Chapter 33 The Inferiority Complex of an Ordinary Person

In the private room, Chen Tao had already arranged for six tall and scantily clad beauties to be waiting.

“Not bad, Young Master Chen, all beauties,” Shen Junjie said with a lecherous grin upon seeing the women.

“Haha.”

Chen Tao clapped him on the shoulder. “How could I not make preparations when inviting Young Master Shen to have fun?”

“Heh heh, you’re thoughtful.”

Shen Junjie habitually sniffed, a wicked smile on his face. He went up, embracing women on both sides, and started playing with them.

“Young Master Fang, I’ll toast you first.”

Chen Tao raised his glass of Western liquor and said with a smile to Fang Kangning, who was wearing a white suit and looked handsome, “Thank you for gracing us with your presence for this gathering.”

“You’re too kind.” Fang Kangning was very proud. Unlike Shen Junjie, he didn’t immediately come across as a spoiled brat.

Instead, he adopted a lofty demeanor, exuding an air of sophistication that made people think he had substance.

“Young Master Fang, let’s have a drink together.”

A fiery beauty sat down, provocatively looping her arm around Fang Kangning’s. He immediately frowned and pushed her away. The other women looked nervous. Chen Tao and Huang Dawei, confused, asked, “Young Master Fang, are they not suitable?”

“Haha, don’t be nervous, Young Master Chen. Young Master Fang is just like this; he doesn’t take a liking to ordinary women,” Shen Junjie said, laughing as he held a beauty in his arms and gestured towards Fang Kangning.

“So that’s how it is.”

Chen Tao smiled and nodded to Huang Dawei, who immediately took out his phone to make a call.

A moment later, in the adjacent private room, a woman dressed in a black lace qipao came out. She directly pushed open the door and said with a smile, “Manager Chen.”

“Zhang Li is here.”

Looking at this hot and charming woman, it was Zhang Li, whom Chen Tao had arranged for Wan Yunting years ago.

“Come here quickly, this is Young Master Fang.”

Chen Tao went up and pulled Zhang Li over. However, the moment Fang Kangning saw her, his eyes went wide.

“Hello, Young Master Fang.”

Zhang Li smiled charmingly, exuding allure. Coupled with her sexy black lace qipao, even Shen Junjie couldn’t sit still. The women in his arms suddenly lost their appeal. “I say, Young Master Chen, this is not fair. You’re keeping the best beauty for Young Master Fang.”

“Haha, Zhang Li, take good care of Young Master Fang for me.”

Chen Tao nudged Zhang Li, and she immediately sat on Fang Kangning’s lap. Her hand immediately hooked around his neck, and Zhang Li said with a charming smile, “Young Master Fang, shall we have a drink?”

“Sure.”

This time, Fang Kangning was pleased, revealing his perverse desires.

He preferred mature women like Zhang Li.

Seeing Fang Kangning and Zhang Li having such a good time, Chen Tao and Huang Dawei exchanged smiles.

This was because he had learned from Shen Junjie what kind of women Fang Kangning liked, which was why he had brought out his trump card, Zhang Li.

Huang Dawei’s phone rang. It was his wife. After apologizing to Chen Tao, he turned and went out to the club’s outdoor balcony to take the call.

“Huang Dawei is out.”

Jin Xiuwen, sitting in a corner, got excited. Wan Yunting got up and asked him to look after Su Ke’er first, then followed Huang Dawei to the outdoor balcony.

“Okay, wife, I’ll be back after I’m done. That’s all for now…”

After finishing the call, Huang Dawei turned to go back, but a figure blocked his way. Upon seeing it was Wan Yunting, his face filled with surprise. “Wan, Wan Yunting!”

Wan Yunting smiled and said, “You still remember me, Dawei!”

Huang Dawei had heard from Chen Tao that Wan Yunting had been released from prison and was surprised that he had come to find him so suddenly. This made his expression a little unnatural. “Yunting, I also heard you were out and was planning to see you. I didn’t expect you to be here. It’s a coincidence. Let’s go for a drink…”

Wan Yunting waved his hand, not wanting to exchange pleasantries with Huang Dawei. His eyes fixed on him, as if he were scrutinizing his past crimes.

Feeling guilty, Huang Dawei thought for a moment, realizing that seven years had passed.

Now, working with Chen Tao, he was doing very well, becoming the vice president of Chen’s Group. In front of outsiders, everyone had to call him Manager Huang, which had already made Huang Dawei’s ego swell.

