The aloof beauty always has weak legs; the crazy boss is too ruthless.

Chapter 150 Mercury Retrograde

Lin Chen's initial anger was extinguished by Lu Siqi's request. "Can you not be so unpleasant? I'm Lin Chen, do you think I'd be short of your tens of thousands of yuan?"

"I don't care if you're Lin Chen or Mu Chen, I only care about money." Lu Siqi pushed him away, walked to the bedside table, picked up her phone, and opened her WeChat payment QR code: "You can scan the code to pay directly."

Still using QR code payment?
Lin Chen's gums ached from her actions. "Who taught you this? Using QR codes for payments? Don't you know there are limits on QR code payments?"

"..." It turns out there was a limit.

Seeing her bewildered and embarrassed expression, Lin Chen impatiently picked up his phone and opened the mobile banking app again. With his excellent memory, he memorized the woman's bank card number after only one try.

He entered his account number, filled in the amount of 10, clicked transfer, and then held up his phone in front of the woman: "Look carefully! I, Lin Chen, never renege on my debts!"

"You've reached your limit." Lu Siqi looked at him expressionlessly, a slight hint of contempt clearly showing in her eyes.

"Limit?" Never before had Lin Chen encountered such a sudden situation. He turned his phone screen in disbelief and saw that he had exceeded the daily transfer limit of 20 yuan. "Damn it!"

Unconvinced, I opened another bank's mobile app. As soon as I entered my account number, the screen suddenly went black.

It shut down due to low battery!
"Damn it!" Lin Chen cursed wildly, feeling as if tens of thousands of wild horses were galloping through his mind, completely unable to calm down his feelings of "even drinking water is a problem."

He thought to himself: Only by kissing the woman in front of him could he soothe his agitated emotions.

"Stop talking nonsense, let me kiss you first!" Lin Chen grabbed the back of her head with his large hand and lowered his head to kiss her lips.

Lu Siqi quickly raised her hand and pressed it against his mouth, "Charge first, then transfer the money after you turn it on."

"I fucking..." No, I can't keep swearing like this. I have to be a gentleman, I absolutely have to be a gentleman!
Sheng Huai'an is currently in the North City. If I keep using such foul language, I'm essentially giving that big grudge Sheng Huai'an an opportunity.

Women are all like that; they always compare different men.

Sheng Huai'an, that big jerk, is a well-known gentleman in Hong Kong. Lin Chen thought to himself that he had to control his temper and not be so savage.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Chen calmed himself down, picked up his phone, and walked to the bedside. Only when he was about to charge it did he realize that he hadn't brought a charger!

He had been staying at the Sheng Tang Club for the past few days, leaving behind necessities such as charging cables. Bringing Lu Siqi to a hotel tonight was just a spur-of-the-moment decision; he hadn't made any adequate preparations.

“There are power banks in the hotel lobby.” Lu Siqi said, but then reminded him, “But your phone is off, so you can’t scan the QR code to get a power bank.”

"Heh." For the first time in his life, Lin Chen felt an unprecedented sense of helplessness, but his damn competitive spirit prevented him from giving up so easily. "Lu Siqi, you just wait. If I don't kiss you until your legs are weak tonight, I, Lin Chen, will change my surname to yours!"

……

Lin Chen slammed the door and left, still holding his black-screened phone. He swiped his VIP card to open the elevator, went inside, and pressed the button for the first-floor lobby.

The elevator doors opened, and the lobby manager outside recognized the expensive watch on his wrist. Although he didn't know his identity or background, he quickly ran over to him, "Sir, what do you need?"

"A power bank." Lin Chen looked around but didn't see any power banks. "My phone needs to be charged to turn on."

"You can just call room service for this kind of small thing. Our staff will bring it up. You don't need to come down yourself." Of course, he knew he didn't need to come down himself. He was afraid that while waiting for the power bank, he would lose his temper and get annoyed by that woman, Lu Siqi.

"Go charge my phone first." Handing the phone to the lobby manager, Lin Chen unbuttoned his collar, feeling a tightness in his chest. "And get me a bottle of ice-cold mineral water!"

If he doesn't calm down soon, he really doesn't know what kind of beastly things he'll do to Lu Siqi once he gets up there.

The lobby manager noticed he was angry and carefully took his phone to the front desk, asking the staff to quickly find a compatible charging cable.

While waiting for the water to charge, Lin Chen sat on the sofa, drinking refreshingly cold mineral water and gazing at the bustling street scene outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. His anger gradually subsided.

About 15 minutes later, the lobby manager came over with a charging cable and a phone, saying, "Your phone has been charged a little. Here's the charging cable for you. Please use it first. It won't affect your use if the power bank runs out of power."

"Thanks, bro." After screwing on the bottle cap, Lin Chen stood up and took the phone and charging cable. Before leaving, he patted the lobby manager on the shoulder: "I'll introduce you to Yan Song, the president of Sheng Tang, later. It's a bit of a waste for you to stay in this hotel."

Upon hearing that it was President Yan of Sheng Tang Club, the lobby manager was extremely excited and swiped his card to open the elevator for him, bowing repeatedly to express his gratitude: "Thank you, sir."

"You're welcome, it's what you should do."

As the elevator doors closed, Lin Chen licked his back teeth with his tongue. As the elevator ascended and approached the VIP penthouse suite, his extinguished desire reignited.

But sometimes, this person's luck is so bad that they can trip and fall even when walking on flat ground! They can even choke to death while drinking water!

As he exited the elevator, he lost his grip, and his phone fell to the ground...

Seeing the shattered phone screen, Lin Chen could no longer utter a curse, because he was too helpless to muster any more energy to get angry.

Especially when bending down to pick up the phone, my finger was cut by the broken screen.

Holding his thumb in his mouth, tasting his own blood, Lin Chen exhaled and walked to the guest room door without any resentment. He swiped his card to enter, closed the door, and silently tossed his phone and charging cable onto the carpet.

Seeing that his phone screen was cracked, Lu Siqi walked over and took another careful look before turning to him and asking, "Can I still transfer money?"

"..." This time, Lin Chen wasn't angry; he just laughed helplessly at her words.

"why are you laughing?"

"Guess." Leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, Lin Chen lit a cigarette and took a puff. "If you guess right, I'll let you go, and you don't have to pay me a single penny."

Lu Siqi replied without even thinking, "I can't guess."

"If you could guess, would I be stupid enough to give you this question?" Walking up to her, Lin Chen cupped her oval face in his hands, admiring her naturally charming eyes. All his previous anger seemed to have vanished. "Actually, I just thought about it seriously. Anyway, I'm having a really bad night, so even if someone brings me a new phone, I might not be able to transfer the money to you successfully."

"Since God doesn't want me to kiss you tonight, then I won't."

She took a step back and said, "You go to sleep first, I'm going to take a shower."
