Fei Nancheng saw her confused expression and said bluntly. “I won’t get engaged to you. That night, regardless of whether it was due to your efforts or because I made a mistake after drinking too much, you were the one who suffered a loss. So, just state a price.”
Shen Yugui felt as if she had been slapped hard on the face. A feeling of humiliation surged in her body, making her clench her fists.
Did he know just how hurtful those words were to a girl?
Suffered a loss?
She wanted to retort, ‘You’re the more good-looking one, so didn’t you suffer more?’
However, thinking of the few times she courted death before, she decided to endure.
That night, she showed up at his house with the intention of climbing onto him, so his mockery was not unfounded.
She lowered her head and said nothing.
Fei Nancheng grew annoyed.
Even after several investigations, he still did not know everything about this woman. He did not know why Grandma insisted on her either, so he could only make this woman step down herself.
She was after his money, right?
Then he would give her money!
Why was she putting on that expression of grievance now?
However, it was true that he misunderstood her because of the contract. Fei Nancheng paused for a moment before saying as patiently as possible. “Didn’t you want to get engaged with me because of money? If that’s the case, I’ll give you as much as you want, then you and I will be free of each other. Isn’t that better?”
He really could not understand why this woman was staying silent.
Shen Yugui could tell that Fei Nancheng was being sincere. Those words did not seem to be mocking her.
However… That night was her own choice. What right did she have to take his money?
What she wanted was to borrow his name and power to grab the Yu family company from Shen Tianhao’s hands!
Then, the two of them would be even. Even if they were engaged, they could annul it.
If he had not slept with her, she would not have to depend so much on him either.
However, she did not dare to say this out loud. She did not understand Fei Nancheng, and she did not believe him. If she told him and he told Shen Tianhao, she would end up helpless!
How could she refuse without telling the truth?
Shen Yugui racked her brains and a flash of inspiration struck her.
Just as Fei Nancheng felt his patience run out, he heard the girl say softly, “No.”
Fei Nancheng paused. ‘No’ what?
She looked up as if she gathered up all her courage. Her almond-shaped eyes were shy and her face was red. She cried out in determination. “I want to get engaged to you not because of your money. It’s because…”
Fei Nancheng frowned. “Because?”
In order to save trouble, he would agree to anything she wanted as long as she did not go too far.
However, the next moment, she shouted. “Because I like you!”
Fei Nancheng. “…”
Shen Yugui made her face red after much difficulty. She looked at him with sparkling eyes and spun some lies. “I saw you for the first time many years ago, and I fell in love with you at first sight! You have no idea how happy I was when the Old Madam let me be your fiancee! I’m not doing this because of your money. My father told me to make you sign the contract, but I refused. If you don’t believe me, I can swear it.”
She raised two fingers and said in a sincere voice. “If I actually want your money, I’ll be struck by lightning! You don’t have to give me a single penny in the future!”
Heavens, she really was not after his money!
She was speaking so sincerely. Should he believe her??
