home, hurry up to the apartment!"
Cheng Yuan’s heart warmed, of course he wanted to go upstairs now, to conquer the stunningly seductive Sister County Chief.
But for such a sacred moment, Cheng Yuan felt it should have some sense of ceremony!
"Sis, don’t all you women like a sense of ceremony?"
"I owe you a process of pursuit, a perfect date!"
"I don’t want you to have any regrets!"
"Ji County indeed has many familiar faces; we could go to Yang County or Ping County though!"
Shen Manwen was somewhat moved, indeed, her acquaintance with Cheng Yuan started with a conspiracy.
Their interaction later on just naturally progressed during work.
She actually had never really been on a formal date with Cheng Yuan.
If in the future, she were to get together with Cheng Yuan, looking back, would there be any regrets?
The answer was definitely yes.
Shen Manwen opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
Cheng Yuan quickly took out a pair of sunglasses and handed them to Shen Manwen.
Shen Manwen gave Cheng Yuan another annoyed look, but this little rascal was quite thorough, the "crime tools" were well prepared!
Wearing the sunglasses, she felt much safer.
Cheng Yuan drove straight to Yang County.
Half an hour later, the two arrived in Yang County smoothly.
Cheng Yuan parked the car at Jiajiayuan’s parking lot, took Shen Manwen’s hand, and strolled through the bustling food street at night.
The food street in Yang County was particularly vibrant, many young couples were dining here.
Even some couples were kissing in public.
The atmosphere was excellent!
Under such an atmosphere, Shen Manwen gradually let herself loose, clutching Cheng Yuan’s arm tightly.
Still, she refused to take off her sunglasses.
In case someone took their photos, the sunglasses would serve as a mask of modesty.
After wandering around, Shen Manwen exclaimed, "So many snacks? I’ve never seen many of these before."
"Then let’s try some."
"Okay."
Cheng Yuan ordered more than ten different snacks, and Shen Manwen tasted a little of each, revealing a face full of satisfaction.
"Cheng Yuan, the taste of these snacks is really good! They’re better than I imagined! Comparable to those upscale hotels."
Cheng Yuan grinned, "Of course, or why would there be so many people here?"
After eating their fill, Cheng Yuan took Shen Manwen shopping at Jiajiayuan.
The focus was on luxury.
He bought Shen Manwen over a dozen sets of designer clothes, and several watches and bags as well.
In just one hour, Cheng Yuan spent over 500,000 yuan!
Shen Manwen couldn’t help but frown, knowing Cheng Yuan’s financial capacity well. Where did he get so much money?
Shen Manwen pulled Cheng Yuan aside, her face serious, and asked, "Cheng Yuan, where did you get so much money? You didn’t dip into the Weidong River project funds, did you?"
Cheng Yuan laughed, "Sis, do you really think so lowly of me? Haven’t I reported every transaction in the Weidong River project to you? Don’t you trust me?"
"Then where did all this money come from?"
"Made it from stock trading! I have a bit of a knack for it; I’m now financially independent."
Financially independent?
Shen Manwen looked at Cheng Yuan incredulously, "Keep dreaming! The A-share market is down, every stock investor is losing money, and you’re financially independent?"
Cheng Yuan grinned, showing Shen Manwen his Offshore Securities Company account backend.
Shen Manwen carefully counted the numbers, her mouth agape in shock!
"Cheng Yuan, did you really earn so much from stock trading? How did you do it?"
"Maybe it’s just good luck! I bet on a few unicorn stocks and made thousands of times my investment."
Shen Manwen: "..."
"I’ll take you to the provincial Disciplinary Committee one day, to report your financial status, to prevent opponents from using your vast wealth against you."
Cheng Yuan nodded.
"I’ll listen to everything Sis says." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
After a pause, Cheng Yuan looked mischievously at Shen Manwen.
"Sis, we’ve had dinner, and shopped too, should we head back to the hotel to rest now?"
