Lu Ci couldn’t help but spray him: "Can’t you be a decent person?"
You dog, you scammed me this one time, and I lost thirty million. I’ll get that money back from you sooner or later!
"Eating a meal I treated you to and still cursing me, are you even human?" Fu Shihan sat calmly on the chair watching them, then asked Su Yao, "Wanwan said you’re here to ask for money from me?"
"Right." Su Yao nodded affirmatively, "About the matter with Zhang Xinjie, I forgot to ask you for the money earlier. Let’s clear things up today."
Fu Shihan also nodded, "To be honest, I’ve been a little tight on money recently."
Su Yao: "???"
Lu Ci: "..."
"How about this, I marry into your Su Family, what do you think? We can consider the case money as the dowry?"
Su Yao was dumbfounded because she had never seen someone so shameless! Lu Ci, standing by, also wanted to curse him.
Fu Shihan just sat there, with the air of if you don’t give me the money, then I’ll marry into your family, leaving the usually quick-witted Su Yao speechless with anger.
What’s the point of talking to a rascal? It’s all useless!
"Brother Han, you really are too shameless." Lu Ci shook his head and sighed, "I admire that."
Fu Shihan smiled and accepted the praise. Su Yao, angered, pointed at him and threatened, "You just wait! If you don’t give me the money, don’t even think about entering my house!"
After saying that, she turned around in a huff and left. Fu Shihan wasn’t flustered at all, just watched as Lu Ci gave him a thumbs up, then followed Su Yao out, put on his glasses, and continued to deal with work.
Downstairs, Su Yao and Lu Ci exchanged phone numbers, and she drove back to the law firm. On the way, she cursed Fu Shihan and still hadn’t cooled off by the time she entered her office.
"Boss, this was sent over by someone from Fu Group during lunch."
Just as Su Yao sat down, she saw her assistant enter the room, placing an envelope on her desk.
Su Yao frowned and asked, "What is it? When did it arrive?"
"It came right after you left, I don’t know what it is."
"...Okay, got it, you can leave now."
Once the door closed, leaving Su Yao alone, she furrowed her brows and opened the envelope, finding two pieces of paper inside.
One was a blank check, and the other was a handwritten note from Fu Shihan, which read: Fill in the amount yourself.
So, was he just messing with her in his office earlier?
Indignant, Su Yao casually filled in fifty million. She got paid three million just for attending a meal. Taking time and effort to fight a lawsuit for him, what’s wrong with fifty million? It was generous of her not to write a billion!
Su Yao put the check away, and after being busy for most of the evening, she changed into the clothes her assistant had gone out to buy in advance, touched up her makeup a bit, and went downstairs.
Lu Ci’s car was already parked downstairs. Seeing her, he was briefly taken aback before teasingly mocking, "Didn’t expect Miss Su to be so committed to the job."
"I have very high professional standards," Su Yao huffed, "I have to do a good job when I’ve taken the money."
So agreeing to pretend to be his girlfriend tonight, she would surely deliver a performance worth thirty million.
On the way, Lu Ci briefly explained to Su Yao about his family situation and the difficulties he was currently facing.
After listening, Su Yao nodded in understanding, feeling that this guy was pretty much the same as those bachelors in her family, a target of oppression every day that they remained unmarried.
"Don’t worry, sister will put on a good show tonight!" Su Yao patted her chest in assurance, but when they arrived at the Lu Family’s place, everything changed.
