The Handsome Man Scheme
How did Zhang Mo manage to do it? The three action teams split up, and he was the most efficient, which shows
how quick-witted and decisive he was. He had strong execution skills; when he heard that the female waitress's incident occurred at the government guesthouse, he
immediately dressed up and checked into the guesthouse. We've introduced Zhang Mo and Li Zhiguo before; both are handsome
men, but they were born in the wrong place. In the rural environment, even the best features will be buried by dust. This
isn't to criticize the countryside, but the labor, environment, and atmosphere here lead people to neglect their appearance, or
perhaps they've become numb to the hardships of life, giving up or ignoring their own image.
Both were tall and handsome; Zhang Mo had a more refined and delicate appearance, while Li Zhiguo was more masculine, one with a
V-shaped face, the other with a square face. The model was good, but unfortunately, there wasn't the opportunity to style him. After being with Ye Nanfei, he only became a little
cleaner and more hygienic. His hair was still long and messy, and his clothes were the usual Zhongshan suits
. He had a simple and honest look, making it hard to associate him with handsomeness or dashingness. But since being with Teng Tao, he had the means
, and the environment required him to dress neatly and stylishly.
This sudden transformation startled everyone around him. Zhang Mo had a side-parted hairstyle, and Li Zhiguo had a buzz cut, trousers, leather
shoes, and a fashionable jacket—they immediately caught everyone's attention. Especially Zhang Mo, with his big eyes and long, fluttering eyelashes
, it was hard for women to remain calm. This time, he had gone to extra lengths to dress up for the guesthouse. Firstly, it was
a form of disguise and makeup; secondly, he had a vague feeling that this might be helpful to his investigation. His experiences over the past two years
had taught him that he was very handsome and attractive to women, a fact that had made him increasingly confident.
He didn't have a specific plan, but the direction was right, and by boldly taking action, the results followed.
The guesthouse staff were mostly women, and young and beautiful in many ways. This raises two questions. First,
were these female staff members in as dangerous a situation as the woman who committed suicide? The answer is no, because this
was, after all, a government guesthouse, and most of the guests were from government agencies—in today's terms,
people of status. So, was it possible for special services to occur? The answer is yes.
We've said many times that men value women's appearance most, while women value men's strength,
including power and wealth. The people staying here, to put it bluntly, are all powerful men,
the kind of men that women are very fond of. They are inherently attractive to these women. In other words, you can't always assume it's just men who are always looking to
take advantage of women; women are also always thinking about which man they can take advantage of.
Many senior staff members at the guesthouse have set examples, with stories circulating among the staff: so-and-so's
life changed dramatically after sleeping with a certain leader; so-and-so simply slept with a leader and got a job, and
even their family members' jobs were arranged.
Inspired by these stories, many staff members at the guesthouse are like wolves hunting their prey, constantly searching
. This is the difference between government guesthouses and other guesthouses, and Xie Fanghua is truly an exceptional case. If leaders
are interested in a female staff member, they certainly won't force themselves on her. They usually offer words of comfort and concern; if that doesn't work, their
secretaries will help them persuade her; and if all else fails, they'll resort to threats and inducements. These three tactics are usually enough to resolve the situation.
The second question is, Zhang Mo has been in Mengjiang for quite some time now. Wouldn't he
be recognized appearing so conspicuously? There's really no need to worry too much about that. In recent years, the Li sisters and Minako have
mostly worked as bodyguards, appearing in public alongside Teng Tao. The three men, on the other hand, mostly stayed in the shadows or did dirty work
. Teng Tao intentionally kept them hidden.
So, how could Zhang Mo, with neither power nor wealth, attract the attention of female waitresses? This is actually a bit obvious,
but it's worth explaining. The ancients have succinctly summarized the necessary conditions for attracting women
: handsome, wealthy, handsome, tall, short, and leisurely. To possess all five is to be a monster, a womanizer—this is a man's
ideal. An ideal is something to be admired from afar, something unattainable. Therefore, possessing one or two of these qualities
is enough to win the favor of ordinary women. And Zhang Mo probably possesses the other four, except for the one with the shortest surname.
What Granny Wang said—"Pan, Lu, Deng, Xiao, Xian"—doesn't include the power and influence we admire in modern society. That's because
in ancient times, power and influence had little to do with ordinary people; illicit affairs wouldn't happen to ordinary families. They had brothels,
could take concubines, buy maids, and courtesans. Zhang Mo was handsome, certainly good-looking, though not quite
Pan An's, but enough to make women in this small town drool. As for "Lu," you only know after using it; it's
something you need to develop a relationship, and Zhang Mo wasn't lacking in that aspect either. As for his scheming, look at how he pursued Yin Lingyi all these years
? Very meticulous. "Xian" refers to the leisure and time spent with women. He came to this guesthouse because he had plenty of time
and free time.
