203: Chapter 203 Taking the Initiative to Invite!She had been by Shen Zhou’s side for a while now, yet she hadn’t made any further progress with him.

This made her feel even more grateful toward Shen Zhou.

In all fairness, if a wealthy man offers a beautiful woman a salary several times higher than what she would normally earn,

it is actually a very clear hint.

If this beautiful woman truly didn’t want to take the money, she should have just quit the job.

So, since she had already accepted the job, even if Shen Zhou wanted to take things further, Maria would have no choice but to let him.

Yet, despite having every opportunity to push his luck, Shen Zhou had restrained himself until now and showed no signs of wanting to make a move.

Regardless of what Shen Zhou was thinking, Maria was very grateful to him at this moment.

In fact, for Shen Zhou, he was not lacking beautiful women by his side.

Moreover, Maria had been diligently performing all her duties by his side during this period.

This caused him to appreciate Maria more and more, and the relationship between the two grew increasingly familiar.

It even made him somewhat reluctant to make a move on Maria.

After all, what he lacked most wasn’t beautiful women, but female subordinates who were both beautiful and capable.

”If I act too rashly, it might affect our relationship. Better not be in a hurry.”

Shen Zhou muttered to himself before finally putting the matter out of his mind.

After returning to his room, he pondered the future direction of his relationship with Monica.

But no matter how he thought about it, he felt that the presence of the women around him and Monica’s family background was an unsolvable conflict.

How could members of an extremely noble family like Monica’s possibly tolerate Shen Zhou having other women by his side?

In any case, Shen Zhou could not abandon all his current female companions for the sake of one woman.

He was incapable of doing something so heartless.

So, this matter was temporarily unsolvable.

With no other choice, Shen Zhou turned on the television and began browsing local news reports.

He focused on local economic news and the development status of various projects on local channels.

Ever since investing in Zhao Pengju’s investment company, although Shen Zhou didn’t need to involve himself in the specific details,

whenever he encountered public news media, he subconsciously looked for potential investment projects.

He wasn’t afraid of losing money on an investment; he was only afraid of not finding a suitable project.

If he lost money, the worst-case scenario was just slowly grinding it back through his other female companions.

While Shen Zhou was casually flipping through different news channels, there was a sudden knock at the door.

”Who is it this time?”

Shen Zhou couldn’t help but frown.

If Maria were coming over, she would have contacted him via phone beforehand; she wouldn’t knock so abruptly.

Somewhat annoyed, Shen Zhou rolled out of bed and opened the door.

What met his eyes was a gorgeous woman with a provocative outfit and an aggressively beautiful face.

The woman was holding a suit jacket in her hands.

”Is there something else?”

Shen Zhou’s eyes were full of surprise.

This woman hadn’t seen him enter this room personally, so how did she know he lived here?

”I’m sorry, sir. I was in such a hurry earlier that I forgot to ask which room you were in. I had to ask the staff at the front desk.”

”The staff weren’t willing to tell me where you lived at first, but after they checked the surveillance and cleared everything up, I finally found your room.”

The gorgeous woman lowered her head shyly, but like a maidservant, she kept holding Shen Zhou’s suit jacket with both hands.

”Sir, your clothes have been cleaned.”

The woman’s cheeks were slightly flushed, but the rhythm of her speech was very calm, even giving off a delicate, orchid-like breath.

Coming into close contact with this woman again, Shen Zhou even caught a very rich fragrance from her.

But this scent wasn’t cloying or offensive; it was a unique fragrance, like the fresh scent of a city after rain, which completely soothed his emotions.

An unusual ripple rose in Shen Zhou’s heart, but his face remained expressionless as he simply nodded: ”Thank you.”

As he spoke, Shen Zhou naturally reached out for the suit jacket, but in the moment of contact, his right hand accidentally brushed against the woman’s palm.

Instantly, an exquisite sensation traveled from his fingers to his heart.

Shen Zhou’s heart couldn’t help but flutter, but as a veteran of many such encounters, he still didn’t show the slightest hint of anything unusual.

As Shen Zhou took the clothes and prepared to turn back into his room, a flash of reluctance suddenly appeared in the woman’s eyes.

”Wait a moment, sir. After all, I accidentally dirtied your clothes today. Even if they’re cleaned, it’s still my fault.”

”How about this? I don’t know if you’re busy later, but I’d like to invite you for a drink. I’ll treat you to a big meal as an apology.”

The gorgeous woman spoke a lot at once and took the initiative to extend an invitation.

Shen Zhou was momentarily stunned.

The woman before him had outstanding looks and an extremely hot figure; she really didn’t look like someone who lacked male companions.

So why was she being so proactive in front of him?

”Could it be that I’m being targeted as prey?”

Shen Zhou couldn’t help but wonder to himself.

But the woman before him was indeed his type. If it was a hunt, he certainly wasn’t afraid.

In the end, it was hard to say who would be whose prey.

Shen Zhou laughed heartily without hesitation: ”I would be honored. No need for a meal, let’s go for a drink.”

”Okay, whatever you say. There’s a decent-sized bar not far from this hotel. Let’s go have a drink there.”

The woman was very happy, her smile becoming even more radiant, and a very obvious look of joy appeared in her eyes.

”No problem, we’ll do as you say.”

Shen Zhou naturally had no objections.

Of course, by the time Shen Zhou and the woman left the hotel, Maria had already received a text from him and arranged for two bodyguards to follow at a certain distance.

At this point, Shen Zhou was unwilling to let himself fall into danger easily.

After all, he had already exposed his wealth; who knew how many people were watching him from the shadows.

Shen Zhou entered the bar with the gorgeous woman and lightly tapped the area of his ear canal, where a miniature earpiece had already begun operating.

Upon entering the bar, Shen Zhou found that the overall decor was quite stylish.

The patrons tended to be young, and both the music and lighting were quite high-end.

The two of them found some empty seats at the bar and sat down immediately.
