Ji Jinchuan kept his women for only three months. During this period, they had to be at his beck and call and they were not allowed to find him in his company or make a ruckus there. After their break-up in three months, they were not allowed to pester him.
Outside, there were rumors that said his personality was cold and dull, but women who wanted to have sex with him were like an unruly crowd on a wild goose chase.
That was because he had money and power. Moreover, he gave loads of money to women who dated him. After three months, they would even receive a significant sum of money for their breakup.
After their session, Ji Jinchuan did not loiter around and left. After he left, the room was still filled with an enchanting atmosphere of people making love to each other.
Shen Youran took the check from the nightstand and looked at the numbers on it. Her lips curled up into a self-deprecating smile. Five hundred thousand. Her first time…
Just now, they did it a total of three times. Because Gu Jinchen did not need it, she gave her most precious thing to a stranger.
Whether it was family background or looks, this man would not lose to Gu Jinchen, so she would not lose out either, right?
Yet why was her heart in pain? The type of pain where she felt indignant after being abandoned by others.
A cool liquid slowly flowed down from her eyes, and she tried her best to bite down on her lips, preventing herself from crying.
…
The Shen residence had been passed down for several generations. It was a retro-style house that looked like a castle. Green and slimy ivy climbed on the walls of the red house and looked very eye-catching under the sunlight.
The sycamore tree in the residence was tall and straight while the flower garden was stylish and beautiful. The water fountain was like a heavenly girl scattering flowers. During midsummer, it was cool and comforting to have a slow walk under the shade of trees.
Shen Youran made someone move a deck chair on the grass patch beside the flower garden. She lay on the deck chair and silently read her book. A cup of coffee was placed on the transparent glass table beside her, and the scene gave off a sense of leisure during a peaceful time.
Mother Zhang rushed forward. “Second Missy, Old Master and the others have come back.”
“I got it,” she replied and closed the book in her hands. She collected herself and walked to the living room.
An old man over 60 years of age sat on the sofa and had on Chinese clothes while holding an exquisitely-carved walking stick. On his thumb was a jade ring, and his white hair was neatly combed.
A pair of travel-worn husband and wife sat beside him. The man was wearing a suit and leather shoes while the woman was wearing a dark purple cheongsam and had a beige shawl over her neck. She looked graceful and extravagant.
She changed her shoes at the entrance and walked into the living room. “Grandpa, Dad, Mom.”
Shen Yaoting gave a slight nod. Compared to Shen Youting’s coldness, Tang Huiru was emotional as she pulled her and touched her thin face while her eyes were brimming with tears. “Youran, you lost weight.”
Her mouth was slightly open, and she wanted to talk but a cold scoff rang in the silent living room.
She looked towards that direction. Old Master Shen looked at her with a mighty gaze. “You still remember how to come back!”
She gently pursed her lips and kept quiet.
In the whole Shen family, Old Master Shen had always disliked her. Because when Tang Huiru was pregnant with her, the doctor had accidentally identified her child as a son. Old Master Shen was happy to the core, yet a daughter was given birth to.
Moreover, when Tang Huiru gave birth to her, she suffered severe bleeding and could not bear a child again. Hence, the Shen family’s only male heir stopped at Shen Yaoting.
The Shen family had a large family business and needed someone to inherit it. Old Master Shen had intended for him to keep a mistress who’d bear a son for him before bringing the son back to the Shen family and using money to make the woman leave City A.
Shen Yaoting and Tang Huiru were classmates in high school and confirmed their love in university. After they were married, their relationship was maintained well.
Towards Old Master Shen’s suggestion, Shen Yaoting was disagreeable. Because of this matter, the two of them argued frequently and Old Master Shen had even ended up in the hospital due to his anger.