Zhang Mo's purpose in coming to the guesthouse was to meet one or two insiders and try to find out if he could uncover any inside
information or clues. Having a purpose makes implementation easy. Sure enough, upon checking in, a girl kept glancing
at him. They say beautiful women attract attention, but it's also hard for handsome guys to stay out of the spotlight. This first encounter gave him a good idea
of who was easy to approach and who he could develop a relationship with. He was
n't about to let this girl who greeted him slip by.
While being led to his room, he seized the opportunity to build rapport: "Ah, I'm new to Mengjiang, I
don't know the place well. What's fun here? What's good to eat?"
Between men and women, eye contact is often more powerful than words. They'd already exchanged glances, and he
'd probably given her countless flirtatious glances: "Ah, you're not a local?" "We're from here?" "Fun things to do include a shop, a three-storey
shop, a cinema, a nice one along the Mengjiang River, and dance halls. There's plenty of good food too: Lao Tian's tofu pudding, the sweet and sour
pork at Lianhua Bridge, the braised pig's trotters at Xiaoshizi Street, and the dan dan noodles at the big cinema—all quite delicious." "
The kind of sudden encounters between young people always brings joy and excitement. This girl seemed to
enjoy Zhang Mo's initiative in starting a conversation, and her tone was warm and friendly.
Zhang Mo feigned surprise and said, 'Wow, you know so much about this! Could you introduce me to everyone later? I'm really
struggling with this; I'm completely clueless.' He spoke politely yet skillfully, trying to get closer to her."
The waitress, opening the door, said, "Sure, but how will you thank me?" She turned and
gave him a warm look. When a man and woman find each other agreeable, they subtly probe each other's intentions with a lighthearted exchange
.
As they talked, they entered the room. "Of course," he said, "any way you want me to thank you. I didn't expect
to meet such a kind person on my first day."
The waitress replied, "You've made me feel embarrassed to ask for anything in return. So, what are you doing here?"
Zhang Mo said, "I came here to discuss some business with your hardware and chemical company, but unfortunately, the purchasing manager is away on a business trip, so I can only
wait here for a few days. What can I do these few days? I can't just sit in the guesthouse all day, can I? I was thinking of taking advantage of
this free time to wander around and get to know you better." "I understand, this will help our business, won't it?"
The waitress said, "Isn't that easy? Our place isn't big, just two main streets in each direction.
If you're not afraid of getting tired, you can walk around all day."
Zhang Mo replied, "That only gives you a general view of the streets, you still don't know the actual things. Hey... how about
you be my guide, sister? I can pay you 100 yuan a day, plus food and clothing, hehe,
how about that? If you think it's too low, I can raise it."
Upon hearing this, the waitress's pupils immediately dilated several times. 100 yuan a day? What does that mean? At that time, an
average person's monthly salary might not even exceed 100 yuan, and he was offering 100 yuan a day. This surprise was even greater than when she first saw Zhang Mo, this
handsome guy: "Ah??? Uh, 100? That's not low... not low... um... just leading
you around is enough?" She was a little dizzy. How lucky she was today, with both beauty and money.
It seemed she was about to become rich.
Zhang Mo: "Yeah, I just want to find a real local to tell me about the real situation here
."
Waitress: "So... when do we start?"
Zhang Mo: "If it's convenient for you, how about tomorrow?"
Waitress: "Sure... sure, I'm on the night shift tomorrow, I have the day off."
Zhang Mo: "By the way, after all this talk, what's your surname? My name is Zhang Qian." He deliberately concealed his real name.
Waitress: "My surname is Wang, call me Wang Yan... hehe."
The two chatted about random things, mostly the usual flirting and relationship-building stuff. When the
girl left the room, her heart was still pounding with excitement. She could accompany a handsome guy and get a hundred yuan a day!
She was overjoyed, even skipping away. Zhang Mo hadn't expected things to go so smoothly
, and he felt much more at ease, hoping to get some useful information or clues tomorrow.
The waitress named Wang Yan was of above-average looks. If she were too unattractive, she
wouldn't have gotten the job; if she were too attractive, she'd probably be snatched up long ago. She was in a
position where people wanted to take advantage of her, but didn't want to invest too much. She was tall, with a ponytail, slightly dark skin, a thin face, and somewhat almond-shaped
eyes. She wouldn't be called exceptionally beautiful, but she was pleasing to the eye. While not as stunning as Zhang Mo's wife
, in Li Tun, apart from the Li sisters, there was no one quite like her.
The next day, as agreed, the two left the guesthouse early and went to eat Tian's tofu pudding and fried dough sticks
. The freshly made tofu pudding was indeed incredibly fresh and tender. Having spent the last few years in Mengjiang, Zhang Mo missed the tofu
pudding from Li Tun. The tofu in the county town wasn't as authentic as in the village; the texture wasn't as smooth and tender. Today's tofu pudding
tasted just like the one from the village.
