Chu Yichen was silent. He stared at her for a second and told the chauffeur to drive, just as Li An’an thought he was going to give her more trouble.
After the convoy left, Li An’an breathed a sigh of relief.
If this conversation happened a few more times, her blood pressure would surely rise. She didn’t care, but Chu Yichen had a bad temper and would definitely be angered. Besides, he was very vengeful. She would be the unlucky one.
Bai Feifei walked out of the villa.
“Stop right there. Have you forgotten my warning?! Do you have a death wish? You’d better believe that I’ll get someone to cut your face.”
Bai Feifei felt jealous every time she saw Li An’an’s beautiful face. She was also very beautiful; the doctor had said that her face was his most outstanding work. However, it was simply unnatural after plastic surgery. Compared to Li An’an’s natural beauty, it was far inferior. Moreover, Chu Yichen’s attitude towards Li An’an was very strange.
“It was the butler who asked me to hand him the documents. Don’t put the blame on me. Besides, I didn’t do anything wrong. What right do you have to ruin my face?” Li An’an said sarcastically.
“What right? How about the fact that my birth is way higher than yours? I told you not to play tricks in front of me. Don’t think that I don’t know about you. You were dealt with because you seduced Chu Yichen, and you still had the cheek to come here. Do you think I’ll believe you?”
Bai Feifei was actually very anxious because the agreed-upon trial period between her family and the Chu family was coming to an end. If she could not become Chu Yichen’s woman, she had to leave this place. Her family would also arrange a new blind date for her.
None of those men could ever compare to Chu Yichen. She could not accept it.
Li An’an suddenly smiled and said, “You can ask me to leave if you want. Give me money and I’ll leave!”
Didn’t Bai Feifei want her out of the picture? Sure, just give her money and she’d leave immediately.
Bai Feifei couldn’t believe that she would agree so quickly.
“Are you serious?”
“Of course. Isn’t it worth it to simply buy my exit? Didn’t you say that your family is rich? Give me 200,000 yuan and I’ll leave. I’m sure you can afford that, right?”
Li An’an calculated that 200,000 yuan would last her for a long time. She would even get to leave this place, killing two birds with one stone.
“Hmph, 200,000 yuan is just the price of one of my bags. Hehe, you really are a country bumpkin.”
Bai Feifei mocked her. She’d expected Li An’an to be even more conniving, but in the end, a mere 200,000 yuan was enough to get rid of her.
“I don’t have the money with me. I’ll give it to you tonight. Go and resign now.”
Li An’an shook her head. “No way, what if I resign and you don’t pay me? You know how generous the benefits are here. Countless women would kill to get in.”
“I know, why don’t I go and hang out in front of Miss Gu? She might be able to give me more.”
Li An’an provoked Bai Feifei. Both she and Miss Gu had feelings for Chu Yichen, so it was normal for them to vie with each other, right?
“As if. You think I’m not as rich as her? Fine, I’ll have someone send the money over immediately. Take it and get out!”
“It’s a deal.”
Li An’an was pretty happy. Once she got the money, even if she left this place, she wouldn’t be in a financial pinch.
Just as a smile appeared on her face, she heard a dignified voice from behind.
“Li An’an, since you’ve received an advance payment, you are obliged to work. If you dare to resign after receiving that 200,000 yuan, the Chu family’s legal team will bankrupt you.”
Li An’an turned around. Butler Chu was standing behind her, looking at her sternly.
Then, he turned to Bai Feifei.
“Miss Bai, since you’ve agreed to stay, you must abide by the rules here. You can’t bribe the servants with money and coerce them into disloyal behavior.”
Bai Feifei was shocked and felt guilty.
“I did not. I was just testing her. Butler Chu, you saw that she’s a greedy woman. You can’t let her stay here. She could betray us at any time.”
Bai Feifei’s eyes flashed with malice as she turned the tables.
She knew that Chu Yichen didn’t like people who were wishy-washy, and he certainly wouldn’t want someone who could betray him in an instant.
This woman had violated his taboo. Although Bai Feifei could not use money to make her leave, this method was not bad either.
Li An’an’s heart skipped a beat. Bai Feifei was so evil. She was the one who had bribed her first, but now she was pushing the blame.
Butler Chu’s eyes flickered.
“I’ll consult Young Master about this. It’s not up to me to decide whether Li An’an will stay or leave.”
“Also, let me remind you, Miss Bai, you only have one week left. If you still can’t get into Young Master’s bed, please leave immediately.”
“And from then on, you will no longer be welcome here.”
Bai Feifei bit her lip and nodded. “I know. I’ll work hard and I’ll definitely succeed. Didn’t he take a second look at me yesterday? And I was upstairs for one minute longer. I’m sure you saw everything.”
Butler Chu’s expression was noncommittal.
Bai Feifei left with a heavy heart.
Li An’an was sure that she would really be chased out this time! And it’s just as well! At least the children would be safe.
Chu De went to report what had happened today.
In the spacious round conference room, Chu Yichen was hosting the meeting. All the overseas video calls were currently connected. The fittings in the entire conference room were conspicuously high-tech.
Just as the meeting ended, his butler called.
