“I don’t want it!” Chen Qiuqiu returned the money to Xiang Jingtian. Compared to being together with him, this ten million yuan was nothing!
‘Qiuqiu.” Xiang Jingtian sounded very helpless. “It’s already impossible between you and me. Don’t pester me anymore.” He was a little frustrated. He had seen the real Chen Qiuqiu clearly now. A while ago, when he went out of his mind, Chen Qiuqiu wouldn’t come back to him. He begged her and said that he loved her, but what did she do? She snuggled into the arms of a man who was old enough to be her father, and mocked him for being a useless pauper. She even looked at him with disgust. Those scenes flashed through his mind like it all happened yesterday.
Chen Qiuqiu had come with her “boyfriend” to attend the homecoming banquet for the future heir of the Xiang family. Previously, when she heard that the Xiang family’s child would be raised outside of the family for 20 years, she found it unbelievable. Why did an heir have to be like a beggar? However, she also felt that it was fun. If a girl had a discerning eye and dated the heir during his time outside the family, wouldn’t she strike it rich in the future? Then, Xiang Jingtian walked out shrouded in glory. Chen Qiuqiu’s eyes widened! She regretted it so much that she felt quite ill!
Chen Qiuqiu’s gaze followed Xiang Jingtian. When she saw him walking out of the venue, she immediately ran after him. “Jingtian, don’t be like this. We’ve been in love for so many years. Our relationship is very strong. I dream of you every day. I don’t want your money. I only want you…”
“Qiuqiu…” Xiang Jingtian’s head hurt. Previously, he had always spoken to Ye Yao with disrespect. Later on, he understood that given his upbringing, he should not be treating girls so rudely. Therefore, when confronted by Chen Qiuqiu’s persistent pestering, he could not speak harsh words and became very frustrated. Chen Qiuqiu had grabbed the man by his arm and he couldn’t shake it off.
“Chen Qiuqiu, right? I think you should accept the bank card.” Ye Yao walked up to them and smiled at the entangled couple. She said with a teasing gaze, “Miss Chen Qiuqiu, if you don’t accept this bank card now, and you forgo the ten million, you may end up without a single cent. If I were you, I would use this ten million yuan to live a carefree life.”
When Chen Qiuqiu saw Ye Yao, her expression turned very ugly. “Who are you to meddle in other people’s business!”
“That’s right, I’m a busybody.” Ye Yao chuckled. “I just feel that you are such a shameless person, abandoning your boyfriend for money, and then coming back to pester him for a reconciliation when you find out that he is rich. You’re really thick-skinned! I reckon even the city wall isn’t as thick as your skin!”
“Ye Yao…” When Xiang Jingtian saw Ye Yao, there was a hint of embarrassment on his handsome face. He couldn’t feel more awkward, having Ye Yao witnessed this scene where he was being pestered by his ex-girlfriend, and had trouble getting rid of her.
Ye Yao waved her hand. “Xiang Jingtian, why are you so vicious to me? You’d hurl all sorts of vulgarities and horrible words at me, but in the presence of your ex-girlfriend, you can’t say a single word? I have a lot of objections to you doing this. Am I not a girl as well?”
Ye Yao was really upset! The first time Xiang Jingtian saw her, his words were harsh and unpleasant. Now, he was being so gentle to his ex-girlfriend who cheated on him?! This was too biased!
Xiang Jingtian was rather ashamed. He was really too rude to Ye Yao previously. During that period of time, he was driven to insanity and felt that his world was dark. Girls had ulterior motives towards him. At that time, Ye Yao actually refused to dance with him because he had a boyfriend. It instantly hit his nerves, hence… even now, he was very regretful! However, Ye Yao was right. There was no longer any possibility between him and Chen Qiuqiu. There was no need to be entangled.
Xiang Jingtian looked at Chen Qiuqiu and said) “Our paths will never meet again. In the future, my family will select a suitable wife for me. We’re not compatible. This 10 million yuan signifies the end of our relationship. Just take it. ”
Tears welled up in Chen Qiuqiu’s eyes. “No, I once lost myself for money. No matter what, I won’t take this bank card.”
Ye Yao quickly reached for the bank card. “What do you mean you don’t want the bank card? I think you just want more, now you’ve realized that Xiang Jingtian is from a significant background and this mere 10 million yuan is nothing to him.. As long as you get Xiang Jingtian, you’ll have wealth and glory for the rest of your life, right? Is that what you think?”