“I just want to know why you did that back then?” Wan Yunting asked after a moment.

Back in college, he and Jin Xiuwen were his best brothers.

But Wan Yunting never expected that Huang Dawei would drug him behind his back and frame him for prison with Chen Tao.

“Heh heh.”

Huang Dawei sneered, looking at Wan Yunting disdainfully. “It seems that seven years in prison has addled your brain, making you ask such a foolish question!”

Wan Yunting’s eyes narrowed. Huang Dawei glared and said, “Wan Yunting, do you know that I was jealous of you in college?”

“Jealous?”

“Yes, jealous.”

Huang Dawei sneered self-mockingly. “Because you were the third young master of Wan Shi Group, a second-generation rich kid. Although Jin Xiuwen’s family wasn’t as well-off as yours, it was still better than mine, a person who came from the countryside. So, I was jealous of you and Xiuwen.”

Wan Yunting raised his eyebrows. They had played well together back then, but he never knew that Huang Dawei harbored such inferiority.

“Since I was young, I was instilled with the idea of failure. My parents told me not to cause trouble outside, not to spend money recklessly, and to study and be a good person honestly. But what good did that do?”

Huang Dawei, his face suddenly contorted, shouted at Wan Yunting, “Compared to second-generation rich kids like you who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths, even if I worked hard my whole life, I could never catch up to your starting point!”

Seeing Huang Dawei’s resentment and anger towards his fate, Wan Yunting calmly said, “So, is that your reason?”

“Yes!”

Huang Dawei glared at Wan Yunting, his expression inflated. “Because Chen Tao can give me all of this. He not only satisfies me financially but also compensates for my lifelong inferiority complex.”

“Now, everyone calls me Manager Huang when I go out. Every year when I return to my hometown, I can proudly say that I, Huang Dawei, have made a name for myself in Huadu. My parents can also proudly tell our relatives that I have succeeded. This is the choice of me, Huang Dawei!”

“But you, Wan Yunting, although you call me your brother, you looked down on people like us from humble backgrounds in your heart.”

“So, what you can’t give me, Chen Tao can!”

“I understand.”

Wan Yunting sighed in his heart. What he thought was not necessarily what the other person thought.

Different paths, different ways.

It seemed impossible to break through with Huang Dawei.

“Ah…”

Suddenly, a woman’s scream came from the restroom corridor. Wan Yunting’s head snapped around. It was Su Ke’er’s voice.

“What are you doing, let me go…”

In the restroom hallway, Su Ke’er had just come out after using the restroom when she was grabbed by the arm by a young man reeking of alcohol. She was terrified and flustered, struggling and screaming.

“Beauty, come have a drink with me…”

The person forcibly dragging Su Ke’er was Shen Junjie.

As soon as this guy came out of the restroom, he saw the pure and cute Su Ke’er. Stimulated by the alcohol, he had a wicked idea.

Shen Junjie immediately hugged Su Ke’er and smirked, “If you follow me, you can have any handbag you want. Come, let me kiss you…”

“No…”

Su Ke’er’s face turned pale with fear, and she cried out in panic, “Brother Yunting…”

At that moment, Wan Yunting rushed over. Without a word, he grabbed Shen Junjie by the back of his collar and flung him backward like a chicken. With a thud, he fell onto the corridor.

On the smooth tiled floor, he slid several meters, almost knocking over Huang Dawei, who was coming over. Seeing that it was Shen Junjie, he exclaimed, “Young Master Shen…”

Wan Yunting glanced coldly at the person being helped up by Huang Dawei, then turned to the tense Su Ke’er. “Ke’er, are you alright?”

Su Ke’er looked flustered, clutching Wan Yunting’s arm tightly with her small hand. Pointing at Shen Junjie, she nervously said, “He forcefully tried to drag me to drink, and when I refused, he bullied me and tried to kiss me…”

At this moment, Jin Xiuwen also arrived. Simultaneously, Niu Qiuling and Zhang Ke, seeing the situation, immediately whispered into their earpieces, “Captain Wu, there’s an emergency…”

At this moment, Chen Tao, Fang Kangning, and Zhang Li also came out.

Huang Dawei supported Shen Junjie and pointed at Wan Yunting. “Manager Chen, it’s Wan Yunting. He hit Young Master Shen.”
