Chapter 243 — The Bizarre Condition "Bang..."

But Wei Zhao was this fast even when beating people up! She had not even seen how the wine bottle in Scarface's hand ended up in Wei Zhao's hand before it exploded on top of Scarface's head.
And that bamboo skewer, to actually use it like a dart to stab someone? What kind of man was this?
Lowering her head, she was just about to ask Wei Zhao whether he knew kung fu, when she saw he had already buried his head and started eating, feasting away at a basin of spicy skewers. Sun Jingyan was instantly speechless.
He had just beaten someone, so bloody, and now he could eat like nothing had happened!
"Mmm... right, tell me about this file-stealing job you want me to do?" Wei Zhao ate more than twenty spicy skewers before he slowed down and said to Sun Jingyan.
"The other side is a trading company just like us. We handle pretty much the same lines, office supplies and computer products," Sun Jingyan explained when Wei Zhao asked. "But one of our sales managers gave a supervisor at a big company a cut of the deal to win their business, what they commonly call a kickback. Somehow, the rival company had someone film it, and now they're using it to blackmail our company..."
"Oh, like that. So their company doesn't do that sort of thing?" Wei Zhao picked up two more spicy skewers as he asked.
"It's no secret in the trade. If you want to win business, how can you do it without giving the people in charge a little something? They do it too, it's just that we were the ones who got caught on camera." Sun Jingyan sounded helpless.
"If it's exposed, what harm does it do you?" Wei Zhao asked.
"We could be punished by the authorities, and of course, we'd lose that client! He's a major client of ours, buying over ten million yuan worth of computers and related office equipment from us every year. Once it's exposed, that supervisor won't just lose his job, he could be held liable by his company!" Sun Jingyan said. "The most critical problem is, what company would dare work with us afterward? If even taking a kickback might get exposed, who would come to such an unsafe company? We'd probably have to shut down..."
"That serious?" Wei Zhao did not understand business matters, but Sun Jingyan's explanation gave him the general idea. "Then what terms did the other company offer? If they only wanted to crush you as a competitor, they'd have made the video public already, instead of waiting for you to hire me to steal it."
"Exactly." Sun Jingyan nodded. "Making it public would hurt us, but it wouldn't do them any good. After all, it's a lose-lose move. There are more than just our two trading companies in Songshan City, there are many others. If our company loses its clients, there's no guarantee they'd go to their company."
"Tell me their terms." That was what Wei Zhao was interested in.
"Their terms are... the boss of that company wants me to be his mistress." Sun Jingyan said.
"Huh?! Pfft..." Wei Zhao spat out the half-chewed spicy skewer right out of his mouth... "Cough cough, what did you say? Their condition is for you to be his mistress?"
"Yes!" Sun Jingyan nodded firmly. "So your payment will be half of theirs. I'll be your mistress too, but without performing a mistress's duties, because I'm only your half-mistress."
