How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

When Li Changrui had shown her the video before, she had short hair and was dressed in a tight outfit that exuded a full sensuous and tempting aura...

But the Kim Jisoo standing before him had long wavy hair and had changed into a pure dress...

The previous image was like a succubus that ignited people's desires...

Whereas now it was a style both pure and alluring...

That said, this damn tycoon really did have good taste...

"Hello, my name is Kim Jisoo."

Feeling a bit uncomfortable being scrutinized by Gu Heng like this, Kim Jisoo hesitated for a while before her thin lips slightly parted, delicately uttering a sentence in barely familiar Mandarin...

Gu Heng's eyes brightened when he heard the standard foreigner's version of Mandarin, "You speak Chinese?"

Before, he had thought that since Kim Jisoo was a Korean girl, communicating with her might be inconvenient...

But even if it were inconvenient, he couldn't really hire a translator to follow him around all the time... You couldn't have the interpreter at your bedside while you're exercising, saying "I can't do it, I'm about to come, ah, I've come."

Just thinking about this scenario made Gu Heng feel strange...

Kim Jisoo nodded her little head, "I can understand some everyday conversation because the company offers Chinese lessons. I've been learning for three years."

"It seems your company is quite strategic to let the artists learn Chinese."

Gu Heng teased with a playful smile.

Prior to visiting, Gu Heng had searched for this Kim Jisoo on Baidu: former leader of the ALICE girl group, barely considered a second-tier celebrity in Korea. Even in Hua Country, her trending topics had several million views.

If it weren't for the ban on Korean entertainers, perhaps Kim Jisoo could have become quite popular in Hua Country for a while...

But unfortunately, since the ban on Korean entertainers in 2016, aside from those top Korean stars who were still active, many small Korean artists had no way to enter the Hua Country market...

But either way...

This ban on Korean entertainers was ultimately a good thing...

If it weren't for the ban, Kim Jisoo could have made quite a bit of money just from appearances in Hua Country. How could she possibly come to be a companion?

Thinking this, Gu Heng didn't dawdle and turned to Li Changrui to ask, "How do I pay?"

"For the companion's fee, you can pay directly to the agent accompanying Miss Kim Jisoo. Our association only provides services to our members and doesn't take a cut from it. However, if you find it troublesome, our association can make the payment on your behalf, and you can settle with us when you leave."

Hearing Li Changrui's explanation, Gu Heng reluctantly understood.

With more than 10,000 members, a membership fee of 120,000, the annual fees could bring in more than a billion. They really didn't need to earn this little money.

"Alright, you make the payment for me, and I'll settle with you later when I pay."

"Understood."

Upon receiving Gu Heng's instructions, Li Changrui spoke rapidly in English with the middle-aged woman. Then, the woman, smiling, left the reception room with Li Changrui...

Presumably, they were off to collect the money...

Only Gu Heng and Kim Jisoo were left in the room...

"You'll be following me for the next three days, Miss Jin."

Since she was there, Kim Jisoo was fairly easy-going and not fussy, obediently nodding her head...

There's a saying, isn't there.

If you can't resist, then you may as well enjoy it...

Further, considering how desirable Gu Heng was, if one were to overlook the transactional nature of their relationship, being with him was in itself a pleasure...

Nodding, Gu Heng turned and walked towards the door, "Let's have a meal here first, and then we'll go out for some fun tonight."

Seeing Gu Heng leave, Kim Jisoo quickly followed him and asked quietly next to him in her halting Mandarin, "How should I address you?"

"No one told you my name when you came?"

Kim Jisoo shook her head, puzzled.

"Then just call me Gu Heng."

"Can I call you Gu Heng oppa?"

Gu Heng: "???"

Kim Jisoo's "oppa" nearly melted his heart...

This was his first time interacting with a foreign girl. Although Koreans and Chinese didn't look much different, the thrill was by no means less...

Seeing Gu Heng's reaction, Kim Jisoo could tell he liked the nickname; she became very familiar and hooked her arms around his shoulder, the softness beneath her dress rubbing against his arm and tickling him straight to the core...

Lowering his head to look at her shimmering smile...

Gu Heng was almost set off...

This woman must have been born with a succubus's divine body, right?

Fortunately, he had released some desire earlier during the spa, allowing Gu Heng to keep his composure...

Otherwise, with the temptation she was brewing, Gu Heng might have just taken her back to his room to get down to business...

...

A dozen minutes later.

Under Li Changrui's guidance, Gu Heng arrived at the private room of the Yundian Association.

As for Kim Jisoo and Haibin along with a few others, they went to another private room...

Gu Heng had originally planned to introduce Haibin, Song Hua, and Lu Yuan to each other, but after strenuous objections from Haibin and Song Hua, he decided to drop the idea...

The reasoning behind Haibin and Song Hua was simple.

Eating with billionaires like Lu Yuan, Fu Songyang, and Liu Wan, who were listed on the Hurun Rich List, was too much for them to handle.

After all, they were not like Gu Heng, who had the system as a safety net.

One second a factory worker screwing bolts, the next at a billionaire's banquet, they'd probably stutter their words. Gu Heng listened and thought it made sense, so he didn't press the issue.

He pushed open the door, and the three had changed into the same casual shorts and T-shirts as Gu Heng, seated at a large dining table.

Seeing Gu Heng come in, Lu Yuan quickly said, "Take a seat, we were just talking about you."