After a brief stroll through the three shops, Zhang Mo, of course, was familiar with the Mengjiang River. His intention was to get closer to Wang Yan,
not to actually shop. He bought her two small gifts and gave her a 200-yuan note as a token of sincerity
. It was better to put the money in the note than to simply hand it over, making it more palatable and easier for her to accept. Wang Yan was initially a little embarrassed
, worried that accepting the money would leave a bad impression on Zhang Mo, but secretly she wanted to immediately grab the note and
count the old bills inside.
It wasn't until Zhang Mo repeatedly explained that it was a sincere gift and that she had indeed helped him a great deal as a guide, and that it was
what she deserved, that she reluctantly accepted. Afterwards, Zhang Mo didn't have her lead him
around the streets and alleys, but instead went to the Mengjiang River to enjoy the scenery and chat. Wang Yan, of course, didn't refuse; this time alone made her
daydream a little more. Zhang Mo wasn't exactly a novice at pursuing girls. After years of charming Yin Lingyi, he'd honed his skills to a
certain extent. They also had plenty to talk about. Through his conversation with Wang Yan, he gained a deeper understanding of the city, Teng Tao
's position and influence, and many inside stories. Previously, Zhang Mo's understanding of Teng Tao had been superficial; Teng Tao
deliberately managed his subordinates in a modular fashion, only allowing them to execute orders and minimizing their knowledge.
Wang Yan, meanwhile, had completely lowered her guard around this handsome and generous out-of-towner, filled with
admiration and aura. She shared everything Zhang Mo wanted to know, afraid her words would be worthless.
They ate braised pig's trotters and sweet and sour pork for lunch, and watched a movie in the afternoon. The atmosphere of a movie theater was perfect for
cultivating a romantic connection; it was a pity there weren't any private rooms available then, otherwise the effect would have been even better. However, Wang Yan's attention
wasn't actually on the movie; she was constantly monitoring Zhang Mo's actions with a keen eye, somewhat afraid of his
sudden moves and how she would react.
If she complied, she would appear frivolous and lack self-respect; if she refused outright, she feared losing a
good opportunity and scaring the other person away. Yet, she also longed for him to make a move—it was an instinctive reaction. A man and a woman together,
mutually attracted, in such an ambiguous situation, something was bound to happen, right?
Zhang Mo's attention wasn't on the movie at this moment; he was considering how to get information about Xie Fanghua from Wang Yan,
how to find a starting point without making her feel abrupt. If it aroused suspicion or wariness, it would be troublesome and
greatly affect their actions at the guesthouse later. So, how about developing a further relationship with her? It was a good idea, but
based on his experience pursuing Yin Lingyi, rushing things wouldn't work. The momentum was good now, and he didn't want to ruin the hard-
won situation. And so it was—that's how people are, always speculating, testing, and doubting each other.
The complexity of human relationships lies in this; it's hard to grasp that perfect moment.
But this state isn't without its advantages. When people are most passionate and in the best state, it's not necessarily when both parties confess...
Before the relationship was established, but before the truth was revealed, there was anxiety, uncertainty, and a bittersweet feeling, like riding a rollercoaster,
with its highs and lows – the most thrilling and exciting part. After leaving the cinema, they ate Sichuan Dan Dan noodles across the street.
Their signature dishes were mapo tofu and dried tofu with green peppers, both quite authentic. Although Zhang Mo hadn't taken any further
action and had been polite all day, Wang Yan was somewhat disappointed. As the saying goes, "Women
love bad boys," and sometimes women like men to be a little roguish, a little wild, a little vulgar, because it's
a natural need, a release of primal desires. Women also enjoy sexual teasing and stimulation, but you have to
find the right balance, making her feel both safe and sexually aroused.
Despite the disappointment, it undeniably added points to Zhang Mo's image, proving that he wasn't frivolous and gave her
a sense of security and reliability. After finishing his meal, it was almost time for Wang Yan to go to work. Zhang Mo went back to the guesthouse first, washed up
, and lay on the bed, anxiously wondering what to do next. He had gained a lot today, but he hadn't dared to touch on Xie Fanghua's matter.
Thinking about it, he actually fell asleep. Sometime later, he suddenly heard the sound of a door opening. Having followed Ye Nanfei for many years and
done dirty work for Teng Tao for several more, and with this particularly sensitive period, it was understandable that he was on high alert.
"Who...?" He sat up abruptly, a little disoriented, realizing he was
in a tent in the mountains.
The light suddenly came on: "What's up? Tired from the day? I was wondering why you were sitting so quietly in the room,
oh, you were asleep, huh?"
