âWhat?â Ji Weixi looked at Mo Nanfeng innocently, putting her chin on both hands. âYou are the heir of Mo Group, so three hundred thousand should be peanuts to you... or could it be that you canât let go what happened four years ago, and still hate me?â
With Mo Group bankrupt, he wouldnât be able to afford thirty thousand âmuch less three hundred thousand. It would leave him worse off than a beggar.
And she would love to see him pay that sum.
âNo, no.â Mo Nanfeng quickly denied. âWell... what is the full cost?â
âThat would depend on whether youâre going for something simple or elaborate, as well as the fabric.â Ji Weixi continued the duping in a businesslike manner. âMo Nanfeng, I believe in the bottom of my heart that a man of your identity only deserves the highest-grade fabric and the best of designs, which puts the full cost somewhere around several million. Of course, thatâs just the price of a car for you, right?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The womanâs gaze was crystal clear and her words sounded especially sincere, and yet contained an irresistible charm.
On the other hand, while Mo Nanfeng was keeping a calm exterior, his hands were sweating nervously beneath the table.
That was the first time he felt that it was so difficult to pay three hundred thousand.
âWeixi, I actually donât think the suit needs to be that fancy. Nowadays I like being subtle instead of showing off.â
Ji Weixi held her hand over her mouth. She almost laughed out loud.
Such a liar, neither blinking nor blushing.
âSubtle, huh. Then should I design the cheapest set?â she asked, offering him a way out.
Mo Nanfeng quickly nodded in acceptance, but grinned when he realized that it was too revealing. âYou know it, itâs just a ceremony... throwing away a whole suit after wearing it once is a little wasteful.â
âThen pay the deposit of two hundred thousand.â Ji Weixi replied.
Mo Nanfeng inhaled sharply but forced a smile. âWell... Weixi, I forgot to bring my card with me. May I make the deposit into your account in a few days?â
âSure,â Ji Weixi smiled politely. âActually, you should deposit the amount to my companyâs account without going through me.â
So that he knows she wouldnât be embezzling him.
With that, she rose and left.
Mo Nanfeng followed behind her, his eyes running all over her body.
Ji Weixi always wore formal attire to work: a white shirt, a dark high waist skirt.
Mo Nanfeng could see her hips shifting every step she took, and those long, white legs of hers.
He swallowed, regretting in that very moment.
Why did he choose Ji Jianing four years ago?

Meanwhile.
Huixing Entertainment Corporation.
âJianing, news about you is spreading across the whole world. I would like to help, but I canât...â Eve, Ji Jianingâs manager began.
Ji Jianing had been crying, which left two long trails of tears over her face as she promptly turned to Eve. âYou are leaving me too?â
Eve nodded, troubled. âYou understand, Jianing. I donât want that to happen, but the company told me to stay out of this. Itâs clear that they are giving up on you.â
âNo!â Ji Jianing rose to her feet and roared. âWhy would they? I signed a four-year contract! Iâm a up and coming star! I have so many, so many fans... I... Iâm popular!â
Eve sighed at length, but advise her earnestly, âThe company has said that the contract is annulled, but would pay you ten million in damages. Wake up, Jianing. What use is your popularity? Everyone is cursing you now! You made a mistakeâyou should never have had an affair with Jiang Zhuonan!â
âAt first, it was just about you and Li Shaoling, and then suddenly Jiang Zhuonan was dragged into it. His company is in a mess and their bosses had already come asking for blood. Itâs best for you to leave now, whatâs wrong with ten million?â
âNo! no!â Ji Jianing grabbed a flowerpot by the window and smashed it into the floor, screaming hysterically, âLin Xiaoman was protected when he was caught last time, but why wasnât I? My career has barely started, why are you treating me like this? Thatâs not what all of you said when I signed the contract!â
Shards of the pot and the soil within splashed all over, and Eve recoiled in fright.
Still, pressing her hand over her heard, her face turned cold. âJi Jianing, enough! This is not the Ji family which tolerates your whims! The company had provided you the best resources when you signed on, giving you the best public relations... even I had to tear up my contract with my former client to partner with you! And donât you know the backing Lin Xiaoman has? Do you have that?â
âI have Li Shaoling!â Ji Jianing yelled between sobs.
Her Shaoling would definitely save her.
