Manipulative Harem God

Chapter 146 Long Feng Qiye? Making a deal with system?

Stepping outside, Zhang Wei's head shook vigorously and he hastily adjusted his expression as Rose materialized from the shadows, wearing a complex look on her face.

"You are quite brutal," she remarked, her eyes betraying a hidden fear lurking within.

A mischievous smile danced across Zhang Wei's lips as he looked at her. "If you don't perform your duties properly, then you just might find yourself replaced."

A chill ran down Rose's spine at his words, instantly causing her body to tremble. But then, in the blink of an eye, Zhang Wei burst into laughter, causing her to exhale a sigh of relief.

The conversation took a new turn as Rose began updating Zhang Wei on the progress of the new company and inquired about a suitable name for it.

"A name, you say?" Zhang Wei muttered, his brows slightly furrowed as he delved into deep thought, knowing all too well that naming things was not his forte.

.....

He pondered over what would make a great name for himself, one that could reflect his dragon bloodline. However, simply having the surname "Long" seemed too short and lacked impact.

As he contemplated the situation, disdain filled Zhang Wei's thoughts about the despicable system he possessed.

Though he initially considered including its name in his own, recognizing the influence it had on his life, a flicker of suspicion latched onto his mind.

He couldn't help but believe that this very system was responsible for wreaking havoc and bringing chaos into his world.

Consequently, he felt reluctant to even inquire about the spirit's name, assuming it had one to begin with.

But then, a sudden revelation struck him like a bolt of lightning. "How about Feng?" he mused aloud.

He couldn't help but be reminded of the majestic phoenixes that surrounded him.

The idea of combining the elements of dragon and phoenix in his ventures seemed utterly perfect.

"Long Feng Qiye," he murmured to himself.

The name resonated with power and elegance, representing the fusion of two mythical creatures.

Building an enterprise based on the enigmatic nature of both dragons and phoenixes seemed like an ideal path to tread.

In the end, after careful consideration, he settled on the name "Long Feng Enterprises."

Rose, didn't question his choice.

She understood the significance and resonance of such a name.

[A/N: Rose real name was Long Yufei :)]

However, the conversation didn't end there.

Rose inquired if there was anything else she could assist him with, and he handed her a file containing the necessary documents to transfer shares.

He requested that she retrieve Lin Ruoxi's signature.

Consumed by the thrill of manipulating Lin Ruoxi's emotions, Zhang Wei had forgotten to handle this task himself.

Oblivious to his oversight, Rose nodded in agreement, assuming he was entrusting her with a crucial responsibility.

In her eyes, this demonstrated his unwavering trust in her abilities.

Yet, to Rose's dismay, Zhang Wei abruptly bid her farewell and left without seeking her presence any further.

After spending an intimate night with him, she had secretly hoped for a second rendezvous.

Alas, Zhang Wei remained oblivious to her wistful and longing gaze as he briskly made his way towards his awaiting car.

It was in that moment that the system within him suddenly piped up, breaking the silence and capturing his attention.

[Host, how about we make a deal?]

"Deal? What kind?" Zhang Wei couldn't believe what he was hearing. The system had suddenly thrown this unexpected proposition at him out of the blue.

[Host, I would compensate you. In return, how about you forget anything that I may have done to anger you? Let's call it a truce.]

Zhang Wei's eyebrows shot up, his mind racing to comprehend the situation. He had harbored intentions of tormenting this system, but this unexpected offer caught him off guard.

"Why are you offering a deal now?" Suspicion crept across Zhang Wei's face, his tone tinged with skepticism. "Are you... Sacred?"

[It's simply a logical choice, host. According to my calculations, you have caused immense suffering to that Lin girl all because of a small resentment in your heart, stemming from her blue balling you once. I wonder what plans the host has in store for me.]

The system recounted an incident where, upon receiving Lin Ruoxi's call, Yu Lei had abandoned Zhang Wei to accompany her to the company, ruthlessly interrupting their plans for the weekend.

The system displayed a depth of knowledge about Zhang Wei's life that left him unfazed.

[How about it, host? Is a truce not possible?]

Zhang Wei pondered for a moment, his brow furrowing, before finally shaking his head. "Depends on what you can offer," he responded, his tone guarded and wary.

A brief silence hung in the air, tension building between the two parties.

[Host, how about I offer you information?] The words flowed out, dripping with a hint of intrigue and mystery.

Zhang Wei let out a soft, disbelieving laugh. "Information? What good is it to me? Are you foolish enough to offer me nuclear codes?" Sarcasm laced his voice as he mused to himself.

[No, host], came the swift reply, tinged with confidence. [But with my information, you can unravel two of your most pressing problems. Firstly, dealing with the Wang Family. Secondly, your desire for women.]

Zhang Wei's eyebrows lifted in surprise, his eyes narrowing with curiosity. "Hm?" he uttered, his interest piqued. "Oh, really? But what if you're just deceiving me?" His voice held a note of caution, scars from past betrayals etched in his words.

He wasn't going to trust system and it's sketchy deals so easily.

[If you find yourself dissatisfied, I would be willing to pay with a heavenly ranked pill! But, dear Host, please understand that rewards cannot be given for free; I have to pay a price with my own strength. The more strength I lose, the longer it will take for me to recover. It won't affect the system's capabilities, but my spirit will forever remain unable to materialize in the real world, and the Assistant feature may cease to function.]

Zhang Wei absorbed the system's words, the weight of its offer sinking into his thoughts. After a moment of deep contemplation, he made up his mind; he would take the deal.

He had never harbored anger towards the system itself, but rather towards its master, the one who had created it!

In a cunning move, he decided to redirect the punishment intended for the system towards its true master.

As the realization struck him, a wicked grin curled on Zhang Wei's lips. The system remained blissfully unaware that his actions would ultimately harm its very creator.
